riority, is to write yourself down a hypocrite. The Spirit of the Lord j is now like, Noah's dove. It can find no resting place.. It is driven forth by the rich society clubs, ealle4j tsharebe-TfceJrt slick priests and preachers, on ' salaries of from one thousand to fifty thousand dollars per year, tell their congregation, while "doctering the word to suit the itching ear," that God meant a needle like an eye in an ancient wall, when He spoke of the rich, etc. Why did all his diciples in surprise, ask "who then can be savedf' So far as the teachings ofJesus Christ are con concerned - cerned concerned any theologian will admit that they are more in harmony with the People's party than any other party either in America or over the peas. If Jesus was to visit this earth this glorious Sun Sunday - day Sunday morning and enter any of the fashionable churches he would be given a seat up in the gallery or in the rear end of the church. He would hear hia. own ministers preach exactly the reverse of what he taught them on earth. He would leave . the church to de denounce - nounce denounce it and its teaching, to de denounce - nounce denounce the systems upheld by that church and its minister. He would attack our political system because of its rottenness, our rail railway - way railway system because of its mean meanness - ness meanness to the liberties of the poor, iMi system of finance as the most adroit swindle of the centuries, our land system as being just as bad as when he died, and he would be crucified in the public pres, that moulder of public opinion, with more diabolical hate and fury than when nailed to the cross. He would find the tribe of Judas among the editors, and preachers strong and numerous, the descend descendants - ants descendants of those who raised the cross and nailed Him to it. He would find them in charge jf the politi political - cal political machinery of the day, and those who inspired the crucifiction 1900 years ago would be recognized in their offspring. His teachings are right. They live on and will never die. They inspire the lowly strengthen the weak and shine out in blazing truth among men. Many of those who sit in the edito editorial - rial editorial chair and stand in the pulpit do not know him and do not be lieve in him. They regard his ad vice as Utopian, but for fear of having to go to work at something else, play the hypocrite and con continue - tinue continue to call themselves Christians though they seldom practice Chris Christianity. - tianity. Christianity. If you are a Christian cut this sermon out and take care of it, for it will not be republished like one of the hypocrites, Talmage and others. There is not a preacher who will dare to stand up in a pulpit and demand of his wealthy hearers to "go and sell what thou hast and give to the poor;" few of them have the cour courage - age courage to even hint that "the laborer is worthy of his hire," and none of them will say that -'the land shall not be sold forever." It should be the aim of the People's Party to remedy all these evils which at present disgrace the very name of civilization. We must not forget that if earthly love by the vulgar rich is degraded into mere selfish selfishness - ness selfishness and passion, it still remains in its purer sense the highest mys mystery - tery mystery of our existence, the most perfect blessing and delight on earth, and at the same time the truest pledge of our more than hu human - man human nature. To be able to feel the same unselfish devotion for the Deity which the human heart is capable of, if filled with love for another human soul, is something that may well be called the best re religion. - ligion. religion. It is the helpless, homeless and friendless poor man or wo woman's - man's woman's only possession. It is after

shalt loVe the Lord tny fcrOdwtthr all thy heart, and with allthy suul! and with all thy mind." Our next Sunday sermon will be predicated npon the Immortal Immortality - ity Immortality of the Soul. TE3AS! TEHAS i TEH AS I Torn back I say, to days of ay e Tarn back for ages with me, . " . For 1 have a story to tell to-dayj A story for me and thee. -: Twas many long ages ago, my dear, Columbus had not sailed o'er the sea; The Iudians to and fro, no fear, Roamed American forests free. ... Prehistoric races cave, and dell, dwelt, la forest, They wood the dusky maidens, their love stories ott did tell, Or around their camp fire's glow at night, Their heroes in full details, Stretched in their glorious savage plight, Would tell their dismal tales. A race of giants did live and thrive, On Arizona's scorched plains, No race could meet this tribe alive, Or chant their war refrains. But there c&me a time, when sore op oppressed, - pressed, oppressed, No rain for many a day, Their spirits were for water pressed, j Vn hrnr cnnld find s. w&v. I The women and children cried: "Bring water or bring death," The drifting sands, . . of desert lands, replied, With burning breath. Then rose the nation up so grand, Like Israel of old, And led forth by a valiant man, They sought for new homes bold. Away across the plains they run, Their anguish to escape, . They travel towardthe rising sun, Ob! what will be their fate? Down, down they fall,' they groan, they die, A thousand in a day, Water, water, is the cry, Great Spirit hear them pray I At last they all give up the strife, And lay them down to die, But the mothers of the suffering band, Like Hagar heard the cry Of children on a desert land, And sought again for life. They left, the starving, dying band, . Toward the rising sua did start, They returned not with an empty hand, But with a glad and happy heart. Tehas! Tehas! was their cry, Up sprang the suffering band, That sound brought to their ear ad advice - vice advice In their language did descry, That they had lound the promised land, And discovered Paradise. On they rush upon the shore, Of the river Colorado, And man first views the landscape o'er Of Texas Eldorado. Birds paused in their graceful flight, On wings upon he air, Animals did not take affright, But were feeding peaceful there. ' Tehas! Tehat! was the shout That shivered then the land, Into the crystal waters scout, The scorched and thirsty band. Thus Texas, queen of states, you see, Derived her glorious name, A Paradise tor you and me, Where dwells love's sacred flame. ' And generations have come and gone Like waves upon the sea, But each new race has sang the song, I am singing now to thee. D. P. Ci.oyd. Ardmore, L T, Nov. 12, 189S.
