The latest and most reliable
news from the eastern missionary
field shows, just what the LIGHT
has so long contended, that the re-
ports of Turkish outrages are greet
ly exaggerated and that the Turk
ish government is doing all in its
power to prevent persecution of
the Christians and preserve the
peace between them and the other
religious bodies in that mixed
community. This information
comes authoritatively from the
very fountain head Of knowledge
as to the missionary work in that
section. The manifest truth, that
it is impossible to invade any re-
ligious community, for the pur'
pose of destroying the faith of its
people, without creating, disturb
ance, is lost sight of and the Chris
tian missionaries engaged in this
work are the real aggressors. 1t
is not question Of truth or falsity
in the several religions that come
into contact, but it is question OF
the natural result of the inevitable
antagonism Of two religions thus
brought into hostility.

Missouri legislature is convened

pose of securing such legislation
as will for all coming time pre-
vent the legislature being at the
mercy of a paid lobby. II the state
OF Missouri can effectually prevent
the formation and maintence OF a
lobby to influence members of the
legislature in matters of legisltion,
it will have set an example that
the sister states cannot follow any
too quickly or closely. Exclude
such unfriendly influences from
the legislature and there will be no
need of continuing the sessions for
weary months, eXhausting the
patience Of the people and putting
every interest in fear OF some un-
friendly enactment that will
practically kill its prosperity. The
lobby is curse, and yet it is at
times a real good. None the less
it is an Legitimate method of
securing legislative action and its
destruction would positively bene-
fit the country. Missouri will be
watched with interest as she leads
off with her anti-lobby foot and
the message Of the Governor as a
spur to action.

The city government is only the
agent Of the people of the city for
the proper transaction Of its bust
ness and for the maintenance Of
all Of its necessary functions. The
people are behind the Council and
Administration and must see that
they are not prevented from per.
forming the duties which they
were elected to discharge. Money
for carrying on the city enterprises,
providing for the cleanliness and
healthfulness Of the city, the pro-
lection OF the people, alike from
fire, flood and violence, and all else
that is legitimately within the
purview Of the government, it is
the business of the people to fur
nish. For this purpose they levy
taxes on themselves and provide
for their collection. Not to furnish
the needed monies for the work OF
the city is to repudiate the obliga-
ton that the citizens owe their
own agents, that is to themselves.
Pay your taxes. Furnish the city
government with the necessary
funds to do its work and hold it
accountable for the manner in
which it does that work, but do
not withhold the means Of life
from your own servants and then
expect them to do what you have
by your own inaction rendered il
impossible for them to do.
