read? What shall it be, children? Aged
men and women, what shall it be? Young
men and maidens, what shall it be? If you
dared to break the silence of this auditory,
there would come up thousands of quick
and jubilant voices crying out: "Let it be
Jesus! Jesus!"
We sing His brth-the barn that shell
tered Him, the mother that nursed Him,
the cattle that fed beside Him, the angels
that woke up the shepherds, shaking light
over the midnight hills. We sing His min
istry-the tears He wiped away from the
eyes CT the orphans; the lame men that
forgot their crutches; the damsel who from
the bier bounded out into the sunlight, her
locks shaking down over the flushed cheek;
the hungry thousand who broke the bread
as it blossomed into larger loaves-that
miracle by which q boy with five loaves
and two fishes became the sutler for q
whole army. We sing His sorrows-His
stone- bruised feet, His aching heart, His
mountain loneliness. Ills desert hunger,
His storm pelted body, the eternity of
anguish that shot through His last mo-
ments, and the Unreasonable ocean of
torment that heaved up against His cross
in one foaming. wrathful, omnipotent
surge, the sun dashed out, and the dead,
shroud- wrapped, breaking open their
sepulchers, and rushing out to see what
was the matter. We sing His resur-
rection-the guard that could not keep
Him; the sorrows of His disciples; the
clouds piling up on either side in pillared
splendors Us He went through, treading
the painless air, higher and higher, until
He came to the foot of the throne, and all
Heaven kept jubilee at the return of the
Conqueror.
1 say once more, that Christ is the
everlasting song. The very best singers
sometimes get tired; the strongest throats

Intcmperance in Ireland.

The following has been circulated as a
postal card in Ireland:
The clergy being determined not to re-
nounce their moderate quantity of intoxi-
eating drink, teetotalism must not be SO
much as named, even in, the advertising
columns of any Irish newspaper. Tenn
perance, however, may be applauded. and
intemperance condemned.
The adamantine barrier which prevents
the progress Of teetotalism, and conse-
quently keeps vast multitudes buried in
misery, degradation, and sin, is the clergy
mans daily moderate quantity. o, if they
would, for the love of God, and of souls
dearer to His sacred heart than his life,
turn deaf ear to doctors and other fiat
terers and embrace teetotalism, one of the
numberless blessings which would speed
lily follow would be wonderful improve
ment in their own health.
Any one in Ireland who calls himself o
spiritual guide of the people, and who
does not see the necessity for practicing
and preaching teetotalism, must be very
blind indeed; and such blindness causes
continual intense sufferings of every de-
scription to the Irish race.

Editorial Note.

A popular sketch of Ohio.-Alexander
Blacks "Story OF Ohio" the second in
the series Of popular American histories
to be known as the "Story of the States," !"
is to be issued in few days by the d.
Lothrop Company Of Boston. The pub
lication of this work at this stage Of
Ohio's centennial celebration is at once
timely and suggestive. If the book bears
out the promise of the publishers an.
nouncement all loyal Ohioans will GER
tainly welcome and approve it. A desire
to popularize American history seems to
have prompted this new series and this
is to be esteemed as one Of the bsst signs
of growing public interest in some
thing more than the mere froth of litera-
ture. Indeed the increasing interest in
anything bearing upon our national
story is refreshing indication Of the
peoples progress.
The "Story of Ohio,"-which II is
claimed has been told by Mr.. Black in a
manner at once picturesque, graphic
and practical-may, If this shall prove
the case, be made one Of the pleasantest
mementos of this most historic year in
Ohio's record Of steady advance.

LABOR lN rHg sourH.

Tho Democratic Party Not the Friend q
tho Working Glasses, In That Section, 81
Least,
Mr.. Barry has just returned from trip
through the South, where he paid particular
attention to the industrial situation. In
some sections the working-men, who arc
mostly negroes, orc paid the most meager
wages-so low in fact that tho old slave
holders and capitalists prefer the present
situation to the slave-holding regime. The
evolutionary effects Of generations Of bond
nge, the lack Of education, race prejudice,
and the want Of industry and enterprise on
the part Of the ruling class, have operated
TO the repression of what Ia nominally FREQ
labor In the South. The dominant class do
not, says the Cleveland Leader, desire the
elevation Of labor in the South to the INTEL
lgent, self-rcspecting, well-patl plane 1t has
achieved in tho North.
The ruling class in the South is composed
exclusively Of white Democrats. They not
only rule the South, but also the Democrat
ic National party. They constitute large
majority Of tho Democratic party in Con-
gress and in the Electoral College. The
Democratic party, which pretends to be the
friend OF working-men, is absolutely con-
trolled in its National policy by its Southern
element, which shamefully oppresses labor
in the South and is straining every effort to
secure the adoption of iow-wages tariff
applying 10 all parts Of the country. Not
content with keeping Southern labor in po-
litical and industrial subjection they have
aimed destructive blow at the well-paid
labor Of the North, and have bullied
Northern Democrats into supporting their
scheme. They seek 10 destroy the policy
of protection which enables Northern
working-men to earn good wages and se-
cure steady employment They desire to
level down the condition Of Northern labor
until it approximates that of the South. They
unitedly resist every effort to educate and
improve the condition Of Southern labor.
Every working-man who votes the Demo
cratic ticket should be able to see by this
ttne that the ruling element and tendency
of tho Democratic party is opposed TO the
best interests Of labor. Every working-man
who brings an intelligent ond candid mind
to the investigation and contemplation Of
this subject will In the end say with Mr..
Barry that "if the condition Of the laborinR
people Of the South to-day, which has been
under Democratic rule for 10 many years,
is any indication Of what continued Demo
cratic control would bring to the country
we want no more Of it."

Some Good Advice.

"If Ben Harrison will just push his little
apple cart to one side and let the Gresham
procession move on he will do his country .
great service"-St. Louis Globe Democrat.
This is not Q reasonable and persuasive
thing for great Republican newspaper to
say, says the Cincinnati Commercial Gozstte,
commenting on the above. The belief Of
Mr.. Harrison's friends that they could carry
Indiana for him Is one entitled to the most
respectful consideration. They tell M, and
give reasons for 1t, that they could carry In
diana for Harrison and could not carry IL
for Gresham. It would be easy to state the
grounds Of this opinion, but we prefer MOTT
sntsgonize any Republican candidate for
the Presidency. There has been no Repub-
lican named for the place who is not better
than any Democrat who could be named.
Some weeks ago we said some things in
tended to convey the business opinion that
Gresham could not harmonic all the Re
publican factions, and even this mild form
Of administering to the wants Of the public
was understood by sensitive people to be
personal hostility to Gresham, though 1t was
not meant to warrant that Interpretation.
Now we admit that 1t seems likely he will
be the second man on the first ballot, Sher-
man being the drst; but we do not doubt
that three-fourths Of the votes from Penn,
sylvsnia, New York and New England
would 60 for Sherman a. against Gresham,
and that they would 60 for Harrison before
they would take Gresham. The time seeml
to be approaching for moderation IN candid

Presidential Possibilities.

The staid old independent paper, the
Philadelphia Telegraph, states the probabili-
ties Of the Presidential election this fall very
clearly when it says: "The Democrats have
made up their minds that they are assured,
ly going to re-eiect Mr.. Cleveland. They
have no doubt about it. They are certain Of
New York, and with the thirty-six electoral
votes Of that State they contend defeat il
impossible. They are mistaken. The Re
publicans can give them New York and still
elect their candidate. II they can carry
either Indiana and New Jersey or Connect
cut and Indiana. they can defeat Mr.,
Cleveland and return to power. That is not
impossible. Indiana is not an assured Dem
ocratic State; it is as doubtful a one as there
is in the Union, and it has more than once
since 1884 given indications that it is q
Republican State, or, at least, strongly in
ciined to be one. New Jersey has given
like indications; and there Il every reason
TO believe that, il the contest is energetical-
ly pushed in these two States, they can be
carried by the Republicans. II they can be,
