Some men tyrify qualities; Mr..
Hanna from first TO last stood as a man
Of business. II WAS through his bust

there was no change in his methods.
As senator he Illustrated the same
qualities which had made for success
in his private enterprises, and as the
chairman Of the National Committee he
inquired on the mems necessary to ac-
complish certain ends and then em-
ployed them.
Of course Mr.. Hanna was not the

life he was said to be most anable and
kindly generous to mis- friends and
giving much evidence Of rather broad
culture
nut before an else, he was a practical
man OF affairs ''There Is no senti-

wide acceptance. and may httingly

cHURcH ANp AMuseMeNrs.

The Peninsula Methodist Is at pres
ent devoting much space to the ques-
ton OF amusements for church mem-
bers, and OF course there is no objec-
tion TO a fun discussion Of this import
ant topic by the secular press, since II
is by the thrashing out OF ideas that
we approximate truth.
In the latest issue there is leading
article on "The Theatre" from the pen
Of the Rev. A. w. J.ightbourne. and
another article OF some length cnti-
tlod "Dr Lightbourne's answer to the
Journal Editor" In the interests OF
fairness, as wen as clearness. it might
have been better had the Peninsula
Methodist printed a line or two Of what
the Journal Editor said. as that
would have been the course Of seeu-
lar paper AS il stands there il an an
swer to something that does not APP
pear.
There is very much in Dr. Light
h6urne's remarks hat we cannot as.
sent to. and which we do not think is
borne out by experience. For in
stance, he says:
public opinion stands behind the IN
decencies of the dance the vulgarities
Of the theatre, .and-the horrors OF the
licensed saloon"
We deny It. since that Is an impeach-
ment Of our people and our race.
Public opinion does not stand behind
indecencies. vulsarIties or horrors OF
any sort. Indeed. public opinion is
against the indecencies Of the dance
or Of the promenade, the vulgarities
Of the theatre and Of the picnic and
the horrors of the saloon or of any 9th
er place individual opinion may in-
dorse these things. but public opinion
does not Public opinion lndorses only
those amusements or diversions that It
regards as innocent and harmless.
There is side to this amusement
question which is presented by the
Christian Advocate TO which we give
our assent. There is some reason ip
this position.
''The only way to escape the obliga-
tion 10 believe the doctrines and To
keep her rules is TO withdraw from the
church. for the door Is wide open, for
one to get out OF the church as 1t is
for them to'get IN. A vow voluntarily
and publicly taken is binding. 1t Is
not enough to say the church has nc
right To adopt such rules and therefore
I viii do as ] please. We cannot es-
cape the force OF obligation by sucH
logic, for the church has the right tc
legislate for the moral and spiritual
welfare Of her members"
And therefore, it would seem thai
the Methodist church should enforc,
its rule. or abrogate it. The evidence
Of its constant violation is ever befor'
us, and while the church may say
"obey our rules. or get out" member
may retaliate With: "Ahrogate YOU
rules or put us out"
