really moral beings only in proportion
as our lives and conduct are under the
guidance OF the moral sense.
One great problem of the new era is to
raise the people from the legal to the
moral plane-to live not so much IN ac-
cordance with the constitution or ne
state as with the constitution OF man;
One of the most stupendous hum bugs and
absurdities OF the age is the slavery OF
our modern courts to legal precedent
ransacking the musty volumes OF an
tiquity for days and weeks to determine
simple questions Of justice which the
honest conscience of q modern boot black
would settle in two minutes.
Again the souls of tho people are still
more sadly lost in slavery to eccleslasti-
cal institutions. For ages they have
bowed in pitiable servitude to the crude
superstitions of barbarous ages because
the DEGREES of popes and priests and
councils have fastened their dogmas up
on the wo Id from age to age. till ny the
laws of hereditary transmission and early
training the very babies. pagan and
Christian alike, are nursed on the
breasts of superstition. rocked in the
cradle Of religious bigotry. schooled in
an atmosphere of servility to prlestly de-
nomination and confirmed at adult age
in hopeless subjectiou to ecclesiastical
institutionalism. What shall man be
profited if he should gain the whole
world, ana yet lose his soul in the vest
pocket of priest?'

The time has come when all institu-

eral. material or sp:ritual-if they do not
stand for justice. righteousness and the
welfare of the people here in this world
have outlived their usefulness and for
feited their right to existence and the
reason of their being. Talk about the
gospel of Christ and the blessings of civ
ilization. Where are they? In the
churches and the states of the world?
No. What then have we? In the church
we have creeds. ceremonies, mysteries
and symbols. In the state we have pol
itics and public plunder. Never shat we
have the true church and the true state
till the Sermon on the Mount and the
Declaration OF Independence become
more popular. Never will the world be
saved till the people cease to lose their
souls in a blind adherence to traditional
politics and traditional religion.

Y. W, c, A. Meeting

The gospel meeting of the y. W. c. A..
was held at 107 North Spring street yes
teleday afternoon. 1t was under the lead
ership of Mrs. Z. b. Marvin of the Fist
Baptist church. and was a Bible reading
based upon Luke 9-23. "And He said to
they all, If any man will come after me
let him deny himself and take up his
cross daily and follow me-
Mrs. Marvin said that the first require
ment is self denial. This is the most en-.
phatic utterance OF Christ to His disciples,
and this daily cross must be something
that needs constant overcoming. Not
only because Christ commands it. but
from a higher motive, and that is our
love for Christ.
Mrs. Marvin: Phil. 3:7. s, 8; Matt. 1924 i;
Mark, 8 :34 and 10:2l; Matt. 10:2S; Heb.
12:1 and 2; Rom. 1853.
As an example of what satisfaction we
would find in denying ourselves for
Christ the speaker said that we were
happier in doing something for friend
that cost US self-sacritice than IN any
Standardization and when this was done
for Christs sake there couli be no higher
ioy, As we look at Christ's life on earth
we see that il was full of this daily cross
bearing and His endurance of the cross
meant infinitely more than ours-we may
never understand the sacrifice that He
mauc LOT us. as Dcul dS Wo Gan 'Co uo
deny ourselves daily for Christ, knowing
there is wonderful Joy set before us

remembe that even Christ pleased not
Himself.
Fin closing Mrs. Marvin said: From
every one Of your lives a light can 60 out.
Your self-denial should wreathe youl faces
into smile that rs.evcry one you
meet, and be sure that for every act in
which self is crucified there is a record

Railroad Notes

The Trilbv mania has struck the rail-
roads at last. The Rock Island and
Peoria has put in service a passenger
train between Peoria and Rock Island
which is called The Trilby."
The Southern Pacific expects to be run
ming trains into Pasadena by July 1st, or.
maybe, says the Citrograph, a trife
sooner. This will give Pasadena four
competing lines to Los Angeles. Good
for the people, but hard on Pasadenas S
storekeepers.
The board of equalization for the state
of Colorado is trying to assess for taxa
tion all freight car lines whose cars enter
the state. A list of tho refrigerator car
companies. and all special cars used by
large manufacturers Is being prepared for
the Use of the hoard.
Citrograph: We must have an electric
railroad from Redlands to Hemet via
Moreno and San Jacinto. 1t can be built
cheaply, run cheaply. and would be a
paying institution within five years. be.
cause the whole country between would
soon be thickly settled.
All the beach trains yesterday did noble
duty for their respective owners. 1t is
estimated that fully 5000 people were car
ricd to the several resorts near by on the
ocean. Extra trains were brought into
service but the carrying capacity of the
roads was severely tested.
Under the terms of the one law affect
ing railroads which was passed at the last
session of the legislature Of the territory
OF Arizona. the construction of new rail-
road lines is encouraged by exemptng
item from taxation until March /. 1890.
This exemption applies to the property
itself ana the shares of stock issued on
that property.
A recent dispatch from San Antonio.
Texas, tells of a terrific hail storm which
swept over three counties and damaged
buildings many thousand dollars in sew
cral towns. Cattle were killed and crops
were destroyed. all of which we can be-
lieve: but we are also asked to accept the
statement that trains of the International
and Great Northern were blocked by the
hailstones on the track!
Some OF our newspaper friends arc dis
posed to poke a whole lot of fun at the
proposition of the Santa Fe to run pas
senger trains from Los Angeles to Chi
cago in two and half days, says the
Citrograph. But an average speed of only
forty miles an hour would land the pas
sepger nearly 200 miles the other side OF
Chicago in that time. The run is per-
tectly feasible, and we expect to see it
next fail, at the beginning of the season.

made in favor OF class as against the
rest of nation. Neither the rich nor
the poor, neither the clergyman nor the
farmer neither the workingman nor the
employer, should have laws made for his
advantage. At present powerful corpora
tions control Washington, state legisla-
lures and city councils, and labor organi-
cations are longing for power to initiate
the cornorations.
The works of greedy ami merciless cor
porations, and of reasonable and insane
labor organizations, are works of Satan.
for they all act as if the satisfaction Of
mans animal appetites was the principal
object of life. "A mans life consists
not in the abundance OF things he
possesseth, and man shall not live by
bread alone, but by every word of God.
Some rich people regard the poor as but
beasts of burden. and some poor people
hate the rich because they are rich. and
then proceed to initiate them in their
worst vices. Christ was not politician

lie came to spiritualze the human
race. He came to drive out of the temple
the den of thieves, not to clean the coat
of Herod or PLATE. His disciples expected
him to become an earthly king. There
is not sn,le hint in the gospels that
Christ desired the church to be political.
As matter of fact. Christ favored no re-
ligious organization. His disciples did
that.
The business of the Christian church IS
to teach and preach the gospel. and not
to enter into the arena of political strife.
The union of church and state has never
been successful. The theocracy OF Moses
was failure. The Roman Catholic
ch urch has lost its power through its at
tempts to WELD political influences. The
Church of England has failed because it
has more faith in the state than it has in
the gospel. The Puritan church in New
England which was state church, died
OF political niquity.
Ii the earth were really Christian, there
would be little need OF a state. If every
one prayed and strove to do right. would
there be any neeed for police, soldiers.

church can exert moral influence upon
all other institutions by doing it's own
spiritual work. The church has used ev-
cry device to win some of the masses;
but they have not that spiritual sense
which responds to the church s invitation.
They call the church bad names because
it Will not pander to their vices.

At the New Era Church

At the Church of the New Era the pas
tors topic was How People Lose Their
Souls. He said this was rather fiery
subject for new era preacher, but he
would treat it from the rational instead
OF the theological standpoint. While he
had ceased to bel eve in the loss OF souls
after the old fire and brImstone fashion,
he still held that people do lose their
SO lis in several ways. Using the word
soul for the thinking principle or ration
al nature in man. he would point out
variety of ways in which thousands OF
souls are lost.
One of the commonest ways in which
the souls OF people are lost is by enslave-
| ment to Institutional customs and author
| ity. Strictly speaking, all human beings
| are in a state of slavery in so far as their
rules of life, their codes of law and mo-
| tives OF action aIe outside OF themselves.
| 1t is a shocking statement, bat all exteI-
| nal rules, laws, constitutions and govern
ments are only so many forms of slavery
in which souls are lost. But before you
