A HEROIC ACT

Mr.. Frank Pounds is deserving of a
Carnegie medal, as we'll as the con-
graduation of every man, woman and
child in town for saving the life of
little two-year-old child last evening
The mother had left the child in a
buggy on Pine street in front or near
E. Hands furniture store The horse
became frightened and started down
the street around the corner down Or
ange avenue, at a break-neck speed
The little child sat in the vehicle
helpless, and Mr.. Pounds, seeing the
danger that confronted the little one,
rlsked his own life to save it, He was
in his automobile, and running it up
to within short way of the fleeing
horse, he leaped from the machine,
and by almost superhuman efforts got
in the buggy and stopped the madden
ed animal. A number of people watch
ed the brave act and congratulated
Mr.. Pounds after all was over. Mr..
Pounds is an athlete and has the
nerve to do, and that he saved the
child's life there is little or no doubt.
The mother was the most thankful
person imaginable when she crashed
her baby in her arms and found that
1T was unhurt.-Orlando Reporter

DEATH OF CHASE BILL

Among the late legislatures numer-
Gus sins of omission was the failure
of the senate to pass Representative
Frank Chase's statewide commission
form of government bill, giving towns
of more than a thousand population
the privilege of voting for and against
the adoption of the commission with
out further reference to the legisla-
ture.
Mr.. Chase passed the bill through
the house early in the session, meet
ing with practically no opposition. He
thought the senate would pass it just
as readily, and this would have been
the case had the bill received proper
championship. However, it was neg
lected by those who should have work
ed for its passage, and strongly op-
posed by a few senators who feared
political loss in case their cities
adopted the commission, and despite
Mr.. Chase's efforts during the last
week, his bill was killed.
If any newspaper or citizen express
ed opposition to the bill, the Metrop-
oils failed to see or hear of such op-
position. In spite of the favorable
public attitude, though, the senate
draped another casket of public hope
with crepe in the darkest hue.
Maybe the bill will pass next time

rael, the twelve tribes. and their re-
gathering will be the first blessing to
humanity under Messiah's glorious
reign.
st. Paul brings this matter to our
attention very explicitly in his letter
to the Romans. Q1:25-32.) The logic
of his argument should be carefully
noted. including the fact chat Natural
Israel win receive mercy at the hands
of Spiritual Israel-in the Kingdom.
The nation of Israel transgressed
Divine commands. and was therefore
worthy of punishment-but this did
not signify that the nation would be-
come alienated from the Divine mercy
which God had already intended and
promised through Abraham.
Neither Israel. in the days of Ho-
shea nor at any other time. nor any
other nation. knew anything about
the life and Immortality which God
purposed to proffer to mankind
through the Redeemer In due time.

Ocala, Fla, June 8, 1911.
To the Editor Ocala Banner:
/ would thank the originator, insti-
gator or incubator of the law estab-
fishing a recorders court for Ocala,
with two extra officials annexed to
the city pay roll, to publicly defend
the same, giving the reason, necessity
or argument for such court, or why
Ocala should be taxed to pay these
officials for service heretofore per-
formed by one in an average of thirty
minutes day?
Perhaps Mr.. Carney and Mr. Bullock
can enlighten the tax payers about
this crying need of Ocala.
Why a lawyer? VIII Mr.. Carney
and Mr.. Bullock maintain that no lay
man has sufficient knowledge, judg-
ment or even common sense to hold
city court, and pass sentence on such
petty offenses as come before said
court?
What about Judge Lyles' office?
Why did not our legislators be con-
sistent and take it away from him,
and give it to lawyer, and create the
office of assistant justice of the peace
for another lawyer?
/ think the tax payers would have
been delighted if our lawmakers had
created about four assistant city at
torneys, one for each ward; or, better
still, to have made it nine, one for
each standing committee of the city
council
If we must have frills, why not
have enough to go all the way around
and up and down-there are lawyers
enough-and as to the tax payers,
who cares for them? They can be
governed without their consent; they
delight in being humbugged anyway.

the ten-tribe kingdom, the people being
transported by their captors several
hundred miles to another portion Of
the Assyrian empire.
The overthrow Of Israel, recounted
In this study, we are directly told. was
a judgment from the Lord There
fore the Lord was very angry with
Israel and removed them out Of His
sight; there were none left but the
tribe Of Judah only"
Sin tends to national destruction in
very natural way-by sapping the
vitals OF the people Of the nation. But
In Israeps case there was something
more than this. God entered into a
special Covenant with that nation by
which He bound Himself and they
bound themselves.
Israel agreed to be Gods people, to
serve and obey Him faithfully; and
God agreed that, If they would do so,
He would specially favor them and
look out for their interests. their
fiocks, their herds, their health, their
prosperity; all were to be blessed so
long as they were loyal and true. On
the contrary, God specially pledged
Himself that If they as a people prov
ed unfaithful to the Covenant. He
would specially chastise them. punish
them, deliver them to their enemies.
etc. Thus Israers prosperity or defeat
indicated surely the Lords favor or
disfavor. In a manner not applicable
to other nations.
Destroyed Without Remedy
Our text, taken from Proverbs. tells
what will be the final outcome of any
conflict between God and the sinner.
Whoever shall be remanded to the Sec
ond Death. there will be no hope for
him.
The philosophy of this is plain:
Adamic death, which comes to all men
as result Of Adams sin and his con.
demnation as a sinner. is to be entire
ly wiped out. and Adam and all of his
race are to be fully released from it.
Those of us who. as the Spirit begot.
ten Church. enjoy this favor in the
present time, must not expect any
further favor along this line in the fu-
ture. for Christ dieth no more; and
only one share in His redemptive work
is provided for every member of the
race.
When in the future all the world
are brought to a knowledge of the
Truth. the grace Of God will then be
to them "a SAVIOR Of life unto life. or
of death unto DEATH" as it is now to
the Church.
