PROTEST
Misusing the
Pulpit.
But Every Church Member
Should be a Christian Politician.

TO the Editor of the Democrat:
When the Founder of Christianity
says: MY kingdom is not of this
world,' he would have all his follow
ers to understand that church and
state are separate, institutions; that
ecclesiastical and civil powers are not
to be confounded and that the church
has no more right to enter the do,
main of the state TO regulate and
govern its secular matters than the
state has TO enter the sphere of the
church to regulate its spiritual ar
fairs. The line of distinction is clear
ly and distinctly drawn. The same
principle is also embodied in the
fundamental law of our country.
But the teaching Is not always OBJ
served by all our citizens. Sometimes
the state attempts to govern the af-
fairs of the church, but more frequent
ly the church undertakes to interfere
with the matters of state.
Just now the Ohio Anti Saloon
League Is engaged in movement 10
have been elected favorable to local
option legislation. This movement
throughout Ohio is headed and led
by ministers and politicians. Their
meetings are being held in the
churches. These leaders are good and
well'meanlng men, but 1t is to he
feared that they have more zeal than
wisdom. The course they pursue must
surely iniure their churches and
weaken the very cause for which they
contend.
Ministers and members of Christian
churches should indeed be deeply in.
terested in the affairs of the state.
They should take an active part in the
work of moral reforms and the bring
ing about of a higher citizenship
But in all matters of state they
should not proceed and act in the
name of the church or of any eccles.
iastical body, but solely in the com,
mon name of citizens. No church or
religious body AS SUCH has any
right TO pass resolutions recommend
ing and debating what measures are
to be enacted or what laws are to be
enforced by the state or civil an
thorities. When ministers and mem,
bers of the church desire to have any
wholesome laws passed, a citizens
meeting should be called: and thar
meeting ought never to be held In a
church, built and consecrated to the
worship of God and the hearing of
His word. Then will the churches be
respected and their ministers and
members exert a greater power aud
influence for good with outsiders.

you ought to be thes happiest man
in Akron that you are not charged with
murder or assault with intent to kill
you wife" said Mayor Young to Ed.

passing sentence upon him, Wednes-
day.
"Oh please do not send him to the
workhouse. Let him be put under bond
to be peaceable at home, Oh please,
sir. He has "A frail blossom of a child
and she loves him."
1t was the mother of the child and
the wife of Bailey who spoke. The
heavy veil she wore scarcely concealed
the fact that one of her eyes is still
swollen shut and that her face and neck
are black and blue as "a result of a
vicious assault her husband made on
her Monday night
Mrs. Bailey was the chief witness for
the state. In the trial she testified that
her husband, who is a well known
musician failed to come home Mon
day night and she took their little
child and went to look for him. She
found him coming out of saloon and
took him home When they reached
the house he cursed and swore and
she ordered him to leave. He sprang
upon her from behind, pulled her to
the floor by the hair and for Is minutes

she escaped and ran into the street
with their baby and called an officer.
Or. A. Walter Jones testified as to
Mrs Balley's injuries when the police
brought her to his office.
Officer Edward Benson testified that
when arrested at his home, 1O4 Bowery
ST., Bailey said he had clicked his
wife good" and that his hand was
sore from pounding her.
Bailey denied hat he had assaulted
his wife, but said he merely defended
himself from her; that she had
hatchet and was about to attack him
with it.
He bore no marks of any injury,
however, and his wife's condition was
so against his story, that Mayor Young
said his duty would not allow him to
yield entirely to Mrs. Bailey's plea for
leniency. He scored wife beaters In
general and sentenced Bailey to 30
days in the workhouse and to pay
fine of $25 and costs.
Mrs. Bailey weeping bitterly, asked
again that her husband be let off with
a fine, saying she would be only too
glad to pay it. But in another moment

showed no remorse away.
