1.-THE MISSION OF AMERICA"
Sermon of Rev. c. A. Hill to Stars and Stripes
Council No. 70, Jr. 0. U. A. NJ.

Rev. G.. A. Hill preached on Sun
day morning to the Stars and Stripes
Council, No. 26, Junior o. u. A. Ma
discourse that was in every way fit
ting to the day and occasion. The
morning was a record breaker for heat,
nearly up to 100 degrees, which had
the tendency to lessen the number of
the members of the order in attend
ance, as it did also the general con-
gregatiOn.
The subject which the text, (taken
from the Prophet Isaiah $50, set
forth was, "The Mission of America. F"
The position of Palestine and the pur-
poses of the Lord in reference to his
chosen people was paralleled to that of
our land, and the place it and its peo-
pie are to fill in working out the
Divine plans in extending His king
dom. Ours is a great and mighty ma
tiOn of wonderful resources, planted
for purpose, and if conducted in ac-
cOrdance with the Divine will in the
maintenance of civil and religious lib
erty, must be great power for good
IN ameliOrating the condition of other
peoples.
The extent of our territorial great
ness was shown by comparison. For
instance, the State of North and South
Dakota are 26 times as large as ancient
Palestine. Texas is five times larger
than England, while all Europe, ex-
elusive of Russia, could be put down
three times i'll the land between the
river Hudson and the Pacific Ocean.
When we fought for and gained our
civil liberty we numbered only 5000,
600, now we are more than 10000, 900
people. While we have thus been
growing so rapidly and extending our
beneticent influences abroad, we are
not without our dangers, incurred be-
cause of this freedom offered others.
They were briefly named. The first
was the undue extension of the ballot.
In fifteen States which we named, all
an emigrant has to do to become a
voter is to declare at some time his in
tentlOn to become a citizen, and his
vote is recorded, before he has any
time to become acquainted with our
institutions, as readily as if he were
| born here. 81 had to wait, i" said the
speaker, ''twenty-one years before l
could vote, and he believed there was
possible danger in putting the ballot
in the hands of anarchists and others,
who had no conception of the true
meaning of the word liberty"
The second danger he named was
the presence of a large and increasing
army of aliens who are not in sympa-
thy with our Christian institutions.
The third danger named was the
liquor or license question. 1t was a
war on the happiness of the home and
the morals of the people. $4,000 mer
die annually of not one of whom can il
be put on their tombstone, "blessed
are the dead who die in the Lord"
A fourth danger named was the
spirit of irreligiOn manifesting itself
not only in indifference to the claims
of Jesus, but in open opposition to his
religion.
Smyrna times., 1898-07-06

will extend throughout the State and
include the minor organizations of the
two parties. The gentlemen who have
had the direction of the reunion IN
charge are the responsible members of
both parties and whatever conclusion
they may reach will be found accept
able to the party at large.
In order to be perfect and complete
the project of reunion must come from
the State Committees, as it is with
them that the responsibility for the
future rests.
The old Democratic leaders,, it is said,
have been set aside and, as the result
of combination of unfortunate Cir
cumstances, several men who have
heretofore posed as leaders of the Del
aware Democracy are now disqualified
The Hon. L. Irving Handy is looked
upon as the only available leader by
virtue of his being member of Con
gress, but Mr.. Handy besides being
allied to Kenney in the formation OF
"Kenney and Handy Clubs" repre-
sents the Bryan idea, and the Demo
cratic party is not solid i'll its adher
ence to Popocratic principles. 1t will
be matter of interest to watch how
parties shape themselves.
Smyrna times., 1898-07-06

A GENTLEMAN who came out of one of
our banks on Friday morning, re-
marked that he had just made a con-
tributiOn to the war of fifty cents. A
further inquiry revealed the fact that
he had just bought fifty cents worth
of stamps to put on checks, and this
was his contribution to the Govern
ment. He found that in transacting
business through the bank he would
of necessity be compelled to use
stamps-and like every other man thus
doing business, makes a forced contri-
button to the prosecution of the war.
It would be we'll for every one
to familiarize himself with the provis-
ions of the act. Every check drawn
must have stamp placed upon it and
then cancelled. Every telegraph mes
sage sent must also be decorated with
a stamp and cancelled. The drawer
of a check has to furnish the stamp
and the sender of a telegraph message
must do the same thing. The tele-
graph companies, however, have an
nOunced that the sender of a message
must afix the stamp. There will be
no hardship in adding one cent to
eacn message, but it will be an awful
nuisance for those who use the wire
frequently to be bothered with the
stamp trick.
