are not those who cry down every
agitation against abuses, but those
who are trying to devote life to its
higher uses. The prophets, one and
all, God be praised, have been men OF
this kind of conservatism.

TIE TRUE CONSERVATIVE.

Two words-radical and conserva-
tive-have lately come into great
prominence in the discussion of Amer
lean politics. These words are used
so widely and frequently that their
true meaning are of great Importance.
Recently, in a sermon on st. John
the Baptist, the Rev. William Austin
Smith of st. Paul's church, Milwau-
kee, eXpOunded in a masterful manner
the truly conservative forces of the
world. If this sermon, from which
follows an extract, were impressed
upon the mind and heart of every
citizen it would be very helpful to
good government:
1.-The world has always liked its
prophets after they were dead. The
prophet always lacked a cheap veneer
of tact. The most sensitive persons
in society are those with a bad con-
science. Human nature tries to wrig-
gle out from under the prophets
chastisement by turning and rending
the prophet. How easy it is to di-
vert our own and everybody's else
attention from our sin by getting up
a public debate over the method of
chastisement.
Zone striking trait of prophetism
is conservatism. That sounds like
paradox. What? The prophet a
conservative? The man like John
down in the wilderness defying civiIi-
cation, pleading for return to God?
John the Baptist was put to death be-
cause the court thought him an agita-
tor. He stirred up the people, Christ
was put TO death because they thought
him a radical He was a danger to
church and government. The diff
Guilty is the devil has taken over the
word conservative when the word be-
longs to God. Conservatism is the
policy which keeps society in a safe
and sound condition, so the diction-
aries tell US. Honesty, for example.
is a conservative force, for only the
honest state and honest society can
long remain safe and sound.
Justice, all around, even handed
justice, is a conservative force, for
only the state and society governed by
Just laws can withstand the forces of
decay.
"Love is a conservative torce-for
the ideal of service is the highest.
most health-giving ideal which can
inspire a people. A society permeated
with the ideal of service, whose young
men and old, rich and poor, have
grasped the idea of service, is builded
on the unshakable foundations of God.
"Self-control, temperance, chastity
contempt of luxury-these one ana all
are the most conservative forces of
society.
but isn't it the irony of history
that somehow again and again the
men who cared more tor money than
honor, more for special privilege than
public service, more for luxuries than
the homely puritan virtues, men who
bride and corrupt and use devious
business methods-faunt themselves
before the world as the great conser-
vatiyes and hurl the epithet radical
and agitator at the men who plead for

right or wrong. From highly
moral word, charged with tremendous
spiritual meaning it has been cor
rupted into a mere handmade of COM
mereialism.
He ought to be esteemed the con-
sentative ruler who has the prophets
deep regard for the spiritual forces
which preserve society. That ought
to be esteemed the conservative news
paper which lends its influence to
safe guarding the forces which make
a city and nation decent and high
minded. The conservative citizens

tect only political and commercial
calamity.
"Jesus Christ was pessimist when
such good business men as Pontius
PLATE, the publicans and pharisees
were blatant optimists. The prophets
were found weeping on the corners
while their fellows were dancing In
the square. They had the spiritual
perception to know that the dancing
could not last. The prophet thinks,
the prophet cares, the prophet has
convictions. Reason, love, moral

THE DEM OCRATIC STATE
CONVE TION

at Milwaukee last week was enthusiast
tic and well attended. The unanimous
endorsement Of William Jennings
Bryan; the prompt and liberal contri-
button OF campaign funds; the able,
conservative, fearless OratOry; the
plain, simple enuuciation Of recognized
Democratic doctrine; the cheerful con-
fdence of the older delegates, and the
active work Of the younger ones, in
spires much confidence in the hopes
OF SUCCESS of a united Democracy.
The district delegates, the delegates
at large, the presidential electors, and
the officers of the permanent organic
alton are good men and true demo-
Gratis. That the worthy services Of
Congressman Murphy did not secure
his selection as a delegate at large is
disappointing to the Third district.
That the Grady-Alyward contest in the
second district could not be settled
In the district caucus was unfortunate.
Many democrats who are not ashamed
that in times past they have been I'M
able to conscientiOUsly endorse ALL
that Mr.. Regain forced himself upon
the convention in order to attack Mr..
Awkward for personal reasons and
that he should mask these reasons
under his conception of Democratic
fidelity. 1t is to be hoped that all of
these petty matters, together with all
personal disappointments of worthy
aspirants for positions Of honor and
responsibility, may be buried in the
same grave that the eloquent John F.
Doherty dug for the q" Full Dinner
Pail" that Democrats to, may "call
a spade a spade" but refrain from
calling each other liars, so that the
party in Wisconsin may give such
united support to their able and eff
Cient chairman, that the triumph of
the principles OF equal rights to all
and special privileges to none may
be secured in the coming campaign.
Then indeed will the work of the best
Democratic convention held in this
state during the past quarter of a CEN
fury be not in vain.

Phoenix, March 4, 1908. To the People of Globe:
 In sending Rev. E. V. Uewell to take charge of the Southern Methodist people of Globe hope to prove blessing to all the churches there. Such Christian workers are all too few in every city Ours is not sectional church in any but the sense. There is no doubt, how ever, but that those people from tho great Sisterhood of State. in the south make the best possible nucleus for a useful church. They are more religious more friendly and moro hospitable than the average people from any other sec ton of our country, and when united in church are more successful in tho salvation of the young, especially those from our own southland than any other p .ople. I commend Brother Dewell tC you as a worthy man.
