ABUSE OF FRANKING PRIVILEGES.
n P1unks forwards his residence BY mail to Washir
with the power OF spiritual fellowship
with the Infinite Mind, which is above

with the Infinite Mind, which Is ABOVE
1t all.
THE material universe corresponds tt
what we call the automatic or involun.
tary processes of the organism. The SUI
prone mind might cOnceivably Interrupt
them. as man by an act of will can af-
feet the circulation of his blood, but as
matter Of fact they appear to be entire
ly uniform. But in the realm Of spiritu-
al relationships between the soul OF man
and the spirit of God there is room fol-
the freest and most spontaneous person
al activity. 1t is in this sphere that the
spirit Of God moves directly upon our
hearts, influences our thoughts, res
spends to our prayers and gives to our
lives such divine direction as we are
able and willing to receive
The Illustration Of the microbe in our
organism is especially apt but the SEN
tence, that the whole idea Of prayer,
instead Of indicating faith, indicates
sublime conceit.' ETC., is the strong
thought of the whole address. 1t has
heen often said that a nations idea OF
God determines it's actions. Bob In
gersoll's paraphrase, IAN honest God is
the noblest work of man." is only anoth-
er form of saying the same thing. No
one can dispute but what our Pilgrim
forefathers carried on their religious
work feeling they had the full approval
Of the Almighty. To him. Cromwell's
God directed much of his murderous
work. Few doubt that the terrible cru
elites of the Roman Catholic church in
past centuries were the inspiration a set
of men felt they received from a just
and righteous God. No one will dispute,
/. e., religious people, that the history
recorded in the Old Testament was not
only recital of the acts of nations but
clearly portrays the picture Of God :
people carrying out His wishes and de-
crees.
And so, If we of the twentieth century,
can get rid of our unworthy conception
OF God" the world will be the gamer.
The familiarity of the modern evangel-
ist disgusts many equally with the pray
err of the ignorant Salvationist on the
street corner. Both are terribly demon
alizing-religiously Apply such familiar
personal supplications to our whole re-.
ligious system and in fifty years the
world will return to idolatry.

OUTSIDE POINT OF yIEW.i
Written for the Times Republican

Written for the Times Republican.
The tendency these days toward q
practical, which implies sensible, re-
.lgion is marked. Some good people
fear such change in modern religious
thought means disintegration of our
present religious force. Utterances from
the pulpit, quoted in the following para
graph. are to them almost blasphemous.
There's nothing new in what this rever-
end gentleman said. In fact the notice.
able thing is the source. It's from an
orthodox standpoint. The writer and
others have said the same things many
times. and but little weight went with
the words. Now Congregatlonalists have
listened to such (assumed) heterodox
views from one OF their own ministers.
The writer takes pleasure in placing be-
fore many good church members, with
quoted authority, this logical II not re-
iigious (?) view of one minister ''in good
and regular standing"
The report is taken from a Chicago
daily, dated some weeks ego, and has
not been pronounced incorrect so far as
the writer has noticed.
s'sa
Rev Willard B. Thorp, at the South
Chicago Congregational church, recently
took as his subject Does God Answer
Prayer" He said:
That whole form Of religious teach-
ing which represents God as ready to
do anything we ask for If only we ask
In the proper way and with sufficient
faith. instead of being commended. is to
be rebuked. The idea that God Is wait
ing to do any good thing until you or I
request 1t is on the face Of it absurd.
IT 1t ought to be done He is doing 1t all
ready. And il it ought not to be done,
He will not do 1t even tina the whole
human race should make request for it.
That whole idea OF prayer, instead Of
indicating faith. indicates sublime self
conceit and a very unworthy conception
OF God on the part Of the man who
holds 1t.
If microbe in my blood could phi
Josephine, it might easily leap to the
conclusion that there was no room for
personal action in the physical mechan-
Ism OF the body. And yet that microbe
would be mistaken. Above all this
mechanism of the body is the clear ligh.
and freedom Of the mind, dominating
and directing 1t all. We are like MI
crobes in the great organism Of the uni
verse, but we are microbes endowed

The Commercial agencies have fin

that the average wages paid in this
country are greatly in excess Of that
paid in any other country. This would

GOV. cUMMINs' RIGHTS.
mason City Globe Gazette. ]


The Daily Capital is having the
tantrums because some hot air JAM
mer sent out the repart that when
Governor Cummins was In Minnesota
he rode in Jim Hills private car. The
Capital thinks this story was printed
to injure Mr.. Cummins. AS Mr.. Cum
minis has never posed as populist
there is nothing inconsistent In his
riding in half dozen private cars II he
chooses. Mr.. Cummins also hobnobbed
with millionaires down in New York
at recent banquet but Iowa repub-
licans are not going to get out their
hammer because they have a governor
elect who is SO fertile in charm of
mind and heart to entertain capitalists
and railroad kings. The Capital which
is generally sensible on these questions
should in the language of recent cool
song transport itself to the rear by
much distance and acquire sitting
posture"

Senior Hoar suggests the use Of a
Philippine island as dumping ground
for anarchists.
He would, or should. first remove the
aborigines to another isle. A heather
should not be made to associate with
cattle like anarchists.
After the mutiny in India, Great
Britain made penal colony OF the
Andaman islands, and the native Min
copies can't stand it, and are dying
out. They are a people very low u
the scale, but the deported scallawags
are sending them over the road. 4.

AT the recent meeting Of the board OF
directors of the state department of az
riculture j. r. Sage was recommended
for reappointment as director OF the
weather and crop service by unani-
nous vote. The director is appointed
by the governor who is required by
law to appoint the person recommended
by the board OF agriculture. The rec
ommendation therefore practically
amounts to an appointment. Mr.. Sage
has amply demonstrated his fitness for
the place. He has shown himself to be
a very serviceable and competent OFF,
cial and has fairly earned continuance
in his present Official capacity.
