philanthropist, learned lawyer,
a brilliant orator and in fact a
great man. Whether Jefferson,
Lincoln, Paine and 1ngersoll were
right or wrong in their religious
views, they were great men, use
full men, and one writes himself
an ass to attempt detraction of
them because, forsooth, he does
not apr rove their religion or
want of it. Many of the greatest
men of New England, who have
their names inscribed high up on
the nations roll of honor, were
Unitarians. Mr.. Taft's private
opinion OF the inscrutible mys
teries will not be an element in
determining whether his admins
tration is benehcient or otherwise.
The most casual observation of
our neighbors will disclose the
fact that mans professed relig-
ious faith gives not the slightest
clue to his value as friend or
citizen. Honor and fame from
no condition rise; act we'll your
part, there all the honor lies"
Criticism of mans mental atti-
tude toward the unsolved myster-
les, which of necessity are mat
ter of concern principally to him
self and his Maker. should be
frowned upon as intolerant imper-
tinence and mischevious bigotry.
Mr.. Tatt's attitude toward the
numerous issues, is of no conse-
quence to the people. The ques-
tion whether he will be a wise,
honest and efficient public ser

With the republicans electing
only three out of eighteen sena-

is thrown out they will
have elected two out of eighteen,
their chances for controlling the
senate are very remote for at

elected hold four years. In or

sixteen out of seventeen, some

County Democratic Club and the
same has been incorporated under
the laws of the state. This makes
permanent an organization which
will without question be a power
for the upbuilding of the demo-

organization was the outcome of
the splendid work done by the

RANDOM REMARKS.
BY GEO. o. BLAKE.

less Sdpl6Ht Opinions On SN@'N
thing in general has renewed a
discussion which might well have
been allowed to die out for want
of notice. This last outbreak of
verbosity was melted by the criti-
cisms of few obscure and Who'll
ly unimportant people on the al
legged religious faith of the presi-
dent elect. Mr.. TAFT is accused
of being a Unitarian. 1t one
should Judge by what is said by
these narrow minded religious
zealots, he would conclude that
adherence to that faith is a high
crime and misdemeanor. So far
as | am able to understand that
cult, it appears to be very mild
and innocuous form of Christian
ity. | once read OF. a man who
gave as a reason for adherence to
a certain ecclesiastical body the
assertion that it did not interfere
with his politics or religion. The
writer will certainly not be &C.
cused of admiration for Mr.. Taft
and he is quite as innocent of pre-
dilection toward the particular
brand of religion professed by
that gentleman, but he recognizes
the right of every man to erect
his private altar to any god he
deems it wise to propitiate, with
out the meddlesome interference
of anybody else, no better quail
fed than himself to judge of the
propriety or efficacy of such
proceeding. The direct evils
which have visited humanity
since the fall of the Roman en-
pire have been the results of re-
ligious intolerance.
Commenting on the president 5
letter, Rev. DIR. Utter, a Unitarian
clergyman of Denver. said that
six presidents. who preceded Mr..
Taft, were Unitarians and he
named John Adams. Thomas JEFF
ferson. John Quincy Adams. Mil
lard Fillmore. Abraham Lincoln
and James A. Garfield. As to
two OF these he is probably mis-
taken Thomas Jefferson was
doubtless a deist and Abraham
Lincoln was nearer that than any
thing else. DR. Utter very truly
and pertinently said that not
withs,anding the oft repeated as
sertion TO the contrary. this IS not
a Christian nation. Our consti-
tuition recognizes no religion and
the very first amendment to- it
prohibits the enactment Of laws
establishing any religion or pre-
venting the free exercise of any.
The nation is no more Christian
than it is Mohammedan. Confu-
clan or Jewish. 1t is true that a
large number of its citizens give
a more or less candid assent to
the numerous cults which collec-
lively comprise what is loosely
and indefinitely termed Christi
anity, but that fact doesn't alter
the case. One of the most potent
factors in securing our independ-
ence as nation was a man who
has been denied his proper place
in the history of our country be-
cause of his views on these cults.
Intolerance and bigotry have
done everything possible to blot
out the name of Thomas Paine.

tone Of the opening stock market was

firm, but there was little effort made
to advance prices. Republic Steel pre-
ferred yielded a point.
2 p. m.-Speculation was practically
at a standstill after 1 o'clock, but the
firmness of the market was indicated
by a slightly higher level, st. Paul,
Union Pacific, Reading, United States
Steel and other leaders ruling slightly
above last weeks closing prices.

p. m.-The market closed steady
and extremely dull. American Wooden

STEEL CONDITIONS BRIGHTER.

PITTSBURG, June 1~5.-Conditions in
the steel market look brighter thai
has been the case for some time. The
half-hearted cut in rates by the Steel
Corporation cast a gloom over Pitts
burg for a few days, but it was dis
PEELED when the sheet and tin plate
manufacturers got together and an
%nounced they would not cut prices,
that business was picking up. and it
would be but a reflection on business
conditions to cut rates at this time.
The tin people were able to furnish
the data, too; were able to show that
the big fruit crops of the West and
South would make a call for millions
of cans and that business was bound
to be better.
