why he was elected to remain in New
York instead, where he is the pastor
of the Madison Avenue Baptist church.
He gives seven reasons-the influ-
ence upon the nation of its metropolis
the enormous foreign population need
ing Americanization, the moral perils''
of unrestricted ballot in such a COM
munity, the vast floating population,
the number of students here, and of
young men and women away from
home; every reason being in its nature
social, not doctrinal.
Why, the call to this eloquent Bap-
fist came from a Methodist church!
Could that have happened in 1855?
DR.. Lorimer is himself the type of
the new eloquence. He was not reared
like Beecher and Storrs in the clerical
and scholarly atmosphere of par
sonage, but was restless Scottish lad
who at Is ran away to sea, and who
was afterward a carpenter, law stu
dent and an actor before he became a
clergyman. Such man, with such an
experience, knows how to talk to men.
He is tall, genial, gray-eyed. unpre-
tentious. His homely illustrations and
forceful talk are those of practical life,

Chicago, Mr.. Campbell straight from

thing like small riot rose in the ranks

it political impetus.
Then Mr.. Stokes, who is now Mr.. Hun

phatic protest, and the uptown critics
were made to beat a retreat.

SURRENDER OF ROOSEVELT.
President for the Gain
of Office.

There is no longer any question that
President Roosevelt has abandoned any
idea of tariff revision or reciprocity. His
evident acceptance of the Ohio "compro-
mise" demonstrates that. Last year
President Roosevelt, in what was doubt
less carefully considered speech on the
tariff and trust issue, told us that the
Sherman law was inadequate and con-
stitutional amendment was essential
to control the trusts. The Ohio repub-
llcan platform says, Combinations for
the monopoly of trade and kindred I'M
lawful purposes are directly amenable
to penalties provided by republican
legislation" meaning, of course, that
the Sherman law is ample to control the
trusts. Which of these statements now
stands, that of the president or Senator
Hanna? Neither do the same authori-
ties agree on the tariff as affecting the
trusts. while the Ohio platform, after
declaring as above quoted on the con-
troll of monopolies, further says: mo
worthy interest is imperiled, but what
ever will work public harm is restrained
and that without resort to the demo-
cratic plan Of destroying all American
industries through tariff revision or
otherwise This is a plain statement
that the trusts must be preserved, says
the Indianapolis Sentinel.
This is not the first time that President
Roosevelt has abandoned his tariff prin-
ciples for office. 1t is not generally
known that he was originally a pro-
nounced free trader and member of
the New York Free Trade club in the
SOS. But after he had been elected to
the legislature as an Independent" he
went over to the Plat crowd, which he
had been elected to fight, and resigned
his membership in the Free Trade club,
stating in his letter of resignation to
Mr.. Poultney Bigelow, the secretary, ~
am republican first and free trader
afterward"
