TERRli HAtTTE SATURDAY EVIHMfW MAIL'

v.| FATE! Hi:

Editor Mail: Husks & Nubbins Article 256'contains one thought among so many good ones that pleases me so well rise to speak.

Fate is freedom for the intelligent it is the visible culmination of law, and those laws, sure and undeviating, known and understood by intelligent people, are trusty servants to do their bid* ding.

It is this knowledge that enables man to point his rod of steel skyward and stand fearlessly by while the lightning travels harmlessly down it. ft*

It is this knowledge that euables^than to provide the best products of the earth and bring them to his home yea, and build that home in the best, and most beautiful manner.

It is this knowledge'that enahles him to defend himself from his enemies, so that it is no longer a question ef human strength, but human skill even the weaker may prevail now-a-days.

Then having built bis home, provided for it, and defending it, comes in play human passions—the desire to excel, the disposition to rule being the chief ones among nations, accumulation and amusement the chief among individu als.

Multitudes of people lived and died before social matters took on a complicated form —no notice was taken of the influence each one exerted. At length circumstances and conditions began to appear that could not be accounted for. Superstition said Mysterious Proyldepcr, Ignorance said Fate.

It is neither. Analysis shows us that the "volition" of each individual "counts for something" (Art. 249) and always has oountod, ever since the human race began and the present state of affairs is the result. There is a law for you, let us study and understand that law. It is the operation of the volition of individuals that creates conditions, and the combined operation of both natural and psychological law that makes circumstances.

Our "sound relation to these facts, is to use and command them." Each individual" exerts an influence what in philosophy would be termed a force varying in degree and intensity that combines with some and contends with others, and we have results that are obedient to the law of cause and effect.

In the natural world when we see a stone projected into the air, we know that it will obey the laws of force, resistance and gravitation, and hurt none the less if it drops on the head of some person occupying the position it.is lawfully to take. Just so in society, results follow causes, whether agreeable or disagreeable, they follow as "sure as fate," for that is fate and it would require a continual succession of miracles to arrest it.
