IT'D EsURGAM is the diapason of all
INK Christian song, the word Oh
II " faith and promise inscribed on
the haart-tablet of every follower Of
Jesus. 1t is confident answer to that
question older than the pyramids, IN
q man die, shall he live AGAIN."
When the most eloquent divine Of
France stood before the bier of Louis
XIV. to pronounce an eulogy upon that
great ruler, he remained silent for
some time overcome by hts emotions
Finally, recovering himself in part. he
said In a voice half-choked with sobsa
There Is nothing great but death"
This was the utterance of a mar con-
Quered of grief at the death of a loved
master 1t was but the repetition of
a wall that has been heard throughout
all the ages in every nation The di-
vine in King Louis panegyrist was
swallowed UP Of the thought that his
royal master, greatest among men. had
been defeated by the arch-king of ter
rors, Death
Yet the preacher was wrong and al
together wrong There is that far
greater than death, and 1t is immortal
ity, Death is great in that 1t overcomes
all living things-plants, birds beasts
and man. Yet Death ends with life on
earth, for John the Divine, in his mag
nifcent description Of the new heaven
has declared And there shall be no
more death"
Death does not end life II does but
transform 1t into life that Is amending.
1t is brrS mode Of changing mortality
into Immortality. II is as the sundered
cocoon which release@thecreature; once
a dull chrysalis. now a gloriously tinted
butterfly, that may roam among the In
censed flowers of many gorgeous hues
and sip grateful nectar from their
yielding cups
This IL the lesson Of Easter. After
the 30 days of fasting, penanee and
prayer, begun when winter lies a dy-
ing and ending after the warming sun
has kissed into new life grasses and
trees and flowing plants, this resurrec-
ton day dawns IN eommemoration OF
that long ago day when the man Jesus
left me tomb Of the Arimathean. to es-
tabiish the cOnsolin9 truth that He who
gave life can take IT and restore 1t
again.
True, He had brought from the dead
the son of the widow of Main. the
daughter OF Jairus and Lazarus whom
The Nevada County picayune. (Prescott, Ark.) 190?-current, 1906-03-24

He loved Yet there was needful to
the completeness of His mission that
He Himself die as common humanity
dies and return Himself from the dead,
in order to afford unbreakable evidence
of His power over death and the grave.
1t was this first Easter day evidence
hat caused Paul in his eloquent essay
upon immortality to write defantly,
20 death! where is thy sting? o grave!
where is thy victOry?" and then to add
gratefully and reverently, Thanks be
INTO God, which giveth US the victory,
through our Lord, Jesus Christ"
It is meet and right, then, that East
day shall be hailed with joy by all
Christian peoples; that the people shall
Il. on their gayest apparel; that flow
rs shall bedecl, the chancels of the
hurches, ard hat the grand organs
hal. peal forth triumphant song
Christ has risen" and there is His
~romise that all they which are asleep
in Him shall arise from the dead to
meet Him in glory that shall endure
forever and forever.
The mystery of death is unsolvable;
hat greater mystery of resurrection
from the dead is still farther from
mans knowledge But unfathOmable
things sometimes are the sweetest and
most comfortable blessings men enjoy
IN this life. Faith demands no proof
further than is contained in His words,
IN my Fathers house are many man
sons; go to prepare place for you"
THAT where I am, there you may be
also"
Such faith this is that filled the spirit
Of Job when he said II know that my
Redeemer liveth, and that He shall
stand at the latter day upon the earth. ="
Or, as Paul when he wrote: For we
know that if this earthly house of our
tabernacle were dissolved, we have a
building Of God. a house not made with
hands. eternal in the heavens"
First among the great festival-holy
days OF the church, it Is also one of
the Oldest. 1t is preeminent. because
it is the keystone of the arch of Chris
tianity. Without it-Resurrection day
the gospels are a lie, the writing OF
Paul lie and the life and death of
Christ a mOckery St Paul boldly de-
cleares that preaching is vain and
teaching is vain except It be based up
on Christ's death and resurrection from

that he the choice Of William r. Hearst
There was no opposition to him. Other candi-
dates. learning that Mr. Hearst wanted Conners
stepped side. and his election was made
unanimous Conners went TO Mr.. Hearst's house
and received congratulations from the candidate
personally
The Republicans were jubilant last night over
the election OF Conners. They welcome him as
an object lesson. All around the state the Hearst
men have yoSed UP with the Anti-Saloon League
candidates in effort 20 break into the Re-
publican stronghods and pick up votes for
Hearst. Now that the Hearst campaign is TO bo
run by the champion of the saloon interests Of
Buffalo. man who built up large fortune by
running saloons and compelling his employees on

checks good only at the Conners chain Of

funds the Hearst campaign managers are going
