young man told the pretended officer what
his business was, but the man insisted that
unless he paid the money he would take him

down and searched him, taking from
him his private letters and slso some
belonging to the state Reologist, Spencer.
After going through them they threw every
thing out OF the wagon. Finding that they
could not get the $25 the man said: PAY
us $40 and we will let you Off, for we are
bound TO have money" Ivey refused to
pay any money. and they left. After leav-

Law and Liberty.

Dangerous public nuisances which
have their origin in apathy or selfish
ness, or are sustained by ignorant law.
lessness, must be dealt with and sup
pressed by common law or by laws en-
acted for this purpose.
This is not only the object and es
sence of all law, but law is the only
means that society can put in operation
for its protection and security. In q
civilized society liberty is only made
possible by the enactment and enforce
ment of just law; therefore without
law all the elements of society would
be but confusion and anarchy. While
liberty is one of the most essential ele.
ments of our civilization, the dearest
and even the highest prerogative of ouI
humanity, yet even the dignity and
desira bleness of liberty must not be
perverted to mean lawless license to
the worst forms of oppression or the
support and encouragement of the most
vicious, degrading evils. like the liquor
traffic.
Liberty has its chief advantages and
security, therefore, when protected by
Just law; so that the restraints of law
become the basis of our security and
all the benefits of civilization, but more
especially the security for our liber.
ties; and this includes all the various
phases of law, and the only security for
life. liberty and the pursuit of happi.
ness" and the whole is included in the
axiom, Liberty to make law, and law
to protect liberty"

noting pictures on page 461.
Turn to I'll where you will see
the great Spurgeon. Note what
is, and can be said of him as a
great reformer. Turn to page
1852.
Note well the spirit in which all
of these articles are written, and
reflect on them, and the purposes
and motives that actuate the
authors, and the publishers Of
them. Now turn to page 78G

advocating the use and sale of such

the churches, and wherever they
found a preacher who voted with

Then l think he would thrust
out all who passed the bread and
wine on Sunday, aud retail liquor
out of their back doors on the
same day.
1 don't know that 1 have any
membership in any Baptist church
now.
1 could have; but if 1 were te
