4 NOTE or THE AGE.
economy.

The dominant idea underlying all religious
and philanthropic efforts to-day is social ser
vice. A multitude of different and distinct ten
denotes all unite in this idea. Religion has
ceased TO care only for the salvation Of the soul
in another life, and has become actually eager
in IFS efforts to save mems bodies and brighten
and enrich their lives in this present life Phil
anthropic societies Of every sort are coming to
think less of the temporary alienation OF need
and pain, and more of bringing about such con-
ditions as will reduce pain and need 70 min
mum. And even quecnly Science henAclf has
given over for time the pursuit OF abstract
truth, while she brings ont Of her s'orehouse
such facts as will sweetcn and fortfy human
life. Time was when this tendency was spoken
against As an outcome Of materialism and even
to-day there NAV be found a few who condemn
mans attempt to improve his environment, their
theory being that he will be thus led 10 grow
so satisfied with this world that he will forget
all about the world TO come. But such good
souls are in hopeless minority. The self
centred isolation that distinguished the old-tme
saint is giving way before the dfusiyc solidarity
that is the note Of our democratic age. To-day
men DO not most readily find God in the dark
men and women are most wont to gather, and
in wise and helpful plans for the progress and
happiness Of the race In these latter years OF
the nineteenth century a new and vibrant mean
inc has been put into the words of the Apostle
"None Of us liycth TO himself, and no man dicth
to HIMSELF
These thoughts are suggested by the announce
ment that the nineteenth National Conference
Of Charities and Correction will be held in Den
YER, Col, on June 80. The topics 10 be dis
cllsSed include nearly all tho great social prob
lens of the day, a, for instance, State Boards
Of Charity rcformatory work, dndcrgartcns
and child-saving, care and classification Of the
insane, commitment and detention of the insane
charity organization in cities the Indian policy
in its relation to crime and paulerlsm, the colony
plan for the feeble minded immigration and
migration between States, defensive and pre-
ventve measures against pauperiSm and crime,
and the cooperation Of women in the manage
ment OF charitable and penal institutions. The
membership Of the conference is one Of It's unique
features. Ii has no salarcd officers and no
selfish benefits to offer any one. All who are
interested in its work may become members and
take part in its discussions. MoSi valuable and
suggestive papers have been read at previous
meetings OF the conference, and the officers say
that the coming meeting will be quite i'm
portant and interesting as any that have pre-
coded it, An association which is so directly
in line with the most intelligent phanthropic
thought Of the age deserves the supper, and en-
enlargement OF all who have the welfare of
humanity at heart

rpUVCH RELIGIOUS QUESTIONS.

French Life Senator, NJ. Jean Mace. con
tributes an important article 70 to-dayS issue Oh
THE TRIBUNE. which our readers cannot aiofd
to overlook. 1t is letter on the points a, issue
in the recent Ministerial crisis in Pans, ana
contains lucid exposition OF the religious ques-
ZION a. il enters into French politics. This Is
subject which fcw american readers understand
and il is admirably discussed in the Senators
letter Since the overthrow OF the second I'm
pire there has been uninterrupted agitation Ill
favor of the abolition Of the c0nc0rdat anu the
disestabshment Of the Church in France; bun
overwhelming as have been the Republican ma
iorities and uncOmpr0miSng as the electoral pro-
grammes of the Radicals invariably are, no prog
r.ss has been made. Measures aimed against the
religious establishments are constantly intro
duced. but they always hang fire. The majority
Of the Chamber. even when it oycrthrOwS Min
istry for declining to support these separation
nroiects refuses to commit itself TO this drastic
policy. There is an unceaSing play of cross
nurposes and INDIGESTION in French politics when
ever religious questions are under consideration.
NJ. Mace explains the difficulty experienced
bv French politicians and legislators in settling
the question of establishment. The peasant,
while ne ODJettS " tIt pOi''N"i V'AhiH''i'' Va
the Vatican and to the entertainments of Clerical =
ism. does not desire to pay the salary OF MS
priest out of his own pocket He cares nothing
about the maintenance of the ConcOrd1t bur ne
strongly prefers to keep the priest and to nave
the State pay the cost. No Republican Minis
trv dares t. do more than menace the vatican
with the suppression of Public Worship. Inc
threat cannot be carried into execution without
the alienation of the sympathies of powerful
army of voters When the time comes for keep
ing the Concordat distinct from the Budget
which is not for one but for as many ~ four
Churches, the question will be quickly solved
The Concordat is generally condemned by Re
publicans. since it prevents the cordial accept
ance of the Republic by the priests, challenges
the sovereignty Of the nation, and prohibits the
emancipation of conscience and human reason
The Senator's argument points to a concentrl-
ton of Republican attack upon the Concorda''
which has been from the outset ones sided con
tract recognized by the French Government and
half epudiated by the Vatican. Ut the same
time. the religious budgets will be allowed to
stand out of regard for tho peasants prcjudiceS,

INDIAN UIGHER FDTC1TION.

1t does not seem to ls that the bill recently
introduced in the Senate by Senator Perkins, and
referred to the Committee on Indian Affairs, is
a wise one. II provides for the creation of a
Board of Regents Of Education for the Indian
and Oklahoma Territories, who shall have power
TO establish industrial and other schools for the
higher education Of Indians and others. This
Board would consist OF twenty members twelve
Of whom would be appointed by the President
of the United States, and the remaining eight
would be the Governor and Superintendent Of
Oklahoma Territory, the senior Judge Of the
United States in Indian Territory, and the pin
cipa chief of The civilized tribes Of Indians
known as tho Cherokee, the Creek the Seminole
the Chociaw and the Chicka>aw nations. And
it would have power to incorporate As many in
dustrial, academic and other higher institutions
of learning as it might deem necessary TO pro-
vide ample and effective means for the higher
education of Indians in the Indian and Oklahoma
Territories.
The good intent Of this bill need not be ques.
toned 1t was drawn I'd by the Rev. Dr.. NJ.

The authorities of the new Chicago University
are perplexed by the Unexpectedly numerous ap-
plications for admission. There are already about
100 on file, and it Is estimated that by the time
the institution is ready to open, next October, there
will be 1900 students ready to begin work. OF
these there will probably be from 800 to 1000
coming from places outside the city who must
be provided with lodgings But there are accommo-
dations for only about 200 in the college dormito
ries, and no funds available for providing more.
This would of itself not be so serious matter
were it not that the opening year OF the uni
versity will fall in the period of the Worlds Fair,
when private lodgings outside will be at a premium
and crowded with strangers. What to do with
its students will therefore probably he question

so far forgets himself as to invade the capital Of

There is keen disappointment among the alumni
and friends of Dartmouth College at the refusal
Of Professor William }. Tucker TO accept the prcs
dency Of that old and honorable Institution By
common consent DIR. Tucker WAS deemed pccu-
harly fitted for the place. which no doubt lie
would have filled with dignity and success His
letter setting out hs reasons for declining shows
that he was sensible Of the honor done him, and
of the opportunity he was setting aside. But when
he left the pulpit twelve years ago he says. ne
determined to devote his energies 10 training
young men for the ministry. and it is in that
field that he feels his duty to lie. so far there
is nothing TO indicate in what direction the Dart
mouth trustees will turn to find President Bart
let's successor The president of the college
must be "A Congrcgatonalist and Unitarian.
It is not obligatory that he be n clergyman. Why
should not the trustees look favorably on the
choice OF ayman? Several other Eastern col
lcges have in recent years chosen presidents who
were not clergymcn, with results that appea,
highly satisfactory.

sincere follower OF the Lord Jesus

ingly she shared with her husband the

the love Of all who knew her, and the
lives Of her children who largely owe to

FIFTH DISTRICT.
A GALLANT Plight AND PAR.
TIAL VICTORY.
Davis Majority Cut Down to Less
Than Burton Defeated by
a Small Number Of votes-Dis.
patches from Various Counties.

The Fifth district is still in favor OF
John Davis for Congressman. 1t Seems
one Of the most remarkable things on
earth that any considerable body OF
intelligent people should desire a man
like John Davis to represent them in
the halls of Congress, but they have SC
spoken.
They have asked that they be re-
ferred to as paupers and debtors, as
suffering and poor and they will get
what they asked for.
1t is a matter of regret that the
Fifth district does not have pride
enough in itself to elect j. II. Burton.
1t has cut down John Davis majority
to less than 1000 but 1t is not yet free
from the clutch of calamity politics.
There is but this consolation in Mr..
Burton's defeat: If he could not win,
no Republican could have won. No
man in Kansas ever made such a cam
paign AS he. If 1875 such speeches as
Mr., Burton made could not elect him
no Republican could have been eleoted.
The following special dispatches
received this afternoon show the result
in the various counties:
WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.-The result
OF the congressional election in Wash
ington county shows about standoff.

party will have over so majority.
