More Heresy at Andover.

Rev. W. H. Ryder. d. D., professor OF
New Testament literature at Andove1
Theological Seminary is accused of hold
ing and teaching views on the subject OF
the person and nature of the second mem
Der of the Trinity that are not in strict
and literal accordance with the Language
of the creed of the seminary. There is nc
hesitation on his part in affirming be-
lief in the divinity of the Lord Jesus
Christ. The dispute is not so much re-
garding definition The exact and precise
metaphysical distinction between God the
Father, God the Son and God the Holy
Ghost. is one over which theologians have
puzzled and contended for many centur-
les. Probably they will go on doing so to
the end of time Prof Ryder is..admitted
on all hands to be a Christian gentleman
of high character, perfect sincerity, great
abili and ample learning. He believes
that the views which he holds and teaches
are honestly, fairly and clearly consistent
with his obligations to the Andover creed.
But some other people do not think So.
The members of the board OF trustees,
which includes a number OF clergymen OF
foremost standing in the congregational
church, such as Rev. DIR. Alexander Nc
Kenzie of Cam bridge Rev. DR.. L. +.
Fiske of Newburyport, and Rev. j. G.
Vose of Providence made thorough in
yestigation and unanimously pronounc1ng
themselves to be satisfied of Prof. Ryder S
theological soundness. What view the
board of visitors, before whom he has
been called to answer, will take remains
to be seen.

The latest trust to get under way is the
paper trust The scheme is not quite
complete, but the plan is to purchase
enough of the mills to enable the trust
to control about half of the output Of
newspaper. With this control they think
they will be able to dictate the price of
paper Like all trusts this one processes
not to intend to increase the price, but
seeks only to cheaper production and re-
form certain abuses. Indeed if one accept
ed trusts own description of itself one
would believe it was a philanthropist in
disguise 1t is fact, however, that
the trust has not done SO much mischief
as it was frequently predicted that it
would 1t has really had less control of
prices that it thought it would. The
strong public sentiment against it has
held it in check, and it has rarely got
that degree of monopoly which is neces-
sary to control prices. Outside of the
Standard Oil Company we doubt if there
is a single one of the SO called trusts that
h as accomplished what the projectors an
ticipated. The country is too big for one
man or set of men to control the price
of anything the supply of which is prac-
tically unlimited. A great many men
have tried it, with the only result of
putting themselves into bankruptcy.

The Hon. Joseph H. Manley says he
hopes to see the Southern delegates to
the national Republican convention di-
vided in their preferences for Presidential
candidate. sit would be extremely I'M
fortunate, he adds, ''for the party to
have the Southern delegates in the next
convention solid for any one candidate. 1t
would be more so for the man whom they
might support In my opinion it would
be almost fatal to his chances of success
before the convention. Support of this
sort defeated Mr.. Blaine in two national
conventions and cost him the presidency.
States that have Votes to burn in a
national convention, but none in the
electoral college, cut a big figure in
naming the candidate and often work a
serious injury in the party.

Nothing from official sources, either
Spanish or rebel, concerning the war in
Cuba is worthy of credence But an oc-
casional letter from private source gets
by the censors and gives us a glimpse Of
the true situation. The Concord Monitor
prints such letter received by Gen. A.
S. Twitchell, whol v a. forlnely American
consul at Santiago. In this letter which
Gen. Twitchell says is written by per
fectly reliable person, the engagement at
Bayamo is described as Spanish rout,
and it is claimed that fully one hundred
white men of Santiago belonging to the
best families have recently Joined the
rebel forces. An epidemic of yellow
teverssprevails at Santiago and the Spanish
aoldiers are dying at the rate of eight OF

The free silver Democrats say that they
are going to insist that the next Demo-
cratic candidate for the Presidency pledge
himself not to veto any bill passed by
Congress unless he believes that 1t con-
flicts with the Constitution. If they sue
coed in finding a man who will agree to
do that they will have found one that Is
utterly unfit to be President. The Con-
stitution has made the President part
of the legislative machinery and an agree
ment on his part of the kind these silver
Democrats suggest would be practically
an q agreement to fail to perform his
duty. No man of any self respect or
any sense of the obligation which a
President is under to the people Of this
country would for moment listen to
snch a proposition. The men must be
daft who would suggest such a thing
Too much silver, or too little, has made
these gentlemen mad.

Lord Wolseley who has just been ap
pointed commander-in-chief of the British
army to succeed the Duke Of Cambridge,
was the leader of the expedition that set
ont for Khartoum to rescue Chinese
Gordon. The expedition was a failure,
and it was publicly charged at the time
that it was Lord Wolseley's incompetency
that made it such. Probably if military
knowledge and skill had alone been con
sidered in the matter Sir Frederick
Roberts and not Lord Wolseley would
have been selected But pulls count for
something in England as well as in

States, This ought to be worth on the
farms of the country, on an average, 20
cents bushel, OR $780, oOo, 900. Ii the
European grain crop is short, and the
English harvest is known to be SO, our
exports should re enormous, insuring a
balance of trade in favor of the United
States. The corn crop will be thrown
upon the market at lower prices than q
cents a bushel. Arrangements are being
made now to assist such farmers as are
obliged to SELL The corn crop of last year
was only 1900, 900, coo bushels III round
numbers, and brought the country little
more than $780, 900, 900. The wheat crop
of the United States for 1895 is estimated
at 800, 900, 900 bushels, and is worth at
this date about $780, 900, 600. -

The terrible explosion in the Denver
hotel appears to have been due to criml-
nal recklessness or incompetency or both.
A boy II years old, somewhat under the
influence of liquor is alleged to have let
cold water into the boiler when at almost
a white heat. If that be the true expla-
nation the culprit ought to serve term
behind the bars. But the responsibility
is not all upon him. The persons who
employed him, without investigating his
character and his competency, are culpa-
BILE too.

The selection of the Hon. Josiah Quincy
to preside over the Massachusetts, Demo-
cratic convention looks as if there was ito
be no attempt this year to concilitate the
Mugwumps, but that the show was to
be run purely by the ''cold toed boys, =
who love Mr.. Quincy for the way in
which he hustled the ''rascals" out when
he was assistant Secretary of State.

Commissioner Roosevelt made tour OF
inspection Sunday to see how the excise
law was being enforced, and he reports
that in his opinion 81 per cent. OF the
saloons were closed. The remaining six
probably did a little business but with
extreme caution. Mr. Roosevelt says
that the rich saloon keeper, with big
political influence, who kept open in de-
fance of the law in New York. is thing
of the past.
