A Text Applied To Local
Conditions

So much has been said by the
apologists for the open saloon about
personal liberty that we were deeply
impressed by the very clever pre-
sentation of the other side of the
question in the sermon of Rev. 7. G.
Lang of Montezuma, who filed the
Central Methodist pulpit in this city
Sunday, for Pastor Fisher who was
in Montazuma for the purpose of
of delivering a Baccalaureate SER
mon:
Theme: The Law and The Gospel.
Text: But whose looketh into the
perfect law of liberty, and contin-
ueth therein, he being not fOrgetful
nearer, but doer of the work, this
man shall be blessed in his deed"
Games 1:25).
INTRODUCTORY REMARKS
(a) The perfect law of liberty is
an expression Of the profoundest
wisdom and suggests a most happy
conception of law in it's relation to
human life and destiny.
(b) There can be no liberty with
out law. Liberty without law is
license; and the logic of license is
anarchy; and anarchy is the disso-
luton of all the bonds that can
serve the integrity of the individual
and hold society and civilization on
their onward course.
(c) Man may have the power,
never the right, to do as he pleases.
My personal liberty ends precisely
where your rights and interests be-
gin. Your personal liberty ends pre-
cisely where my rights and interest
begin.
cd So true is it that there can
be no liberty without law, that, in
proportion as law approXimates the
standard of absolute justice, and the
life of the people actualize the ideal
of the law, in that proportion is
liberty perfect.
(e) In the present imperfect state
of society a man may fancy it
personal liberty to open Saloon at
my door But we are nearing an
age of nobler social regeneration
when we shall look back upon such
circumstance as a relic of barba-
riSm.
(f) John Wesley stigmatized hui
man slavery as the sum of all
villainies /" But slavery was at
least the industrial discipline of an
artless people and their moral prep
aration for the suffrage of free men.
(g) The reign of rum is the NOR
al bondage of the race. 1t is utterly
without extenuation as force in
human history, and its political
power is the abomination of DESC
lation standing in the holy places"
American free institutions. We tri-
umph can never mean the triumph
of personal liberty; its downfall can
never mean the suppression of
popular rights any more than the
emancipation of an enslaved people
can mean the suppression of a mans

A party of men were out hunting,

them broke his gunstock IN some way

when the accident occurred. and mas
much as he was very anxious TO do
some shooting early the next morning
he decided to tx up his shooting iron.
Finding a walnut fence rail, he set to
work. His only tools were an ak and
a big pocket knife. All night long he
labored vigorously at his task. and by
morning the gunstock was finished and
back in place and worked like a
charm.

Pos,s Short Stories.


There are In the best of Poes brief
tales a constructive skill, command
Of design and a gift of decoration rare
IN any literature and almost unknown
In English, which is ever unduly negli-
gent of form. And no one need won
der that POe's short stories wandered
swiftly out of our languages into
French and Italian and Spanish, into
German and Scandinavian and BOhe-
milan, into strange tongues where no
other American author, except Feni-
more Cooper, had ever before pene-
trated. His weird psychologist studies
have Influenced later writer's as unlike
as Maupassant and Richepin, Fitz
james, O'Brien, Robert Louis Steven
son and Rudyard J<iplihg. His tales OF
mystery solved at last by Observa-
ton and deduction have been initiated
by Dumas and Sardou, by Gaborlau
and Boisgobey, by Wilkie Collins and
Conan Doyle. And Sherlock Holmes,
the only fictitious character to win in
ternational recognition in the Anal
years Of the nineteenth century, is the
reincarnation of figure first projected
by Poe.-Brander Matthews in Cen

The Waste Of the Wind.


Every one who wants a cheap mo
tive force has tried to harness the
wind. Every child has made paper
propeller or a windmill. But can 1t be
said that the possible uses Of the wind
haze been as arduously investigated
as such recently discovered forces as
steam and electricity and gases? Is 1t
not conceivable that the practical uses
- the wind are underestimate just
because they are so familiar?
We cannot help thinking that the
wind will be more variOusly employed
some day in the same way that prob
ably the problem Of laying under COM
tributiOn the great physical fact of the
tides will be solved. One would think
that the wind could be used for cleo
trio lighting, yet there is no practical
apparatus for the purpose. True, the
wind is variable and occasionally alb
sent, but as electricity can be stored
one might suppose that this was the
very case in which variability did not
particularly matter.-London Specta-
CoE.
