HOW DOES THIS STRIKE YOU?
Funeral Benefit Society to Which
Answers Are Invited.
(By H. NJ. Fisk

Noticing in the Blade of July IL the
splendid proposition of Brother A. J.. Clau-
sen, of ST. Ansgar, Iowa, to conduct secu-
lar funerals any where within fifty miles,
travelling expenses only to be paid, ex-
press hope there will be many more such
offers.
| am glad the Blade proposes to keep
a directory of all SUCH 1t has been sug-
gested by some that we need not adopt
christian methods of conducting funerals
But it is the custom of our people that an
Grafton be delivered in honor of our dead
and that is right. We should employ as
able speakers as possible. Christians at
tend our funerals and by this method we
can teach the christian world that infidels
are not afraid to die. Once that Is learned
christianity has lost it's greatest weapon.
l heard the most frightful lies of the hor-
rors, agonies and regrets of the infidel on
his death bed when but a child. I am bald
headed now ON account of those christian
lies.
Would 1t not be advisable TO organize
funeral society? 1t can be a society
within a society. II necessary let each
member pay one dollar to go into the fund
to be paid to the administrator OF deceased
members at his or her death. Assess
ments can be made from time. to time as
needed to keep up this funeral fund. Some
may not feel like paying one dollar every
time there is a death in the society. II
not let them pay any sum they wish, If 1t
is only 10 cents, but it must be fixed
sum and assessable as deaths occur. Each
beneficiary can draw prorata according
to the amount he pays in.
l make these rough suggestions hoping
that some one will take the matter up and
put 1t in more tangible form.
know that something can be done on
this line to enable us to take the conduct
Of our funerals out of the hands of the

plished, do more good for our cause than
any thing we can possibly do for the money
it will cost.

BLUE GRASS BLADE

TO announce a radical change now
would mean the charge of hypocrisy; OF
double dealing; of believing one set OF
principles and preaching another; bring
ing about two parties. schism; a scandal
and the execrations of his old associates;
the loss of caste and respect and salary
Do we not know that many preachers
are preaching one set of dogmas and pri.
vately holding another set of enlightened
views and opinions and beliefs?
During the reign of Charles the First
and James the Second many Established
Church divnes were in full sympathy with
the Reformation, but for private reasons
preached on and saved their benefces
Take the instance of Dean Swift preaching
orthodox, and writing in his diary for
posterity heteradox and radical free thought
During the French Revolution there
were thousands of priests and preachers
who expressed their secret, private and
honest beliefs when the danger was passed.
The whole progress Of the theory Of
Evolution has been announced within the
past forty years, since the text books
Gladstone used. Is it possible that Nc
Garvey hasn't bought the new ones-those
taught in every enlightened institution of
learning?
McGarvey was fifty years old when this
great doctrine was announced, and it is
hardly possible that he could be misin-
formed, as was Gladstone, because McGar-
vey all this time has been a teacher, and
hence, / presume, a student, while Glad
stone was busy politician and statesman
the Prime Minister of England-with
weighty questions pressing on all sides for
solution.
The orthodox merely made an inexcusa-
BILE blunder to pit such a man against
Thos. H. Huxley to debate scientific the
cries and scientific facts.
Will the biographer of McGarvey find
among his remains" a word or a line or
treatise to show that even a faint CLEAN
of the light of science and truth ever en-
tered his narrow orthodox Uranium?
And that he may be cleared of the charge
of ignorance and find a posthumous
- p?
But again and finally to the sermon

Of God is Love- of the Mountain Evan
gelist, Geo. o. Barnes, was to him "vagar-

sway in Kentucky, McGarvey said:

true things; but his true things are not

selves. When they die they ole all over.
OF the making of new religions however,
there is no end III sight. No one would
recognize the religion of A Campbell and
his early imitators in what one gets today,
from their pulpits, except in few ind1vld-
ual cases. What caused the evolution?
Bob Ingersoll and higher criticism did it.
Some very bad ones and degrading ones
however have swayed multitudes OF the
weak and unfit-there's always a survival
of the fittest-in the wide field OF human
credulity and tainted men to lead them,
such as Christian Science, Holiness, Sane
fed Saints and kindred vagaries and super
stitons.
The world will never see again such
letter" Christians have such phenomenal
success But it's day is over. 1t takes ITS
place fat and sleek, placidly, self-satisfied,
as only one more 'sect" of Independent
commentators with one central idea

the world and the overthrow of the Devil
and all his works.
Bob Ingersoll drove them to shelter with
their erstwhile enemies for common de-
Tense He attacked their Jehovah.
In q Illuminating mood could not but give
my fancy and imagination full rein. I'm
nodding while pretending 10 listen to such
dry subject to me, as Elder McGarvey
gave the same old version, announced no
new or novel version, made no new depart
ure; but preached the sermon without en-
ergy, without eloquence, with no display
of enthusasm-a cold, bloOdless, matter-or-
fact, settled manner as he preached it so
or 60 or 70 years ago. | say my fancy
roamed in sizing up this old teacher and
preacher, and this vagrant thought came

logical phenomena, in his case, that he
might go on preaching without change

as it were?
l do not say that there is any foundation
in fact for this cohceit, but isn't it possible
if not at all probable?
Certainly this old student and thinker and
debater knows what the intellectual and
scientific world knows; had to keep up with
the strides of observation and experiment;
of the philosophy of our day; of the theories
of the most scientific and advanced thinkers
and doors of our day in England, France
and Germany in order to combat them.
He is not like Glaudstone when he undertook
to debate with Thos. H. Huxley and fell

books in forty years; or like Judge Jere

charge is made that its action is dis

The story Is very simple one, ac-
cording to the records OF the case in
the Offices OF the commission. The
members OF that body decline to discuss
the matter for publication, declaring
that the whole proceedings have been

the case fully set out all the points In
