more than 10000 persons would be
made homeless and more than 10.-
900 others woul dhave to he fed as
a result of the Mississippi river flood.
The general based his prediction on
the reports already received from
the army officers now in the field.
President Taft sent letters to
Chairman Fitzgerald of the house ap-
preparations committee and Senator
elect James of Kentucky bearing on
the relief measures for the flood suf-
ferers.
IT do think II wise to make any
appropriation for the purpose of buy
ing food and other supplies until the
officers reach the ground and give us
some idea Of the amount needed and
the extent of the suffering and des-
titution." said the president in a let

fore any appropriation is made," he
continued. "the secretary Of war will
not hesitate to Use the army supplies

hand a sufficient amount to relieve
such suffering as can be relieved in

OF the great teacher we read, "He
spake as never man spake." He was
the man Christ Jesus, but he was not
a fallen man, not sinner His life
was transferred from an heavenly to
an earthly condition; hence as a man
he was holy, harmless, indebted and
separate from sinners.
The eight Beatitudes illustrate the
difference between the teachings of
Jesus and all other teachings, from
every other quarter. He had new
view of what to present. His is a diff
ferent message from all other mes
sages to this day While other teach
ers instructed the people to hold up
their heads, to remember noble an
cestors, etc, and thereby be blessed,
Jesus encouraged his hearers to re-
alize that the poor in spirit, the hum
ble-minded, would receive the great
est blessings.
While other teachers held forth the
mighty, the influential amongst men
as the patterns to be copied, If hap
piness would be attained, Jesus, in
these Beatitudes, sets forth the re-
verse. His prescriptions for happiness
have indeed been followed by few,
and these alone appreciate their merit
and are finding the blessings prom
Used, both for the present life and for
that which is to come.
Called to be the Elect.
The mission of Jesus and his teach
ings, at his first advent, were not to
the world, but to a special class: He
that hath an ear to hear, let him
hear" The message for the world will
go forth at his second advent, and We
have the assurance that then all the
blinded eyes will be opened and all
the deaf ears will be unstopped and
the knowledge of the glory of God
will fill the whole earth.
In today's study Jesus was address
ing such of the Jews as had the hear
ing ear, such as had an inclination to
be his disciples. He was addressing
the class to whom he said, "If any
man will be my disciple, let him deny
himself, take up his cross and follow
me, and where ! am there shall my
disciple be-" 1t was to this class that
the Reatitudes were spoken, not with
thunderings of Sinai, not with threats
Of vengeance and death If the lessons
were not learned.
The master was addressing such as

ence of God after finishing his sacri-
fetal work, to impute to them his cov-
ering for their blemishes and imper-
fections and to give them standing
with the father, and to make their
sacrifices holy and acceptable to
God" (Romans KILL He was in

best make their calling and election

which they were called Others may
gather precious lessons from these
Beatitudes, but only the spirit-begot-
ten can appreciate them fully.
The Palace of BIessedness.
The foundation of the Palace OF
Blessedness is Humility. None can
ever hope for share in the Messianic
kingdom except as he Is humble
minded: blessed are the poor In
spirit, for theirs is the kingdom Of
heaven" To such and such only will
this great blessing come. 1t would
never do for God to accept as a men,

we have an illustration of what pride

humility shall be primary test as re-
spects the bride class.
The Palace Reception Room upon
the foundation of Humility, on the
ground-ioor of the palace, is the
chamber of sorrow-mourning. Only
such as know what it Is to be touched
with the feelings Of human infirmities
can be members of the royal priest
hood. which by and by is to deal with
and assist back to harmony with God
| whoever wills of all humanity. This
reception room of sorrow seems nee
essary for our complete separation
from the things of the world, the
flesh and the devil. Blessed are they
that mourn, for they shall be COM
forted."
The palace library is meekness.

Lord and fully enjoy the palace of

mankind Then those OF the earth who
will receive the control will be such OF
mankind as shall have learned their
lessons of meekness.
The dining room: Hunger for
righteousness. All who will be joint
heirs with Christ will be lovers of
righteousness and haters of iniquity, in
likeness Of the redeemer. 1t is very
important. therefore, that in our palace
of blessodness we have a large and
well-appointed dining room, where our
hunger and thirst for righteousness
may be encouraged and satisfied at the
same time: BLESSED are they who
hunger and thirst after righteousness,
for they shall be filed" " .'.~>.'.
The door of the palace: Mercy.
One of the most important lessons for
the New Creature to learn is love,
sympathy, mercy. In the divine ar
rangement we must go out and in at
this door constantly. Our own imper-
fections continually require divine
mercy and should as continually i'm
press upon us the merciful disposition
toward those with whom we have to
do. Only thus will we be fitted and
prepared to be faithful and merciful
members of the royal priesthood in
dealing with and blessing the world
of mankind during the Messianic
kingdom. Blessed are the merciful.
for they shall obtain mercy" "If We
forgive not men their trespasses
neither will your heavenly father for
give your trespasses.'
The palace window through which
we may see God, is purity Of heart. We
cannot. while in the flesh, attain abso-
lutte purity in thought, word and deed,
but we can have heart purity-pure-
ness of intention and desire. Only such
as have this heart condition may hope
to attain the kingdom honors and to
see him whom no human has seen,
neither can see: Blessed are the pure
in heart. for they shall see Cod"
The parlor of our palace is repres-
ented by the characteristics of the
peacemaker. 1t implies a certain
resistance and victory in respect to our
own affairs, furnishing us the oppor-
tunity to help others: Blessed are
the peacemakers, for they shall be
called the children of God a
The kitchen of our palace repres-
ents the trials and diff culties incident
al to the rounding out Of our characters
as whole and our proper nourish-
ment and upbuilding spiritually:
blessed are We when men shall revile
you and say all manner of evil against
you falsely, for my names sake; re-
joice and be exceeding glad for great

NEW YORK REPUBLICAN
CHAIRMAN TELLS IDEAS
ON ROOSEVELT'S SPEECH

Washington, Feb. q William
Barnes, Jr., chairman Of the New

gave out q statement here tonight,
Just before going to the White House
to dine with President Taft. II want
it made clear that ! gave out this
statement before | went to the White
House" Barnes said. The most Of
the statement concerns Rooseyelt's
recent speech at Columbus,
"The speech of Col, Roosevelt at
Columbus" he said, sis violation
Of Republicanism When you casual
~ read it would seem to contain a
formulation of doctrine, but coupled
as 1t Immediately was with the dec
laration OF the authors candidacy
for the nomination to the presidency,
1t acquired virility but lost that dis
passionate devotion to principle
which would have given it whatever
quality it might have possessed.
The Republicans of the state Of New
York can no more be 'swerved from
their obvious duty now than they
were in 1895 when that state with
others united TO hold the party firm
in resistance to the crazed ideas OF
that hour"
