THE NEW YORK REPUBLICANS.

The nomination of Warner Miller at Sar- atoga yesterday was much after the pat tern of that of Morgan G Bulkeley at Hart ford It had been discounted ill advance; cut and dried and hung up, and there was not even semblance of opposition The republicans are working that way this year; the bosses have formed trust, private affair with which there is no right of inter ference, and the voters meekly ante up. Miller was put up on deal which retains Tom Platt in control of the machine. Mil Ter is a high tariff man, especially on wood-pulp the bounties on which have made him wealthy. His record in the United States senate shows him to be an animated moneybags with a narrow con ception of public affairs. He will be pie made easier for the latter by his nomi- | nation.
 The platform is cross between joke and a humbug. The sheet anchor is high license and that's where the joke comes in. The Chicago platform | Wn1cn Is endorsed, wants Tree WnlSkeN, ana ''the real leader of the party says that free whiskey would destroy high license at once in all the states. The prohibition whale will swim off from this republican tub The humbug of urging a thorough revision of the immigration laws, which in the hands of republican com missioners are openly and continuously violated, is thin skinned and will deceive nobody. Altogether the platform is fitted to the size of the wood pulp candidate and both will be pie for the democrats.
 Governor Hill, it seems almost positive will be the candidate of the democracy and he will be the next governor of New York. His popularity in the state is very great, and his nomination will be equiva, lent to his election. The people of New York are to be congratulated that the action of the republican party yesterday al Saratoga assures them another year of good democratic government.

 and Diamond AmuletS.
 rich baby's layette, says the New York Sun, now costs $500 or s6OO, and includes soft silk warp tannels handsomely en- brodered, tinc-knitted shirts of snowy wool, beautiful handwrought dresses, not frilled and heavy with embroidery and lace as formerly, but made of the finest French nainsook, tucked and hemmcd by hand. with rows of drawn work as fine as lace and pretty stltchings of briar work in fino floss, all wrought by hand, with real lace edges Of narrow Nalcnciennes, and costing, plaln and simple as they arc, sometimes $50, $6O and S15. A wrapper, shawl and little sacQue of fine silk flannel, embroidered with forget-me-nots in the delicate blue of the natural flowers, or cloak of heavy, white silk, wrought with the same fine briar sutchlngs in silk rows on rows, Q little close cap of the same material, en- broidercd all over with tiny silk sprays and tiny SIken socks of pretty tints arc included in the layettc, which is as dainty as a mothers loving fancy can design. The baby basket is mass of lace, frills and ribbons and thin muslin, lined with pretty Satln or slleSla, and costs all tho way from S5 to S5O The basinet, or cradle, is anot her pretty bauble of brass or willow, white en- ameled, canopied with satin and lace, and with linen furnishings hem stitched as finely as lady's 'kerchief and covered with q soft silk quilt of down.
 One noted baby born in New York not long ago had cradle of mother-of- pearl in the shape of sea shell, with legs and handle of solid gold, lined with amber satin and with canopy of satin and rare old lace falling from a gold framework and sweeping the floor. The linen was hand stitched and edged with real lace by the far hands of the happy mother. Five sets Of diamond buttons, six gold rattles, solid silver toilet set, solid gold safety pins, dia- mond amulets and rings enough to cover every little finger and toe were among his baby presents.
 Then there's the christening and robe which costs from S10O to S1, 900, mass of rich lace and fine stitching, sometimes made of point lace, and, like wedding dress, worn at the ceremony and never worn again.

THE output of the coal mines now amounts to about million tons week, and the advance just made on the retail price means about $40,000 more each day in the pockets of the Pennsylvania coal barons. The production is regulated by a coal pool or trust, which, according to Blaine, is largely private affair with which neither President Cleveland nor any private citizen has right to interfere. How do the laboring people like this trust business?

themselves on the defensive. The vigorous whirl which the president gave them on the fisheries subject furnished them brief breathing spell by allowing them to switch off from tariff matters. The bloody shirt has been brought from its closet, its clot- ted knots smoothed out and the garment is being waved vigorously for time.
 This kind of statesmanship, this switch ing off on the side track and shirking of issues went do. The people want re duction of the surplus, a cut down of taxes, and more equal distribution of protec- tion benefits.
 Tariff reform has come to stay; high taxes must go.

THE CHRISTIAN LAW OF FAITH.
BY REV. WM TUCKER, d, d.
Mt Gilcad, %


Christ and his apostles have, in their
teaching, given great prominence 10
faith as a necessary and essential
element in all true religious worship
and practice. They teach us that with
out faith It's impossible to please God. -
s'He that comes TO God must believe
that he is, and that ne is arewarder of
those who diligently seek him. This
shows faith to be a necessary principle
in all religion. True worship is i'm
possible without it. We are also
taught: THAT we walk by faith and
not by sight. This shows that it is
necessary in all practical life. "Ye
are saved by faith" "Ye are saved by
grace through faith, and that not of
yourselves, it is the gift of God" In
this divinely inspired statement, grace
is made the cause, and faith the con-
dition of salvation. We are justified by
faith. "Being justified by faith we
have peace with God through our Lord
Jesus Christ" Faith is the condition
of mans Justification, pardon, forgivi-
ness of sins and reconciliation, accord
ing to Christian teaching.
Faith is necessary to successful
prayer. 1.-The prayer of faith will save
the sick" Whatsoever ye ask of
the Father in my name with faith,
nothing doubling, it shall be granted
unto you" Faith is here declared to
be an essential element 10 prevailing
prayer. 1t is faith that sweetly works
by love and purifes the heart. "What
is not of faith id sim Christianity
thus teaches the supreme Importance
Of faith in all religion, all pure worship,
all Christian morals, aad all spiritual
obedience. There can be no Christian
life and character withJuJit.
But what constitutes faith. Faith
embraces the ascent Of the mind, the
consent Of the wilt, aud the trust,
OF confidence, of the heart. II is the
complex result of the united action
of the intellect, emotions and will IL
is q rational, moral and spiritual move.
ment Of the soul. 1t receives as true
a rational proposition, trust Or cOnides
in a living person, aud acts IN reference
to this proposition and this person.
Faith is necessary to the action Of the
conscience, the affections and will in the
ethics Of practical life. The nature Of
man is fitted for it, and his life de-
mands it.
1t is the only medium through
which one rational, moral and spiritual
person can teach, help, benefit, comfort
d save another. Absolute skepti-

cism end universal doubt would cut us
off from the whole universe Of rational,
moral and spiritual persons. 1t des-
troys the bridge between every human
soul and ourselves. 1t would place the
soul where no human or divine hand
stretched out to save could reach it. 1t
it would blind the intellect to the true,
the conscience to the right, and the
heart to the good. Without faith the
soul would be dead to truth, beauty, love,
goodness and righteousness. Society,
the family, the home, the state, the
nation, could not exist without it. 1t
is as necessary to the existence of
science, philosophy, art, language, law,
and morals, as it is to the existence Of
religion. Without it education and
commerce would be as impossible as
worship.
Faith in God and man, truth and duty,
the right, the beautiful and the good,
is necessary to all human progress aud
civilization. IT uuderlles all the rela-
tions, interest and enjoyments Of life,
and its constant exercise is demanded
by all our social, domestic business as
well as by our religious life.
The Christian law of faith, as does
every other part OF ths teaching Of
Christ, meets the wants and supplies
demand of mans nature. 1t comes
into play in all cur mental, social,
moral, business and religious activity.
1t moves along all the lines Of enter
prise, work, usefulness, trade, com
merce, religion and enjoyment. 1t is
the tie that binds man and man, God
and man, heaven and earth, together.
1t is the great law Of spiritual gravIta-
ton that brings into union God, men
and angels.
