The Bible Conference at Asbury Park is

voted to the consideration OF the questions
Of authorship, dates, and integrity OF those
books OF the Bible most aesailed by the
higher critics." 1t undertakes to argue
with the enemies Of tho Bible. Mr.. MOODY
simply proclaims his faith In literal and
absolute inspiration, treating all doubt as
wicked infldelity.
Brother MoopY's is the only safe position,
and his Is the only consistent course. The
Bible must be accepted as OF GoD by faith

spirit of profanity. The truth Of the Bible
cannot be proved by human evidence. for
the ways OF GoD with men are beyond the
reach Of human knowledge The Bible
must be taken on faith purely. or its Divine
authorship must be rejected wholly.
The Asbury Park Conference cannot meet
the new school OF Biblical critics on their
own ground without acknowledging that
the Bible Is within the proper limits Of hui
man criticism. and that. being SO. 1t cannot
be the Word of GOD. Nor can 1t meet them
thus without being worsted in the debate.

1t is allowable to criticise the Bible

out their case against 1t. The weight OF tho

on their side. II they are challenged to
produce human proofs against their oppo-

them from the field Of controversy.
The only way Of avoiding such catas-
trophe is for the believers In the Bible to
follow the example OF Brother MOODY and
refuse to discuss the Bible on any such
terms. 1t is simply to say. II believe"
and to treat all invitations to controversy
from the disbelieving critics as temptations

Free List Positively Suspended ,

We are sorry TO see that our esteemed
contemporary, the Buffalo Courier, Is still
In the blackness Of tho darkness OF protec-
ttonism. and painfully ignorant Of the Dem
ocratio position in regard to the tariff.
The MCKINLEY law admits free OF duty
"fish. the product Of American fishermen,
and fresh or foreign fish. except salmon.
caught in fresh waters by American vessels.
or with nets or other devices owned by cit
izens OF the United States" Tho Dominion
Government issues licenses to fish in Do
minion waters to citizens of the Dominion
only. Therefore the United States collects
duty on fish caught in Dominion waters.
and therefore the fish industry Of Buffalo
suffers. and delegates from the lake ports
are now in Washington for the purpose Of
amending the tariff 30 that all fish caught
in fresh waters shall be admitted free OF
duty. Tho Buffalo Courier sinks still deeper
into the old rut Of protectionism. and Is for
giving the freedom Of the Custom House to
all the fnny citizens Of the salt and the
unsa,ted seas:
"rhere is every reason why Congrsss should 70
shsr and make free Of duty all fsh, wherever caught
and whether frsah salt Fish not only . very
important article Of food but they in special
demand among the poor and the imposition Of duty
sa piece Of oarbarity comparable only with duty
wheat in country which imports Its grain"
In such o strain might the Hon. WILLIAM
MCKINLEY or the Hon. ROBERT P. PORTER
talk. and surprise nobody: but from DEM
ocrat, o believer In the tariff for revenue
only. such language is as incongruous as
eulogy Of the Westminster Catechism would
be In the mouth Of Col. Bob INaERsoLL or
passionate praise Of the gold standard by
Gen. JAMES B. WEAVER. The purpose OF a
tariff for revenue only Is only revenue
Such tariff cannot have free list. There
can be no articles admitted d. Fl. The
makers Of such tariff cannot consider
whether an impost Is for the poor or the
rich. It must pay Its way. whatever use it
is intended for. and contribute its share to
the expenses OF the Government econom-
ically administered. A philanthropical ten
derness for fish eaters or for the business
OF the lake ports can find no place in such
tariff. It is for money. and it can make no
exceptions for love.
The free list Is positively suspended by
constitutional tariff. We wonder If 1t will
be necessary to have the Democratic plat
form printed In raised letters for the use OF
the blind In Buffalo and elsewhere2

The Choctaws have held their regular
August election. and out Of seventeen of the
nineteen counties heard from the Nationals

two. This insures q great triumph for the
former which may have bearing on the con-

Tho arrangement for debate OF the silver

Those opponents OF the SHERMAN act who
have criticised tho Democratic Senators for

the great strength OF the silver men Is in

OF the silver States more powerful proper

Will the Homo Rule Bill Pass o Third
Reading?

It would be idle to underrate the damage
done to the prospects Of homo rule by the
adoption OF resolution to reject Mr.. GLAD
STONES bill at the Parnellite convention In
Dublin. The nine Parnelllte votes, trans
ferred from one side to the other, will count.
OF course, eighteen on q division. It is
also taken for granted that at least three
professed friends OF Mr.. GLADSTONE.
namely. DR.. WALLACE. Sir EDWARD REED.
and Mr.. BOLTON. will oppose his Irish
measure; and their votes, acquiring a
double value when transferred. will repre-
sent further deduction Of six from the
Ministerial majority. As one Gladstonian
seat is vacant. there will remain majority
Of only fifteen. and to obtain even this
every Ministerialist must be present and
voting. or paired. A change Of eight more
votes would defeat the bill. and there is
known to be more than this number of
lukewarm and wavering Gladstonians. We
may be certain that no effort will be spared
to win them over to the Unionist side. and
the knowledge that the detection of even 40
small body would prove decisive may en-
bolden them to desert their leader. But It
should be distinctly understood that II the
home rule project Is defeated at the last
moment. the responsibility for the catas-
trophe will rest upon the Parnellite mem
bers. II they stood firm the number of
Gladstopian desertors would scarcely ex-
ceed three. and even II 1t should prove
somewhat larger 1t would not be large
enough to annihilate the Ministerial ma
1ority.
What will the Parnellites take home to
Ireland In exchange for the scheme of self
government for whose collapse they will be
responsible? Will 1t be the hope Of larger
concessions in the future2 No such hope
will be entertained by clear-headed Irish
men. 1t is evident to them. as 1t is to their
Unionist opponents. that II the present
Home Rule bill is beaten. no other project
OF the kind can be looked for during many
years to come. Mr.. GLADsroNE's duty to
his Radical followers and to the Gladsto-
nian representatives from Scotland and
Wales will compel him to wash his hands OF
the Irish business. All the time left at the
disposal OF the Ministry will be devoted to
fulfilling the promises given to the agri-
cultural laborers. to the Progressives OF the
metropolitan district. and to the advocates
OF an improved registration law and re-
form OF tho franchise In accordance with

duct In the very delicate and difficult COM
plications between the two republics was
