TIIOSK western newspaper corres-1 pondents are mighty liars, and while Teddy Roosevelt hunted in the westhis exploits were rendered almost as ridiculous as those of Bryan who hunted down a tame cat in Texas last winter and rode an ostrich race.
A GREAT many of the papers and magazines are apparently much exercised over the question, "What shall we do with our ex-Presidents?" After reading the latest from Messrs. Cleveland and Harrison Tiik Jouk'.nAl^is inclined to believe that the best'thing to do with them would be to take their hammers away from them.
A. I-:. ResiUV, the man Speaker Artman appointed as chairman of his comxnittee on education, takes occasion to make a sneering reference to the nonstate schools. If Reser has his way every greedy graft that is proposed by the state school trust will go through the committee and the legislature.
The appointment of Reser was an insult to the non-state schools and a complete renunciation! by Artman '.of his position of two years ago.
Saturday was a sad and memorable day for the people of Crawfordsville and Montgomery county. No truer or more devoted son of old Montgomery ever lived than the good man, the house of whose earthly tabernacle was then consigned to earth. Mr. Mount never tired in bespeaking the excellencies of his native county. •1L loved lu.*r rocks and rills
Her woods and templed bills." lie loved her people and the citizenship of any one of them was always a passport to his graces, an obligation on his time and best endeavor. lie was loyal, intensely loyal, to his home and in honoring his memory the people of Montgomery county do honor to S themselves.
Our present legislature seems to be making a pretty strong play in the name of economy and the press gallery in Indianapolis is applauding vociferously. The long suffering tax payers would undoubtedly join in "the shoutin' and stompin' if this economical play would direct itself against the state school graft. Mr. Speaker Artman was wont to be heard in vigorous denunciation of this outrage. He says nothing now, however, and went back pn his record by appointing a state school man as chairman of the committee on education. Can it really be, as has been intimated, thp.t "things is changed since Betsy d'.cJ and that
Mr. Speaker Artman is ^..clng to the music of the educational trust?
The one criticism made by the Democratic press, rather let us say a part of the Democratic press, on Governor Mount's administration, was his refusal to turn over to Kentucky cutthroats two political refugees. A very few papers have had the bad taste to repeat this criticism at this time, and as an answer The Journal feels prompted to quote the words of Gov. Mount in refusing the requisition Said he: "It inhuman to permit maddened of another commonwealth to dra away citizens, even though only tem porarily abiding here, to a place of persecution, where, self-confessedly, law is a travesty and justice is a mock erv. The enormous reward oll'ei
fusing the requisition,
for the conviction of Goebel's slayer is of itself a monstrous evil—an incentive) of morai and physical assassination--the sacrifice of innocent men to person al greed and partisan avarice."

Analyzing the export statistics of the years 1809 and 1000. and finding an increase of $100,000,000 in a single year, the FmutknbluU, asks: "Do not such an enormous increase and the correspondingly rapid progress in productive and selling capacity constitute an imminent danger for all competing nations?"
Iu answering this question the Frerudcublati points out that the United States has now one-fifth of the entire gold and silver money of the world that the] steel plants of the United States, which two decades ago wore in their infancy, to-day control the markets of the world, and dictate either directly or indirectly the prices of iron and steel in all countries: thac American tools, by reason of their excellent quality, stand above competition in nearly the whole world: and that in sewing machines, bicycles, and agricultural implements of every kind the

One of the many delightful events which will ever be associated with the pleasant memories of the past, occurred at the home of Mr. and Mrs. James Galdwell, two and one-half miles northeast of Shannondale, Wednesday evening, Jan. 10, 1 !I01, the occasion being the marriage of their daughter. Lulu May, to Mr. Ezra T. Engle, of Rural Route No. 1. Promptly at 8 o'clock while the'beautiful strains of the wedding march were being rendered by Mrs. A. L.

[Copyright, 1PM, by American 'ress Association.] 34. "But when the Pharisees had heard that lie liud put the Saddueees to silence they wore athcred together." The gatherings together against Ilim from the Babel days of ien. xi to the last one of Rev. xix. 10. are very many, but they are all the work uf sntan and shall be over-
how they might entangle Him in Mis talk, so they sent unto Ilim their disciples with the Llerodians (verses 15. 10) with a question eonceniing tribute, the Saddueees follow with their resurrection question, ami now the Pharisees alone with the law question. Su ihe world, ration ]lisn and formalism, ail unbelieving, are ever questioning and arguing in their rebellion against God.
S"i. 'Master, which is the great coininam:: jilt in the law?" This is the question of the lawyer who represents mi this occasion the unbelieving Pharisei s. who, going about to establish their own righteousness, will not submit to the righteousness of God. They think not of honor from God. but do all tilings to be seen of nu txxiii, 5). They know nothing of humility and conviction of sin they thiuk only of praise of men and high places on earth. As we road or hoar the Ten Commandments which were spoken by God Himself out of the midst of the fire (Dent, iv, 33) do we consider llis greatness and holiness and the holiness which He requires as revealed iu this law 37, 3S. Our Lord Jesus puts the first four commandments into one and calls it the first and great commandment, for it covers our relation to God, and that is the first great thing to be considered. What n*n think of us is of no account unless we are right with God, and we arc not right with Ilim if anything lias the place in our heart which He alone should have. We must have no other god, no one or nothing else bowed down to. Ilis name alone exalted, no works but Ilis #rrought in us. As it will be in the kingdom, "all lofty looks and haughtiness of men bowed down and the Lord alone exalted" (Isa. ii, 11, IT), so it should be now and will be. by His grace, in every redeemed one. "That (Sod may be all" is the highest point in Scripture (I Cor. xv, 2S). 30, 40. He sums up the last six commandments in "Thou shalt love thy neighbor as which very same words are found in Lev. xix, IS, just as
Ilis summary of the lirst four is found in Dent, vi, ". for He is only bringing to their minds things whieli they knew or should have known, being written in their law.

"Well, Master, thou hast said the truth, for there is one God, and there is none other but lie, and to love Ilim with all the heart and with

Mrs. Susan Lee, aged 53 years, died of pneumonia last Friday at her home 110 north Walnut street. The funeral took place at the A. M. E. church Sunday afternoon at half past two o'clock.

Returning home he found the lost set and, putting it in bis mouih for safe keeping, hurried back to the jeweler's to have that set used instead of the new opal.

On March 11, at Rangun, Burma, Rev. D. L. Hrayton, in his ninety-second year, having been 02 years a missionary, began his last message to the Karens thus:
aiu
others,
as my last message—
What think ye of Christ? You cannot be right in the rest unless you thiuk rightly of Him." He gave a clear statement blood other things, "If we are not using all the abilities God has given us to make known this gospel truth that Christ isi the only Saviour, we are without excuse." 43, 44. "He saith unto them, IIow, then, doth David in spirit call Him Lord, saying, The Lord said unto my Lord." In answer to Ilis question, Whose Son is He? thej' replied, "The Son of David," and then lie asked this question, quoting
of the gospel of salvation J*y the of Christ alone and said, among
Ps. cx, 1, and summarizes it in the next verse in these words, "If David, then, call Ilim Lord, how is He his son?" Iu Mimpriss" harmony of the gospels there is this note: "This question can only be answered aright, as recognizing the fact that Christ proceeded forth and came from Ilis Father in heaven, and thus is David's Lord, while as being man He was 'of tfie house and lineage of David' and so was David's son." In Rev. xxii, 10, lie says of Himself, "I am the root and the offspring of David." He was truly God and truly man, equal with man, equal with God. This the Pharisees would not allow, but on one occasion took up stones to stone Him, because, as they said, lie being a man, made Himself God iJohn x. 33). Apart from some uf His miracles, which were never duplicated through any of the apostles, as far as we know, one of the strongest words concerning His divinity is that in the beginning of His prayer, "And now, O Father, glorify Thou Me with the glory which I had with Thee before the'world was" (John xvii, 5). 40. "And no man was able to answer
Him a word, neither durst any man from that day forth ask Him any more questions." Truly God gave Him a mouth and wisdom, which all His adversaries were not able to gainsay nor resist (Luke xxi. ir». and He promises the same to His followers. It is written of Stephen's adversaries, "They were not able to resist the wisdom and the spirit by which he spake" (Acts vi, 10). Mark says in connection with the close of our lesson (chapter xii. 37). "The common people heard Him gladly." God are still hidden from the wise and prudent and revealed unto babes. Blessed are the common people who hear.
