Subject, useful Suffering"

TEXT ~ behorel Christ to snfer"-
Luke XIV, 49,
There have been scholars who have ven
tured the assertion that the pains Of our
Lord were unnecessary. In Iced 10 was q
shocking waste of tears and blood and az
ony, unless some great eni were to be
reached, II men can prove that no good re-
suit comes Of it then the character of Col
IS impeached and the universe must stand
abhorent and denunciatory at the fact that
the Father allowel the butchery Of His only
begotten Son.
We all admire the brave six hundred men
described by Tennyson as dashing into the
conflict when they knew they must die, and
knew at the same time that some one had
blunder'd,' but we are abhorrent Of the man
who made the blunler and who caused the
sacrifice of those brave men for no use. But
| shall show you, if the Lord will help me,
this morning that for good reasons Christ
went through the torture. In other words,
1t behooved Christ to suffer"
In the first place, / remark that Christ's
decorations were necessary, because mans
rescue was an impOssibility except by the
payment of some great sacrifice Outraged
law had Numbered against iniquity. Man
must die unless substitute can intercept
that death. Let Gabriel step forth. He re-
fuses. Let Michael the archangel step forth.
He refuses. No Roman citizen, no Athe-
MAN, no Corinthian, no reformer, no angel
volunteered. Christ then barred His heart to
the pang. He paid for our redemption in
tears and blood and wounded feet and
scourged shoulders and torn brow. at is

"Oh, says some man, 81 don't like that
doctrine of substitution; let every man
bear his ewn burdens, and weep his own
tears, and fight his own battlesp Why, my
brother, there is vcarious suffering all over

Senator Cullom Hear From.


The Republican party will turn the
government over to the Democracy il
the spring with everything in good
shape. The Democrats have made
promises which must be fulfilled in
legislation or there will be a day Of
reckoning. To this and similar gener.
alizations the Senator added a bit oil
advice which is an Endorsement of the
policy The Inter Ocean urged upon the
state Convention of 1890. Speaking
from the standpoint of Illinois, he said;
Let the Republicans take warning by the re.
suit this year. In two years we will be called
upon to elect members of Congress, two State
officers and legislature in our State The
Legislature will elect a United States Senator.
believe in the policy of the Republican party
naming its candidate in 1892 in State conyen-
tion, but our duty now is to rally to the stand
ard OF the Republican party and its principles,
the enforcement of which has made our people
prosperous and our Nation SO great.
This is sensible talk 1t is Mr. Cullom's own
term which is to expire in three years He
does not say whether he wants to make the
race himself or not, but he does say, and tha,
is all he ought to say, that the selection should
be made in advance of the campaign by the
representatives of the people duly assembled
in convention When he was first elected it
was uncertain who would get the prize, himself
or Governor Oglesby. The convention had
left the matter in doubt and that deliberately.
The prevailing sentiment at the time was that
it would be well to leave it open until after the
Legislature itself had been chosen, and let
that body make the choice. Both policies
have obtained in this State, according to cir
cumstances. In 1858 the convention made the
choice, but when Trumbull was pitted against
Yates and E. B. Washburne. and General
Logan against Governor Oglesby, the choice
was left to the legislative caucus. But the
time has come when the people want to know
for whom they are voting for Senator when
they cast their legislative ballots Mr. Cullom
says in effect, am not announcing myself as
a candidate; it is too early for that. but who
ever may be the coming man let his leadership
be clearly recognized and made certain before
the campaign opens
1t is already settled who will be the Demo
cratic candidate for Senator. Governor-elect
Altgeld has been working and spending his
money WIN 4" floM W TIC CHlttu SIdteS sen
ate, and not the Goyernorship. 1t will not be
necessary for the convention to formally an
nounce his candidacy. Everybody will under
stand it, mr. ch as they did that Mr.. Cullom
was candidate ten years ago. Every iota CT
gubefnatorial patronage will be employed
with that end in view. Many positions will
undergo change now that have never been
treated as political. That is the kind of man
Altgeld is. gainst him must be put candi-
date who can reach the popular heart, call
back wanderers and put enthusiasm in the
campaign. 1t is enough for the present to in
sist that the policy so often urged by The
Inter Ocean, and now indorsed by Senator
Cullom, be accepted as foregone conclusion.
