attempt this work in the way of psychological knowledge Dr Wor cester has this advantage, having been an instructor in the subject and having also the benefit of European study The subject of psychology Is pursued in very different way from the methods of twenty-five years ago It Is more thoroughly scientific In character There may be ministers who are enthusiastic enough, having the best of intentions, but who never really studied psychology under the modern method. A work of such incalculable benefit to those who suffer and come for relief cannot in the nature of things be accomplished by any who may be lacking in equipment. II is noteworthy that few theological sem lnaries are endeavoring to meet this need by establishing chairs of psycho- religious therapy
 In some places already some phyN- clans arc antagonIzing the movement on the ground that clergymen are usurping their functions Such physi- clans cannot be real physicians, who regard the relief of suffering as some 1 thing more to be desired than the qucs- tion of exclusive methods Happily thus far physicians worthy of the name are showing a willingness to bring their technical knowledge to the service of the church in a joint effort 10 relieve suffering When any are to be found who can be helped by these agencies it Is no time to debate those features of the movement that have nc particular influence in actually produc Ing results

INVASION NOT LIKELY.

The position taken by Field Marshal Lord Roberts in his recent speech in the House of Lords of England Is prov ing to be a puzzle to many careful students of events and their slgnif- canoe Does Lord Roberts speak seri- ously? Does he really believe that Germany is likely to invade England? Of course Lord Roberts is a military character and interprets affairs from the point of view of war in which he has had a large experience. He may therefore fail to see other forces In life that are powerful and do not make for war He Is therefore not likely 10 es- tlmate correctly the value of these
 Some observers are inclined to re- gard Lord Roberts fear as a delusion He has been so accustomed to war and to thinking war that he feels that a nation is not performing its proper function unless 1t Is at some time at war with some other nation Lord Rob- erts sees Germany landing l50,OOO sol dicrs on English soil and in order to repel the invaders he wants nearly sev- en times as many men, or l,00OO00 EW- dcntly Lord Roberts means 10 repel the coming Germans in such q thorough manner that the attempt will never be made again At the same time he is presenting a remarkable testimony to the efficiency of the German force of l5o.oOO men.
 However may 1t not he possible that Lord Roberts is creating a little diver .sion of interest in possible war In or der to cover certain internal conditions that arc just now becoming trouble some to English statesmen. II is a transitional period in English history when new questions are appearing to 1 tax the wisdom Of English law makers, questions for which there are no pre- cedents for guidance It is easier to talk war as the past Is full of prece- dents for this. II may be that an en- larged army under the supposltlon l that Germany Is preparing to invade England, may absorb the greater part of the unemployed, but fl will not solve the problem simply to tax indus try all the more, but will aggravatc
 the whole situation
 Lord Roberts may not have observed that the mass of the people of both England and Germany are not In any
 mood to approve war, They are being
 educated away from 1t. To stir mp en- thuslasm in this direction is becoming
 increasingly difficult Both bushes, men and industrial workers are set
 ting down to peaceahIe pursuits and ar international comity of good will and
 do not care to be disturbed with De.
 riodcal regularity with this harplng on
 war when the marked tendency of the
 present is to avoid 1t by all means
 Furthermore both the labor party o
 England and the socialists of Germany
 and England are opposed to war and
 would exert their influence against
 such an unhappy conflict that the brair

THE TENDENCY TOWARD UNITY.

The Thanksgiving sermon preached Tuesday night by Rev. Frank R Luckey, pastor of the Humphrey Street Congregational church, on "A Workable Undenominationa Christ ianity,' presents crisis that is real in church life and work. The time has passed for sectarian emphasis and re- ligious exclusiveness The tendency toward unity of spirit and cooperation on platform of faith in which all de- nominations may join, embracing only the essentials of practice and vital elements of faith, Is so marked to-day that to withstand it is to oppose the actual progress of moral and religious forces that are inevitably making themselves felt.
 To cali attention in this Thanksgiv ing season to this new divine dispos- ition in life to bring all Christian bod ies into the "unity of the spirit Is opportune, There Is reason to be thankful that much progress has been made the past year. Several states where there has been organized a state federation of churches, have held conferences in which a larger emphasis than ever has been put on this central thought of Mir. Luckey's sermon, and gratifying progress was reported in the work of bringing re- ligious bodies in a state of mind in which they can see the larger oppor- tunitles before them for moral and spiritual power which cannot possibly | be put forth under the older denomin- ational isolation, Noltaire once said of law that it was a conservator of ancient opinions With some modl- fication possibly the same might be l said of church bodies. There is the ! future as well as the past to consider, and the future Is always full of rich promise This cannot be unlocked with "the past's bood-rusted key. There are the present changes in spir- it and method to recognize; new social forces to capture and employ in the higher attainments of human life, and this cannot be done by simply and contentedly reiterating the past con clusions regarding religious faith and work. New occasions teach new du- ties time makes ancient good un- couth,"

Waterbury evening Democrat. [volume] (Waterbury [Connecticut]) 1903-1917, 1908-03-03

President Roosevelt's intense feel
ing against Mr. Hearst dates back to
the time when, as governor of New
York, Mr. Roosevelt felt constrained
to refuse a pardon to woman who
had been sentenced to death for a
most revolving murder. Numerous
frenzied appeals for pardon had been
forwarded to Governor Roosevelt and
he had appointed commission OF
eminent jurists to investigate the
case and advise him. The commission
advised that a pardon would be a
defeat of justice and he abided by its
decision. The Hearst newspapers
were leading the propaganda for a
pardon and when the governor refus-
ed they printed lurid editorials in
which they said. among other things,
that it would be their unchanging
purpose to prevent Mr. Roosevelt's
wife and children from ever forget
ting that their husband and father
was a murderer of women" Mr.
Roosevelt never forgave the reference
TO his wife and family.

There is a peculiar situation in the
committee on military affairs.
When the final vote on Brownsville
was taken only two members had the
courage to vote for resolution de-
claring that it was their conviction
that the negro soldiers of the 25th
infantry did not shoot up the town
of Brownsville. These were Foraker
and Buckley. Now, however, some
of the republicans who voted as they
thought, saying that the evidence
showed that the negroes did the
shooting. are hearing from the negro
voters in their states and they are
becoming scared. One of them, Sem
ator Warner of Missouri, who prac-
tically conducted the prosecution and
examined the negro witnesses, as well
as the white ones, has decided to in
troduce a bill providing that the pre-
sident may restore to the army and
give back pay to any negro soldier
who can prove his entire innocence of
having had a part in the assault. to
the satisfaction Of the war depart
ment. This is, of course. far bet
ter measure than the Foraker bill
which provides that the president
must restore all the discharged ne
groes. innocent and guilty alike, but
when Mr. Foraker knows perfectly
well that his bill will never pass, will
never even be reported from the COM
mittee. and he Is merely seeking tc
vent his spleen against Roosevelt and
Taft. Incidentally. the fact that the
republican state convention Of Mis-.
souri,. which instructed its delegates
to the convention may have also beer
the result Of Mr. Warmers anxiety.

Says Shanghai Judge Is Innocent OF
Charges Made Against Him.

Charges MADE Against him.
Washington, March g. President
Roosevelt's defense of Lebbeus K. Will
fey, based on an analytical review by
Secretary Root of the charges against
him, was made public here. 1t is in the
shape of letter to Secretary Root
The charges We're preferred by Lorrih
Andrews and repeated by him before
the house committee on the judiciary
as the basis of impeachment proceed
ings. They relate to Judge Wilhey's
administration of the United States
court for China at Shanghai.
Secretary Root showed that because
of the lax American administration OF
justice in the foreign quarter of Shang-
hal, Judge Wiley was sent there fol
the express purpose of reversing the
conditions. President Roosevelt, after
saying that it appears that Congress
man Waldo of New York stands spon'
sor for the charges, proceeds:
Il cordially concur in your finding
that Judge Wiley is not only innocent
but is attacked solely because of the
fearlessness and integrity with which
he has stamped out vice and crime in
Shanghai"
