EUROPE EXPECTS ACTION
The Monroe Doctrine not only
demands that other countries
keep hands off, but it pledges the
tt-:.. States to maintain order
on the Western Hemisphere
and that Europe now expects the
United States to do at once.
That thp Administration now
has any settled policy many per
sons in the capital doubt, and
.-n ovnprt observers are tired
of speculating on what the Pres
ident eventually may do.
On the other hand, the con
stant movement of troops toward
the border, the completion of ar
rangements for the transportation
of forces to the frontier, the con
centration of warships in Mexi
can waters and other activities in
the Army and Navy might indi
cate some plan for positive ac
tion. But the Adminitrtation con
tinues to keep its secrets to it
self, and as the Towers, from
Asquith's statement, are not in
clined to intrude, the secrecy
will be maintained till the Ad
ministration may announce its
policy.
The Powers, have deferred to
the Monroe Doctrine, hut not the
slightest doubt prevails that they
Would be glad to see the United
States announce some policy
which would promise results in
the near future.
During the year 1912 the peo
ple of the United States consum
ed something over 62,000,000 gal
lons of mineral water, for which
they paid nearly $7,000,000. John
Harleycorn and King Ciambrinus
are not the only potentates who
impose a severe tax upon our
people.

THOSE CLAIMS FOR COL
OMBIA Before paying too much atten
tion to the claims of Colombia
for reinburscment in the Panama
canal matter, that are being sent
out innocently from room ooj, 35
Nassau street, New York, it
might be well to see whether or
not one William Nelson Crom
well is not in some way interest
ed. He made a large sum of
money in negotiating the sale of
the interests of the DcLesseps
neoole to this trovernment, and
1 -
it may be that his appetite is re
turning, and that he wants some
more.

who even claim as one of their
chief virtues that they do not be
long to any church except the
"big church," and who lose no
opportunity to traduce and vilify
the bride of the Lamb.
But to me at least, it is incon
ceivable that God should have es
tablished his church here at so
great expense to himself if it
were not. a necessity in the plan
of the world's redemption. I am
perfectly willing to admit that
on its human side it is far from
being perfect, as everything that
man touches is necessarily vitiat
ed by the mark of his own im
perfection. But such an admis
sion neither alters the question
of its divine origin nor argues
that it shall not finally be pre
sented to him blameless, not hav
ing spot or wrinkle or any such
thing. When I stand at the his
toric sources of this great insti
tution and witness the miracle of
its, formation; when I examine
the sacred material entering into
its foundation, .and see upon the
very altars of her dedication the
blood of God mingling'with the
blood of his martyr saints; and
then when I hear the authorita
tive declaration of Christ: "Upon
this rock I will found my church
and whosesoever sins ye
remit, the are remitted unto
them, and whosesoever sins ye
retain, they are retained" I can
not but conclude that despite al
the errors of judgment and the
discrepancies of practice on the
part of individual churcn mem
bers from the beginning to the
present, she nevertheless stands
out in the midst ot time as trie
one heaven sent insiiiuiion vy
whose authority alone the world
is to be saved, and as such, her
voice is noi 10 uc itni- ...

the final testimony for or against
the individual. And furthermore,
she cannot be substituted Dy any
organization or system of mans
devising. For "Whosoever snail
fall upon this stone shall be
broken, but on whomsoever t
shall fall it will grind him to
powder.
To those who are continually
pointing out the imperfections of
the present day church, it is su-
licient to say that they judge the
enterprise prematurely and un-
haritablv and their strictures are
uite aside from the main issue.
Hie church is no better than the
aggregate ot Us memoers. uic
ollegc of apostles was no better
than the personal of the men
oniposing it. Men are living
nder the warping effect of sin,
and they cannot be compeletly
hanged in a moment even by
li vine power. And as the church
lraws no distinctions, being no
1
respecter ot persons, the people
ho come into its ranks are just
the people who on yesterday
walked the ways of the world,
only having a different motive,
and it requires years of self-dis-
ipline to hew off the rough
. 1 e
omers and prepare mem lor
honorable positions in the walls
M the perfect building. You
would not stand before an un-
nilieil cathedral and pass judg
ment upon its unsightly appcar-
nce in the making; you would
nsult the architect's plan and
wait lor the finishing touches be
fore venturing a judgment upon
ts symmetry. Why not be as
reasonable with the church of
id?
And then the conditions oi
r ... 1
hurch membership are icw
imple. They are ; repentance of
1 ..kmlcci.m til
ormcr sins, anu uui
the sacrament ot christian uai-
m ; these of course carry with
them the demand for taitn m
3od.. It happens that there is
much confusion in the public
mind regarding just the thing
which should entitle a person to
. 1
become a church member anu
justify him in joining the church.
There are plenty of people wno
think that the condition of mem
bership is personal goodness
They may be impressed that it is
their duty to attach themselves
to the church but are kept back
from doing so by the thought
that they are not good enough to
join. There never was a greater
mistake. I undertake to say that
if you were to eliminate from
the church all who are unworthy
you would not have enough
members left to hold a Wednes
day night prayermeeting if they
were all present, which never
happens. Who started this thing
anyway? I challenge you to find
a single intimation in all the
word of God, that one's personal
condition good or bad is ever
made the issue in determining
whether we should or should not
join the church. It isn't there.
If formal fitness were the test, all
men might despair. I thank God
that he has sent us out wherever
men are living and commanded
us to call them from all the walks
of shame and vice and invite them
just as they are into the fellow
ship of the saints, and that no
man is unworthy to come who
trusts in a personal Saviour and
has a desire to flee from the
wrath to come.
Then, having come into the
church, there are certain privil
eges conferred upon us as be
lievers. . We become reconciled
to God through the appropriation
of Chtiait's satisfaction for sin;-!
our past life no longer stands
against us in our acfibtlnt ,. with
God ; we are justified, not by the
law, but by grace. Furthermore
we receive the gift of the Holy
r.hr.it And vet aeain. we are
admitted to the common life an.:
sacraments of the christian
brotherhood. We become a part
and parcel of God's spiritual
building whose foundation is laid
in the apostles and prophets,
Jesus Christ himself being the
chief corner stone; in wnum an
the building fitly framed togeth
er groweth unto an holy tempie
in the Lord ; in whom ye also are
builded together for an habitation
of God through the Spirit."
Finally, in consideration of
the privileges conferred by the
church upon her members tney
in turn are expected to make a
conscientious effort to live up to
the high standard of that life and
'to put on the new man, which
after God hath been created in
righteousness and holiness of
truth." They assume certain
vows and make certain promises
at the time of their reception into
the church, which cannot be
lightly set aside or disregarded
without the basest perjury."
Here followed a practical dis
cussion of church vows, and the
sermon closed with an appeal to
the congregation to maintain a
vital union with Christ and to
justify their membership in the
church by such activities as be
come the life of the gospel.
