righteousness exalteth a nation,
but sin is a reproach to any people"
Carlyle said "Man is the born en-
envy of lies" However that may be,
1t is certain that all falsity is unprof-
table. The wrong thing is the evil
thing for man Our good lies ever on
the side of right. No permanent adj
vance can be made by the individual
or the nation except In the path of
righteousness. The immoral is the
dangerous. Sin against the person is
crime against the state. The firm base
of national prosperity is in the integ-
rity and freedom Of its citizens.
The oppression of any body of the
people is a menace to the stability of
the government. The danger turks not
altogether In the risk of resentment
and revolt on the part of the wronged
ones, but is ever present in the lawless-
ness of the oppressors. Those who de
fraud in one direction and Cypress any
one are likely to steal and enslave
wherever they may have the chance to
do so for their own ends. When honor
is lost the defense of the nation is gone.
The idea Of the state is union of per
sons for the common veal. The asso-
citation Is called the commonwealth.
The aims are mutual defense, prosper
lty and happiness. If one class may be
allowed TO disregard the rights of any
other the bond which unites all is sew

best he can, and there is then no ma
tional life, but anarchy, which is the
opposite of society.
The impulse to get together is nat
ural to men. Cooperation is the neces-
sity if any work is to be done beyond
that possible to the one person alone.
But in cooperation the ability and
needs of each one must be considered
and provided for. To deny to any one
bis just dues is to hinder him from do
ing his Just share of work and rob the
community Of some benefit of his labor
The sin against him becomes the crime
against the whole society, and the in
terest of all is in aiding him to get his
just dues and doing his proper share
of the common toll. Unrighteousness
is an Industrial. economical and polit-
ical as well as a moral and religious
wrong.
The principle reaches still further
than this. For one nation to Cypress
another is as unwise as it is unjust
The consequences may not be seen at
once. but the fruit of oppression will
appear In disaster sooner or later. His
tory proves beyond all doubt the truth
of this text from the old wisdom book
of the Hebrews, Spanish oppression
of Cuba and the other American col
onies is shown to be disastrous, not SO
much by the defeat of Spanish navies
and armies, by revolt of colonies and
dependencies, as by the decay of Span
ish national life and prosperity at
home. Goodness is strength.

COMMENTS ON
RECENT EVENTS

1t seems to2 be well established
that the negro lynching at Whining
ton would not have occurred had the
court, which at the time was sitting
in that city, listened to the demand
Of the indignant citizens that the
self-confessed criminal be immediate
ly placed upon trial. The court adj
journed until September without
giving any attention to the case.
When the citizens realized that it
would be months before the wretch
would be brought to trial and con-
sidered the probabilities Of his es-
Gaping through such delay the full
measure of punishment that he de-
served for brutally assaulting and
numbering an innocent young girl,
they concluded that justice, as re-
presented by the courts, was remiss
in it's duty, and they took the law
into their own hands, committing a
deed that has stained the good name
of their city and native State
The judges excuse their failure to
promptly arraign the prisoner upon
the ground that the community was
50 greatly worked up over the crime
that it would have been impossible
for the prisoner to have received a
fair hearing. Why, then, was he
not removed to some neighboring
city for speedy trial? The judges
could have arranged for fair and
just trial Of the negro within forty
eight hours after his arrest, and the
lynching would have been averted.
No crime known to civilization is
more atrocious than that which was
committed by the negro at Whining
ton. The mob committed another
crime in executing the man without
process of law; but in case of this
kind where Justice is tardy aroused
manhood is apt to forget its relation
ship to government and to think
only of ayenging the terrible outrage
perpetrated upon womanhood, punish
ing the unspeakable monster and
warning other depraved wretches
like him who despoil the honor of
their daughters or their wives and
sweethearts.
Mob law is dreadful thing to
contemplate and cannot be too
strongly condemned; but it would be
more dreadful to contemplate race
of men who would fail TO regard and
value the virtue of womanhood and
to protect it.

1t would be the advancement of
civilization if Seryia and some of the
other small Kingdoms in southeastern
Europe were divided among the world
powers.
Such division probably would be inn
possible to-day without a great war
involving half of Europe, and warfare
is not to be desired, whatever it's pur-
pose; but if annexation could be ac-
complished peacefully it could not take
place too soon.
The people of Seryia, the Balkin
states and Turkey appear to be little

strife is continual and the most shock
Ing outrages are committed at the in
stigation or with the permission of
the authorities, local and national.
If these little monarchies we're
stamped out and the territory annexed
to one or more of the enlightened
powers, the home government would
put an end to all barbarous practices
even if it required the massing of it's
entire military and naval strength.

Whitelaw Reid's recent address be-
fore the Vassar Phi Beta Kappa So
ciety was a protest against the restless
ness that has of late years entered into
American life. Though his talk was
given to girls, it applied alike to both
sexes, yonng and old. Mr. Reid pro-
tested against that constant fitting
from the city to the country and from
country to the city which has become
the modern fashion; that unrest which
drives one from ones own land to
Europe, and if abroad, impels one to
take the first steamer home; which in
cites the pleasure-seeker to confront
dust, heat, fatigue and all sorts of
hardships in mountain climbing, or to
rush through the country on ''red
devil at the rate of forty or fifty miles
an hour.
The vehement vacuity" and the
boredom of this life, of which those
who suffer it's discomforts talk''with
such garrulity and in such superlative
phrases, were dwelt upon by Mr.. Reid.
He also descanted upon the ideay'of
its votaries that privacy is deadly dull
ness, and their desire to be always be-
fore the footlights and to occupy the
center of the stage this apprehension
that if your name is not every other
days in the newspapers, you are out of
the world; that if you do not see every
intimate fact about yourself or your
friends "thrust naked and shameless
under the public eye, you are dropping
out of the swim.
Some of the girls to whom the veteran
editor spoke, perhaps thought him an
old fogy and felt in their hearts that
they would rather listen to Mr.. Roose-
welt and his gospel of the strenuous
life. But some day when they tire
of this rush and change and hurry,
when brain, heart and muscle alike
give way, they will conclude that Mr..
Reid was about right; that rest and
quiet are really CRATER boons to hui
manity than perpetual motion, and
that what the veteran editor APPLY
calls the "gregariousness and glare"
of this modern life, with its mad pur-
suit of pleasure, must end in WEAKNESS
and disenchantment.
