TOLERANT AND SENSIBLE.

There were numbers of people who
went to hear "Pope BOB" worship at
the shrine of the great dramatist on his
late visit TO this city who, few years
ago, would have raised their palms in
pious horror had it been told them that
the time would come wher they would
listen i'll delight to his silvery flow of
speech upon any subject. Yet they saw
him stand in the sacred desk without a
shudder, and their palms came together
in plaudits at his mellifiuous and en-
tranclng periods. They do not yet take
him as prophet or theologian, but are
inclined to believe that he may have
been honest in FINDING mistakes in
certain early records OF marvellous
events. The world has made great
strides in tolerance in recent times.
The frequency of the cases in all
the denominations in which men of the
highest piety and scholarship have been
driven to think on other lines than
those of their schools, has led to more
generous consideration for those who
may be bewildered in the upheavaI of
old things. -An illustration of the grow
ing indiSposition to even seem lacking
in tolerance is noted in the action of the
instructors of Harvard college in invok-
ing, the dlScontinuance of the anti-Cath-
Olic lectures that have been required by
the DUDLEY bequest, made in 1850.
The proceeds of this fund were to be
used in all coming time to keep up
lectures ''fOr the detecting and convict
ing. anG exposing the idolatry of the
Romish church; tyranny, usurpation,
dam nable beresies. fatalierrors, abomi-
nable superstitionS, and other crying
wickedness in their high places" There
was nothing surprising in the max
ing OF such will century and half
ago. The feeling it shows was the
prevalent one among the descendants
of those who periled lives for the right
to think their own thoughts religiOusIy.
The evidence of religious zeal was
found in the intensity with which all
other denominations were hated. 1t was
not regarded as grave offense to re-
ligiOus propriety to disturb Quakers or
break stained windows in churches.
These were then looked upon assatanic
begullementS. This lesson of tolerance
has been harder to get woven into the
religious thought than any other. In ne
other age in historic times has it come
to be recognized as the right of the indi-
yidual to erect his own creed and preach
it if any one will hear. The other ages
had good qualities, but religious tolera-
tion was not conspicuous among them.

If THERE was solitary member of
the Minnesota legislature who refused
to take railroad pass, as alleged, there
must have been still less of the moral
stamina that used to save ancient cities
in the Wisconsin legislature. The men,
bers of that body are charged with abb
sorbing $4,000 passes during the session.
A man was kept at the capitol whose
only business it was to take the orders
from the members, who furnished them
to all their constituents who wanted to
travel. the deadheads at times exceed
ing the regular travel. No laws to an
noy the railroads were enacted. The
people who neglected to apply for
passes are very indignant.

The decision of Judge CALDWELL, of
the United States circuit court, that the
stipulations in life policies in case of sui
eide will not stand III the face of state
enactments, is quite reasonable, and
should be the prevalent rule. To es-
cape payment the companies should be
able to show that the insurance was
taken with a view to suicide. Cases
must be rare when person deliberately
would perpetrate fraud on the COM
pany and go out of the world for the.ad-
vantage of others financially.

PRESIDENT HARRISON displayed a
streak of good sense when, in his most
courteous language, he said the Repub-
licans in Nebraska played the glaring
fool act in ousting the Democratic gov
ernor by the vote of the two RepubIi-
can members of the court on a technical
quibble. without deliberation or con-
sultation with the other member of the
court. There was only partisan reason
for pressing the case, and it will no
doubt prove costly blunder to the Re-
publican party of that state.

home for man forty or fifty years with
