REFORMS.

This is an age of reform. There are
many things that need it, and there
are many people who talk about it.
but the need and the talk are both
greater than the rapidity with which
the reforms come The trouble is
that those who talk the most about
reform, and those who pose as re
formers, as ''watch dogs OF the treas
ury' as it were, are generally men who
do 1t for the purpose of pulling the
wool over the eyes Of the people so
that they can get a grip on the public
pap without being suspected of dis
honesty. The people have los, faith
in politicians, because so many Of
them have proved to be wolves in
Sleeps clothing, and hence it is that
he who enters public life with an hon
est desire to do his country some
good, does So with the suspicion rest
ing upon him that he is acting only
from selfish motives. and with the pur-
pose Of self-aggrandisement. Unfortu-
nately, this has been too often the
case. There are so many imitation
statesmen that it is hard to distin-
guish the true from the false.
The man who is an honest, earnest
advocate of reform is not found telling
how good he himself is, and how
wicked somebody else is. An honest
reformer does not run for office and
upon being defeated, constantly at.
tempt to injure his successful oppon-
ent by inventive and misrepresen-
tation. An honest reformer does not
cast discredit upon his political party
by repeated efforts to show that the
men who have been elected by that
party for public Office, are dishonest
rogues. An honest reformer does not
draw the lioe so closely that he classi-
fies all public officials who obey his
orders, as competent and capable pub
lie servants, and all who will not bow
down to him as the Supreme boss, as
incompetent, dishonest and disrepu-
table. He is only an imitation; aye.
worse than an imitation, he is dema-
gogue and ain impostor. And yet,
alas. how blindly the people some
times follow such an imitation states
man and reformer! He may be po-
litlcal and social leper he may have
been publicly accused of perjury, brib-
cry or worse; there are men upon
whom this seems to have no effect !;
they still stand by him, and uphold
him. Is it because there are too
many of the same kind?
There are reforms needed in the
Democratic party right here in this
county, but we cannot look to the pro-
fessional "watch-dogs' to accomplish
them. First, we want men to run for
Office who can do so upon their own
merits, and not merely upon the
strength of some faction whose candi-
dates they are. Second, we want
men to run for Office whose merits do
not depend upon the amount Of
money they spend for beer and whisk-
ey during the last week before the
county convention.
Third, we want men to be elected
who will wear no mans yoke after
they are installed in Office.
Fourth, we want honest politics and
in order to reach this desired result, We
must prosecute some of the boodlers.
and enforce the election laws. That
money is used unlawfuly in our pri-
mary elections, is a subject of con-
slant comment.
Fifth, we want nothing but straight
out, honest, reliable Democracy
Away with limitations. away with i'm
posters!

author OF Bliiv Bray
closely San it did that of the lay spectators
He referred to Methodists as the Quakers of the
olosy. saying that where they had fought it had
been as a result OF dire necessity and that
Methodism had produced comparatively few
puguacious writer's who would force their ideas
upon other churches. The church, he said. is
rapidly approaching the time when there will
be unity in all that is germiual to itself and he
urged closer unity in the church. Metnodism
could not become great power in the evange-
ization of the world until she closed the
breaches in her own ranks.
The strongest condemnation that could he
hurled at the subdivisions of the church is that
one or all is wandering away from the original
doctrines of John Wesley. He urged his hear
ers to aim at a doctrinal oneness and all things
else would be added to them. Especially was
unity a necessity in the work in the missionary
field.
DR.. Hunt of the Methodist Episcopal church
was the next speaker, the time limit having
been placed upon Mr.. Selby just before he had
concluded his remarks DR.. Hunt said in COM
mencing his address that it was we'll that one
day had been devoted to the consideration of
Methodism and the wonderful work that it had
accomplished Still they should humble them
selves to the memory that all is not as it should
be. and to pray that the future might be better
than the past
There is a distinct difference between union
and unity. There can be no Christian union
that does not recognize the fact that it grows
up out OF Christian unity. There may be unity
between believers. still there is a unity higher
than that which comes from the recognition that
tine unity OF the church GENES from a oneness
with Christ. The supernatural does not end
when we have found Christ forgiving God.
We must appreEend the unity of God and the
fact that we may dwell in Him
