for his superior in office. He was
for a day or two, but he would
long ago have resumed his duties
if he had not become offended at
the high-handed manner in which
Mr. Harrison took hold of the
Behring Sea business and made a
mess of it, so to speak, which he
has not improved by taking the
very course of requesting
the British minister to ask Lord
Salisbury to hurry up his answer
to the note of protest sent him the
other day- Notwithstanding my
belief that most political
are not of the worst sort,
I will venture to make one, and
that is, that as soon as Mr.
can settle in his own mind upon
the man to beat Harrison of
the nomination, he will resign
from the Cabinet and throw all of
h's influence to that man.
It will not be the fault of the
democrats if Arizona and New
Mexico are not admitted to the

Representative Dockery, of Mis-

misleading and unavailing
to assist the farmers in lifting

AIR.
The occupation of infidelity is fighting
Christianity. It has never had any
objective point. It has never done any
thing else in the history of the world.
Its work has been purely
and obstructive. The human heart
has cried for light. Infidelity has sought
to the light from the son's
thousands of weak and erring men and
women. The world has cried for light
The answer has been the darkness, a
denial. The world has cried for bread,
and it has been struck on the head with
the stone of What man

LUXURY OF A WRECK.
again, infidelity offers man the
joy of being lost, the consciousness
being lost. Adrift on the sea of life,
without chart or compass or
drifting, drifting, drifting death.
Colonel Ingersoll seems to take
in this condition. It is curious that
a man can find any strength or joy in it;
but he seems positively to rejoice in the
fact that he is adrift on the
sea of immortal life, and does not know
anything about the beginning or the end.
He says there lurks the hidden

True, infidelity pretends to offer man
the certainties and consolations of exact
science. Where infidelity got any patent
on science is yet a mystery. All
the scientists of the world whose names
live in the history of the world have
been men who were reared in the cradle
of Christianity. Suppose that infidelity
