Westward the Course of Empire.
It hx- often been remarked that the
tendency ol towns and cities to tiuiid west
w.nd. Look wmi< you will and, unless
thin- be .mm natural course to act as a
barrier, you will bud our American cities
moving westward, it almost stems that
ih« tendency ol mankind is to move to
ward the .setting sun.
Sot only li t thi.- been true of the set
thrment of America, but it is also true of
the tth in* nt and civilization of the
world thus demonstrating tin- force of the
famous saying: "Westward the course of
Empire takes its way.”
When we come to think about it, we re
call the fact that in the fardistant past the
Caucasian race had its beginning in south
western Asia. As time went by the popu
lation inert ased. until the country was no
longer aide to , upirort it. 'i'heii one by
one detachments Wert sent out and pushed
to the westward, where, encountering more
primitive triln.', they reduced these to
subjection and grafted upon them more
advanced customs, together with the pa
triarchal form of government.
Thus, little by little, the Caucasians set
tled in Europe and became the dominant
race. Century after century civilization
advanced, and the governments became
monarchical
With tin discovery ol America came a
new era of invasion, conquest, and coloni
zation As before, tile manners and cus
toms, and the form of government, of the
conquering race were established in the
new country. The principal European na
tions com erned in this colonizing move
ment wire England, France, and Spain,
and accordingly the monarchical form of
government prevailed on trie new conti
nent.
In tln progret; of time. America too ad
vanced in civilization, ami a very impor
tant development took place—the change
to a republican form of government.
i.May w e not look forward, then, to a glo
rious future for our country, in which, ex
lending westward its civilization and its
government "of the people, for the people,
and by the people,” it will become a great
benefactor to the whole world? May we
not look for such a result In Hawaii and
In the Philippines -as well as in Cuba.
We say we may. Woe, then, to the man
or nation that dales assail or oppose this
beneficent civilizing policy of our great,
grand, free country.
Sable Island.
Sable Island, sixty miles south of which
the 'terrible disaster to the steamer La
illourgogne took place last Monday, when
f>oo lives wei< lost, has a more frightful
ri i ord tor ship wricks than even the barren
Anticosti in the mouth of the St. Lawrence
river, notes the Birmingham News. The
island is a mass of sand, 'twenty miUs in
length and one mile wide. At one time it
'was 201) fill high. It is constantly moving
eastward, being what is known as a "trav
eling island." Topographers of the sea
(have much difficulty in keeping track of
St, since it changes positions in less than
<a year’s time. Dense fogs surround it
much of the time, ami it is in the line of
'the icebergs and Horse that come slowly
moving southward from Labrador and the
arctic region. So terrible is the island it
self in appearance and shore line that the
Canadian government maintains there spe
cial light houses lor the protection of ina
triners. Great sandbars surround 'the is
land. one on the narrowest end being sev
enteen miles long. Sable Island is the
point where the three great currents of
the Atlantic Ocean on the North American
roast meet, the arctic current flowing
southward, the gulf stream passing north
eastward and the current from the St.
Lawrence, Their varying moods produce a
state of ifiairs dreaded by every mariner.
The vicinity of Sable Island has been the
scene of more than 100 shipwrecks during
the century.
In No Danger.
Somebody a short lime ago started the
suggestion that the veterans of the pres
ent war lie declared eligible to the Grand
Army of the Republic. which suggestion
has called forth a protest from certain
Northern newspapers. The Department of
Pennsylvania also placed an emphatic
■’No" upon the proposition when it came
up before that body at its roeent encamp
ment.
The opposition was based on the idea
that to adopt such a move, for it would
mean the reception of ex-soldiers of the
Confederacy into the ranks of the G. A.
|R.. w hich would inevitably lead to a clash.
Although the suggestion was itself the
height of folly, those who opposed it were
equally wrong in assuming that it "would
mean the reception of ex-soldiers of the
Confederacy.” This may be a reunited
country, and all that sort of thing, but we
know no ex--Confederate who is w orthy of
the name that would desire or accept
membership in a G. A. R. organization.
We have no fault to find with the latter
ana no word of bitterness for its members;
we would merely defend the old heroes of
the Lost Cause against the ridiculous
charge that they or their offspring have
tiny ambition to w< ar the copper button.
■No, the G. A. R. is safe from the inva
sion of ex-Confi derates, though its mem
bers are none the less right in preserving
their organization as originally founded.
The Industrial Commission.
The new Industrial Commission created
by Congress is another recognition of the
rights of the workingman and a victory
for organized labor.
I he Industrial Commission is to inves
tigate questions pertaining to immigration,
labor, agriculture, manufacture, and busi
ness, and to report to Congress and to
suggest such legislation as it mav deem
best upon these subjects. It is also to
furnish such information as mav be made
a basis for uniform legislation by the vari
ous statis. or in order to harmonize con
flicting interests, and to be equitable to
the laborer, the employer, the producer
and the consumer. The term of the com
mission will be two years. It will make
investigations in different parts of the
I nited Stat s. The opinion is general that
Congress has created no more important
board of inquiry in many years.
Make the People the Creditors.
The present warioan now being nego
tiated is emphatic evidence ofthe fact that
the United States government need never
apply to syndicates of capitalists and
bankers when it is in need of money for
any such purpose. The people have re
sponded nobly to the appeal and show they
have as much confidence in the adminis
tration as the present Congress had when
it gave Mr. McKinley $50,000,000 with no
stipulation save that the money was to be
used for defensive and offensive funds.
This method of securing re ady funds was
long ago adopted by France and today her
people are her heaviest creditors; not syn
dicates or ephemeral corporations sudden
ly called into existence.
Pulpit Sensationalism.
• Today's Atlanta's Constitution imparts
-a gentle bint to Broughton, the pulpit
blackguard, who disgraced himself and his
church by his ultra -sensational utterance,
in Atlanta, on Sunday night, upon which
- The News commented yesterday.
Broughton has been almost universally
denounced by the g.wd people of M,. oit .
regardless of denomination, who hav
beard of his slanderous utterances and
I we have yet to find a man who endorse.-
• anything he said. It is not unlikely that
. Broughtons latest performances may reel
Atlanta of his presence and save the Tuird
1 Baptist church from further disgrace. Tae
Constitution says of him and his so-called
i sermon:
> A great many people l have an idea that
' a I Ve ?' thing ,or d Preach, r
, get up in his pulpit and pre acii an edify
ing sermon As a matter of fact, nothing
,s more difficult. Ibe preacher who is
abh to impart t u his hearers a part of the
I iweetneas and light that illuminates the
career of the Savior on earth; who is auk
to restrain a natural disposition to cut a
figure; whose heart is armed with the con
quering humility that proceeds from the
Lord and Master; who., lips have been
louc-hed, i t wre with a Hve coaJ fro;u
1 Lar ' **’ ln(l e*d, a man among men.
rhen are many such. Happy and con
tent. <1 congregations si-t under their innu
ence, and young men and women grow up
under the inspiration of their presence.
But Gieee men are not in the eye of the
world They have their place to fill and
they till it, they know their duty and they
pci form it. They take no part in that
, competition for notoriety which has done
so much in these latter days to turn the
minds of -the young people awey from the
true .source of human happiness.
\\ was called "muscular Christian
ity forty years ago han degenerated into
a species of sensationalism which it is
difficult to describe with respectful words
All that is necessary for this sort of
pii..u mug its a gill ol gab ami a string of
epithets long enough and strong enough to
amaze and disgust those who have been
taught to listen reverently to what falls
from the jiulpit in one of God’s temples.
The result aimed at is not the redemption
of sinners, nor the reformation of the
wicked, nor the repetition of beautiful and
simple truths that fell from the lips of the
, Savior. All that is too tame, Loo common
place. What the preacher wants Is noto
riety; do secure that he must create a sen
sation; and so he plunges headlong into a
horrible distortion of everything that per
' tains to the Christian ministry. He tries
’ to rake up the fire and fury of the old dis
pensation, and substitute scurrility for the
Inspiration of the prophets. He is as much
like Isaiah or Jeremiah as a scare crow is
like a man.
'He anticipates God's judgments and
would execute them if he only knew how.
Ho seizes some of the least influential
aspects of modern life, and measures so
ciety by them. With one eye on the news
paper reporter and the other on thi gen
eral public, he fires off his epithets until
, the atmosphere reeks with hell, death and
the devil and destruction. He sees licen
tiousness in an evening dress and a gamb
ling hell in a game of duplicate whist.
Abuse, slander and slangwhianging are his
stock in trade, and bigotry the chief note
of his mission.
H is no wonder that those who sit under
such a torrent of invective go away won
dering if the religion that inspires such an
exhibition is worth cultivating. If they
would go home and read a chapter or two
in ‘the gospels they would know 'that the
it’liigion of Christ is not resfionsible foil
such manifestations; but how few can bi
depended on -to do this? How many will go
on believing that this sort of frenzied sen
sationalism is a natural product of Chris
tianity!
In this way the impression made
by the sensationalist all tend to disorder
and demoralize the sensitive minds that
fall under their influence. This demoral
ization begins with the belief that this
, form of scurrility is warranted by the
teachings of Christ or his apostles and it
ends'in the conviction that bigotry is the
chief cornerstone of Christ's establishment
—though it wae a part of His mission to
bring Pharisaism into disrepute. Modern
■Pharisaism Is even worse than the ancient
1 order. Your modern Pharisee is not only
1 holler titan anybody else, but all who may
i chance to live under a different bdlief are
I in league with hell and the devil.
i Let us be thankful that these sensa
tlonalis'ts have a limit set to their influ
ence, and that limit is the common sense
of the great, body of the people. That is
1 a Iva Trier through which even a frenzied
1 pulpiteer cannot break.
? In the nature of things, there arc many
frivolous and thoughtless persons in so
i ciety; they are to be found everywhere;
f in the congregations of the churches as
j well as the outside. Nay, more—thei;e are
bad men and women in the churches and
out of them, in society and out of it. If
f we adopt tlte reasoning of the sensational
preachers, we must condemn the churches
because some of Mieir members do not
come up to the Christian standard. Birr
> no person in his right mind will adopt
such a rule. 'Religion must be judged by
its best products, by those who lead
blameless lives, and who try their utmost
to conform to every precept and example
to be found in the word.
‘ And so, on the other hand, society must
be judged by its best products, for when
the evil-minded and the frivolous are
sifted out and cast aside it will be found
that society is composed of men and
women who are forward in all works of
benevolence, and who are the mainstay of
evening dross no more means licentious
ness than a high collar means virtue.
Alas! All this is true, but sensational
preaching will go on. One may disappear
but another will arise in his place; and
vulgar-minded people will be struck by
their gutter rhetoric, and will applaud
them; and we shall again behold the glori
fication of the sensationalist.
Alas, Reed Will Return.
It begins to look as if T. B. Reed has a
"lead-pipe” einch upon the re-election
processes from his Congressional district
in Maine. Many good Republicans have
expressed the opinion that his attitude
upon the Hawaiian resolution would mean
his political death, but this does not seem
to be the case at all. Chairman Manly, of
the state committee in a speech declared:
Mr. Reed will have one of the largest
majorities he ever received. The story of
dissatisfaction in his district is all moon
shine. The people of the First district as
well as the people of Maine are all proud
of Mr. Reed's magnificent career in Con
gress of his grand intellectuality, of his
wise statesmanship. His district is devoted
to him. smd he will be re-elected hand
somely.”
Priceless Pain
•• If a price can be placed on pftfr, ’Mother's
Friend ’is worth its weight in gold as nn allevi
Rtor. My wife suffered more in ten minutes with
either of her other two children than she did al
together with her last, having previouslv used
four bottles of ' Mother's Friend.’ It is a blessing
to any one expecting to become a mother,” says
a customer.
Thus writes Henderson Dale, Druggist,
of Carmi, 111., to the Bradfield Regulator
Company, of Atlanta, Ga., the proprie
tors and manufacturers of “ Mother's
Friend.” This successful remedy is riot
one of the many internal medicines ad
vertised to do unreasonable things, but a
scientifically prepared liniment especially
effective in adding strength and elasticity
to those parts of woman’s organism whicn
bear the severest strains of childbirth.
The liniment may be use.l at any and
all times during pregnancy up to the
very hour of cottnnemenL The earlier it
is l>egun, end the longer used, the more
peifect will be the result, but it has been
used during the last month only with
great benefit and success.
It not only shortens labor and lessens
Uie pain attending it, but greatly dimin- !
ishes the danger to life o? both mother
and child, ai.d leaves the mother in a con- j
dition more favorable to speedy recovery.

El Creolla, one of the most prominent
government organs in Havana, in a recent
issue says that Captain General Blanco
has sent word to the Queen Regent of
Spain to enter into no peace negotiations,
as he believes himself sufficiently power
ful to meet and vanquish the i.American
forces in Cuba. All he asks from Madrid
is provisions for the Spanish troops in the
island.
The insurgent leader at Manila has man
aged to corflplicate matters somewhat by
proclaiming himself President of the pro
visional republic at Manila, on July 1. As
General Merritt bears with him a procla
mation declaring himself Governor-Gen
eral of the Philippines, it may perhaps re
solve the whole question into such shape
that it will be exceedingly difficult to
handle.
A country that has had to deal with the
knotty problem of “what to do with the
American Indian.” is not going to have
any serious difficulty in adjusting itself to
the new conditions in handling the Ha
waiian and Malays, whose steadily ex
panding trade with the United States pays
as good a dollar as any other country.
Hon. Richard Bland, the original free
silver champion, who was nominated for
Congress by his Missouri constituents will
undoubtedly be re-elected, as he deserves
to be. His .services in behalf of the people
are fully appreciated throughout the coun
try .
The receipts from customs last month
will be shown to be about $14,500,000, a
loss, as coriTpared with June, 1897, of about
$7,000,000. The collections from internal
revenue will show an increase approximat
ing $3,750,000.
The news that annexation had triumph
ed in the United States Congress has caus
ed a big rise in sugar stock at Honolulu.
It is said that plantation stocks have risen
to four times their par value.
If Commodore Watson takes his flying
squadron to the coast of Spain it will be
the first American expedition against a
European {tower. Great consequences may
attach to this important naval movement.

and by substituting in lieu of the words
stricken, the following words, namely,
"That the Trustees of said College and
their successors in office shall have power
and authority to procure and secure loans,
issue and negotiate bonds, or enter into
any contract which they, or a majority of
them, shall deem necessary for the use of
said College, and to secure said contracts,
bonds, loans or other negotiations by

MYSIPELAS
Two Diseases That Cause Their
Victims to Se Shunned by
Their Fellow-Man.
Springfiki.d, Mo.
Gentlemen : 1 commenced taking P.
P. P., Lippman's Great Remedy, last
Fall, for Erysipelas. My face was com
pletely covered with the disease ; 1 took
a short course of P. P. P., and it soon
disappeared. This Spring I became
much debilitated and again took an
other course, and I am now in good
condition. I consider P. P. P. one of
the best blood preparations on the
market, and for those who need a gen
eral tonic to build up the system and
improve the appetite I consider that it
has no equal. Will say, anyone who
cares to try P. P. P. will not be disap
pointed in its results, and I, therefore,
cheerfully recommend it.

Erysipelas and Scrofula cured by P.
P. P., Lippman’s Great Remedy, surely
and without fail,
Springfiei.d, Mo.
Gentlemen: Last June I had a
scrofulous sore which broke out on my
ankle. It grew rapidly, and soon ex
tended from my ankle to iny knee. I
got one bottle of your P. P. P., Lipp
man’s Great Remedy, and was agree
ably surprised at the result. The on tire
sore healed at once. I think I have
taken almost every medicine recom
mended for scrofula and catarrh, and
your P. P. P. is the best I have ever
tried. It cannot be recommended too
highly for blood poison, etc.
Yours very truly,
W. P. HUNTER.
P. P. P. cures all blood and skin dis
ease, both in men and women.
Rheumatism, which makes man’s life
a hell upon earth, can be relieved at
once by P. P. P., Lippman’s Great Rem
edy. It makes a PERMANENT cure.
P. P. P. is the great and only remedy
for advanced cases of catarrh. Stop
page of the nostrils and difficulty in
breathing when lying down, P. P. P.
relieves at once.
,P. I’. P. cures blood poisoning in all
its various stages, old ulcers, sores ui.d
kidney complaints.
Sold by all druggists.
