At that time it was expected that the
auditorium of the temporary building
would be sufficient for the needs of the
congregation for some months to come
but the new congregation has met with
such success that this belief has been
disproved and the trustees are preparing
to meet the situation with the new chapel.
With the erection of the new chapel it

Infdelity.

The foundation evil is disbelief in, and
disregard of. the principles of Christian
ity. We may enumerate a great many
kinds of perils that threaten the well be-
ing of our nation. but they all arise from
one source.
The graft. the greed, the pride, the ex-
travagance, the injustice that exist in
the individual life and which in the ag-
gregate menace the welfare of the coun-
try are because men disregard the prin-
ciples of religion.
Laws In restraint of intemperance, po-
lygamy and the social evil and laws fol-
the punishment of graft and all the in
justices of misrule are only partially eff
fective. They do not reach the source OF
the evil. There is but one complete rem
edy. and that is religion, pure and unde-
filed before God and man.
Impurity. graft, pride and injustice find
no support from the true followers of
the Man of Galilee. upon whose Shout
ders rest the governments of the world.

officials in turning the tide against the

An El Paso Bond Election

They had bond election in Fl Paso the other day that is some Of the people held one. It was an election of the people by some of the people for all of the people Two issues. amounting to s29o0oe were to be voted on and by an overwhelming ma jority not of all the people, but of very few of them it was decided that the bagatele proposed should be spent For one of the issues there were 229 votes and against it 17 votes The other issue must have been less popular, for it was favored by only a13 voters. while there increased majority O against it. Thus, at the most, only ef6 of the took any part interest in the proposition to appropriate d quarter of million dollars to the public use.
 We can crow little but not too loudly. over Fl Paso. We had election on d bond issue, or several of them amounting to about the voted at Fl Paso a few months ago and only about six per cent of our registered for that election Hardly thirds of the registered vote was cast But that was not the of it. An earlier call for d registration for an election these bond issues brought out. remember, only twenty six citizens That just little more than enough to man the polls election day. That would have taken twentyfour of the qualified voters leaving two to to the polls and exer- else the privilege of freemen But there no as that they would be there, for it has never happened in the history of the Australian ballot sys- tenn that al he registered voters voted. The coun- cil therefore, aware of the traditional cowardli- ness of capital. apprehensive that if the bonds should be voted result Of the outpourng of twenty y-si voters the bond buyers might fear that the bonds were representative of such a degree of exhuberance of public sentiment would pre- clude attempt at rep udiation sometime. Ac- cordngly that election was called off and in time, another was ordered and the begged and mportuned register
 Fl Paso claims have population of 60,00o. It should have. least. 10000 voters, and if there is d property qualification there it should have at least 5000 voters entitled expression at bond election. Yet this important matter Of issuing $a5Oo0O bonds was settled by out of twenty-five.

Our form of government, while imposing any additional responsibilities upon the citizen, brings it more clearly to him that there responsibilities that he ought to accept
