And these instances might be multiplied al
most enGlessly.
The scriptures ASSUME that God is the father
to all, and nowhere indicate that He is any less
father to one than to another.
We confess that we have no sympathy with
the idea which we have heard preached and
which seems to form the basis of the religion
OF some people-an idea which depicts the AL
mighty as a harsh Judge seated on throne,
who has to be complimented and pacifed and
placated tefore any dare approach Him.
Let them who will hold to this idea. But
for us, we prefer to think of God as He was pre-
sented in the character of the tender, loving
Christ, who event about doing good"
We prefer to think of Him as father who
loves ALI. his children, and provides for them,
and is interested in all they are doing, and sym.
pathzes in all their troubles.
And we do not believe that anyone can
study the Bible Alright who does not read it in
the light of the fatherhood of God and the
brotherhood of man.

Says Neither Old Party Will Tackle 1t.
A NEW PARTY MAY BE NECESSARY.
A Very Interesting Interview.

WASHINGTON, Dec. Ex-senator John T.
Morgan, of Alabama, is disgusted with the
trust situation it is presented in congress
and BY the politicians of the country. Senator
Morgan is the second oldest senator in the up
perlegislative body. In Alabama, he is po-
litical oracle. Throughout the South, he ranks
among the foremost statesmen in the country,
In the senate, he has the confidence ana respect
Of his colleagues. He has been member of
the United States senate for twenty-five years,
and has taken conspicuous part in all import
ant legislation of his time. In an interview,
Senator Morgan thus expresses himself:
~ canno, see that there is any great differ
ence between the leaders of the Democratic
and Republican parties on the question of
trusts. Whichever party is out of power cries
out against the octopus; whichever party is in
power hugs the octopus to his breast Political
afiiation seems to be shield against the
glitter of great wealth. The strength corporate
wealth has attained in the United States is cal
culated to fill one with awe. The president
and congress are pgmies beside it. 1t is feared
by the leaders of both political parties. The
po, has no ground upon which TO criticse the
kettles blackness Democrats and Republic.
ans alike on the stump rave and shout and pro-
Tess eagerness to engage in mortal combat with
the giant. They come to congress or assume
executive Office, and their limbs are paralyzed
ard their tongues sienced.
rs ldom, if ever, has question of such
ow, ,whelming importance arisen ii our eco
n. IN de velopment. 1t is pressing for solution,
and il will be solved. The Republican party
ma, solve it, or the Democratic party may solve
II. 1t may be that if no solution is found,
new party will arise on the ruins of the old
ones. The solution may come soon, or it may
betlQng delayed 1t depends on how speedily
The American people awaken to their peril. 1
am inclined to believe there will be dark days
before the awakening comes-days full of want
and suferng and disaster. My belief also is
that out of the demand for solution of this
4 question will be wrought political revolution
Ia revolution that will shake party organiza-
ton at its hase--perhaps wipe it out"

The FatherhOOd of God.
National New Era.

National New Era.
Several CORRESPONDENTS have written us OBJ
jec.ing to our statement that God is the father
of all men.
Some have gone to the trouble to send us
printed matter bearing on the subject, so tina.
we might be instructed more perfectly.
The contention of these friends is that God
is tn e father only of 'those who believe.''
II these friends wish to establish little
monopoly for themselves, we have no disposition
to argue the question with them at length
They have right to retain their opinion, and
preie- to retain ours, believing it to be far
more consistent with the charachter of God as
revealed i'll the personality of Christ, in whom
we are told was all the fullness of the godhead
manifested.
We do no. find in the Bible any specific
statement on the subject. God is referred to
ther," without any specifications that he was
the father only Of some or of a certain class,
or of those who had complied with certain
conditions.
Christ said that God so loved the WORLD that
he gave His only begotten Son." etc. Now
that is a pretty clear declaration of Gods love
for the WORLD, and it was evidently not alone
for those who count themselves already saved.
Paul in the same line says, "God com mend
eth HIS OWN love for us in that while we were
yet sinners, Christ died for u.s."
That would seem to indicate degree of love
tor the world and for sinners that would exceed
the love of any ordinary father.
Christ called attention to the fact, which
everyone can see, that God sends His rain on
the just and the unjust. 1t is clearly evident
that God has provided for the needs and the
com orts of ALL men in manner that indicates
to the highest degree the ''fatherhood of Cod"
In the parable of the prodigal son, the father
was as much the father of the prodigal before
his return as afterwards.
In the parable of the lost sheep, the shepherd
was as much the shepherd when he was ,n.-
ing the sheep through the wilderness as after
he had found it.

Individualism and Socialism.
From The Christian.

From The Christian.
The gospel OF indivdualism is only half the
truth. Socialism is the other half. There can
be no true social relationship or brotherhood
that is not based upon the full recognition of
the absolute individuality and freedom of each
member of that order, and which does not bend
all the resources of the combined whole, in
impartial ministry, to the perfection of each
individual life. Nor, on the other hand, can
there be perception of the individual, except
as he, in turn, gives himself in devotion to
perfection of the whole. The realization of
this constitutes the perfection and bliss of
heaven, ald only he translation o! this heav.
ly state into the life on earth can bring in the
long. .prophesied millennium.
Man, in his individual capacity, can no more
work out the perfection of his own personal
life independent of the help i'd associate inAu.
ence of others, than could one of the organs of
the human body perform its functions and live
Its individual life separated from the body.
Nevertheless, the individuality of each organ
in the body is complete, though one be co.
ordinating head and supremely influencing
factor.

SENATOR ELKINs says we should build fifty
more battle ships. He gives it as his opinion
that the United States is sure to become in

powers on account of our expansion policy.
Elkus is also in favor of making appropriation
for starting work in every arsenal and gun fac
tory in this country.

Wheeling newspaper says that the
ratification of the Panama canal treaty
with Columbia and the subsequent con
struction of the canal means a great deal
for the state of West Virginia. 1t would
be the means of giving new outlet for
the shipment of coal, as wen As a new
market for the product. Millions Of bush
els of coal would be shipped down the
Ohio and Mississippi rivers to New Or

canal to the Pacific coast, where it could
find ready market at prices that would
