me church,s opportu nity.


Ii there is one thing that is clear. it l.
that the people in general are no Longer
interested in mere doctrinal theology a
they used to be. 1t is proved by the
popularity Of those preachers who tall
little to their fiocks about creeds and
doctrines, but much about humanitarian
ism and leading social and economic
questions. Life is SO hard ana SO cruel
in our time, so much is required of us. and
we want some one to tell us how to meet
the lions which stand ready to devoui
Ms here and now at this moment. There
Is so much. SO very much, to be met and
fought now which our grandfather
never thought Of
Recognizing this fact, one of the speak.
ers at the recent Methodist Ecumenical
council declared that the position OF
Methodism in the next century depended
largely on that church's attitude to the
labor question today. The pastors Of
any and all the churches have it in then
power to help solve the questions that
vex the working people. 1t is no longer
the time to council patient endurance OF
troubles which the history Of mankind
shows man can remedy by his own
gumption. They can be remedied in
peaceable, just ways too. Pastors might
study with care economic science and
the labor question from all standpoints.
In some cases already preachers have
carefully informed themselves. and then
given lectures to their people on social
questions, and the audience hall was
always crowded. If the churches will
go into the labor question in the large,
all around way that the founder Of
Christianity would do if he were here on
earth again. they could help more than
any other agency now in existence
They ought to do it.

Spreading Contagion.

Diphtheria and scarlet fever have
ragged with especial violence in many
localities the past summer and the pres
emit winter. One peculiar fact is that
they have been more prevalent and
deadly in several country districts than
in the cities. The contagion from them
has spread more widely. the mortality
has been greater. The same is true Of
typhoid fever. which. although not con
|stagious in one sense, is certainly apt to
spread through family or neighbor.

Physicians attribute much of the IA

Adyices from Poland are to the omi-
nous effect that General Gourko has
returned to Warsaw and brought with
him imperial permission to declare
that city, and all of Poland if neces-
sary, in state of siege. The full
meaning Of Russian rule in Poland is
indicated in Gourko's avowed inten-
ton Of hanging dozen of the princi-
pie Polish citizens who are unfriendly
to Russian rule. Yet the policy of
repression which served its purpose a
quarter of a century ago may prove
