creature. The power Of the risen Christ
will rule the world.
Christ's resurrection is the germ Of our
endless life, prophetic OF the Christian
resurrection, when our Lord shall appear.
The power that broke the bonds Of death
on Easter morn is the promised force
by which we, too, shall conquer death.
Chrfst's presence with us has given us
a power by which we can rise above
the despair, difficulties and discourage
ment Of the present age. The defeats OF
life have been changed into victory for
us by the resurrection Of our Lord. Let
us proclaim our gratitude to God this
morning. for the triumph that His resur-
rection has brought to us. The risen
Christ has secured for us victory Of
life over death, OF regeneration over de-
generation, of construction over destruc-
ton. of conformation over reformation.

TEXT.
He is not here; for He
has risen, as He said
Matt, 20 IS.


HE resurrection of Jesus is the
citadel Of Christianity. The
empty tomb testifies to the
truth Of Christs teachings.
The Founder Of our faith
staked His mission. Messiahship and
message upon his resurrection. With
prophetic vision He pointed to His tri-
umph over death as proof of His diety.
The resurrection is the epitome Of His
gospel. The fundamental fact OF the
Christian religion Is the triumphal res
direction Of our Lord and Savior. The
basic principle Of the apostles teaching
was HE is risen" The gospel they
preached lifted the veil Of nature AMI
promised future life to all that believed
in Christ as a risen Savior. AS a result
we have the church that testifies today
by it's presence and power in the world
to the resurrection of Christ. It's obsery-
ance of the first day as the Lords day
is a weekly presentation Of evidence of
the conquest Of Christ over death. The
New Testament Is a by-product of the
resurrection Of our Lord. The power OF
the Christian religion manifested in the
Lords word. the Lords day and the
Lords people is the most potent force in
the worlds history. Transforming the
character Of men and Of nations by its
message Of cheer. courage and comfort
It is the system that fits into mans
needs. whose dynamic moral power is
causing a constant continuous uplift OF
humanity. The church with its story of
q risen Christ satisfies the religious cray
ing of the SOUL
The first gospel Of Easter was a mes
sage to the discouraged disciples and
Peter. It was converted sinner who
was intrusted with the message of par
don to Peter. who had denied his Lord
and for whom Christ had prayed that,
when he was converted to strengthen the
brethren. This morning Christ sends TO
you that have failed an Easter message,
the risen Christ receiveth sinful men.
He calls US to repent this morning enter
his service and carry the gospel of the
resurrection to the lost.
The greatest need today for the individ-
ual and society Is peace. Jesus standing
in the midst Of his fearful disciples said:
Peace be unto YOU" Let us recognize
Christ's presence with US amidst the

delivered at Weiser. stated that wine
and other liquors had been sergel
at a banquet given by the Idaho rep
resentatives to the Seattle Exposl-
ton to the Seattle exposition on the
occasion when the governor and his
staff stopped at Portland en- route
to the fair at Seattle to attend the
exercises incident to Idaho day. There
are good many people who would
not find fault had wine actually been
served. That is a common adiun-
of all official banquets. However, on
the occasion in question, not a drop
of spurious liquor was served, ac-
cording to the afidivits of such rep
utable persons as Mrs. J. A. Bloom
quist. Mrs. Mary E. Stedman and
Clarence c. Dietrich of Boise, who
were present at the banquet.
The object of Mr.. Moore's charge
is to show that Governor Brady Is
not entirely sincere in his stand OF
the lequor question. The falsity Of
fairness prevades the average voter
and irrespective of whether or no
they subscribe to the Governor
views on the liquor question, the!
will not subscribe to the theor.

AGAINST men for public Office is a
crime against society and the state
Many good men will not run for pub
lie office because of the abuse and
Islander that usually follows. And It
is often the case, that men deepest
in mud singing have characters so
black that no words can do them JUS
tice.
We believe the men represented
on both tickets are good and cape
bic men. We believe that any man ell
ected will do his best to perform the
duties of his Office in a competenl
and capable manner.
Although we are republican and
desire to see every man on the tick
ct elected there is no reason why We
should publicly abuse the candidates
on the democratic ticket, for, some-
one might say unkind thinks about
the republican and we would not
like that.
The republican tikcet should be
elected from top to bottom because
it is the progressive party and be-
cause all candidates stand on the
