a certain stigma will be attached to

HAS MESSAGE Of
HOPE AND COURAGE
Speaker -to-Be Champ CLARK
Says World Is Growing
Better

Springfield. Mass, Feb. 6.-Declar-
ing that he is an optimist and that
he believes the world is growing bet
ter, Representative Champ Clark Of
Missouri, speaker-elect Of the next
house Of representatives at Washing
ton, delivered message Of "hope and
courage" in an address today before
the Young Mems Christian associa-
tion, here.
Mr.. Clarke contended that it was
better, to- look upon the bright side
of things than, upon the dark, and
that a "jubilate is more pleasant mu-
sic than a misorere." II the world
were not growing better, he said. then
the school system which America
boasts and which costs 80 much was
an ignerminious failure and all re-
ligion was a failure, and he did not
believe either to be true. Why as
many good people believe the world
is growing worse was explained by
Mr.. Clark as a matter Of evolution Of
communications; that nowadays any
phone Of telegraph and man may
do thousand good things and never
got his name in the newspapers. but
the first time he does a bad thing I'm
1t goes"
Mr.. Clark amid that when he went
to Missouri thirty-five years ago the
average number Of homicides In Pike
county was between four and five q
year and now they averaged less than
one. That, he believed, was measur-
ably true of every other county In the
country.
Somebody once said," continued
Mr.. Clark, that after all. we are
simply veneered savages. neither
affirm nor deny that proposition. Up
to ten or fifteen years ago a prize
fight could be pulled of in any state
with absolute impunity. Now there
is not single state in which 1t is
not a penitentiary offense. Up to
comparatively recent years duel
could he fought in any state without
any fear Of serious consequences.
Now there is no state in which 1t is
not felony. A man who would have
anything to do with duel in Mis-
souri is stark idiot. It is a mur-
der in the first degree to kill q man
in duel there and a penitentiary Of
tense to fight duel; felony to
agree in Missouri to go out Of the
state to fight duel.
Thanks be to Almighty God wars
are becoming rarer and rarer. One
thing which the flying machine will
accomplish will be to put an end for
ever and forever to all wars. Lot
teries have been stopped. Institu-
tions for preservation Of morals. re-
lief Of human sufferings, for perpetu-
ity Of our institutions are springing
up on every hand. The idea Of
reformation Of criminals rather than
their punishment Is taking a deep
hold on the minds Of men. There is
more money today devoted to charity
per capita than ever before. Con-
troversial religion has passed and
practical religion is at hand. The
masses Of the people are wakin up
to the fact that politics should be
purified, demanding primary cleo
tions, senatorial elections by popular
vote and other important reforms.

the millennium. This mighty republic
is built not for . day but for all time.

God to be the dominating influence
