Thus truthfully remarks our esteem
ed contemporary, the Poplar Bluff Cit
izen: s'There is not man anywhere
who opposes the coinage of silver who
does not insist that Congress has the
right to issue legal tender paper at
pleasure, or who does not rest assured
that Congress has the right to farm out
the privilege of supplying the people
with currency through banking corpor-
ations. Democrats, the fight for the
silver dollar is more than forty years
old. We won it once against the
national banks under the lead of Old
Hickory, and by his bones! We'll win
it again.

Fifth. Bro. Jackson's fifth rea-
son is that Furst says the Hebrew
word stabal' means to moisten,
to sprinkle, and that seventy learn
ed Jews translated it into Greek by
the word baptizo, therefore baptizo
means to sprinkle. To this we reply
First-Furst stands alone in max
ing 'ttabal'' NEAR sprinkle OF
moisten. Second-In the passage
in which baptizo is used to translate
''tabal" e Kings 5:14) Furst says
"tabal" means to dip, and SO

standing his declaration that
"tabal'' means to sprinkle or mois,
ten, he never SO understood it in
his translation of the Bible.
Sixth. Immersion for, baptism
is first heard of In the third century,
spoken of by Tertullian as trine-
naked immerson-and as being a
work OF supererogation. The single
dip was invented by one Eunomius,

Tertullian is the first to mention
trine immersion, but we deny that
he is the first to mention INNER

the New Testament is full OF it.
Moreover, Barnabus, born only three
or four years after the death OF the
Apostle John, says: "Blessed are
they who. placing their trust in the
cross, have gone down into the
WATER" This meaneth that We In
deed descend into the water full OF
sins and defilement, but come up,
bearing fruit in our heart, having

in our spirit--Ante-Nicene Fathers,
Vol. 1, p. IA.
Dean Stanley, an eminent Epis-
copalian, says: There can be no
question that the original form Of
baptism-the very meaning of the
word-was, complete immersion in
the deep baptismal water, and that
for at least four centuries any other
form was either unknown or regard
ed, unless in the case of dangerous
illness, as an exceptional, almost a
monstrous, CASE" To this form
the Eastern Church still rigidly adj
here's, and the most illustrious and
venerable portion of it-that of the
Byzantine Empire-absolutely re-
pudiates andignores any other mode
of administration as essentially in
Mexico weekly ledger., 1893-11-09

is an argument against Immersion.
God would not have made obligatory
mode eireumscribed by climatic
conditions. Neither (sreenland's
icy mountains nor Sahara's burning
sands should interpose a barrier.
These extremes exclude immersion.
Eighteenth. A mode cannot be
God-given that is necessarily fire.
quently c~ircumscribed by physical
conditions. The infant of tender
days and the hoary-headed but
repentant sinner, in life's eleventh
hour with fevered brow and almost
fieshless frame, are bodily conditions
forbidding immersion, but met
easily by effusion.
Nineteenth. 1t is all-sufieient
to know that Jesus used the word
baptize to designate a pouring out"
and a shedding FORTH"
Twentieth. In administering
water baptism by effusion we bring
the subject and the element together
just as Jesus did at P~entecost. l
accept Gods way. All of the ele-
ments of bread are found in one
erunb, all of wine in one sup; and
all OF water in one drop, and if the
first two of these will emblemlze
the body and blood of Jesus then
one drop OF water will emblemize
the baptism of the spirit of purity.
Finally: this putting of baptism
as "obeying the gospel" is moth
ing more OF less than caricaturing
the word Of God. Glove is the
fulfilling of the law" "Christ is
the end of the law for righteous
ness" Christ's new commandment
is Glove one another" To thus
emphasize and stress where God
has not, is sure to result in un-
stressing that which God has en-
phasized, and is equivalent to
"adding to" and "taking from"
the things written in this Book.
