The Mercer County trolley officials are
to ask the United States Courts to set
aside the act of 1911 which gives the
Public Utility Commission rate-makinp

making clause confers power that un-

on this point will be forthcoming within

tainted POLITICS
BY Peter Radford.

This country is suffering more from
tainted politics than from any other
malady at the present time There is
scarcely a campaign speech made, a
platform demand written or mea-
sure enacted into law that does not
carry the faint of personal gain OF
some politician or political faction
thereof.
There is more blue sky In cam
paign promises of many politicians
running for Office than was ever con-
tanned in the prospectuses of the bold
est promoters of chimerical business
schemes. There are more secret COM
binations formed by politicians in the
name of My Country, than we're ever
formed under any and all other
aliases. There are more political re-
bates hidden in the phrase BE it en-
acted" than were ever concealed I'M
der any and all other DISCUSSES.
The inordinate thirst for political
power and unrestrained passion for
mastery has caused more distress in
this nation than the greed for gold,
and it ought to be regulated by law.
No business combination ever pursued
their competitors as relentlessly or
visited more heartless cruelty upon
their customers than a political party
that seeks to make junk of an in
dustry. OF cripple business for party
success, through tariff measures, po-
litical supervision and ofttimes de-
structive legislation. Many political
platforms are as alluring to the voter
as the story of the rainbow with it's
pot of gold and their contamination
about as far-fetched. Self-gain is the
first law in politics. There are many
men in office today who, il they
could not shake plums off the tree OF
American liberty or cut a melon taken
from Uncle Sans commissary, would
have less desire to serve the public.
The country is surfeiting with patri-
OTIS, who will bare their breast to bull
let's in defense of their country, but
there are few men in public life who
will bare their breast to voters or run
the gauntlet of party disfavor in de-
tense of agriculture or industry. No
representative Of the people, who will
permit personal prejudice to dethrone
Justice, party success to disfranchise
reason or the rancor of political
campaign to influence judgment can
render capable service.
The preservation of our prosperity
depends upon wisdom, courage and
honesty in government, and the Amer
lean voter should seek these attri-
butes as implicitly as the Wise Men
followed the Star of Bethlehem and
they viii often be found to rest over
the stable; the pillow or the staff of
the Shepherd. The surest cure for
tainted politics and machine rule is
fresh air and sunshine and these i'm
portant elements are most abundant
upon the farm, and when farmers,
bankers and merchants are elected to
membership in legislative bodies, much
of the trouble in government will dis
annear.

WHAT DO YOU THINK OF OUR
TOWN?

Well that is pretty direct ques-
ton, and one, too, which might be an
swered in great variety of ways.
But q modest opinion concerning the
question, and from one who expects to
make this his home, may possible be
read with some interest by citizens.
Our town is indeed, beautiful for sit
uation Nature seems to have done
her utmost in creating fine site for
a city of genuine worth and enduring
progress. 1t would thus seem that
Nature must have designed this par
tlcular spot for a noble and high
minded class of citizens. Nature,
In this respect has evidently met with
genuine response. Every town or
city sas an individuality, a type of
its own, and thus attacts citizens of
the same general characteristics
a great extent, at least, we think this
is true.
The people here are observed to be
thoughtful kind, sympathetic and
helpful to one another And, as the
Postum man is won't to say, There S
a reason This is pre-eminently a
city of homes. The very atmosphere
Of things imparts to one restful feel
ing, thoughtful spirit, and all is
concerned in the development and
growth of the higher ideals.
In speaking Of our town as city
of homes, however, we do not mean to
say that it is not also place of sub
stantial business interests. BY no
means!
All the various kinds of business are
not only we'll represented, but they
also seem to be conducted by men of
good ability and those who possess
the spirit Of genuine progress. The
places of business are, for the most
part, well arranged, neatly kept and
managed with promptness and cour-
tesy towards customers that compare
favorably with many cities Of much
larger size. We wish you would all
get interested in your town and stand
by it. If a rich man starts a project,
encourage it; if poor man, help him,
Don't be afraid to stick your hand in
your pocket. If you have means, in
vest in something that will give EN-
ployment to somebody. Do not kick
on every proposed improvement sim
ply because it is not at your own door.
Do all you can to beautify your town
and your property also. Be friendly to
everybody and courteous to strang-
ers, and never forget that you are a
part of the town and that your own
department does its share in giving
the town its character. Sell and buy
all you can at home. Stand by all
other enterprising citizens and be
ready to do some Of the work your
self; and don't grumble or spend your
time in prophesying failures.

NeiehborIy Love Essential.


If religion pervades and colors the
whole life then ours is serious bust
ness, for it will let no corner of the
world escape its influence. The sooner
we learn that Christianity is not a
thing to be practiced in corner the
better for the world. The question Of
the eighteenth century, touching Chris
tianity, was, Can it be made to square
with the human reason? Of the nine
! teenth, Can it be made to square with
the results of scientific research? OF
the twentieth, What can it do? We
must learn to enforce not only love OF
God, whom we cannot see, but love to
our neighbors, with whom we are living
in constant contact. Neither without
the other is Christianity whatever else
it may be. Everything that interests
his neighbors must interest him, if he
is a genuine follower of the Christ.
1t is the mission OF the church-the
rural as we'll as the city-to evange,
lie the whole world, to train to the
highest degree OF efficiency those
whom it evangelizes and to seek to
make the spirit of Jesus the absolute
rule in all human relations.

ot. hOulS. MO.
Some years ago, the question was
asked: What is college? The at
tempt to, answer it shook the educa-
. tional world in America from center
to circumference. Another question is
now beginning to be asked What is
a church? Without undertaking to
give definition of it, let me ask, in
this initial paper, what the church
is for? The New Testament reveals
three distinct tasks to which it is
committed.
First, that of evangelization. The
church is divinely commissioned to
reach for the lowest and the least
man in the least land and offer him
sonship to the Eternal God; offer him
divine power, which lifts him out
of the bog and places him upon the
highest levels of human life, where
God and the soul are in fellowship
This alone were an immense priv
ilege.

Teaching the Art Of Living.

The church is commissioned also
to teach and train those who are
rich with its evangelistic message
The term, Religious Education, has
come to mean a specific thing in our
country, namely, the training of the
people in the local church in those
deep matters which pertain to the
art of living. / am not now speaking
of the work of education in schools,
colleges and universities, but the work
of education at Our doors, in the con
gregation. Every agency in reach
should be employed to the utmost in
this important mission. Indeed, the
local church could be made a sort OF
university for all the people, in which
the simple, practical arts and virtues
of everyday life should be taught and
enforced. Only recently has this
special phase of the church's work re-
ceived anything like adequate atten'
