THE BAHAI MESSAGE
RELIGION MUST BE THE CAUSE OF
UNITY AMONG MANKIND.

A"ioN MUST BE The CAOSE Or
UNITY AMONG MANKIND.
Every religion is the greatest
divine effulgence, the cause of
life amongst men, the cause of
the honor Of humanity, and is
productive of life everlasting
amongst humankind. Religion
IS not for enmity or hatred. 1t is
not for tyranny or injustice. If
religion be the cause of enmity
and rancor, if it should prove
the cause OF alternating men, as
suredH non-religion would be
better. For religion and the
teachings which appertain to it
are as course. of treatment.
What is the object of any course
OF treatment? 1t is cure and
healing. But if the outcome of
a course of treatment should be
productive Of mere diagnosis
and discussion of symptoms, the
abolition of it is evidently pre-
ferable. In this sense, abandon
ing religion would he a step to-
ward unity.
RELIGION MUST BE IN ACCORD
WITH SCIENCE AND REASON
Religion must be reasonable
it must agree perfectly with
science, so that science shall
sanction religion and religion
sanction science. The two must
be brought together, indissolu-
bly,, in reality. Down to the
present day it has been custo-
mary for man to accept a thing
because it was called religion
even though it were not in &C.
cord with human reason.

j. J. n. CONNER ADDRESS,

To my good friends and custo-
mers of the Hilliard territory:
/ take this method of assuring
you that it grieves me deeply
that business conditions make
it necessary for me to discon-
tinue business at billiard at this
time, but it seems necessary, as
l feel that a general store in the
country should be owned and
conducted throughout by one

customers go in the store and
deal with one person for all their
needs.
l sold part of my stock at
billiard to my brother nearly a
year ago and since that time he
has owned one part of the store
and l have owned the other, and
it seemed to be confusing to the
customers to have to come to the
store and transact one part of
their business with one person
and then take up the other part
of their business with the other
party. 1t seemed to me that this
made it Very incOnvenient tt

IT appears from the testimony Of
many naturalists that the lome-

nests Of ants, much as cows live with
man. On the sides Of their abdomens
they have many unicellular glands
that secrete a fluid that the ants
like as much as we like cows milk.

CONFERENCE
Settlement of Shantung
ard "Speres of InAu-
ence" Questions To Be
Next Important Step
Resolution Offered By
u. S. Members

Washington, Jan. 1S.-Extended
discussion of the American proposal
to apply more effectually" the prin-
ciple of the open door in China was
begun today when the far eastern
committee of the arms conference
met to resume consideration of the
subject.
,. Revised at the sage ln OF, the
British delegation to provide for an
International board of reference to
review present and future concessions
to determine whether they conflict
with the open door policy as re-de-
fined in the original draft of the reso-
luton presented by Secretary Hughes.
the proposal already has been given
the approval of that delegation "as
it stands while the delegates of Italy
have announced adherence in princi-
pie.
The resolution, briefly, would bind
the represented powers not to seek
special spheres Of influence in China
concessions, nor monopoies which
would abridge the right of the people
of all nations to the principle of equal
economic and commercial opportun-
ity, while China on her part would
undertake to cooperate in maintain
ing that equality.
Although Baron Shidehara, for ia
pan, expected accord with the gen.
eral principles" embodied. he reserved
judgment pending opportunity for
more thorough examination of the
proposal. For the French delegation,
NJ. Sarraut while indicating with the
other spokesman acceptance of the
provisions re-defining the open door
principle and setting up the interna-
tional board of reference. seriously
questioned the practicability of the
provision in Articles w whereby ex-
listing concessions may be submitted
to the board for possible adjustment
if they appeared inconsistent with the
open door principles set forth.
NJ. Saurraut said he felt this pro-
vision might result in existing rights
being compromised and contended it
would mean introduction of the prin-
ciples of retroactiyity of revision
which had mot before been admitted
to a recognized legal status" He
said it would be necessary to study
the probable effect of the article more
carefully before reaching final de-
cision.
The Shantung negotiations, mean
time were continued today by the ia
panese and Chinese delegates while
completion of the naval treaty still
awaited solution of the Pacific for
tifications problem, despite receipt by
the Japanese of partial instructions
from Toxic.

COMMISSIONERS
DECIDE ON BOND
ISSUE E$lOO,OOO
This Sum Needed To Care For To-
tai Scattered Indebtedness Of
Over $4,000

The city commissioners in an ad-
iourned session Monday considered
the matter of the city's scattered in
debtedness, much of which is OF long
standing, and decided to call a bond
election for 100000 to take care OF
this indebtedness and allow the city
to carry on it's future business on
cash basis.
This problem has stared each ad-
ministration in the face with in
creased persistence and it was felt
that. since it must be met sooner or
later the sooner the better. AFTER
consultation with Lakelands four n
nancial institutions the present soiu'
ton was arrived at.
Lakeland owes something over S9O,-
900, including both the general fund
and the light and water fund. and tax
ing into consideration both the notes
at the banks and the outstanding
hills for salaries and for supplies or
various kinds. A bond issue of the
face value of 10000 is considered
necessary to take care Of this indebt-
edness.
With these facts before them, the
commissioners acted favorably on an
ordinance providing for the calling OF
the election and the issuance OF the
bonds. subject to the ratification OF
the voters. AS usual, because OF an
ambiguity in the law, it is necessary
to have the vote Of both the free
holders and the electors. However. II
is planned to hold the elections at the
same time, and February 3 has been
set as election day.
The bonds are to bear per cent
interest, payable semi-annually, the
first of the series to fall due in 1882
which date will allow the city to pay
of the heaviest part OF its present
bonded Indebtedness.
BY the proposed bond issue. the city
will be cleared Of any Indebtedness
except that represented by bonds, and

or Petteway, plan to conduct the fu'
ture business. Of the city on a cash
basis, taking advantage of cash prices
