of average wealth increased on every sin
and feel the inequality of it's distribution.
They see an overproduction of everything
desired because of the underproduction of
the ability to buy. They can
not pay for loyalty except with
their suffrages, and can only punish be-
trayal with their condemnation. Although
the ones who most deserve the fostering
care OF the government their cries for help
too often beat in vain against the outer
wall, while others find ready access to
legislative halls.
This army, vast and daily vaster growing,
bess the party to be its champion in the
present conflict. 1t cannot press it's claims
amid sounds of revelry. It's phalanxes do
not form in grand parade, nor has it gaudy
banners floating on the breeze. Its battle

Equality before the law" To the demo-
cratic party, standing between these two ir.
reconcilable forces, uncertain to which side
to turn and conscious that upon its choice
its fate depends, come the words of Is
rael's second lawgiver: Choose you this day
whom we will serve" What will the an

him whose dust made sacred the soil of
Monticello when he joined
The dead but sceptered sovereigns who still
Our spirits from their urns.
He was called a demagOgue and his
followers Il mob but the immortal Jeffer-
son dared to follow the best promptings Of
his heart. He placed man above matter,
huhlanity above property aud, spurning
the brides of wealth and power, pleaded the
cause of the common people. 1t was this
devotion to their interests which made
his party invincble while he lived and will
make his name reyered while history en-
durcs. And what message comes to us
from the Hermitage? When crisis like
the present arose and the national bank
of his day sought to control the politics
of the nation, God raised up an Andrew
Jackson, who had the courage to grapple
with that great enemy and by overthrow
ing it he made himself the idol of the peo-
pie and reinstated the democratic party in
public confidence. What will the decision
be today? The democratic party has won
the greatest success in its history Stand

it turn its face to the rising or the setting
sun? VIII it choose blessings or cursings-

By the name of Bartholomew Las Casas.
Las Casas liberated his slaves and commenced
to work against slavery in the Spanish settlements
North of Guatemala there lived a tribe of Indians
so fierce and revengefu that the SpRninrds called
their country the Land of War. Las Casas, with n
company of monks. went into this Land OF War
and converted the ferocious savages without any
bloodshed. If all the white men in America had
been like Las Casas there would have been no wars

You say the Indian is cruel. So would yon be If

away from your home and saw your friends killed

of yours would vanish like snow in May.
The Indian is a human being like yourself, and
he has the same right to life and freedom. You

And They Wondered.

COL Hale blew into rapidly growing West
ern town recently. says the ST. Louis Globe
Democrat, and quickly grasped the fact that
there was no cable-road. With everything
gone but silk hat and s125, he spent 500 for
admission in a swell local club and proceeded
to exist on the remaining $25. He gathered
about him the leading moneyed men and laid
bare the scheme of millions in q csble-road.
He agreed to obtain the franchise and put it
through for $4,000, part of which was to %
paid down as guarantee of good faith. The
Colonel busted up his silk hat and attacked
the Aldermen next. By dint of promising,
and pompous appearance of wealth, he secured
an ordinance, was voted stock, drew what was
coming to him, and blew out again, leaving
everyone TO wonder.

Notice that all names for the Holy Scriptures
found in Ps., 119, were given TO the Bible before
it was complete as now, and therefore apply to
it only to the extent it was then existent.
Most of the names relate to the Ten Command
meats or the moral law In the time of the
Psamist the Bible also included the ceremonial
law The names, however as found in Ps., 119,
are yet applicable to the Bible so far as the
Bible itself is in force to-day. The ceremonial,
having effected its work as typical of Christ,
is not now literally in practice. The moral
law will hold for eternity.

Aud when the darkness settled down
On bloody dale and hill,
The foemen fed. but DER the scene
The dear flag floated still.
And bonny jack, with hesving breast
And flashing eye, would say
81 wish that had been a man
To fight for it that day"
One morn, when Jack sat by the sea,
And heard her mad desire
To reach the sheltered village homes,
There rang wild cries OF Fire !"
And as from fathers house he saw
The flames mount, fierce and high.
He turned and ran. with beating heart,
Toward the kindling sky.

Please don't let it be burned"
"Hush. boy. for everything is lost"
With piteous cry he turned,
"Will no one save my fathers flag?
Then, if you dare not try,
I'll clasp that dear old flag again;
I'm not afraid to die"
The lad was gone ere they could speak,
They saw him disappear;
With trembling forms and bated breath
They waited. pale with fear.
One moment, then joyful shout
AS Jack once more they see.
He smiles with JOY and waves the flag,
I've gained the victory"
Then strong men catch the swaying form,
And as he faints away
They cry, He'll wear the soldiers scars.
Brave hero in the frsy!"
Brave lad, indeed! He fought as we'll

He rsked his life to save his flag,
