F. K. Baker Sees Por- tentous Perils Ahead for This Country. GODLESS REFORM FOLLY. The Speaker Denounces Anarchy as a Vicious and Impotent Attempt at IRelief. “ROME MUST REFORM OR DIE. The American People Declared to Be Calling Upon the Hierarchy - to Change Its Course. ' Rev. F. K. Baker, pastor of the Ep- worth M. E. Church, was the speaker at the Good Citizenship meeting yesterday alternoon. His subject was, ‘“Whither Are We Drifting ?”’ ““There are perils confronting this coun- try,” he suid, “and it is no citizen—and a pre\cher 13 & citizen—has a right to be si- lent. The pulpit and the press—those two mighty arms of reform—ought to reach out to save the country. **One of these perils is socialism. Un- derstaid me, when 1 say socialism I mean socialism gone mad; attempts at reform by violence. This form of socialism, if we can call it so, for I believe in true so- cialism, is an enemy of the home and an enemy of the school. With anarchy the theory is that might means right. The anarc hy spirit is indigenous to foreign soil, and almost all the troubles that threaten this country are the result of for- eign immigration. “‘We cannot afford- to put our country into the hands of such a lawless atheistic band. I bave no faith in godless reforms or movements. True religion is the basis of private virtue and happiness, of pros- perity and honor in the Nation. To build 4 nation on moral corruption is to build it on dynamite. Whatever lowers the Na- tional tone is a great calamity. This anarchy is a vicious desire to live without God, without anything. “Another peril is social dishcnesty and impiety. We need a moral crusade to clean out onr political offices. Our Super- visors aud other officials will do just as they please until the citizens shall stamp their feet and say this thing must stop. We need more Parkhursts to clean outour municipal institutions. ““‘We need to have our streets cleared of indecent show-bills and exhibitions that make a decent man’s blood boil. Every murderer, whether of life or of virtue, should be made to forfeit his life for the life he has taken. “Mammon is another of the perils that confront us. The question ¢f supreme im- portance to-day is, “‘What is there in it for me?’ The golden calf has kicked out the good sense of a good many. We are ap- parently drifting toward an oligarchy of money. Hoarding money is abusing it. Money shouid not be made a basis of so- cial precedence. A system which permits the accumulation of wealth in the bands of incorporations or individuals is wrong. Another portentous evil isthe influence of Bacchus. It is the worst enemy of the laboring man to-day. Chain the drink mounster and all other questions of moral and social government would largely set- tle themselves. Gambling is a peril also threatening our Government. “The last but not the least portentous of the evils threatening our land is the Roman hierarchy. Ecclesiasticism in sec- ular affairs is the aim of that church. It has been alone through Rome’s conduct that the American people have arisen, calling her to stop meddling with our pub- lic school« and with our beloved flag. The principles of the Roman hierarchy have always been the same. If it be afraid to face its past hisiory why does it continue to adbere to the principles that have made that history possible. “Rome in America must reform or die. The chances are 1n favor of death, because Rome cannot stand reform. The very thing which she must reform is her life itself. The education of the masses should be American, and foreigners, and people who are born in this country, too, should be made to keep their mouths closed about our public schools.”” ‘I'ne speaker, in conclusion, lamented the fact that the lowest men were allowed to vote, while “‘our noblest citizens, our wives and mothers, are refused the ballot.” HOTEL ARRIVALS, GRAND HOTEL.
