NO FEAR OF WAR
SAYS SEN. NELSON
CHURCHES AND SCHOOLS TO
BE OUR PROTECTION

WITHIN
Well Known Minnesota Citizen Gives
Reasons Why Foreign Countries
Will Never Attack the
United States

By Associated Pref
CHICAGO. Aug. 1.-THE churches
and the schools of the United States
were held up as 1.-THE only army and
navy that can protect us in the flu
ture" by Senator Knute Nelson of
Minnesota last night.
He delivered an address at the rally
that marked the close of the eighth
convention of the Luther league of
America at the Auditorium.
Fully 5000 persons were present.
Severed by two vast oceans from
the other great powers of the world"
he said, with our hundred millions of
people and our almost limitless re-
sources, we have no occasion to rear
any attack or invasion from abroad.
1.-THE enemy that w9ll attack us and
the danger that will threaten us,
against which we must constantly be
on our guard will come from within;
will come when we are untrue and
unfaithful to our great trust and duty;
will come when we cease to pass good
laws and when we cease to enforce the
laws without fear or favor against the
rich and poor, the high and the low;
win come when we grant immunity to
transgfessors and law violators; will
come when we allow the mammon Of
pelf and unrighteousness to rule and
dominate; will come when we stifie or
permit to be stified the conscience of
the masses of the nation.
Against this enemy and this danger
the only standing army and the only
navy that can protect us and guide
us in the future as in the past are our
schools and our churches
''These rather than brute force, will
be our solaee, our hope and our saliva

In the commerce of the country"
Mr.. Ridder is q young man of 59
years. The years of toll and brain
work have left no hard lines on his
face and his complexion is the pink of
youth. His attitude is one of cordial
ity and his only desire apparently is
to find out what he can do for one.
At IL years of age he was an errand
boy in New York. He went into the
newspaper business in 1878 and in 1890
became manager of the Stats Zeitung
which he has developed into powerful
German organ.
He is accompanied on his tour by
Mrs Ridder and two sons, his brother
in-law, Judge Edward B. Amend, of
the supreme court of New York, an
attorney and another brother-in-law
and Miss Gertrude Ridder. They have
already toured Canada, Alaska, Seat
tie and San Francisco. Their next
visit will be to the Grand Canyon.
Democratic Reception Tonight
This evening the Democratic club in
the German building will give a big
reception to Editor Ridder.
The open house function is intended
for all Democrats, but especially for
German Americans of all political
faiths. The invitations are general.
Arrangements will be made to re-
ceive hundreds of visitors who will not
only be able to shake hands with the
distinguished New York journalist but
to hear his remarks on the political
situation viewed through German
American glasses.
Mayor A. G. Harper and Chairman
Anthony Sehwamm of the Los Angeles
county committee last night hurriedly
arranged with special committees to
make the big reception at s o'clock to-
night one of the political events of the
season.
Mr.. Ridder has only short time to
stay in Los Angeles, but agreed to
meet his countrymen tonight.

LAST LONG SLEEP
COMES TOSANKEY
SINGING EVANGELIST DIES AT
BROOKLYN
Songs Written After Becoming Blind
Reach Circulation of Millions of
Copies = Remarkable
Career Recalled

BY Associated Press
NEW YORK, Aug. 14.-Ira d. Sam
key, known as an evangelist through
out the Christian world, died last night
at his home in Brooklyn, but the news
of his passing away did not become
generally known until today. Mr.. San
key was 6g years of age.
For the last Ave years he had been
blind and had suffered from g. compli-
cation of diseases brought on. by over
work. But almost to the very last ne
worked at hymn writing
His tours throughout this country
and Europe with Dwight i. Moody,
the evangelist, brought him into wide
prominence. Sankey, it might be said,
wrote gospel hymns for the world. In
China, Egypt, India, japan, in almost
every language known to men, Sankey' S
hymns were sung. He secured a large
income from his publications and leaves
considerable of an estate.
Among Mr. Sankey's most familiar
compositions are 1.-THE Ninety and
Nine and when the Mists Have
Rolled Away"
His songs are said to have had a cir
culation of more than 100000 900 copies.
He was a rapid composer and wrote
book after book of gospel hymns. Dur
ing the last five or six years of his life
he was interested in preparing and pub
fishing the story of the gospel hymns.
At the same time he saved his wonder
full voice for posterity by singing into
Photographs. The records were sent
all over the world,
Sankey first met Moody at Y. NJ. G.
A. convention in indianapolis. Moody
was so charmed with the young man
voice that he urged him to accompany
him on his evangelistic tours. Sankey
.Iaa. hot l,n mn
could not give up his position,
You must come" said Moody. II
cannot get along without YOU"
Sankey consulted his wife and they
cast their lot with Mr.. Moody. They
visited Great Britain from 1870 to 1875
and again in 1883 and made tours
through the United States.
When Mr.. Moody died Mr. Sankey
felt keenly the loss of a friend, From
that time he tried to conduct work
alone which they had hitherto shared
between them, but the task was too
great In 1909 his physical condition
compelled him to give UP most of his
evangelistie engagements. After his
retirement from public life the impress
sion became general throughout the
country that he was dead.
Mr.. Sankey lived in Brooklyn for
twenty-five years, and it was there
that most of his songs We're written.
He was a singer from boyhood ana mis-
voice attracted attention in the hamlet
of Edinburgh, Pa, where he was born
August Is, 1910.
he was a Methodist, but for the last
several years he has been Presby-
terrain. He is survived by a widow,
Annie V. Sankey his two sons, L.,
Amen Sankey and Edward Sankey, and
two grandchildren.
