CHRISTIAN
HARMONY

The Richmond Virginian in refer
ring to the spirit manifest in the
churches of that city, says:
The beautiful spirit of brothcrly
love and cooperation which was man.
ifested by our Richmond churches
during the splendid simultaneous
evangelistic services. is being con-
tinued Quite a number of the con,
gregations are now meeting together
every Sunday night in union services
and pulpit exchanges" arc of very
common occurrence
This is most certainly as it should
be. The age OF religious controversy
is past. Christian unity is being
preached and practiccd as never be-
fore, and we have good reason to be-
lieve that the churches and church
members will become even closer unit.
ed in the ''bonds Of Christian love-
us the years come and go.
Differences of opinion and doctrine
will no doubt continue, but these diff
fcrenccs should not and cannot pre-
vent manifestation of the real
Christian spirit.
Readers of the New Testament, of
course, know that divisions existed
in the church in the days of Paul, who
alludes to them in his epistlcs. There
were men in his day who claimed to
be Paul, Caphas and others, and who
separated themselves, 1t has ever
been so, until in our day there are
over one hundred different denomina-
lions of Christians. 1t is high time
for an understanding to be reached, and
the spirit said to be manifest in Rich
mond might be studied with profit by
all.
The Virginian tells us that there is
Il concerted movement upon the part
of all who call upon the name Of Jesus
Christ to work in union. A move
ment similar to that in Richmond is
now being inaugurated in Alczan-
dria. Virtually all the Protestant
Churches are uniting to bring about o
revival of religion early in the fall,
and the churches have appointed COM
mittecs with that end in view. Union
services will be held under a huge
tent, and it is planned to make a
house to house canvass for the pur-
pose of interesting every person in
thu community in the commendabIc
work. The hands of those engaged in
this propaganda should be upheld.

ORPETS TRIAL

That the trial of the young college
student. Orpet, whose spectacular
case has laboriously occupied the at
tention of an Illinois court and the
public generally for the last two
months, would result in a disagree

lowed the testimony could doubt. Al

guilty and the alleged slayer of Mart

rs THE CLOUD
ABOUT TO BREAK?

There are multiplying signs that
the industrial world is beginning to
believe in the coming Of peace. From
an over the globe the steel trade is
receiving orders for ship plates for
merchant vessels, while it, is widely
reported that no War-material orders
are being given to run after January
/ next. The New York Evening Post
suggests that this may be in part due
to the Increased PRODUCTION of British
and Russian factories; none the less,
st is possible to deduce some be-
lief in Tightening Of Europes
horizon. So far as our own war order
companies are concerned, it was an
nounced last week that the du Pont
powder mills had cut off one SHIFT OIL
men, and the Westinghouse Air Brake
Company is dismantling some OF the
buildings it used for making OF num-
tons. In addition, there are known
to be numerous cases where plans are
already under way to convert mush-
room war order plants into factories
for the production of tine plate, dye
stuffs. and other material needed IN
the peaceful arts. All of this be 1t
noted, has disturbed Wall Street not
at all, so that those prophets VINO
b.vo looked for violent convulsion
at the close of the war may we'll take
courage. Indeed, the peaceful charac-
ter of the orders now pouring IN to
the steel trade give every ground Tor
the belief that the United States will
be called upon to furnish a very large
share of the material needed for the
Of Europe.

Richmond Journal suggests, if there
lis a spark of manliness left in the
follow, it should kindle a flame never
to wane so long as life lasts. If it is
not there, he is hopeless. For, al
though he is adjudged innocent of the
capital crime, he is a self-confessed
moral murderer. He took advantage
of a trusting girl, betrayed her and
then his love-no, not that, his fancy
growing cold, he brutally left her
TO worry herself into self-destruction
The public has little sympathy for the
acquitted prisoner, although the YER
dict is probably just in view of the
evidence. The prosecuting attorney
cverdid the states zeal in his vim
dictive pursuit of the accused, and
that he failed to sustain the charge
is, in measure, due to this display
Of venom. The case hung on thu eva
aide of potassium question of who adj
ministercd it to the girl. The pro-
pondcrance CT evidence and deductivc
reasoning pointed to self-administra
ton and the jury decided. That a
trial of this nature should consume
sixty days, demand hundreds of wit
nesses and cost the county thouands
of dollars more than was necessary
may be charged to the faulty system
of criminal practice in this country.
There is too great freedom allowed
opposing lawyers, too much attention
paid to trivialities, too many objec
tions interposed, resulting in endless
delays, and too many authorities con-
suited and argued for prccedents.
Finally, the trial judge is 10th to
make ruling lest it be accounted en-
ror in the upper court and so reflect
upon his judicial standing. Lastly,
there should be 50 court of appeal on
technical errors.

|INCORRIGIBILITY
| AMONG THE YOUNG

AT various recent conferences OF
charity and correction workers-both
state and national-speakers of au-
thority have laid stress upon the need
of some service that young men might
render to the nation. In New York
the other day Presiding Justice Frank
| lin Chase Hoyt referred the members
Of the state conference to the in
crease in lawlessness among the
Young men of today. "To me" he
said. at resembles a lack of sclf-dls-
cipline that must lead in the end to
a disrespect for all authority. The
gangster is the extreme type, but the
symptoms can be observed in many
other classes. Never before has the
offender been treated so we'll" Inc
Indianapolis News in commenting
upon the above says it may be as
others in Justice Hoyt's position have
intimated. that i'll advised lenity is in
large part responsible for the "dis-
respect for all authority" That, how
ever, most of us are loath to believe.
We have strong and abiding faith
in the Justice of another chance. !"
And courts, of course, would prefer
to err on the side of mercy rather
than to deprive the young offender
Of an opportunity to reform and thus
become a good and useful citizen.
Still. as another speaker remarked on
the same occasion, "some young men
are cid offenders. even though they
previously have been lucky enough to
escape conviction" And, he added to
let them go free is to put a premium
on offenses.
The most annoying cases that ap-
pear upon the dockets of Police
Courts are those in which young and
thoughtlcss people are the defend
ants. The authorities of Alexandria
realize this as much as those in other
sections Of the country. Under the
present. laws Of Virginia, youths un-
der eighteen years of age are vir
tually immune from responsibilities,
save in cases of felony The law re-
quires the justice to give juveniles pri-
vate trials and to resort to every
expedient to save the boy. OF course
in cases of chronic incorrlgibllity the
offenders can be sent to reform
school. But this course is drastic
and, if possible, is generally avoided.
Under such conditions, parents should
do their part. and when their off
spring are hailed into court it should
not be the fault of those who should
set them proper example and do
everything in their power to teach
their offspring respect for authority

~ RNING
&C TIDE.

: 'fkat the Nofeussse has passed from
ls German, to the allies hands IS
p:sent to all observers. The Kaiser
! himself has been compelled to wit
ness the retreat of the Teutons be-
fore the oncoming British.
&. This is tantalizing to the heroic
Germans, who supposed they are in
vincible. During more than half a
century victory has followed Ger
! man arms. 1t was so in the war with
Denmark, and later with Austria
and with France in 1S70s The cur
rent was still running Germany'sb
way two years ago, and only began
to slacken recently. But that the
tide has now completely turned is a
fact that cannot be gainsaid nor
resisted.
A dispatch from Rotterdam is sig
nifcant. 1t says it is we'll within the
truth to describe the present feeling
! in Germany as one of deepest gloom.
A few days ago there was hardly
man in Berlin who believed that
serious military effort was to be
made by England. The present at
titude of the German people is as
il new enemy had entered the field
against them.
Their most trusted commentators
talked for months about England's
"paper army" Events have now
shown the German public that the
paper army has materialzed into a
great host of trained soldiers who
are driving their own best troops
from positions they believed impreg-
rable.
The result is that there is manifes-
ktation of public dismay that is CIV
ing the government the greatest con-
Germ. In Berlin they are talking for
the first time of the possibility of
their iron wall in the west being
broken. The vast majority of the
German people long ago gave up
any hope of conquest and any desire
for anything further than a speedy
peace.
They believed in the termination
of the war this year on the ground
that the allies would exert their
maximum strength in an attempt tt
break their lines; that the attempt
would fail, and that they would be
prepared to- negotiate compro
nise peace.
The possibility of tnc allies eff
forts succeeding Rad never SEEN con
templated until last week. when tn.
British captured the second-line pc
sitions.
The German general staff has is
sued an appeal to the people of Ger
many for confidence in the ccnduc
of the fwar. y
::ssNever has e,,world ezrerienee'
anything SO stupendous as the rres
ent battles" says the appeal ''NeYe
has en- army hravsd z:sat oyrs he

AS ADMlRER SEES RUSSIA
New and Greater Empire to Be the
Result Of the Present Euro
pean Conflict.

For long enough Russia has been
the pupil of western Europe. She
has outgrown that phase, and in the
full enjoyment of her majority may
worthily play hostess to her guests
from other lands.
Wars of aggression have been for
eign to her. She has only fought
when forced by imperative necessity
or by the alien-bred ambition OF
her bureaucracy.
Her dreams are rather of the spir-
itual, of the betterment Of her poor,
of the development of her own.
Russia in herself is invincible, and
the temporary occupation of her
frontier provinces means nothing.
And the magnitude of her suffer-
ings will, to some extent, be as
suaged by the greatness of the boon
she will receive.
Unwittingly, Germany has been
the creator of new Russia, of a
united people bound together as
never before by the tie of blood, by
the purity of its aims and by the
memory of its past slavery.-New
York Telegram.
