VIII nave 20 take care or fhese poor
deluded people. Men ,of Anderson,
will we not make. our place one OF
safety where want and sin will be
lacking: AS has been suggested to do
this will require the Hnion OF all good
men and women, the Express com
panies, the railroads, and the banks
united In the fight to stamp ont this
evil traffic of shame and robbery and
this union standing by the ,siicers OF
the law, t

selves under him and lifting and car

we can assist him by driving the
robbers from the way and making 1t
safe for men to travel, without being
thus shamefully treated. We want
this old world to be a home where
every man, woman and child will
have square deal" Let thy
kingdom come and thy will be done
on earth as II is done in heaven"
Assisting God in answering this pray
er will bring the solution of all our
problems. To do this calls us to ac-
tion now aud in dead earnest The

A-COnsistency in Enforcing Low.
My friends, as men who are all in
terested in what is right, may we not
reason about this matter? Can An

and we condone the drinker and his

to teach God tricks! 1t yet stands
true that God is not rnecked for
whatsoever a man, sows that shall he
also reap" You may be gentleman

The polished, cultured, well dressed
devil Is a more dangerous devil to
reckon with because he Will catch
more fools and better fools. God will
not overlook the sin OF smiling at sin,
In high places and frowning at the
same sin in the places OF dirt and
rayerty. There Is. no need 10 try TO
