weorine the White Rihnon

A writer in the Union Signal, the or
gan Of the w. c. T. u, says: Do our
members wear the white ribbon? Why
not? 1t speaks volumesl I am very
busy business woman, but 1 stick to
my bow of white ribbon, and wherever
I go my little badge of loyalty brings
me many a pleasure. In my work
among business men, often is my rib
bon mentioned. One gentleman said:
Il see you wear the white ribbon; l
should like you to go home with me to
dinner, my wife would be pleased to
meet you" Another, pastor of a
church that 1 attend, said: 81 am
pleased to meet any one associated
with my wife in her work"
Do you not love to meet those wear
ing the badge of your order? Why
should not we be as proud as our order
as the secret societies, the Free Masons
and Odd Fellows, and numerous others.
Is not our society as worthy our loyal
ty? Then let us stick to our badge.
Be sure we have enough white ribbon
to put a knot on every dress and out
side wrap, and let it speak a silent Ian
guage for our grand cause of total abb

Do not try to do some great thing
Or you may waste all your life waiting
for the opportunity which may never
come. But since little things are al
ways claiming your attention, do them
as they come, from great motive, for
the glory OF God, to win His smile of
approval, and to do good to men. Il
is harder to plod on In obscurity acting
thus than to stand in the high places
of the field, within the view Of all, and
do deeds of valor at which rival armies
stand still to gaze But no such act
goes without the swift recognition and
she ultimate recompense of Christ. To
fulfill the duties of your station to
use to the uttermost the gifts Of your
ministry; to bear the chafing annoy
ances and trivial irritations as mar
tyrs bore the pillOry and stake; to find
the one noble trait in people who try
to modest you; to put the kindest con-
struction on unkind acts and words;
to love with love of God even the I'M
thankful and evil; to be content to be
a fountain in the midst Of a wild valley
Of stones, nourishing a few lichens and
wild flowers, or now and again
thirsty sheep, and to do this always,
and not for the praise of man, but for
the sake of God-this makes a great
life-F B Never

The practice Of that which is eth
ically best-what we call goodness or
virtue-involves a course of conduct
which, in all respects, is opposed to
that which leads to success in the Co.'S
mic struggle for existence In place OF
ruthless self-assertion it demands self
restraint; in place of thrusting aside
or treading down all competitors, it re-
quires that the individual shall not
merely respect, but shall help his fell

much to the survival OF the flttest as to
the fitting of as many as possible to
survive. 1t repudiates the gladiatorial
theory of existence. 1t demands that
each man who enters into the enjoy
ment of the advantages Of a policy
shall be mindful of his debt to those
who have laboriously constructed it;
and shall take heed that no act of his
weakens the fabric in which he has

which is proving very adVanta-
geous to the settlers of North
Alberta, Canada, and is truly a boon to
the farmers, is the establishment of
creameries by the Government at regu
lar distances apart. The Government
furnishes the entire plant, puts it in
and operates it without direct cost to
the farmer. From the sale of the but
ter the Government retains cents per
pound, the balance going to the farmer.
This is continued for three years, when
the government turns over the plant
and business to the farmers, Civ
ing them a clear title of it.
Thus these creameries are put in
at a minimum cost to the farmer
and paid for in a way that he least
feels it. When we were there butter
was selling at 21 and % cents per
pound. Cheese factories were being es-
tablished, too, along the railroad and .
much of the freight loaded on the cars
on our return trip consisted Of butter
and cheese, as it was in the best sea-
son for milk. The produce found a
ready market in the mining and lum-
bering towns and districts beyond the
Rockies, through the British Columbia
country, where it was, we were told,
difficult to supply the demand"
The Klondike is another field now
open to the Western Canadian farmer
for all produce of the farm, and the
officials in the Department of the In
terror Ottawa, Canada, are kept busy
sending out literature describing this
great agricultural country. The agents
Of the Government throughout the

Tho Consequences of TnIquity.

We must not make God responsible
for the continuance Of iniquity. We
must define sin as a resistance to the
realization Of the righteous purpose OF
God in the soul. God is against the
race only when it is against itself; and
in that case His wrath is His mercy.
God is on the side of every man who
sets his heart on righteousness. The
deepest in human nature, in human So
ciety, in human history in the course
of the world, in the on-going universe,
makes for the seeker after righteous
ness. The stars in their courses fight
for the man who contends for a pure
heart; and to every soul face to fac
with the tremendousness of the moral
process the sublime comfort comes
THE Eternal God is thy refuge, and
underneath are the everlasting arms. ="

Fight the Trusts,

Now that the Republicans have gain
ed entire control of the lawmaking
machinery Of the Government, the
reign of trusts will continue with added
splendor. For the next two years there
will he a grand rush on the part of
what Mckinley calls "our best busi-
ness interests to get into combines
which will kill competition and lower
the wages of the wOrH1ngman. When
the news of Republican success was
received in New York ali the trust
stocks went up with a bound, and this
fact demonstrates what the money
power thinks is going to be the result
Of unrestrained Republican power.
To the transportation trust, the
Standard Oil trust, the sugar trust and
the other trusts controlling two thou
sand million dollars of capital will be
added next winter the money trust

the administration newspapers are de-
manding the passage. in extra session.
IF the reform currency bill. When
be one great central bank and 10000
branches. Competition in the money
market will be slain. Business will be
entirely ut the mercy of the enormous
and merciless money power.
What can the people DO under such
circumstances? They can fight the
slavery of the trusts as the opponents
of human slavery fought that institu-
ton. They can INSIST that such laws "a
now exist against the trusts shall be
enforced. and if these laws are not
enforced they can call attention to the
venality of those in power and de-
nounce the raScals who thrive by rob
berry. There is tremendous struggle
impending. Democrats should grid
themselves for the conflict. The fight
will be bitter. the odds are tremendous,
but in the long run the right must and
will prevail

TURNCOAT REPUBLICANS.

There has been great change OF
heart on the part of the Republican
party since 1883. Now the Republican, rs
want nothing but gold as the money Gi
ultimate redemption. and monetary re
form" with them means n contraction
Of the currency.
What the Republicans demand at
present is the establishment of the
great king trust of the world. The
trust which shall corner" money. The
trust which shall have one great CEN
tral bank with 10000 branches. That
is the only kind of reform which the
Republican patriots desire.
But ten years ago the position of the
Republican party was quite different.
Then 1t aimed to he in favor of bimet-
allism and in 1883 the national plat
form on which Harrison was elected
President had the following plank:
The Republican party is in favor of the
use of both gold and silver as money and
condemns the policy of the Democratic
administration in its efforts 10 demone-
ire silver.
This declaration was unequivocal and
the satire in it upon present conditions
is Stinging and severe.
But in 1892, Harrison being once
more 4 candidate for President, the Re
publican party adopted the following
plank on the money question:
The American people from tradition and
interest favor bimctallism and the Repub-
lican party demands the use of both gold
and silver as standard money, with such
-estrictiOns and under such provisions, to
DC determined by legislation, as will Sc
cure the maintenance of the parity of the
two metals. so that the purchasing and
lebt-paying power of n dollar, whether OF
silver, gold or paper, shall be at all times
equal.
The same convention indorsed the
Sherman law 'as 4 long. but prudent,
step toward the free coinage of silver"
Truly times change and men change
with them.
