FAILURES OF GOD
TAKEN AS SUBJECT
Interesting Sermon Is Preached
by the Rev. Frank
Fay Eddy.
DEVIL ALREADY DEAD
AND ANTITHESIS MUST GO"
Unitarian Minister Is ExpIor-
ing a New Field of
Thought.

There was a large attendance at the
services of the First Unitarian society
Sunday in Unity hall The music was
of the usual excellence. Mrs. Bessie
Splers Browning gave the solo. and the
UNITY quartette beautiful anthem. The
theme of Rev. Frank Fay Eddy in the
sermon was 1.-The Failures of God as
Shown by the Theology OF the Past, !"
Tins was placed in contrast with the
God idea offered in evolutionary
thought. Some extracts from Mr..
Eddy sermon follow:
From our human point OF view how often
the plans OF God seem To end in failure. II
Is only the part OF wisdom 10 admit that this
may only be seeming failure and that our
limited vision Is faulty and inadequate. But
we must see and judge as humans or not at
all. There Is no way of detaching ourselves
from ourselves. In future ages some superior
race may wonder ut our crude ideas. but we.
none the less. must 1--we in the kind of a
universe We are capable of realizing in our
thoughts. The hopeful phase of the matter
Hes in our capacity for progress and our
ability 10 make corrections in scheme
Of things. Every lime Of transition lis neces-
sarily time OF criticism. We get far enough
away from our old idolatrios 10 be logical
about them. Thus NO arc rapidly losing our
old idea OF God. OF that personal God who
was kind OF enlarged human autocrat.
Devil Already Dead.
The devil Is already dead. and tho God
who was his antithess is bound 10 go. We
said he was omnipotent. omiscient and

much, but still ascending. The universe
is in process of nux and constantly
assumes new aspects. So the seeming
failures of God are seen 80 be but the
incompletions Of his plan of cvolutions.
In this mental readjustmeut we are los
ing the old God Of caprice and losing
something of the old sense of personal
relationship, but are replacing it with
a thought of a divine mind behind the
processes of eternal energy. We do not
necessarily lose the sense of mystical
communion which must ever be at the
heart Of religion.

DOES THE PRESIDENT coNDoNE
LYNcHING7

Theodore Roosevelt, President OF
the United tSates has dropped
the Colored people of this country
about as hard as any politician ever
dropped an element which helped
elect him to Office. Not even the At
lanta massacre moved him to speech
or action. But We were hardly ready
for the news that, after humiliating
the Colored soldiers of the 25th in
fsntry by removing them from
Brownsville, Texas, at the request OF
whites who were enraged because the
Colored troops resented their insults,
and after affronting the Colored peo-
Ple OF the country by removing these
Colored troops outside of the State
OF Texas. he now demands that these
soldiers. the same that saved the day
at FL Caney, must tell which Of their
comrades took the stand against the
Texas whites, or the whole battalion
will be dishOnorably discharged.
But still a more astounding spec
tGcle is presented by the President
when he receives with especial cor
diality as his guest at the Executive
Mansion of the nation the sheriff and
deputies WHOM the Supreme Court
has charged with contempt for COM
plicity in the lynching of a Colored
prisoner when he was in the custody
OF the court through the grant of a
stay of proceedings!
The story of the murder of Ed
Johnson is a most terrible one. The
temper of these very white men cited
to the Supreme Court is shown by
the Punishment OF the Colored law
Eyer, Noah w. Pardon, because he de-
Tended his client. Not being able to
get him, they murdered his little boy.
Yet these men, charged with compile
ity in the most audacious lynching in
our history, these men whose hands
drip with the blood of the unconvict-
ed, are given not only an audience.
but a special reception by Theodore
Roosevelt as President of the United
States.
Does the President want to be un-
derstood as prejudging the case, as
wishing to give prestige to the men
accused Of so serious an offence? Is
this in the interest of law and order?
Can such encouragement to lynch law
be safe from the President when the
country is so near the verge of an
archy?
We doubt whether the President
would be inclined or would dare TO
thus receive men under trial for such
an offence IL the victim of the lynch
ing had been white. This is not only
an indication Of contempt for Colored
men, but it is a gross reconsideration
lfoFtheir feelings ON a matter to them
as CALLING as it is inexpressibly sor-
rowful.-The Guardian, Boston, Mass.

There are very few men better
known in Chicago than Congressman
Martin B. Madden, who was born in
this city March 20. 1855; educated in
its public schools and business colleg-
es. Early in life Mr.. Madden nantes
ted a liking for politics and in 1889
he became a member of the city
council and served as a member OF
that body until 1897, he also presided
over its deliberations for two years,
and was chairman of the finance COM
mittee for five years.
In 1896, he served as chairman Of
the Republican State Convention of
Ill, and was a prominent delegate to
the Republican National conventions
Of 1896, and 1900, Notwithstanding the
fact that Mr.. Madden successfully
dabbles in politics, ne is a clean cut
business man, for he is President OF
the Western Stone Company with on
ces in the Chamber of Com. Build
ing, he is also one of the directors OF
the Metropolitan Trust and Savings
Bank, which ranks with the strongest
financial institutions in Chicago.
Two years ago Mr.. Madden, was
elected to Congress from the First
Congressional District of Illinois, anC
by possessing keen business tack, and
a well trained mind he has become a
very, useful member of that body.
When he began his labors during the
first session of the Fifty-ninth Con-
gress, he was appointed by the Speak.
er member of the Committee on Ap-
preparations, an honor never before
conferred upon a new member of Con.
gress. He offered amendments to the
urgent deficiency appropriation bill,
the army appropriation bill, the Dis
trict Of Columbia bill to regulate en-
ployment of child labor, District OF
Columbia bill to regulate salaries of

RACE PREJUDICE IN POLITICS.

Last week The Broad AK called at
tention to the plain purpose on the
part of colorphobia voters, to oppose
the Colored candidates on the Repub-
lican ticket, entirely on account Of
race prejudice. We. said then and re-
peat now, that such a policy is not on
ly rank injustice to the Colored candl-
dates and their people but is also bad
policy for the Republican Parry.
The Broad Ak has all the time
maintained that the present day love
OF the Republican Party for the Col
Ored people is all a matter of self in
terest and that all the Party does tor
Colored people, is done because it
will help Republicans to win: That
the Republican Party does not do any
more for Colored people, than the
Democratic Party would do, IL the
Colored people gave the Democratic
ticket the same support they give to
Republicans. The returns of the CON-
ing election will be watched to see IL
this contention is proved to be true.
The Democratic Party did not name
a Colored man for one of its judges;
IL 1t had done so, Democrats would
vote the ticket straight. The Repub-
licans nominated Mr.. Barnett, who Is
admitted to be one Of the ablest men
in the States Attorneys ONCE, ana
now, after he is on Jne ticket, Repub-
lican politicians and ward workers
have been heard TO say that they
would not vote for a Colored man for
Judge. In other words they are pre-
tending to be friendly to Colored peo-
pie in the convention but reserve their
race prejudice for the polls. II all the
Republican candidates are elected ex-
cept Mr.. Barnett, the Colored people
will know where to place the blame.
The Broad Az is supporting Mr..
Barnett because Of his ability, and his
general fitness for the place. His ten
years of good work in all departments
CT the States Attorneys once. his
high standing as a lawyer in the Cook
County Courts and in the Supreme
Court of this state, deserve the re-
ward Of an election to the place on
the Bench, for which he has been
named. Merit and not color should be
the test at the polls, and II this test
is fairly made. Mr.. Barnett WIN be
elected.
While The Broad Ak is always In
favor Of selecting the best men for
judges regardless Of party. Not because
of his color but because Of his fitness.
we support Mr.. Barnett and we COM
mend him 10 our friends as a man
who win make q capable, conscien-
tious and just judge. II the Repubi-
cans win do the same. they WIN do
Justice, not only to q worthy candi-
date they have named on their ticket.
but also to thousands Of colored cit
liens. without whose vote. Chicago
Republicans can never win.
