THE Standard Oil Company is going
to move its Office from Ohio, because
Monnett wanted it to pay its taxes,
like poor folks do. The Standard is a
great monopoly, but a great company
for all that, but its managers are hogs,
il they do give away millions because
they can't take them to heaven with
them. If they had the manliness of
true men, they would never shift their
taxes onto people who have continual
struggle for life. A true man is al
ways a gentleman and scorns to injure
the poor or helpless.

THE Ministers of Toledo are taking
action to prevent the opening of the
gates of the Ohio Centennial Exposi-
tion at Toledo, on the Sabbath. The
church as body should take action
in this matter, at its several annual as.
semblies, next year, and enter formal
protest against Sabbath desecration, and
against all such demoralizing features
as the Midway. 1t is the duty of the
church to witness for the Sabbath and
for morality, and. to use her influence
against all expositions that lower the
standard of religion and morality.
