In another column this morning We
give place to the earnest appeal Of citi-
zens Of the Gallatin valley for relief
from the financial burdens that come
upon them at the close Of a season Of
crop failures and business depression.
These citizens who are heavy taxpayers
represent no party or faction and their
appeal to the governor to call an extra
session OF the legislature, in order that
they may have more time in which to
pay taxes, is calculated to make the ex-
ecutive pause before giving them a re-
fusal.

plan for preaching Christianity, D.

plan for preaching Christianity, Dr.
Lyman Abbott says:
The scientific thought Of the present
age is as truly constructed on this evolu-
tionary theory of change by growth, as
the astronomical thought is on the
Copernicsn theory. IL is useless for the
ministry to go on preaching a catastrophe
theology to an age which has adopted an
evolutionary philosophy and it is great
deal worse than useless for the
ministry to identify religion with a
catastrophe philosophy, and so inclte
the thoughtful men and women Of the
age to relegate religion with that phil
osophy TO the lumber room where old
and cast-on furniture is kept. The
minister who means TO commend religion
that Is the life of faith and hope and
love--to his age. must have the same old
message that God Is in his world of
nature and Of men, redeeming, trans
forming, educating his children and
bringing them into His own likeness
but the successful minister will clothe
this message in the philosophic thought
as well as in the language Of his time
A preacher who lives in this age
should recognize the fact that he is not
preaching to people Of some other age.
There are fashions. cults and changes in
thought The people Of one age do not
think and feel as the people Of another
age think or feel any more than they
see the same things or know the same
things. The sins Of this age are not the
same; hence the application Of the
remedy is not the same that it may
have been in some other age. That
sin is sin the world over in
all ages; and that the remedy is the
same, is no matter to the good physician
who applies the remedy to each case Ia
suit the specific needs Of that particular
patient, are facts undeniable. II
is not wise physician who pre-
scribes the salves and boluses Of the
twelfth century to the wounds Of man
who has been unnerved and burned by
an innocent electric wire Of to-day. Re
ligious thought changes with scientific
thought and the preachers should come
down to it, or go up to it, and preach tC
the people and at the people of this age
not some other age.

1t is a grave mistake to assume that
Judas Iscariot cannot be defended. He
was an able inancier of such reputation
in the community that he was appointed
treasurer II he lived in these days he
would be a member Of Bethany Sunday
school and If he were to get into any
trouble his character would not suffer
he would be defended for the good of

GUS to allow useful man to 60 down
under fire.
Then there were protectionists, Re-
publican orators, and Harrisonized
editors in those days Human nature
has always been the same everywhere.
Names change and events require
changes of position and arguments, but
ignorance, greed, selhshuess, avarice
and mendacity are always apparent
wherever there is human nature, no
matter whether the period is 33 A. d. or
1898 A. d.
Climate, race and locality make
little difference II the Mckinley bill,
the Sherman Silver Purchase law, or the
Geary Exclusion act had been sprung
in Jerusalem, to keep the high priests in
power, old Caiaphas would have signed
them as eagerly as II he, too, expected
to be renominated for President.
Names aud events necessitate few
changes in human nature. .Caiaphas,
the chief, the high priests and
the scribes who silvered themselves and
their cause into favor with Judas
lscariot were as anxious for the welfare
Of the people; as anxious to protect the
Jews from food of cheap Roman goods;
as anxious to defend the home market.
and to provide Jewish wages for Jewish
workingmen as these protectionists Of
Pennsylvania who raised money to assist
God to carry Indiana for Harrison have
been TO perform similar charities here.
Some people do not like TO look at
things in this historic manner, but we
feel convinced that there was just as
much human nature floating around the
circumambient air Of the White House in
1890, when there was little partisan
bigot, sitting in the chilly northeast
corner Of the Presidential chair. as there
was when Caiaphas, the chief priest, sent
messengers to bargain with Judas

What induced Mr.. Harrison to sign

Can any reasonable man study the
situation carefully and say that the con-
sequences Of partisan bigotry and selfish
greed would have been less apparent If

the burden Of taxation upon the people,
without assisting in paying the debts or
the expenses Of the government. Sugar
is an article suitable for taxation be
cause it is an article of universal CON

tenths Of the tax will 60 into the
