PERIOD but we have confidence that
cur Lords prophecy as recorded in our
text has II meaning and that the time
for its fulillmeRt must be very near at
hand We are well aware that the
natural man and bis scientific leaders
will consider the association Of the
facts OF our day with the words ut
tered more than eighteen centuries ago
us very foolish. We are aware that
they will say, as the Apostle Peter de-
c@red they would, that "al things
continue as they have been from the
foundation of the world" and that
such changes have been going on,
and will continue TO do so, without
any relationship to our Lords Second
Presence and the Time Of Trouble
with which this Age will end. e Pc.
ter 3:3, 4.) This is their view-the re-
verse is ours.
The Word of God teaches us that Mt
this time Of transition from the Gospel
Age to the Messianlc Age we are to
expect wonderful contortions Of ma
ture and some radical changes In the
earth's condition, in order that It may
be the better adapted to the wants Of
man throughout eternity 1t Is Gods
own declaration that He will make the
place Of His feet glorious-the earth,
His "footstool. Isaiah G0:13; GG:1.
Evidently great and wonderful
changes will be effected, some Of
which will be brought about gradual.
Iy For instance, we all know of the
gradual change Of the temperate zone
Its extension further and further to-
ward the poles. We notice also the
increasing moderation nearer TO the
equator. Those who recognize the
Power OF God can have full conf
dence that He Is able to perform all
the glorious promises Of His Word re-
specting the paradisaIcal conditions OF
this earth for the use of mankind dur
ing the Alillennlal Age and the ages TO
follow.

BONAPARTE
ATTACKS TREATY
Reduction In Cost Of Living
Kept Secret

In signed statement in the
Baltimore Evening Sun on "Polit.
ical Developments Charles J
Bonaparte Attorney General of the
United States, in the Cabinet of
President Roosevelt, discusses the
new Colombian treaty as to its fu-
ture political effects and also as a
key to the foreign policy Of the pre-
sent Administration in Mexico,
Panama, the Philippines or any
other country.
Mr.. Bonaparte cites an editorial
in which President Wilson is refer
red to as the highest type of Amer
lean statesman, who would rather
die than play politics with his high
office, and in concluding, uses this
paragraph:
If it be true that everybody
believes he would rather die
than play politics with his
high otfice,'' then unquestion-
ably no one will for a moment
suspect that, in negotiating the
Colombian treaty, he has at
tempted to use the powers Of
his office to discredit a prede-
cessor who may be, conceiv-
ably, a competitor at the next
election; and a thorough dis
cussion of this treaty, and of
the general foreign policy that
it embodies and illustrates, can
do harm to no one.
Mr.. Bonaparte also touches upon
the tariff, currency, income tax,
trust laws, plans for the Philip
pines and demand for a repeal of
the Panama Canal tolls exemption.
On these Mr.. Bonaparte says that
the American people hold suspend
ad judgement and that none has
awakened any perceptible enthus-
asm in the country, although with
more or less misgivings. Of the
ariff he says: "If the high cost of
trl"g has been really lowered by
he ncw tariff, the fact IS a CAREFUL
y guarded secret!" He adds that
here is feeling that the tariff is
to fair trial, and that
While business is as dull as ditch
water the Administration may not
'e to blame for it.
ION the whole, the question of
lr. Wilson s success or failure as
resident must be answered" Mr..
concludes.

EDITOR RETIRES

1t is with keen regret that we re,
cord the retirment Of Jerome Bell
as editor of The Star. No writer
in the State was 50 familiar with
conditions i'll Wilmington and the
DeImarvia peninsula. He used
tins knowledge for the public good.
HIS editorials were strong, clean
cut, and with a strain of caustic
wit that always made interesting
reading. No one ever questioned
where he stood on the subject at
hand. He never begged the issue.
Many public official has WINGED
under his singing lash. Once in a
fight, he neither asked nor gave
quarter. Jerome Bell has done good
work and Wilmington is better
by his writing. While we did not
always agree, we recognized his
ability and power. He was boos-
ter for everything worth while.
Editorial work to him was not fill
ing space-it was a conviction to
be eXprcssed,-or at least, we so
judged him.
Not pertinent here perhaps, but
as host he was peculiarly at home
We rural editors will always re-
member his kindness and atten-
tlon during the visit Of the Delmar-
via ditoers.
We release him for awhile-but |
lope to see him again draw sword
