THE CHURCHES RESPONSE.
BILITY,

The church has a great response
bility in a Republic where church
members are sovereign citizens.
The greatest need of our time is
revival of politically expressed
religion. Mans greatest need is
not faith in God. He believes in
God, but he believes with a heavy
heart. What he needs is the faith
that he has the power and is called
to establish the kingdom Of heay-
en- on earth. If he had that faith.
his faith in God would become a
living force in his life.
Our modern men and women
are not happy. They feel a great
lack in their life. They do not
know what that lack is. What
they crave is religion, religion
that can satisfy their mind and
fill their heart. Their life needs
the kindling power of a great en-
thusiasm. They were meant to
live in heroic deeds. What they
meant to live in heroic deeds.
What they need is the thrill Of a
great adventure. There surges
up in their souls an infinite yearn-
ing. They must have more than
the husks of existencel Nothing
will satisfy them but the divine
fire of great faith, faith that they
now have the power to open the
gates of heaven.
The soul is awakened into a
God-intoxicated life by the over
mastering passion for a great
truth. or bv the stirring appeal Of
noble cause. You are citizens
with ballots in your hands. You
are kings of the richest portion Of
the globe in this age Of trans
cendant opportunity. Why not
crown your days with gloryi Do
you say that there are mountains
Of ignorance and Indifference on
every sidef / tell you that faith
can remove these mountains. You
can win in your day a new and
wonderful social Justice. Believe
in yourselves and in your divine
mission to do this thing. Believe
and act. The JOY of the battle,
the divineness of the deed will he
to you the birth a new life.
The hour calls for churches
filed with consecrated citizens,
men and women who strive with
fervor for the abolition Of poverty.
and the industrial emancipation Of
the race. The hour calls for a
church militant. We need Isaiahs
for preachers. We need Saw
onarolas to arise in all our cities
and speak with tongues and hearts

the street cleaner came in and gath

fake schemes and gift enterprises,
and popular contempt sprang up and
checked them. But some fell into

ISSUES WARNING.

Get-rich-quick swindles have been
great American sport for years. The
sharpers who sell fake stocks saw
their game endangered when Uncle
Sam started his liberty loan cam
paigns.
But they are smart-these gentle
men who live by their wits.
Instead of complaining they
jumped in and put themselves and all
their employees to work trading their
fake stuff for liberty bonds.
If you have a liberty bond or a
book of war savings stamps you are

name is probably on the sucker list
Of the oily tongued sharper, because
over 20,000,000 patriots bought
liberty bonds.
You are not to blame for being on

get off-away off-that list at your
first opportunity.
The American people are paying
out some half billion dollars year
to the support of worthless stock
schemes. The people reap therefrom
$500, 100000 worth of-thin air.
That is not wild guess. 1t is the
estimate given by the Capital Issues
Committee of the United States
Treasury. And the committee as
sures US that it is conservative.
Moreover, the half billion repre-.

gold that iron ore in paying guam

The tax placed on iron ore by the
act of the legislature remained the
only tax on the ore until 1896. Du-
ring that time more than $25, 00O,

in the development of the mines that
now exist. A considerable sum mas
been expended in fruitless searching
for ore bodies, exploration of small
outcroppings, and in prospecting in
waste places where no ore has yet
been developed. Very large sums
have also been spent in experimenting
with low grade ores for the purpose
of developing processes that would
make them marketable. The fifteen

$50, 100000 against the mining prop
critics which in due process of law
during the following ten years was
gradually increased until in 1905 the
valuation was $4,000, 900. In 1907
the Tax Commission was established
and the Tax Commission Immediately
raised the valuation of the mining
properties more than 100 per cent,

There are too many boys and girls
in the country and city, more in the
latter than in the former, who are
prone to look upon work as beneath
them. There are thousands of them
on the threshold Of maturity who re-
tain the same views and habits which
found encouragement in their earlier
years. What becomes of this class Of
people? Some of them awaken and
after a desperate struggle overcome
the habit and learn to work, to save,
and to prepare for the inevitable
rainy day. Many of them, however,
drift and drift until hey become ac-
ceptable recruits in the hobo army.
