THE EVOLUTION OF FAITH,

Much of this talk about 'loss of faith
decline of church membership" and
lethargy in the churches has very lit
tie real foundation to it, if it is meant
thereby that belief in God and in Christ
is becoming weaker among mankind.
There is a change, but it is not loss of
faith. Faith today, in God and in a fu-
ture life, is probably deeper and stronger
and more pervading than at any time in
the past. The change is due to mental
growth and culture, which have broadened
the field of mental vision and enlarged
the critical and discriminating faculties.
Those things which were real and logi-
cal in the Christian belief-the great
basic truths-are more generally accepted.
The existence of a universe of unknown
vastness has impressed itself upon every
thinking man and carried with 1t the
logical conclusion that there is a Great
Architect who is the First Cause and
the Life of all things. This is a far
broader and grander conception than the
feeble materialism of the Being seated
on a white throne in a golden city, with
pearly gates, surrounded by singing
choirs of angels.
Turning from contemplation of the idea
of an unknown creator of a boundless
| universe to a consideration of the ma
terialism Of the idea of the orthodox
| paradise is not calculated to sustain or
thodox faith as it is presented. 1t is
| not faith that suffers, however, by such
| contrast. 1t is the orthodoxy It is
sectarianism that is suffering, and not
the spirit Of true religion. All that is
immaterial, all that is mystical, all that
has been added and wells the faith is
being neglected; the ritual, the dogma,
the differentiation of creed based on
the same truths, these are the things
that are being more and more disregard
ed. 1t is not a loss of faith, but a
change. It is the perception of the es-
sentials and the abandonment Of the nom

sus of 1890, tvzsnty-five years from their
| emancipation IN the South. we are con-
! fronted with the fact that the race,
| though constituting less than Il per cent
/ of the population of this county, tur-
nished 30 per cent of all the crime OF the
country. including 81 per cent OF all
| icideS, and 40 per cent of all assaults.
! This in the face Of the fact that over
| s100,0G0, 900 had been spent on their educa-
! ton in twenty-five years, and that Tilt
eracy among them had decreased by AZ

He points out that all the inferior races
which have disappeared after being
brought in contact with the whites have
developed as the apparent operating
causes toward their decadepce a propen-
sity toward crime such SIS is now being
shown by the negro. The native Hawaii
ans, when they came in touch with Capt.
Cook and his voyagers, were brave, yet
gentle, and physically and morally al
most perfect race. The contact was fol-
lowed by the development of crime and
immortality in such ratio as led to the ex-
tinction practically of the race. The same
lesson Prof Straton reads from the fate
VI TIC OOoL VI Tic <AQ5N Idl1dA 1dISo' e1o
well as from that of the native American
Indian races. Sexual immortality has been
the invariable tendency, and. according
to the Macon professor, its development
among the negroes since they secured
their freedom has been as great as in
the case of any of the races whose dis
appearance has been recorded as the re-
suit of being brought in touch with the
whites. HIS figures are remarkable, and
seem to carry with them the strongest
presumption as to the correctness of his
conclusions Certain he makes it to ap-
pear that the negro has deteriorated most
markedly in moral characteristics since
he was removed from the restraints of
slavery.
The remedy which may be effective in
saving the American negro from extinc-
ton, according to Prof Straton, is his
deportation. He acknowledges that whole
sale deportation, such as has been sug-
gested, is out of the question. He thinks
however, that by establishing conditions
elsewhere which would invite the negro
to go there, and then assisting him to CO.
the problem might be solved. AS many
foreigners come here year after year be-
cause of the favorable conditions which
invite them. so Prof straton believes that
the negroes are ready to go elsewhere if
conditions invite them. He believes it
the duty Of the government to aid in send
ing them, and, although he says there
will be nothing like a general migration,
a sufficient number would go, with gov
eminent aid, to lessen the social strain
in this country and insure a racial future
for the negro elsewhere.

A NEW VIEW OF THE NEGRO.

a NEW VIEW OF THE NEGRO.
Prof Booker T. Washington is the one
representative Of the colored people in
America for whose opinions and purposes
in relation to the race there is general
respect entertained all over the country.
His plan for the uplifting of the race and
for the realization of the hopes and ex-
pectations of those who have thought
that civil liberty would put the negro on
the high road to material, moral, intel
lectual ard spiritual advancement is to
educate him. His preference is for in
dustrial education, through which he can
make the negro self-supporting and self
respecting at the same time and, by his
resulting pursuit of the skilled callings,
enable him to take a social position which
might otherwise be denied him.
As against this view the opinions of
Prof J. r. Straton, of Mercer university.
Macon, Ca, present a rather striking
cont. asst. In recent work on the infiu-
ence Of education on the negro, Prof.
Straton takes a somewhat radical posi-
ton. He believes that. by being brought
into social relations with the whites, the
negroes of America are destined to early
extinction. He says that since their free
dom the negroes have declined morally
and physically, and have manifested most
of the Indications toward moral obliquity
given by the disappearing races as their
extinction was in progress. In this con-
nection Prof. Straton says:
After the war. the education of the
negro began. and advanced rapidly: but
side by side with it has gone his increase
in crime ana immortality III even greater
ratio. Measured by the proportion of re
gro criminals TO the entire negro popuIa-
ton, the race grew more criminal be-
tween 1870 and 1850 by as much as Is per
cent; this despite the fact that illiteracy
decreased by over 10 per cent. During
the decade from 1880 TO 1890 the negroes
grew more criminal by 80 1-S per cent;
yet illiteracy decreased during that dec
ace by over is per cent So by the cen

The answer is that there is nc difference
but al the same time the sanitary officers
are net prepared to condemn high game
for the simple reason that the purchaser
is not deceived, and that the majority Of
English people have acquired the filthy

wild animals in a decomposed state. This
is probably an acquired habit, and one
that is really injurious to the health.
