Christians Should Mobilize.

The close union of church an
state throughout Europe has given
the former ample opportunity to in.
fiuence the state In medieval times
the state was primarily clerical, not
a political, institution. The church
had absolute power over the state.
But one wouldhave to search long and
diligently to find an instance where
the church has used is opp 1rtunity
and power for the prevention of war.
Its alliance with the state has made
it responsible-at least in part for
the wars which have distressed the
civilized world for centuries past.
The truth Island it may as we | be
squarely faced Christianity, while it
has regenerated not few individ-
uals, has not yet regenerated nations;
it has not yet exercised the spirit Of
jealousy, suspicion and revenge, of
selfish greed and unholy ambition, Of
disregard for solemn treaty Obliga-
tions, of wanton aggression and mill
tant imperialism, which have been
the primary causes of war. And why
not? Because the church has never
marshalled its forces for united and
aggressive assault upon these causes,
and because so many of the protested
followers Of Christianity in high
places and low Lave proved false to
i S principals and ideals.
Virtually unused hitherto, this
mighty force should now be modified
for a crusade against war. OF happy

trict that was overwhelmingly repub-
lican and he was fresh from the blue
grass fields of old Kentucky.
More recently, since his election to
congress as George A. Neeley's sue
cessor, the watch has become more
absorbingly interesting and more crit
ical. There were those who assumed
no real interest in the fact that Mr..
Shouse was a senatorial representa-
tive; but when the people of his dis
trict laid aside political prejudices
and decreed that he should go to con-
gress, everybody wanted to know just
what he proposed to do in the state
legislature.
Jouett Shouse has made good in
the senate. He has made more than
good. The fact that he is opposing
Governor Capper's unreasonable plan
of retrenchment is one of the most
patent testimonials that he is making
good. Mr.. Shouse may be little eX-
travagant in his demands for state
institutions, in the estimation of some
of his republican colleagues, but he
has the endorsement of majority
of fair-minded Kansan's and there
fore nothing to apologize for. Mr..
Shouse is one of the big men at To-
peka. His fertile brain is constantly
working and his quiet, unassuming
dignity commands respect from every
power with which he comes in con-
tact.
And, Jouett Shouse in congress
will be a magnet about which his
fellow-members will be drawn. By
reason of the personal friendship
Speaker Champ Clark bears him he
will at once step into positions of
power and prominence and that COW
eted goal to which all new congress-
men aspire is infinitely nearer his
reach than If he went there with only
the force of his own character as an
asset. Kansas is proud of Congress-
man Shouse-proud that he has
adopted the state and proud that we
have adopted him. The Gazette pre-
diets that never in his career, which
we trust will be long one, will his
have cause to regret the
fact that the highest confidence has
been imposed in Hutchinson
Gazette.
