As the command, "Thop shalt not
kill" is openly set at defiance by the
nations, so also is the command,
. "Thou shalt not steaI!"
If an individual is entitled to be
called a notorious and common
thief" what shall we say of the state
that violates the command of the
Holy One every day in the year?
The United States and the states,
} steals a mans time-sOmetimes for
a year; sometimes for ten years;
sometimes for a lifetime!
A mans time is his own. 1t was
given to him by his creator and be-
longs to him. Neither the state nor
the nation has the right except that
, of might to take it away from him
without compensation.
Sometime a wife is dependent upon
her husbands time; sometime an
aged, perhaps, invalid mother; some
time whole family.
What right has the state to steal
from them?
But this is precisely what the state
does whenever it imprisons a man
and apprOpriates his labor without
due compensation, and especially is
this true if the man has mother, wife
and children dependent upon him for
support.
They are innocent parties to the
transaction, why rob them of what
is theirs?
Why, because he is a criminal,
steal from the man himself?
1t is enough for the stateito restrain
him of his liberty, so as TO prevent
him committing other crimes, and
thereby become a protection to So
ciety; or, if it thinks the example
necessary, scourge him with@@stripes;
but not steal his time, which, all too
frequently, is the sole source of de-
pendence for wife and helpless chill
dren.
God makes no exemptions from his
commands; they are as applicable to
nations, states, cities, towns and COM
munities, as they are to the footpad
who turks from his hiding place under
cover of darkness and fells his vic
tim to the earth.

The Tea at mrs. Msughs.

The tea at the home of Mrs. G.
T. Maughs Tuesday afternoon was
extremely pleasant and was attended
by a large number of the ladies Of
Ocala all of whom left a silver offer
ing, which will be given to the church
fund of Grace Episcopal church.
Mrs. Maughs is very gracious
hostess and she was assisted by Mrs.
J. K. Austin, Mrs. E. L. Carney and
Mrs. c. R. Tydings. -
In the DINING room delicious
chocolate, coffee, sandwiches and
cake was served to the ladies by
visses Annie Davis and Pauline
Sullivan. Seated at the table pour
ing the coffee and chocolate were
Mrs. B. A. Weathers and Mrs. II. i.
Ford.

The dollar earned by the felon who
is restrained of his liberty dosn't be-
long to the state and the state has no
more right to it than it has to the
earnings Of others and to take it from
him is in direct violation of the COM
mand which was writ in ineffaceable
letters upon the tables of stone.
In whipping about in search of the
little sins which afflict society and
disturb the pulpits, so far as we have
observed, this big sin has been over
looked by the churches, notwith-
standing it stands out in raised let
tiers in the column of 'ThOu Shalt
Nots'' Numbered from Sinai!

the violation of this natural law.
This being true, why does the state
set the example for its violation?
An ignorant and vicious white man
or negro, as the case may be; or, per-
haps, the one or the other, forced by
the dire necessity of actual want,
steals from his neighbor, and, in
turn. the state straightway steals
from him-steals his time; steals,
perhaps, the youth, the manhood and
the flower of his life.
If there is any difference in the
crime. is it not in favor of the indi-
vidual and against the state?
Because a man disobeys the moral
law and steals, is it any Justification
for the state to do ikewise-to take
the bread out of the mouths of the
mans wife and little ones?
Yet every state in the United
States. and the United States itself,
sets the example of violating this
law. the same as the nations of the
earth, with the tacit consent, if not
active encouragement of every Chris
tian denomination, sets at defiance
that other command of the Great Je-
bovah. "Thou shalt not kill"
See how many men made in the
image of God are being killed by
Russia and Japan in Manchuria to-
day.
See how many were killed by Eng
land and the Beers in South Africa

See the preparations for human
slaughter by all the nations of the

Yet. following the example of his
Government, if for some supposed or
actual wrong, an individual kills
his fellowman, he is swiftly appre-
bended by his government, formally
arraigned and condignly. punished.
Not so, the nation!

Griefstricken Chicago.

Chicago, Jan. 1.-The New Year came
to Chicago with muffled drums. Scarcely
a sound was heard as 1904 entered.
January LIST, day of funerals, was re-
ceived in silence. Streets were almost
deserted, even down town. Men hurried
silently along the sidewalks. There
we're not half dozen horns within the
loop. Merrymakers were quiet when in
the streets and subdued even in the res
taurants. Noise, except in few scattered
districts, was unknown. 1t was a re
markabie spontaneous testimony to the
prevalent spirit throughout the city.
Mayor Harrison had asked, in an official
proclamation, that there be no noise, but
few of those who desisted from the ususal
practices of greeting the new year know
that they had been requested to be silent.
There were mourning families in every
neighborhood crepe in every street
