The Sunday Question.

Editor Courier.-In A. A. Shows ar.
ticle of March in the Courier / note
that he set FORTH that Paul sprang up
who let down the bars and admitted
the Gentiles into gospel privileges
The teaching Of this man was great
surprise to the Christian world" Now
wish to say, that there were no bars
up, or else there could not have been
a Christian world if the gospel had not
been preached to them.
Nv .rlease see Acts chapter 10, and you
will note that Peter was ahead Of Paul
to teach the gospel to the Gentiles.
But God is no: respecter Of persons,
but in every nation he that feareth him
and worketh righteousness Is accepted
with him (Acts 10:34-35.) For his
house shall be called an house of
prayer for all people. isaiah, 56:7)
Have we not all one father? Hath not
one God created us? Why do we deal
treacherously every man against his
brother, by profaning the covenant of
our fathers?" (Mal. 2:10D .
The above is plain and proven by
the bible. That God hath not barred
the Gentiles, therefore Paul could not
let them down. The bars of transgres-
sion are also down from the beginning
Of the world and we have our choice
to obey God or man. Did Mr.. Snow
prove too much? Yes. Our Sunday
laws are without bible authority.

Quotes Dean Lewis.
"Mr. Taft's position is perfectly
clear. It is that we have in this coun-

people, who cannot be reached by the
people, but who govern them and ought
to govern them; and who protect varf-

SON AND DEMOCRATIC PARTY
IN DEs MONIES SPEECH

Des Moines, March Ex-senator
Thomas P. Gore Of Oklahoma, de-
parted for Washington early today fol
lowing conferences with members OF
the Iowa Wilson league. The Okla
homa senator came to Des MONIES
from the Lincoln banquet Tuesday
night after receiving an invitation
from the Iowa Wilson league to speak
here in behalf of Governor Woodrow
Wilson. w.t.
Addressing an enthusiastic demo
cratic audience, Senator Gore pre-
dicted if Governor Wilson is the demo
cratic nominee for president he will
win in Iowa over any republican can
aidate and insure the election OF
democratic governor and United
States senator.
"If could nominate the candidates
Of both parties" said the speaker,
would name Senator LaFollette and
Governor Wilson" W. j. Bryan was
mentioned as the other democrat
measuring up to the demands OF the
party for standard bearer this year.
Authors of the Zimmerman letter,

Iowa against Governor Wilson and in
behalf of Champ Clark, were crltl'
cised by Senator Gore He referred 10

sSenator Gore discussed the tariff
and spoke particularly of the tariff re-
vision of the republicans and cited the
revision of the sugar tariff. Five cents

democrats attack upon the sugar
tariff and declared it would take the
republicans thirty years at the pres
ent rate of speed, to accomplish what
the democrats did in day.
In discussing big business Senator
Gore declared that the money trust is
the worst OF all
1t is larger in it's influence than
Standard Oil, the steel or tobacco
trusts. which could not exist II not for
the tariff and the money trusts. he
said.
The Joline letter was referred to by
the speaker, who said the double pur-
pose of the letter was to "set Bryan

and cause Bryans followers to turn
from Wilson. Bryan proved too big to
be trapped" he said.
