How many men viii tomorrow re-
frain from voting according to the die
tates of their consciences and in ac-
cordance with what they believe to be
right, because of a fear of calamity to
the country which is predicted by each
party in case the other is successful?
Doubtless there are believers in the
free silver theory who VIII vote for
continuation of existing conditions be
cause they fear the results of a change.
There are also men who viii surrender
every other principle for the sake Of
silver
The greatest calamity which has ever
befaIlen the Republic followed the cleo
ton Of Mr.. Lincmoln and yet there are
perhaps but few who voted for him
then, who would not do it again under
similar circumstances. because Lincoln
was right and the cause he represent
ed was right. Tt is probable therefore
that a large majority Of the voters viii
cast their ballots in accordance with
what they believe to be right. realizing
that nothing can be gained by temper
izing with wrong on the score Of i'm
mediate expediency.
Public questions are never settled
until they are settled right. The wrong
may triumph for q time-a long time
but truth viii at least prevail There
is no question now about who was right
and who was wrong in the slavery
matter

JOHN RROWN,S CHILD.
His Own Daughter Living in Destitu-

New York Nov 2-The Truth prints
Rust Of South Pasadena Cal, in be-
half of the bravest of the brave daugh-
ters OF John Brown of Osawatomie and
Fiarper's Ferry. She is now advancing
in years. with a family just growing
up around her and their little home in
-he bleak winter mountain region of
northern California has recently been
destroyed by fire.
The little band who captured Har-
per's Ferry were nearly all killed on
the spot. and the remainder have all
passed away except Annie Brown Ad-
ans, the youngest daughter OF Captain
John Brown, who kept the house at
the Kennedy farm for her father, and
who left for her home at North Elba
when the party was ready for the at
tack
Later she married and with large
family now lives on a. farm in the
mountains of northern California, poor
in worldly goods, bat rich in the recol-
lection of her fathers love of liberty
and justice.
A few weeks ago her house took fire
and was entirely consumed, with most
of the contents. The farm is mort
gagged and the family were all exerting
every energy to pay it off, when this
calamity came upon them They have
not one dollar with which to prepare a
house and northern winter IS close
upon them. Major Rust appeals to all
friends who may have been fortunate
to do something to assist this family
to build a house and to live through
the coming winter

BOARDING THE GOLD.
sub-treasury in New York Daily
Stormed by People.

New York, Nov. 2.-The hoarders are
still at it. A long line of men and wO-
men stood in front Of the paying teller's
window in the sub-treasury a gOOdly
part of today. They were there for
gold.
In spite Of the statement made by
treasury officials the teller must have
paid out an unusual amount of the vel
low metal in exchange for government
notes. None of the sums paid out were
very large, but they amounted to good
deal in the aggregate. They ran all
the way from $50 to $4,000 As fast as
those at the head of the line received
their coin from the teller others took
places at the other END, and the line
never grew less. In fact it grew longer
S the closing hour approached
The assistant treasurer thought that
there would not be any unusual with
draWals as the people in line were call
ing for sums comparatively insignif-
can't There might and there might not
be calls for big bundles of gold, he said.
during this last day of the cam
paign, but that is only matter for con-
lecture. The genial official seemed
loath to admit that the coveted coin was
being carried away faster than usual
today.
But judging from the appearance of
some of the folk in line it is quite safe
to conclude that such was the case.The
majority of the men seemed to be clerks
from the offices of business men. Many
of them carried money satchels in
which to carry the gold away.

1t was IN the early part of the eight
zenith century that the great exodus
from Germany began. For half a cen
fury the PaIatine, Suahia and Wurttem-
berg districts had been the battle-ground
for the armies Of Europe. The peasants
had seen their fields trampled down,
their stOrehouses ri6ed and their homes
burned, and to add to their miseries
came the cold winter of 1905 when
wine frOze IN the casks and their vine
yards were destroyed
William Penn, the founder of Penn
sylvania, had been among them twice
and had told Of his fair lands across the
sea Then the hegira began. They left
their homes by the thousands and came
down the Rhine to Rotterdam, where
they were transported to England. But
they had no means Of reaching the Eng
lish colonies in America and were de-
pendent on Engli charity. In October
of 1903 more than Il. 600 Germans were
living in tents. barns and warehouses
in London, and more were coming in
spite of the frantic efforts which We're
made to stop the exodus. They were
supported by public subscription until
they could be shipped of to the new
world.
The majority of them finally reached
Pennsylvania, and their descenda1 is
have been there ever since. but for al
most three centuries it has not been
necessary to ''pass the hat'' for any
body of Germans, much less for a Penn

DIR. WATsoN's LECTURE.

Theology the Theory of Religion-Hall
Packed to Hear Him.
Rev. DR.. Watson delivered the fourth
lecture in the Lyman Beecher course
yesterday afternoon on the subject,
Theology; the Theory of Religion"
The hall was completely filled and
many had to go away. Before COM
mencing with the subject of the days
lecture he supplemented his lecture of
Wednesday with discussion of the at
titude minister should hold toward
biblical criticism, and expressed liberal
ideas as to how minister should treat
the problem.
Speaking of theology he said there
were two extreme schools, the rational
and the evangelical, which are opposed
to any theology.
1t is nothing remarkable that these
extreme schools do not value your the
ology.
Theology is an absolute necessity in
the study OF rengIOn ana IN lne equip
ment of a minister apart from possess
ing other valuable qualities.
No man can ever preach at all with
out a system back of his life.
Some object to theology because they
say people don't understand it and
don't like it. The fact is the people are
a poor dumb body and all sorts of opin-
ions are foisted upon them. The people
do care for religion and this fact is
shown by the great interest which is
taken in religious novels and in other
ways 1t is not always easy to tell
what people do want, but there is one
thing they will have and that is the
ology.
If minister cannot furnish his hear
ers with the theology they want they
will get it elsewhere
One thing that is quite requisite to
theology is style and it is a shame that
the masterpieces of theology possess so
little of literary beauty. There is no
reason why literature and theology
should be diverse.
The next lecture will be on Saturday
on the subject, The New Dogma
