100 Years AGO

Slavery burned fiercely as
an issue century ago, char
ring and buckling political
platforms of the very ones
who famed the flames. The
Star, warm under the collar
itself at the growing conf1a-
grafton, observed on April is,
1860: The Republican press
throughout the non-slave-
holding States are shivering
over the result of the recent
Connecticut and Rhode Is
land State elections. Well
they may, because they en-
brace proof positive that
the conservative elements
of Northern society are at
length awakening to realize
the fact that unless the spirit
of political abolitioniSm be
speedily stayed, the days of
the confederacy are num-
bered. No other two States
of the Union are more deeply
or Immediately interested in
the security and prosperity
of property in slaves than
those two. Every man, wom-
an and child in them profits
directly or indirectly in the
proceeds of slave labor in the
South. well nigh as much as
the population does where
slaves labor. Fighting
the bugbear of slavery ex-
tension on the part of New
England. therefore, is simply
struggling to knife the source
of her own prosperity, for
the sake of cherishing a SEN
timental idea instilled in her
masses by designing dema-
gogues for sinister political
ends. This is the key to
the near-thrashing in Con-
necticut and the very sound
thrashing in Rhode Island
the Republicans caught. ;"
What did it cost to cam
paign for a seat in Congress
100 years ago? A squabble
between two New York can
dioates threw some light on
this matter. The Star Of April
II. 1860, noted: The follow
ing bill for expenses was
rendered by the Republican
candidate for Congress in
Horace Clark's New York
City district for Mr.. Clark
to pay before he Cthe Repub-
hcan) would decline in his

Is Years AGO

The ubiquitous free-swing-
ing practice swing" golfer
was born 25 years ago. The
Star of April 18. 1895. an
nounced the blue book" on
golf had been amended to
permit the golfer to take a
practice swing any place, any
time, on the course. For
years" the story said. there
has been a provision in the
rules that player may take
a practice stroke on the tee,
provided the stroke was taken
more than a clubs length
from the ball and did not
bend or break anything fixed
or growing Now a prac-
tice stroke may be taken any
place on the course if the
player in so doing does not
remove irregularities Of sur
face. This is intended to re-
move the quaint idea in the
minds of some old-fashioned
folks that when they get in
the deep rough. they can take
club scythe fashion and in a
series Of practice swings NOW
down the grass so the ball
can be hit cleanly :"

Follows Leader

Our magazines, newspapers
and commentators give dire
warnings because we are not
fully armed and because we
are somewhat behind Russia
scientifically. 1t is to be
hoped that our President has
better guidance. and that he
is not swayed from his pres
ent direction. The writer's
and speakers advocate, gen.
orally, a speed-up in arma-
ment, so as to overtake
Russia. Also, when negotia-
tions are begged down, they
suggest that we break off
discussions until Russia gives
in" somewhat.
What can they really ex-
pect from such tactics? To
overtake Russia involves an
arms race and then a war.
1t can end in no other way.
To break off discussions will
cause further diplomatic de-
terioration. This, too, must
end in war, because such a
break in diplomatic relations
must trigger an arms race,
if nothing else does.
And, of course, we would
be most naive to disarm.
1t appears that the Presi-
dent has found the right
trail. 1t is simply one of being
armed enough to deter ag-
gression. BY remaining slight
ly behind Russia, we are not
pushing her to speed up nor
are we weakening ourselves
so as to be overpowered.
Although the President dis
counts summit conferences,
he does not cut off negotia-
tions, as was done in Korea.
Is all of this too much wis
dom for our wise men to
understand?

SPIRES OF THE SPIRIT
Deaths Other Side
BY DIR. FREDERICK BROWN HARRIS
Chaplain Of the United States Senate


ed footprints of One who is
riding forth to die. But We
journey by His side today be-
cause He was not stopped
when His dead body hung on
two crossed beams of wood.
If after His brief SO years the
cross had been the end for
Him, what we call Lent would
never have been observed.
The events leading up to that
ride into His nations capital
at the great Feast Of the
Passover would not have been
recorded-let alone live for
1000 years.
The fact is that the radi-
ance which floods these sa-
cred weeks comes from be-
yond the cross. After men
had done their worst, the
Rider rode on to the other
side of death. The supreme
revelation of Lent plus the
third day is that the 40 days
before the cross and the 40
days after the tomb are both
parts of life. The here and
the hereafter are one. What
we often enormously call the
life to come is joined with
out a break to the life that
is. The startling realization
which filled the first disciples
with joyous awe and Smote
them to their knees at the
sheer unbelievable wonder of
it was that they were already
living the risen life. They
already had eternal life and
were breathing the elixir Of
its air.
1t meant that mankind is
not doomed to perish in the
stuffy room of mortality but
has an escape into eternity.
Browning was living in the
rapturous implications of the
living Christ when he wrote
ecstatically, Leave now for
apes. Man has forever"
This poet-prophet wrote all
of his glorious cadences of
the unfettered spirit in the
Here. But the knowledge
with which he and all who
across the ages have run
from a spoiled and beaten
grave is the glad news that
changes everything, that the
here and the hereafter are
Joined by God in a union
that no man may dare put
aSunder.
There are those who say
that they are so engrossed
with what lies on this side
of death that they propose
just to live one life at a
time-and then, when there
comes the one clear call, to
meet the unknown and the
unseen with cheer. That
may sound noble and heroic.
But that attitude robs the
Here of its true and glorious
significance. 1t means that
one stands on but a tiny
fragment of the totality of
life-the part measured by
calendars and clocks. Accept
ing only the now, Lawyer
Clarence Darrow declared:
THE outstanding part of
human life is its utter fu-
tility. The most satisfactory
part of life is the time spent
in sleep when one is oblivious
to existence" That dismal
dirge comes from the one
World-at-a-time philosophy.
1t is when the here is iso-
lated from the hereafter that
for so many existence takes
on the drab hues of futility,
boredom and Illustration.
The good news of the Risen
One who speaks His "All
Hail. from the other side of
death offers not wings to
fly to some beautiful isle of
somewhere but, rather, shoes
to walk all over God's Heaven,
whose glorieS start on this
side of death. One of those
glorieS is that when the here

so Years Ago

Prominent and wealthy
Thomas F. Walsh. father of
Evalyn Walsh Mclean, died
in his Massachusetts avenue
mansion half a century ago.
In reviewing the mining
magnate's career, The Star
on April 9, 1910, had this to
say: Much of Mr.. Walsh's
income was due to the yellow
Bird mine in Colorado. He
used the symbol of the yellow
bird a great deal, and it was
to be found among his seals
and stationery. There is a
current story in Leadville as
to the location of the Yellow
Bird claim. Mr.. Walsh, not
then the national figure that
he afterward became, was out
hunting and prospecting He
had not had much luck either
way all day, and when turn
ing homeward shot at a
yellow bird that was in a
bush on the trail. He got
the bird and the charge of
shot, ploughing up the side
Of the bank, unearthed the
lead that afterward made the
Yellow Bird one of the great
producing mines of the
West :"
