SHARP REPLY ID TIE CAMPBELL LETTER Takes Exception at One
 Passage HE SEES LEADERS Will Probably Only Make Six or Eight Set Speeches-Drawn as Juror
 But Is Immediately
 Challenged

Oyster Bay, N. J., March 12.-A sharp reply to Congressman Phillip II. Campbell of Kansas was made today by Colonel Roosevelt, who took exception in particu- lar to one passage in the letter which the congressman yesterday addressed to him. Mr. Campbell was quoted as having point ed to the overturning of the decision of Pontius Pilate by the people as an argu- ment against the recall Of judicial de- cisions.
 Roosevelt's Statement
 Colonel Roosevelt dictates this state ment:
 Congressman Campbells position is in effect that the American people is as un- fit for self government and as prone to guilty excesses as the mob which de- manded the crucifixion of the Savior. I do not think Congressman Campbelfs com parison is in good taste, and in any event it needs no discussion by me"
 The statement was made on Colonel Rocsevelt's return tonight to Oyster Bay He visited the county courthouse this morning and got as far as the jury box, only to be challenged peremptorily. Then he motored to New York and spent sev- eral hours in the editorial office.

Roosevelt Eliminated

Mineola, I. l., March R.-Theodore Roosevelt was drawn as the seventh juror today in the damage suit of Michael Carmoody against the New York Central, but was quickly eliminated by John Gra- ham, counsel for the plaintiff, who chal- lenged the exPresident peremptorily. Why he exercised this right the lawyer did not explain. Both of Carmoody's legs were cut off and at a previous trial he ob- tained a verdict of $3O,000 against the rail- road.
 The appellate division reversed the judg ment and ordered a new trial
 He was plainly dsconcerted when ,he stepped from the box. I'm ready to do my duty,' he said, but I don't see why I have to come here daily if nobody wants me as a juror. I don't see what CarmoodN was afraid of, for I certainly would have given him square deal"
 MT. Graham had approached the editor so quietly that few were aware that MT. Roosevelt had been challenged
 You're a busy man" the lawyer said. and we will excuse a busy business man."
 Lawyer Explains
 Explaining later why he had challenged the editor the lawyer said:
 "He is a business man and I think he would do better toward humanity by serv- Ing it in some wise than by sitting in this boys case for three or four days"
 He gave out a statement replying to the state republican committee yesterday as serting the ex-President was inconsistent in assailing the state direct primary law as he had previously supported it.
 The editor said:
 'The present law is not only a worse law than the one we demanded at the Saratoga convention, but so much worse that a great many good men have told me 1t would have been better to have had no law at all"
 He said efforts were making to confuse the public over the law proposed by Hughes and the one enacted

Think for a moment Of the setting of
the lesson; John the Baptist had sent
his messengers to ask ifzJesus were
really the Messiah or If another one
SHOULD be expected. Jesus had replied
by many wonderful works-lepers were
cleansed, blind made to see, deaf to
hear, dumb to speak. evil spirits were
cast out, insane people were restored to
sanity, the dead were raised and to the
poor the good news was proclaimed
Jesus had then uphraided the cities of
their unbelief in the face Of all these
wonderful evidences of His mission. In
the home of a Pharisee. who was on the
ragged edge of doubt and had invited
Him to his house that he might study
Him further at closer range, He had
been anointed by the woman of the
town, who was penitent and grateful and
who received the fullness of forgiveness
for her many sins Then He and His
friends, including Mary of Magdala, and
two other women who went along to
minister to their needs, had taken an
other missionary tour through Galilee,
preaching and teaching and healing in
all the cities to which they went.
A BUSY DAY.
They had finally come back to Ca
pernaum and He was followed by such
Just to get in our minds some idea of the
work He was being called on to do,
let Us record here together the events
of that one day, which was typical of
many others. Here they are: The
crowds about Him for healing and hear
ing are so great He has no time to eat.
His friends think He has lost His mind
and finally induce His mother and breth-
rem to come and take Him away as one
gone crazy with the stress and strain up
on Him. The Pharisees- and scribes see,
His great work and insult Him, but He
answers them patiently and unanswer-
ably This opposition prompts Him to be-
gin to teach in parallels, and in the
afternoon He gives the group of para
b. es in Matt 10, showing the growth of
evil in the kingdom. He or osses the lake
in boat and worn out, falls to sleep.
The storm doesn't waken Him, but. the
first cry of human neeG does and He
quiets the sea with a word. He casts
but the legion of devils from the Gada
rene demoniac and because the people
request it, leaves those shores that
evening and returns probably by boat
to Caper naurn.
This was one, but only one. of His
busy days. 1t is not only we'll for us
to appreciate this, hut 1t is also essential
for us to know these circumstances to
property interpret some of these para
bles which we will have in the lessons of
the succee ling weeks.
THEIR CHARGE AND HIS ANSWER.
The popularity Of Jesus was so great
at this time that the rulers were
alarmed. He was clearly antagonistic
to all they held orthodox, and to see
the people throngiig to Him alarmed
them for the safety of their own cause.
They could not deny the great work
that He was doing. Lepers were being
cleansed, the blind were seeing, the
deaf hearing, insane people were now

ning-everybody could see that. They
sane, the lame were leaping AMI rum
were in a predicament. They could not
deny the power of the Man; they had
to offer some explanation of it. TheJ
were not willing to admit that these
were evidences of the Messiahship, be-
cause they would then have to give up
their positions and their practices. So
the explanation they gave was this;
These are wonderful works, of course;
anybody can see that. But He does
them by the power of Beelzebub, the
prince Of devils. Light had come into
the world, but men loved darkness
rather than light because their deeds
were evil.
can almost see the smile on Jesus
face as He replied to their charge. II
was a smile of pity and of der;sion
combined Don't you know He asi.e l.,
that Satan working against Satan will
not build up his kingdom, but destroy
it? The folly of their position was
shown by stroke of His great genius
as a teacher and leader.
But His words that followed were
most solemn. Never did He condemn
them so severely, because it was by
their own words that they were con-
demned He said that every other sin
might be forgiven, but that the sin
of disappearing agaist the Holy spirit
could not be forgiven They had
blasphemed the Holy Spirit, by whom
He was doing these marvellous works;
they had spoken of Him as the spirit
of Satan himself. Such a sin was IN
pardonable.
THE UNPARDONABLE SIN.
A great many people at times are
troubled for fear they have committed
the objectionable sin. Some have even
offered as excuses for not accepting
Christ that they are too great sinners,
that Gods willingness to forgive can
not extend to them. Oh! how gracious He
is they have not ever ina gined. lie
can and will save to the uttermost them
that come unto God by Christ. But the
sin of blasphemy against the Holy Spirit
is unpardonable and extends beyond the
pale of Gods forgiveness becase the
man who blasphemes the Holy Spirit
flies with defiance in the face of the
One by whom he may acknowledge the
Lordship of Jesus Christ. Being dead
in trespass and in sins, he can make
no move toward Christ. he can show no
evidences of dife, until the Spirit of
life has quickened his spirit. When he
blasphemes the Holy Spirit, who is the
spirit of life, there is no chance for
him to recognize his own sin and and
Gods mercy in Christ and hence that
sin cannot be forgiven.
My brothers, no matter how wicked
you are, no matter how blighted your
life has been. you are yet within reach.
Call upon Him, and you shall be saved.
for whatsoever shall call upon the name
of the Lord shall be saved. Turn no
more away from Him who loves you and
yearns for you. He is waiting to be graz
cfous eft not II be said of YOU: This
is the condemnation, that light came into
the world, and he loved darkness rather
than light. Come today.
