An Urgent Christian Duty.

TN A LETTER from the Episcopal
bishop of Texas, read to the con-
Il grega ton of st. I.ukcs OH Sum
day by the rector. DR.. Rogers
Israel the statement was made that
every Christian church in Galveston.
and more than half of the churches in
the area of the recent storm had been
either wholly destroyed or so badly
damaged as to need rebuilding. Not
only that, but practically the whole
local financial support Of these
churches, and of the various mission
airy and charitable activities connected
with them, is gone.
The state of Texas. from its surplus
in treasury probably will vote money to
rebuild the public buildings and larger
industries of Galveston. outside con-
tributions are helping to keep the
stricken people supplied as to their
most urgent physical needs. But unless
the Christian churches of the land put
in money to revive the suspended
church and benevolent work, it may be
years before the resident population of
Galveston and its vicinity will be in
condition to restore it unaided. The
prospect of a complete paralysis of re-
liGiouS activities in Il center of desti-
tute and spiritually needful population
in one of the states of this great Chris
,ian nation is difficult 10 contemplate.
but it is impending and can be averted
only by prompt and liberal Christian
giving.
In behalf of the needs of the lipisco-
pal diocese of Texas DR.. Israel has be-
sought contributions from the members
of st. Luke's parish, but it seems to us
that this is a situation calling for more
general attention.
OF course Presidential Mckinley will
not interfere in the Pennsylvania sen
atorial fight. There is no necessity for
it and it is not his style.
