A PRACTICAL LESSON.
Telling Why Things Are Not AS They
Should Be.

Monday, we received a re.
quest from Ed Donaho, of Have
lock, Iowa. TO send him copies
Of the DEMOCRAT. He said; l
want to see what kind Of coun-
try you have. l think some of
com ng down to your place, am
looking for a location.
The request and explana ton
is short, but ought to mean a
whole volume to every business
man in this city. This town and
vicinity will be rated by the
rating he gives the two copies
of the DEMOCRAT sent him.
Does those two issues of the
paper represent the business of
Monroe? No. WHY? Because
some Of the business men of
Monroe are too indifferent to
their own interests both com
mercially and in real estate
values to advertise and let the
outer world know the advan-
tages possessed aud offered by
them to new corners.
New comers-emmigrauts
from other states-medns in
creased business for every class
of business and enhanced val.
ues for all classes Of real es-
tate holdings.
The DEMOCRAT is persisten t
in it's effort to push things
along. 1t is not a kicker in
any sense of the word, but in
all condor, it nor any other pa
per outside of the metropoIita n
press, is appreciated at home
or receives the home support
that it should. Therefore the
business people suffer more
by it than the paper does for
the simple reason, they have
more to lose.

Blow En- Up.

AS a result of the notice in
the DEMOCRAT, regarding stock
being shot by hunters, a prom
lnent farmer requested the pen.
Gil pusher TO "blow up the
hunters that are running over
my place" Our reply was: 1
won't do it. Why should the
DEMOCRAT hamme: away week
by week at those fond Of dogs
and guns when the farmers, the
really interested parties will
not do it. Why should the
DEMOCRAT shoulder the i'll will
of all the hunters when the
farmers refuse to shoulder that
of a few? The farmer has the
law backing him, the DEMO,
Graf has not, Every farmer
whether his farm be posted or
not can prosecute for trespass
unless the hunter or hunters
have special permit to shoot
over his place and if he values
his game and stock shou d do
so. Every farmer who has post.
ed his farm should by all means
announce it through the DEMO
Graf at the beginning of each
bird season for then is when
the real trouble and actual loss
generally occurs. While it is
true that the censure of the
press carries great weight, there
is no,reason why it should tote
all the censure that should be
toted fairly by others.
This paper is with, for and
largely by the farmers and we
are glad to help push any good
thing along, but we are like the
old parson was when he wanted
a vacation and his deacon OBJ.
iected and wanted to know
what had made the need of it.
The parsons reply was: Well,
I've been trying to pull the Old
Ship of Zion out of the slough
of dispoud for many years, now
you try it a while.

of that Christianity which has
made us such a powerful nation,
and and has so wonderfully de-
hvered us from all superstition
and oppression.
This then is a Christian ma
ton, constructed by Christian
people, and for Christian ends,
their religion the common law
of the land.
The Christian religion is so
inwrought into the laws OF the
United States that they can
only be wisely interpreted by
the light of the revealed word
of God. A very distinguished
American jurist has said that
1.-THE best features of the com
mon law, if not derived from.
have at least been improved
and strengthened by. the pre-
yailing religion and teachings
of the sacred book, especially
those that regard the family
and social relations.
And Chief Justice Cooley in
his great work Oh "Constitu
tional Limitations" has given
this opinion, which has all the
weight of the highest judicial
authority: 1.-The Christian re-
ligion was always recognized
in the administration OF com
mon law; and so far as the law
continues to be the law OF the
land. the fundamental princi-
Piles of religion must continue
to be recognized in the same
sense and to the same extent"
Daniel Webster, the great
''expounder of the constitution
in the celebrated Girard will
case before the Supreme Court
of the United States, in Febru
ary, 1874, most ably advocated
the doctrine that Christianity
is the common law of this ma
ton. He sought to set aside
the munificent'devise of Stepher
Girard for the establishment O.
a college in Philadelphia, or
the ground that the testatol
had Disseminated against the
Christian religion, even going
so far as to provide that nj
minister of Christ should eve
be admitted within its walls
With imperial eloquence hi
discussed the vital connection
between religion and education
and triumphantly showed tina
he who would profanely divorce
the two made ruthless assault
upon the common law of th'
land.
Here, in part, is what tn
great jurist said on that occa
sion: 1T is the same in Penn
sylvania as elsewhere; the gen
eral principles and public pol
icy are sometimes established
by constitutional provisions
sometimes by general consent
But however they may be es
tablished, there is nothing W
look for with more certanty.tha
the general principle tina
Christianity is a part of tn
law of the land. This was tn
