st. Louis Star: The confession Of
Richeson merely makes certain what

a man OF his temperament and his
tory and the conditions which con-
fronted him, and what he did is
natural result The world has many
Richesons. men OF great physical at
fractions for women, large mental en-
dowment, little constancy and slight
resistance to temptation, with moral
strength lacking.
Such men are dangerous, not be-
cause of criminal minds, but rather
the reverse. They have promptings
toward morality, and those prompt
ings put them where their moral
weakness makes more havoc than if
they had not. They put Richeson
into the pulpit, and there he had not
sufficient moral strength, with all the
support the position gave him, to re-
sist his temperament and the temptar
tons which beset the feet of every
man, most Of whom have not the sup
port Of the pulpit in fighting them.
He was just a pitifully weak man,
endowed with personal charm and
mental faculties to make his weak
ness all the more destructive. We
find Richesons in every walk Of life,
and occasionally in the pulpit, but
their weaknesses are their own and
the pulpit is not responsible more
than is the bar or the medical asso
citation when they are lawyers or doc
tors.
If a man is so weak he can not walk
uprightly and deal with honor with
his fellows while in the pulpit, there
is no place on earth where he could
Unfortunately, the Richesons can moi

Predicts Chinese Republic.

China Is to have either a constitu-
tional monarchy or a republic, with
strong probabilities of It's being a re-
public, according to Bishop w. s.
Lewis Of the Methodist Episcopal
church, who has recently returned
from China, where he has been for
the last four years. Bishop Lewis,
who spoke in Chicago, said:
The people Of China are q unit IN
desiring a republic. The Manchus
are without money and their rule has
been so despotic that its complete
overthrow is certain. and will be COM
plete. A republican government has
already been set mp In China, and only
awaits general acceptance. Il IL more

nation will be changed from Pekin to

the imperialists and the revolutionists

States won the heart Of China by its
insistence on the preservation Of the

- POVERTY'S CAUSES y.

that a paradox? Then make the most
of it. Heretofore as well as now it
has been true, as the above named
society reports for the current year,
that poverty due to industrial condi-
tions is far in excess of that produced
by vices
Nor are these conditions accidental
or unavoidable. Poverty among the
industrial poor is caused by the
wealth of the idle rich. Every dollar
that goes to anyone who doesn't earn
it, is extorted somehow from others
WHO do earn it.
