I nm glad that a w ive of i erorm has swept across this Ian I. und nil tho cities nro fucliugtho advantage of the mighty movement. Let tip) good work go on until the last municipal evil is ox tirpntd. About llfteen vears ago the dis tinguished olltor of a 'New Yoric dolly nowspap-r Slid to mo In his editorial room : "You ministers talk about evils of which you know nothing. Why don't you go with the officers of the law and explore for yourself, so that when you preach ng ilnst sin you can speak fro:n what you have seen with your own eyes?" I s il l, "I will," and In comp any with a commissioner of police nnd a captain ol police and two eld'irs of my chur th I exploro I thedeus nn 1 hiding places of nil styles ol crime In New Yor and preached n series of surtnons warning youni, men and s itting forth the work that must be done lest the Judgments of God whem this city with more nwlulsufmiergoment thantho volcnnlo deluge tn.it burled HeroulaneaT and Pompeii. I received, ns nearly as I can r. member, several hundred columns of nsws pnperahuso for undortnklng that explora tion. Editorials of denunciation, double loaded, nnd with captions in great primer tvpo, entitled "The Fall of T.ilmsg." or "Talmage Makes the Mistake of Ills Life," or "Down With Talmage," hut I stlil live and am In lull sympathy with nil movo.aeatj formuuicipil piitiiu.ttlou. Hut a movement whi ili on Is with crime exposod nn l law cx 'cut.j.l stops half wty. Nay, It stops lon b ifore .t g ts half way. 1 he law never yet saved nnyhndy, niver yet changed anybody. Dreak up all tho houses o! Iniquity in this city, and you only scud the occupants to other citls. Lreaii down nil tho policemen in New York, nud while It changes their worldly fortunes It does not change their heart or life. Tho greatest wnnt In New York to-day Is the transform ing power of tho gospel of Jesus Christ to change the heart and tho tilo nnd uplift the tone of moral sentlai4it nnd make m?n do right not because they aro nfrald of Lu How Street Jail or Sing Sfug, but beuausn they love God and hnte unrighteousness. I have never hoard, nor have you heard, of any thing except the gospel that proposes to re generate the heart, an 1 by the lufluuoe of that reenerared heart rectify the life. Ex euto tho law most certainly, but pr-ach the gospel by nil moans In churches, lu theutres, In homes, In prisons, on the land nu I on th i sea. Tho gospel Is tne enly pow -r that euu revolutionize society nnd save the world. Ail e'gs Is half and half work an 1 will not lust. In New York it has allowed men who got by police bribery their thousands nn l tens of thousands and porhaps hundreds of thou sands of dollars to go e-ot Jreo, while some who were merely the e.ifg p n- iiu,i a.,.tt of nnbery nre srru ik with tin lightnings of th i law. It reminds me of atcae lu Philadel phia when I was living there, a poor wo man had been nrrjst. nnl tried and Im prisoned for selling mobi's.-s ciudv on Sun day. Other lawbreakers had hum allowed to go undl-turbo I, and tun grogshops were open on the Lor I's D.iv, and tho law, with its hands behind Its ha ;!.-, willtel up nn l down the streets decilnln to molest'manv ot tho off 'nders, but we nil rose up In our righteous indignation, unit calling uuou nil powers, visible nn I Inv.slhlo, to help us, w declared that though the heavens full no wo man should bo adowod to bull inolusses can ly on Sunday. A few weeks ago, after I hal pronehed In oue of the eiiurnhes In this city, a man staggered up ou th pulpit stairs, maudlin drunk, t ayiug, "I am oae o' tuo reformers that were elected to high oHie at tho last election." I got rid of that "great reformer'' as soon as I could, but I did not get rid of the impression that a man like that would cure the nboailuntlons of New York about as soon as smallpox would cure typhoid fevr or a buzzsaw render Haydn's "Creation.'1 Polities in all our cities has bocotne so cor rupt that the only difference between the Hapubllcsn and Damoor.ttlo parties is that each It worse than the other.
