The Machine"

An editorial found in the Shell
bina Democrat: The fact is this:
Honest Democrats are being I'M
willingly forced to the conclusion
that there is a state machine, and
that this machine is not as scrupu-
lous about means as desired,
that this machine is determined to
retain power and is now engaged
in an effort to discredit and crush
Folk or be crushed itself. The
machine sees the handwriting on
the wall and understands it must
crush Folk or be crushed itself.
The honest people prefer a new
deal aud will take Folk in prefer.
ence to the machine Democrats
may as well speak plainly and face
the facts and the issue. In this
state within the Democratic partJ
the fight is between the machine
and those who are determined tC
purify politics. There is no neu-
trail ground. Democrats mus
take sides either for Or against th'
machine and its evil tendencies.

pleaded and wept in vain.
She told him he was losing such
valuable time, that his lessons
would pass from his mind like the
novels. Though he loved her best
of all, the fascination could not be
broken, for the novels were first
class and he could see no harm in
reading. One evening he hurried
home to tell his mother that Way
lands Moral Science had con
WINGED him that slavery is wrong.
She replied, David, God recog-
nizes slavery, and in this way ele-
Yates the inferior races, but slaves
have rights; among them is the
knowledge of God and their relig-
ious duties. "
God shall enlarge Japheth, and
Canaan shall be his servant" said
his father.
David was convinced that what
God does or permits is all for the
best, and this settled the question.
The election in December gave
the Little Giant, Stephen A. Doug
lass of Illinois. more than one mill
lion votes, John c. Breckenridge
about half as many and John Bell
of Tennessee about five hundred
thousand, though the electoral
vote was for Mr.. Lincoln, $50,
with a popular vote of 1857, 610,
and all the three other candidates
1913 with combined vote of 1904, e
$50. South Carolina took the
lead in secession in November.
The Misses Ruffner and Miss
Sue Spencer gave David's home a
serenade one night after school
and sang:
There's a region above,
Free from sin and temptation,
And a mansion of love,
For each heir of salvation;
Then dismiss all thy fears,
Weary pilgrim of sorrow,
Though thy sun set in tears,
Twill rise brighter tomorrow.
There our tolls will be done,
And free grace be our story;
God, Himself, be our sun,
And our unsetting glory,
In that world Of delight,
Spring shall never be ended,
Nor shall shadows or night
With its brightness be blended.
There shall friends no more part,
Nor shall farewells be spoken,
There'lI be balm for the heart,
That with anguish was broken,
From affection set free,
And from God meier to sever,
We His glory shall see,
And eniOy Him forever.
David committed these words tC
memory and would cheer his way
by singing them and considering
their comforting thoughts.
