Rev. Hunter on Good citizenship.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
G LAKE. Ind. Aug. 9.-Rev. r. v.
Hunter to-day delivered an address on
Good Citizenship. He began by saying
that the best citizen is the Christian
citizen. He held that every nation had a
special mission. Rome made law promi-
popf. Epn1aAd .afr;1;1of;xo - -~1~-t
America seemed raised up for freedom and
manhood, and self-gpvernment. We have
obligations resulting from our geographical
position and the peoples to the south
especially will Zoe influenced by as. We
have the best Of the worlds b~lood-mixed
blood is best. Our English is a language
| pliable enough to incorporate the thoughts
and words Of other languages. The in
telligence and thought of our people is high,
sf not the best. A'function of the citizen is
loyalty; not loyalty to party, but principle.
Parties exalt the tariff and money at the
expense of the liquor question. Mr.. Hunter
declared that there was no statesman in
Congress giving serious consideration TO the
labor question. The speaker pleaded earn
estly for common sense in municipal af-
people. Terre Haute, the speaker said, is
bad, but he believed If the Christian peo-
pie there. would cofnbines- as do the saloon
adherents, they could control every election
in the interest of good government. Good
| citizenship lies at the very foundation of
home missions. Mr.. Hunter is not a pes
simist. He believes the laws of Indiana
will be enforced within twelve months.
We are in the morning of the day when
| there will be better government.
Mr.. Hunter will return to his pulpit for
Sunday. but will come back next week to
| conduct the Endeayor convention, of which
| he has been made the chairman. The con-
~vention begins next Friday night, lasting
through Sunday.sJ Willis Baer will be
| in attendance.
