La ley del contraste parece es-
tanen todo .su apogeo en- lasepo-
ca presente; pues va no basta Ia
meragcontempIaci6n del contras-
te natural de las cosas, ell cual
siempre ha existido y seguira
existiendo como una saba y sa-
Iudable provision de Ia providen-
cia en- darnos la luz y Ia sombra,
obrapdo acknowledgements, a fin
de dulcificar con la una las amar-
guras de la otra, sino que, a la
par que todo tiende hacia el pro-
graso,. esta nueva ramificaci6n
de la Yieja ley del "mal" tambien
pareee .hacer sus funestos pro-
gresos, y descubrimientos. Va
no sbasta, como bastaba en- epo-
cas- mas escrupulosas, la falsifi-
cacion de las cosas .exotericas y
puramente naturales, sino que Sc
hacen descubrimientos psicol6gi-
cos. a titulo de fantasias divinas,
entire las cuales escojo, como
puilto de vista de este argumen-
to, "ef mandan1iento del diablo".
Alguno pensara que tai vez Sc
trata de algo nuevo desconoci-
do, pero, al contrario, es algo
que, el que mas y el que menos,
estamos rigurosa, pero fatal
mente, spracticando, aunque tai
vez sin darnos exacta cuenta.
va hase echado a un lado
aquello de negar la existencia de
Dios, lo cual era ell contraste di-
recto como oposicion al princi-
pio de todo principle, y, como
tai, Eel diablo, que era el invisi-
ble lnlcladOr de La Tai ueSaSJFo-
sa iempresa, viendo que resulta-
ba Ell fracaso, pues que, negando
esa, no quedaba ninguna exis-
tencia possible para realizar en-
ella la efectiva obra de confu-
sion y amargura total de la mis-
ma, ha echado mano al mas fu-
nestoo sofisma de todos los sofis-
mas, convirtiendolo en- un man
dan1fento indirecto. Desde lue-
go, 6o es un mandamiento de edi-
fcaci6n, porque el diablo NADIA
puede edificar, pero 81 de des-
truccioh, puesto que, como todo
esta construido y evidenciado
hasta la saciedad por la misma
mano Y manifestation de Dios,
la obra mas adecuada y eficaz

lde la inventiva diab6lica esa Ia
Idirecta aplicacion del contraste
negative al principle affirmative,
mo negando la causa (la existen-
Icia) porque es impossible, pero 81
lanulando los efectos beneficOs y
saludables de la misma, que es 10
muy suficiente para que tado cal
ga de un golpe al profuntlo abs
mo del error, que es donde Sc des
vance, Y fragua todo principle
sano Y edificativo.
De consiguiente, como es solo
una ley de contraste, no es ne
icesario crear una nueva causa,
sino inventar algo que la desva-
nezca (de la mente, por supues-
|to) Y he ahi ell "mandamiento del
diablo", una cierta oposicion a
|cada ordenanza de Dios que, des-
graciada y lastimosamente, esta
produciendo ell mas alto record
de SUI funesto y preponderado al
canoe.
Els, 81, un solo mandamiento, y
bastante breve para hacerlo mas
facil Y practice, pero no hay nj
un solo detalle que Sc escape a su
perspicaz inventiva: Donde quie-
ra que hay una palabra de Dios
EN- ell modo Affirmative, ALI esta,
con demasiada frecuencia, un
mo-, mandamiento del diablo; y,
.donde quiera que hay una pala-
bra de Dios en- ell modo negative,
ALI esta, con igual frecuencia,
un "sf', (nnandamiento del dia-
blo) impidiendo asi, sistematica-
mente, que la voluntad de Dios
Sc obedezea y practique.

Mexico City, Sunday, Dec. 7.-J. Salter Hansen, who furnished the bail upon which w. o. Jenkins the American consular agent at Puebla, was released, declared to- night that he had acted on his own initiative. He issued this state ment:
 q wish to say the following: On Tuesday morning last, on account of certain facts that came to my attention, which I am in no posi- tion to disclose, I suddenly real ized that war between the Unit ed States and Mexico was in evitable unless one of the two governments was, ready to sacri- flee it's hono1s prestige and dignity by receding from the dangerous position into which it was forced.
 T therefore took all the steps necessary to. effect the immediate release on bail of w Jenkins and relieve the tension. I did so spontaneously, and on my own in- itiative, and l, am ready; and will ing to take upon myself the full responsibility or credit, according to the point of view.
 Ut was a source of infinite pleasure to me to hear that the news of the release of Jenkins cheered our president and I ar dently hope that his complete re- covery is near"
