jurisdiction of the Territory have diff.

some holding that it included beer, and
one. the other day, that it did not.
Secretary of the Interior thinks 1t Is

missioner of Internal Revenue to pre-
vent the admission of any more beer

not yet decided what, if any, steps he

tary has directed that all packages of

week, a farmers Alliance man, If not

1t is claimed by the Alliance mel that
their numbers and their direct interest
in matters pertaining to Inter State
Commerce entitle them to be represent
ed upon the Inter State Commerce
Commission, and they will be support
ed by a number of influential republic
cans who believe it would be good poll
tics for Mr.. Harrison to publicly recog-
nize the Alliance, and if the Alliance
man selected be also a democrat it is
not thought that the members Of that
party would do much kicking, as they
are particularly DESTROYS just at this

The officials of the National farmers
Alliance say that there is no truth in
the charge that Senator PETER has been
disappearing the mortgage indebted
ness of Kansas, and they have obtained

These figures give the mortgage indebt-

1t is figured by the New York Press
that the people of the United States

''saved more than 1858 ,000,0 600 to con-
sumers in this country" thereby reduc-
ing the cost of living not far from one
dollar each for every man, woman and
child in this county.-So. Jerseymaa.

METHODIST DOCTRINE and
DISCIPLINE.
Repentance.

Rev. D. W. c. McIntire preached
from the following text last Sunday
evening:
"Repent ye, for the Kingdom Of
HeaveB is at hand. Matt 3:2.
The Bible is full of this subject. 1t
could not be other wise, for it treats OF
man as a sinner. It's mission is to
show the sinner the way to God, and
it places repentance at the beginning
of the way that lea Is back to God. 1t
is of necessity, therefore, that the BIZ
BILE should abound with celebrations to
Repent" with Instructions concern.
ing the nature of repentance, and with
illustrations of repentance. In study
ing the Bible on this subject we learn
/. That all man must repent. Acts
1870; Luke 24:47. This is in harmony
with the doctrine of universal SINFUL
ness. as ''all have sinned and come
short of the glory of God" So all
must repent. We are also taught that
we must repent as often as we sin.
Every act of sin separates from God.
Repentance must be the bridge by
which we cross the open chasm back to
his favor. Peters fall aud repentance
an example.
2. We also learn that the power to
repent is the gift of God. Acts Ills;
Acts OBI, Man by nature is blind to
sin. He loves it. The spirit of God,
reveals the true nature of it. Creates
IA hatred of sin in us. 2 Cor. 10. Re-
pentance is sorrow and remorse on ac
count of Sin itself, not on account Of
its consequence. Sin is opposition to
God, for that reason we should loathe
it.
). We learn that Repentance in
cludes. (a) Conviction of the fact that
Sin is III lis, Psalm 5l:3 ~ Conviction
of the nature of Sin. Isa. G4:6. (c) Self
abhmence because of our participation
in 1t. (d) Remuneration of sin. Luke
3:S; 1914. Eek. 1890. job 42:6 etc.
The Scriptures present various exam
pies OF Repentance. Some spurious,
as in The case of Cain. Genesis 40 IA
and of Judas, Matt. 27:3,5. Genuine as
Zaccheus and Peter. Luke 1913, Matt.
26:75.
4. Repentance alone does not secure
salvation. Only pardon can cancel sin,
and restore us to our place in the fam
lily of Gcd. The prodigal son, came to
himself, because penitent and humble
as lie reflected upon his evil course to-
ward his father, resolved to atone If
possible, for his evil, by faithful service
among his fathers hired servants hut
he was not restored until his father,
seeing his penitence, ignoring his tran,
erosion, embraced him, and said.
"This my son was dead. aud is alive
again hr was lost and is found.n Luke
15:1l.32
Repentance h,"s hoi save us, hut it
puts IT'S ia II cord ton that excites the
divine compassion, a'ui thus makes
our salvation possible. "Rrp+ni yo.'

Washington Letter.

Washington, d. c. Aug. 26, '9l.
Ex.R Representative Hare, of Texas, is
in town and he is full of interesting talk
about things of national Importance.
file says Governor Hogg is afraid to Call
an extra session of the legislature on
account of the Senatorial situation, al.
though the people are mostly in favor
of one. He says also that Represents
tive Mills cannot be elected to the SEN
ate because Of his having too many Bit
ter enemies in the State, and that, he
thinks, Judge CulbertsOn would be the
next Senator from Texas, if he wants
the place, whether the election be at an
extra or a regular session of the legisla-
ture. This, II true, puts a spoke in the
wheel Of the scheme which has been
much talked of here to get Mills elect
ed to the Senate at an extra session of
the legislature, in order TO get him out
of the SpeSkership fight.
BY the way, speaking of the Speaker
ship, "a Tammany democrat who is
credited with knowing whereof lie
speaks, says that the twenty three dem
ocrats of New York have been polled
on the ~Speakership, that M of them is
for Mills, six for McMillin, and sixteen
for Crisp. AS the unite rule will be
observed at the caucus, with the excep-
ton of Representative Tracy who Ie-
fuses to be bound thereby and who will
vote for Mills, Crisp will get twenty
two of the votes.
Secretary Noble is again Oh hand,
and lie is kept busy in denying that he
