MISTAKEN REFORMERS. There is sucti a great variety o t moral reformers and refartr it a man who lays no claim to insr a reformer and who is not c iscious that he needs reform ing must be greatly perplexed v ien he attempts to indentify the real, "simon-pure" article, His . perplexity becomes yet greater when he hears each re former, or little group of reform ers, snout, We are it; we are the real thing; only we know what needs to be reformed and hnv it must be done." Doubtless there is much that should be reformed. Cool, cal culating, rational and practical thought and action will ultimate ly compass every necessary re form, and whatever may b reformed by the application of these will remain so. But most unfortunately not all reformers seek remedial measure by the exercise of such thought and action. There is a large class posing as reformers par excel lence whose thought and action cannot be justly regarded as be ing Cool, rational and practical, More's the pity of this. Most men have been accustomed to think that the church is a sure, safe reformer and the repository and custodian of all the reform ing agencies of any value what ever. The church itself has put forth such claims and many men outside of her pale have accept ed her claims v.s trv.?. Thej ought to be true. Sometime in her history "t m y hav3 been true, but the utmsL slrelcii of credulity is required to believe it true today. What has gone wrong? Pro fessing to accept and to order their lives by the most perfect cc Jo of morals and the most pro found precepts for human guid p.nce ever presented to man, here is a multitude of men, collec tively known as the church, pur suing frantically, fanatically nursuin.tr methods of moral re form which are altogether irrational and impracticable, Some of this multitude are doubt less canting hypocrites, but that all or many are such would be an unwarranted and most uncharit able conclusion. They are sim ply mistaken. They have been misled, misled by their leaders, some of whom are playing the demagogue, few of whom, be cause of theu- training or lack of it, are not wholiy unfitted to give wie and practical counsel upon those t':ings which concern the regulation and government of men of all classes, conditions and opinions. The result is the mass of these good, well-meaning people have lost sight of at least two fundamental truth?, vis; That the code of morals and the precepts promulgated by the Savior are addressed to the individual; That human ex perience proves the utrer futility of attempting to reform men en m.ips. Christianity would reform the multitude only by first reform ing its units, the individual. Human experience proves this to be the only method which is rational and practical and pro ductive of permanent reforma tion which will never need to be reformed. Then these good people, be lieving they are the only expon ents of morality, and t!iat the views held by them are the only right views attempt to force these upon others. All men must accept their views of the liquor traffic, of the sanctity of the sabbath, of the kind of amuse ments which are not sinful and of many things besides these. They a:t uncharitably, , irration- ally and even fanatically. In vain may men hope to do any real good on such lines. They are at fault. The church has virtuallv lost, sia-ht of her true mission. Let ' her purify l. er altars and cleanse her sanctuaries and then go out and reform men individually until the glad mil lennial days shall come when no man shall need reformation. A SPECIOUS TEXT. The earnings of the United States Steel Company, common ly designated as the "steel trust," are made a text by part of the metropolitan press for an assault on that corporation and an at tack on the tariff. Opposition to the principle of protection is the real animus insoiring all this. The $45,500,000 which is given as the net earnings of the trust for three month is a large sum, but it is earned by an immense capital. This capital is not held by Carnegie and a few of his associates, but is for a very large amount held by poor men me chanics, clerks, professional men and working women who have put their savings into the guar anteed, six per: cent interest- bearing bonds of the corporation. These bonds represent capital which the company practically holds in trust. Considering whose money this is one may wish the earnings were even greater. How far the tariff hag made these profits possible is always exagerated beyond measure by those who would destroy protec tion. The products of the trust are armor plate, railway rails and tructural steel. The govern ment uses nearly all the- armor plate made, thoueh some years ago the Kussian government placed an order with Carnegie at the Homestead works. Of course the government does not Day tariff on this product. Steel rails are not yet manufactured in quantities equal to the home demand. Structural steel has a lower rate of protection under the present than under any form er tariff. Of course, were it not for the robber tariff" farmers would build sky-scraping houses and barns, and railroad clerks might build railways for themselves. It is quite possible, however. that the stable policies pursued n the conduct ot the eroverment the wise and beneficent policies of the republican party have ontnbuted to the prosperity of this corporation by far more than the robber tariff. ine Chinese varnisn Made to Walk Upon t KADB IH ALL COLORS1.
