lengthy editorial on equality, con-
demning 1.-The error that holds the race
in bondage to-day and has held it
through all the past, viz; that men
are not equal, that there is an ele-
mentary constitutional difference from
which rightfully arises all the distinc-
tons SC generally recognized i that the
difference in condition is the result of
radical superiority of individuals"
This talk about equality reminds the
writer of an observation of Henry
Ward Beecher in the course of lee
ture: "You often hear a person say,
4 am as good as the next man. WE'LL"
(said the old man eloquent, with an
effective pause), that depends on who
the next man is" All men are sup
posed to be equal before the. law, and
have equal rights, but there the equal
ity stops. If Bro. Byington will par
don the analogy, there never was lit

rights in theory, but in practice some
Of them planted all four feet in the

Thee is some little niche for the

ly says: There is difference between
the supporter of the party principle
and supporter of partisan. Every
paper in the state can faithfully rep
resent its party without falling into
the common error among newspapers
of becoming the representative of per-
sonal ambition. Primarily the paper
is business enterprise, and the in
slant it becomes the advocate of indi-
viduals it steps from a business enter
prise to an any-thing-to-live concern,

about heroic engineers who staid at their
posts and sacrificed their lives irving to
save others. When you show me one man
that takes those chances for humapitv's
sake, as they say, I'll show you a hundred
who staid just because they were too
scared to jump or didn't have time.

but he doesn't always have time to think

Certainty and Probability.

Moral certainty may be defined in a
rough way to be that degree of certainty
which is produced by preponderance of
the probabilities. Moral certainty is the
highest degree of certainty that it is pos
sible for the human mind to attain, except
perhaps in the exact sciences. In the
purely abstract sciences, those in which
conclusions are deduced by reasoning alone,
there is no such thing as absolute certainty,
and in what may not inappropriately be
denominated the mixed sciences there is
little If anything that can with truth be
affirmed to be morally certain
This is proved by the different views and
the changing theories of men eminent in
the medical world and by the conflict of
opinion which has existed, and is likely
always to exist, among the greater law
yers and the wisest judges and among the
greatest statesmen. The degree of prob
ability may be very great, great enough,
indeed, to produce firm conviction and vet.
after all, there is no absolute certainty.
Men must act upon probability, and he
who can best judge of the weight and force
OF probabilities is, in the practical affairs
OF life, the stronger and most successful of
men. If men acted only on absolute GER
tainty the affairs of life would be confined
NIIhAi d very HARROW compass. Inc range
of mems actions, aspirations and achieve
ments would be little wider than that of
the ant or spider if they waited until
demonstrative certainty enabled them to
proceed. Doubtless the torch of demonstra-
ton would better light the way than the
feeble lamp of probability, but we cannot
have the torch and we must move by the
light OF the lamp or else stand still.-Chief
Justice Elliott of Indiana.
