ches us the lesson of moderation.
At all times and in all places every
Prince and Potentate that have
been the most successful in their
administrations have ruled with the
spirit of kindness and moderation.
History teaches US that by attempt

Iii lost his crown, and poor old
crazy George III lost his most
valuable possessions in America.
Let US remember that reformation
of the church was affected by a re-
volt against tyranny and oppression.
II required an Erasmus to lay the
egg, a Luther to hatch it, and a
Wesley to further strengthen and
develope it. Since the days OF Wes'
LEV the Methodist Episcopal church
founded on the principle OF meek
ness, simplicity and religious toler'
alton, has grown from feeble con
dition, to be a great power in the
land, and in this growth and devel
opement it has lost some OF IT.
ORIGINAL features and others have
been introduced, some Of which
have worked against its best inter
