MINDS FORrIFIED AGAINST LIGHT.

During the month OF March Rev.
@. M. Sheldon, Of this city, delivered
a series Of Sunday evening lectures
at his church on the subject of Chris

manifested in these discourses, and
packed houses greeted the speaker on
each occasion. We have heard no
adverse criticism from any person who
attended the meetings.. A State
Journal reporter interviewed several
members OF Mr.. Shelden's church
upon the subject Of these lectures
after their close, and published their
criticisms. Several who heard the
lectures expressed themselves as fully
in accord with the sentiments of the
speaker. Others were not prepared

DEsPICABLE POLITICAL METHODS.


In line with the political methods
Of the old parties is the course of the
Lesvenworth Times respecting the
Kansas Mutual Life association. Ma
jor E. N. Morrill, happens to be one
of the directors of this company. Ma
jor Morrill, is also one of the multi
tude of republican candidates for
governor Of Kansas. The Leaven-
worth Times is opposed to him, and
not being able to give any substsn-
tlal reason for it's opposition. it as
sails the character and standing Of
the Kansas Mutual Life association,
of which he is q director, with a view
of defeating him in that way. This
is not only cowardly; it is despicsble.
We care nothing for Major Morrills
candidacy. The nomination, if he
gets it, will be an empty honor at
best. The Kansas Mutual Life asso-
citation, however, is q Kansas insti-
tuition. 1t would not be permitted by
the insurance commissioner to do
business in the state If its assets were
not satisfactory, unless the commits
sioner should be enjoined from doing
his duty by republican court. To
ssssil the standing of this company,
therefore, as the Times is doing, in
juring its credit and it's business for
no other purpose than to defeat the
nomination of a candidate for COVER
nor to which Mr.. Anthony Is opposed
IS simply contemplate. 1t affords
another illustration of the fact that
there is no principle in republican
politics. A general scramble for
Office is all there is in 1t, and the
methods resorted to in the scramble
are simply contemplate.

Is the Light Dawning

The Rev. John Brown, of Fall River,
Mass, has been Presbyterian clergy
man for twenty-five years. He has
built eight churches, organized over
dozen and has helped the debt of many
others. His own church is prosperous
and out of debt. Last Sunday, to the
great surprise of the congregation, he
read his letter of resignation. He is
to sell his library, buy a tent and preach
Jesus Christ to those who are now out
side OF the church. He says it is posi-
bic that our children will look on our
church buildings that we struggled so
hard to build and pay for with the
same wonder we now regard feudal
castles. We quote one paragraph from
his letter, which evidences the spirit of
the whole Of it.:
"Then, too, l want perfect freedom
to emphasize the social aspects of
Christianity. There are Jerico walls to
be battered down, and Jerusalem walls
to be built up before the reign of King
Jesus can be established The drink
habit must be done away with; the
rights of woman in the state, as they
are now in the church, must be ac-
knowledged; labor and capital must
shake hands, or lock horns like two
steers and fight it out on the edge of
the precipice till either the one or the
other goes over; corruption in high and
low places, especially in politics, must
be swept into hell with the bosom of
destruction; class jealousies and Sec
tartan hatred must be annihilated, and
truth, righteousness, brotherly love and
brotherly helpfulness must exist be-
tween masses and classes, employer
and employe hereafter as never past"

~ Yes, TO the extent that the currency
was needed for business uses, and conf
dencs in It's stability was not disturbed.
Beyond that point every additional issue
was cause of trouble. (2) and (9) Yes,
the certificates were redeemable in either
metal, but it was also eDjoined upon the
secretary Of the treasury TO maintain the
parity Of the two metals, and TO do that he
deemed It necessary to pay out either metal
desired by the holder Of the certificate. To
have refused gold and to have forced the
holder TO take silver would have diacredited
silver.-New York Voice.
A correspondent sends US the above
clipping and asks if the payment Of
silver in redemption of the treasury
notes would not have had the oppo-
site effect from that stated by the
Voice Undoubtedly it would. The
theory of the Voice is In perfect sc-
cord with the hypocritical gold-bug
pretense, that in order to maintain
the parity Of the two metals, it is nec-
essary to discriminate against the one
and in favor of the other. The fact
is, there is no desire to MAINTAIN such
parity; If there was it would be done
by treating both metals alike.
While this general discrimination
in favor Of one kind of money as
against all others is continued and
sanctioned by law, 1t is q good time
for the people to begin to disabuse
their minds of the fsllscies that have
been entertained and taught respect
ing money. II is good time to ask
what the object of this discrimina-
tion can be. Who profits by it? Is
it any benefit to the farmer or the
lsboring man. Who does not know
that this discrimination is solely in
the interest of a few men who have
corner on gold?
Why is gold money in this country
to-day! The Sound money" theor-
lists say because of it's intrinsic value.
Many Of them 60 SO far as to say
that money is a product of nature,
and denominats gold Gods money.
In reality there is no such thing as
intrinsic value in money and cannot
be; but if the fact that gold possesses
commercial value outside o. its use
as money is any argument in favor of
such use, the argument would apply
with greater force to platinum and
other metals which are of greater
commercial value than gold. 1t must
be clear to anyone who will think
about it that money is not necessarily
particular substance, although it
mag be made of anything. The fact
that gold Is money to-day is because
the law has made it 80; and if the
authority of law for it's use as money
were Withdrawn the existing gold
