Spiritual Meaning.
Christ is the Lord He has household
the Church. For conducting its affairs and
helping its members lie has appointed minis
tiers. They should be faithful and wise.
They should give careful attention to the
wants of their people. Each must furnish his
congregation with all the supplies (goods)
given him by Christ for distribution. Ho is
always to act as though Christ might step IN
at any moment. If he live he shall be
happy in his work and blessed of God at length
or in the next place of existence. Conscious
ness of Christ's possible entry at any moment
renders the minister faithful and kind. For
getting the fact, however, that Christ is liable
to step in any hour, the faithess servant may
become overbearing, and, where the law and
custom permit, prove very domineering and
even cruel. Such recreant minister Will DO
severely punished. He shall receive many
hard strokes The remedy for such deplorabie
conduct is the being in q constant state OF
watchfulness.

buiIded a house in the FIRST of the sun
It's beauty was bright as tho day;
But the shadows came down ere my labor wal
done
Will they ever be lifted awayf
/ buiIded house in the land Of the rose
1t see med that they never would fade;
builded a house where the amaraDth grows,
But my heart ia its heart was afraid.
The easements were fretted with silver and gold,
And gems beyond price and compare;
Was never so beauieous temple of old,
For the soul of the builder was there.
But the sun faded out of the heavens one day,
And the rose pinned away and she died.
Two the glorious light in the windows grew gray
As the Terror passed by with his bride.
The sun comes never again to the sky,
No more shall the amaranth bloom,
And mockingly echoes my passionate cry,
FROM the awful abyss of the gloom.
The palace joyously buded my love
Is moudering slowly away,
The owlet is nesting where nested the dove
But memory cannot decay!

EASTERN BLoCKHEAD EDITORS

The following is an editorial in the
Omaha World Herald, Mr.. ". J. Bryaan's
paper:
The London Chronicle is to be credi--
ted with more knowledge OF political
conditions in America than London pa
pers generally possess. 1t says:
THE newspapers of the eastern states
diagnosis of the vast silver move
ment."
This is literally true. The eastern
papers either shut their eyes and close
their ears to the silver movement in
the western, middle and southern states
or they were incapable of recognizing
a great political revolution when it was
fully developed
For several weeks after every inteT1f-
gent observer in the west-Republican
and Democrat, Populist and Mugwump
had reached the conclusion that sill
yer would triumph at Chicago, the New
were publishing column after column
of nonsense about controlling the Chi
cago convention for gold.
When they did finally awake to the
true situation, the complexion Of the
convention was fully fixed and still
they made themselves more ridiculous
by suggesting ways and means to con
VERT the silver delegates or "compro-
mise" with them.
The New York papers and those
which copy from them have simply
been absurd in their diagnosis of the
silver movement. They have under
rated its strength, it's intelligence and
its permanency. Even now, after the
rude awakening at Chicago, they are
only coming to their senses slowly.
Their keen correspondents are report
ing the truth to them, but their editors
in many cases, still fail to realize that
a great political revolution is impend-
ing, and that it now has, or is rapidly
gaining, the sanction and support of the
American people

head impressed US as one Of those men
who. in theory. has a clear head, but
who is totally blind to actual conditions
that rest before his eyes. He talks
slowly and smoothly and rolls his head
gently from side to side, reeling off
yards of words with an air of great
wisdom. We do not think his address
was calculated to change a vote. He
is not the kind of man who ought to
represent Kansas in congress and it is
very little fighting forewestern interests
he will ever do. He has very little
capacity or inclination that way He
is evidently highly educated and flu
emit talker on subjects which do not in
terest the public. and is altogether too
aristocratic to represent people who
have but recently emerged from their
sod houses.

LEWELLING FOR BRYAN.
Says There is No Reason Why Popu-

St. Louis, July 20.-EX- Governor Lew
cling of Kansas is at the Lindell- He
is to be seen in the vicinity of the head
quarters of the Bryan supporters. He
is very much in favor of the indOrse-
ment of the Democratic nominee, and
to a reporter said: Il do not pretend
to represent the Kansas delegation in
what I say, but only speak my personal
preference when 1 favor an tndOrse-
ment Of Mr.. Bryan. The Democratic
party is one of regeneration and re-
form. This is a regenerated Democ-
racy with which we have to deal, and
they have returned to the original prin-
cipIes of Jefferson. The Populists have
always claimed that they were not
seeking offices, but they wanted meas
ureS more than men.
They have claimed that the party
name is not an important consideration
Now we are presented with a platform
and candidate both of which represent
in a very large measure the principles
is true, as 1 have stated, there is no
good reason why we should withhold
our Endorsement of the Democratic
nominee. To be sure, there are some
things which we would have been
pleased to see added. to. the Democratic
platform, but for a union of all the
elements doubtless the POpuliSt party
itself would have been willing to make
concessions. Indeed, the Chicago plat
form is more radical than the Fesolu-
lions adopted by the state convention
which sent US here.

Chicago Record: Glasgow is one of
the cities which own their own street
railway systems in their entirety, and
for over a year its lines have been Oper-
ated under municipal control. A re-
cent report shows the last year has
been profitable one. Fares have been
reduced and new plant has been put
in, but in spite of the great outlay the
accounts of the street railway system,
or tramway system, as it is called in
Great Britain. show a balance for the
year on the profit side. The success
of the Glasgow experiment in the street
railway line is a standing rebuke to
American cities which allow private
corporations to charge fares and make
enormous profits from the use of public
streets.
