William Jennings Bryan by invita-
ton addressed the Kentucky Legis-
lature a few days ago. One of the
subjects dwelt upon very forcefully
was that of teaching the theory OF
evolution in our schools and colleges
The question already has been agitat-
ed in Kentucky because Darwinism is
taught at the University of Kentucky
and quite a protest has gone up. Mr..
Bryan condemned in the most convinc-
ing manner the danger of teaching the
young people this far-fetched and un-
christian theory. The manner in which
his argument was received showed
that the legislative body was with him
in this important matter. A bill has
been introduced to prohibit the teach
ing of this doctrine and it is expected
to pass.
We heard student at the Kentuc-
ky University tell few months ago
of a young man there who had become
so confused by this subject and so abb
sorbed in 1t that he was thought to be
on the verge of insanity. The declara-
lions of the Bible as to the origin OF
man and other important subjects find
no place in a great percentage of our
schools and colleges. 1t is not even
fair to young people to permit these
conditions to continue.

personal Liberty" is the favorite
text of the liquor advocate When a
wet man makes a speech on this
screaming theme he does not always
mention prohibition, but most every
body suspects what he is driving at
There is no such thing as personal
liberty, nor can there be, in a sense
broad enough to justify the liquor bus
mess. In savage lands is found the
nearest approach to the liquor mans
dream of personal liberty; yet the saw
age, free from the bonds of written
law, is restrained by fear from tramp
ling under foot the rights of others.
His personal liberty is curtailed.
Civilized peoples meet and agree up
on what is best for their communities.
and we call these agreements laws"
They agree that certain things which
interfere with the peace and happi-
ness of the community are crimes, and
penalties are fixed.
They agree that murder must be
prevented If possible, or punished by
death or other severe means when 1t
occurs. Personal liberty Is abolished,
growls the murderer, Sf
Robbery cannot be tolerated. ac-
cording to the civilized peoples view.
The robber cries, you are taking away
my personal liberty" M
The libertine finds his path blocked
and his personal liberty abolished by
severe laws that either prevent or
punish.
The moonshiner finds 1t hard to sub
nit to the laws that take away what
he chooses to call his personal liberty.
Likewise, the bootlegger may say he
has been robbed of his personal liberty
by the agreement reached by the peo-
pie, through their majority form Of
expression.
And, so on through all the list OF
agreements or laws made in every
country where government exists. And
amongst the uncivilized, the savage is
held back by the knowledge that II he
runs counter to a more powerful saw
age he will pay an awful penalty
these are the restraints that wipe out
personal liberty for him.
Who will say these laws are not
Justified? Who will say our country
could exist IL 1t permitted the prac-
tice of personal liberty? Who win de-
ny the tight " Searcn e'eiyWhele al
murderer or any other criminal per-
sor or thing.
II there be no such thing as absolute
personal liberty, then how shall we
arrive at solution of the great ques-
ton OF just where to draw the line?
What other OF better authority does
a republic have on such matters than
the will OF the majority?
Personal liberty is denied to all by
the laws Of God and man.
DO not be fooled by personal lib
erty' bait. It may look like a worm,
but 1t is a snake.

Senator Whitaker has introduced
into the Kentucky Legislature bill to
make the burglary of a residence pun
tshable by death. This should become
= law. The burglar enters residence
prepared TO kill any or all of the in
mates If necessary to get away with
their valuables. II is one of the most
deliberate and premeditated crimes
that can be committed. The victims
are taken wholly unawares and usually
have no chance to defend thepseives
In addition to having their Valuables
taken away from them they must for
felt their lives If they resist the eff
fort. The intention of the burglar is
clear. He is the worst type of Grim
iinal and deserves the extreme penalty,
because. before forcing his way into a
residence he necessarily has planned
to commit murder of men, women and
children.
