AN EASTER SERMON.

R. S. Thompson, managing editor of The
New Era, of Springfield, Ohio, preached an
Easter sermon in that city, which is so good
that we cannot resist the temptation to quote
few passages:
But as Christ is risen from the dead and be-
come the first fruits of them that slept, why
took for my subject to-day: "Wanted, NEW
resurrection of jesus?
We need a new resurrection OF Jesus IN the
hearts and lives of His followers.
We need new resurrection of Jesus in the
business world.
We need new resurrection of Jesus in the
social world.
We need new resurrection of Jesus in the
political world
If the risen Christ were living now in the
hearts and lives of His professed followers,
there would be no hungry men or women or chill
dren in all America to-day.
If the risen Christ were living in the hearts
of this people, there would be no idle men
tramping up and down the earth, seeking
chance to make living, and finding none.
If the risen Christ were living in the hearts
of this people, there would be no saloons on
our streets, tempting the young men down to
the hell from which to save them Jesus shed
His blood. There would be no mothers weep
ing over graves of drunken sons, no broken
hearted wives, no weeping children.
If the risen Christ were living in society to-
day, there would be no social problem for learned
professors to ponder, and 1 would say to our
learned professors that the social problem will
never be solved till we have new resurrection
of Jesus.
If the risen Christ were living in the political
world to-day, there would be no Unjust laws
upon Our statute-books, no justification of the
wicked for reward no taking of the righteous
ness of the righteous from him. There would
be no trusts and no monopolies and no combin-
atoms to defraud. There would be no whisky
power and no money power, and our politics
would not be ruled by that trinity of hell, beer,
Doodle and bulldozing.
We talk glibly and we sing gladly about
Christ living in us, and the Bible is full of the
doctrine, but how much of what we read and
sing do we understand, and how much OF what
we say do we mean2
What does Paul mean when he talks ABOUT
Christ living in us, being formed in us, being
in us the hope of glory?
Simply this: that Christ's life is to be reflect
ed in our lives; that we are to have heart like
Christ's heart; that we are to feel as Christ
would feel, think as Christ would think, Fact as
Christ would actin fact, that our lives are to
be so much like Christ's life that we can hon.
estly say with Paul, 81 live, yet not I, but
Christ liveth in me, and the life which now

EDITORS AGITAToR: Government is for the
admiration of fools and for the benefit of scoun-
drels. If there is any other use for the rdcu-
lous fraud, it has not yet been discovered. We
have governments within governments, govern
ments beneath governments and governments on
top OF governments, and still they come The
lice of Egypt, the locusts of Arabia and the
Mormon grasshoppers were considerable in num-
bers and something of devourers, but nothing
compared to the voracious legions of govern
ments and hungry hordes of officials that now
infest the United States. They have not only
devoured everything that human industry has
been able to create-they have forged forty
d-million-dollar debt against unborn
generations, and it don't seem to have made
mouthful for them or to appease for moment
their raging appetites. Now, what if coming
generations should happen to be just such in
fernal fools as we have been, and should want
a few thousand million governments of their
own, can they 60 on forging bonds and making
mortgages forever? The present plant of gov
ernments now established in the United States,
if it keeps increasing as it has done, will over
run and devour the universe, bankrupt the plan
etary system, sell the inhabitants of the fixed
stars into bondage and put mortgage on the
sun within the next ten years.
l pause for remarks, and all of you speak at
once, please, for, by thunder, there is no time
to lose. VIM. T. TABER.

live in the flesh live by the faith of the Son Of
God, who loved me and gave Himself for
me-"
My brother, if your interest in the welfare of
your fellow men expends itself in church reso-
lutions, but never gets to the ballot-box; if you
have plenty of time to sing and pray, but no
time to study the conditions which are making
hell of world God intended to be heaven;
if you bewail the miseries of your fellow men,
but have no time to consider what makes them
miserable and what can be done to relieve their
miseries; if you love your party so much that
you will continue to vote for systems which en-
slave your fellow men, you have no right to 60
to your churches and sing, "Christ liveth in
me-" 1t is not true. Christ is not living in
you unless His life is resurrected in your life
unless you are living and thinking and feeling
and acting and voting as He would live and feel
and think and act and vote, if He were here.
And it is no better to sing lie than to talk one.
Setting lie to music don't take the falsehood
out of it.
Jesus was very gentle toward sinners. When
His disciples would have called down fire from
He rebuked them When the sinful woman
knelt at His feet, He forgave her. When Peter
denied Him, He uttered no word of reproach.
When sinners crucifed Him, He prayed for
them. My brother, if you have no sympathy
for the sinner; if you feel that you owe no duty
to your fellow man because that man has done
wrong; if you withdraw your help from the
poor girl who has been crushed down into sin,
you have no right to sing, "Christ liveth in
me-" Christ's life has not been resurrected in
your life 1t is the Devil, and not Jesus, who
is living in you.
My sister, if your whole life is devoted to
pug dogs and fancy embroidery and ''social
functions" and balls and theatres, don't go
round to your church between times and sing,
"Christ liveth in me-" He is not living in you,
because your life is not a reproduction of His
life, and His life has not been resurrected in
YOU. Just think of woman whose time is
spent in caring for pug dog while thousands Of
her sisters are being driven by starvation to
shame, singing, "Christ liveth in me-" Why,
it's blasphemy!
lust think of the man who Expresses his
workingmen and defrauds them OF their wages,
claiming that Christ, the workingman, is living
in him. 1t is blaspheiny!
lust think of the man who is forming cor
ner in coal, so that the poor must shiver by
fireless CRATES, singing, "Christ liveth in me- y
1t is blasphemy!
lust think of the man who is engaged in q
conspiracy to raise the price of beef so that he
may make millions, while poor children &c
hungry to bed, singing, "Christ liveth in me.
1t is blasphemy!
Dearly beloved, the great crying need OF the
day is new resurrection of Jesus in the heart:
and lives of his protested followers Making
long prayers and singing sweet songs and talk
ing about how much ENJOYMENT there is in re
ligion does not make man Christian.
Christian is he in whose life the life that Chris
led when here OIL earth is lived over again.

Heney Is Convicted.

The jury In the Heney case, after
being out over five hours, brought in
a verdict Of guilty at 9:45 Saturday
night. The jury took six ballots be-
fore agreeing on their verdict. Five
OF these stood eleven to one for con-
viction, and on the sixth they were
unanimous Judge Hawley ordered
Heney to appear at 10 o'clock Tuesday
morning for sentence. The penalty is
from n to ten years imprisonment
in a United Stases prison to be desig
mated by the Judge.
The verdict will be considered Just
by all who believe that stealing from
the government if a crime. That
Heney took gold from the Mint and
converted it to his own use there can
be no doubt in the mind of anyone
who has watched his course since the
discovery of the Mint shortage. That
he was not alone in looting the Mint
is clearly proven by the desperate eff
forts made bp the old ring to keep
him out of Jail and by buying up and
running off the witnesses for the Gov
eminent. Innocent men do not en-
gage in such criminal work.
The Reno Journal in discussing this
phase of the case, says: "Now the
question is will he make a full con.
fession and tell who his accomplices
were? Men who have been employed
in the mint say it vas impossible for
any n person to have stolen any
considerable amount of gold or silver
from any of the departments without
the knowledge of others" Will He
ney tell who these persons are?"
Whether Heney c~onfesses or not
the Government should continue its
efforts until the whole gang are placed
behind the bars to keep him company

First Sight of Il Railroad Train.

A country boy who was brought up
in the remote regions of Dun Glen
had occasion to accompany his father
here a few days ago. The morning
after his arrival, when saunterlng in

was stopping, he beheld with wonder,
ing eyes a train go by. For a mo-
ment he stood staring at it with as

the saloon of the hotel, where his
