special privileges to the rich and power
full. Since governments are instituted
and maintained by man, there must be
some characteristic In man which leads
to the perverslon of government. The
thoughtful re6der will not have to study
long to find these characteristics. They
flourish under various forms, but have one
common root, selfshness. We can trace
all oppression, injustice and inhumanity
practiced under the guise Of government
or otherwise to the sel6shness of man.
By selhshness I mean disposition to
obtain such things as we desire without
earning them; disposition to obtain the
products of labor from our fellowmen
without giving full value for them.
The injustice and immortality Of these
actions remain the same, whether it ap-
pears in private relations between men,
or under the forms of legislative govern
ment. We can snalyzs any wrong or
crime, and we will lind It's source in a
desire to obtain something without CIV
ing value for It, The man who brutally
murders his victim in order to obtain his
money, is simply trying to get some
thing without earning it. The forger
who deceives his victims In order to OBJ
tain their money is prompted by the
same impulse, but decides on a more re-
fined method of carrying out his inten-
tions. The banker or business man who
by years of apparently honest dealings
acquired the confidence of the commun-
ity only to betray 1t when opportunity
offers, is another example of the same
principle. So are the men who plan and
carry out schemes for obtaining money
unjustly by legislative privileges.
We make the following deductions
then: Man has moral nature and is
governed by moral laws. His real we'll
being and happiness depends on his be-
ing in harmony with moral law.
The substance of the moral law is to
love our fellowmen and deal justly with
them. This appeals to the conscience OF
everyone, proving that we are created
with an innate faculty which impels us to
accept the truth. The most depraved
men, who in practice violate this law
every day, will readily admit that this is
so. The violation Of this law brings evil
results, misery and suffering.
Physical sufferings of all kinds, the
deplorable conditions Of which this re-
form movement attempts to remedy, can
all be traced to the violation Of this NOR
al law.
To provide remedy for the existing
evils without recognizing these evils will
prove a sad failure. We must recognize
that our government is just what the
people mhke H.
This is unquestionably true. But /
doubt the statement that our government
is a fair representation Of our people, be-
cause very large portion Of the better
class of people do not take any active in
terest in politics; for this reason our
government is much worse than the
average of the people. The extremely
selfish sentiments have been so dominant
In politics that many Of the better class
Of people refrain from taking any part
in 1t. The most unblushing lying and
deception is commonly practiced, chsrac-
ter DETAINED, actions distorted, willful
falsehoods told about opponents, 30 that
many good and honest men have lost all

mental principles common TO all rellg-
ions, upon which We propose to build.
We live in a world that, as far as we
have lnvestigated,is governed by law and
order. Everywhere we find certain re-
suits flow from certain actions. The
stars move In their orbits in obedience
to the law of motion and gravitation, so
that their courses can be foretold for
hundreds of years by those versed in as
tronomy. Minerals form in conformance
with the laws Of crystalizstion, or &C.
cordlng to chemical action. Plants have
their laws Of growth, the possibilities Of
their development being contained in
the seed. Man has aptly been called the
crown of creation. The bible says: sand
God created man in His own image, and
gave him dominion over everything on
earth" The superiority of man over an
imals is in his mind, not In the body. AS
far as we know, man is the only being
who can reason with himself, and decide
a course of action according to reason
and conscience. Man Is the only being
Of whom we say, he has acted right, or
he has done wrong. The belief that man
has a moral nature, that he can act right
or wrong, is 80 ingrafted in all our con-
ceptions that it needs no argument to
prove it.
In ma".ers of detail men will some
times honestly differ about certain &C
tions being right or wrong, but all are
agreed that no one has a right to injure
another one. The golden rule must be-
come a rule of action in politics, and ap-
piled to economic questions, before any
nation can ever reach its full develop
ment.
We observe, then, that the Supreme
Power isone of law and order; thatit works
for righteousness, by implanting In every
human heart sense of right and wrong.
This ability to discern right and wrong
is the highest attribute of man. There
fore our thoughts and actions ought to
be governed and controlled by conscience.
The question, is 1t right? ought to be the
first question asked and answered. If
we do not use this high gift, or act con-
trsry to It's admonitions, we will surely
reach suffering and sorrow. II In our
government we violate the initial princi-
pie Of justice and love, we must and will
suffer the consequences. Examples Of ma
tions are not wanting to prove that un-
just laws result in impoverishing the
masses and enriching the few. When
ever that is accomplished, It Is the death
knell Of nation
The downfall Of a people, then, Is
caused by the perversion Of the functions
of government from the true object to
false one.
There are in all civilized or partly civ
ilized nations certain relations Of men
with men that cannot be properly main !
tanned without what is generally called
government. These are the coming and
issuing of money, the building and main
tanning Of highways public roads and
the building and operating of
telegraph and telephone lines, the sur
veying and regulating the possession and
use of farm lands, city lots, mining and
forest lands.
