MIR. BAILEY AND M'MILLAN SQUAD.

In all seriousness it does seem 10 us
that the quarrel raging in the ranks Of
the Democratic members Of Congress IS
very similar to the famous difference
"betwixt tweedledum and tweedledee."
Mr.. Bailey and his faction say the Re
puplicans should be lef. TO carry out tneir
programme without interruption, to reap
the rewards II II IS successful and 10 bear
the country's reproaches il IT is a failure.
Mr.. Mcmillan and his followers say.
however, that the Republicans should be
prodded and embarrassed at every turn
and corner with ample exposure OF their
yinainous purposes whenever an opportu-
nifty is offered.
We are rather inclined to think that
the Bailey proposition is the more dig
niAed one and therefore the one that
would best accord with the true policy
Of self respecting party. The Repub-
leans have come into power and they
ought TO be given every reasonable op-
portunity to try their policy and test the
question whether IT can or cannot be
made TO succeed. Nagging at them in the
meantime is going 10 accomplish no pub
lie good. while exposure Of their villain
Gus theories is work thrown away. The
intelligent part Of mankind perfectly I'M
derstands that their theories Of govern
ment are destructive o. the best inter-
ests Of all the people.
But. after all. what is the difference
between the twc causes that justiies
members OF the same party splitting in
to factions where no principle is involved.
Men may have preferences for one
or the other but still be willing TO yield
their preferences il a majority OF their
party is opposed TO them. 1t is a mere
question of expediency and policy. and
no man can ever be so cock sure upon
a question Of that sort as to justify him
in making it as serious as a matter Of
principle.
The squabble seems TO us TO be little
more than matter OF personal rivalry.
1t should be dropped. 1t does not pre-
sent a seemly appearance to the world.

FAT II.

To-day the Christian world celebrates
and rejoices in the great and crowning
event OF the incarnation OF Christ-His
resurrection from the dead. Upon this
fact. It was conceded by the apostle TO the
Gentiles. depended the strength OF the
claim OF tho "Son OF Man for the truth
OF His divine mission and upon the wor-
ship Of men. An unrisen Christ, it was
plain, would mean death 10 the faith, and
so ST. Paul declared when he said IF

ment they may enjoy. To such there Is
lacking that essential element "faith"-a

And who can tell what faith is?
It were as vain to attempt to reduce the
description Of faith within the limits OF
svnogism as II were 10 judge OF the power.

The power OF the Christian faith can only
be estimated by It's results, and by this
rule. what IT has done for the world may
he Judged by the visible work OF the Chris
tan church-may be felt In the silent
and unseen consolation OF the broken
hearted-in the repentance OF the wayward
and the salvation OF the lost.
And despite all the fearful perversions
and expressions which have been done In

without the faith Of Christ?
To one who has lived under true Chris
tian dispensation the contemplation OF a
world without its influence would be ike

And yet there Is much 10 be done toward

Is THIS A CHRISTIAN NATION .

on Sunday following the Inauguration
OF President Mckinley, Bishop Newman
in his sermon stated that the United
States Supreme Court had unanimously
declared this TO be a Christian nation.
This statement was assailed by one DR.. w.
A. Crofiut, in a letter to one of the WASH
ington papers who took occasion TO say
that the United States Supreme Court had
done no such thing. Another writer, how
ever. has replied TO DR.. Croaut and has

claration was made by the highest court

THE EASTER SEASON.

II Is an interesting coincidence that the
Easter season This year and the Jewish
feast OF the Passover occur simultan-
eously. It is a case Of history repeating
itself, and the coincidence recalls stormy
times in the early church.
As the first Christians were derived
FOR the most part from the Jewish
church. it was natural that they should
continue to observe the Jewish festivals.
though in a different spirit. as commem-
orative Of events of which they had been
the shadows And so it happened that
the Passover, suggestive OF the thought
OF Christ, the true Paschal Lamb, be-
came the Christian Easter But quite
naturally a difference as 10 the time
OF its observance soon sprang up between
the Christians OF Jewish and Gentle de-
cent respectively.
The point at issue being the date OF
the termination OF the Paschal fast. The
Jewish Christians contended that this
fast would end at the same time as that
OF the Jews. on the fourteenth OF the
month Nissan at evening. and that the
Easter festivals should Immediately fol-
low. Irrespective Of the day of the week.
The Gentle Christians held however.
that the first day Of the week should be
identified with the resurrection festival.
and that the preceding Friday should be
kept as commemorative OF the CrucifiX-
ion. irrespective Of the date of the
month. the fast continuing until the mid
night OF the Saturday following. The re-
suit was that those who followed the Jew
ish rule and kept the fourteenth day
were called Quartodecimani and were
stigmatized as heretics. But in the alb
sence Of any authoritative decision as to
date TO be observed and the proper mode
OF calculating II. other discrepancies
arose. which led 10 controversies and
dissensions without end. For years the
question remained unsettled, and the dis
cussion became so angry that Poly
crates. Bishop Of Ephesus appealed To
Victor. Bishop Of Rome. asking to have
this matter decided once for all. The
councils were assembled with the result
that the feast OF Easter or the Resurrec-

What These Audiences Wants Exhibitions

OF fhe foNtf- U nat MOVE ihf ''''"s
1t is interesting 10 notice what pic
lures are the popular favorites in the
exhibitions OF the biograph, vitascope,
ciremetograph, and similar instruments.
The serpeEtine dances and high klcklng
get a moderate amount OF applause: the
military scenes get a good deal more the
march OF a procession down, apparently,
into the very teeth of the audience. Is
almost startling; but these are not the
things which receive an encore. AT two
recent exhibitions of this sort there were
only two encOres. One of these was a
burst OF enthusiasm over a View Of the
surf breaking on one OF the piers at Man
haitian Beach. The other was from an
audience that wanted TO see again the on
ward rush OF the Empire State Express.
The surf pictures seemed fairly 10 brihS
the smell OF the sea into the lmoke-cloud-
ed theatre. AS the wave began 20 gather,
form, and get an edge, the audience drew
I'm an eXpectant breath. And as the wa

ward with n force that sent up CLOUD

"Ah-h-h" The view OF the Empire state
Express was even more thrilling. AT frst
there was only the long line OF the rail-
road coming straight down the picture
and curVing off to one side at the front
Some section hands were at work on the
track. There was q spot in the distance
with a fine line Of smoke streaming away
from IL. IL grew with every second until
it was n throbbing engine pounding its
way right toward the audience. People
held their breath as the train swept to-
ward them, and it seemed an actual es-
cape when 1t swung off on the curve and
out OF sight
Next to these scenes, which portray
the working or some tremendous natural
force, the most popular ones are the
hOmely. everyday ones one or the most
delightful Of these IS a pillow fight among
four little girls They are in two cribs
with ratings around them. One Of the
children lifts herself up and, taking her
pillow. mlschievOusly bangs It down on
the head OF her bedfellow. At this. the
two in the other crib are highly delight
ed and promptly sit up in bed. holding. on
to the railing at the side. The unfor-
tunate one. who has just been whacked'
emerges from under the pillow and Is so
angry when she sees the other two laugh
ing at her that she snatches up a pillow
and knocks them both out of sight with
one fell swoOp. Then she turns her at
tention TO the original offender and hos
tinties are general until one Of the pillows
bursts and the whole picture IS Iul OF

With this wide variation, therefore,
Il is mere coincidence. as we have said'
that the Passover and the Easter season
fan this year upon the same time. Let
us hope. however. that 1t Is a happy
coincidence. and that 1t may be the oc-
casion Of strengthening the fraternai
and religious tic that binds together the
Jews and Christians of this community.
