The political issue is: Help
win the war by supporting the
President. Support the Precedent
by giving him as counselors and
advisors, the men he desires pre-

he has confidence, men who will
help by correlation and if need
be coordination of effort and
ability. That men of his own
party are more apt to do this is
sound logic.

Saying Things And
Doing Things

The best way to measure the
strength of political parties in
campaigns is by their issues.
Issues should likewise be and
as rule are the producers of
votes. That the vote in future
campaigns will be influenced to
greater degree by clear cut issues
and less by claims or the influen-
ce of astute politicians is one of
the beneficial consequences of
the war.
In the political skirmishes
which have SO far preceded the
fall campaigns, especially for
office in the United States Senate
and House Of Representatives, no
difficulty was encountered on the
part of the Democrats to state
their issues in precise, strictly
confined and clear cut terms.

THE ONE SIRE THING.

During the latter half of 1914 hardly week
passed without the discovery of some cOcksure
but unrefiecting person that the great war had
knocked all religious creeds into snlthereens. The
most recent of these many discoveries is now
belatedly announced by the president OF Iaver-
ford Pa College who declares that Christianity
was completely bowled over by the first shot fired
nearly four years ago. Like all his predecessors
he assumes that Christianity and war are incom-
patble and, as war is, therefore Christianity Is
not
With such an absurd non sequlter accepted,
it can Just as readily be proved that Christianity
never was for during the entire nineteen centuries
of the Christianity era there has probably not
been year, perhaps not even month without
the waging of war somewhere on this restless and
turbulent planet. The mere mention OF the wars
since the beginning of the Christianera would hll
a volume. The past century alone has witnessed
more than thirty great wars and perhaps three
times as many relatively unimpOrtant military
conflicts History itself has been defined by one
of its greatest students as record OF the crimes
and follies of mankind, and all the greater crimes
that fill the historians times have been wars,
most of them traceabe to the love of dominion and
the lust of conquest What can be more rdc-
ulous than the implied assumption that war is
something so new and startling that neither re-
ligion nor humanity adjust itself to the dread
ful spectacle? Such a notion is as absurd as to
say that Christianity can not adjust itself to evil
ana SIN, When, IN IacJ, TO COMBAT theSe Is CnflS-
tianity'S real mission and its chief cause for eX-
istence.
The purveyors of this view betray their ignor-
ance of what Christianity is and what it stands
for. As matter Of fact, war gives Christianity
one of its greatest opportunities. In this pres
ent war; for example, wealth is given it's millions,
even frivolous women are denying themselves.
and people Of all classes are making unprecedent-
ed sacrifices, to say nothing of the millions who
are shedding their blood in order that the prin-
ciples of Christianity-the basis of all true prin-
ciple-may triumph over the threatening forces
of evil. The whole spectacle of just wars hero
ism and sacrifice is convincing and inspiring tes-
timony Of the existence of Christianity as a liv-
ing, active and unconquerable force. Whatever
may be this wars end or its political settlements,
the triumphant survival of Christianity is already
assured. In the midst of uncertainties, this is
the one sure thing.
