THE latest sign of impending imperialism and militarism is the order of the President issued by Secretary. Root to reduce the regular army from 77,000 to ((,000. Will the Commoner please copy'-

KANSAS Republicans in state convention have pledged themselves to the renomination of Roosevelt ia 1904. Kansas has simply put on record a resolution every Republican has had in mind for some time.

THE Indianapolis News makes a happy and appropriate hit by calling the Democratic convention a gathering of Micawbers waiting like the famous Dickens character for something to turn up. This party has nothing to offer but factious opposition to Republican policies, nothing to hope for but Republican mistakes to give them a chance at the offices.

IN order to fill in the gap betwe? rural and city free delivery Senator Nelson has introduced a bill providing for free delivery in all towns of 5,000 population and over, or where the postoffice receipts are over $5,000 a year. Postmaster-General Payne approves the bill and says that 919 cities would be allected by it. This is merely another instance of the disposition of the Rapublican party to serve the people.

current Outlook contains En by Judge Taft on the Phil­

ippine situation which every man interested in this great question wi 1 find full of food for thought. Hegivo, the facts as he has learned them

first hand, gives good and sufiiciert reasons for every policy adopted, at does it all in such a simple, convincing manner that even the most prejudiced must read with respect. The Republican national committee could put forth no stronger campaign document than Judge Taft'sjarticle.

The state board of charities has niadT a report of the recent investigation of the 'prison at Michigan City caused by the charges of Dr. Horne. It appears toftbe [a very fair report exonerating the prison officials from the most serious charges but calling attention to certain things which mu6t be changed in order to bring the man agement up to the highest standard.

Dr. Horne alleged habitual violation of the rules. The! board interpreted the evidence to mean that in a few instances the rules were not enforced exactly as printed and on a few occasions officers used],profane language- They also said thav the rules had not been revised for several years, and owing to changed conditions many of them had become obsolete.

Dr. Horne alleged imalicious brutality toward convicts. The board sa this charge was not sustained by the evidence. Of the six convicts said to have been struck five are insane and two wore struck in self defense. While exonerating Deputy Warden Barnard from the charge of malicious brutality the report says that |he is a strict disciplinarian and at times has been unduly severe. But the greatest source of trouble according to the report is the condition «which permits insane convicts to be kept at the prison, and it is condemned in {unmeasured terms.

This of course ie [not the fault of the

prison management but of the state of Indiana for not making provision for insane criminals. In the prison the insane are all in the south cell house subject to the same rules as the sane convicts and they naturally cause disturbances and breaches of discipline. It was in the south cell house that all charges of cruelty originated. In the north cell house where there are no insane inmates there has been no complaint.

Dr. Home alleged cruel and inhuman punishment. The board denies this with two exceptions, one where an insane convict was handcuffed in a cell and another where a man with varicose veins was punished. Notwithstanding the fact that the law providing for corporal punishment is still in force neither the lash nor the paddle has been used since 1897.

Dr. Ilorne alleged the use of improper food. The board found the food to be ample and nourishing except in one instance of tainted meat, and this the evidence showed had been submitted to Dr. Horne and he ordered it cooked and used.

The board takes occasion to commend the manner in which the contract work is done, the method of enforcing the parole law, organization and administration of the institution by Warden Reid, and the system of bookkeeping in use ihei e. It recommends that the legislature make provision for the insane criminals, that the prison rules be revised, that officials who use profane language and are unduly severe be dismissed, that in the appointment of new officers the habits and moral standing of the applicants receive more serious consideration than heretofore, that board of control give more time to the prison than in the past and that the warden hereafter choose and dismiss all subordinates as an essential to the best discipline.

Commencement at Waynetown. On Thursday evening, May 29ih, the commencement exercises of the Way netown high school were held at the Christian church in Waynetown. A fine audience was present and the class address delivered by Rev. S. W^Goss, of Crawfordsville, was a most appropriate one, receiving the closest attention from first to last. The baccalaureate sermon was delivered May 25th by Rev. Burkhardt in his usual forcible manner. There were ten graduates. Iva V. Lough, Pearl Harper, Georgia Thompson, Lulu M. Claypool, Elsie Darnell, Carl Zuck, Edgar Moore, Walter Wood, Howard Clifton and Eddie M. Monroe^ '•['•'•I Scared by an Auto.

Thursday Wm. Rider, of Waynetown, was riding south of that city in his new automobile, when at a bridge he met Mrs. Simon Peacock who was driving a rather spirited horse. The latter took fright at the machine and ran off, throwing Mrs. Peacock out. Luckily she escaped serious injury, but the buggy was a complete wreck. Mr. Rider took Mrs. Peacock to Waynetown and will probably make good the damage done. The auto is an expensive animal in more ways than one.

Paul jinil Barnabas, having returned to Antiocli after their first missionary tour, continued there a ioilg time with the disc'pies, teacliinjr the word (xi v. 2S). While tli -re teachers came from Judiea. who said that the gentiles could not lie saved by faith in Christ unless they were also circumcised. There was so much dissension and disputation about it that the church at Autioch sent Paul anil Barnabas and others to Jerusalem to the apostles and ciders to lay the matter before them. The council, having heard the whole story and discussed it, came to a decision which they now send to Antioch with these brethren. 23, 24. Forasmuch as we have hoard that certain which went out from us have troubled you with words, subverting your souls.

Behold the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ and the love of Clod and the fellowship of the Spirit in this greeting from the believing Jews at Jerusalem, the apostles, the rulers in the church, to tlie gentile believers, the uncircuuicised at Antioch. .Notice that the Jewish brethren send greeting unto tlie gentile brethren. They are all brethren in Christ and acknowledge it, 25, 2G. Men that have hazarded their lives for the name of our I^ord Jesus Christ.

NATIONAL SERIES, JUNE 8.

Text of tlie Lesoon. Acts IT, Memory Verse*. .'((-.'{2—(J olden Text, Gnl. v, 1—Commentary Prepared by-

Rev. D. M. Stearns.

Thus honorably do they mention "our beloved Barnabas and Paul" because of their sufferings for Christ's sake, some of which were mentioned in last lesson, but for a fuller list of Paul's sufferings sec II Cor. xl, 23-'_8. And yet hear Paul say, "None of these tilings move me," and "the sufferings of tiiis present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us," and_"our light affliction which is bui: for a moment," etc. (Acts xx. 2-4: Horn, viii, IS II Cor. iv, 17), because he believed God. 27, 28. It seemed good to the Holy Ghost and lo us.

Observe the partnership of the Holy Spirit and the church and compare chapter xiii, 2. Every one who receives Jesus Christ receives also the Iloly Spirit, and the body becomes Ilis temple, every whit of which lie jealously desireth for the glory of God (I Cor. vl, 19, 20 as. iv, 5, R. V., margin). The Lord Jesus said to Ilis apostles when He sent them forth, "It is not ye that speak, but the Spirit' of your Father which speaketh in you" (Matt, x. 20). See also Acts v, 32 xvi, G. 7. 29. Abstain from meats offered to idols and from blood and from things strangled and from fornication, from which if ye keep yourselves ye shall do well. Fare ye well.

These the council considered necessary things, but did not say necessary for salvation, rather necessary as an evidence of salvation. There is no salvation by works revealed in the word of Cod, but only salvation by the great and finished work of the Lord Jesus, which the sinner must receive as God's free gift, purchased for him by the precious blood of Christ (Acts iv, 12 xiii, .°»8, 39 Itom. iv. 5 v, 1 Eph. ii, S. 9 Tit. iii, 5), but being saved by faith in Christ—that is, by accepting Christ, receiving Him (John i, 12s, I John v, It, 12)—then the good works are necessary as an evidence to men that we are new creatures in Christ (Eph. ii, 10 Tit. iii. S Matt, v, 16 (3a 1. vi, 1,j). The believer is expected to be an epistle known and read of all

men to the glory of God (II Cor. iii, 2, 3). There is nothing burdensome in the service of Christ. Ilis commandments are not grievous. His yoke is easy, and Ilis burden is light (I John 3 Matt, xi, 30). 30, 31. They delivered the epistle which when they had read, they rejoiced for the consolation.

These wore words of comfort instead of the words which had troubled them (verse 24). The Holy Spirit is a Comforter, and when lie speaks He brings comfort to the people of God. "Comfort ye, comfort ye, My people, saith your God." "O thou that tellest good tidings to Zion, O thou that tellest good tidings to Jerusalem, lift up thy voice with strength lift it up. Be not afraid. Say unto the cities of Judah, Behold your God!" (Isa. xl, 1, 9, niargMi.) All God's thoughts to His people are thoughts of peace, and He does not want Ilis obedient people troubled or sad. Ilis words are intended to make us glad and give us peace (Jer. xxix, 11 John xiv, 1, 27

Ps. lxxxv, S). 32. Judas and Silas, being prophet^ also themselves,' exhorted the brethren with many words and confirmed them.

A true prophet is one who is a spokesman for God. Compare Ex. vii, 1, and iv, 1G. God is the Father of Mercies and the God of all comfort, and He comforts us in all our tribulation that we may comfort others !ji their troubles by the comfort wherewith we" ourselves are comforted of God (II Cor. i, 3, 4). 33. And after they had tarried there a space they were let go In peace from the brethren unto the apostles.

It is our privilege to live in peace, the peace of God to come uivd go in peace to have peace always by all means, even perfect peace (l'hil. iv, G, 7 II Thess. iii, 1G lsa. xxvi, 3). Our God and Father is tlie God of peace, the Lord Jesus is the Prince of Peace, and if we are not enjoying the peace of God it must be because we dre not in fellowship or in some sense unbelieving, for the God of hope loves to fill His children with nil joy and peace in believing (Rom. xv, 13).
