doing certain things Why? If the man vic
lates the law, he can be arrested and punished
in the ordinary way. But there is that incon
venient jury trial system, with its humanity
and common sense. So the writ of Injunction
is issued. The enploye is solelnnly told that
he must not do thus and .hus. Remember the
law has already said the same thing to him.
The Judge simply repeats the law in form of
his own. So that if the employe dares to ven-
ture hairs breadth beyond the language of
the order, the helpless culprit is hauled into
court, and without jury, or the right of appeal,
is condemned to punishment.
Is this system right? Is it wise? Is it not
an utter subv~ ~rsion of the regular forms of
government? Is it not an abuse that should
be fearlessly and reasonably remedied? For
my part, cannot see now court can be more
sacred than the people who created the court.
l can not see why oppression by trust or
st-rdden Judge should be less henious and
less all object of protest and reform than op-
preston by labor union. And | do not be-
leve that the country is convinced that trial by
Jury is falure.-New York Journal.

The nsidious tunnelling of the Worm of
Mammon, the slow crumbling of our ideals of
justice and fraternity-these are the things to
fear; not the opinions of our brother concerning
abstruse and controverted problems. Opinions
are ever forming and fading like clouds in the
armament, but the fundamental principle of
conduct remains unchanged race after race, cy-
Gle after cycle. And that fundamental princi-
pie is the one on which Jesus bases His divine
religion--the principle of humanity, the sense
of the unity and interdependence of all lives,
the feeling of responsibility to God for our
treatment of the neighbor. Here is a truth,
simple, imperious, sublime. Opinions change
like the clouds, but this truth endures like the
sky.
We need not fear to push all ecclesiastical
lumber aside and take our stand with our Lord
and Leader on the Ihunanitary principle. This
is principle as old and as permanent as the
universe. Here all men can stand and be at
rest in their leason-stand dignifed yet humble,
knowing that the immovable granite is under
their feet and the unwasting consultations are
over their heads.-Edwin Markham in the New
York Journal.

Here's a Greed for All Christians.

"Burn theological millinery; put old doctrines
into nuseum?" Thus cried Rev. DIR. Beh-
rends in his address to the recent Ecumenical
conference. heartily approve of the bonfire
and the shelving. 1t was pleasant to hear the
applause which greeted the DOCTORS vigorous
language.
Once l stood in the gloom of theological
library, and what saw on the shelves touched
my spirit with melancholy surprise.
Books numberless, all written, forsooth, to
tell the way to the blessed life. Christ tells it
in si1gle line!
do not remember that Jesus exacted of His
twelve disciples any statement of opinion. They
were simply to follow Him, engage in works of
charity and good will, help in the new teach
ing, healing and feeding ministry. He forced
no creed upon the Twelve. They were per-
mitted to serve and grow in silence, the truth
unfolding within them like flower.
Everywhere is heard general demand in the
clutches for simpler creed. How would the
sermon OH the mount do for a confession of
faith?
take the Golden Rule. The Master declared
this lult to be 'the Law and the Prophets"
Or, if you prefer, let US take the direction
given the rich young man who went running
to Jesus, and who, kneelng, asked Him, "What
shall do that l may inherit eternal life?"
Here certainly Jesus announces the essential re-
qusite. His answer is as direct, simple and
reasonable as the light. He tells him to keep
the Commandments. Finally He tells him to
consecrate his life and fortune to the common
good. On another occasion, Jesus announces
His own Commandment, saying: "This is My
Commandment, that ye love one another, as
have loved vou."
And now take that dramatic passage where
Christ describes the Last Judgment. Men have
lived their lives and are now standing before
the Great Judge at the Final Assize. What in
that dread hour decides the fate of men? Not
their belief nor disbelief in dogmatic theology.
Not even their opinions about God. No; the
one thing that tells for destiny is their treat
ment of their fellows. Those who are accepted
are received with the words, 81 was hungry,
and ye gave Me drink; naked and ye clothed
Me; sick and ye came unto Me. For
inasmuch as ye did it unto the least of these
NV brethren ye did it unto Me.''
