CHRISTIAN POLITICS.
Preached Ify iv Concord Minister
Parties On tbe L,tiuor Trfllc.
0a Sunday night last Rev. J R
Moose, pastor cf :B-jys' Chapel at
Cannonville, preached a sermon on
"Christian Politics." While he
scathed both old parties on tbt
liquojr business of the country, hib
sermon, jwaa I not sensational. He
preached f ro m E x od us 18:21. ' We
publish a few extracts from his ser-
mon.
He began by eajing:
1c is the duty of j every man
to
vote. He owes this to In noa, nis
country, und himself. Every man

time is almost at hand wbrn we may
vote, ana rwe snouiu consiuer wen
before we vote bnail our votes oe
cast for the good of the people or
for the.benetit of our party r t
The first question with many men
n regard to a candidate is not "Does
be fear God?" but is-he "a straight
Democrat, Republican, or Populist, '
as the case may be. So it is the
party and; not tbe principle at which
many men are looking today. j
I thank God that no man has a I
ring in my e ose, an d . when he tries I
to pot one there ! shall out-kick a I
mule. T expect to vote as I beheye
God would have me vote; and every I
other! man should do the same.

Clad millions in our land, who would

there is nothing left with which to

A vote for either of the old parties
is a vote for liquor. Did you get
that ? There is not a legauzea

There are' three parties in the field

destruction for which , will

Let us look at some of the men
for whom we are asked to vote.
Take Mr; McKinley; he is a Metho I
Idist, and yet in violation of the rules
of his church ne is a party and
partner in the liqucr business , by
renting his property for two saloons.
Take Mr. Bryan; he is a Presby-
terian, and they say he takes his
Bible with him and pravs as he

high license and opposed, to 'prohi

which he controlled that he made

get that?- ' . .
