MINISTER IN POLITICS.

A recent number of the Washington
Post contains local item stating that
the question whether a clergyman may
mix in politics to the extent of making
addresses at political meetings has aris-
en- in the National Capital, owing to the
fact that a clergyman, Rev. Donald {.
Macleod. "A Presbyterian not long ago,
at Il political meeting, declared himself
I'm favor OF one of the Presidential can
didates The Post made inquiries among
the members of Rev. MacLeod's con-
gregatlon and found that they almost
generally sustained their pastor. Meth
Ter Republicans nor Democrats, the
Post asserts regarded it improper for
minister to express political views
and preferences. Here are some of the
opinions expressed:
charles l.. Dubois, an elder of the
church, declared he believed DR.. Mac
cod had made the speech as a citizen
OF the United states and not ms
representative of the First Presbyterian
church. Mr. Dubois said he approved
of Dr. MacLeod's independence.
William Henry White, a lawyer and
one of the superintendent of the sun
day school Of the First Presbyterian
| church. made the following statement:
| 81 think a minister has perfect right
to express his political views as citi-
| zen, publicly or privately, and TO give
| his reasons therefore"
Or. Macleod has long been warm
| personal friend of tho candidate for
whom he spoke. The gentleman has
been pastor Of the church about eight
years.
The same question has been agitated,
sometimes without both rhyme and
reason. we think, in our own State.
The general proposition on which all
agree that things political and ecclesi
astlcal should be kept separate. has
sometimes been twisted into a clamor
for the Acknowledgement, almost, of
American citizens because they are en-
gagged In ecclesiastical work But that
extreme Is no more in accordance with
American principles Of government
than Is the unnatural mixture of things
that belong to different spheres.
We believe. however that all over
the country, citizens are beginning TO
understand the duties and responsible
ties Of Christian citizenship. They are
beginning to realize that the functions
Of government are not Tor selfish ends;
that the government machinery is not
placed in the hands of tho strong for
the oppression Of the weak, but In order
to defend the weak against brute
force. to dispense justice, to lift men up
out OF darkness and ignorance and
bondage, to the level OF sons and
daughters Of God. But this end can be
gained only when men and women with
education, aud flled with the spirit OF
unselnshness take an interest In pub
lie affairs and use their Influence cf'
fecuyely against that of the immora
clement The services of Christian mel
and women IS an absolute necessity, 4
government is to be redeemed from tn
curse OF corruption and vice, anarchy
and revolution.

SANKEY.
st. Louis Times,

Every man or woman who was a
boy or a girl 20 or 30 years ago, ana
who as n boy Or girl, had the good
habit of attending revival meetings,
will lapse into pleasant retrospect
upon reading of the death OF Ira D.
Sankey. The great bearded, delight
ful Moody was an evangelist OF rare
gifts. His preaching and exhortations
are remembered by thousands upon
thousands who heard him in the 4gs
and sos; but 1t is Sankey who stands
clearer in the memory. His big voice,
the strong frame, his peculiar individ-
uallty In "leading." stand forth on
memorys glass In silhouette, Moody
and Sankey did "A great work. Moody s
sermons had their immediate effect
and were productive Of much good. but

ing, and they lived long after the sing

INNoCENTs SLAIN.

Booker H. Washington claims that
twenty-five negroes have been murder
ed by mobs in this country within two
months, and that against only four of
them were there any grave charge.
This tells a terrible story Of anarchy.
William Donegan who fell victim to
the fury OF the Springfield mob, was
an old man, being "a years of age, and
is described as a peaceable, law-abid-
ing citizen, innocent of all offense. And
yet he was seized by the drunken mob
and put to death in front of his own
little home.
The papers say that Donegan was a
shoemaker who hhd made and presum-
ably repaired many pairs OF shoes for
Abraham Lincoln, who many time
had stopped at Donegan's little shop
to chat With him. He was known as
Lincon's shoemaker. In tho streets OF
the city that was Lincolns home he
was barbarously murdered simply be-
cause he was the first negro on whom
the mob could lay its hands. 1t would
seem that such occurrences should
cause the people to reflect upon the
dangers ahead, unless righteousness IS
established in the land and mob rule
put down. And we believe the. indiffer-
ence of officials to public morality and
the mob spirit manifested in a por-
ton of tho press are very largely re-
sponsible for the outbreaks of lawless-
ness that too often disgrace our coun-
try.

Halls Catarrh Cure IS the only positive cure now known to the medical fra'ernity. Catarrh being constitutional disease, requires con- stiCutioual treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the foundation of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constitution and assisting nature in do- ing it's work.

 General Demand

of the WeI-Informed of tho World has always been for simple, pleasant and efficient liquid laxative remedy of known value; a laxative which physicians could sanction for family use because its com ponent parts are known to them to be wholesome and truly beneficial in effect, acceptable to the system and gentle, yet prompt, in action.
 In supplying that demand with its ex- cellent combination of Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna, the California Fig Syrup Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies on the merits of thclaxativc for it's remark able success.
 That is one of many reasons why Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna is given the preference by the Well-Iniormcd To get its beneficial effects always buy the genuinc-manuiactured by the Cali fornia Fig Syrup Co.,, only, and for sale by all leading druggists. Price fifty cents per bottle.
