Brown at Rochester, n. Y, not many
weeks ago: He took for his text that
"Knowest thou not that l have power to
release thee or to put thee to death?'
and with that verse as his text the min
lister proceeded to contrast the doctrine
of force with the gospel of love. There
was PLATE, the representative of Caesar
and behind Caesar the Roman Govern
ment and behind the Roman Government
the Roman legions, and before Plate
was Christ, defenseless, preaching the
gospel of love And the minister pointed
Caesar had waned and the power of
Christ had increased. He pointed out
how the Roman Government and It's Ro-
man legions had vanished away, and the
earth knew them no more, while year by
year the people in increasing numbers
took upon their lips the name of the meek
and lowly Nazarene who stood defense
less in the presence of power And then
the minister pointed out that in this
nation force and love stand face to face
The United. States is Pilates council
chamber, and on the one side is brute
force and on the other side is love. What
shall be the verdict of this nation? Shall
we go forth with sword in hand to
slay, to murder and to plunder, or shall
we go forth preaching the gospel of love
and hold up the image of a republic and
invite all men to rise and demand self
government? cloud cheeringD
A Sermon in Verse.
How can a Christian, how can a min
lister, see in a war of conquest Waged by
republc-hoW can a Christian or a min
lister see in such a war the hand of God
directing and pointing out destiny to
people? If you believe that this nation
great as it is is great enough to do wrong
| want you to listen to a few verses writ
ten by an unknown poet-a poet whose
lived a few years ago in Lincoln. He now
lives in Denver, and l ran across his
verses, that contain more of truth and
more more of Gospel and more of Christ's re
lfgiOn than you will find in any sermon
ever delivered In defense of an imperial
policy. Let me read the words
We are mad, grown mad, in the race for gold;
We are drunk with the wine of gain.
The truths fathers proclaimed of old
We spurn with high disdain.
But while the conquerer's we run,
Our rulers should not forget
That the God who reigned over Babylon
Is the God who is reigning yet.
Would we tread in the paths of tyranny,
Nor reckon the tyrant cost?
Who taketh another's liberty,
His freedom is also lost
Would we win a strong man won.
Make ready to pay the debt,
For the God who reigned over Babylon
Is the God who is reigning yet.
The ruins of dynasties passed away
In eloquent silence lie.
And the despot's fate is the same to-day
That it was in the days gone by.
Against all wrong and injustice done
rigid account is set,
For the God who reigned over Babylon
Is the God who is reigning yet.
The laws of life are eternal laws,
The judgments of truth are true;
My great blind masters, l bid you pause
And look on the work you do
You bind with shackles your fellow man,
Your hands with his blood wet
And the God who regned over Babylon
Is the God who is reigning yet.

Fears

What is wanted of soap
for the skin is to wash it
clean and not hurt it.
Pure soap does that, This
is why we want pure soap;
and when we say pure,
we mean without alkali.
Pears is pure; no free
alkali. There are a thou
sand virtues Of soap; this
one is enough. You can
trust a soap that has no
biting alkali in it.
All sorts of stores sell it, especially
druggists; all sorts of people use it.

Imperialism from a money standpoint: L

ipinos- | have never had any doubt of 1t.
Why? am just American enough to
| think that we can whip any nation in the
world that we ought to whip. l know
that we can whip the Filipinos because
ours and she had almost finished the job
and she had only been at it 500 years. And
then she got twenty millions of dollars for
the option on the fight when she went out
| prolonged cheering)
Whip! Why, of course we can whip. We
can't tell how long it will take or how
have to repeat the whipping, but we can
do it. But shall great nation act upon
what II can do or upon what it ought to
do? (CheerS.)
l would not live by man as neigh
Dor who acted on the principle that he
would do everything that he could do,
and / know of no way of measuring the
responsibility of nation except by the
rules which We use in measuring the re-
sponsiblities of man. 1t is the bully
and the braggart. the man who relies on
| brute force, who goes round and tells
what he can do. 1t is the civilized man
the Christian, who asks what he ought
to do, and does it regardless of conse-
quences. But if you are going to argue
it on the basis of dollars and cents, put
down on one side what it will cost to
subdue and hold in subsection 100000 Of
people 1909 miles away from our shores,
scattered over 1200 islands, and living in
the jungles of a tropical cline; and then
on the other side put down what we are
going to get out of the job, and then
when you have done that, find out who
is. going to pay what we spend and
who Is going to get what we get.
(Cheers.) 1 hear some people say
that if we hold the Philippine Islands
they will furnish homes for our surplus
population. Sixty people to the square
mile in the Philippine Islands and twenty
to the square mile in the United States.
Why, when we unite the Philippine Is
lands with the United States the move
ment will be from the Philippine Islands
to the United States-not from the United
States to the Philippine Islands. If every
Filipino were to die tomorrow and leave
the islands without a hostile man, we
could not force a thousand people to go
from the United States to live and work
in the islands over there. (Cheers) The
white race will not work in the tropics,
and if our people went there to live and
TO work they would be different people
in three generations from those whom
they left at home.
No Homes There.
I repeat that that country will never
furnish homes to our people If you want
to furnish homes to your people spread
out over ten years the money spent on
the army In one year in the Philippine Is
lands; spread that money out for ten
years in reclaiming the arid lands of the
mountain States and you will furnish
homes for more people than will go to the
Philippine Islands in a thousand years
and California will profit by the policy

Two Sources of Government.

But YOU ask me what can be done.
Strange question for a person to ask in
republic. There are but two sources of gov
ernment-force and consent Monarchies
rest upon force, republics upon consent.
The Declaration of Indepe ndence says that
governments derive their just powers from
the consent of the governed. Is it true or
is II false? If that doctrine is true then
this nation cannot acquire title to people
by conquest If that doctrine is true. then
this nation cannot acquire title by pur
arch whose rebellious subjects we our
selves armed to fight against that mon-
arch. (Cheers)

PIT AND PENDULUM.
A Prisoner Waiting to be

Scythe.
Thousands Whose Situations

Heip.

A man lies fat on his back, bound so that
he cannot move an inch. He is in dun
geon, at first dark as well, but in few min
utes light in the ceiling, far up, shows q
mechanical figure Of Time with his scythe.
The figure dcscends slowly, the scythe
swings, and the prisoner realizes that unless
some unexpected help should come, ne will
beslowly cut to pieces. What followed is
told by Edgar Allen Poe in the fantastic
story called The ri. and the Pendulum"
The man awaiting the approach Of
dreadful death is type of large class of IN
fortunates who, entangled in the strangling
coils Of an octopus, have lost all hope offree-
dom. This monster is Morphine. Perhaps
the victim is yet reveling in that glorious
state Of exhilaration which follows the first
use Of the drug. If 50, like the man In Poe's
story, he has not noticed the light in the cell
ing and is unaware Of his danger. Maybe
the disease has progressed so far that the
sufferer notices weakness of the hearts ac-
ton, that the general health is feeble the
body poorly nourished, the sight double.
This is soon followed by peculiar witch
Ing of the muscles, numbness of the hands
and feet, and the utter collapse of the
nervous system. The victim now becomes
