RELIGION AND BUSINESS,


There should be no conflict be-
tween business and religion. The
trend of religion is eyer in the d.
rection of prosperity. A man ought
ever to be as religious selling wheat
or sugar as he Is at prayer meeting
and If he is not this religion is d
snare and delusion. Religion is
the nurse of economy, the patron Of
of industry, the guardian of integ
rity, and is a pledge of and a guide
to success, -Rev. @. II. FitzwiiIiams

Some of our contemporaries seen
to have conceived the Idea that The
Review is rending its neither gar.
ments in an effort to defeat Bryan
and Sewall. This is a mistake. Th,
Review is doing nothing of the kind
but it can not and will not advocate
doctrines that it believes to be both
undemocratic and dangerous to the
welfare of the nation. Those who
chose to swallow the Chicago plat
form at one gulp, and without max
ing a WY face, have a perfect right
to do so. Biloxi Review.
There is neither a moral nor a
political principle that requires
government to protect the debtor

notions with party platform. And

Whether Russia and Turkey have en-

Internal revenue receipts as well as
customs receipts under the Wilson law
have disappointed expectation. The
whisky tax was increased from 90 cents
to 81 10 a gallon. and yet the falling on
in receipts from this source disturbs
the treasury officials. who were count
ing on an increase.
Whatever other reasons may exist, re-

many to take the chance OF detection.
The higher the tax the greater the In
dueement to dodge 1t. 1t was increased
by the Democratic Congress in order to
make up for the reductions in customs
duties. Duties on imports can be laid
so as to make foreign producers con-
tribute to the support Of our govern

home industries. Internal taxes are n
burden on domestic industries and can
never be anything else.

right OF the legislatureof California to
pass the act which permits districts to
issue bonds to construct irrtgattug sys.
tens. Under this act bonds have been
Issued to the extent Of about 10000.
one OF the districts refuses to recog-
nize the obligation, insisting that the
act is u violation of the constitution.
General Harrison appears for the bond
holders. Whether the act Is OR is not
valid under the constitution Is a ques-
ton for the supreme court to determine
That the benefeIaries OF those bond
sales have profited by the transaction
and should respect their obligation is
clear enough. The money was put in
those bonds in good faith. To seek n
way to repudlate the obligation is as
disgraceful a way to pick pockets us can
be imagined.
The people OF California should pray
for the defeat of this scheme OF spolIa-
ton. for It's success will make investors
afraid to put or to keep money in that
state, lest they be sand-bagged out OF 1t.
