! TAKE the following from Glib
erty," the staunch and able advocate
of liberty Of conscience and freedom
of religious opinion. 1t is the in
herent right of every American cit
izen TO worship how and when he
pleases. or. il his conscience approve,
to honor his Creator by act rather
than formal devotion. No man is
justified in forcing his religious be-
lief upon his neighbor or in requiring
him to conform thereto. Laws to
that end are despotic and damnable.
Speaking of the present agitation for
a legally authorized Sabbath, the pa
per above named says;
The Sunday question is destined to
precipitate q greater crisis than this
nation has yet seen. One of two
things is inevitable-either the Con-
stitutional guarantees of civil and re-
ligious liberty and the total separa-
ton of church and state musfbe main
tanned, and the existing Sunday blue
laws be repealed, or these shackles of
religious bigotry and tyranny will
ultimately destroy our free republican
institutions. We cannot remain free
and for ever retain local religious
statutes enforced by the civil magi-
strates which override the Federal
Constitution and are absolutely hostile
to every guaranty of civil and relig-
ious freedom v~ouchsafed to the in
dividual citizen. We cannot contiDu-
ously override the Constitution with
out ultimately destroying all respect
for its provisions enacted in defense
of human rights. If the churches are
not driven out of politics, they will
finally controkthe state, and the hor-
rors of the Inquisition will be renew
ed, and the streams in America will
flow crimson with the blood of martyrs,
as did the streams of Europe under
the old regime of church and state
domination; for men who have hearts
that beat true and consciences that
will not finch, will die for their con-
victions, but they wilnever surrender
them. The inevitable product of a
legal religion is either hypocrisy or
persecution. 1t always has been, and
it never can be otherwise.

PUT a beggar or horseback and he
rides to death. Place a little mar in
a big position and he is a spectacle
for gods and men to look upon with
amazement and wonder. Our own
Missouri is experiencing, for its ulti'
mate good, let us hope, such an unto
ward condition. Let us abide, with
what patience we may, the i'll we have
provided for ourselves. That the in
nocent must suffer with the guilty is
one Of the mysteries attending the
guidance of the hand of an overruling
Providence. To the finite mind this
seems unjust, but misfortune some-
times holds hidden blessings. In Mis-
souri's case the future may make
amends for the present; but its con-
tract is . heavy one.

/ PUBLISH with pleasure and appro-
baton the following from an intelli-
gent and observant Missouri citizen:
'.During the late unpleasantness at
Jefferson City, when the Republican
legislature made itself notorious with
the most colossal lot of expense and
graft-creating laws ever conceived in
the minds of men, the thirty-eight
Democratic members of the House
ceased their vigilance in fighting for
the rights of the common herd. Chief
amongst these immortelles was Repre-.
sentative Redmond Black of Iron
County. He was sound, safe and
sensible on all matters of legislation
He courageously and consistently op.
posed all the tax~-creating and JOHN
creasing measures. Hismerits SHOULD
be enshrined in the hearts of every
citizen of his county. His constitu-
ents owe him a debt of political graft
tude."

MISSOURI STATE JOURNAL: Sand
it is the Republican County Court of

ssfull valuation assessment of the
Board and to add the heavy increase
placed by the Board on farm lands.
The revolt of the County Courts won't
