THE MORAL.

A Chicago gentleman, greatly in
terested in Sunday school work, was
recently paying visit to clergyman
at Coplay, Pa. ,and was asked to attend
Sunday school at his hosts church
and address a few remarks to the
children. He took the familiar theme
of the children who Knocked Elijah
on his journey to Bethel-how the
youngsters taunted the poor old
prophet and how they were punished
when two she bears came out of the
wood and ate forty and two of them.

THE Centralia Courier correctly:
The people believe in the initiative
and referendum and have never
failed to n adopt constitutional
amendment to that end when given
an opportunity. Last week such
an amendment was carried in the
state of Oregon with less than IA
thousand votes against it. The
truth is the scheme has almost be-
come indispensable in these times
of lobby ridden legislatures. Its
about the only remedy left the pco-
pie to get needed legislation on
parament matters, and the day is
coming when such an amendment
will be adopted by every state i'll the
union.
