We print in another column the editorial OF
THE Sun ON the duty Of the Democracy in re-
spect to the Force bill. We do so because we
most heartily approve every word Of It, shd
We feel that 1t Ia so we'll said that 1t Is impos-
sible to enlarge upon it or improve It.
From the Lpachburo Esca
Those Democrats who imagine that the en-
actment OF the Infamous Force bill will hurt
the Republican party moro than the Dsmoc-
racy should read the article which We have re-
produced from THE UN to-day. The Force
bill gives the Republican party absolute con-
troll OF the election machinery throughout the
country: and II 1t becomes q law nothing

people to reposssss their liberties. Read what
The Sun says.

1t is the imperative duty OF the Democrats In
the Senate to kill the Force bill At any cost and
by any means that may be available. To avert
this deadly peril may require extraordinary
expedIents. but shame on the Democrat who
falters in his duty
Anything Is legitimate to ward of public
peril like this. The consummation OF such q
reasonable plot by Congress which the
people have already rspudiated and con-
demned with an emphasis that has no par

rule Of faith and practice. "Protes-
tant Christianity" he says, "builds It's
life and faith on the divine author
ity contained In the Scriptures, and
too often deprecates the Church and tho
Reason" "1he majority Of Christians from
the Apostolic ago have found COP through
tho Church" he further explains. II we
rightly interpret him therefore. his
contention Ii that tho Bible is only
ono Of three coordinate sources from
which TO obtain religious truth. and that its
elevation and separation from tho rest as
the sole authority make Of It a mere fetish.
Tho only authority to which man can yield
implicit obedience" says DR.. BRIGGS, is
"dlvine authority" and the fountain OF that
is not In tho Bible alone, but also In " the
Church and the Reason"
He finds fault with Protestant theology
on the further ground OF ITS Limitation OF
redemption to this world" and rejoices at
the present reaction against such doc
trine and the tendency toward tho con-
struction OF q theory OF q second proba-
tion. 1t Is this reaction which has stirred
up the Presbyterian laity to demand
tho revision of tho Westminster Comics
sion. Protcstantism generally would close
up tho gates Of hell finally and forever.
II rejects the old theory OF "a judgment
Immediately after death and Of .
magical transformation in the dying hour"
aud demands that tho buRbear "should be
banlshed from the world" The second pro-
bation DR.. BnIaas terms progressive sanc-
tilcation after DEATH" He tells us that "the
Bible does not teach universal salvation, but
It does teach the salvation Of the world"
Exactly what he means by that is not easy
to understand. The distinction that is In
his mind is not clear. II some are
to profit by the opportunity for progress
sive sanctification in the life to come. why
should tho privilege be denied to any? II
probation docs not end here. but extends
beyond, does not justice, or the reason Of
which DR.. BR1oos talks, require that It shall
be for all SOULS
What would have happened to the pro-
fessor OF Presbyterian theological school
who proclaimed such opinions as these even
twenty-five years ago? Would he have been
called up higher as DR.. BR1aos has been
called7 Would he not rather have been
driven from hts chair and his Church as
hereto. all the more dangerous because no
sought TO rest his case on reason and to ap-
peal to tho Judgment Of men?

the soene of trouble Is the Ranger, q
little one-gun craft, under Commander
e WMoArE, now at Corlnto, on the Pacific
ooost Of Nicaragua; but she will probably
b kept there. The swatsra. which belongs
to tho Asiatic station. is at San Frnucisco,
but needs repairs. The Thetis is also there.
but by tho time this slow-going old craft
could reach Chill, the troubles might have

enough going on along the vast coast be-

permanently divide the Pacific station into

Atlantic station. In like manner there
might we'll be South Pacific station. which
could also take In the coast Of Central

south Seas should be deemed insufficient to

the southern boundary Of Mexico to the
Arctic, or from the Isthmus northward, to-
gether with the Hawaiian Islands and other
groups, would then furnish adequate duties
for North Pacific station.

Tho Theology of DR.. Briggs.

The inaugural address Of Prot. CHARLES
A. BRIGGS on Tuesday evening was an hon.
est and, for q theoloRiau, very clear ex-
position of the principles Of Biblical oriti-
cism which will guide him In his teachings
from the new chair of tho Union Theological
Seminary into which he was then inducted.
The great applause Of the students when he
fose to speak, and during the course OF his
remarks, showed plainly that his courage
and his convictions command their respect,
and that tho more radical his views the
more grateful they are to these young can
didates for the Presbyterian ministry.
Ho is to teach hereafter Biblical theology,
instead Of the Hebrew language a. before,
and hence no will have far moro room for
impressing his opinions on the minds Of the
theologians of his own Church and for influ-
sDcing tho thought of the Protestant pulpit
generally; for it is made evident by tho
besrty commendaion OF him by Bishop
PoTTIl that DR.. BRI0Gs Is exercising q
power which extends far beyond the
lines OF Presbyterianism merely. He has
como to represent tho great contemporary
movement for theological revolution. which
started with the critical examination Of tho
Bible after the method Of reason and SCI
snce, and gained impulse from the Protes-
taut revolt against the doctrine Of hell.
Tho great aim of DR.. BRIGGS is to bring
The Bible, the Church. and the reason into
scoord. III GoD really speaks to men in
these three centres," he says, there ought
10 he no contradiction between them !" and
Il n his "profound conviction that We Arc ON
the threshold Of happy reconciliation"
A. . first stop toward that end he would
cast down the idol Of what he calls Bibliola-
try. He throws Aside the theory of verbal
inspiration as unworthy Of reasonable con-
sideration. He declares that there are un-
eKplsinable errors In the Scriptures: and
the miracles recorded, and which have
been used so long as convincing
Christian evidences, he treats as hav-
ing no value as mere violations of the
laws OF nature. The divine authority OF the
which critical reason must examine to See
whether " be OF GoD. The authority Is moi
In the individual writer's tho great mass OF
the Old Testament having been written by
nen whose names are unknown, but In the
divine truth expressed.
These views OF DR.. BRIGGS as to inspiration
seem to amount to no more than saying
that the Bible is inspired 30 far as 1t IL
true; but that might be said Of ans
religious book. They leave nothing OF thu
old theory that the Scriptures are the 70
corded Word Of Con. written by mer
