LAFOLLETTE THE PROGRES
- SIVE.
Senator Lafollette yesterday after
noon made a good democratic speech,
one that interested the audience that
packed the armory to the door and to
uic iiacK oi ine piuiery.
He declared that the next four
years will settle things for the people
or will sec the trusts and combma
lions legalized; that there arc strong
indications that the present supreme
curt will take the hrst excuse that
(itfcrs to legalize the trust octopus.
offering a menace the people need to
watch and guard against at the hallot.
There is one state where justice is
done the trusts, Wisconsin, of which
the speaker was governor for six
years, building up the best state gov
eminent in the U. S.
He showed Roosevelt s insincerity
on the tariff, and that lie was really a
slandpatler, a good politician though.
He selected Taft as his successor.
and no president since Uuchannan did
the people a greater wrong, and it was
he who taught lalt how to get th
support of the office holders under
linn, he is now complaining about.
He handed Taft the tariff question,
and Taft before election agreed to a
revision downward, but instead he
signed the Paync-Aldrich bill revising
the tariff UP, with 000 increases in it.
What is needed now is for Con
gress by affirmative legislation to de
nounce overcapitalization, taking the
vater out of stock in a rotten busi
ness that is a menace to the country.
A steady hand is needed at the head
to bring stock down in the great con
cerns to ils actual valuation.

THE SOUL.
. Some time ago there appeared in
Hie Democrat four texts of Scripture
for the purpose of proving the im
mortality of the soul.
1m. Luke 23:43. "Today shall thou
be wilh me in paradise."
Koticc the request of the thief,
"Lord, rc'member me when thou com
cst into thy kingdom," not when'thou
gnesl. ' T he thief evidently under
stood thtit Jesus had taught that he
wouM r-imrn to earth to..,set up his
kingdom: He has not yet returned
so his pnryer is not yet 'answered. ..
I'arfi'diin' was not then in existence.
When describing the new earth and
capilol, the New Jerusalem, the
Kcvclntor says; "In ll'C midst of the
afreet of it, and on either side of the
river, was there the tree of life." Rev.
2.1:2. And to him that ovcrcometh
ivilT I give to cat of the tree of life
which" is in the midst of the Paradise
Mt God.'" Rev. 2:7.
This loentes paradise in the new
cart-h. When Jesus conies then the
thief's prayer will be answered. The
reading of the text with the comma
placed after today; will make it easily
understood, "Verily I say unto thee
today, shall thou be with me in para
dise." I'uncliiation is not inspired,
was not in use when the Iiiblc was
written. Christ said of himself that
as "Jonas was three days and three
nights in the whale's belly," so 111!
should be "three days anil nights in
rhc heart of the earth." Malt. 12:40.
5o there Is where he went that day
instead of paradise.
2nd. 2 Cor. 5:1-9. 'Troves the
soul's absence from the body and at
home with the Lord.' Let us see if
I'.'ntf' meant just that. He says: "So
WE being many are ONI? BODY in
Christ, and every one members of
one another." Rom. 12:5. "Now YE
arc the BODY of Christ." 1 Cor. 12:
27. "And hath put all things under
his feet and gave him to be the head
over all things to the CHURCH
which is his HODY:" Eph. 1:22:23.
"And he is the head" of. the BODY
the CHURCH." Col. 1:1H.24. "Who
now-rejoice in my sufferings for you,
and Til hip that which is behind of
the afflictions of Christ in my flesh
for his BODY'S sake, which is the
CHURCH." Thus he repeats again
and again.
With this view of the word body,
all is plain. "Therefore we arc al
ways confident, knowing that whilst
we arc at home in the BODY," not
onr bodies as it should read if he
meant our physical organisms. "We
are absent from the Lord." Our
head, the '.on!, is away; and "we are
conlideut, 1 sav, and willing rather to
be absent from the HODY," not our
bodies, "and to be present with the
Lord." Not a word about the soul
in tho
whole account and not a hint
that a
man is conscious when he is
dead,
lation.
l'oul was wishing for trans-
3rd.
Phil. 1:21-23.
"For me to live
is Christ and to die is gain." Paul
floes not mean that by dying he wouli.
go to heaven tor he believed and
taught the resurrection as his hope
for a future life.
lie says, "Christ shall be magnified
in mv bodv, whether it be by life or
by death."'
How could death He gain? lie
would be at rest from persecution.
2 Cor. 11:2.1.7. Hut he did not mean
it would be gain to himself. He says.
"Kor mo to live is Christ," (gain to
Christ"), "and to die is gain," (gain to
Christl. "for he shall be magnified in
my HODY whether by life or by
death. " His thought was only to
magnify Christ. Then he says: "I
;un in a strait betwixt two," which to
clroose he did not know, but there
was a third thing he did desire and
lhat was to "depart ami be wilh
Christ which is far better. " This call
only be translated that he desired.
4ih. John 14 1 3. Chri-I was coni
iVrting bis disciples, by his promise
ti come again. He has gone, as he
faid, to piepaie a place for his faith
ful ones ami w ill come again to raise
