ENr1nELY roo rAn11L1An.

The. Rev. DIR. Spooner preached re.
markablc sermon in the Sixth Presby-
terian Church. Washington, Sunday
night, about what Christ would do if
He should visit Washington. The
preacher expressed serious doubts that
He would be welcomed with anything
like the ardor which will be displayed
when hunter President returns from
his animal slaughter in the junglcs
of Africa" and much more Of the same
trifling and irreverent sort Of stuff
what would happen to Him IL He
should venture into the House gallery.
excise board while tbs Issuing licenses
for places of temptation. So far as
the report OF the sermon shows the
preacher did not suggest anything that
Christ might say if He should get into
the pulpit Of the Sixth Church: but we
imagine it would be something like
this: Keep thy foot when thou goest
TO the house of God, and be more ready
to hear than to give the sacrifice OF
fools for they consider not that they
do evil"
There isa great deal Of talk about
the growing spirit of irreverence in
this age. This is not TO be wondered al
greatly when SO many Of those who
are appointed to minister in spiritual
things get down to the level OF the
street in preaching about the dolectablc
mountains. If Christ had been, at the
sixth Presbyterian Church in Wash
ngton Sunday night. we do not be-
lieve that He would have stayed tc

than 1000 years. The professor made

them cooked in the most approved

The cold storage men have been
quick to see their advantage. If, they
argue, meat is good at 1000 years, why
is 1t not good at two months? II the
glaciers of the Alps protect meat for
twenty centuries, why may not their
improved plants keep meat for one
year? Overlooking the trining fact
that their rcfrigerating plants have a
temperature OF about 80 degrees, while
the glacier had q steady temperature Of
40 below zero, they argue their case
with all the zeal of missionaries.
The point is probably a good one,
with the exception noted, but 1t will

The cold storage mon need no
argue. Their only safe policy is Il
keep the ago Of their meat secret
to frcshcn 1t UP when 1t comes tc
market and not to bring out any
legend about o,0oo-year old meat, to
prove that their meat should be eaten

Ito enlarge his own virtues or to

TIE GOVERNMENT. NOT THE
PEOPLE.
An esteemed correspondent writes
from Alexandria, Louisiana, that we
are altogether wrong in saying that
Mr.. Bryan has "naggcd the Country"
and to show that we were right In
saying so, he asserts that ''the nag
ging' that Colonel Bryan has done
has resulted In such an cutlery from
the country that even the Republicans
have been forced to adopt few
things at least that he ragged about"
| Having established. outtof the mouth
OF this witness, the fact that Bryan
has actually nagged the country, we
turn with satisfaction to the further
statement OF our correspondent that
the Republican party has never done
anything "in the interest Of the real
struggling mass of its own volition,'
and are quite ready to accept his view
that the Republican party "was born
in hell after having been conceived In
iniquity." Henry W,atterson has FREE
quently characterized some OF the most
eminent men In that party as hell
ions" and lie ought to know. as he has
lived in Kentucky nearly all his ma
5ture life
But what's the use? Our CORE
spondent says that ito be ultimately
happy and prosperous the virglnians
as well as others must have co-opera-
tive, Government-ow electric force,
heat light and motive power" To
this complexion must Organism come
at last-not tho Jetfersonian idea that
the least government is the best gov
eminent, but the Bryan idea, the So
cialistic idea. that the Individual is
nothing, the state everything.

POCAHONTAS' KIN.

The Chicago Tribune takes per-

the Indian Princess Pocahontas in the

Tribune Of the''. fndia,n's charms or
services whicr. as matter of fact,
I probably knows nothing about Poca-
hontas except what appears in its old
encyclopa edia; nor is it due to any
especial love of the redmanin general.
The real reason for the Tribune's re-
joicing is that so many descendants
OF Pocahontas live in Chicago. that
y Pocahontas herself might be termed
a schicagoan.
There are in the Windy City, accord
ing to the Tribune. several thousand

nected with the Captain rescued by
the Princess: Then there are some
hundreds OF Rofcs, Rolls, Rolffs, Rof-
