THREE HANNAizED PRESIDENTS
In 1896 the New York World help
ed Mark Hanna to Hannaize the gov
eminent Of the country, and the fol-
lowing extract from a recent editori-
al in that paper shows that it now
understands the dastardly character
CT the work which it helped to sue
cess:
"When the Republican party was
Hannaized in 1896 it fell into the
hands Of the protected interests,
which considered laws commodity
to be bought like anything else. IN
return for gigantic campaign funds
that party gave the Government OF
the United States into the keeping
OF these interests. They have writ
ten and to large extent they have
"enforced' the laws that they
bought.
This period Of Hannaism embrac-
es the Presidencies of Mckinley,
| Roosevelt and Taft. OF Mr.. Nc
KinIey's devotion to the idea that 1t

care of the rich apd to trust the

The American Bar Associa'

The American Bar Association did
not stulify itself by depriving the
three colored men Of their member
ship in the Association upon technic-
al grounds. The resolution adopted
on the subject was the result of q
caucus, the proceedings of which
were not public. In that way the
possibility Of speeches discreditable
to the. American Bar and the age in
which we live were avoided There
was no debate on the resolution.

Our federal constitution was draft

previously from the tyranny Of ma
3jorities. And a, careful study Of that
great pact will disclose the fact
that its primary object is the
protection OF minorities. The ma

thinking men favor constitutional re
strictions for the protection Of min

the greatness of Jesus without being off,
cially notified of the fact. However that
may be. the man Jesus as described In
the Bible is such a man as any of US may
become.
God has not given all of US the mental
equipment to become great. Society has
not given all of US the opportunity or
education to become big moneymakers-
to rise In the world as some say. But
he has made it perfectly possible for
every one of us to develop character like
unto that which the human Christ show
ed.
In his autobiography Benjamin Frank
lin tells Of an interesting means which
he used to improve his character. He
made list of the qualities which he
would like to develop in himself, and,
taking them up in what he considered to
be the order of their relative Importance
he specialized" in each one for a given
period. Then. while still attempting to
hold what he had gained. he proceeded
to develop the next quality on his list.
Why cannot we, each one of us. take
the list of human attributes in the charac-
ter of Jesus which has been given above,
rearrange them in the order of impor-
lance so as to suit our own individual ne
cessities, and carry out a practical .imi-
tation of Christ on the plan Of BENJAMIN
Franklin? Perhaps you have better
way?

Never have churches gone further in
social directions. and never have they en-
tered more directly into the worldly af-
fairs of their members and all others.
Churches claim that, this social creed
having been adopted by them, they are
in touch with common people. OF not
being democratic. The creed is one that
was undreamed of. even by those outside
of the churches. two or three decades
