CHRISTIANITY VS. ISLAMiSM
Over the relative civilizing influ
ence of Christianity and Moham
medanism there has been consid
erable discussion of late, growing
out cjf Bishop Taylor's advocacy of
the ; claims that the hater
was' pre-eminent in certain
quarters. It has already been
nhown that the facts as given by
the eminent divine, who seems to
have became enamored oi Ma
homed, were not based upon suffi
cient grounds to make them en
tirely reliable. Malcolm MacColl,
however, goes deeper into the
subject. He shows that Islam can
only raise to its own level tribes
lower than itself in the scale of
humanity ; but this it does at the
terrible cost of petrifying them at
that level forever the level, that
is, of the barbarous Arabs of
Mahomed's day. For, except in
the matter of idolatry and infanta
cide, Islam, as we tind it in Mecca,
its metropolis, is not in advance of
the social and intellectual condition
of the Arabs of that time; and
tice to workingmen and the r
families.
The legislature of Kansas wisely
abolished it by the ena rtment of a
statute which makes railrotd cor
porations liable for damages loj
their own servants on the sair.e
terms as they are liable to pasei -ger3.
The Missouri Pacific claimed
that this legislation was in viola
tion of the fourteenth amendment
to the federal constitution, for the
reason that it was directed against
railroad companies specially a id
all employers generally. The
supreme court overrules this ob
jection and sustains the legislation.

FOR SORE THROAT.
Albany, Mav 5, 18S8.
To the Editor of thr Heralu :
We are on the-eve of an impor
tant election. The candidates are
in the field, and they will soon be
on the "stump" urging their re
spective claims to your suffrages
and you should know something of
these would-be public servants,
before the day-if election arrives.
One particular disciple of economy
is striving with all his powerful
"demogogic eloquence" and bad
grammar, and worse logic, to con
vince you that no man within your
knowledge can administer the
c unty matters as well as himself.
Let us examine the records of the
county a little add ascertain if
these pretensions of economy' are
warranted. I don't ask you, fellow
citizens, to accept unquestioned
my assertions. I shall not only
make assertions, but I shall
furnish the proof as I proceed. In
j looking over the minutes of the
county court for the April term
and in the transaction of county
business, I find that Mr. Ad
Harmon was allowed at said term
for his attendance as a witness at
the March term of the circuit
court, as follows :
Ad Harmon, 3 days attendance and 36
miles travel .". 8 9 60
A'l Harmon, 2 das attendance and 36
miles travel 7 60
An Harmon, 3 tl 0 s attendance before
grand jury and 36 miles travel ? 60
Tota' 7 c0
You will observe, fellow citizens,
that this was allowed for attend
ance at the same term of court
and the sheriff informed me said
witness was served with process in
the city of Albany, and that this
disciple of economy guaranteed the
, , . i payment of his said claim tor ins
be the last declaration ot the t. , - , f ,.a
i .... . f l i said attendance as a witness before
D vine Will to man , it follows that , Xo t!ie ,.oimty

not only superfluous, duc impious
in addition. ;.; And the history oi
Islam all over the world proves to
demonstration that what was ante
cedently to be expected has in
fact occurred. The Musuiman
world contains no longer a single
iter from which radiates any
intellectual light or any sign of
material progress. There is not
one Musuiman state in the world
which wifdds independent sway
v.hich, in fact, does not exist
solely by the sufferance of Chris
tandoii . A creeping paralysis has
fastened 'upon- islam, and the
hadow of the devouring eagles
'may even now be descried on its
horizon, llow stands tue case oi
' ;firistianity in comparison? Its
bittern man is not only to the
. hristian, but to the great mass of
intelligent and educated unbe
lievers, the highe.-t and noblest
ideal of humanity that history
records or the human mind can
conceive. His teaching and ex
ample are the most periect exhibi
tion of human virtue that the
world has seen. ,
In view, indeed, of the relative
conditions of the countries and
nations that are respectively pre
dominated by Christianity and
Islamism,it certainly seems strange
that so much prominence should
have been given to the claim that
the religion of the prophet con
tained any real and lasting, and
progressive and verifying effect in
.it. The countries that still give
allegiance to its tenets are the
most unprogressive and effete on
the globe, while on the contrary
thos-e countries and nations that
were illustrated by the scenes upon
Calvary are the only truly pro
V'cssive nations of the earth.

Tn an ouinion rendered a few
davs ago the United States supreme ! ences
court upheld a Kansas statute of a '
kind that ought to be found in! VJ W
every state ot tiie union. i
Bv the common taw an employer i
is not liable in damages for an in- J
jury sustained try one employe
through the negligence of another
Take a railroad accident, fur in
stance, caused by the gross care
lcssnotfsof a switchman or con din. - ;
tor. An action for damages may
be maintained against t e con -pany
for every passenger i.illod or;
njured, but it is n.-t liable for tl e .
death or injury oi any employe. .
That is a groumik's distinction j
which has been a source of iuj -j
stand, fellow citizens, that the law
make. no provision for the pay
ment of such claims, only when
the attendance has been as a
witness only, and when the travel
has been actual. Now, for the
proof, your correspondent would
refer you to the case of Crawford
vs. Aoram, touna on page kk oi
the second Oregon reports, where
Wilson J., delivering the opinion
ofthe supreme court of this Mate
in ISoO, says: ''7th. In two or
more cases between the san e par
ti.'S, at the same term, a witness
would be allowed but single mile-
are attendance ; ana tne attero
. j ance in each successive case would
reach back only to the final disj c
sition of Uk' preceding case."
If such is the correct interpreta
t '.in oi the law of this state, and
unless this ruling of the county
court has changed the rule, we
presume it is the rule which our
courts will follow, unless we ex
cept our own court, which is a law
unto itself, there has been an un
warranted waste of the public
money. This is such a small
matter that your correspondent
would not consider it worthy of his
notice, but tor the high and mighty
pretensions of this disciple of
economy. Such are his anxieties
on this subject that more than once
he has rendered himself liable to
the criticisms of some poor men
who have served the public as
supervisors, and when their ac
counts weie prese-ted they were
reduced from twenty-five to seventy-five
per cent. Agc!n it is
whispered that because riis man
Harmon is the proprietor of a rum
mill, and his influence may be
useful to the judge in this cam
paign, he has been allowed what
is unlawful. Your correspondent
does not make the assertion, he
merely states the facts, and your
readers can draw their own infer-
Democrat.
