MORAL ASPECTS OF POLITICS

A course of talks on the moral as
pects of the political campaign was be
gun last night in Klin Park Methodist
chtiivn by the pastor. Itev. Dr. t. M.
tiitlin. The topic of his address was
"I'olitics Without Kyes." While the
evening service always attracts a par
ticularly large nudtenoe. the announce
ment of last night's subject drew to tho
church a throng that tilled the seats in
auditorium Und gallery to overflowing.
Dr tiillln announced that his topic
next Sunday night would he Politics
Without Conscience." and on the fol
lowing Sunday, "Politics Without
II -n i t."
The singing was fully in keeping with
th-? thought of the address, the two
congregational hymns being "Mv Coun
try. "Ns of Thee." ,,,!
Lord, while for nil mankind we pray
Of every clime and ciast,
O hear ns for our native land
The land We love the most.
Dr. Glflln's text was "TUInd people
that have eyes.-' Isiah xliil S. There
Was nothing In his discourse to indicate
which party had his symputby; what
he discussed was more specially the po
litical blindness of so-cnilcd Intelligent
voters. He wild:
"My mother taught me thai none are -o
blind ns those that will not see. The text
of tonight suggests the need of the ser
vices of the prophet and not the ocoiillst.
It might well be applied to our case ut
present n our political condition. We nee l
to know a great deal about it, lint n knowl
edge that comes of boasting is not sense."
Faith in 1'rovldence "is pious cant and
one of the most despicable forms of cloak
ing one's lack of knowledge. 1 shall not
tonight enumerate the ratio of this blind
ness hut will mention some of the classes
anil if any one tits your case 1 hope you
will protit by It.
ANOTHER BLINDHD CLASS.
"One blind class sees through the eyes
of others. It Is better to be aide to cast
a ballot intclllirpntly for president thnn to
be eleeied president by campalun nicks
mill through the efforts of henchmen. I
Waul to say from a Christian pulpit If
you vote through the eyes of another you
are nothing more than a cypher; I don't
know what your reason would be for being
a nonentity, but I do know you ought not
lo be that.
"Another blinded class is that which
looks through but one eye. He learns ns
much us does the man from the echo of
his own voice. 1 should be nshamcd to
be content with only reuding my party
Paper that is left at my door. A man who
will not post himself on the beliefs and ar
guments of ihe opposition Is worse than a
bigot; the word hardly describes the man
who 'goes it bind' and. right or wrong,
swallows the whole thing. It's not the
'judgment of the good sense" to form our
opinions before going into the Jury box or
hearing the witnesses.
"The prayer, '( (!od. help us not lo de
spise our rulers and I ' ! them not to be
uble to help Us not to despise them.' Is not
wholly a bad one. Keeping your eyes
open don' I mean listening only, for if you
hear you will not Vote for uny candidate.
Study evidences and truth, if the devil Is
father of lies he has lots of children at
r lection limes. Its well for you to know
how lo judge the candidate who was so
bothered about the inud-iliiiglng that he
didn't know whether hu was running for
the presidency or the penitentiary. Look
all along the line and know of a ticket
whether it's good head has not a bad tail.
"Any platform that does not contain the
heart of righteousness will never stand
for any legtli of time. We can thank Hod
for that. Its a case of being on Cod's
side don't understand me not of (tod's
being ou our side; w "'re doing (Sod's w ork,
not He ours. You must have a personal
Judgment of parly principles, but If a
voter has It not, when he goes to deposit
his ballot his hand should be palsied: be
is on the pur of a ballot bax staffer. Many
a man who votes knows as little of the
thing he is voting for ns the man who dies
nol vole. Hliame nn us, or a Halloa whielf
whs purchased ut such a high cost.
TOO BVSY TO SKK.
"There is a class too busy to make use
of their eyes, one of them hangs out a
Mag on holidays, and shoots off skyrockets
on the Fourth of July, but suys he's too
busy lo bother Willi politics or use his
be ruga live beyond Ihe point of walking lo
Hie booth, putting Iu his ballot und then
going home with the satisfaction that
whutever happened to Hit. country he had
done his duty. What a spectacle! What
a use of the powers Ood gave you. I've
nothing to say of party managers who
say what's the need of using your eyes,
there's nothing in It but the spoils? They
profess nothing else and preaching to them
would not do you any good. We want the
country aroused, not by the practical cam
paigning, but in studying. There's too
many men who save the country by ai
tending meetings nearly every nlghl Iu
the week and there Imbibe u great deal of
their counliy's product and slaitger home
at a late hour with not enough voice left
to say gouil night to their lives.
"Politics is as healthy us any art or
science ami (ill citizens should be poli-li'-ians
iu tlie sense that he knows what
is best for his country's good. We want
an army of those; we want (iodly politic
ians, enthusiastic ones. Ye, we do want
enthusiastic politicians. The oil from a
grimy torch In a procession muy be almost
as sacred as holy oil if the bearer of the
torch carries it in an intelligent hand.
I've marred In political parades and if I
don't lose my mind 1 may march in an
other before this campaign is over. Th- y
are good, they re healthy; perpetual agi
tation will keep corruption out of a re
public, and parades and Ihe enthusiasm
that goes with them Is a good form of agi
tation If the paraders und enthusiasts
know what its all about.
"If any or you, my brothers, represent
any of the classes I have referred lo, you
are doing your country as much harm as
good In your blindness or ignorance. You
have It in your grasp to be as powerful ns
the man you elect to office, but to do It
you've got lo have a Godly Idea of what
your ballot represents."
RECEPTION AT CATHEDRAL
Nearly One Hundred Received Into
Third Order of St. I'ranri.
Nearly one hundred persons were re
ceived Into the Third Order of St.
Francis at St. Peter's cathedrnl last
night. Several years ago a branch of

er. He Is gifted with a fine presence
and has a rich, flexible voice which can
be heard from the altar to the entrance
of the cathedral without a strain on his
part. At last mass In the morning he
preached the sermon and was very Im
pressive. His text was from the gos
pel of the mass and dealt with the all
linportant duty resting upon every per
son, that of saving his soul. He pre
ceded with an explanation concerning
the Third Order of St. Francis and
urged all to join it.
In the evening the reception was
conducted by Father Pamphllius, as
sisted by Fathers O'Reilly, Carmody,
and Malone. The cathedral was crowd
ed and the ceremony was a beautiful
one. The postulants came forward to
te sanctuhary rail and were Invested
with the scapular and cord, and took
the vow. The trldumm will close with
a mass at 8 o'clock this morning at
which the members of the order will
receive holy communion.
St. Francis was born In Assist, Italy,

first, that of the Friars Minor: the sec
ond, that of the Pour Clares, for wo
men ; uud the third, familiarly called
the Third Order, whose rule Is adapted
to all people In the world.
The Third Order, not only has the
sanction, but the blessings and most
earnest approbation of the poea from

and penance, compatible with their

VERY FINE PARADE
OF TEMPERANCE MEN
Four Thousand Men la Lioc Headed by a
Score of Bands.
VIEWED BY THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE
It Itequired the Parade Just One Hour
to Pass a t.ive Poiat.Wany of the
Clergy ot'lhc Diocese Kode Car
riugesSl. Alovsiux Society of
W ilkes-Bnrrc, Was the Largest
Organisation in l.isc.
Scranton was honored Saturday with
a very creditable parade of the Catholic
Total Abstinence society of the Dio
cesan union. Thousands came to tow n
lo see the marchers, and the streets
were crowded all day. Not until late
in the evening did the throng betake
themselves homeward, and there was
not a single unpleasant incident to mar
the occasion. It was an ideal day for a
parade, nor was the weather uncom
fortable for the attendance at the pic
nic In Laurel Hill park. Conducted un
der the auspices of St. John's society,
of Pine Hrook, for the entertainment of
visiting brethren and friends. The pic
nic was largely attended and was a
success.
Hetween adult and cadet societies
there were nearly fifty In line; and an
Idea of the members represented can be
gained from the fact that marching
was in columns of fours, and took the
parade an hour exactly lo pass The
Tribune ollice. A score of bands and
drum corps furnished music. Hand
some banners nnd handsome uniforms
and regalias and 1'nited States lings ap
peared all along the line. It was esti
mated that there were 4.0U0 men In line,
nnd quadruple that number from other
places were present on the streets of
the city to view the parade.
Societies within the city and those
adjacent thereto marched from their
halls and arrived at Wyoming avenue
at the place of formation at 9 o'clock,
t'p-t he-valley societies came in on
trains arrllng between 9 and 10.30., and
they were mel at the station by the
grand marshal and members of his
staff and escorted to the positions as
signed to them. The down-the-valley
societies kept arriving as late as 11
o'clock, and thus delayed the starting.
GRAND MARSHAL AND AIDS.

up In three divisions, and the colors of
the officers of each were red, white and
blue respectively. The uids were
mounted.
It was ten minutes after the court
house bell tolled the noon hour when
Grand Marshal O'Malley gave the order
to march. Mounted Officers Dyer and
Captain Burke rode at the head of the
parade and deured the streets of vehi
cles nnd other such obstacles. Ropes
had been stretched along Lackawanna
avenue and that confined the spectators
on the sidewalk.
The line of march was from Wyom
ing to Spruce street, to Franklin ave
nue, to Lackawanna avenue, to Wash
ington avenue, countermarching at
Gibson street, back to Spruce street, to
Jefferson avenue, to Linden street, to
Clay avenue, to Poplar street, where
the line was reviewed by thegrand mar
