DEAR READERS God will warn

must pray to Jesus for the forgive
ness of your sins, and for the Holy
Ghost. If you belong to lodge
you must avoid that and take the
sacrament and get baptized if you
are not. In Revelation, chapter
fourteen, verse eleven, is the trial
for men who belong to q lodge.
And the smoke of their torment as
cendeth up Tor ever, and they have
no rest day nor night who worship
the beast and his image, whosoever
receiveth the mark of his name.
Psalms, chapter eleven, verse six:
Upon the wicked he shall rain
snares, fire and birthstone; this
shall be the portion OF their cup.
Second Peter. chapter three, verse
ten: But the day of the Lord will
come as thief in the night in the
which the heavens shall pass away
with q great noise and the elements
shall melt with fervent heat, the
earth also, and ali the works that
are therein shall be burned up.
Revelation, chapter twenty-one,
verse twenty-one: And the twelve

Honesty Above All Things,

The st. Louis convention presents to
the people candidate and principle. Of
the candidate they have already once re-
corded favorable judgment. The princi-
pie is now first put before them as the
dominant issue of national contest.
Against the denomination of President
Cleveland no dissenting voice has been
raised at st. Louis. In It's form and its
spirit, being made without call of states,
by shout of reclamation, amid scene
of extraordinary enthusiasm, and IL
response to a demand in which the
Democracy Of all the states have
joined, this denomination of Mr.. Cleve-
land is without precedent in the
history Of the country. He is called to
the candidacy by his party speaking with
"a single voice, and not only his own con-
spicuous merits and proved strength, but
lions justify the choice and constitute an
augury of triumph. Of presidents who
have been a second time put in nomina-
tion, Washington, Jefferson, Madison,
Monroe, Jackson, Lincoln, and Grant
were reelected, and only John Quincy
Adams and Martin Van Buren, failed of
reelection.
The principle which the convention pre-
sents for popular ratification is the hon
lest conduct Of the public business. This
principle is broader than civil service re.
form, 1t is broader than revenue reform.
1t includes them both and other reforms
with them. The dishonest conduct of the
public business includes the debasement
OF the Federal service through spells
seeking and spoils giving equally
with the exaction Of war taxes in
time of peace, not for the bene-
ft Of the whole people, but for
the enrichment of the protected
few. Both have been the policy and
the practice of the Republican party, and
by both the people are cheated Of their
public rights and their just private gains
The public business has been honestly
conducted by Grover Cleveland through
the administration which is now drawing
to its close, SO far as he was free, within
the limits of the executive power, to CON
duct 1t upon lines of policy laid down by
himself. Outside those limits, within a
sphere where the responsibility for well
or Ill doing belongs almost solely to the
national congress, lies the monstrous sys-
tenn of pillage by statute which the Re-
publican party has made it's own and is
organized to maintain and defend.-New
