 The country needs a deliyerer and not just yet legislation.
 It is the right; it is the duty of every lover of the republic to watch the President carefully and from an un- prejudiced view point.
 His record thus far is an honest one. Truth, honesty, moral courage, physical strength and mental Vigor seem to be his priceless possessions. These are re- quired in the leader so greatly needed.
 If Roosevelts performance consist | with his profession, he is doubtless the man needed, provided during the months 90 come he conVinces Ameri- cans that he possesses judgment as well as courage, tact as well as Vigor of mind and body, in deed as well as moral courage. Give him chance. But the deliverer will appear. The day is to come when equal rights will not be memory incidental to wonderful dec laration, but real condition. The re- public is to live and grow.
 The day will never come when in this fair land as at Rome under Nero, Wealth, a monster gorged midst star wing populations.
 But gluttony, sensuaiity and ostenta- tion are natural concomitants of money greed.
 To-day men and women do not actu- ally feast upon the brains of peacocks or on nightingale's tongues.
 They do not drink from myrrhine and jeWelled vases. Not many Womens gowns or robes are covered with pearls and emeralds. but the tendency to ex- travagance exists and increases, and also masculine willingness to gratify feminine foolishness and vanity.
 Young men, in this days of money greed, of venality and selfshness, when the trust often attempts to stiie the in- itiative to defy competition and to laugh derisively at ability not backed by great money power. stand, beg you, for commercial integrity, for un- trammelled competition, for equal rights.
 In every relation in life be honest and truthful in it's broadest senses. Set your faces like a flint towards God.
 Be pure, be Christly, then in your own village town or city you will be known, felt, loved and a vital force in the ma terial development of this great repub- lie.
 And better still upon your heads will rest celestial crown. Its inscription is not recognizable on earth, but is known in the countries of the skies"
 Fitted for earth.
 Prepared for Heaven.
 Secondly. The growing tendency amongst young men to either remain single or to marry after they have sowed a large crop of wild oats, which they expect an innocent woman to as- sist in harvesting. Shame upon a man who at thirty-five somehow persuades a young woman to marry a moral or physical wreck, or at least morally and physically, and perhaps mentally weakened by a life of seflshness and self-indulgence.
 The substitution of bachelor apart ments or living at a club for the home is a serious mistake, Do it and you have a shell-not home.
 i Eliminate woman from the fireside and you remove it's charm. Next to love for God is there a love comparable to love for woman?
 Every school boy is familiar with Longfellow's HiaWatha. I will not quote but is it not true respecting the relation between man and woman-use- less each without the other.
 Tennyson in the Princess beautifully sings:
 "Woman is not undeveloped man, but diverse Could we make her as man sweet love were slain. His dearest bond this not like to like, but like in difference"
 ! Bishop Potter in the October number, l1S99, of the North American Review says: "A wise foresight will see that he is the truest friend of the republic who strives to rebuild the home and recreate the family"
 It may be the club is a necessity un- der our modern civilization. Its influ ence ought to be elevating and not de- grading.
 Bacon said that Sir Edward Coke conversed with books and not with men who are the best books. Certainly in the club men converse with men, but when whiskey has fabricated the tongue and the father, husband or brother creates mirth by the recital of obscene incidents, which if reported to the mother, wife, sister or daughter would be disbelieved, then I must con- clude the club by countenancing such lvulgarity and harborng such an offend- CT offers a temptation which if yielded to tends to the degradation of the in- dividual. It thereby strikes at the fem mine heart and may harmfully affect domestic happiness.
 But you reply this is an abuse and not a privilege of the club. Yes. but it becomes every lover of the fireside who would preserve it in its pristine mag nificence to enquire whether case such as have cited is usual or un- usual. What is the influence of the so- cial club? It does not assume to be an adjunct of the church. It is not hypocritical.
