CROMWELL AND WASHINGTON.
Following are some OF heideas presented
by DR.. Gunsaulus in his lecture on "Crom-
we and Washingtun":
The fall Of the western end of the Roman
Empire meant the dissolution of Casarism.
When Rome fell there were two political
conceptions occupying the minds of men.
The OLD idea Of politics had one end on
earth, the other in heaven. This old idea
put tyrant in the heavens-Jupiter there.
Cesar here. Both of them were bosses.
might makes right" was their doctrine.
By the side Of that old idea stood the new
idea. High in the heavens sat the loving
father; here on earth the beloved son.
This Is the new doa-right Is always might.
The ten centuries that lie between the tall
OF the Roman Empire and our own time
form the battle-ground of these two ideas.
Pym was the John Adams, john Hampden
wa the Samuel Adams and Oliver CrUm-
We was the George Washington of Pnri-
We'll transforms defeat into victory. The
secret OF CromwePs success lies In what
he expresses when he says, Trust in God
and keep your powder dry" He teaches
Parliament its duty. A crown is offered
him. He will not be King, he will be
Lord Protector Of the realm. He finds that
Parli Iment no longer represents the people.
He dissolves it. He made the name of an
Englishman as great as that of Roman.
Cromwell is the worlds greatest English
man. Washington is the greatest, the no.
blest American. There is something about
Washington that makes him seem repre-
sentative of what is best in human nature.
DR.. Gunsaulus will probably lecture in
San Francisco.
