I men were such as Franklin and Jefferson and Washington and their friends. But at the same time there was also auother man in Sngland who did not come here until the revolution had begun to be whispered 1u_the air, though as yet not broken forth. This onage was the well known Thomas >aine, than whom no other man, perhaps, has been so unjustly libeled sioce'his death. Washington said of him that the American colonies owed him a debt of gratitude, for to him more than any one, in Washinglon’s opinion, did the peoplo owe the impulse to strive for liberty, These prominent figures in the history of this " nation—W Franklin avd Jefferson—were tho freest of thinkers, and all the wild efforts of interested persons since then have not been able to show them as only church going pious souls, but solely as men who lived justly and did right in the eyes of meu and the sight of the one God in whom they believed. Certainly as to Paine and Franklin it is clear that they were liberal aud wholly untrammeled by any church or priest. These men, with their friends and support ers, established the United States on a foot: ing of absolute freedom from dogmatic in. terferonce, and as a revolt against tvranny They took care to leaye God out of thocon stitution—and why! For the reason that every man_has his own conception of that Boing, and 1f God were mentioned in that great Instrument, then bigots and sectari would enforce their notion of God on every one else, drawing theit supreme warrant from the constitution, Aud so thegreat things, many of them hunting forever forthe missing link whether it bo between thcu[’lo and man, or between the mineral and the vegetable more highly orgunized. But with karma and reincamation the link appes may be without any visible representative, but plaialy seen as 4 philosophical conception. And in the great question of the evolution of man as a reasoning being all doubts disup- pear at once when we master the theosophi- calidea of his origin and destiny. Theosophy dors not deny evolution but asserts a reasor- able one, It shows man as comng up through every form from tho very lowest know: science, and postulates for him a desti muen higher und greater than any permitted to him by cither church ov science thatthe ben of comparison gives up the task. But t goes further than science, as the human nowad--the immortal spark-according to thosophy, comes out of the eternitics, and in each evolutionary course it emerges upon the plane of matter as we kuow it in the form of an immaterial (if we may say so about that which although invisibloto our sight is still matter) being called by some an clemental and by others a spirit. But of these things more at another timo.

A number of the party sut in the smoking apartment of ono car as the train rolled into Roancke, Va,, which has moro than doubled in population since it be- came apparect that the republicans in con- gress intended to keep their promise and re- vise the tariff upon their party platform lines, Senator Hawloy, who 1is one of the most sterling republicans 1n the country turned to the author of the present tariff law and said : “*Virginia is a republican state now. Such maryelous amprovement could only come from republican effort. I have never soen anythiug like it in a domocratic community. These hundreds of beautiful brick and stone buildings and factories for the manufacture of iron and wooden articles and this develop- ment of fron and coal mines must be the handiwork of republican enterprise, Before the war, when the stato was demo- cratic beyond question, we saw nothlug of this kind,” Now Virginia shows as much hum of industry in proportion to Yo[mlnlmn as Pennsylvania ever did-—that 1s in” republican localitles, for there are republican aud demo- ceratic strongholds in the stato." ‘es," sald Major McKinley, “Virginia is & republican state.

Aud he instanced Philadel- phia fo show what demoralization manufac- tories h upon towns, The democratic party of Virgiuia clung to those doctrines till the republicans of the horth forced them out with protective princip! “Yes,” replied General Hooker, reflect- ively, and sighing as the facts feil upon him, “but Jobu Randolph said one thing which was true and which should have immortal- ized him. It should have made lm very great. Hesaid that if wo want to keep a man great we should never go in half a mile of him.” e Chattanooga at the clection last fall gave a fair exemplification of what a people can do in political frenzy to tear down their best in- terests, politically, morally and financially. The city of Chattanooga has grown beyond all caleulation during the past decade. When the battlo was fou¢ht under the clouds on Lookout Mountain, twenty-eight years ago, Chattanooga was ' but 1,500 in population. Ten years ago it had grown to be a plodding city of 10,000 or & littie over. Fivo years ago the republican spirlt which mado eastern Tennessee one of the greatest boons the union had in 1561 came to the front. It clected a city government for Chattanooga, douned enterprise, and she is today a city of about fifty thousaud population. It is a little Pittsburg iu all the term implies. H. Clay Evans, one of tho most storling republicans and best business men in the country, was sent to congress. He got appropriations forimproving the navi- gation of the Tennessoe river which have made it a splendid channei of commorce. He got uppropriations for & magnificent stone public building, where the postofice and cus- tom houso are to balocated. He secured the adoption of a bill to buy all of the ground on which are located the battle fields of Look- out mountain, Chicamauga, Mission Ridge, ote., and they are to be converted intoa groat national park. e gave tho entire congres- sional district a national standing and pres- tige and such enterprise as is being shown under his influcnee now was not drempt of four yoars ago. Hemade for Chattanooga a nawe here and throughout the country, from which the property owners are reaping finan- clal reward: Heury Clay Ev voted for the election bill. The rebelling spirit of the peoyle arose. He was defeated. An inexperieaced man was elected, who under the canditions can do nothing for his constityents. Chattunooga in a word, and the distriet together, did in the nawmo of prejudice whut it will take years to congress in the place of a democratand gets more hotels she will ba on the road to perfect prosperity. It is the best point in the United States toduy for a large, first-class botel. ‘The present hotel eapacity is inefii- cientand inferior to demands, The develop- ment of iron and coal industries under the vew tariff faw is simply marvelous, It can- not be described on paper.

When the tarilt was last revised, for many years prior Lo this congress, the successful measure was knowu as the Kelley bill, be- causo Mr. Kelley of Pennsylvavia was chairman of the committeo that reported it to the house, When Mr. Mills reported the next tarifl measure whi passed the houso it was named after him, and 50 far us the country knows hecompiled it. The last congress passed a tariff bill named after the chairman of the committce on ways and means, and so faras popular credit 1s concerned, the able and well known republi- can member of the committeo might as well havo never beert in congress. Tho fact is, a nalf-dozon members of the majority on the committee cach do as much hard work and putas much individuality into a tariff - bill as the chairman, and I wish the country under- stood this fact, which is so well kinown in congress, “It has been the custom for the mnority to preseut a tariff bill to combat the one pre- sented by the majority. T'wo measures on the sawe subject tnerefore come before con- gress. They must have names, Custom has Kiven tho majority bill the name of the ch man on ways aud means, and the minority bill las been named after the head of the winority. Why, the country never heard of anybody buc Morrison of Iilinois when the horizoutal reduction oill was reported five years ago. 1t ought to be known that there wero two or three members of the majority of the committee who gave the bill more gen and work than he who got_the credit, and further that one of the principal features of desirability in the chairmanship of ways and means s thia unfair credit for bills which at- 10 the position, rtaluly there is great responsibilit connected with the chairmanship of thfs great committee,” continued the democratic congressman, “but in doling out credit for work and ability it is not justice to take from Lhose Wwho do as much, all credit for the work Violating of this act is punishable by a fine not exceeding £00in cuch case or imprison- meut fora term not_exceeding two years, or both, iu the discretion of the court.

An America [Communicazed) As T write theso words there lies before me an old book ‘witten by Jacob Boehme, & German shoemaksr who was very religious ang extraordinaey man. His book is called *“Forty Questions on the printed in Englistyin the year 1647, and was ouly one of thesmuny books ho wrote. In all of these he callg himself a *‘heosoph which in those days was the same as 0s0phist,” the itle really belongs to one who has put all, thes theosophical principles nto practice. Still, , populur usage s always stronger thaw fine distinction, and it is almost impossibla‘to keep before the mind of the public thosfdet that o mere member of this society is not/inecessarily thereby made into & per tect bédng, and is wdeed only one who i3 on twisl The famous Madame 1 lavatsky made ghis clear one day in Loa- don to & visitorwho asked if she was a the. osophist, to whith she replied, “No, but 1 am tryiug to be one.”’ Soin my use of the title ““theosophist” I mean one who is trying to put theosophiy iuto practice aud that too withoutregard to membership in the society. But this old Teutonic theosopher Boehme yvas, I think, i all senses a theosophist, for he ever lived up to his doctrines and came at last to have a great influence, which may be cousidered proyed from the anger he aroused in the hearts of certain dogmatic priests of his day who caused him to be persecuted and driven from hus town. There was already beginning to spread among the minds of the people of Europe in the timo of Boehme & revolt against the ter rible orttiodoxy which would not allow & man to believe that the earth was round or that it could not be possible that the globe and all théreon were created in six small solar days.

The result of this communication—in itself a command— resulted in the forming of the theosophical society inthe of New York, with tho avowed object of forming a nucleus of & uni- versal brotherhood—in fact, a repetition, on the purely moral side, of the declaration of independence. Unlike other bodies with broad aims, this one had from the firsta basis_which has given it solidity aud vill ever keep 1t ahve, The founders of the organization, belieying in tho intelligence sent to them that a wave interest in the powers of the soul was about to rise and that a new seeking for the philoso- her's stone upon amentirely different basis From any In the past would s0on begin, wiscly girected the attention of the members to the ancient stores of learning, to the end that all the superstition of the centuries might bo stripped off from the doctrines and beliefs heid From imiemorial time o respect ta man, his power, bis origin und his destiny. This attention resulted in a beliof in the ranks of society that there existed a koy tothe puzzles of the inner self, and soon upon the belief there followed & wide promuigation, But such @ divulgement inevitably draws down abuse and ridicule fromull who will not take the trouble to know what it is all about, and brave men and woren are required 10 carry the struggle for until missunder- standing disappears. Such men and women have been found, and now a little more lignt begins to break, increasiag the probability thut the people are almost ready to give a hearing to expositions of such satisfying doc- trines as those of kurma and rewcarnation, which are two out of many that the members of the society endeavor to place before thiuk- ing people.
