ENGERSOLL ON HELL

lecture on Sunday night to an
immense audience Chicago. IN
his closing remarks lie paid the
following tribute to the Christians
hell and then closed with his own
view of right. It is powerful good
reading for theologians. We clip
from the Examiner:
The lecturers Inference was that
it would have been far better had
the New Testament never beer,
written; far better that tue theo-
logical Christ had never lived. He
pronounced the scheme OF redemp-
ION aud the atonement utterly ab-
surd, and on the question OF belief
declared Que side of Christianity
not only stupid. but malicious
Colonel Ingersoll said:
"lt is not only unscientltic, but
1t is i,eartless. Its God is not only
ignorant but infinitely cruel. lie
not only promises the faithful an
eternal rewa,d, but declares that
nearly all the children of men inn
prisoned in tie dungeons of God
will suffer eternal pain. This is
the savagery of Christianity. This
is why hate it's unthinkable God,
it's impossible Christ, its inspired
lies, and it's selfish, heartless
heaven.
Christians believe in infinite tor
ture, in eternal pain. Eternal
pain! All the meanness OF which
the heart of man is, capable in that
word hell That wore. is a den. q
cave in which crawl the Shiny rep
tiles of revenge. That word cer-
titles savagery Of primitive man.
That word is the disgrace, the
shame, the infamy Of our revealed
religion. That word fls all the
future with the shrleks OF the
damned. That word ebrutalizes the
New Testament, changes the SER
mon on the Mount to Hypocrisy
a. d Cant, and pollutes and hardens
the very heart of Christ. The
word adds an infinite horror to
death aud makes the cradle as ter.
rible as the coffin.
That word is the assassin Of JOY,
the mocking murderer of hope.
That word Hxtinguished the light OF
life and wraps the world in gloom.
That word drives pity from the
hearts of men, stained countless
swords with blood, lighted fagots,
forged chains, built dungeons,
erected scatfolds and filled the
world with poverty and pain.
That word is a coiled serpent in.
the mothers breast that lifts its
fanged head and Kisses in her ear,
"Your child will be the fuel of
eternal fire" That word blasts
from the armament the star OF hope
and leayens the heavens black.
That word makes the Christians
God an eternal torturet, an ever
lasting inquisitien, an infinite wild
beast. This is the Christian pro-
phesy of the eternal: "No hope in
hell-no pitv in heaven-no mercy
in the heart of God. ("
In his conclusion Colonel Inger--
soil declared that if men are i'm
mortal it is fact in nature, and
that fact does not depend on Bibles
or Christ or priests or creeds
Here is his declaration of faith:
"To love Justice, to long for the
light, to love mercy, to pity suffer
ing, to assist the weak, to forget
wrongs and remember benefits, to
loAe the truth. to be sincere, to

The real issue in the next cam
paign will be whether this is tote
a government of the people, for
the people and by the people" as
declared by the immortal Lincoln,
or whether it is to be govern
ment Of the money lenders, for the
money lenders and by the money
lenders as represented by the
Rothschild = Sherman Cleveland
syndicate. This would seem to be
a big enough issue for any parry

BISHOP GALLOWAY CAN'T COME.

He win Not Dedicate the Methodist
Church.
The Methodist church will not be- ded-
icated as soon AS was expected. Bishop
Galloway had been invited to preach
the dedicatory sermon, but he found 1t
impossible to so arrange as to come to
Dawson. The officers of the church are
now thinking of postponing the dedica-
ton until the time of the annual con-
ference in December when they hope to
secure the presence of Bishop Cranberry.
This divine will presids over the annual
conference at Fort Valley, and it is
hoped that he can be brought 10 Dawson
to perform the cerem onies incident to
the dedication.
