JUDGE GORDON'S
DECISION.

The views of one learned member
of the judicial fraternity have brought
the people of Alexandria face to face
with most serious problem. In the
first place, We do not propose to be
discourteous to the ermine, and if we
secretly feel more patience for the
doctrine of the recall Of judges than
we have heretofore expressed, we DO
not intend to say so at this time. The
time for exchanging idle banalities
and empty courtesies, however, is
past. The growth, progress and pros
perity of Alexandria, have been check
ed and will be seriously hampered if
the learned opinion handed down on
Saturday is permitted to stand UNI
reversed, and, therefore, for the pur-
pose of this article, we propose to
call spade spade, and if in doing
so we are compelled to tread on some
body's toes, we are sorry.
We differ with the learned court in
a number of points in his decision;
we,will enumerate few as follows:
1st. The learned court is appar-
emily of the opinion that the city of
Alexandria has no right to take into
her borders, the site recently purch-
ased for high school and owned by the
city, lying partly within the present
city limits, and partly in the County
of Alexandria. In this We differ with
the learned court, from standpoint
of common horse sense.
I'd. The learned court is of the opin.
ion that a city of sixteen thousand
people, contiguous to six railroads
can get along very well without pas.
senger or freight station, and the fact
that such station is situated beyond
our corporate limits, is no reason fol
annexation. Again we must respect.
FLY differ with the learned court.
3rd. The learned courts admits thai
there is no available site in the pres
ent corporate limits where hand
some and expensive home could b
built, but contends that there is still
sufficient room for the building O.
cheap houses. Again we must dis
sent. 1t seems to US that the rich maj
is just as much entitled to a plac
to live as the poor man.
4th. The learned court says tina
there is nothing to indicate the gEowtl
of the outlying villages that drai
into Hooff's Run is liable to be yer.
great or that the use of Hooff's Ru
as an open sewer will be any NOR
dangerous in the future than is :ha
in the past Again we must diffe
with the learned court, and say
word in defense of our hustling littl
sister city, Rosemont.. The evidenc
must show that four years ago, Rose
mont was COW pasture land Il an
place in Virsinia ever grew more raj
idly, we hardly think it came unde
the observation of the learned court.
The question now is what do til
people of Alexandria propose to do

The Wisdom OF Jacobs Course.
Jacob insisted upon Esau's accept
ing the present. Il would stand as a
pledge of good faith between them.
lcsau would be all the more willing to
see the prosperity for Jacob, for he
realized that he had gotten the bet
ter OF his brother, first by getting
the patrimony, and secondly by get
ting so rich a present. Evidently Ja-
cob's course was wise He still hao
plenty. and God would give him more
His chief concern would be the pro
motion OF the great Abrahamic Prom
Use, the fulflment of which lay be
yond the present life.
The Lesson of Generosity.
One lesson which Christians may
draw from Jacobs course Is that OF
generosity and benevolence towards
those who have no interest in the
Heavenly Promise. AS Jacob willing
ly set aside all earthly rights and
privileges in favor OF the Abrahamic
Promise, so the Spiritual Heirs
should do likewise. Jacobs
standing with God wUs very different
from ours, however. for our Inherit
ance is different from his. The Alb
rahamic Promise Is to have a double
fulfilment. The earthly fulflment Is
to come TO Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and
all the faithful OF the Je wish Age;
while the Heavenly fulflment is TO
come to Christ, and the Church of this
Gospel Age.
Nevertheless. the general principle
holds good with both cases-that
, faith i'm the Promise makes second
airy everything else in life. Hence
as Jacob willingly set aside earthly
rights and privileges in favor OF his
fathers house, leaving all TO his
brother without contention, trusting
only to the Heavenly Promise, so
must Spiritual Israelites forsake ali
earthly hopes and aims in order tc
obtain joint-heirship with Christ In
the Kingdom.
AS Jacob gladly gave presents Ia
Esau for the sake of peace, in car
/ rying out Gods arrangements, 50
should we Christians willingly give
our partners in life, our brethren
friends, etc. the larger share o.
earth's good things. If thereby we ma,
forward the Lords Cause. The
things Of the present life are the
worlds prize. Mankind knows moth
ing higher We, on the contrary, ap
preciate the Heavenly things, esteem
ing all earthly things as unworthy o.
