What Others Say.
"It is a curious fact that we are establishing
a code of conduct in I lie political
arena that is not only diilerent
from but antagonistic to that of the
moral rule which governs the individual
in his private transactions, 'l'he
man who would resent as an insult tiie
proposition even to commit a swindle
or aid in a theft will swing his hat with
cheers over a succe.-sful criminality ot
his party. The average member ot
Congress will tell you frankly, without
thinking, that it cost him not less than
five thousand dollars to secure his seat.
That same member would knock you
down for intimating that he had the

nrocess, in his dwelling or business.
When, for example, the heaviest manufacturer
of agricultural implements
in Ohio called his workmen togethei
previous to the late election and said,
"My men, I have no wish to influence
your votes, but if 0 rover Cleveland is
elected President, no more smoke wili
issue from those chimneys," he was
applauded by his party for having
done a clever thing. That same man,
when charged subsequently with putting
his company's money in a rascally
wheat deal, that sent tlje president
of a bank to the penitentiary, resented
the charge with the indignation of an
honest man. Aud'yet the moral turpitude
of the two transactions is greatly
in favor of the Fidelity Hank."
The Christian calls attention to a
suggestive fact: "Has any noticed
how few hymns are quoted in these
days? One minister has said that
about the entire body of Christian
truth with wnieli his people were acquainted,
was contained in the hymnbook.
The hymns they sung had fastened
themselves on their minds. But
there is a recent and large class ol
hymns which are scarcely ever quoted
; indeed they are hardly remembered;
for there is little or* nothing in

We do really think that the Church
Js suffering more than she herself may
he aware of suffering, from a plague
of organizations ? organizations that
swarm within her own great and allsufficient
organization, and prey upon
her proper life. There are some people
who seem incapable of going about
any charitable or religious work in a
quiet and informal manner. For every
thing they attempt they must have
a "chairman" and a "secretary" and
machinery of rules and committees;
and tuere must be a periodica! blaie ot
gj reports, which are often nothing better
than a form of boasting.

Some men seem to think that they
have a special mission to rebuke sin
and point out faults. They never sec
the bright side of life, nor of anything
in the world. Their altitude with rel
erence to their neighbors and the
Church leads them to exaggerate the
evil, and they bccomc unreliable in
judgment and speech. Such men
thiuk they are following out their convictions,
when they are only following
out their prejudices. They have such
a horror of moral cowardice that they
become social nuisances.

The National "1'louk."---We
printed some opinions last week in icgard
to the choice of a national flower.
Here is a little story which shows thai
one man voted for a white "Hour''
which was neither oalla nor water lily,
and more useful than ornamental:
A grocer not long ago heard some o!
his customers talking on tliis subject.
Now he had a particular kind of jlmtr
for sale called the Haxall brand, ami
when he was asked what he thought
would be the best llower for the nation
to adopt, lie said :
"Why, that Haxall brand <s way
ahead of every thing else, and is the
only kind that's lit to be the national
flour."
One of the most common mistakes
made in putting up new belts is in getting
them entirely too tiyht. The
man knows that new belts stretch a
good deal for a time after being put into
use, and unless made very ti^ht at
first soon require taking up: so he
makes them as tight as they can be
made to go on the pulleys, regardless
of the fact that t? is excessive tension
pulls the belt into short crooks, destroys
its elasticity, iniures the ma
cliine on which ft runs, and is very
wasteful of power.

An Experiment with Gurr.?
You may suppose that because your
liens have the run of a range, they
procure all the gravel they desire, and
so they can?of round gravel?hut as
the run may have been searclicd over
for months, and perhaps years, the
supply of sharp materia1 may he seam*.
To test this, break up some' glass, old i
china or other brittle material, and no-'
tice the avidity with which the hens!;
will eat it. It is just as necessary to sup- i
ply the hens with grit a* it to provide J <

Dear Neighbor'.
Almost every day brings with ii incidents
continuing the neces-ity oi
your existence, and vindicating the
wisdom of disseminating the principles
upon which thai existence is based,
in order to develop and bring out a
higher order, ami a better type of manhood,
and Christian eivili/.ation.
Only the other dnv in Barnwell occurred
an incident as black, brutal and
diabolical as anything could well be,
even beyond the borders of Christen
dom, and if any tiling should impress
itself upon the better class of citizens
among us, it should he the importance
of giving growth and force to the sentiments
vindicated year after year in
the columns of the Ni:ic;iilion, "i'eace ,
on earth and good will toward men." '
If Christ had sway among us, and i
the principles of the ISKiciinou controlled
the actions of man, we would
not have men murdered, and then as a 1
sequel to that, men led out l?y brutal ,
mobs and lynched under the sable ;
mantle of night.
Christ's kingdom is a kingdom oi
light, and contends for peace on earth
lirsl last and all time. .Some mclhoii
must be adopted to realize tins end.
Arbitration would.bring to the world .
a system of law and government, i: ?
once made a law, which would do
more to lessen crime, lessen expense, ,
and vindicate justice, than any thing '
that could be done. It would greatly
lessen the temptation felt by most law- ;
yens, to play sharp tricks, and win if '
they can. <
We would soon have less lawyers,
Ifcss expensive court, less dissatisfaction
after tlie adjournment of court,
and less lynch law.
O that the sentiment of the Xnuiiiioit
could be given more force, ami
have a greater circulation among men,
and thereby make Christ's kingdom
the dominant kingdom of lliis world.
It is the need of our times, and too
much emphasis cannot be given to it,
as auaUJjuportant demand.
Cine of the noblest and ne.st utterances
in \V. W. 'Wadsworth's new
book, "The Coming Kingdom," i>
when he says, Christ's "plan and work
for Israel, were pre-eminently spiritual,
and came in direct conflict with I he
prevalent view.
The maintenance of this Truth to
the end cost him His life. Christ be.
fore Pilate saying, 'My kingdom is not
of this world, for then would my servants
fight,' shows conclusively that
llis conception of the universal reign
01 peace, wuii iiiv wnue-wnigi'ii inMf
hoveling above its spotless banners,
could never have been born of the
spirit of the times, when the eagle
with outspread talons, ready to devour,
stood as a royal emblem ot the dominating
power of the world."
Dear Nkioiiijok, may this be to yon
a year of great growth and prosperity,
and may the day be not lar oflj when
the motto and sentiment under which
you are working, shall be the motto
and sentiment of every paper in this
