EDITOR'S CHAIR, HOW THINGS LOOK FROM OUR STAND POINT. Th-3 Oninion of The Editor and the Opinion of Others vhich we Can Endorse on the Various Topics of the Day. Equal rights to all, ppeeial prlri lego to none, politicians not except ed. What lo you rise to say abo'U the great prosperity of the farmers and merclunts? You need have no fear so long as tho people rule. But you need Jear when the people are ruled. While our politicians are getting up their booms, we wish they w. uld get up a boom to relieve the people. Between a modus vivendi and presidential candidates at Washing ton, tho people have had but like thought, as to wfeat they need. Fer.-onal abuse is not argument, and when a man abuses in a discus sion, he has a weak side to defend or either too weak to defend it. If C ingress can't pass some good laws for the benefit and the relieve of the people, why not try to repeal some of the oad ones it has passed ? Tho people asked for free coinage of silver. Wall Street answered no. Tho free c unago bill is dead. Is Congress in session for the people or for Wall Street ? The State Press has even changed its time. It now sees the Reform ers are in it, and unless all 'sign are for naught, they are likely to stay in it. The St Louis platform honestly, fearlessly and justly demand; Money i Of the people. Transportation -I Bvthi people. Land (.For the people. The war is upon you. Ypu are soon o have the test applied. Let every man bi) bold and true to his cause. Xot only thaf, but let him be willing to sacrifice time for the causa of reform. The poorest excuse lor apolitiei-m, to day, Is the funny and witty man. Puns aud witticisms may do to amuse, but it so happens this year that the people are askir.g more than amusements. They want relief, speedy and substantial. Our State Supreme Court has filed an opinion in a liquor case from Charlotte in which it hold3 that liquor license fs a personal trust. They hold that the person holding license to retail liquors is personally responsible lor the violations of law by his clerk, though his clerk know his aetions to be illegal. - The act of the employee is the act of the pi in cip'e. HAVE YOU P50SPERED Ttte Ilepublicans of Indiana, in convention assembled, a few weeks since endorsed the following : "V'e endorse the brilliant admin istration of Benjamin Harrison, un der which tha country has prosper ed." Prospered indeed ! Who has pros' pered ? Farmers, county and town merchant?, doctors and lawyers, Just think of such impudence. More failures in the year of 1891 than any one m our History, is ever were there so many unemployed men now seeking work. The records of the Metropolitan city of this "prcs- percus" nation ?how that 32,000 people were turned out of homes in 1S90, and now 40,000 men in the city of Chicago are objects of chari ty because they are not able to get woTk. That is very prosperous. Cotton raisers what say you of such a "trilliant administration" under which you have "prospered." Wheat larmers how does it strike you, when wheat is to-day demand ing the lowest price ever known in its history. Would you call it very prosperous whon you brought your corn, peanuts and tobacco to market for Ciish sale ? Yet these "prosper ous" times are endorsed. The Chicago Herald says of the above resolution ."How dare this greedy gang of spoils-hunters adopt such a resolu tion in tha face, of sveh a record? How dare they insult-the awfu mNerv of the masse-? The wrath I will scorch and crusli these mockers ot humn woe." . JL ii n THEY ARE FINDING OUT. The lar a r don't know how poor he is. If he once Gnds out, let the politicians and their master?, the money changers, beware! But while he is finding out, his children will grow up in ignorance, and his wife din of over wort. Hamlin jQarland, m "A Spoil of Office." DOES IT SHOW A SETTLED POLICY? Should it come about by some un foreseen event that the Alliance or ganization she old be swept into ob- ivion and every vestige of Its form uid organization vanished, "Would there be left 'foot-print.' in the sands of time'?" It was only three years ago that a platform of principle was parsed by a St. Louis Convention, almost unanimous endorsement being giv en it. lhe delegates assembled aain the following ye.nr at Ocala and direct from the people unanim ously endorsed those same princi- es. Another year was passed, though it was a year ot the bitterest oj -position and vilest abuse by the plutocrais, opposing our measures and fighting our leaders, yet at In dianapolis not a dissenting vote was recorded against our platform and each sub Alliance throughout the ength and breadth of tho land en thusiastically again hailed them and enthusiastically endorsed them. Docs that show an unsettled policy ? "During these three years. the Alliance lias been a terror to peliti- cians ; it has uneased heart less and unscrupulous money lenders and driven slep from the eyes of wick ed plutocracy. It has caught and now holds firmly the teins of half a dozen state governments. It has named three United States senators and thirty-eight representatives in the lower house." Thenjhink of it, and think of the pur.y effort to tell you that the "Alliance is dead." "It can only last but a short time at least." But when we see the people so thorough ly awaked to their true condition and their neeas, we can hardly lim it our expectation for its accomplish ments in the future. TREATMKXT OF NEW YORK J$Y CONGRESS. In the city and county of Xew York more than G7 per cent, of the tariff, taxes of the country are col lected. Over 50 per cents, of the exports are from this port. Tho appropriations to maintain the rivers aud harbors of the country are $20,000,000. Of this munificent sum 5170,000 is given to the port of Xew York. Is this a square deal jNew Herald. Certainly, for Xew York receives back all the money she pays out in the shape of customs-duties and also a commission or percentage of profit upon that money. Xew ork pays no pait of the expenses of the gov ernment by standing at the portals of the United States and collecting a heavy tariff. She maks the country- refund it all and more too. But if the government were sup ported bv an income-tax or by a direct-tax Xew York would pay her due propor.ion of its expenses.-- Kichmon Dispatch. 9L :o:- The Campaign will be unusu ally interesting this year.

HIGH TARIFF IN A FICTION. The. Republican campaign man agers in Washington are credited with circulating a "tariff novel" as part of a campaign of education. The people, however, have finished their education in that branch of instruction. They know the tariff better than a book. It was appro priate, though, that a work of fiction should have been the chosen means propagandism. Exchange. TYiiat Ails You?

Firht This progress In revelation i ch arly marked n the method rind tho matter cf revelation. The Bible ia not a rowlation itself. Iti Mmplythf. history c-f a revelation. Every book of tho Bible first has its local parpofe, its locnl historic setting, and haa its univer sal application of truth in and through that local, primal pr.rpo.ie. The Book of Genesis mnht be raul in this light We have here an account of creation. It is simply aboard for one to maintain that it was meant for an to.h.ut.aiv, and com plete utterance upon subject for all' time. . We must ask the question: "For what;. was the book of Genesis pnmarily wi,t ten? To whom was it primarily ad dressed?" We find it was the fa t-i lcn son God taught this infant class of the human race. It was written for. the purpose of this primary instruction. It teaches one grand thought, teaches it comxiletedy, and that thought is tho orie Ged in the midst cf m oa ns that wor shiped thousands of gods. The f".rrt lessen to he taught wa.s the grand f in ception cf tlie one, ctem.-d, in.'itjiie Gexb Kot only the one God, hut that God im minent in nature. iod e;-.:d, "Let there be light, and there wan light."
