The weekly chieftain. [volume] (Vinita, Craig County, Okla.) 1905-1913, 1912-02-16

In the daily task of hard-working,
pains-taking newspaper man there
comes many misgivings as to what
should be printed, what should be said
Tor unsaid on this or that subject. The
editor of even small, insifnificant
newspaper talks to more people every
day than any minister in any town or
city in the land talks to, and to say
the right things and to advocate the
correct principles at all times is in
deed a hard and difficult task. To ad-
vocate those things that would better
the condition of the community is the
earnest desire of most men who write
and publish that which comes under
the public eye. But that which pleases
one may offend another and the great
Ithrobbing heart of humanity is in con-
slant warfare and contention, as to
what is right and what is wrong.
In these days of wide spread democ-
racy every man must have his say
and out Of the whole we must sift the
wholesome from the malignant and
the dangerous. The thing we started
to write about is the work of evange-
Ilists-men who go about the country
preaching the gospel of Christ. Wan
Idering preachers who stir up the layaty
Ito a more pronounced and energetic
effort to live the Christ life, and to
bring the masses to sense OF their
moral and spiritual obligations.
The more settled and permanent
work of the church is left to those who
remain on the field and continue the
work as started by the evangelist.
The work of the evangelist is like
the charge of an army. or the division
of an army on the field of battle. To
ioverwhelm the enemy and sweep him
from the field in utter route by a
brilliant dash and then leave the reg
lular soldier to hold the field against
ltue return of the enemy which in
many cases is difficult and even inn
possible.
But what general when going to
make charge would send out and get
a strange commander to lead his sol
ldiers to the onset? Would he not
rather lead his men disciplined under
him. who understood his method OF
command than entrust SO important a
function to a stranger. Sometimes it
lis necessary to lay seige, and sap and
Imine the strongly entrenched enemy
land over come him by constant ham
Imering and drive him from his
trenches by sheer logged and irresist-
liable perseverance, Pickett's famous
Icharge at Gettysburg was led by a
lcommander whose men were trained
Ito obey orders and who would at the
word of command follow him into the
Jaws of death. So it seems that the
regular pastor ought to have trained
force that would storm the heights at
word and who would bring victory
wherever organized effort could pos.
sibly prevail.
