living and lineal member of that
body here and now of the visible
historical institution established by
our Lord Jesus Christ, commencing
its outward organic life the day OF
pentecost and further formed and
fashioned by the holy apostles in the
first Christian century.
THE Episcopal church stands for
institutional Christianity for the out
ward, visible church, for organic
,and historical continuity.
1T is assuredly distinctive mark
of this church that ii stands for the
orthodox faith-for the Christianity
of creeds, the councils and the scrip
lures. It's thirty-nine articles are
interesting and valuable way-marks
.of its history; its confession OF faith
is expressed only in the majestic
sufficient symbols it rehearses the
articles OF its belief 1t requires no
more, it can ask no less.
The Episcopal church is withal a
church of federation and is eminently
a church of scholarship. Freedom
of opinion within the wide circum-
ference of the creeds, the stimulus
of controversy, the attrition OF par
ties and schools Of thought, utmost
loyalty to scientific principles OF his
torical, physical, literary and phil
osophical research these are its vital
breath-the atmosphere in which II
lives and moves.

Vote For Scully

In the nomination of James
Scully, the Democrats present can
didate for Circuit Judge who must
command general respect and con-
fidence. He has all the elements of
character, the intellectual strength,
and the legal attainments to make
an ideal candidate for this most i'm
portant position. His sense of justice
is keen, his integrity unquestioned.
He could be relied upon to conduct
the court on business principles,
with an eye single to the general
welfare and the dignity and suprem-
acy of the law.
He has been a resident of Ionia
twenty-five years, and a practitioner
of law for twenty years. He has
served the city as Mayor two terms,
and as city attorney four terms, and
in all his record no blemish attaches
to him as a citizen or in practice or
his profession. He won distinction
as a member of the legislature of
1S97-1S99, and for past four years
has made most commendable
record as a member of the State
Railroad Commission. In every
spot and place he has proved his
dDlllIy, his Hutllly " pupliS Iiuot
and energy of purpose in accomplish
ing results in the line Of official
duty as a public servant. His abil-
ity, his conscientious devotion to
duty, and his high character should
commend him to the voters of the
district without regard to party.
Mr.. Scully was born in Oceola
township, Livingston county, In
1862. He graduated from the Fem
ton Normal school, which he at
tended winters, working on his
fathers farm during the summer.
He was teacher in the district
schools OF his home county in his
early years. He early commanded
the confidence of his fellow citizens
as a public official, being elected
township clerk of Osceola on his
twenty-frst birthday. He came to
Ionia in 1889, where he studied
law and was admitted to the bar In
1890. He has practiced in both
Ionia and Montcalm counties, and
his estimable qualities as citizen
and lawyer are quite well known,
and should ensure him a strong sup
port at the polls.

Reasons-Church A Divine

Bishop John N. Mccormick was

why | Am an Episcopalian," and
said at once by saying that If to be
an Episcopalian We're TO be ouly that
and nothing more | could not give
a single cogent or compelling reason
for being one at all. If to be an
Episcopalian meant only to add an
other unit to the membership of a
denomination | cannot see why
should be one. | am an Episcopalian
because in being such | am a member
Of the one Holy Catholic and
Apostolic church founded by our
Lord himself. This is the only good
reason and to me, at least, it seems
all-sufficient. | am not an Episco-
palian because my parents were.
I'VE are not a denomination, nor
a sect, nor party, nor a system nor
a movement. We are part and par
eel of an institution divine in
stitution called the church. We are
by no means the whole of it, but
we most certainly are a part of it..
Therefore we like to call ourselves
churchmen and we rejoice in giving
in all things the pre-eminence to the
term the church. There is no such
thing as Episcopalianism, but there
is a Protestant Episcopal church in

mitted by magistrates as Migrants and

In Switzerland there is such q col
ony, located at Witzwill. In the canton
OF Berne. and 1t has proved most sue
cessful Practically all of the work
10 done by the inmates. Not only is
agriculture carried on, but other en-
terprises are also conducted. The
buildings of the institution have been
erected by the inmates and all OF the
furniture is made by them. They
even make wagons and carriages and
the various tools and appliances used
on the farm
An essential part Of the Witzwill
system Is the homes for unemployed
men. Liberated convicts are given
an opportunity to work and prepare
themselves for getting solid foot
hold in the world. AS a result Of tho
Witzwill colony there is no such thing
as tramp problem In the canton
where 1t Is established. The pro
fessional hobo. who is beyond redemp-
ton. steers clear Of the region; the
amateur is caught and usually re-
formed and made desirable cit
ixen.
With the establishment of such q
colony the vagrant in New York
would find himself between the horns
Of an uncomfortable dilemma-either
detention at the farm colony or the
giving a wide berth to the state in
which he now is found most often.
Whatever choice he makes should
mean an annual saving to the public
