have followed the example OF other

There are important reasons for dis
couraging such enterprises. such races
are not legitimate sport. In most cases
they are but device for robbing the

could not continue why should public
officials license a business that is known
to be a fraud In most instances?
Horse racing with accompanying
gambling Is demoralizing in the highest
degree From all reports it appears that
many women are being victimlzed, and
the influence In the home OF wives and
mothers dominated by passion for
gambling can be imagined
But the racing Is a decided detrlment
to business. The promoters thereof get
away with the money that ought 10
have been spent In grocery and cloth
ing stores and other legitimate places
OF business. And this Is particularly
bad at this time when business Is rath-
err quiet compared TO what II was
some time ago; when a number of men
are out OF employment, and prospects,
owing TO the long drought and many
other circumstances, are not entirely
encouraging Horse race gambling,
and all other crooked business ought

A PROPER PROTEST.

The German Chancellor has very
| properly protested against the Roman
| encyclical said to contain judgments
about the reformers and the reforfna-
| ton. and the princes who supported
| that religious revolution, necessarily
distasteful to the Professionals OF Ger
| many. The Chancellor explained In
| the Reichstag that he had made rep
| reservations at the Vatican. asking that
| the damage caused by the encyiical be
| remedied as far as possible.
| The Reformation was a natural man
| Hesitation OF the spirit OF the age IN
which II took place. II was inspired
by a hunger and thirst for independ-
ence and freedom from foreign infu-
ence fostered during many centuries.
II was aided by the abuses OF which
many OF the representatives of Rome
were guilty. and the widespread cor
ruption and intolerance. II came al a
time when men were Influenced by
strong feelings OF national pride II
was Il time OF general change, in farm
ing, In modes OF living, and the change
In religion followed.
Rome does not, Of course look at the
reformation with kindness, but that In
no reason why II should officially In
suit the millions OF Germans who be
lieve that It was inspired from heaven.
There Is religious freedom In Germany
to the extent that Catholics and Pro-
testauts have equal rights and priv
ileges; II should be ali the more APP
parent that the deliberate insult OF
one religious faction by another, Is a
violation Of the courtesy and considera-
tlon without which liberty is impossible.
Rome Is sensitive about the alleged in
suits OF Methodlsts. II should remem-
Der the golden rule and apply IL every
where.
In this country too, We have relig-
ious liberty and equality The protest
registered by the German chancellor
against an offensive document, in the
interest OF peace might be carefully
considered by all who, following the
impulse OF intolerance. wound the feel
ings ~ their fellowmen without the
slightest regard for their rights 10 the
