" Following is the editorial article | from the Manila Times: “The official announcement of the | impending departure from these islands of the archbishop of Manila, the Very Rev. Jeremiah J.

The rare anion in him of tenderness and strength, the unfailihg appeal of a > gerlonality of singular charm, won im not alone the deep respect of those with whom he came in contact, but quickened that respect to the warm glow of affection. In a very real sense the archbishop has repre- sented his church, for he has typified its broad humanity, its unwearied and unshaken faith in an ideal, and its wise understanding that ‘we are neither children nor gods, but men in a world of men.’ He leaves behind him a pame of singular sweet savor— and if he should care to think of this matter—he may take with him the .. consciousness that he has won love .. .and honor among the peaple to whom thirteen years ago he was sent to minister,” : Jail for Fast Men, Says the Auto Club ;‘ll" for speeding autoists.” ‘Peeved pedestrians do not make It comes from the Omaha Automobile club and is set “+ in bold type right on the frontispiece of their monthly magazine, so that “he who runs may read.” “A jail sentence is the only ef- fective remedf which will stop speed- ing and reckless driving,” reads the boomeran| “What gloel the man with the big | i expensive car care for the infinitesi- mal sting of a $5 fine.

Mackay, Rector of All Saints’ Episcopal Church, Omaha, Warns the People Against the False Prophets of Prohibition, as Follows: We are in the midst of a political campaign where there is an effort being made to line up the Christian people of our State on the side of a political party called “Prohibitionist.” Our Protestant churches' are be- ing whipped into obedience to the dictates and principles of this party, and the sacred cause of religion ig identified witfi a question which is purely political. We have the strange spectacle of a Church which was founded on “Personal Liberty” demanding as a condition of active mem- bership that its members cast their ballots in accordance with the view of a few political agitators, whose activity is based on the salary they draw, not because they are filled with the spirit of the real reformer. 1 appeal to you as Christians to beware of such leaders. The history of the past warns us that all attempts to unite the Church and the State on any question must prove disastrovs to the Church. If there is any one truth we of America have imbibed from our forefathers, it is the necessity of keeping apart from all entangling alliances with the powers that be. You are to determine by your vote next November whether your fel- low citizens shall, or shall not, have the privilege of using, as they shall deem best for themselves, intoxicating liquors. As Christians who are taught that “Where the spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty,” you are asked to interfere with the personal habits of thousands of your fellow citizens, who are entitled to the same freedom that you enjoy. You may not agree with these men, but ddes that difference of opinion entitle you to persecute them? 2 We cannot adopt the rules or opinions of other men any more than we can wear their clothes, and it wold be as unchristian for us to compel our fellow men to eat and drink as we do as for Quakers to compel all men to wear their peculiar garb. There are thousands of our fellow citizens who insist upon identify- ing the Lord’s Day with the Jewish Sabbath. Will you ask the legis- lature to deprive them of their liberty, and cox{l})el these people to give up the observance of their own Christian Day of Rest? As Saint Paul said to his Galatian converts: “Oh, foolish Galatians, who hath be- witched you? How is it that you are turning back again to the weak and beggarly elements to which you are wanting to become slaves a second time? I am afraid of you lest I have bestowed upon you labor in vain.” And then he adds: “Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ has made us free.” To Saint Paul there was a Christian liberty which was above all law. He would not misuse his liberty, but he could advise Timothy, “Do not continue to drink nothing but water, but take a little winet;'J,n account of the weakness of your stomach and your frequent ail- ments.” t A new power had come into the world, and what the law could not do, the spirit of Love could do. The Christian was to be superior to Law because a higher power—the power of Love—had come over him. “They that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh and the lusts thereof.” We cannot think of Saint Paul calling upon the legislature to correct the evils of his day. He advises his converts—Ephesians v, 18: “Do not drink wine to excess, for that leadsto profligacy,”—evidently it was not grape juice he refers to—“but seek to be filled with God’s Spirit.” He also specifies the acts of the flesh, such as “unchastity, impurity, inde- cency, idolatry, sorcery, quarrels, strife, jealousy, outbursts of passion, acts of rivalry, dissensions, divisions, feelings of envy, drunkenness, revelry and the like.” He contrasts with these the opposite virtues, con- trasting “drunkenness” with “self-control,” declaring that “against such things was no law.” Saint Paul as a Christian distinguisfied between the use and abuse of all of God’s gifts. Wine was good; but the excessive use of wine led " to profligacy. ‘‘Self-control”—or Temperance—was therefore to be prac- ticed. But with the present program enforced, there will be no Tem- perance, for with the absence of temptation, the virtue of “sobriety” will have vanished. If the sin of drunkenness is abolished by law, what will become of its opposite virtue, Temperance? The inmates of our penitentiaries are temperate, virtuous, honest men, so far as outward appearance go, but who would dream of calling them “honest,” or “virtuous,” or “temper- ate?” Man is made for freedom, not slavery. He cannot be raised in a monastery or kept in a penitentiary. He must have freedom, and it is only by contact with the powers of evil that he can ever arise to the stat- ure of the perfect man—Christ Jesus, our Lord. Temperance, as preached in the Scriptures, is not prohibition! Why should these advocates of prohibition single out the one sin of “drunken- ness” from among Saint Paul’s catalogue of sins? Why not legislate against “fornication and impurity, and strife, and jealousy?” These are, in Saint Paul’s judgment, just as weighty sins as drunkenness! I have made a study of Scripture all my life, but I fail to find in the Bible any support for the modern political dogma of “Prohibition.” Our churches are being used merely as catspaws to forward a politi- cal movement, and keep up the excitement which was once furnished by the old-time revivals of religion. There is evidently no live issue before them. I am speaking to Christian men, and to men who should know that any alliance with any political party on the part of the Church must surely prove disastrous; and also that any attempt on the part of any church to pass laws which will prove obnoxious to a large majority of our citizens will sink the Church lower and lower in the eyes of all liberty- loving, honest men. \ The government of the United States is “a government of the- peo- ple, by the people, and for the people,” and no class of citizens should guard against any encroachment upon that principle with more jealousy than the Christian churches of our land. : I believe in full and complete restriction of all evils. We have laws enough on our statute books to make our grand State a model temper- ance State. Will you undo all the temperance work of the past by de- manding, as Christians, the enactment of a law which can only bring us into contempt? Will you admit by your vote next November that the Church of the living God is unable to cope with one sin—the sin of In- temperance? Will you sell your birthright of Christian liberty for a mess of pottage? When you invoke the power of the Law, you are deserting the teaching and example of Jesus Chris: and His Apostles, and denying the power of God unto salvation. If we must call on the law to save us from our sins, let us close our churches and make the legislature our God. If the Gospel of Jesus Christ is a failure, and the advocates of Pro- hibition admit that it is, let us cease calling upon Christ in our churches, and appeal to the great majesty of the Law to save us from our sins.
