"The Greatest of These is Love"

Christian fellowship is possible only be-
cause of love. 1t is the only ground on
which different faiths can meet. Christian
unity is not and cannot be found in creed,
for there are no two persons OF the same
church even that read and understand the
Scriptures alike, much less those of differ
ent faiths. Instead of being nearer to-
gcther after discussion of their creed
they are further apart Christian unity
cannot be effected in our creed. Such is
impossible. 1t is not found in our politv.
Here the same difficulties confront us as
before. Nor is it to be fonnd in our tastes
Indeed. il there is any difference it is that
we get farther apart here than OF any
other ground. Creed, or politv. or tastes
are not possible grounds of unity, indeed.
they are impossible grounds. There is but
one possible ground. and that is found in
love. We may differ in our ideas concern
ing creed and polity and in our tastes- but
il We have love in our hearts we can strike
hands with our neighbor and say, My
brother. Rams Horn.

Blessing Ourselves.

Cod blcsses Us by enabling US to bless
ourselves. Blessings are largely the result
OF reaction; they are the return upon our
selves of that which we do. Just as mod.
ern mechanism has made the recoil OF
great forces a great part OF the value OF
those forces - the recoil of rapid fire
guns does almost all the work OF those
guns-so divine Power makes, out of the
reaction of what we do, our own fates to
condemn us, or our own angels to bless u.s.
We confess this truth in the proverb that
We make our own beds, and must lie on
them. God gives us the words of life
words OF labor or duty or love or burden,
but We set them to mrsic, and life is q
melody or threnody largely from the way
in which we set the measure. Familiar
are Emersons words: "Tf you love OF
serve, you cannot. by any hiding or strata
gem, escape the remuneration" God rules
and God SO rules that no man or manner
of event can rob US OF the prize that God
has fitted us to prepare for ourselves

Power of One Belief.

change too much; if We realized God as
He really is we could think of nothing
else. This / do not admit. The thought
of God should be to the best of our think

At the close of meeting in Joliet Hi
noiS. l sat down beside an honored evan
gelist, Rev H. W. Brown. and among
other things in his career, he told me this
story:
A number OF ycars before he had re-
markabie work of grace in the lake region
of Wisconsin in that town of the strange
name. Oconomowoc. After his work of
grace he returned one day for little visit.
and as he stepped of from the cars he saw
1T the station an old man named James
why he was there. The old man replied
that his boy had gone away from home
and had said to him. Father. ! will re-
turn some dav. but l can not tell when"
and said he. Il am waiting for him to come
back Strange as it may seem. thirteen
years ,fterward he revisited that old town.
and the first man be saw when getting OFF
from the cars was this old father. He had
forgotten his story. but he met him. say.
ing, "Mr Brown ne hasn't come yet but
he will come, and l am waiting" Just
then said my friend, 'I lifted I'D my

the Ger. and s,id to myself. If I wa. not
sure that the boy was dead I would say
that that was the SON." But other eyes
had seen him. too. and with great bound
the old father sprang to tn. steps OF the
car. and when the boy reached the Mat
form. and in less time than can tell it,.
he was in his fathers arms. The old fath.
er sobbed out. "Oh. my son. thank God,
you've come, you've come and then,
turning to my friend. he said. "Mr.
Brown should have waited until l died"

"IIIS FATHER SAW HIM"

Mr.. Moody says that that father was
looking through the telescope of his love.
] Gav" always felt that lie was looking
through his tears. 1t is said that when as
tronomers want to increase the scope Of
their vision they add to the number of
lenses. and sometimes our falling tears are
like the lenses in the telescope They
bring objects far removed nigh unto us.
But what a comfort it is to know that
the Great Father OF us all looks after us
with pity that is infinite and with svm-
pathy that is beyond conception. The
vision of the father of the prodigal was
limited, but Gods eye sweeps through all
space, and He sees us wherever we are.

dent of the court that tried Wirz and
convicted him and hung him on per-
iured evidence. The longer ! live the
more I am convinced that as gen.
eral rule the smartest men are the

Think of Henry Ward Beecher preach
ing from his pulpit that Sharp's rifles
were better than Bibles to convert the
slave owners of the south and so ms
people bought the rifles and the am
munition and told old John Brown to
90 ahead. But the niggers were loyal
to their masters and wouldn't burn
nor kill nod destroy. And hence Lew
wallace and Adams and many others
armed all they could muster up and
ioined the grand army and marched
them down upon our helpless women
and children. At that time there were
20 coo runaways up north-fugltiVe
.layes-the meanest OF the race and
nobody but an unprincipled dog or a
man would have led them against US.

Don't believe the lies being spread
broadcast by the city ownership peo-
pie The campaign of the city owner
ship people has been an abusive one
against some of the very best citizens
of Grand Junction. a campaign of
villificatinn should appeal to no one.
especially to those who have arrived
at the time of life, when they can
weigh what man says for its full
worth. You will doubtless have mat
ter thrust before your eyes that no
man with any honor would pen. This
has been the style of campaign of the
men back of the city ownership ticket
for wears. Give all such matter the

selected, and can do so again The
prosperity and happiness of the peo-
pie as whole, is of more concern
than the success of any ticket. The
utterances of this paper, in the pres
ent campaign have been the honest
conviction of its editor, and The Sen

crucial period in its history, in the
growth of industrial enterprise de-
mands the reelection of Mayor Samp-

If the democrats of this city at to-
morrow's election do not repudiate
the boilers of the regularly organized
municipal convention, they deserve
to be defeated evermore, both in city
and county affairs. Here the regu,
larly constituted partw goes into con
vention aud nominates a ticket. Be-
cause it does not suit NJ. l.. Allison
and William Campbell, they petition
another ticket in the field and attempt
to disrupt the party to which they
pretend to claim allegiance. If that
is not about as traitorous an action as
any one could be guilty of. by one at
lenst of the men who has enjoyed the
emolument of office under democratic
rule, then we do not know how to
characterize such monumental treach-
ery.
