To the Editor: The question hag often been asked why the ministry does not reach the masses. I use the word ministry, be cause men do not find fault with the church as a rule, but with the pastor, for not having a message that will reach the multitude. The day when you can force people to fill the pews by preaching hell, fire and brimstone has 'passed away. They cannot be Frightened; you must have a message. Cut and dried dogma will not do. Make the lives of men worth while; and the future, they feel, will take care of Itself. It has remained for !Pev. Fyke and a few like him throughout the- length and breadth of the land to note this iveed. The local M. E. church on S. Fourth street was packed Sunday night by a spell bound audience as the pastor told the simple story of 'Enoch Arden, a Hero." Mr. Fyke said In part: "The days of hero worship have not passed. "English literature, American liter- ature, in fact, all literature owes d J debt to Christianity that it can never' pay. Take Jean Valjean out of 'Los , Miserables' and Victor Hugo's linnior- tal work woulf collapse; take the Christian idea out of 'Enoch Arden' and you would take out all the pathos and dry up all the tears." Mr. Fyke differentiated between t' e hero of the past and prior to the Christian era and the hero of the pres ent. He told the story of Achilles and his compatriots of the Trojin war, They were heroes becaufe of Hwlr selfishness; Enoch Arden was a hern because ,of his imslfishness. Proceeding, Mr. Fyke pictured the environments of Annie Lee, Enoch Ar den and" Philip the home by the rest less 'ocean, the mill' with its Industry, the bid moss covered church. Along side of these plats il.c li'.i'i; reO sch-jci.' house and you have t'.e basic princi ples of civilization. The story of "E-w'i Ardsif is a comedy pnj yet a, tragedy, bloodless and without a villlan nnd yet leaving all the heart aches and heart breaks. 1 CARL G. GULL. :.EW SERVICE DELIGHTS ALL.

"Every progressive state in the union has passed laws for factory Inspection. Every such laws means an Increase of governmental power. Is Mr. Wilson in favor of repealing those laws? If be Is not, then what does he mean by saying that the history of liberty is the history of the limitation of governmental power?" THEODORE ROOSEVELT. -"We demand a minimum wage for women; that Is, a living wage. I have followed with intense interest the remarks of the distin guished Democratic candidate for president. I have waited some five or six weeks since his nomination in the hope that I would see an explicit, clear and concise declaration from him, and the first ex plicit declaration upon a question fundamental or Involved in our platform was God save the mark that he denounces the Idea of a minimum wage for the women of the nation." I !J lt I aAI tid GOV. HI HAM JOHSSOJf. 'We "preach the gospel of humanity, and we mean to write the gospel Into the law of our state and country, because both the old parties have turned their backs on humanity; because they refuse to meet the questions of the' hour; because they have turned their faces toward the selfish Interests that suck the substance of the American people, so there has sprung from the conscience of the people the greaf Progressive Party, whose mission It is to defend the people and right the wrongs from which they suffer." i-iib.

I "If I have the honor to be elected President I Intend Ho see that the conservation pu!icy is administered in the Interest of the actual settler the mm who moves on the land to live there, and who will leave it in an improved condition for his children. In other words, the policy should he one of administration for the benefit of the small man, and not the great companies. "If I become President, I shall make it my personal affair to in vestigate the working of all tne water laws concerned with con servation of th wate' power, of the forest laws, and of the grazing laws, 0 as to mak sure they are actually administered not only hon estly, but without any improper red tape, in the Interest of the small man."
