there was every indication that a
spirited fight was brewing
Republican Leader Mann arose ana
inquired: What proposition do you
propose to make for debate on this
measured"
Before Chairman Flood could reply
Leader Underwood jumped to his feet
and took command of the admin.stra.
ton forces. at is the desire of the
Democratic side" he said, 'to put this
resolution through as speedily as pos
sible in order that it may become a
law tonight
Mr.. Mann suggested four hours de.
bate to be equally divided.
q would not insist upon the i'm.
mediate passage Of this resolution
were it not for the fact that the presi
dent has said that it is Of the utmost
importance to the nation that il
should go through at once"
Mr.. Mann maintained his attitude
of resistance, encouraged by Republi
can applause.
"If the president comes to us ask
ing for advice that is one thing" re.
turned Mr.. Mann. IF he comes tC
tell US what We should do that is
something else"
1t was decided there should be one
hour and a half for each side.
AS Representative Mann took the
floor the house grew silent. for he was
to make the principal speech against
the presidents position Beginning
with elaboration he said:
of the incidents mentioned by the
president in his message had occurred
in England or Germany or France or
any great nation of the world no
resolution like this would now be
pending. Because Mexico is weak we
think we have the right to declare
war against her in the hope that such
| success would be easily accomplished
Cause for war;" Mr. Mann con
tinued. "Why the United States like
every other civilized nation ought not
to go to war simply because it does
not like a man. | fear that the per
sOnal resentment of the president is
largely sentiment due to the fact
that Mr.. Huerta has not bowed down
to his methods.
"Mr. Chairman, | am unwilling to
declare war against Huerta simply be-
cause President Wilson does not like
him"
The speaker was interrupted with
hostile demonstrations from the Dem.
ocratic side with the galleries joining
in the groans and Kisses. Speaker
Clark was obliged to demand order.
Great applause greeted Majority
Leader Underwood as he took the
floor at the conclusion of Mr.. Mann's
remarks. The galleries Joined in the
handclapping and cheers that con.
tinued for some time.
This resolution may mean war;"
said Mr.. Underwood in measured
tones. ut may mean peace. Let us
hope that the ultimate result that will
be achieved by the passage of this
resolution will be peace and good
order in the republic of Mexico and
| the establishment of friendly relations
| between our two republics.
"Our flag has been dishonored in a
foreign land. The president of the
United States comes here. He he
not asked you to declare war, but asks
you to sustain him in requiring p
decent respect for your flag and an
honorable consideration for the rights
of your government"

the Gospel Age God has been gather

declares shall be a royal diadem-nut

BY manifcsting what He has done
with the Church, Jehovah will show

The permission of sin. the Pastor
maintained, has given opportunity for
God to develop His great Plan for the
eradication of evil The Almighty
could easily have prevented Satan
from bringing sin into the Universe.

which He will eventually accomplish
through the permission Of evil. There.
fore He did not Interfere when Satan
tempted our first parents, but permit
ted all mankind to be born in an i'm

Then the Pastor showed how Adams

death guarantees the cancellation of
Adams penalty. and the establishment
Of the Messianic Kingdom for the re,

Jealous of Good Works"

For nearly nineteen centuries, the
Pastor declared, God has been gather
ing this people from various nations
AS the Apostle tells us. these are "a
peculiar people. Jealous of good works
These good works, the speaker claim
ed. are not the building OF hospitals,
asylums, schools, etc. but the same
kind Of good works in which our Lord
engaged at His First Advent The
Scriptures assert that Jesus went
about doing good" In line with this
is the Apostles injunction. DO good
unto all men. especially to the House
hold of Faith"
Pastor Russell then pointed out the
qualifications which constitute the ba.
sis OF selection. God desires those
whose hearts are right Here the
speaker depressed a little to explain
that this does not mean that the non
elect are to be thrown to devils ana
roasted to all eternity. God is not pre-.
meditating evil against even those who
are His enemies through wicked works.
but is merely calling a class to assist
the Redeemer in recovering mankind
from sin and death conditions.
According to the Scriptures. the Pas
tor declared. God is not now choosing
many rich, learned and noble. to con
stitute the Church class. The ricE
have plenty to satisfy their hearts, and
therefore do not feel their need The
intellectual rather look down upon the
average of humanity as not knowing
any better than to believe the story of
mans fall and other Bible stories. He
deplored the fact that the world Ii
what they think is wisdom ignore
Gods Word, in which His Plan for
mans recovery from degradation, sin
and death is closely connected with
the fall of man and the redemption eff
fected by Jesus death on Calvary.
Whoever omits this part of the Bible
loses the connecting link, and cannot
perceive Gods Plan Of salvation.
The Bible says that not many noble
are called. The speaker showed that
the undetermined know that they are
morally above the average. and there
fore have a self-satisfied feeling which
prevents their realizing their need Of
Savior.
aye Are His Workmanship"
The Pastor next discussed the class
whom God has accepted and forgiven
through Jesus blood. AS the trans
forming work of the Holy Spirit goes
on in their hearts, they become noble
characters. Nobility of heart is what
God desires-loyalty to Him, to right
eousness, to truth. to the brethren.
The speaker lkened the Lords work
in this class to that of the lapidary
As diamond properly cut will radi-
ate the glories of the sunshine, so Gods
jewels, when cut and polished. will
show forth His praises. In the First
Resurrection these jewels will be
mounted in the gold of the Divine ma.
ture and placed in Gods dladem.
