THE SUN OF June 81 Is an article in con-
nection with the growth OF the various re-
lgious denominations in America, with
particular stress given TO building opera
tions. Tho report stated, among other
things, that Christian Science has ex-

churches and societies throughout the
world, and new ones are springing up at
the rate OF one about every three days
Although Christian Scientists are
spt nding large sums building churches

aim and end OF Christian Science IL to
repeat the works Of the Master In healing
the sick. saving the sinner and comforting

The Eiagellant Clause.

Secretary BRYAN is quoted a. follows
with regard to the national abasement
and self'inficted punishment clause 10
his proposed treaty with Colombia
In the Dubois memorandum the
United states honestly regrets and In
the pending treaty the Government of
me United States Of America expresses
in its own name and in the name OF the
people OF the United states sincere re-
gret.' There Is no material difference be-
tween honestly regrets aud sincerely
regrets"
There is very material difference.
however, between the honestly re-
grets' in the draft of a diplomatic
memorandum without significance as
an official expression of the Govern.
ment's attitude and the sincerely re
grets' Of treaty ratified 10y the Senate
and proclaimed by the President before
an astonished and somewhat amused
world.
One Is an unconpleted mistake, a
foolish tentative during the administra-
lion Of President TAFT. II IT had come
10 the Senate for ratification and con
summation, as this similar folly now
comes to the Senate under President
WILSON'S auspices. 1t would have mer.
tied exactly the same fate there.
The latest edition OF the Standa rd
Dictionary contains this definition OF
Flagelant:
'One OF a fraternity OF body OF morbid
fanatics OF southern and central Europe
tthirteenth and fourteenth centures)
who sought TO secure the pardon OF sin
by walking in procession barred to the
waist and scourgng themselves. or being
scourged, until the blood came"
In our humble opinion Uncle SAM is
not cut out for Flagellant. Both by
nature and habit he is particularly I'M.
fitted to become Flagelant publicly
scourging himself, at Mr.. BgyAN's in
stance, in order to secure pardon for a
ain which he never committed.

Innate fate OF legislation have been prac-

The right OF petition now appears to be
endangered by the same influence.
But one more step Is necessary, and
only the form OF democratic government
will remain.
Let Congress. under the same influence
which has accomplished other infringe
ments OF its rights, now consent to cit. as
well as to adjourn, only at the will of the
White House. our Executive will then
possess the powers for which Charles I.
