Johns Letter.

What is the matter, Mr.. Editor, with
Progression as a belief-not along the
lower line from manhood to man, but on
the higher planep We plead guilty to
being such doubling Thomas that unless
we catch monkey in the very act Of shift
ing over from monkey to man, we will
not believe, even though we thrust our
hand into it's side and find a mannish
sort of an appendix. There seems to be
as impossible line OF division between
the many departments of animal life as
there is between the dead mineral world
and the vegetable world. Once fish
always a fish, once fowl always fowl,
once monkey always monkey. once
man always man.
When you look around on the world Of
mankind as 1t appears to-day, are you
prepared to say that man is now finish
ed product of the Almighty, prone as he
is to evil as the sparks are to fly upward,
created
"Nearer the mould than the rose,
Nearer the clod than the flower?
As we do not limit the almightiness
of the Almighty, nor question His work
manship, yet we would dare believe that
man is not q finished product, but
something whitfield out without aim or
plan, If death ends all. The lowest type
of man on earth to-day will stand sn-
perior to the highest living type when he
has breathed one breath of celestial air,
and shall know as he Is known, but the
highest type will still be higher, there as
here, for zone star differeth from another
star in glory"
The word has gone forth that every
sin shall receive it's just recompense OF
reward, and though hand be Joined In
hand, the wicked shall not 60 unpunish-
ed. We always believed, and still believe
and ask no ones pardon for believing,
that the word came from Him who rules
the world and "Who judgeth in the
EARTH" Does the lifelong breaker OF
the laws divine receive his just assets az
he passes along-his daily drubbings for
his nightly debauohesp 1t doesn't look
that way on the face of 1t. II not there
must be ''rod in pickle for the fooPs
back" over there.
But we are not sitting in judgment.
and have not even been consulted.
suspect that We shall have to stand up
and take our medicine sometime, some
where-a medicine to cure and not 10
kill. A medicine that kills 10 not q
medicine at all but poison. AS each
individual case is in the hand of the
Great Physician, the medicine will DO
the best there is in the Health Depart
msnt of Heaven. And 1t will be dealt
out to suit each Individual need, not
drop too little, not . drop too much.
That is only our personal opinion. Take
1t or leave 1t a. you will.

Physician there" JOHN.

CANAL ZONE UNDER
PRESIDENTS RULE
Mann Bill Giving Chief Execu=
tive Full Control in Panama
Is Passed
Director General TO Be Appoint
ed, Thus Doing Away With
Present Commission

WASHINGTON. Jan. 5.--With the
democrats fighting every inch of the
way. the Mann bill, providing for the
administration of the Panama canal
zone and centralizing the government
thereof in the president of the United
States, passed the house today by a
vote of 119 to 102. The vote was along
strict party lines.
). The minority kept the house in ses-
Sion until o'clock tonight by offering
amendment after amendment and de-
effort was made by Representative
Richardson of Alabama to have the
measure recommitted to the committee
on foreign and interstate commerce, an
aye and no vote resulting 104 ayes and
136 noes.
Section two of the bill, which confers
on the president military, civil and ju-
dicial powers, including the power to
make laws, was the object of spirited
attack, representative Keifer of Ohio
joining the democrats in the fight.
The bill, as it goes to the senate,
authorizes the president to have com
pleted the Panama canal and TO appoint
a director general of the canal and the
canal zone-thus doing away with the
canal commission. 1t invests the judicial
power Of the zone in one circuit court
and such inferior courts as the pres
ident may constitute, and allows appeal
to the supreme court of the United
States in civil cases involving $4,000
or more and in criminal cases punish
able by death or life imprisonment.
Trial by jury is granted in all prosecu-
tions for felony.

Four Wolves in the Denver City
Park Collection Victims of
Hydrophobia

DENVER Jan. 5.-Hydrophobia has
broken out among the animals at City
Park zoo in Denver, and as a result
four wolves already have been killed
and many others are considered in dan
ger, while a grizzly bear and two Gin
namon bears also are threatened.
The first intimation of the presence
of the disease came a few days ago,
when Claude HILL an attendant at the
zoo, was attacked by a large timber
wolf, other wolves joining. Hill mar
rowly escaped.
An investigation resulted in the tim
Der wolf being shot and its head sent
to the agricultural college for exam
ination. Today the college reported
that the wolf had hydrophobia. Three
other wolves, having shown signs of
ra bies, were destroyed.
1t is feared that still others will de-
velop the disease, as the timber wolf
attacked many of them. 1t also at
tackled the bears.
