The Eminent Brooklyn Divine's Suu-
day Sermon.
Sohject: * The Bread Question.”
Text: “¥e have the poor always with
you." Matthew xxvi, 11,
Who said that? The Christ who never
owned anything during His earthly stay. His
eradle and His grave were borrowed. Every
fig He ate was from some one else's tree,
Every drop of water He drank was from
some one else's well, To pay His personal
tax. which was very small, only 81% oents,
He had to perform a miracle and make a
fish pay it. All the heights and depths and
Jenghts and breadths of poverty Christ meas-
ured in His earthly experience, and when
He comes to speak of destitution He alwaya
speaks sympathetically. and what He said
wavs with you.”
For 6000 years the bread question has been
the active and absorbing question. Witness
the people crowding up to Josephis store-
house in Egypt. Witness the famine in Sa-
maria and Jerusalem, Witness the 7000 hun-
gry people for whom Christ multiplied the
loaves, Witness the unocounted millions of
people now living, who, I believe, have
never vet had one full meal of healthfal and
nutritious food in all their lives,
the 854 great famines in England. Think of
the 25,000,000 people under the hoof of
hunger vear before last in Rossia.

frost, by war, by hurricane, by earthquake,
in the management of National finances,
by baleful causes innumerable. I pro-
eeed to give vou three or four reasons why
my text is markedly and graphically true in
this year 1894.
The first reason we have always the po
with us is because of the perpetual overhaul-
ing of the tariff question, or, as [I shall eall
it. the tariffic controversy. There is a need
for such a word, and so I take the responsi
bility of manufacturing it. There are millions
of people who are expecting that the present
Congress of the United States will do some-
thing one way or the other to ehd this dis
cussion, it will never end.
I was ve years of age, 1
ber hearing my father and neigh
bors in vehement discussion of this very
question, It was high tariff or low tariff or
no tariff at all, When your great-grand
dies at ninety years of . it will pr
be from over-exertion in dis

settlad, but it can never be moderately quiet

our years to fix it up, and then the next!
party will fix it down, Our finances cannot
get well because o1 too many dodtors. Its
with siok Nations as with sick individuals,
Here is a man terribly disordered as to
body. A doctor is called in, and he admin-
isters a febrifuge, a spoonful every hour,
But recovery is postponed, and the anxious
friends call in another doctor, and he says
“What this patient needs is blood letting ;
now roll up your sieeve!” and the lanset
flashes, But still recovery is postponed, and
a homecpathie doctor is ealled in. and he
administers some small pellets and saysc
“All the patient wants is rest.”
Becovery still postponed, the family say
that such small pellets ennnot amount to
much anvhow, and an aliopathie doctor is
ealled in, and he says, “What this patient
wants is calomel and jalap.” Recovery still
postponed, a hydropathie doctor is called in,
and he says: ‘What this patient wants is
hot and cold baths, and he must have them
right away. Turn on the faucet and get
ready for the shower bathe.” Recovery is
still postponed, an electric doctor is called
fn, and he brings all the schools to bear
apon the poor sufferer, and the patient, after
a brave struggis for life, expires. What
killed him? Too many doctors. And that
is what is killing our National finances. My
personal friends, Cleveland and Harrison
and Carlisle and McKinley and Sherman, as
talented and lovely and splendid men as
walk the earth, all good doctors, but their
treatment of our languishing finances Is so
different that neither treatment hasa full op-
portunity, and under the constant changes it
is simply wonderful that the Nation still
lives. The tariff question will never be set.
tled because of the fact—which I have never
heard any one recognize, but nevertheless
the fact—that high tariff is best for some
people and free trade is best for others. This
through with uncertainty, and that uncer-
for a vast multitude of people. If the eternal
gab on this question could have been fash-
foned into loaves of bread, there would not
be a hungry man or woman or child on all
the planet. To the end of time, the words
of the text will be kept true by the tarifle
