Every now and then this countty is wppalied by the horrible acts of lynching purtles who underiake bring about respect for other laws by deliberately Violating law and order themselves. In oiher words they hope by their criminal ets to impress upon those Who are in- variably weaker mentally the fact that laws must be obeyed. There are waves of lynchings the same s there are waves of other crimes, but Lhe extent to which they have been car- vied on is well disclosed by the figures hat presented to a congresgional sommittee condueting hearthge relative 19 legislation for the prevention of lynch- Ings. According to figures there have been 3,081 lynchings iwenty years ending with last year. e prevailed regard and Americans Myes have no for where many bee he were Those lynched were not subjects of siher countries, but residents of the inited States, but they were denied their rights’ just as much as the Ameri- tgn citizens whe were shot down in Mex- leo failed to get the protection that was dge them. in years there were lynchings in 41 Mates but the great bulk of them were In the southern three states, Georgia, Minsissipp! and Texat having nearly 1109 of them. There is of course no defense for such lawlessness, and It is evident that lynch Jaw has not put an end to the crimes Which it is supposed to deal with. The Yact is that such mob rule is due to' a Jrge cxtent to race hatmed.

Someone asked Billy Sunday why the | churches were not having revivals all the | time. [lis reply was: “For the same| reason that a man doesp’t spend all his time in 4 bathtub, although he needs it frequently.” The answer was’a good one. The revival, as the name implies, must be the occasional. The apple tree does not blossom all the year round; neither do the birds sing. The farmer does not garner his grain for twelve consecutive months. He must plow, fer- tilize, and cultivate hefore he reaps. There is much in a fisherman's life be- sides hauling in the drag net. Church life revels in variety like nature herself. If the world’s geography were nothing but tablelands; however lofty. the earth would be nothing but one continuous Sa- hara. There must be mountains, valleys and swamps if there are rivers support- ing industries. The church revival to be effective must be the occasional. To be shouting “Hosapna” all the time would bring on laryngitis. Theodore Roosevelt did ene thing when president ‘that was sneered at in some diplomatic circles as “Sunday sehool tac- tics’ And that was the return of our share of the Boxer indemnity to®hina. A missionary explained the matter to Roosevelt, and with his vigorous intell gence and quickness of execution the in- cident was closed to China's amazed sat- isfaction. It was a square deal that had 2 meney value and something more— Ching’s good will. The money thus re- turned has established a preparXtory school of high grade for students in Peking wishing to enter American col- leges. It is China's monument to The Great American. Last week s paragraph these talks that probably needs slight modification. It was the one referring to Jachin and Boaz, twin pillars in Solomon’s temple. There are three references to these pillars in the Bible, IT Chron. 2: 14- 17; 4: 13, and I Kings 7: 13-22. In the first two no allusion is made to the ma- terial of these pillars; in the first it is plainly stated that they were made of brass. So that in the sentence “when he saw those two massive stone pillars,” ete. probably it would be more correct appeared in sub- stitute the word “brass”.for “stone.” This minor correction, = however, does not change the evident teaching: that it lacked in comnleteness until beauty was added to strength.

With Our Presidents Copyright 1920—By James Morgan GREATEST POPULAR REFERENDUM 1IN HISTORY 1896—June, McKinley neminated for President by the Republican National Convention at St Louis. November, Elected. Alntough William McKinby was des- cribed by his opponments as “a statesman with his ear to the ground,” he failed to hear the warning rumble of the mighty conflict of forces which was {o| shake the parties and the country to| their foundtaion in the approaching | campaign of 1896, the most exciting in our politfeal history. Until that great battle between gold and silver was full upon him, McKinley looked forward to a one-sided contest on the tariff ques- tion and an easy victory for himself as “the advance agent of prosperity” and the herald of “the full dinner pail.” Protection had been his specialty, and country. On the subject of the gold naturally he preferred to prescribe his own favorite panacea for the flls of the standard, he was rather lukewarm, having started out in congress as a free silver man and having voted afterward for all compromise silver legislation. Republican leaders generally and par- ticularly those west of the Aleghenies dreaded to take a stand for go dlin 1896. They had been timidly straddling the question for twenty years and throwing sops' to the silver sentiment, and they rank now from squarely facing the issue. The Ohio” state convention nominated McKinley in March on an meaningless platform. On the eve of the St. Louis convention in Jume, he drafted for the the National platform a money plank which warily shunned the word gold. Even after the convention had cast this aside and nominated him for president on a flat declaration for the gold standard ll, M.
