Gen. HarrisOn's Literary
Works.

The success of ex- President Har-
rison's articles in the Ladies'Ho
Journal has been so pronounced
that three additional ones will be
given. These are likely to prove
the most interesting of all that
General Harrison has written, in
the sense that they will be more
personal. His first paper will
show what "a day with the Presi.
dent at his desk" means, giving
glimpses of the President in his
private office. His second article
will deal with "The Sorial Life of
the President" which will cover
Presidents obligatory social dutie
and his part in CRATE State funct-
ions. The last article will 60 into
the Presidents domestic life and
portray "The Domestic Side of the
white House," All these articles
will be specially illustrated. This
will be the first time that an ex-
president of the United States has
ever written of his office and of
his home. The articles will all
appear in early issues of the La
dies Home Journal.

CONTINUANCE.

D,n nn spirit Of the Tenure Office
" :. is not yet dead, from the way
the respective Legislatures are
sending the old war horses back
to the United States Senate. Nor
does it appear that the Mckinley
victors are satisfied with what
they have won. We notice that
on last Thursday there were at
least dozen old political relicts
elected or got caucus nominations
for the Senate. The great dis
pasition to retain old polititions
in Office is a mistake that is too
often made. They become careless
and Indifferent from the cares OF
public life, thus losing interest in
all but their job, their constitu-
ents from one cause or another
| learn to admire them when in re-
atty there is nothing in them
Politics thou art pool Of cor
ruption into which many good
men have been submerged ant
furnished.

The Doctrine of AtOnement

IFor nineteen hundred years
the chief point of controversy be.
tween faith and unbelief has been
over the doctrine of the Atone
ment,n writes Evangelist Dwight
L. Moody in the Ladies' Home
journal. "Lying as it dose at the
very foundation Of Chris tianity, it
has been asailed in every age o
the history of the church without
avail, and remains to-day the most
universally accepted teaching of
our faith. Upon the finished
work of Christs Atonement the
entire structure of Christianity
rests.
"This truth has, prehaps, suffer
ed as much from the misguided
zeal Of it's friends as 1t has from
the attacks of it's enemies. The
human theories which have been
advanced in its defense have too
often been at the expense ofthe
Bible teaching regarding the char
acter Of God.
1t is a truth which we are to
accept, but are not commanded
to understand. Christianity is a
faith. not a theory. Its truths are
given by revelation and are not
the result Of speculation, the
only infallible guide to which we
may refer being what saith the
Scriptures'l That the Bible con
tains passages that / do not under
stand is to mea strong proof O.
it's Devine origin. Ii l could reat
the Bible as ! do any other book
what would hinder my contribut
ing toward writing a Bible
Thank God that in his word
find nights that ! cannot reach
depths that | cannot faith ON
breadths that ! cannot measure
We cannot hope to study b,
revelation of Gods word withou
finding what is supcr-human, fol
as Paul wrote to ThimOthy
without controversy, great is TIN
MYSTERY of godliness."

vineus or malt liquors, whenever
a majority Of the legal voters re.
siding therein shall so declare in
q special election held for. that
purpose in the manner hereinaftt
set out
1t is to be hoped that this bill
will pass and every town should
petition its representatives to
vote forit.

THE COUNTY COURT.
Good Suggestions Made for the
Benefit of That Honor
able Body.

In so much as this body has
deferred very important meas.
ure, the levying Of the taxes for
the year 1897, until April term we
feel inclined to suggest to them
the Importance ola knowledge of
what the county needs, befor they
take action. Would it not be
proper for the Chairman Of this
court and the Financial Commit.
tee to familiarize themselves with
the county's demands, then CAL
culation on FAN itelligent investi.
CATION of the comfy affairs and
recommend certain taxation.
We have been made truly sore
by seeing memoirs of this body
in perfect bewilderment as to the
abrupt actions of the court, hav-
ing no knowledge of the matters
under consideration and would
frankly acknowledge that they
did not understand the question.
Many transactions of this body
are made without one moments
cosidsration, by the members be.
fore coming up in open court, and
many errors and Indebtedness is
the result. We think it the duty
of the Chairman of the court and
the Financial Committee to invcs.
tigate every appropriation that is
to be made or account that is to
be allowed and recommend them
as they see best for the county.
By this method matters that
have hitherto had no investiga.
ton or intelligent considerations
will be looked into. This is a We.
~ comon action in deliberative DO
dies where a knowledge of matter
is sought before action is taken.
We fail to see the use of. a HI.
nancial Committee, if it is not to
make these investigations and re-
commend accordingly.
