and the increasing discomfort and
restiveness of the millions who are
touched thereby, make wise remedial
action imperative. The issue here
discussed is raised by peculiar
economic development, but the prin-
ciple underlying this development is
of the most comprehensive applica-
ton. Not only are the produce ex-
changes involved, but all exchanges,
and not only all exchanges but all
individuals. and all corporate bodies
and combinations of people and the
nation. The private economic
agencies of this day lay claim to an
arrogant and irresponsible exercise
of power which is not their of right.
The citizens living under the pro-
lection and advantages of citizen
ship, and corporate bodies existing by
virtue of the peoples franchise, are
not irresponsible and have not the
right to conduct their affairs as they
see fit, if through such conduct they
prey upon their fellow citizens and
donors"

the report approved by the National

adopted by the board. Prof. Hand
reported that indications point to a

Nineveh's Ancient Ruins Confirm Old
Testament Scriptures.

Testament Scriptures.
Not long ago tablet was unearth-
ed from the ruins of ancient Nineveh
by an exploring party in command of
Professor Herman v. Hilprecht, of
the University of Pennsylvania, and
on deciphering the strange inscription
upon the stone, it proved to be an ac-
count of the Great Deluge which oc-
CURED in the days of Noah.
Moreover, the peculiarites of the
language in which the story is writ
ten and the internal evidence furnish
ed by the stone are such that it can
not be given date later than 2,10O
years before Christ. Consequently it
is the oldest relic in existence throw
ing light upon the Biblical event
which is chronicled by the author
Of Genesis.
And what is still more engrossing
to the conservative scholarship of the
world is the fact that the account let
tered upon the stone corroborates in
every essential particular the account
given in the Old Testament Scrip
lures.
Professor Hilprecht has just pub
lished translation of the story told
by the stone; and it need hardly be
said that the book has fallen like a
bombshell in the camp of the high
er critics.
Ever since the site of ancient Nine
veh was discovered in 1849 by Lay
ard, the famous English explorer, the
buried metropolis Of the old Assyrian
empire has furnished a fertile field of
investigation. The University of
Pennsylvania has led in the research;
and many sidelights have been un-
earthed. In 1872 the whole civilized
world was startled by the story which
was brought to light in the "Layard
Deluge Tablet But it was 600 years
more recent than the date assigned by
orthodox computation to the Mosaic
account Professor Hilprechts tab
let was inscribed at least a century
before the time of Abraham, and per-
hapS much earlier.
The genuineness of the Hilprecht
tablets admits of no doubt, either as
to place or date of origin. Scholars
will recognize at once, it is said, the
value Of the evidential marks by
which the ancient character of the
stone is attested; and when the verdict
of the scientific world is rendered
with respect to the age of the inscrip-
ton, it may even antedate by 500
years the time conservatively assigned
by Professor Hilprecht.
After establishing the time and
place of discovery the author gives
what may be termed the story of the
languages In concise and convincing
terms, the reader is told how the an
cient and classic Sumerian, the oldest
known language Of the world, WAS
gradually supplanted by the Akka-
dian, a Semitic dialect, which came
in with the reign of Sargon I, about
5000 B. G. 1t is in this dialec, that
the "Hilprecht Deluge Tablet" is in
scribed, and this fact locates it abso-
lutely as being, in point of time, be-
tween 5000 B. G. and 2,100 Il. Sar.
