Usury.

Rev. ]. W. Mclaughlin preached
at the Christian church last Sunday
morning and evening. In the even
ing his subject was "USury, from a
Bible Standpoint" The audience
was large and the sermon well re-
ceived. He showed by the old tesla.
ment scriptures that God always
frOwned upon the taking Of interest
or increase" for the loan of money.
and that his mortgage ridden people
were relieved from their dire distress
by their taskmasters being compelled
to restore unto them their lands and
the hundredth part Of their products
in addition. This would be called
revolution" and "repudiatiOnn in
this age. Mankind seems to have
been able to improve on the Lord Al
mighty's business" ideas, but they
had to lose sight Of the fundamental
idea that "the earth is the Lords
and the fullneSS thereof" Some day
they will awaken to the truth. Let
US hope that the awakening may be
peaceably, not violently. By ample
authority, Rev. Mclaughlin showed
that uSury was formerly considered
the taking Of any interest, and that
it has only in these latter days been
recognized by law, and the consequent
dealing in money became a legitimate
industry The whole scheme OF
putting money out at interest is at
conflict with Gods law. Money in.
vested in property, in merchandis
ing, or in manufacturing for prof
differs from being loaned in that it i:
there being made to do industrial ser
vice, essential to human existence
and such money becomes usuriou!
only when the profits exacted ar,
more than men would have the mora
right TO exact. He showed that i
such were Gods purposes under tn,
law, how much more were they Hi
purposes under his gospel, which i
based on so much higher grounds o
equity and justice. His sermon wa
full Of thought and amply grounded
in the Bible. The affairs of our bus
mess life have caused much Of God
utterances to be covered up, and W,
are often surprised as these bidder
truths are brought to light. The di
vine will is expressed in the languag,
"Owe no man anything and debt i
a curse to all the world. The casl
system is, however, impossible, unde
our present contracted money system
which forces usury on the Who'll,
