THE RIGHT TOPICS,

The contributors to the REVIEW are the

The University club played its last
game of ball yesterday with results
as we predicted in Tuesdays issue.
The Fairmont club made one score
in the first inning, but after that
they exerted themselves so mnch
chasing the ball over the field that
they were exhausted when they
again came to the bat. The game
was not interesting enough TO ere
ate much enthusiasm. Our boys
did some excellent work. Moore's

Corruption, liscord and treachery
have been and will ever be, bnt these
things, though they may retard our
progress, can never shake the foun-
dalton principles Of our government
|or endanger its perpetuity.

In England. it is said. The King

government, no man is 90 high that
the arm 81 the law can not reach
him, or the lightning Of pnhiic opin-

scorn. No man Is so poor that he
can not own his vote, and above all

Our Government was founded by
our pilgrim fathers upon the Bible,
with civil and religious liberty for
its charter. It had a prenatural
preparation and prophecy for per-
manency, and when a nation as ours
by constitutional guarantees, secures
and recommends the worship Of God
according 70 the dictates OF CON
science, that notion grows nobler
and better, destined TO reach the
happy contamination Of political
perfection. And it is only necessary
to say in reply to the pessimistic ex-
preston, That the world is growing
worse" that such concession would
be an admission that civilization, in
telligence and christianity impede
the progress of mankind
America has opened her doors to
the oppressed; and the signs of the
times do not indicate that they must
he closed.
Truly has it been said: ssOur story
lis matchless, our government a pal
ladium," and wherever our flag
floats, wherever waving langnidly in
the zephyr Of the tropics'or futter-
ing amid the ice crags Of Arctic des
olation, it is hailed as the emblem
of freedom and the symbol Of the
rights Of man.
And from the crowded cities and
the homes of poverty and of ease
the hearts of freedom will be cheer

the resonant notes of freedom will fill
the land with inspiration as the joy
