LETTERS FROM OUR READERS

Hell. The bihle hell is a condition of death in the grave, pit or hell. Sheol, Hebrew; Hades, Greek; and hell is an English word. All three of these words have the same meaning. The w r ord hell is translated “hell” 31 times, “grave” 31 times and “pit" 3 times. If grave is a red hot place of torture, then hell is a red hot place of torture; likewise pit is a place of torture. But the words, eternal ’ torment, eternal torture, immortal soul, are not in the bihle. The word hell is a condition of death in the grave, pit or hell, and hell fire is perdition; utter destruction; eternal death. Examine Psalms 16: 10, Acts 2:27-31, for the first time appointed for man once to die. The second death, is no place spoken of in the bihle, as a condition from whence there is a resurrection of the dead. Rev. 2:11, Rev. 21:8, Rev. 20,:6, 2nd Peter 2:12, 2nd Thessalonians 1 :9. There is a difference between adamae death and everlasting death. Judas Iscariot was the son of Perdition, the definition of perdition is utter destruction. Flvidently there is no hope for Judas, the son of Perdition. He died an eternal death from whence there is no resurrection. This is the bihle narration of absolute facts, and I believe in a bible hell: all other hells I know nothing about: only what there is in the bihle is all 6 1 know.—JOHN CASEY.

Citrolax Users say it is the ideal, perfect laxative drink. M. J. Perkins, Green Bay, Wis., says: “I have used pills, oils, salts, etc., but were all disagreeable and unsatisfactory. In Citrolax I have found the ideal laxative drink.” For sick headache, sour stomach, lazy liver, congested bowels, Citrolax is ideal.-—A. F. Long.

Why the Progressive Party Is Gaining

Those republicans who feel aggrieved at the Progressive Party, claiming that the Progressives have broken up the Republican party, do not seem to understand the real cause of the decline of the Republican party as a national party. The truth is, and it is plain to every Progressive and should be equally plain to every Republican, that the Progressive party came into existence and is rapidly gaining a firm foothold in the minds of the voters, because of the fact that the Republican party, like any party long in power, became the tool of certain men and certain interests. These men, such men as Cannon, Barnes, Penrose and others of their kind obtained such a hold upon the party councils that they used a once great party to further their own private ends in the interest of great combinations of business, which in return paid them in favors by way of assistance in their political campaigns, and in various other ways, as disclosed by the investigations recently conducted by the government.

The standpat theory of government is “ourselves first and what is left the other fellow can have,” with an occasional concession to the demands of the public in order to allay suspicion and retaih power. The people are getting next to this sort of game and the end of such methods is in sight. Since the organization of the Progressive Party, the old Republican party is left hopelessly in the hands of the old standpat element, and this is coming more and more to be true of the Democratic party also, a fair evidence of this fact is disclosed by the nomination of Roger Sullivan for Senator in Illinois, the friend of Republican and Democratic standpats, the friend of Lorimer, and so on. Out of it all the Progressive Party, opposed by all the bad elements in both old parties is getting such a foothold in the minds of people all over this country, south as well as north, that its success within a reasonable time is assured.
