BREVITIES

The Boston Herald is one very in
fuential paper in New England that
sees the danger in ignorant fanaticism
as to dealing with the negro problem.
1t says:
positively the very worst advice that
the negroes of the United States could
get is that which one of their bishops
is giving them. This bfindest of blind
leaders is daily preaching a policy of
armed resistance, of open wal with the
whites. There could be but one end of
such a conflict, and any negro, layman
or p~relate, who does not appreciate
what that end would be. and how
speedily it would come, is deserving Of
the sincerest pity"

come back into the democratic house It
shall not be for the purpose of throw
ing out those who are in the house, and
that they can not expect the killing Of
a fatted calf if that is their purpose"

The cry is that not only in decadent
New England is the Christian religion
.decaying, as the governor of New
Hampshire declares in a proclamation
lately issued, but the same conditions
exist in other sections of the north.
The Unitarian organ of New England,
The Boston Christian Register, says
that the decay is visible elsewhere than
in New England.
cit is as marked i'm Wisconsin as 1T
is in New Hampshire. 1t is as evident
in the state of New York as it is in the
state of Kensucky. Travellers, Wheth-
er religious or secular, who have occa-
sion to do business in the small towns.
report many churchless communities
where the standard of morality is so
low that some of the ~grossest offences
are condoned, or at least winked at, by
those who are among the most intelli-
gent part of the community. A judge
holding court in Boston has testified
to us with earnest solicitude that with
in sight of the dome of the state house
there are rustic communities where
moral blindness seems to have followed
the decay of the church"
And his is the section that casts it's
jibes and slurs at the south saying that
it is a barbarous land, without civiliza-
ton, and, of course, without Christian
ity. But on the other hand it is the
testimony of some northern religious
editors that the type of piety in the
south is quite equal to that in the
north, while other persons who visit
the north ave that the average stand
ard in southern churches is better and
l1iEher than that of corresponding
= churches in the boastful and rich
north. Education of the mind possesses
no regenerating power. A finely disci-
.plined mind may be in close association
with a very depraved and vicious heart
. and soul.

1t was learned during the day that

question OF the laws Of war rendering

ment in this Country.

Copyright by Associated Press.)
Berlin, May 20.-The rejection of the
Midland Canal bill by the committee is
much commented upon in the press,
From inside information, the correspond
ent of the Associated Press learns that
his does not mean the defeat OF the
bill. In a plenary session Of the diet,
Emperor William intends to use his
personal influence to secure the sup
port Of the entire left and centre, part
of the reichsportei and some Of the con-
servatives, whose votes would give the
bill a clear majority.
The main reason that the govern
ment, and particularly the emperor, so
strongly favors the canal project, is
that in case of war with Franch or
Russia, or both, a network OF canals
from the eastern to the western from
tier of Prussia would afford the best
| system for the conveyance of field hos
pitfalls and supplies for the ordnance
department.
The agricultural depression was heat
! edly discussed in the diet this week
| and much interesting matter was
| brought to light. The lack of rural la
| Dor for the large estates on the eastern
| provinces was thoroughly ventilated.
! Baron Won Wanheim, president of the
| Federation of H~usbandry, said that
| unless a radical change was wrought
/ more thar half the holders. of these es-
] tates would be ruined within five years,
as it was impossible to obtain the ne
cessary number of hands in harvest
time, even at higher wages than for
merly. The influx of Polish-Russian
laborers during the harvest is wholly
insufficient and for national reasons IS
not favored by the government. The
latter announced that 10, 900, 900 marks
would be spent in settling small owners
in the districts most affected.
The press and the government are
much interested in the so-called anti
lingo movement, started by German
Americans in the United States. Fred
erick Hollis, secretary of the United
States delegation at the peace confer
ence at The Hague, while here, thor
oughly Informed the minister of for
eign affairs, Baron Won Buelow, and
the foreign office officials as TO the ex-
tent and purport of the movement. He
carried assurances from washington
that so far as the movement meant the
preservation of good, intimate relations
between the two countries, the admin
istration is thoroughly in accord with
it. The German press freely comments
with satisfaction On the fact that Ger
man-Americans have exerted them
selves towards the re-eStabliShment OF
the former pleasant international re-
lationS.
