will imply the right for other nations
to Interfere with affairs on this conti-
ncnt, and 80 the Monroe doctrino IN
jeopardized. No, mol President Glove
land Expressed the sentiment Of every
intelligent and patriotic American
when he numbered from the white
house n warning to all nations that
there Ia not one acre or one inch more
of ground on this continent for any
transatlantic government to occupy
And by that doctrine we stand
now and shall forever stand.
But there Is doctrine as much high
err than tho Monroe doctrine rs the
heavens are higher than the earth, and
that is the doctrine of Humanitarian
ism and sympathy and Christian help
fulness which one cold December mid
night with loud and multituainous
chant, awakened tho shepherds.
Wherever there Is wound IL is our
duty, whether as individuals or nations
TO balsam, whether there is a knife of
ASSASSINATION lifted it is our duty to
ward Off the blade. Wherever
men are prosecuted for their religion
IL is our duty to break that arm of
power, whether il be thrust forth from
Protestant church, or Catholic cath
edral, or a Jewish synagogue or mos
que Of Islam. We all recognize the right
on a small scale. IL going down the
road we find a rufiian maltreating
child, or a human brute insulting
woman, we take hand in the contest
If we are not towards, and though we
be slight in personal presence, because
OF our Indignation, we come to weigh
about 90 tons, and the harder we pun
ish the villain the louder our con-
science applauds us In such case we
do not keep our hands in our pockets,
that If we interfere with the
brute the brute might think he would
have Alright to Interfere with us and
so jeopardize the Monroe doctrine.
The fact is that that persecution Of |
the Armcnians by the Turks must be
stopped, or God Almighty will curse
all Christendom for its damnable indif-
ference and apathy. But the trumpet
of resurrection is about to sound for |
Armenia. Did | say in the opening |
that on one of the peaks OF Armenia, !
this very Armenia of which we speak,
in Noah's time the ark landed, accord
ing to the myth, as some think, but
according TO Gods ''say-so," lis
know, and that it was sitter long
storm of 40 days and 40 nights, |
called the deluRe, and that after
ward a dove went forth from that
ark and returned with an olive leaf In
her besk Even so now. there is am
other srk being launched, but this one
yoes sailing, not over a deluge OF wa
Ter, but deluge of blood--the ark OF
American sympathy--and that ark,
anding On Ararat, from its window
shall fly the dove of kindness and
peace, TO find the olive leaf OF return
ng prosperity, while all the mountains
" Moslern prejudice, oppression and
cruelty shall stand Is cubits under.
Meanwhile, we would like to gather all
he dying groans of all the 500, 900 VIC
inns of Mohammedan oppression, and
ntone them into one prayer that would
move the earth and the heavens, hun.
Ireds of millions Of Christian voices,
american and European, CRYING, D, God
lost High! Spare Thy children. With
mandate from the throne huri back
lpon their launches the horsesof the
Kurdish cavalry Stop the rivers o.
Hood, With the earthquakes Of thy
wrath shake the foundations of the
alaces of the sultan. Move nli the
ations of Europe to command cessa-
ion of cruelty II need be, let the
'arships Of civilized nations boom
heir indignation. Let the Crescent
o down before the Gross, and the
Lightly One who hath on His vcsturc
nd on his thigh name written.
King OF Kings and Lord Of Lords, SO
orth, conquering TO conquer. Thine,
J Lord, is the Kingdom! Hallelujah!
