sy The REV. CHARLES sTELzLE.

10 the Bible student who reads
the word Of God with an open mind,
there are given revelations which the
wtsest men Of earth canRot surpass.
II IL true that the more the student
OF the Bible knows about the rules OF
Interpretation. about history and lam
guages. the more intelligent will be
his study, and the more effeetive his
teaching Of truth to- others.
But there's no doubt that the hum
blest man who In led by the spirit OF
God will receive knowledge and wis
dom that the worldly-wise man can
never learn.
But God never encourages a man to
remain uninformed-he never places
a premium upon ignorance.
Perhaps a good illustration of the
advantage OF general education and
spiritual revelation is found when one
tries to interpret the vision given
Daniel, the prophet.
Nebuchadnezzar had a dream which
his wise men failed to understand, 50
Daniel interpreted for the king.
Nebuchadnezzar had seen a vision
Of great image-the head was of gold.
the breast and arms of silver, the
thighs Of brass and the legs were OF
iron, while the feet were part iron
and part clay.
As the king looked, q stone smote
TIE image upon his feet, and dashed
II in pieces, and the stone became a
great mountain which filed the whole
earth.
And here, IN part. is Daniers inter-
probation as given to the king:
Thou art this head OF gold.
And after thee shall arise another
kingdom inferior to thee, and an
other third kingdom OF brass, which
shall bear rule over all the earth.
And the fourth Kingdom shall be
strong as iron: forasmuch as iron
breaketh in pieces and subdueth all
things: and as iron that breaketh all
these shall 1t break in pieces and
bruise.
And whereas thou sawest the feet
and toes, part Of potters' clay. and
part Of iron. the kingdom shall be
divided; but there shall be in II of
the strength Of iron, forasmuch as
thou sawest the iron mixed with miry
clay.
And as the toes of the feet were
part Of iron. and part Of clay. so the
kingdom shall be partly strong and
partly broken.
And whereas thou sawest iron
mixed with miry clay. they shall min,
gle themselves with the seed Of men;
but they shall not clesve one to an.
other, even as iron Is not mixed
with clay.

DNI TITO - By the
! VII IND - Occasional Prophet

There are many signs of increased
activity among the local Republicans
in their campaign to elect two dele
gates and an equal number of alter
mates to the national convention at
Chicago which will nominate the Re-
publican candidates for President and
Vice President of the United States.
Now that Robert I. Miller has definite
ly entered the contest for delegatorial
honors. his lieutenants are actively
organizing his followers in the twenty
four election districts, and a central
headquarters will be opened in the
downtown district in a few days,
While John F. Costello, the Demo-
cratic leader in the District, has as
yet taken no definite steps, he is
looking ahead to New Years Day,
when a program will be announced.
In the meantime tentative plans are
being formed for the future. 1t is
safe to assume that the six Demo-
cratic delegates to the Presidential
convention, and the six alternates
will be chosen at primaries, in spite
OF the effort OF certain District men
to prevent the holding Of primary
elections or conventions next year.
30 far as can be learned. the Dis
trict Democrats and Republicans haN .
not indicated any preference as to
Presidential candidates. A member
OF Congress who Is in close touch
with District politics says the local
Democrats may show a decided pref
erence for former Speaker Champ
Clark when their campaign opens up.
The District Democrats love Champ
Clark" he said. They stood by him
with the loyalty Of the Old Guard of
Napoleon in 49,, and I sincerely be-
heve they will do the same in 1890. I"
An important move has been made
by the Robert I. Miller Republicans
in regard to the coming primaries
OF that party. At a conference yes
terday 1t was announced that a plan
for the registration OF the voters
here has been submitted by H. A.
Clarke. of the Republican Interstate
League Of this city. to James 3.
