THE CLERGY AND POLITICS

Speaking Of the rumor that Rev John L. Davis, pastor of Trinit! Methodist church Of this city. might be tendered the republican nomination for the office of mayor. a representa- tiv7 Of the Civic Safety League of this city says: If Mr. Davis is nominated by either Of the old parties I thinl, there will be quite a civic movement for him. 1T there is any civic move- ment at the old primaries I presume we would be glad 10 sec something done for him"
 Without quibbing over the phrase ology of the statement that the Civic League would be glad to see some thing done for him." thus implying that the League would be doing some thing for the clergyman personally, and not for the city; and without dis cussing in any way Mr. Davis qualti- cations for the post, but rather putting personalities entirely aside, the gen. cral comment may be made that q minister's worst enemy could think of nothing more calculated to destroy his usefulness in his sacred calling than 10 encourage him in an attempt to assume the duties Of public office, such as the mayoralty in q city like New Britain.
 Admit, with the deepest sincerity, that it would be a splendid thing if all the high minded men of the com munity were to take more active in- terCst in politics than they do today, and admit that much Of the corrup- ton Of politics comes from the fact tnot evident in New Britain, however, that men who are corrupt at heart go into this field for what they can get out Of it nevertheless it would be a terrible blow to the ministry were members of that splendid calling to take time from their real duties of in- tcrprctine as best they may after long thought, the problems of life for the benefit and the bcttermen of those who have to look 10 them for advice in moments of mental and spiritual anguish.
 1T, indeed, no man may serve two masters. certainly no clergyman may serve his God sincerely without giving to thought of Him and His teachings all the power that is in him and, in the intimacy or the sacred places where men gu to seek inspired strength, trying 10 bring practical un- derstanding of those teachings to men and women less versed in things spiritual, men and women who, in lifes struggle. have no opportunity to see clearly the sometimes faint line between the right and the wrong. Glorious would it be to bring the teachings or Jcnsus Christ into the management oI city affairs, but awful would bo the void in the soul Of many 6 man and woman were they 10 be de- prived of even ii portion of the spirit ual comfort and strength they receive, conscious, as they should be, that the man to whom they appeal has but one purpose in life--to bring Gods ...f.s. ,c tbri, F7Ea rfs
