SpELLBNDERS AT PRAYER

In another column upon this page,
VIII be found an editorial from the
Hrgo Daily News commenting upon
the proposed innovation in politics
which calls for opening political meet
ings with prayer.
While we agree in the main, with
the editor Of the News and with him
believe that prayer will not hurt
any who may assemble at political
meetings, Democratic, Republican or
Socialist-the two latter especially
yet we can but feel that prayer Of
fered by anyone who processes Chris
tian!ty to a concourse of politicians,
will be loves labor lost, while offer
ed by anyone other than Chris
tian it would be, all must admit
sacrilegious
Now, prayer is always good
thing-good for the living man and
not bad for the dead. But prayer 10
pe effective should, We believe, be
offered in spirit Of true belief and
listened to with due reverence by all
present.
To open the average political meet
ing with prayer would be fallacy'
ineffective and lacking in the true
Spirit of Goodness which should be
present at all times with those who
pray and with those who are prayed
for.
We remember not so very many
years ago as men count time after
they have passed the meridian of life,
we remember when a gifted re-
rorter Of a ST. Louis paper, special
correspondent at the Missouri state
legislature, at jefferson City, "h'isted
a few and then sent wire TO his
paper TO the effect that the biggest
poker game in the state of Missouri
was opened, regularly, with prayer"
The telegraph editor wrote a scare
head, double indented the news" and |
payed it up on page one, and every |
preacher in the city of ST. Louis
took rap at jefferson City in his |
Sunday sermon.
Investigation, however, proved the I
citizens II jefferson City to be as
good and as God-fearing as are the
usual run Of people VINO inhabit the |
usual run OF towns. Further inves-
tigation showed that the reporter had .
referred TO the opening OF the house /
and senate Of the Missouri legisla-
ture with prayer delivered by chap
lains who sought each morning, at So
per year to regenerate the souls
OF the Legislators
or course the special correspondent
lost his lob, bu; the truth remained.
the truth that the convocation OF
those legislative bodies with pre-
l!minary invocation to D!ety smacked
OF the irreligious
OF course the sinners should be
prayed for. Il IS the sacred mission
Of the men OF Cod to petition the
throne Of Grace to save all the sin
ncrs, individually and collectively, but
without though; OF being ourselves
disrespectful Of lacking in religious
sentiment, we can but think that the
prayer which may be offered to high
heaven Immediately before the de-
livery OF the average campaign speech,
may never get higher than the roof,
and be. therefore destined to wander
about for all time midst the dust and
cobwebs OF the rafters.
We would not say that the soul Of
the average politician does not need
praying for, but we do believe, in
order tha, the prayers said In his
behalf may be efficaolous, they should
be delivered with a club, the patti
ent" locked in the closet, with plenty

BATTLE |SEXPECTED WHEN.
 OILERS MEET MESA

The major league" season of the Salt River valley will be formally opened in Phoenix Sunday afternoon. when the Standard Oil company team of this city opposes the Mesa Inde pendents in game at the former field at Nineteenth avenue and Fillmore street. The game is scheduled to start at 2:30 o'clock.
 The Oilers realize that they will be obliged to play at top speed to dupli cate their victory of last Sunday over the Gateway City gang. which played about as fast an article of baseball as any team in the state. They appre- ciate that Dame Fortune smiled in their direction last Sunday and that old man Good Luck stuck to them last Sundays game was to 5, the local players being held scoreless after the first inning.
 Duke Cross will be on the mound for the Oilers tomorrow afternoon with Lyall doing the backStopping. Me Gowan is scheduled to do the flinging for the visitors with his famous bat tery mate, Shumway, supporting him.
 The teams are as evenly matched as any two teams could be, as was evil denced in their first meeting last Sun day which was a nip and tuck affair from start to flnlSh, even more so than the to 3 score would indicate, for both pitchers hurled themselves out of numerous difficult positions
 Cross has been doing some good mound work for the Oilers of late. and will be in tiptop shape for Sundays game McGowan can also be relied upon to serve up a bunch of foolers.
 The new Standard oil company field is said to be one of the best ever pro- vided in this city. The company has gone to considerable expense in fitting ihe diamond up for its employees and for the convenience Sr fans who wish to attend games. It is located at Nine teenth avenue and Fillmore street easily reached from the West Wash ington street car line. Leave the car at Nineteenth avenue and walk two blocks west.
