rooIs rush in where angels fear
to tread" said a certain wise man,
| and here is another example. l
would not assume to diagnose the
case, but there is one thing almost
self-evident. Many of the disorders
that aflict US socially and politically,
using these terms in their broadest
sense, have their origin in our lnor-
dinate desire for personal aggran-
dizement. 1.-THE love of money is
the root of all evil" we read. and IL
holds true. Everywhere, from the
country school district to the highest
places in the nation, men are a1ter
office for what they can get out or
it; and the scramble gets hot ana
hotter every day. And so long as
this condition continues we need not
expect any permanent Improvement
in the conduct of our public affairs.
We may change our forms as we
please, but the root of evil re-
mains, and will spring up, bud, ana
blossom and ripen fruit.
There is philosophy in the con-
tention of the socialists that a so
cietv ca organized that no one per-
son can secure any pecuniary ad-
vantage over any other person Will
remove the temptation, though 1t
may not change the avaricious dis
position. And an appetite or an am
bition that cannot be gratif1ed Will
finally die of starvation. Whether
such a social organiztion would be
preferable to the present l am not
saying, but if these conditions con-
tinue and increase we may be COM
PEELED to try 1t.
i In ancient fable ''the apple of
discord" that provoked the anger or
the godesses, and was to Greece ana
to Troy, "the direful spring of woes
innumerable' was of gold. In an
cient speech the same word des1g-
mated the poet and the prophet; and
this old poetic fancy has been pro-
phetic of all the worlds history. The
love of money, and of the power
and pleasure it's possession gives has
deluged the world with blood. 1t has
DESTROYED cities and nations,it has
inspired every crime, and nursed ev-
cry vicethat is hidden in the depths
d
rampant today in our own fair land.
1T is sapping the foundations OF so
ciety, and threatens the destruction
of our beloved republic. How shall
we exercise this evil spirit?
There are. in deed, antagonistic
forces working for civic and polit-
icaI righteousness. But these lack
cohesion, and are not as active and
aggressive as the occasion demands.
First of all, and including the 9TH
ers is the spirit of Christianity. But
the church, the visible exponent of
Christianity, is handicapped by the
fact that it must have the contribu-
lions of the wealthy to carry on its
enterprises. Tainted money" Is not
altogether figure of speech. again.
there is deep down in the hearts OF
the people a substratum of virtue
and honesty, a love for truth and
Justice, that needs only to be arous-
ed into vigorous action. l have an
abiding faith in our nations future
and that even through much +-iH-'a-
ton the coming years shall equal
and excel the glorious past.

Paul Christiansen, claimed that his
wife was rs years old. of unsound
mind and under the influence of the
Gallocks when she made this will, and
argued therefor that the will should
be set aside. Mrs. Gallock claimed
that Paul Christianson had married
her old mother only six years before
her death, she having this homestead
and other property, and that Paul
Christianson through abuse of her,
drove her to seek protection at. the
home of her daughter, and that when
Mrs. Chrlstianson made this will, she
was Of sound mind and free from the
undue influence of anyone.
The jury brought in its verdict in
favor of Mrs. Gallock and the will
finding that Mrs. Christianson was OF
sound mind when she made this will,
and that no undue influence was pres
ent to shape its terms. Thus the will
is held good, vesting the title to this
land in Mrs. Marn GaIlock and her
five children, after Paul Christianson's
