Lots of Preacher Killers -
In World, but Efforts
Must Be Futile, Says the
Rev. DR.. John E. Briggs.
Preaching at Fifth Bap-
tist Church.

Affirming his belief in the eternal
vigor of the Church of Christ as a
vital principle for which no other
theology or philosophy may be sub
stituted. the Rev. Dr. John E. Briggs
discussed The Sure Foundation of
the Believer" in his sermon yester-
day morning at Fifth Baptist
Church.
"A disease common to ministers is
preachers sore throat" declared
DR.. Briggs. but do not know that
young Timothy was afflicted with
this ailment. Rather than preach
ers' sore throat he had preachers
sore heart In Old Testament times
there were 'prophet-killers' in
modern times there are preacher
killers Some of these preacher
killers were members of the church
at Ephesus and they had young
Timothy on the run.
Paul Sends Encouragement.
Paul. the aged, hears of Tim
othy's troubles and writes him a
letter of cheer and comfort, saying,
The foundation of God standeth
sure
I'm the last few years many
things have fallen away. Govern
ments, thrones and dominions have
fallen like Winters leaves before a
raging wind. The governments of
Russia, Austria and Germany are
gone. Some things have been
changed and others will be changed
for the worse and others for the
better.
Many are the false philosophers
and heresies of the present day, and
many creeds are Offering themselves
as substitutes for Christ and the
Cross. 1t is claimed that the
Church has failed and we know
that Christianity is secuted in the
name of science.
Times Might BE Worse.
But things are not so bad as
some would have US believe. There
is always lots of dead wood around
tion of God always standeth sure.
These are critical times. but the
time of the fall of the Roman EN-,
pire, the Protestant Reformation
and the French Revolution seemed
equally critical.
This is a time of readjustment,
but God and truth and the true
church will remain. The grass
the flower fadeth, but the
word of our God endureth forever +"

Better Nation Depends on
Development Of Noble
Thoughts Into Action,
Declares Rev. DIR. Her
bert F. Randolph, at
Foundry M. E. Church.

Americans must cultivate noble
thoughts and transmute them into
the actions of their daily lives II We
are to have "A Better America for
Better Americans" the Rev. DR.
Herbert F. Randolph told his con-
gregation at Foundry Methodist
Episcopal Church last night. His
subject was The Sources OF Our
, National Prosperity" the first of a
series of illustrated lectures on pat
riotic subjects.
abraham Lincoln once said" DR..
Randolph declared, Back of every
great soul. art, law, and liberty,
stands a great man Therefore, the
real business of this republic is the
manufacture of souls of good quail
ity.'
Thought Source of All Things.
Every great thing in the uni
verse was first of all a Thought. Our
Declaration of independence is our
fathers thought about personal lib
erty. Lincoln's immortal speech at
Gettysburg is what he thought
about soldiers who lived and died
that the American governme mt
should not perish from the earth.
The American constitution is what
Washington and Hamilton thought
was the best way to safeguard the
life, liberty and property of Ameri-
can citizens.
"As we think, so We are. There
fore the way to make the country
prosperous is to grow men apd
women who have noble thoughts and
who can put these wise and beauti-
full thoughts into the books they
write; the pictures they paint; the
laws they pass, and the lives they
live. Back of every achievement
stands a strong man. First get your
hero and then the republic will fol-
low of necessity.
No Limit To Achievement.
in this republic every youth
must decide for himself what will
be his vocation, and once he has
decided the history of this republic
shows that there is no limit to the
possibilities of his advance"
DIR. Randolph declared that labor
is helpless without ability and spoke
of the menace of the parasite in in
dustry.
In conclusion he said: "A high
civilization is a granary that can
be filled to overlooking only when
all the workers unite their pros
perity to the prosperity of the
whole. The true source of national
greatness is not in tools nor laws,
but, rather in the souls Of high
quality"

A TINE WORN ALBI

From tho Carl1sburg Telegram
The Socialist candidate for gov
ernor in his speeches devotes the
opening chapters to excuslng him
self for traltorism to the party
that fed and clothed him for a
quarter Of century. His excuse
is that he was cheated out OF the
Republican nomination. He re-
mouths the charges with which
the public 10 familiar, and which
the public knows he failed to
prove. Like Cox and his charges,
Montgomery made his and disap-
peared from the state and Its
courts which were open to him, as
Cox disappeared from localities as
remote from the Senate inyesti-
eating committee as he could be-
take himself, Time and events
have shown to the public mind
that there was no more truth in
Montgomery's charges than there
was in Cox'S. But they are the
only reasons Montgomery has to
offer the public why 1t Is that he
is now appealing for their votes
as u Socialist whereas, prior to
the twenty-fIith day OF last May,
he was appealing TO them for their
votes as a Republican. Montgom-
cry, seeing that the public Is bored
with his alibI, cannot chuck 1t, be-
cause he has no excuse to sub
stitue for 1t. He must go on max
>Qg it to the miserable end.
There was n saying much in
rogue prior to 1912 that Fate was
IN league with the Republican par
ty. From that year to this. the
signs were that the partnership
had ben dissolved. 1t would seem
that 1t is q going firm once more,
and that the defeat of Montgomery
In last Mays primary in West Viz
ginta was o forecast that the part
nsrship was being resumed on the
national scale. For, Us 1t is plain
to all now, Fate was kind and did
its full share by the Republican
party when Montgomery failed in
his goal in the primary. 1t has
been since shown that his repub-
licanism was not such to stand a
hard blow, no more than his sports
manship was strong enough to
bear up the supreme test. His Re-
publicanism proved to be no more
than thing coating over a very
solid Socialism.
A kind Providence never intend
ed that such ! deceptive campaign
as the one he made for the Repub-
lican nomination should fool a ma
jority OF the party voters. 1t gen
orally turns out that the maker of
false pretenses is caught. 1t was
SO in his case. Fate showed up
his hand; disclosed him to his true
coIors. And he stands exposed.
Opponents Of a Socialized state
government who say they see in
him anything other than fate now
shows hi INTO be, are made as
blind by their prejudice or their
