federacy organized to accomplish po- litical ends, We know they are laying the chief cornerstone upon which to eventually erect q temple'to Baal in which to offer up human consciences. This is not a pen picture of d remote future, but Of conditions now before and around us. Could we hear the voices of Lincoln. Jefferson, Washing ton and a multitude of others. they would cry aloud in protest Yet how natural that the temporal idea of the millennium should result in such car nal efforts instead of relying solel,' upon Gods word and His promise of the Holy Spirit.
 WIZ the days of persecution be re- peated. and if so. how? Will our own land be fouled by that cruel monster Will the early days of New England come again? God has spoken concern ing this also. We will continue this subject tomorrow.

notwithstanding this and many other similar statements, we sadly behold great religious combinations already in existence to effect political end, and this in these United States Of America. This religious confederacy has grown % strong that its leaders appear very happy while they say, We because they forced congress to pass a religious law which was directly con- trary to the constitution of the United Statest , Nor is this all; for, seeking to bring about their unfortunate ideas of a temporal millennium, they now boldly say. Christ must come through the gateway of politics." By this, all must know this is not the Gospel of the Reformers, for the Gospel of the Reformers had nothing to do With the world and with politics. ."-D'Aubigne s Hist. Ref. Book If. Ch. l. P. 537.
 That the Gospel might shine in all its original purity and power. noble men have freely offered their lives: and that this land might be forever liber- ated from such despotism as for cen turies was a desolating scourge of the old world our brave forefathcrs poured forth their blood in the war of the Revolution. But a change has surely come: and as We see a religious con-

LAST DAY ERRORS
 THE SECOND ADVENT
May Find the World as Unprepared as 1t Was For the First.

The fallacy of the doctrine of a temporal millennium has already been shown: and as the Jews believed that Christ would come a temporal Prince and, because of this. were unprepared for his first advent. so We are in a similar danger today, who took for him to return to reign on earth during the thousand years, and may be as unpre- pared to receive him as they; and even now great efforts are being put forth in his name. which, according to Jesus own words. are opposed to him..

No Expense Will Be Spared in Per fecting Conditions for Dan Patch. Big Performance.

Here is sample of the best reading vet presented to those who are inter ested in the success of the racing al the fair next week. and particularly those who are looking forward with a hope of witnessing the fastest mile ever made in the world by harness horse. It .s q letter to J. C. Adams. president of the fair commission from the owner of Dan Patch and it talks for itseir.
 Minneapolis, oct. 90. 1907. MT. !. C. Adams.
 Phoenix. Arizona
 Dear Sir: I have sent MT Hersey our agreement so that he can make settlement with you for. the Dan Patch exhibitions. l have also written him that if there was such a thing possi- ble on earth I wanted him to beat l 55 over your track. If the track and weather are right l believe Dan will beat Il. O. course you understan nd that when we go after :55. the track must be perfect. the weather must be perfect. the runners and their drivers must be right and MT. Hersc. must be on edge. Dan is always right and if we have the other combinations, fully believe that your track will have the great honor of having a mile paced that will not be equalled or beaten in q long term. You may rest -assured that Dan and the boys will do everything in their power to give you a record that you can hang over your gate for years to come. I think the rest Dan has had will do him good and l expect him to show you such a tremendous burst of speed as We have rever seen.
 For over two years I have been a firm believer that Dan Patch has the necessary speed to pace d mile in 1852 and that he would do it if all oth- CT conditions were absolutely perfect. 1 fully realize that we may never have such conditions al any of our eXhi- bitions and | am not expecting him to do this at your meeting, but 1 am expecting him to beat l.: :5j.

addition there will be an exhibit of sheep from the farm, some of the breeds being imported from England. a few from Africa. called Tunis sheep. The farm will have a chicken exhibit. some of the varieties being imported from Holland, one called Takenfelders. a new breed in the valley.
 Altogether the agricultural depart ment will this year surpass any pre- vious year for extent, variety of pro- ducts and interesting data shown for the benefit of the rancher. gardener and poultry raiser. There will be also literature on each particular section for free distribution.

 M ". SAVAGE.
 To this is added the information that H. C. Hersey. driver of Dan Patch wired to MT Savage asking him to send the best driver available to drive a pacemaker fos the fast pacer. All other conditions being perfect it was desired to spare no expense in giving Dan chance to break his record. MT. Savage wired back that he had en- gagged Charles Dean for that office and that he will be here as fast as railroad train can bring him. Mir. Dean is one of the most notable driv- CTS in the country and drove the pace maker sor Dan Patch on the occasion of his record making at Minneapolis. when he went the mile in 1855 flat. In this connection it should be stated that the Republican was in error when it gave the record as 1855 IA. The quarter has already been trimmed. Mir Dean has been a trainer and driver of many noted horses. One horse known to many people as the most sensational track fayorite of the sea son of 1906 is ''The Broncho," pac- ing marc which Mir. Dean drove to the worlds record for mare, 2:0s 1-i. MT. Dean is fine judge of speed, top notch driver and the inference to be drawn from this information made public yesterday, is that MT. Savage and Mr. Hersey feel almost certain that new worlds record will be made next Monday and no means will be spared to consummate this lauda- be ambition.

 l have waited patiently to see these wrongs publicly discussed, and, from what I know of the two men wEo are going to speak here next Sunday, if they knew the state of affairs here they would l think, talk to the point. If either of these men, from his record in bis own city, had been confronted with these wrongs that are botherlng New Haven, he would have endoavored to right them long ago,
 l have been steady attendant at the meetings or the Associated Civic Societies and believer in the good such an association can do, but Of late 1 have become q little disgusted myself because they never seem to take up the subjects which ought to be discuss ed. These talks on other subjects arc entertaining, but when we have a real wrong here in New Haven it seems as though it ought to be taken up and de- bated fairly and squarely.

New schemes every new day. It is stated that Q company Of several not ed engineers in Boston believe they will revolutionize manufacturing by utiliz- ing the power of the tide along the Atlantic coast so as to make compress ed air. A plant has been erected at South Thomaston. Maine, to demon strate the value of the invention.
 Perhaps there may be something in this, Quite as much, probably, as there was in the scheme and plant made to demonstrate the value of the invention for drawing gold direct from the sea water. There Is power enough in the sea, as has recently been sadly realized. and If some of it can be made to work steadily it will do big things for the world. By and by when the winds and the waves are properly managed per- haps all that Man will have to do will be to sit around and boss, and can take turns at doing that. Then we should all be happy. according to the feeling of those who have 10 work pretty hard in the present incomplete condition.

and the Associated Civic Societies have secured Mayor Benjamin Dimmick, Of Scranton, Pennsylvania. and former Mayor Head, Of Nashville, Tennessee, to speak on municipal government un- der the title "The Tale of Two Cities" am very much pleased that these two meu are going to discuss municipal re- form in New Haven, and hope that all will avail themselves of the opportu- nity to 90 and hear these two most in- terestlng and practical men discuss municipal affairs. They have done much for their own cities and are in no sense theoretical reformers, but prac- tical men of affairs. It does seem a shame, however, that these two men cannot be advised of the real conditions here, for if they were so informed no doubt they would debate such condi- tions fearlossly and without favor. have lived in New Haven for a great many years and was for about fifteen years connected with the City govern ment, and have never noticed that New Haven was corrupt place and needed much of any talk upon munich pal corruption. except perhaps from the point of entertainment.

BIC GROWTH AHEAD.

Theodore P. Shonts, the new head of the transportation system in New York. is credited with saying that New York will double in population in about ten years. As 1t Is growing now at the rate of ten per cent. a year, his idea seems entirely reasonable.
 But what New York that will be! No wonder the real estate sharps are buying everything in sight, and some that is under water. And if nothing happens to check the growth of New York in the next ten years how big will New York be in twenty years? And so forth and so on, Will it by and by need the whole of Connecticut to disport itself in? New Haven is growing fast, and perhaps in time she and New York will meet and become a Consolidated city. These are great times, and as imagination has hitherto failed in dealing with them perhaps it wont do any harm to let it loose con- cerning the growth of New York and New Haven

For slower and safer Trnveling.

To Editor of the Journal and Courier;
 The recent sad accident near Water bury seems to the writer the most in- excusable in the history of modern railroading, and the result of this mad craze for speed and time saving. A special train Is ordered out after mid night on a single track road, only a few minutes before a regular train is due at the depot, to take It's chances getting on to a siding, which it might not have been able to do, If the regu- lar train had been a little before time. 1 know that locality well, with it's numerous factories on each side of the tracks. and residences to bewilder the most careful The engineer knowing the limited time running rapidly and nervously hastening on. If there had been no accident what would have been gained? The passengers on the special would have got home a few minutes sooner. not exceeding ten in all. A few expensive lessons of this kind will emphasize the necessity of putting safe ty first, and time and speed last. Tn this way the public will be protected, and the treasuries of the corporations benefited The fault of the present state of things is not entirely with the railroad. There Is a constant clamor- ing for shorter running time. Regard less of consequences, and where there is competition, as between New York and Chicago, safety is forgotten. Add to this. the increase of business and multiplication of trains involve larger risks.
 It is much better in travelling to be some longer and be landed at our des- tination, rather than in the next world before our time,

FOR 4 MORE UT1FU1 CHICAGO

FOR 4 MORE BEA UTTFUL CHICAGO
 Chicago hasn't been called a beauti- full city, except by those who have been roofing for it without regard to facts, but it is going to be made much more beautiful than it has been if bill which has been introduced in the Illinois legislature becomes law. The proposed legislation empowers the South park beard to buy riparian rights along the lake shore for drive way extending from Park row, at the southern extremity of Grand park, to the northern edge of Jackson park, the site of the Worldss fair. This, accord ing to the promulgators of the idea, will give Chicago a waterfront of a beauty unequaled even by Venice, Florence CT any of the cities of the Old World Piles will be driven into the lake and the driveway built of clay from the tunnel When it is fin-
 
 ished Chicago will have 8 water edge drive nearly fourteen miles long. The driveway is to be at least two hundred feet broad, and is to be fringed with trees and shrubbery, while between the road and the shore is to bs a basin formed into winding lagoons, with tree-dotted Islands and rustic bridges, The plan is also to connect the North and South park systems by means of boulevard link. The cost of the contemplated improvements is estimated at $2,5O0OOO.
 That locks all right Flat and un- picturesque as Chicago is, much that is beautifying can be done with her ex- tensive waterfront.

Lopez, a Portuguese collector. Much valuable geographical and ethnological work was accomplished. A careful tri- angulatlon was made Of an extensive district from Ibi, in Nigeria, to Lake Chad. The lake itself, with the great est difficulty, was traversed in several directions, so that, with the help of the French surveys, 1t is now possible to map with fair accuracy this swampy relic of what may at one time have been a great lake. Much of the Shari, which flows into the lake from the south. was traverssd. Thence, with
 many zigzags, the river Ubangi was reached, and its tributary, the Welle. It was in ti1is neighborhood that one of the leaders of the party, Captain Cos ling, succumbed Lieutenant Boyd AL eXander then endeavored to reach Lake

 to traverse the great forest. He there fore turned north, and passed some
 time in tho nttle-known region whence many of the Bahr-el- Ghazal tributaries take their rise. His steel boats had be- l come very leaky, but, adopting a na- tive method, he was able to caulk them with honey poured in hot. With great difficulty he made his way down the
 many rapids of the Yei to the Nile.
 The lower part of the Yei is navigable, and affords a good route by which to
 take supplies to stations in the Bahr- el-Ghazal. The expedition had very few difficulties with the natives, the most formidable being an encounter with a fanatical caravan of Mecca pill grims.
 Africa will soon be alive with mod ern progress. If Mr Hartman hadn't
 made up his mind to retire, and if he were younger, perhaps he could make a little something out of Africa.

SOME STEERING QUESTIONS.

The Kansas City Journal puts out a few thoughts that will strike some thoughtful people rather sharply Thus it saith; The very rich and the great corporations probably stand in no greater need of reform than you and your next door neighbor How lawless are you? Do you stop your splitting on the sidewalk? Do you run your automobile faster than the law all lows? DO you deposit trash In your alley? Do you tempt men with the price of drink to violate the Sunday closing law? Do you comply with the law in returning your personal prop erty for taxation? Or do you perjure yourself once year? And cheat the State of it's legal dues? If the street car conductor overlooks you, do you volunteer your nickel? Do you com init robbery by not paying your debts? Do you spend any time or effort to- wards securing good government? In a republic every individual holds one office-the office of elector. If you neglect the duty of that office in or der to make money how much better are you than a thieving public treas urer?
 Perhaps it wouldn't hurt any of us to take a little time off from cussing the other fellows and ask ourselves these questions.

The war department doesn't do busi- ness loosely.

The bill has never been paid, and the creditor has filed charges against the officers of the command. The latter dispute the justice of the bill ond the War department has refused to pass on the merits of the claim. The inci- dent is interesting as showing t5 what extent the War department considers itself justified in acting whHa coln- plaints of this sort are made against members of the military establishment or part of the army. It Is held that bills which are disputed must bo taken into the civil courts, and then, If q judgment is obtained, tho War depart mert will sec to it that those who are held responsible shall discharge the in- debtedness
