To show how hard up the Popo-
Gratis are for campaign misstate-

here Wednesday will conclusively
show, When the elegant McKin-
ley and Hobart banner was swung
across Main street, one en-
thusiastic Popocrat, in his en-
deavor to stir up trouble between
employees and employers, stated
that that was where the 10 per
cent reduction in wages went,
which remark was freely cir
culated If the party who made
the remark, or others who re-
peated it, desires to ascertain who
paid for the banner, they can in
spect the list, which shows that it
was paid for by about twenty-five
good Republicans and sound
money" Democrats. The list will
also show that the employers
slurred at paid but SO of the
amount.

The Junior Senator From Colorado
Says Submit to the Majority Rule
Washington, April Ex-senator Vol
colt, of Colorado. has written a letter
defining his position in regard to the
St. Louis convention
His letter in part, is as follows:
Washington, April IS.
irwin w. HoWbert, Chairman Republican
State Committee Of Colorado:
Ny Dear Sir when the Republi-
can state convention meets in Colorado,
May IA, it may decline to be represented
at st. Louis, or it may. select delegates
If the latter. the duty of the delegation
in my opinion, will be to attend the
convention, make the best fight possi-
bic for bimetallism in the committee on
resolutions and on the floor of the con-
vention if there shall be opportunity
for discussion before the whole cOnven-
ton. and after having insisted by every
proper method upon the duty of the
convention to declare IN favor of the
restorati of silver as a measure of
value equally with gold, to accept the
viii Of the majority OF the convention
and endeavor to secure the nomination
of the candidate most friendly to vest
ern interests.
There is no sacrifice I would not
make to secure the reconciliation Of
silver, not because Colorado is a pro-
dueer Of silver. but because in my Opin-
ion prosperity viii never return to us
until bimetallism, at the former ratio,
is re-establshed. and because the ap-
preciating value Of gold and the shrink
age of values which necessarily follow
this appreciation must bring only dis
aster and poverty and suffering to all
the people of this country who are not
lenders of money"

and we always will. for our sins, and
I do not believe that the time viii ever
come in the universe when we Won be
ashamed Of the sin that we have com
mitted. and that will be punishment
for US
In answer to the question: 'EWiu you
explain those passages where it is de-
clared that We have redemption
through His blood; where it is declared
that He is appropriation for our sins,
and not for ours only; and Will you
by those Verses?' Il am free to say,
brother that so far as the idea of an
angry God requiring blood to be salts
fed, that whole idea I reject abso-
lutely'
And yet those verses are there. Just
give US your idea of those verses; the
just God and the angry God; My blood
was shed for the remission of sin
Answer like the word which
the revised version substitutes for it
(atonement), reconciliation. And 1
have taken pains to look at every shade
of meaning that I have been able to
find in the ecclesiastic or in the Tesla
ment Greek, to find an idea to help me
in regard to this matter, and do not
find one but what viii show me that
reconciliation is always recOnciling
man to God and not God to man.
Question: am Just asking Tor the
meaning of those passages, and espe-
cialy that one where Christ is the Has
mes You know the meaning of that
Greek word
Answer think Jesus is the one who
comes down here to represent the di-
here to take such actiOnuauhhaf 90
vine mind and heart, that He opens
and shows the divine mind and heart;
that he comes here to take such action
or to cause such effect upon the hearts
of his rebelliOus people who are turned
from GOD, not from whom God has
turned that these are brought back into
relationship with Him in the image Of
whom they are first created.
