of Maryland has repudiated Bryan.
- Pklawauk's Republican factions have
practically agreed upon one ticket and
expect to sweep tho Sta'o.
. . Ik your tax is not paid see. to it at once
or you may lose your vote this fall. Re
publicans should be ou tho alert in this
waiter. '
Mr. ALTcim.n's aspiration to bo Chief
Justice of the Supreme Court of the
United SUitfci may ns well be plscod oo a
cake of Tammany trust Ico.
This year Sumner county, Kansas, will
sell four million dollars' worth of wheat
at McKinley prices. No dauger that it
will go for Bryau and cala.nity this fall.
Mil. Rkyam insists upon managing his
own campaign. Alter the election Chair
man Jones may retaliate by insisting
that the Nebraska statesman do hjs own
hospital musing.
Acvokdiso to Mr. Gorman's logic Mr.
Bryan deprived himself of the right to
oppose expansion when he supported the
ratification of the Paris treaty. And Mr.
norniau is soinowhat of a logician.
Til k Democratiu nowspapors are now
cngagod in finding fault on account of
the cost of the medical attention given
our soldiers in the Philippine. Wo fancy
this will not be a very effective vote
maker, '
"Tut: hum of industry has drowned
the voieo of calamity, and tho voice of
despair is no longer heard iu the United
Slates, and the orators without occupa
tion here aro now looking to the Philip
pines for com fort." President McKinloy.
Maink aud Vermont have spoken for
New England in a manner that ends
Democratic interest in that part of the
country. The peoplo of those States are
evidently satisfied with prospority as the
paranionut issue lor tho next four years.
Thk Cuban flag was officially hoisted
over tho public buildings at Santiago de
Cuba on tlio liSth of August. This cir
cumstance ought to end Democratic talk
about tho ultimate intentions of the Mc
Kinloy administration with reference to
Cuba.
"Mkn, not walls, make a city," is a
most appropriate inscription for the
medal with which the seige of Pekin is to
be commemorated. It is strongly sug
gestive of a "progress, not wails, make a
nation" maxim for the Republican cam
paign banners.
Ik President McKinley harbored any
imperialistic design? the remarks on the
Chinese situation in his letter of accept
aneo would show it. But nothing is found
there except a spirit of thankfulness for
tho roseuo of Americvn citizens from
terriblo danger.
"Wk must stop borrowing money in
Europe," declared Mr. Bryan in 18W.
He was right. There has ben a change
from a Democratic to a Republican ad
ministration and wo are now engaged in
loaning money gold to European na
tions with good credit,
Somk interest is manifested in the re
port that G rover Cloveland intends"com
ing out for Bryan." If another s'.raw
were necessary to break poor Bryan's
back this "coming out" of Cleviland will
certainly furnish it. When Grover, the
soup-house President, takes a Btand for
Bryan .
Tint opposition press is already so dis
couraged over tho ontlook that its pro
functory attacks on tho administration !
aro sandwiched between long editorials
on the sea serpent and tho obituaries on
those who were Democrats before the
party becamo tho side show of the Popu
list circus.
'Bhyan's speeches," said Senator Frye
at Westbrook, Maine, "have encouraged
rebellion in the Philippines. I say that I
do not see how any American can go
back on our soldiers. I say that this ex
penditure of tl8o,(Hi0,fjo0 and 2,000 lives
is to bo charged up against thia anti
American talk."
Every time tho Democratic newspa
pers, or a number of them at least, hear
of misfortune, poverty or want, fire or
famine, they appear to rejoice greatly.
The Democracy ought to mako sin and
sorrow a ''paramount isue," they con
tending, as would be natural, for the woe
and misery side.
Mn. Bryan attributes the non-fulfillment
of his calamity prophocies to the
good weather and crops. Yot, judging
from the l. nor of his speeches four years
ago, one might casliy have concluded
that the sun would slop shining aud the
rains cease to fall unless 10 to 1 was
adopted without delay.
How is this ne, Mr. Bryan? If a
Democrat tells you a trust is a good thing,
ak him why the Democratic platform
denuuuecs the trusts. If the Democrat
says the trusts are a bad thing, ask him
why Chsirman Jones, who is managing
Bryan's campaign, is one of the leiuliug
beneficiaries ol the round bulo trust.
In order to tost the assertion "that
por cent, of the drummers are tor Bryan
thisytar," S. C. Browneli of tho Rrown
oll Hardware Co., of Bath, X. Y., kept a
record of the political views of tlio drum
mers who called at his store from July
4ih until September 1st. The vote shows:
McKiuley Sfl, Bryan !, Prohibition 2, on
tho fence 3, total HO.
CoNCKRsisa "paramount" issues tho
President says In his letter of acceptance:
"The relative importance of the issues I
do not stop to discuss. All of them aro
Important, Whichever party is success
ful will be bound in consequence tocarry
into administration and legislation ita
several declarations and doctrines." The
Kansas City convention was the first to
attempt to befog the peoplo as to the sin
cerity of any part of its plat form.
fflij Thoy Are Projectionists.
' For the life of him and his supporters,
Mr. Bryan cannot see how the farmer
can bo a protect 'on ist. He asks and
they ask if any sano man will contend
that tne Piiuley tariff could have any
thing to do with increased exports of
wheat, corn or any k'nd of American
food products. Which, of course, has
nothing to do with the reason w hy Amer
ican farmers are protectionism. The rea
son that they aro protectionists is that
they raise their food products to sell, first
of all and most of all, to American con
sumers, and they know fiom bitter ex
perience that the American consumer
that is, tho wage earner cannot buy food
products whou he is out of work and has
not tho money to do it.
Iu 1SJ2, with a population of only 6.",-
000,000, this counl'-y (being uuder tlio
McKinley law, with all wage earners at
work) consumed 3tS,531,730 bushels of
wheat, Iu 1S!M, with tho mills and fac
tories closed bv tho Wilson law and the
waj;o earners unable to buy with their
accustomed purchasing power, there
wero consumed in this count, y by the
almost 6!,000,COO people only 2:;2,177,f.03
bushels of wheat. Under the McKiuley
law iu 1S02 tho per capita consumption of
wheat in tho United Sial.es was 5.!1 bush
els. Iu 1S!1 under tho Wi'sou law, it
was only 2.41, Likowiso iu tho United
States the consumption of coru fell from
2,000,000,000 bushels in to 1,000,000,000
bushels in li!Hi; the per capii consump
tion being 30.33 bushels in 1S02 and 14.73
n 1W.
That is why tho American farmer is a
Protectionist because he knows that un
less the American wago earners aro kept
at work, making money with which to
buy, ho has no consumers for his pro
ducts; because he knows that whou the
American market Is leveled Hat by a loss
of purchasing power through a loss of
wage earnings, the farmer's wheat is not
worth a match (o burn it, and his live
stock not worth a hammer to knock it in
the head. Xcw York Press,

Bryau's election coualuly would not
make the country auy more prosperous,
and thoro are a good many peoplo bo
sides traveling moil who are prolly firm
ly convinced that it would produco a
business panic the like of which has nev
er been -eeu.
Fifty-cent dollars and free trade, which
means the opeuing of our markets to tho
com petition of cheap foreign made goods,
cheap because they are made by cheap
labor, won't help tho traveling man, or

Trusts will work out their owu cure

than thoy will under bard times.
When times are good the small com

FALSE REFUGES.
K. K. 8II01T.
(Synopsis of a sermon preached by
District Kldor F. F. Shoup, of the Pills
burg conference, at the Sniithville camp
meeting, Ontario, June 0, 1000. Report
ed by J. W. Winans.
Text. "And tho hail shall sweep
away the refuge of lies." Isa. S:17.
Tho devil has innumerable ways in
which to entrap men, draw them into bis
service, and ultimately drag them down
to cprdition. Tho wicked are often made
to feel the necessity of a refuge for their
immortal souls. There aro various sourc
es from which fear springs np in their
he .i t.i, which makes them feel their neod
of a place of saloty. It often springs
from a cuilty conscience the direct op
eration of tho Spirit of tho Lord making
them to feel the guilt of thoir sin, their
lost condition and iio;h1 of being saved.
"Conscience makes cowards of us all."
When a man is disturbed with guilt he
seeks a covering somewhere. He must
find soino opiate to give him ease. A
thief ot an assassin may flee to distant
lands for fear of being apprehended. His
guilty conscience causes him to imagiue
that every man is on his tiack and that
every bush is an officer. He seeks to find
relief from his sin-smitteu conssience,
aud to forget the awful goadings of that
internal monitor. lie trios to put time
biul spaco between hliiis-.lf and tho place
where tho crime was committed, but it
does not reniovo the guilt that is upou
his conscience. Conscience follows him
everywhere, and guilt disturbs his com
fort and peace. There is no place of con
ceal men t from the eyes of tho Iord. "The
eyes of tho Lord aro in every place, bo
holding the evil and tho good."
Again meu are frequently aroused to
feel their need of a refuge through the
calamitous events of life. In coming
face to face with danger they seo how
frail they aio physically. As death secu.s
about to usher them luto eternity they
begin to think how they will stand in the
day of Judgment,
Then also there are thoso who are
awakened under the alarming influence
of the preached word. The word of God
iu its purity is an effective instrumental
ity In avakouing the lost. God has de
signed through tlio"foolishnes.so' preach
ing" to convert thorn that believe. Many
thousands have beeti awakened to tuko a
retrospective viow -" tueir life undor the
faithful dispensing of the gospel ot the
Sou of God, I have known men who
have been so strongly moved upou by
the Spirit of the Lord to tiko their stand
and move to the mercy seat, that they
havo taken hold with both hands the
back of thoir scat to resist tho drawings
of the Spirit of the Lord under the
pleaching of the word. Frequently w hen
thus awakenod men betake themselves
to false refuges to refugos of lies.
Soino soek a refuge under a partial ref
ormation. They resolve that thoy will
do better and live differently, Bv sign
ing a pledge, or, perhaps, by breakingoff
the more outward expressions of sin,
they hope finally to gain heaveu.
Some say they do not want to plunge
into the question of religion as many do
who profess Christianity, so thoy resolve
to do hotter iu a quiet, conservative way.
Doing better is well, but it will not an
swer before Almighty God. Many stop
when they feel a little better. As soon as
a man moves out in the right direction a
man breahs off the grosser sins of bis life
his conscience will approve his actions
and the Sp: -it of God will endorse him as
far as ho has gone, but it is only a partial
reformation of life.
There are thoso who tako upon them
selves a general regard for Christian mor
ality those who have been very wicKed
and outspoken against the roligion of
tho Biblo. In a senso, tho Spirit baa
moved upon them nnd they Jeol their
guilt. They begiu to lessen up In their
transgressions, and have a general regard
for Christianity. They will probably at
tend the religious services. Before they
had given tho means of grace but trilling
consideration, but now, awakened under
the Hjjht of tho Spirit of God, they cease
to speak against it, but rather speak in
favor and give some consideration to re
ligious matters.
Again, there aro those who take upon
themselves a more outward profession of
religion. Tho larger proportion seek
refuge behind tho palo of the church.
Tfiere aro thoso who imagino that if they
can only work themselves up to the point
whero they can step out in a public way
and repiesent themselves to bo followers
or Jesus, that they may have a warrant
of safety for the world to come. There
are very many who imagine thai, tho sal-
vatiou of the gospel consists of onlv an
outward, bold profession of religion
beforo tho world. A man may profess
religion before tho world. A man may
pro'ess religion and not possess it. Jesus
spoko iu cmphatiuiermstothoscribesand
Pharsecs, calling them hypocrites, and
comnving t'lem to"whito sepulchres."
They wero beautiful on the outside,
but inwardly they weie filled with dead
men's bones. There" are those who have
been reared wi liin the paleof thochurch.
In their infancy they were carried to its
alie: s and put through man-made corn
monies. Thev have been confirmed and
baptised, which pives them a church ro
la'ionshii). No matter how wicked thev
iiikv have bicn In later years, they cling
to that as their hope ot heaven. This
state of affairs may be largely accounted
for from the fact that tho ministrv of the
day is largely in a backsliding condition
The popular ministers to-day are seek'
inn to gather numbers into tho church
and 10 can v to eonioienee report or a
largo increase in membership. Thoy Im
agine tho s renglh of the church consists
in the number that enlar it. If they can
succeed in gen ng numbers thoy have
accomplished the end they had in viow.
They say, "Come with us and we will do
the good." As a result the church is filled
wiiu men aim women who nave no
knowledge of tlio power of God to save
from sin.
Tho-e are those who try to hide behind
a spirit of genenwitv; to contribute lib
oraily to tlio support ol tho church. Giv
ing lioerall is riuht and proper, but for
a man to haso his hopes of heaven on that
alone is I'ke leaning on a broken reed.
It will como idiort of securing happiness
in Ihe world to como.
In llieir dying hour many are insdo to
see very clear! v and realize keenly that
they have been leaning on false hopes,
and trus. ing in refuges of lies. Many are
awakened in see themselves when it is
too late to mako restitution and bo rec
onciled to God. Iu the great day of judg
ment all unredressed wrongs, unpun
ished crimes aud wrongful suffering will
be adjusted.
In tne in idst of false refugos there is a
truo refuge. Jesus Chi ist came into the
world to bo a relugo for sinners. He
does not w ill that any should iH-'riMi, but
that all should come to repen:aico. He
alone has power lo save ami In keep from
sin, and he is the only sure refuge for an
iinino.'Ltl mi u 1 .
