to Our National Kxistencc—The Dun*
gern of Monopoly, Nihilism and In
fidelity Pointed Out.
[Copyright, Louis Klopsch, 1899, |
Washington, 1). C.—In this discourse T)r.
Talmage speaks of some of tho perils that
threaten our American institutions and
points out the land path shall of safety; text, Isaiah
Ixii., 4, “l’hy be married.”
As the greater includes the less, so does
tho circle of future joy around our entire 1
world include the epicycle of our own re
publio. Bold, exbilarant, unique, divine
imagery of ‘the text. At tho close of a
week in which for three days our national
capital was a pageant, and all that grand
review ami,‘bannered procession and na
tional anthems could do celebrated peace,
it tnny not.be inapt to anticipate the time
when the Prince of Peace and the Heir of
Universal Dominion shall take possession
of this nation and “thy laud shall be mar
rted.” discussing the final destiny of this

nation, it makes .all the in the
world whether we are on tho way to a
funeral or a wedding. The Bible leaves no
doubt on this subject. In pulpits and on
platforms and in places of public concourse
I bear so many of the muffled drums of evil
prophecy sounded, ns though we were on
the way to national interment, and beside
Thebes and Babylon and Tyre rep'ublio in the ceme
tery of dead nations our was to
be entombed, that I wish you to under
stand it is not to be obsequies, but nup
tials; not mausoleum, but carpeted altar;
not cypress, but orange blossoms; not re
quiem, but wedding march, for “thy land
shall be married.”
I propose to name some of the suitors
who are claiming the blind of this repub
lic. This land is so fair, so beautiful, so
affluent that it has many suitors, and it
will depend much upon your advice
whether this or that shall be accepted or
rejected. In tho first place, I remark:
There is a greedy, all grasping monster
who comes in as suitor seeking the hand
of this republic, and that monster is known
by the name of monopoly. His scepter is
made out of the iron of the rail track and
the wire telegraphy. and He does everything robbery
for bis own advantage for the
of the people. from bad to until
ThiDgs went on worse
in the three legislatures of New York, New
Jersey and Pennsylvania for a long time
monopoly decided everything. If monop
oly favors a law, it passes; if monopoly op
poses a law it is rejected. Monopoly stands
in tho railroad depot putting into his
poekets in one year $200,000 in excess of
all reasonable charges for services. Mo
nopoly holds in his one hand the steam
power of locomotion and in the other the
electricity of swift communication. Mo
nopoly has the Republican party pifrty in one
pocket and the Democratic iu the
other pocket. Monopoly decides nomina
tions and 'elections—city elections, state
elections, .national elections. With bribes
be secures the votesoE legislators, giving
tbem free passes, giving appointments to
needy relatives to lucrative position, em
ploying them ns attorneys if they are law
yer-s, carrying their goods 15 per cent, less
if thoy are merchants, and if he find a case
very stubborn as well as very important
puts down before him the hard cash of
bribery.. , easily caught
But monopoly Is not the so term of Mr. Bu
now as when during
ehanan the Legislative Committee in one
of our States 'explored and exposed the
manner in which a eertain railway com
pany had obtained a donation of public
land. It was found out that thirteen of the
Senators of that State received. $175,030
among them, sixty members of the lower
house of that State received between $5000
and $10,000 each, the Governor of that
State received $50,000, his clerk reeeived
$5000, the Lieutenant-Governor reeeived
$10,000, all the clerks of the Legislature were'di
received $5000 each, while $50,000
vided among tlieiobby agents. That thing
on a larger or smaller scale is all the time
going on in some of the States in the Union,
but it is not so blundering as it used to be,
and therefore not so easily exposed or ar
rested. I tell you that the overshadowing
curse of the United States to-day ia mo
nopoly. He puts his hand upon every
bushel of wheat, upon every sack of salt,
upon every ton of coal, and every man,
woman and child in the United States feels
the toueh of that moneyed depotism. I re

its power has never yet been tested! t
pray God its power may never be fully
tested. It would, if it had the power, leave
every house church, chapel, cathedral, school
and college in ashes.
Another suitor for the hand of this na
tion is infidelity. When the midnight ruf
in nans St. despoiled the grave of A, T Stewart
Mark’s churchyard, everybody was
shocked, hut infidelity proposes something
worse than that—the robbing of all the
graves of Christendom of the hope of a re
surrection. It proposes to chisel out from
the tomb-stones of your Christian dead the
words, the “Asleep in Jesus” and substitute
Infidelity words, “Obliteration—annihilation ”
proposes to take the letter from
the world’s Father, inviting tho nations to
virtue and happiness and tear it up into
fragments so small that you cannot read a
word of it. Tt proposes to take the eonso
latlon from the broken hearted and the
soothing pillow from the dying. Infidelity
proposes to swear iu the President of the
United States nnd tho supreme court and
the Governors of Htates and the witnesses
in the courtroom witb.their right band on
Paine’s “Age of Reason” or Voltaire’s
take “Philosophy of History.” It proposes to
away from this country the book that
makes the difference between the Unitod
States and the kingdom of Dahomey, be
tween American civilization and Bornesiau
cannibalism. If infidelity could destroy
the Scriptures, it would in 200 years turn
the civilized nations back to semibarbarism,
and then from semibarbarism into mid
night savagery until the morals of a menag
erie of tigers, rattlesnakes and chimpan
zees would be better than the morals of the
shipwrecked human race,
The only impulse in the right direction
that this world has ever had has come
from the Bible. It was the mother of
Roman law and of healthful jurisprudence.
That book has been the mother of all re-,
forms nnd all charities—mother of Etig
lish magna charta imd American Declara
tion of Independence. Benjamin Franklin,
holding that Holy Book in his hand, stood
before an infidel club in Paris and read to
them out of the prophecies of Habakkuk,
and the infidels, not knowing what botfk
it was, declared that it was the best poetry
they had ever heard, That book brought
Oeorge Washington down,on his knees in
the snow at Valley Forge and led the dy
ing Prince Albert to ask some ofie to sing
‘ ‘Rock of Ages."
I tell you that the worst attempted crime.
of the century is the attempt to destroy
this book. Yet infidelity, loathsome, stench
ftil, leprous, pestiferous, rotten monster
stretches out its band, ichorous with the
second death, to take the baud of this re
public. It stretches it through out through seduc
tive magazines, and lyceum lec
tures and through caricatures of religion,
It asks for all that part of the continent al
ready fully settled, and the two-thirds not
yet occupied. It says: with “Give keys me all east
the Mississippi, the of the
church and with the Christian printing
presses—then give me Wyoming, give me
Alaska, give me Montana, give me Colo
rado, give mo all the States west of the
Mississippi, and I will take those places and
keep them by right of possession long be
toro the gospel can be fully intrenched.”
.But there is another suitor that presents
j 1 ' 6 claim for the hand of this republic. He
* 9 mentioned in the verse following my
text where it says. “As the bridegroom re
joiceth over the bride, so shall thy God re
joice over thee.” Lefore Columbus and his
120 men embarked on the Santa Maria, wonderful the
Rinta, and the Nina, for their
voyage, what was the last thing they did.
They sat down and took the holy sacrament
of the Lord Jesus Christ. After they caught
the first glimse of tris country and the gun
of one ship had announced it to the other
vessels that land had been discovered, what
was the song that went up trom^ull the
three G loria ia excelsis. After
Columbus and bis . 120 men had ground, stepped
from the ship s deck to the solid
what did they do. They all knelt and con
secrated the new world to God. What did
the HuguenCjS do after they landed in the
Carolinas. What did the Holland reiu„ees

National Forever.
A writer in Cornhill gives some
humorous notes of English school ex
aminations. Apparently national
characteristics come out ns vividly as
individual ones, at these encounters
between the learned and the unlearned.
One day, an examiner was listening
to a class of Irish boys, in London, as
they repeated Macaulay’s “Horatins.”
“Would three soldiers, nowadays,”
he asked, “be likely to hold a bridge
against a whole army?”
“No, sir,” the boys answered.
“Would three Englishmen, for ex
ample?” he continued.
“No, sir,” said the class.
“Would three Scotchmen?”
They again dissented.
“Would three Irishmen?”
’ “Please, sir,” shouted an excitable
little fellow, “one Irishman would
do it!”

Transaction Between Quest and Clerk.'
Joe Walsh, night clerk, was a party
to a deal the other night which made
him $3 richer aud which he is still
studying about. It was getting along
toward the theatre hour when one of
the guests of the hotel came down
stairs with his valise, aud, after pay
ing his bill, requested that the clerk
keep his valise until he came back
from the show, as he was going out on
a late train. He also pulled a $5 hill
©ut of his pocket and asked the clerk
to change it. Walsh looked in his cash
drawer, hut found he did not have it.
“Well,” said the guest, “just keep the
$5 for security and lend me a dollar.”
The clerk did so and the guest de
parted. He came back about 11 o’clock
and, being in a hurry to catch the
train, rushed up to the desk. He threw
down four silver dollars and the clerk
gave him the .$5. It appeared all right.
W’henthe guest had gone Walsh looked
over his cash and found himself $3
ahead. :
"Well,” said Walsh, after he had j
puzzled his head for a while to see
how it happened, “that man needs a
bookkeeper. It was lucky for me he
didn't make a mista ke the o ther way.”
Expjnsive Plovers’ Eggs.
A French contemporary grumbles be
cause, owing to tlie greediness of the
English, plovers’ eggs cost 25 cents
apiece in Paris. But the complaint
need not be taken seriously, as the
same authority quotes $1 per egg as
the price current in London, asserting,
moreover, that as much as $15 was bid
for a couple of specimens recently. On
the Continent the eggs of the plover
are not by any mean? so highly appre^
dated as with us. The late Prince
Bismarck, however, was particularly
fond of them, and his admirers used
to send them to hiifi by the thousand
from the plains of North Germany.—

Concerning the Shape of an Anaesthetic.
It is a Bath physician who tells the
following:
“Some time ago I happened to spend
the night in a country town not far
from Bath, and it happened that there
was stopping at the same hotel an
itinerant eye specialist.
"We drifted inlo a conversation, and
during the course of the eveniifjg he
told me of some of the marvellous
operations he had performed on tlie
eye. One ease in particular he spoke
of that caused me considerable aston
ishment, for I didn’t know, I confess,
that the operation had been success
fully performed. He said he had re
cently taken out a patient’s eye, scraped
the back of it and returned it to its
proper place. The patient, lie said, was
never troubled by bad eyesight after
ward.
“ ‘That was a difficult operation, doc
tor,’ said I.
: ‘Yes,’ said he, ‘it was.’
s ‘I suppose you found it neoassary
to employ an anaesthetic?’
