WORLDWIDE UNION

phenomenon as something being
created by somebody from nothing
has never been observed by any iv-
ing person. In shows where it is
said to be done it is an admitted trick
or illusion and the reason so many
persons believe that the universe has
been produced that way is the belief
was forced on them by early train
ing and their lack of thought and
mental development.
In building a house, clock or ma
chine a workman assemblies the
parts one after another to complete
the structure. A large SNOWFALL is
made from a small by continual adj
ditions from without. By the action
of the wind, rain, sunlight and wa
ter the shape of the earth is being
constantly changed. The boundaries
of our lakes and rivers are continual
ly changing.
No act of a creator or outside part
is visible in any of these processes.
The universe is one grand kaleido-
scope acting automatically, ever in
motion, in which the parts are con-
tlnually Shltung, producing new and
varied forms of living and nOn-Iiving
matter. With a knowledge of these
facts our refOTmers should see the
futility of working for too much at
time.
Some proclaim for world union.
This is not scientific. Even one
union in a country is impracticable
at. present. Things are transformed
a little at a time out of pre-existing
material as proclaimed by science.
The workman should join SUCH or
CARNATIONS as have proved a sue
cess and gradually improve them.
Much valuable time is lost by reform
ers working for the desirable, al
though not practical. A study of.
science is necessary to give a proper
prospective. Theology is the old ex-
pIoded science. Get next to the new.

week was generally dry and quite

weather was very favorable for pick

pulling fodder, haying, and fall plow-

SCHEME OF AMNESTY WILL
Be OFFERED BY RUSSIA

LONDON, Sept. BIT is reported in
Petrograd advices that a well-consid-
cred scheme of amensty to political
offenders at present under sentence
OF exile to Northern and Asiatic Rus
STA, will be shortly promulgated under
the orders of Emperor Nicholas.
Acting under the extensive powers
granted to the Minister of the Inter
ior, that official, as indicated in the
following letters, has already seen
his way to liberate 12O political exiles
sent since 1905 by Administrative Order
to distant parts of the empire AS dis
tinct from these there are other polit-
ical exiles and prisoners who have
been tried and condemned by the
courts; such can be liberated only
by the express order of the sovereign.
But it is said that the Minister of
Justice under whose jurisdiction these
cases come, is with genuine sympathy
preparing a scheme of pardon, as
large and free as reasonable bounds
allow, for the consideration of His
Majesty.
The following letter by Mr.. Khvos-
toff, the new Minister of Interior has
been received during her recent visit
to Petrograd by Mrs. Sonia E. Howe,
of st. Luke's Vicarage, Finchley, the
originator and honorary secretary OF
the Committee for the Relief of Admin
istratiye Exiles in Northern Russia and
Siberia
Dear Madam:
Following on our personal discuss
ions l have the honor to inform you
that to alleviate the fate of administra-
tive exiles sent by order of the imper-
ial police regime to distant Govern
ments of Asiatic and European Russia,
have after careful review of their
ceases made arrangements for liberia
ton of 100 persons of certain categor-
les from exile and police supervision.
AS regards those exiles which are in
Siberia this order has been commeun-
icated by telegraph to the Governors
concerned. Further cases are being
considered.
Accept, dear Madam, the assurance
OF my sincere esteem and devotion.
