Boy nton, the veteran Wash ington correspondent, haa been (or more than 30 years collecting news and writing letters. Few men know so thoroughly aa he the Inside history of the capitol. the white bouse, and the departments. Being asked what he considered the most important dedue tion from bis experlenee at Washington he answered: "The marvelous improvement in the moral atmosphere, and the general tone and honesty of the government. We the people of the United States, have the most honest government In the world. It Is and haa been for many years more bonest Uian ever before, and is to-day more honestly anil effi ciently administered than any private business that I have ever examined. mean that there is less waste and less defalcation. Look at tbe great postal service, for Instance. Where in the world will you find any private agency which does so much and does it so well, and at so little cost ? And change of parties makes no difference. Thorough honesty Is the rule. "The atmosphere of the white house Is pure beyond that of any royal rest dence, and this Is the most moral and peaceable city in the United States, if not in the world. It makes me laugh when those good people come from New York and Cincinnati and away out west to help reform Washington. " PERSECUTED IN AMERICA. Jobnt We-nler SetnTereel tor Refaasasr Conannanilom let m Wonwn, Rev. W. J. Scott, D. D., writes of "When John Wesley Preached in Geor gia," in Ladies' Home Journal, and from the famous preacher's journal tells the . story of, his persecution in Georgia, which ultimately resulted in his quitting America and returning to England in 1737. "Daring the after noon before Wesley's departure he was approached by the recorder of Savan nah, who informed him that he must not leave the province until he had given bond in SO sterling, and in ad dition furnished bail to answer Mr. Williamson's charge. Wesley respond ed: 'I have given him every oppor tunity to moke good his accusation, but he refused to do so; and now, sir,' he continued, with emphasis and firmness, 'I must insist that, as an official, you have treated me and the trustees of the colony very ill. I shall neither give bond nor bail. You know yonr busi ness and I know mine.' " The same afternoon.', he adds, 'I shook the dust off my feet and left Sa vannah, after preaching there one year and nine months, not es I ought, but as I was able.' The show made by his enemies of s purpose to intercept him was a shal low pretext, and Is now so regarded." Wesley s persecution was the out come of his refusal to admit a woman of his congregation to holy communion without evidence of her repentance and contrition. rrlaht llreaks Them tip.
