There have been some telling blows
of late that have simply paralyzed the
Democratic party and it's allies. They
know it just a. well as we do and feel
it too, so much 50 that they have become
desperate and even before that party
musters up enough fellows TO make
announcements to fill out county tic
ket, they begin TO make threats of what
they are going to do. They even go so
far as to intimate strongly that the
party lash is to be applied but by the
time they get through nominating the
slate they have fixed up, especially as
to the office of sheriff, the Republicans
will-have walk-oyer.

Right now Che word has been passed
around by some that Democratic sher-
III must be elected this fall. and yet
there are many men, thousands of them,
who recall distinctly the conditions that
existed under Democratic sherifrs, and
the truth of it is they are up in arms
at the suggestion. You can count on
the farmers of this county, who lived
under Democratic sherifrs, voting the
Republican ticket. They remember the
reforms Holmes, Alexander, Lang and
Fleming have brought about in the sher-
iff's Office.

The Democratic politicians of the
county are 50 alarmed over the situation
that the decree has gone forth for their
papers to lambast everybody and every
thing that is opposed to them in any way
but the plot is 50 plain that the more
they say the less weight they have.
The Republican party is out to win this
time as never before and the rank and
file will show the enemy thing or two.

that il is fitting recognition to endorse
Tor delegate at large TO the Democratic
convention one who Dolted the party, to
suit mis- own convenience and interest.
Really it would be more like the Repub-

it was openly charged by leading mem
bcrs of the Democratic party two years
age that he voted for Mckinley, and, if
our recollection does not fail us, he
never denied the accusation.

After the revolution of 1888 the ration ahstic tendencies of the Japanese broke out with marvellous force. It was like the effect of the French revolution on the religious thought of Europe.
 "A wave of rationaIistic thought then swept over the country" he. said "The professors of the universities led it. Shintoism was seen to be dead. Even Buddhism became incredible. It came to be mark of ignorance to believe in re- ligion; a mark of intelligence to despise It. Leaders of Japanese thought shook 1t off as a tradition of the past and reached out fer what they believed the sclid fruits of thought. science. art and literature.
 But nation cannot exist without a religion. There are today in Japan both Christianity and Buddhism. It is a que3- tion if Christianity will totally eradicate Brddhism from Japan. It is a question If either Professionalism or Catholicism will become the national religion of Japan. Prophets are in pcor repute. but if were to venture to prophecy l would say that the future Peligicn of Japan would be either greatly modified Buddhism or a Christianity entirely Japanzed'
 In conversation with the auditors who gsthered around him at the close of the lecture Dr. IyenIga stated that the ger- eral trend of religious thought in Japan was toward Unitarianism.
