habit of mincing language when he
wants to tell his congregation what he
is convinced bears the stamp of truth.
Peoples Institute on the west side has
been overlooking with enthusiastic
voters who listened and will have more
opportunities to listen to preachers at
lacking the delusions of free silver
Let the dead bury their dead:
let some good neighbor whisper the
last words of consolation to the dying;
postpone the baptism of the little one
the pastor is on the stump working
for William Mckinley and the gold
standard. Let us read some more from
this remarkable and epoch making
article:
Among those who will and have ad-
advised their parishioners against dan

of the free silver party may be named

1t is well to speak the truth. When
ever the millionaires. of Chicago as
semble around a banquet board and
prepare for a few hours of over-eat-
ing and a champagne debauch, they
generally select some one of the above
list of divines to offer up a blessing.
Many Of these divines oft partake even
too freely Of the good things poured
out by the attendant lackeys
One is the retained divine" of Mr.
Philip Armour, the founder and chief
beneficiary of the beef trust.
Mr.. Hanna has arranged that the
divines shall have help in the following
way:
IF the ministers do not place suf-
ficient emphasis on any important point
the religious press will fill the want.
Every religious journal in this city is
delivering hot shot into the free sill
yer ranks, although one must read be-
tween the lines. The Interior, the rep
resentative Presbyterian paper. will
come out in its next issue with a strong
editorial denouncing the attempt to
make the fight one of classes, as Bry
an is now doing. Editor Gray does
not mention names, but the position
is plain in the editorial which is given
in full below. The Standard, the Bap-
fist organ, will also make a sharp
editorial campaign, and the Univer-
salist, as well as the Reform Advocate,
are going to add their influence in
behalf of honesty, honor and the pre-
servation of federal authority"
Let it not be supposed that this out
rageous conspiracy can be consummated
without the vigorous protest of the
American clergy. That they are not
yet ready to bow the knee at the dicta-
ton of Wall street and the money
powers is evinced by a significant vote
taken at Terre Haute, Ind, last Mon
day. 1nits article the Chicago Post says:
Before the final adjournment of the
northwest Indiana Methodist confer
ence at Terre Haute, Ind, yesterday a
resolution was introduced decrying the
efforts of the Popocrats to make the is
sue one between capital and labor. Bish-
op Newman advocated it's adoption, and
the measure was passed by a vote of
80 to "a. At Indianapolis not many
miles away from the seat of the confer
ence, Bishop John Hazen White an
nounced yesterday that he would in
struct all the ministers in his diocese to
oppose the reputation of honest debts
and the free coinage of silver"
Upon the courage of those ministers
whose sphere of work is removed from
the all-corrupting influence of corpor-
ate wealth, depends the fate of the
Christian church of America. The
average city minister is already the
subsidized and willing tool of monop-
oily. This is harsh thing to say, but it
is Gods eternal truth.
