pARKHURsr AND POLITICS.

The Detroit Tribune rejoices at the an
 nouncement that the Rev. Dr. Parkhurst
 has decided to retire from politics, says
 the Omata World, and confine his efforts
 snlelv to the preaching of the gospel
 It intimates that the truly good doctor
 is a little tardy in making up his mind
 to retire from politics, but it is certainly
 mistaken in it's conclusions that his re
 tirement is proof that minister has no
 nlace in politics The trouble with Dr.
 Parkhurst was not the motives that
 prompted him to enter the polltlcal
 arena, but the methods he used. great
 many people cannot perceive the diner
 ence between carrying their politics into
 their religion and carrying their religion
 into their politics. But there is a vast
 difference By religion Is not meant any creed or dogma, but that moral force
 which is the foundation of true Christ
 ianity. The chief trouble with politics
 today is that men who pose as moralists
 have stood aloof from participation In
 politics and allowed venal men and pro
 fessional ward workers to manage polit-
 ical affairs. To declare that politics is
 corrupt beyond redemption is to belittle
 the work of the Christianizing forces Of
 
 the nation.
 pr. Parkhurst is seemingly the victim of a mistaken idea of how to reform pol itics. Like the old fashioned preacher whose hair, hung and breeze shaken oyer hell and damnation," sermons are familiar to all who have read Edward Eggleston's Circuit Rider" He attempt ed to frighten people into attacking po- litcal evils instead of showing the mate rial rewards to be gained by quietly gathering at the primaries and the polls | to wrest the control of public affairs from | the boodlers and corruptionists. His mis- l take was one common with the temper i ance lecturers, who, instead of holding up to view the joys and benefits of tenn perance life, paint fire-framed pictures of horrors and eternal ruin. Dr. Park hurst made the mistake of holding up political corruption to public view, thus holding out to conscienceless men pie ture that would nerve them to greater | efforts to secure a share of the rewards I gained by corrupt politicians. What he l should have done was to hold up to hon. l est, Christian citizens a picture of ma terial gain that would accrue to them by l their earnest work in politics.
 | The retirement of Dr. Parkhurst from l politics is not an argument in favor ot keeping religion and politics apart. Rath- i CT it is an argument in favor of injecting into politics that Christianizing infiu- | ence that has made other branches of l public life better. Partisan politics has
 no place in the pulpit. but that species of | politics that works for the general good i should be catalogued with other Christ l ianizing influences, and when classed as l such, becomes a part of the duty that 1 rests upon every earnest minister of the 1 gospel.

The AlbertsYille Banner is the name of a new paper at Alb rtville Marshall coun- ty. The name of J.. D. Mcleod appears as editor and proprietor and J. H. Meigs as assoclate4editor. The salutatory reads as follows
 we come not with a long array of re- forms that We propose to inaugurate, nor have we long string of rash promises to make in the outset. For the benefit of the inqu.sltive we will say this much, we own our outfit and our ofiice-both are paid for. We belong in politics, to the democratic party, but think that popu- lites are entitled to vote their sentime nts without let or hindrance; that the re- publicars ought to hold the lppointive offices nntii Bryan chases Mckinley out of the White House in 1900, and, above everything else. that every man who will work ought to be furnished with plenty of it to'do. and. in return. should have a good living Regardless of politics.

ONE OFT TWO WAYS.


 The bladder wasscreatcdf for one pur- pose, namelys.a q feeepracle for the urine: and as such 1t Is not. able tosany form or disease except sby one of two ways The first way is from imperfect action Of the kidneys. The second way Is from care less local treatment of other diseases.
 ecHlEF CAUSE.
 Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kid neys is the chief causes of bladder troubles. So the womb like the bladder was created for one purpose, and if not doetored too much is not liable to weak ness or disease, except in rare cases. It IS situated back of and very close to the bladder. therefore any pain. disease or inconvenience manifested In the kid- neys, back, bladder or urinary passage IS often. by mistake. attributed to female weakness or womb trouble of some sort. The error is, easily made and may be as easily avoided. To find out correctly, set your urine aside for twenty-four hours; sediment or settling indicates kidney or bladder trouble. The mild and the ex- traordinary effect of Dr. Kilmers Swamp Root, the great kidney and bladder reme- dy IS soon realized. If youtneed a medl- cine you should have the best At drug gfsts 50 cents, and $1. You may have a sample bottle and pamphlet, both sent free by mail

GLADSTONE LEFT OUT.

The queen has refused 10 invite Clad stone to take part in the jubilee. This is a cut direct, and will not please the masses of the English people. The queen and Gladstone have not been harmoni- oue. She does not approve of his demo- cratic ideas. In a personal controversy she exclaimed: "I am the queen of Eng landw Gladstone replied: "I am the peo- pie of Engand." She never forgave the great commoner this cut.
 Gladston has not spared his criticism of the policy of the British government, especially in the Armenian massacre. The queen should rise above personalities and make the jubilee natfonaL The pres ence of Gladstone would be reminder of the progress toward a democracy fhat England has made in half century, such as the extension of the suffrage, recogni- tion of labor adoption of the closure rule in parliament, esc.
