MARSHALL URGES PAROLE OF RADER

(Continued From First Page)

prosecuted Bader and the three commissioners on the charge of altering a public record, by changing the figures in Bader’s bid on one bridge from *1,240 to *1.400, after the contract was let. The trial of the four men at Rens-

-e!aer was begun, -but after two .tne.-srs only had been u^ed. Longa-;; :hrvw up the case and a verdict of not guilty was return-j ed. Bader's case firs' attracted widespread attention, when, on March IS. 1910, Governor Marshall pa-1 roled Bader, permitting him to remain out of prison, while his ap-i peal., to the supreme court was pending. *1 here was indignation at the Governor's action in many quart.-rJ, :•>.•! one letter at least; trom Ja.-per. county infornied the Governor .hat "We wan: grat eliminated from public contracts A-'-'* i Bauer was. found guilty byi a jury in Jasper county, some little time elaj'.-i d l.etore lit- was sep-; tt reed lit. was allowed to go' !: ;a'.e to W; a a mac and look after; his business.

P. j Shirer to lake Badef to tin pentituuarv. Shir r dirobeyed the order of the court, aid tuok Bader to Wiuamac. where lie turned aim loose, while M. M. Hathaway, president,, oi the bridge company, a prominent democratic politician and a friend o 'Govta no: Mai;hall, hastened to Indianapolis and was successful in obtaining a parole. Judge Hanley cited Sinrer for contempt i:i turning loose a prisoner he had been ordered to take the penitentiary. Shirer swore* he did so the advice of Hathaway anil George Williams. an attorney for Bader, who had told him that tie had five days in which to obey the court's order. Hathaway and Williams made affidavit that this wa- not true, and shirer was fined SIOO for contempt oi court.

When news o. the action of Governor Marshall in paroling Bader reached Jasper county, the grand jury again got busy, the six additional graft indictments were returned, and the alteration :of public records affidavit was- filed, j Citizens of the defrauded county at that time Were demanding that ! j Bader be brought to justice, in 1 j spite of the treatment different J j from that of other convicts he I j was receiving. Examination of! ( Bader's bridges fay professors of | i engineering- at Purdue" developed. I iit was said, that Bader usually putj i up cheaper bridges in Jasper county j titan ; he was paid for. .( i- The supreme court about a year [ago affirmed Bader’s conviction. refusing to hold that he should Igo free because there had been an (absence of quotation marks at the j end of the copy of the fraudulent [claim set out in the indictment, i and also refusing to support his j contention that the ‘charge that he j 'knowingly presented a false claim.’’ j did not charge that he knew the j claim was false. After the decision iof the supreme court-. Bader was j allowed to go to prison without j guard. Within six- months of the i time lie arrived at tne pgisoh. he was desired as a witness in a civil suit in Winamac. Governor Marshall granted him a temporary parole. . Warden Fogarty allowed Bader to leave the prison five days before he was* waited as a witness. and as a result he spent Thanksgiving day at home with his family. . Governor Marshall suggested to Fogarty that if he thought Bader could be trusted to do so, he be permitted to leave the prison unattfeded. Hence, he went home on - his, vacation - from prison without any guard to look after him. Bader is hot yet eligible to come before the board with a petition for parole because he has not yet served the' minimum sentence, but Governor Marshall made the request’'“on his own hook.”

THE SAVIOR'S TEACHINGS BROOKLYN TABERNACLE BIBLE STUDIES

REPROVE WORKS OF DARKNESS. Ephesians v, 11-21—June 30. “Wint is a mocker, strong drink is raging.”— Proverbs xx, 1. ° : - y - *■ IGHT and darkness are used as | figures and as synonyms for truth and untruth, righteousness and sin. Thus, “God is Light and in Him is no darkness at all.” Thus also Jesus said, “I am the Light of the world.” Thus also He said of His followers when leaving them, “Ye are the light of the world;” “Let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify vour Father” in heaven. On the contrary. Satan is styled the “Prince of darkness,” and his ruie of unrighteousness Is styled “the kingdom

of darkness;” and those subject to his inlluence are styled “t h e children of darkness.” E y i 1 works are styled “works ,of darkness.” "When our t first parents sinned t hey forfeited fellowship with God and thus became children of the Adversary. Je-

sus said to stich; in Ilis day. “Ye are of your father, the Devil, because his works ye do.” (John viii, -14.) Thus our entire race came under the ’influence of the darkness of sin and death, whic h has lasted for G,GOO years. We have the promise of a glorious morning when Messiah shall reign, when Satan shall he bound for a thousand years, when "the Sun of Righteousness shall arise with healing in Hi- beams." God's promises respecting it are figuratively called “light,” and these constitute the Bible. Light Reproves Darkness. There are not many light-bearers in the world. The census reports 400,000.0*<0 of Christians; but, alas, the vast majority give no sign of ever having seem the true light, and many of those who did receive it hid it. Surely it is as true today as it was in Jesus* day that a very small number of humanity, comparatively, have the true light. These are very precious to the Lord. He < alls theni Ilis saints, Ilis jewels, and tells us that at Ilis second coming, prim- to the setting up of His Kingdom to rule the world, they shall be gathered to Himself: “Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the Kingdom of their Father” (Matthew xiii. 43b scattering all the darkness and miasma us sin, sorrow, ignor- 1 aiwe and superstition. When the Father shall give iheso the Kingdom (Luke vii. 32>. as joint-heirs with their Redeemer, the Prince of Darkness will be bound for a thousand year*. In today's lesson the Apostle is explaining the re.- pensiMiity of these light ltearors They represent Gcxl in this dark world; they represent Ilis Justice,* Wisdom. Love and Power. They are net able to let all of this glorious light shine, hilt they can do much to bring in a twilight to some. These are not expected to convert the world, but to find a sufficient number of similar characters to complete the foreordained membership in the Bride class. Faithfulness and zeal in this service will determine whether or not they will be worthy a place in the Kingdom and, if worthy, how high an honor! We must "have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.” llow searching! how positive! More than this: we must not be content with a negative opposition. However wisely we may seek to fulfil these requirements, they are sure

"Ye are the light of the world "

Apostle does not moan that we shall undertake to reprove everything out of accord with the Divine will, because he mentions the things to be reproved, saying, "It is a shame even to speak of those things which ,are done of them in secret”—uncleanuess, im- | pure practices, etc. We must manifest our disapproval when we are iu close contact with such things. It may not mean that we shall publicly denounce the evil, but it surely does mean that our lives shall be so contrary to all sinful and impute practices that all may take knowledge that we have learned of Jesus! Walk Ye Circumspectly. In view of these things, said the Apostle, the followers Of Jesus should be wise, redeeming the time, ijurehasing it back from world!# cares and pleasures, to have the more to use in the Master’s service! To do this will require that we study the Ford's will. If others are drunk With excessive use of wine, let us be filled with a different kind of wine—the Holy Spirit. If others seek to find joy and solace in intoxicants, let us find ours in being filled with the mind of Christ. This spiritual refreshment will lead us to psalms and hymns, and to make merry iD our hearts to the Lord.

"Works of darkness.”

to bring the enmity, disfavor, disappointment of many we love. But as good soldiers of the Lord Jesus we must) be loyal. Tie 'that is asha me d of the Master and Ilis Word and the principles for which He stands, of him will the Savior be ashamed. Evidently the

The Sage of Monticello

It was at Monticello that Jefferson prepared the draught of instructions for Virginia’s delegation to the congress which met at Philadelphia. His activity in the cause of the colonies brought him into special disfavor with the British and it was planned to capture Jefferson at Monticello through Tarleton’s raiders. Jefferson was warned that the enemy was coming to Monticello, and he sent his family away, and he himself escaped on

horseback. The mansion at Monticel--Ithanks to Tarleton’s orders, escaped serious pillage or damage. Though the house itself was not plundered or burned, the rest of Jefferson’s property suffered severely at the hands of the enemy. All the stock and farm products that might be of service were carried off, -the rest be-., ing wantonly destroyed. When Jefferson resigned from the Washington cabinet in 1704 he returned to Monticello to enjoy a retirement which he intended should last j many years. But this was not to be. j lie was elected 'Vice-president in 1 179G,»ah(l in 1800 he was chosen pres- ! ident. ! In March, ISOO, Jefferson, after a ! nearly continuous public service of forty-four j ears, retired to Monticello and to private life, but he was so seriously impoverished that he was not sure of being allowed to leave Washington without arrest by his creditors, but this, fortunately, he'was I able to prevent. Toward the close of his life, however, he became distressingly embarrassed in his circumstances. In 1814 he sold his library to ! congress for $23,000, but through in- ! dorsing a note for a friend he was . completely ruined, and was in danger of being compelled to surrender Monticello and seek., shelter for his last < days in another abode." But wealthy friends came to his assistance with I a considerable sum of money. “No cent of this,” he wrote, “ wrung from the taxpayer. It is the pure and 1 unsolicited offering of love.” In the last seventeen years of his life Jefferson lived like a patriarch among his admiring friends. “The sage of Monticello” was the most prominent man n private life in the country. Even > the year of his death he was a at moral force in the land. As the former president, the purchaser of Louisiana, the chastiser of the Barbary pirates, the founder of the University of Virginia, as the scholar, the philosopher and the savant, he was known the World over. Every day for at least eight months in the year brought its contingent of guests to Monticello. People of wealth, fashion, men of office, professional men, military and civil, lawyers, doctors, Protestant clergy, Catholic priests, members of congress, foreign ministers,'missionaries, Indian agents, tourists, artists, , strangers, friends. Some came from affection and respect, some from curiosity; some to give or receive advise or instruction, some from idleness, some because others set the example. And everybody who could not visit “tke sage of Monticello” at least, gave thought to the great retired ipan of the nation. Jefferson retained his health nearly to his last days, and had the happiness of living to the fiftieth anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. He died at Monticello at 12:40 p. m. on July 4, 1826. He was buried in his own graveyard at Monticello, beneath a stone upon which was engraved an inscription prepared by his own hand: “Here Is buried Thomas Jefferson, author of the Declaration of Independence, of the Statute of Virginia, for Religious Liberty and Father of the University of Virginia.” “The sage of Monticello” stands today next to “the father of his country” in the esteem of the United Senates. And this is as it should be, for his wise counsel helped to establish this nation as firmly as did the arms and statesmanship of George Washington.
