Peace on E.rth.

Peace? Yes; that is after all and
above all our Christmas gift. To make
joy for others, to behold their joy, to
rejoice in It, is the Joy unspeakable.
And why? Because lit is gOdlike and
divine. Even so the Father joys in
our joy, and the Son perfects his Joy
in completing ours. Peace is the prod
uct of passing out of the human into
the divine element and activity. No
man is peaceful who cannot share, in
some faint way at least. in the ex
periences of his Father and his God.
That is the only real absorption into
the divine, the perfection Of which
heathen philosophy has dreamed as
its highest goal. but which the gospel
alone has brought to light and made
accessible and attainable.
How much our Christmas Sunday
has in store for us! May we all in
deed realize it's richest treasures and
feast our souls upon them. May it be
the happiest OF happy Christmas days
that comes once more to us As we
hear our children sing, may it be the
echo of the angels song, and as we
unite with them in praising Christ the
Lord may his peace enter into our
hearts and abide there forevermore

Abandoning State Rights.

Republicans in both houses of Con-
gress are commenting on the manner
in which the administration is drop
ping state rights. 1t is recalled that
many Democratic measures now aban-
don the policies long advocated. They
are more sweeping than are offered by
Republicans. The Presidential pri-
mary is a striking example of the new
idea. The Washington correspondent
of the Boston Transcript writes his
paper:
The doctrine of the State rights. SO
long insisted upon by the Democratic
party, seems to be ON the wane. Re-
peatediy during the present admins
tration President Wilson has advo-
Gated as administration policies meas

invasion of the state rights idea than
many proposals of the Republican
party. Republicans here are ex-
pressing their amazement at the ac-
quiescence of the Democrats In ad-
ministration measures threatening the
apolltion of the state rights principle
A partial catalogue of such measures
begins with the presidential primary
plan which the President sprang on
his party at the beginning of the
present session.
Republicans who believed in having
the presidential primary, and others
who opposed it. joined at that time in
the opinion that the measure was un
constitutional because it deprived the
states of function specifically re-

and everyone expects the bill to be.

Divorce of the Maine Central.


The divorce of the Maine Central
from the Boston & Maine, meaning
the disentanglement of the great
Maine system from the affairs of the
roads to the southwark, wrecked by
had management and the manipula-
tions of New York financial interests,
seems about to be accomplished. The
plan for the Boston & Maine to sell
the controlling stock of the Maine
Central to the latter road is to be
passed upon by the b. & M. stock
holders at a meeting on March 80,
and Of the shareholders of the Maine
road on the succeeding day. The trans
action. If carried through, will restore
the control of the Maine railroad to
Maine interests. which will ensure
conservative yet progressive manage
ment. along the lines that have char
acterized the Maine Central policy
from the first and have saved the lat
ter from the, difficulties into which
the other members of the New Eng
land system have fallen.
