THE MEANING OF CHARITY.

Some confusion has been created of
late years as to the meaning of charity
when employed in religion There were
great movements during the latter part
of the nineteenth century for the
ameliOration of the condition of humani-
ty, and these movements have continu-
ed to the present time and are growing
stronger and more productive of good.
They are often called charitable, and in
a worldly sense they no doubt are the
very acme Of charity; but for the sake
of distinction it would be wiser to call
them philanthropic. The men and wo-
men who abandon worldly hopes and
ambitions to devote themselves to their
fellow-beings, and who give direction to
these movements, illustrate in no ordi-
nary sense the meaning of charity.
Their individual efforts should be distin-
Gpished from the machinery which they
guide. But Christ in His teachings,
and His apostles in their interpretations
of His words and acts, did not speak to
corporations or institutions of any kind.
Their entire ministry was devoted to
the salvation of the individual, and for
that purpose they strove to develop or
implant the great Christian virtues. of
which charity is the chief. The only
corporation in those days was the state,
and Jesus avoided that as far as posi-
BILE. His disciples followed this course
as closely as possible.
Paul in his famous apostrophe to
charity showed clearly that he regard
ed it as an individual virtue. The quail
tiles which he declared to be necessary

PARTY OF PROGRESS.

The Republican party moves with each
year and advances with every Presiden-
tai election. 1t is the party of prog
ress. Every national Republican plat
form is the immediate product of the
needs and necessities, the duties and
demands Of each Presidential wear.
Republican, principles and Republican
policy are not linked to the fortunes of
some perpetual candidate. They do not
follow the commands of any one leader
as the Denver Democratic platform will
reflect the policy, preference and utter
ances of William J. Bryan.
Whoever the candidate be finally. the
platform Of the Republican party is visi-
bly, developing and taking shape and
from the issues, utterances and national
requirements Of the day and the general
opinion of the party as whole.
The revision of the tariff will begin
when the Presidential election is over.
All Republicans are agreed to this. 1t
VIII be revision by the friends of the
protective system and not by its enc
mics, 1t will look as much to the pro-
motion Of foreign trade by reciprocity
as to the protection Of domestic indus
try. The disturbances to trade will be
as brief as possible. The benefits of
change as great as possible.
The currency will be improved bv
making it elastic where the last panic
proved it inelastic, and flexible. No
flat currency will be permitted or ac-
cepted under any pretense. Solid value
will rest behind every dollar, however
issued. The base of the currency will
be made more broad by including new
classes of bonds as basis for bank cur
rency. This will reduce the rate of in
terest paid by public and semi-public
corporations. 1t will increase the elias
ITCHY without reducing the stability of
our banking currency. Financial con-
vulsions will not again find our curren-
cy unprepared and the needs of COM
merce will find new issues accessible.
Legislation already passed upon the
railroads will be enforced. Laws en-
acted must be obeyed. But neither
veXatious burdens nor new interference
will be laid on our railroad corporations.
Instead. a period of peaceful adjust
ment will come in which the Interstate
Commerce Commission will secure JUS
! tice, protect equal private rights and

FORMER UNITED SSATEs SENATOR
George L. Wellington and Congress
mon George A. Pearre, who have been
political enemies for several years. have
buried the Ratchet. They are said to
have reached friendly understanding
as to their politics in Allegany county
IN future, the result of which will be.
it is said, that Col. Pearre will be in
control of the county and leave the city
of Cumberland to Mr.. Wellington. The
latter says he has no political aspira
tons.
Two explanations of the treaty of
peace between these very antagonistic
leaders are offered by Republicans.
One is that Wellington fears the nomi
nation of B. H. Warner, of Montgomery
county, for Congress, and he likes
Warner less than he does Pearre, and
the other is that he feels that in the
last primaries young Lloyd Lowndes
tried to defeat Wellingtons man for
County Treasurer. Under these con-
ditiOns there was nothing else to do but
make peace and an alliance with Pearre.
Wellington, it is said, called on Pearre
and held out the OLIVE branch.
