must be proven false and not mere
ly stated as false.
In these words lie the whole

This spark of fire, kindled and set
ablaze, spread rapidly over all
Europe. The countries of Switzer-
land, France, Holland, and England
were awakened. Finally it over
flowed and spread swiftly over our
own land. The humblest, lowliest
yet the bravest, and greatest had
set the spark af1ame. The whole
history of the world would have
been different had Luther done
otherwise. The feeling that life
was a truth and not lie was felt by
everyone. Truth and reality instead
of falsehood and semblauce became
the criterla of meD. The cry of
liberty and equality arose. The
sleeping cOnsciences of every nation
of the world were awakened. No
one can be given the honor of lead
ing this new movement but the
plain, blunt miners son who re-
ceived his inspiration from the
somber Black Forest. Others but
followed in his foot steps. But this
spirit of ability and equality has not
yet reached its goal. 1t is still
climbing onward and upward.
Slowly it may be but surely. The
present existing evils in each nation
are far from few. Even in our own
free land there are a hundred evils
which need reforming. There are
many who realize these corrupt1ons
around us. There is a spirit of un-
rest and dissatisfaction lingering in
the hearts of men. But no one is
brave enough to step forward and
lead the mighty hosts to victory.
Never was greater need of leaders
in the cause of righteousness and
truth than today. We need leaders
who will sacrifice their lives and
fortunes, leaders such as Martin
Luther who will inspire men to live
their noblest and best Gladly
would we hail the Luther of the
twentieth century. Loyalty would
we follow him in the strife for truth.
But are we to wait In 1dleness and
do nothing until he come? Are we
justified in our own, individual at
titude toward these wrongs? No,
let us not wait in content, but let US
prepare ourselves for the strife, Let
us arm ourselves for the near con-
flict between good and evil, be-
tween truth and falsehood. Stand
ing today on the vantage ground of
progress we see all about us the
forces of evil drawn up in battle ar
ray. Far beyond in the dim, dis
lance stands shining, white castle
whose sun kissed turrets are ever
visible to those who but gaze in that
direction Let this castle, the
castle of righteousness be the goal
of our ambitions To this let our
lives and actions be individually
directed Then when the new
Luther appears be will find eager
servants and modern Reformation

THE THIRD CRISIS.


In the rotunda of the national
capitol at Washington the states of
the union have placed statues in
remembrance of those citizens who
have best performed the trusts re-
posed in them. Some one earned a
right to that honOred place, later,
through faithlessne ss to duty have
forever forfeited their right to be
remembered. So in the history of
nations those true to their ideals
and duties have endured while
many once great and strong, for
getting them have fallen to decay.
Three centuries ago, small group
of men and women, driven from
their homes by political and
economic conditions came to a new
continent to carve a home from the
wilderness. Others followed. Some
with hopes of religious freedom and
political equality, others led by
dreams of wealth and material sue
cess. The scattered and unpI otect-
ed settlements became a chain Of
colonies, growing in strength with
the hardships they endured and IN
wealth as the resources of the
country were developed.
They had braved the dangers of
a savage country for political and
economic equality and the frontier
life and training fOstered the
growth Of the spirit of equal rights.
Oppression from without brought
forth an expression of that spirit in
the greatest documentary state
ment of liberty that the world has
ever seen. That all men are created
equal and have equal rights to
liberty and property and op-
portunity was the proposition for
which they dared contend. 1t was
the basis upon which they estab lish-
ed the Government that has finally
demonstrated that democracy can
in fact endure. This brought to
a close our first national crisis.
Economic growth, unparalleled
in the histot Y of the world attended
the new government. A vast con-
tinent lay before its people with
boundless resources of coal, wood,
oil waterpower and soil. It's beacon
light of liberty penetrated to every

MEETS TAFT's OBJECTIONS.
Senator Crane Introduces Second
Bill When First Is Disapproved.

Although both the Senate and House
have passed a bill to amend the military
record OF Aaron Cornish in the civil war
introduced by Senator Crane, the Massa-
chusetts representative in the upper
house has introduced another bill with
the same object.
And thereby hangs a tale involving a
presidential veto. The bill as it passed
the two houses of Congress provided
that Aaron Cornish, late assistant sur
geon, 9th Regiment New York Voun-
teer Infantry, shall hereafter be held
and considered to have been honOrably
discharged from said organiza ton on
September 8, 1867 And the Secretary of
War is hereby authorized 10 grant him a
certificate of honorable discharge as of
that date.
The bill came before the President for
his signature several days ago and he
returned il to Congress without ap-
prevail. In outlining his reasons he
pointed out that the bill would require
the alteration of official records in the
violate. and he said that the requirement
that certificate of honorable discharge
be issued would require the issuing of a
certificate that was wrong.
But the President suggested that he
would approve bill with the same OBJ
iects in a different form, and Senator
crane presented the bill yesterday in the
form suggested by Mr.. Taft
1t provides that in the administration
of the pension laws Aaron Cornish, who
was assistant surgeon. 9th New York
Volunteer Infantry. shall hereafter be
held and considered to have been dis
charged honoraby from the military
service of the United States as a member
of said organization on the Sth day of
September, 1852.
