rHE CARsoH mINT

The Reno Journal says there is weep
ing and waiting and "cussing" the Ad-
ministration 81 Carson. An order from
the Treasury Department stops the coin
age Of silver and reduces the Mint force
ct the capital Of Nevada. This will throw
several persons out Of employment and
restrict the circulation Of coin several
thousand dollars per month in that city.
This is one Of the effects Of the Sher-
man Commodity Act Of last July, which
the Carson papers and, in fact, every Re-
publican paper in the State, insisted DUR
ing the campaign last Fall was better
than free coinage, and which doubtless
very many Of their readers believed.
That Act leaves il to . great extent dis
cretionsry with the Treasury Department
whether the coinage Of 81. 900, 600 or any
part Of that amount shall be coined
monthly, and that Department decides
that no more silver shall be coined in
Nevada ct present.
This is the reward Nevada receives for
placing Republican success above the
prosperity Of the State. A year ago,
when Q silver convention, composed
largely Of business men from sll parts Of
the State, was held at Carson, not an en-
ploye Of the Mint or Of the Virginia and
Truckee railroad participated in the pro-
ceedings or countenanced the convention
in any way, because it declared for free
coinage or nothing. The Mint men kept
away because the Administration was
opposed to free coinage, and the railroad

CASTE.

God made one happy pair from whom sprang
all of every nation;
No man can claim higher birth whateer his
rank or station:
No patent Of nobility can alter his condition
He only is nobleman who nobly acts his
mission.
The humble man whose brawny hands are
hard with honest labor
Is, in Gods Judgment, far above his vicious,
lordly neighbour
And she who IN the poor mans home does
earnestly her duty
AS wife and mother, ranks above useless
royal beauty.
God made US all, just as we are; one common
blood He gave us;
He left uncurbed the human will and only
Titles and rank were made by man: but Death
sets all things even
To pauper and to king alike six feet of earth
is given.
Then how absurd for us to boast of blood. and
caste and classes,
When man In virtuous deeds alone his fellow
man surPasses:
Gods law in spite Of human rules this princi-
pie evinces-
That right is right, and wrong is wrong, with
paupers and with princes.
The vicious man of rank and ease, the con-
scienceless despoiler,
VINO treat with Scorn and froWu upon and
rob the honest toiler
May feel secure from censure when their crea-
lures defy them,
But what will the verdict be when the Infinite
shall try them?
They find that Heaven win set at naught all
titles, rank and treasure
The truth and right and honest worth will
only meet the measure:
Each man must answer for his deeds in spite
of rank and splendor-
Inc higher in the social scale, the greater the
offender.
There is monitor who guides the richest and
the poorest.
And ne will win the highest prize whose record
here is purest
Brothers we are-the children of one Father
and Protector;
AND Death, the stern-5rowed monarch, is OF
persons no respecter.
Naked we came, naked we go, when our brief
stay is over,
And rank and titles will not move the RIGHT
eous, just Jehovah.

The New Orleans PicGyatne saws: ga
great many men to-day look at Christi
anity as a thing of theory. If it is a
building of moral ethics deduced from
teachings of its founder, appealing for its
confirmation to the conscience of human
ity, it is to be received because it is good.
Or, If it be regarded as system of meta
physical theorems deduced from nature,
philosophy, and the judicious interpreta-
ton OF Scripture, appealing for its con-
nrmatlon to human reason, it is to be re-
ceived because it is probable. Buf the
Christianity OF the New Testament and of
the historic church is nothing of the sort.
IL IS no theory at all. 1t is not matter
OF metaphysics, but it claims to be su-
pernatural and supra-rational truth con-
hrmed by explicit and historical narra-
tlves received as fact from the time of the
events TO the present, and to-day so held
by great body of the earth's most en-
hghtened inhabitants. Vital to the Chris
tian religion as is the fact of the birth and
mln1stration of its founder it is incon-
celyably more important to hold to the
fact OF His resurrection after death That
is the foundation stone of the church. The
resurrection must be accepted as fact.
There can be no question that this is the
position taken by the founders of Christi
anity, nor any shadow Of doubt that this
is the point Of attack selected by the
shrewdest opponents of Christianity to-
day. Huxley and Ingersoll, ct id genuS
oanne, strike straight at this every time.
And here is where the Newtons and
MacQuearys and Lyman Abbotts are do
ing the religion that they profess to be-
i1eve and to teach the greatest possible
harm. In giving away the fact for which
Easter stands, they cut the cable of faith
that anchors the church to gertrude, and
allow her to drift hopelessly into the
breakers of speculation on the sands of
doubt"
