Standing Your Ground.

Devotion to principle means stand
ing your ground when it would be
easier to yield to the temper. The
Christian who endures temptation does
not go up to empty conquest. The
strength which he gets In contesting
his ground must be his defense when
strong foes afterward assail him. Some
times men have turned back appalled,
because of the foe and habit of evil
passion that stood between them and
a better life. Their need is Of faith1
Gods power and willingness to give
them victory. The real conquest Of
Canaan was when faith rose to the
point of taking God at his word, and
they said: "We will go up and possess
the land" This is the victory that
overcometh the world, even your faith.

THAT "NEw RULE".

This dissatisfaction has been
brought about by certain new
rule" which provides for a caucus
in the evening, two days before the
time set for the primaries at which
caucus the delegates are to be
elected. 1t seems that a very few
knew anything about this rule
and that they didn't say anything
till the evening of the caucus. We
have never saw the rule in print
and only heard it read at the eau
Gus, and for what purpose it was
invented no one seems able to clear
ly explain and thus far we have
been unable to figure it out for our
selves. If notice is given as pro-
vided in the rule everyone can at
tend the caucus the same as they
would the primary; unless, on ac-
count of its being held in the even
ing ladies who are timid or who
have families to look after might not
attend caucus held in the evening
when they would attend a primary
held in the daytime, thus making
1t easier for political tricksters to
carry their point. II makes little
difference for what purpose the
rule was made, suffice to say 1t has
caused dissension which will tell
nightly at the election in Novem-
Der, especially in the voting for
certain candidates. If this "new
rule" had been published or post
ed several days before the caucus,
as it should have been, all this
trouble would have been avoided.
At the best this "new rule" looks
to us like an unnecessary evil and,
like sleeps tail, the sooner il is
cut of the less dirt there will be to
