Christ as a Politician.

Smiths Quarterly for October has
1, above prominently shown on its
lie page. 1t shows him to have
en- for all the years of his life
boring in the social and politi-
- field for the elevation of man, al
US striving to subordinate selfish
less to Justice. In his every day life
ne was always, the work says, defend
ing the oppressed, and opposed by
those who profit at the expense of
che weak. When the selfish rich came
10 him with their.mock pietY, he told
them to sell, and give to the poor.
He said: when thou makest a ban
quet; invite the poor, the MANNED,
the lame, and the blind" requiring
goodness in proportion to the ability
to perform. To read the bible as a
political record of Christ, is graphic
portrayal of many characters in the
present social strife. To read it care
fully helps one to decide whether he
should belong politically to the class
who are robed ''in purple and fine
linen, and who fare sumptuously
every day." or whether they prefer
i Christ or Barabbas, and it will help
one to decide where he belongs in the
contest between liberty and op-
preston, between justice and greed.
The-wssfk says: Power implies re-
sponsibilities to society and to its in
dividual members. Society furnishes
the purchasers, and the labor by
which fortunes are made. Society
makes its own rules Qaws) in this
country, and no member should be
permitted, much less empowered by
such laws, to work injury upon any
member. The laborer is just as much
entitled to the aid of the law, as is
The employer"
The teaching of Christ is that those
who are in politics for wicked pur.
poses, and who profit by dishonest
a methods, would have the people be.
lieve that because no church should
control the politics of the country
that no humane feeling should have
consideration among men. The great.
er part Of aristocracy is of the same
kind now as those that crucified
Christ, beheaded John the Baptist
and have strewn the earth with
martyrs in the cause of human liber
ty, defeated Justice and have com.
mitted all manner of crimes. The
work has new idea of Immortality
that the lives lived from their effects
are for good or evil through the end
less generations of man, and thu,
good in the life of Christ has become
9 immortal, as will be the good il
every human life. In the January
number some of those engaged il
crushing labor will have special at

Taking these two outsivings together,
of men who talked with President Nc
Kinley about the matter yesterday, Ii
IL inferred tnat the president has made
up his mind that IL. as he expects, M.
Calhoun's report confirms those Of Con-
sui General Lee and the general news
paper statements, he will act promptly,
with view to ending the hostilities in
Cuba, probably by Intervention rather
than by the recognition OF belligerency.
InumatiOAs Of this purpose were given
by him to the members Of the foreign re-
lations committee, who called on him
at his invitation yesterday, and these
intimations induced Senator Morgan 70
acQuiesce in his request that the Cuban
resolution be sent. for the present, to that
committee.
AS Mr. Calhoun is expected to return
from Havana by June Is, President Nc
Kinley's Cuban policy may be deter
mined and announced by July 1. AS it's
forecast IL pleasing to Senators Lodge,
Foraker and Morgan, IL will be what is
called vigorous" and in the interests of
the Cuban insurgents rather than of
Spain, but the end sought will be to bring
about peace in Cuba without provoking
war with Spain.
Cuban purchase of Cuban indepen-
dence will be the line which President
Mckinley will, 1t is said, favor, and he
does not now desire the acquisition of
Cuba by the United States.

eThe Swiss Mission.

Washington, May 13.-Secrstary Sher-
man and Senators Lodge. Cullom and
Burrows took up most of the time of the
president yesterday, so that compare
lively few of his other callers had an op-
portunity to see him. The contest for
the Swiss mission, according to the pre-
vailing White House gossip, Is said to
lie between Mr.. Leishman Of Pittsburg,
former president Of the Carnegie Steel
company. and Brutus Clay OF Ken
lucky. The friends of the latter assert
most positively IL Leishman does not
press his claims Clay will be nominated.
II is understood that DR.. Hunter Of Ken
lucky, who made the protracted fight for
United States senator as the Republican
caucus nominee. but who ultimately was
compelled to give way In the interest Of
harmony, has been informed by the
president that he would be glad TO be-
stow upon him some fitting position.
DR.. Hunter, however. has not yet de-
cided whether ne desires position. The
Chilian mission, which his friends asked
In his behalf, has been promised,

Hart Under surveiilance.

Philadelphia, May 13.-Captain John
d. Hart, who was convicted and sen
fenced to two years Imprisonment for
having aided in a filibustering expedi-
ton to Cuba. but which sentence was
suspended pending an appeal to the
United States court Of appeals, was yes
terday brought into the United States
circuit court on a bail writ sworn out
by William Weinert, one OF Hart's four
bondsmen. Hart Is under $500 bail. and
Mr.. Weinert informed the court that he
had reason to believe that Hart intended
sailing on the steamer Ethslred for Port
Antonio, Jamaica, for the purpose of
evading the sentence, and that his bail
would then be forfeited. Weinert asked
the court to be released as bondsman.
Judge Dallas refused to grant the re-
quest, and held the matter over until
tomorrow. Hart admits that he in
tended sailing. but says he was going on
q business trip. Hart is now under sur
veillance Of a private detective, who was
engaged by Weinert, and who has orders
not to lose sight Of him.

Civil Service Association Holds It's Annual
Meeting.


New York, May 49, The annual meet
Ing Of the Civil Service Reform ASSOC
citation of this city was held In the City
cab last night. The following officers
were elected: President, Carl Schurz:
vice presidents, Joseph IL. Choate, Dor
man B. Eaton, Edwin l.. Godkin, ID.
Willis James. A. II. MacDonough, Os-
wald Ottendorfer. Theodore Roosevelt
and Oscar Strauss; secretary. George
McAneny; treasurer, A s. Frissel. After
the election Of officers the chief business
OF the evening was the adoption Of the
secretary's report.
The report dwelt largely with the ef-
forts being made in Washington to in
duce President Mckinley to modify the
civil reform rules adopted during the
Cleveland administration and the pres
ent situation In Albany. The associa-
tion holds that any modification OF the
rules would be a breach of the promises
made by President Mckinley in his letter
of acceptance and inaugural address.
The association also maintains that the
proposed civil service bill i'm the hands
of Governor Black. awaiting his sigma
ture, would be impracticable. 1t could
rot be honestly carried out, the associa-
ton claims. because II would require a
duplication Of the civil service in every
department Of the state. and instead of
an applicant for an appointment hav-
ing to pass one examination, as now. he
would be required to pass more than a
score. The association points out the
probability that even after passing all
these examinations the man whose ap-
pointment was desired would be rated
so high as to effectually destroy COM
petition and exclude all others. The as
ISOLATION intends, should Governor
Black sign the bill, to carry the matter
into the courts at once and test it's con-
etitutionality
