the mightiest laws of the material
world, He was able likewise to set
aside the law given by Moses and in
it's place to substitute His grace and
truth.
This is the stupendous truth that
has been overlooked by the scientists
the HuXleys, the Darwins and Spen-
GERS. They think natures laws are
supreme because of their uniformity.
force and fiXity, and so recognize no
God as superior to these laws. These
scientists have faith, every scientist
has faith, in the regularity, uniform
ity and power of laws Without in
variableness in law there could be no
science, no sane deductions of reason
from given facts, no safe conclusions
of judgment and effects from any rec
ognized causes, and we should find
ourselves in a world of chance. If
fire would sometimes burn and some
times would not burn there could be
no science of insurance, God is too
wise to have any laws but those which
are wise, fixed and merciful Hence
He does not undo these laws nor re-
lieve the violator from the conse
quences.
Hume based his infidel argument
on this firm and invariable" opera
ton of natures laws, disregardins
the fact that Christ disputed the SUI
premacy of these laws and proved
his truth by openly abrogating them
in healing lepers, making wine out of
water and raising the dead. And as
He thus demonstrated His power over
these natural laws He also asserted
and proved His purpose and His pow
er to displace and annul the law of
Moses with the grace and truth that
now afford the sinner his salvation
and his hope. This grace is the gift
of God through His divine Son.
The law said do this and live, grace
says live and do this. Sacrifices and
were of the law, in the
grace and truth of Christ there is one
and but one sacrificial offering-and
that is Christ.
Errors have been made, baptism
has been thought to be regeneration
by water, while it is only shadow or
type; and even the monstrous error
is promulgated that the bread and
wine are the real, veritable, actual
flesh and blood of Christ
God grant that we may accept and
apply the grace and truth of Christ,
that we may clearly see that we are
not required to shed floods of tears
and do endless deeds of penance to
secure the gift of eternal life, but
simply to trust in that one who in the
infinite goodness and divine love of
the Father has been appointed to dis
place the law of Moses with the
grace and truth of Jesus Christ.

DAWSON TAX LAWS.

Charleston Gazette.
We again challenge big, little
high, low, Jack and the game to
to contradict the statement that
there has been no comprehensive
development of territory in this
state since the Dawson Tax Laws
cast their black shadows across the
commonwealth. Capital has been
holding back ever since the fall of
1904 WhyP Simply because the
laws are insinoere and uncertain.
There is too much one man power.
No one knows what is coming next,
nor how the existing statutes will
be construed and used. The state
is up against political machine
with almost unlimited power.

The grim monster death, the pow
erful reaper, has entered our fold and
claimed as victim, a true and faith
full brother, James o. Smith, who
departed this life at Charleston, w.
Virginia, August 2, 1908, and buried
in Leon. w. Va. by the side of his two
children, in his 34th year. He was a
true Christian member and devoted
husband and father. In his life we
saw naught but bright hopes and
flattering prospects. But alas, his
work is finished. The sudden end of
a life SO full of hope, so active, re-
minds us of a beautiful tender flower,
budded on earth to bloom in heaven.
As brothers and personal friends we
wish to'submit the following:
BE 1T resolved, that In the death of

place will be hard to fill.
Resolved, That while we deeply
deplore the departure of our beloved
brother, we can but bow meekly in
humble submission to the will of him
who doeth all things we'll, realizing
that our earthly loss is his eternal
gain.

Chairman Discusses
New Law
IN REGARD TO REGISTRARS
AND REGISTRATION
which Should be Read by Every
Voter.

In discussing the Registration
Law with A. 3 Kenney, at the
Democratic State Headquarters,
Mr.. Kenney said: / deem 1t
important that the press of the
state call attention to this law.
Without going into details or
making comment on its many i'm.
perfeotions, I would impress upon
all voters the duty of complying
with this statute.
The county court ehall appoint,
not later than tho fret day of Sep.
tember registrar for each voting
precinct.
The law prescribes that he shall
register .oitizens who are entitled
to vote" There is some question
as to whether the voter must make
personal application to be; regis
tered, or if friend can do 80 for
him-I take 1t that any fair minded
man who has taken an oath to
register those who are entitled to
vote would do 80, even if the legal
voter was absent and did not APP.

however, it would be we'll for all

tions.
The law does not require the
registrar to make public his liat
of votes until fifteen days before
the election, neither does it prevent
him from permitting an inspection
of his books. The registrar who
desires to be just, 1t seems to me,
would not hesitate to allow suoh
inspection.
Section 8 provides that ANY
registrar who shall wilfully or ma.
lioiously register the name of any
person not a qualified voter of said
precinct or reject from registration
the name of any qualified voter
of the precinct contrary to the
provisions of this act, shall sbe
