Perfect Hapr.inoss.

Perfect happiness is not to be won in

ing our daily lives that we are in perfect
harmony with those with whom God has
called us to live. To be heroic and noble
in the eyes OF the world will not bring us
happiness if our daily associates. know us
to be mean and selfish in the little actions

THIS Is RELIGION.

What is religion? / will tell thee
what
l think it is-not blindly to disown
Thy reason. or couch and lay thee flat
Before a something terrible unknown.
Not bound with bristling fence of m;in-
made creeds
To thunder banns from thy presump-
tuous throne,
Nor with the mumbled charms Of
counted heads
To bring God down and make His will
thine own,
But in His face with reverent love to
look
Here, where it shines in sky and land
and sea.
And where a prophet speaks in holy
book.
To hear His word and take the truth
to thee,
And hold it fast and tread earthly's
lonely sod
With soul sincere as one who walks
with God"

Bryan on Imperialism.

"ImperiaIism might expand the
nations territory, but it would cor
tract the nations purpose. 1t Is
not step toward toward q broader
destiny; it is step backward tow
ard the narrow views of kings and
emperors. DR.. Taylor has aptly en-
pressed it in his Greed of the Flag
when he asks:
Shall we turn to the old world
again with the penitent prodigal's
cry?'
81 answer never. This republic
is not a prodigai son, it has not
spent its substance in riotous living.
1t is not ready to retrace its steps,
and, with shamed face an trembling
voice, solicit an humble place among
the servants of royalty. 1t has not
sinned against heaven, and God
grant that the crowned heads of
Europe may never have occasion to
kill the fatted calf to commemorate
its return from reliance upon the
will of the people to dependence
upon the authority which flows from
regal birth of superior force"-Bryan
Any unnecessary increase in the
regular army is open to several oh.
Jections, among which may be men
toned the following:
First-It increases taxes and thus
does injustice to those who contrib
ute to the support OF the Govern
ment.
Second-It leads to place force
above reason in the structure of
our government.
Ehird-It lessons the nations
dependence upon its citizen soldiery
the sheet-an .hor of republics
defense.
The army is the impersonation of
force. 1t does not deliberate, it
acts; it does not decide, it execute s.;
a ,docs not reason, it shoots.
Militarism is the very antithesis
Oh democracy; they do not grow in
'he same soil; they do not draw sheir
hou rishment from the same source.

A View of Edmunds.

George F. Edmunds had high repu-
tation in the country as an able lawyer
and faithful and independent senator.
He had unquestionably rendered great
public service in the senate. If elected,
l believe he would have administered
the presidency on the principles which a
large majority Of the people of Massa-
chussets held He was an excellent de-
batter He was very fond of criticising
and objecting to what was proposed by
other men. He seemed never so happy
as when in opposition to the majority
of his associates But he possessed what
persons of that temper commonly lack
great capacity for constructive states
manship. Any measure of which he
was the author would be likely to &C.
complish it's purpose and to stand fire.
David Davis. who was president pre-
tempore of the senate, used to say he
could always compel Edmunds to vote
in the negative on a question by put
ting the question in the old New Eng.
land fashion. Contrary minded will
say no., for Edmunds was always con.
trary minded. I once told him, borrow.
ing saying of an Englishman, that il
George Edmunds were the only man in
the world George would quarrel with

franchise granted by the former Ha-

company. OF which James A. Scrymser

from Honolulu to San Francisco. The

endeavoring to secure a subsidy from
the japanese government to carry the
cable from the Hawaiian Islands to ia

for the performance OF the work by
private companies. It is not the in,en-
tion OF the United States government
to lay and operate the cable itself.
