FUTURE LEADERSHIP.

The day of sentimental politics is
passing. Heroes who can merely pose
and promise will not henceforth much
abound. The issues now to be met are
practical business questions, in regard
to which, be it said in all seriousness.
the masses are not very thoroughly
versed. This future teaching of the
people ought, therefore, to begin with
simple, practical, elementary ideas.
Most OF the men who have done the
spell-binding in hot elections have
lacked the purpose to discuss more than
one side of the issue as Ii was made up.
The party newspaper. too, has felt itself
compelled to indulge in the generalities
that made up the glitteIing total OF
promise to the voter. So long as there
was basis of sentiment to the cam
psign side of things, there was nothing
unnatural or dishonest in this. 1t was
sii really to be expected, So far do de-
nomina tional pride and fervor go.
There has been in the general tone of
political discussion too much roar about
our oountry's glory; our great opportu'
mites; our precious liberties; how We
have paid the workingman better here
than where he does not live within walls
and mountains OF protection; the equal.
ity of labor and capital. without sug-
costing how they should Keep together
as equals, especially when the appeal
was actually being made to the wage
earners az distinct class. and only to
be placsted by full dinner pail, and all
these cheap and ephemeral ways and
means for raising prejudice and passion
instead of reason.
The idea of paternalism has q
strong hold on certain classes. who have
actually come 10 believe that all calami-
ties not distinctly chargeable to God or
the public enemy. are in the power OF the
ruling party to avert or control, and the
political poser pleads for votes as Q
player upon the stage does for receipts
at tine door. Both expect to please the
people and swell the patronage.
This business cannot much longer 60
en-. A class OF teachers will have to
come to the front with the power of a
new gospel OF economic truth. and these
will the common people hear gladly.
Thoughtful, sincere students Of the
politics OF today are hopeful of school
OF economics that shall turn out teach
ers of sound and enduring ideas of gov.
eminent We may not always have O
Moses who can smite the rock OF tbs
J public credit and bring forth abundant
revenue in days of stress, but it ought
not to be difficult to create thirst for
the knowledge that will save US il
ordinary times, by ordinary ways. The
noisy declaimer on behalf of crude new
doctrines must be taken at his worth
and we must arouse an honest and fixed
purpose to insist upon aud agree to
abide by the tests OF philosophy and

EVANGELIST PRATT.
His Meetings Yesterday At the FIrst Bar
tiat ChurCh.

His Meetings Yesterday at tho First Bap-
tist Church.
Probably yesterday the meeting at
the First Baptist church rose to its
highest point. The day was devoted by
some to the spiritual interests of the
meeting. At 8 O'Clock in the afternoon
Mr.. Pratt found crowded room to greet
MIN. The topic Of the Bible reading,
as announced yesterday, was Assurance,
based on Job tx :25.26. in which occur
the memorable words, 81 know that my
Redeemer liveth." Mr.. Pratt said:
"rhese words were spoken to Job way
back in the twilight of the ages. How
God spoke to him do not know, but l
do know that he knew a good deal more
than many in these latter days. There
ia a whole volume of theology in these
two verses. Job was more OF thee.
Logan than we think. Job had appro.
Redeemer lives.' He did not say at the
latter day, but the last day.
Then. too, be has reached the ulti-
mate possibility of Christian desire. II
shall see God" In the last chapter of
Revelations is this great promise, land
they shall see His face" 1t was this
that John wanted to see. In your tes.
timony meetings you go often repeat
this verse, but oh, do not do it unless
you know it in its fullness.
These are instances of the assurance
OF the Bible Christians, and such should
we have. Some might say that it is
veinglorying to have this assurance, but
it is based on Gods word. A number
of passages were quoted and commented
upon in Mr.. Pratt's convincing and
helpful manner. No man should be
satitfed without the full assurance that
he is child OF God. 1t ia every mans
privilege to know this, and we should
strive to 30 understand the word of God
and 30 live that we can feel conscious Of
acceptance with Christ. II we believe,
it is dishonoring Gods word to doubt
our salvation.
In the evening deep eolemnity per-
vsded the large audience. Rev. DR.. W.
Ii. Dodson, of the. Central Baptist
church, led in prayer.
The sermon for the evening was taken
from Matthew, 23-l3: For ye shut up
the kingdom of heaven against men /;
for ye neither go in yourselves, neither
suffer ye them that are entering to
go in"
These words were spoken to a class

show: First, some ways we can shut
the kingdom OF heaven to ourselves.
(a) By holding to another way of saliva

every offer of grace. (c) By neglect.

4 POLITICAL PARADISE.

Ex-Attorney- General A. L. Hart has
begun suit against Dan Burns for $685.
600 and costs. Hart, in his complaint,
alleges that the amount claimed is
a balance due for services rendered in
defending Burns on charges OF embez-
element, including two actions in the
police court in Sacramento" and "dif-
ferent suits in the superior court where
the charge was embezzlsment in the
incorporation OF public funds while
secretary of state.'"
During the recent cam paign the most
prominent leader in the Republican
ranks was q citizsn whose name lie
Daniel Burns, abbreviated as in tins case
of the defendant OF Attorney Harris
suit to plain Dan Burns. IL is possible
that superficial and unthinking readers
of the newspapers have confused tn o
Dan Burns who was accused OF looting
the public treasury 10 years ago and the
Dan Burns who manipulated the Repub.
licsn party in the late campaign. There
are people, no doubt, who bslisve that
Mr.. Hart and the man who compelled
the nomination of Mr.. Estee, and was
largely instrumental in tbs defeat OF
that candidate, are the same-as Mr..
Hyde was DR.. Jekyll and vice versa.
On the other hand, there are people
who fail to grasp the paradox of Dan
Burns accused Of embezzlement, and
Dan Burns, leader Of a great political
party. debating state policy to honest
men. These are not 80 much surprised
that Dan Burns. silent under an accrsa-
ton of this kind and refusing to pay his
lawyer for defending him, should have
the hardihood to assume the role of
political dictator. but they marvel that
the party should submit to the dicta-
ton. And they have reason for their
marveling.

1t is patent to both OF these gentlemen
that any effort to disturb the verdict OF
the people would not only be absurd,
but dangerous to the moral we'll being
OF the Republican party in California.
This confederation might not influence
Republican legislature in its action in
the premises, but it is not likely tn at
they are prepared to incur the obi um
heaped upon the convention that NOM
mated Mr.. E,tee by reason OF its SUBJ
mission to the dictation of Dan Burns.
A second dose OF that sort OF medicine
would be more disastrous to the party
than the defeat of Mr.. Estee.

The attitude OF Mr.. Estee in regard to
. recount proposed by Dan Burns and
the Republican state central committee
is eincere-to the extent that he sees
the folly of such an effort to deprive Mr..
Budd OF tho fruits OF his honestly earned
victory. in his sslf.communiugs he
must acknowledge that recount could
op'y emphasize the verdict of the people
and by its incentive to a searching in
vestigation would serve to expose the
corruption that was practicsd on his
own behalf to overcome the widespread
and desp-seated Impression that he was
not only q plant candidate OF Dan
Burns, but one who was not
coy OF railroad influences. In direct
line with Mr.. E,tee's disclaimer is
Mr.. Budd's rejolnder that hs is not

Few people realize what hope has
come to the south through the termina-
ton OF che legislation known, in general
terms, as the force bill. The more
courageous class of Republicans have
always opposed this sort of Legislation,
but have been overborne by the sense
less cry that it was necessary. When
General Butler was in congress from
Massachusetts, he chsmpioned an ex-
treme measure OF this sort, virtually
placing all elections in the southern
states in the hands of United States
marshals. The country will never for
get how Mr.. Blaine came down from the
speakers chair and made one OF the
most impassioned speeches OF his life
against the measure; and for a time it
was STAYED off. Nothing but supposed
political advantage ever kept the discus-
sion alive after that. But all this has
now passed away, and forever. North
srn men whose Investments are in the
southern states rebel against any fur
Their interference. The excellent results
that have swiftly followed the repeal OF
the last laws on the statute book make
IL impossible ever to revive the question
as political issue.

United States Marshal Crump VIII

WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.-It has been
decided that the present situation in the
Indian territory is not such az to war
rant the secretary of war in calling out
United States troops. and the authorities
in the Indian territory have been so
notified. This. however, does not mean
that the government is to abandon or in
any degree delay Its efforts TO bring the
Cook gang of outlaws to justice. On the
contrary, United States Marshal Crump
of Arkansas, who has made a reputa~
ton for himself in dealing with the
tough element in the southwest, will
continue with increased vgor the pur-
suit OF the marauders. The presence OF
any considerable military force, il is not
doubted, would have q salutary effect
in quoting the fears OF the in inhabitants,
yet it is thought it might defeat the
endu sought by scattering the outlaws.
and thus making their capture difficult,
ii not impossible.
