STATE AND CHURCH.

The fatherland is coming to the front in
the matter of enforcing judicial discipline
as against church duties. 1t is reported
that recently, a witness, in Berlin court,
ignored the summons in order to attend
church, and the Judge promptly imposed
a fine of SIS against him. The Judge
ruled that the interests of the state were
more important than the interests of the
church, which is a sound doctrine. The
Courts have no right to take judicial cog
nizance of special days of the various
sects and denominations, for such course
would practically mean to destroy the
utility and influence of the court by plac-
ing it in a subordinate position to the
church and the court compelled to await
the convenience of the church. 1t is re-
freshing to note that the church is get
ting liberal dose of its own politics ap-
piled upon itself and it is only natural
that religious papers should protest against
the courts action for in it they see the
wane of their power over the actions of
mankind.

and upon searching her home more than

OF course the church is not altogether
to blame for such a tragedy, put in meas
ure its plan of vicarious atonement, which
is but license for crime, has done moth
ing to prevent crime. The very fact that
a woman will enter a church, make such
a semblance of piety and then commit
crime, is an evidence that the church has
lost more of its power over the mind than
we are inclined to imagine.
