It baa bceu the custom of Tiik JoubnaIj to begiu tbo week by giv Ing a uonaplcuous place toTalmugo's sermon, It usually closes the week witb a Batukday Night rev!uw,or 9onteiuplatlon, lu which the wocb or follies of mankind couio under ob servation. In this way TnE Jouu NAL is a moralist on a Bmall Bcale, and it prefers to make no larger claim as it has a holy horror of anything po excessively virtuous as to be above the human averuge. There has been much to cull atten tion to religion, as it is called, the past week. Large meetings have been hold aud a concentrated effort has been made by all the most earn- est professed religious workers com bined aud united. It is expected in two weeks two thousand people will receive the new light of the gospel of Jesus aud henceforth go on their way rejoicing, with a new song on their lips, a new chart of life and a new code of conduct. Their family if religious-will be htippy, if skepti cal of orthodoxy will await tho ro Hilt of years to bilng out the fruits of lepeutunce aud conversion. So the world will wag along. Is it any better for this religion ? All or nearly all will say it is. Without tho churches It is doubtful If u sane state of society and self government by the people wore possible. By means of revivals tho churches are recruited. If wo desire churches wo must desiro revlvale. When all this is said, there arises still a doubt, whether with mulii plielty of churches society is any cltaner and healthier, homes any happier, divorces fewer, crimes less, und morals better than fifty years ago, befoio tho rapid conversion processes were adopted. The discussion of tho question uroubes a spirit of coutioverey that will bring little good, perhaps. But the question, what is religion, is the most important ono of the ago or of any age. it is louuuea in laitti ana belief aud wrought out In workc. But all the former without tho latter are especially condemned. Neither is I be letter of faith and belief of any importance, as the Phurlsees kept all thut and were condemned. By a simple contortion of logio some denounce the confessional but decline how ono must confess to his rt'llgio 11 h profession or he is ruled out by them from the household of faith. Iliey insist on verbal pro fusions as .more important than life-conduct. But you say, how will the world know that I've got religion? It is not necessary tho world Bhould know it. You do not have to pro claim it from tho housetops that you'vo got religion. Your family, your neighbors, and those you do business with some of them will make the discovery. It cannot be that they are ull mean people and lefuso to do you justice. You can not get by any process what they refuse to admit that you aro pos sessed of, because if religion is any thing it will aflect your relations to and deallugs with others. There is no selfishness in true religion. It is the very opposite. It seeks no cinches hero or here after. The idea that many people seem to have of religion, that it is a means by which they will get into heaven und enjoy an everlasting stale of bliss and iu that way be bolter of!' than some ono else who is going to u placo to sutler endless torment, this idea of religion is no more nor less than highly orguu l.ed selfishness. It is a depraved and degrading conception of the illvluo will, and Is nothing but u theological sugar-coating of human seltluhness and labeling it the pill of talvation, as bo mauy quacks oiler it from the pulpit as a cure for all tho evils of life. TUB THHATY KATIVIEU. Tho United States has tuken Lord Halisbury at his word, Tho seuutc ratified the Behrlng sea arbitration treaty yesterday by a unanimous vote. In view of his explicit ud mifislun that when the arbitration treaty was ratified "both partita mustudmlt that contingent rights liavo become vested In tho other, which Loth desiro to protect," tho Hrltlsh premier cannot now refuse to renew the modus viveudl with out stultifying himself. Having passed the treaty, this country Is entitled to demnud that tbo modus shall be revived In an effective form without a duy's uuuecefesary deluy. Much time has already been lost In the mutter, owing to Lord Salis bury's procrastination. Tbtro in no more to lose if tho seals aro to have genuine protection. The wibdom of the president's resolute course Is vindicated by the resultc. Ouly a short time sgo. Lord BulUbtiry was intslBllng that there was not tho slightest occasion for a modus viveudl, and his dis patches indicated very clearly that he did not proposo to renew tho pre vious agreement. Tho determination of the administration to maintain American rights to tho uttermost, backed a it was by tho sentiment of the entire nation, forced a com plete change of front on tho part of the Tory ministry. Lord Salisbury's latest action Is an unmistakable retreat from his former position. It marks another diplomatic success for tho adminis tration that maintains the dignity of the United States with equal firmnessagainstthoussaultsofweak, half savage nations und tho en croachments of the mightiest em pire iu existence. MILIS ELECTION. Tho annoucement of the election of Mr. Mills to the United States seuate was made in the house of rep resentttlives by Mr. Traoy, of Now York, the leader in the anti-silver fight. Ho went to tho Republican sido of tho houso and mado tho an nouncement in the midst of tho sil ver debato. It was received with great demonstrations of joy by the Republicans and antl-sllvor men. In fact, they "outdid" his supposed frlonds In demonstration. This may not be generally understood. It was meant to have an eflect on those members who were fuvorlnir. free sil ver, but were a little weak iu the knees, and it was offered them as a demonstration of tho fact that the bosses could "take care of a man when he went contrary to the wishes of his constituents." It was well known by tbo whole houso that Mills had been opposed to tho con sideration of tha silver question, aud that ull thut any anti-silver man wanted was to postpone considera tion until after tho full elections. It was also well know that tho papers published over the entire land thut Mills had agreed with the New Eng land nnti-sllvor Democrats that if he was elected speaker he would pack tho committee on coinage, weights aud meusures against silver so thut it could not bo brought up at this session of congress. Conse quently, the announcement of his election to the senate from u strong free silver state was calculated to demonstrate the power of tho bosses, and they made a great parude of it in the house. OPTION DEALING. Resolution against option dealing passed by unanimous veto of the great labor cenference: Wo, your committee on options, beg leave to report as follews: Whereas, tho present pruotlco of dealing or gambling iu eo-culled "options and futures" on tho various furm products aud necessaries of life is of nationul Importance, aud involves not only a moral principle but an economio question, bolug dis astrous and pernicious to producers aud consumers ullko, iu compmiBon to which lottery gumblirfg sinks into insignificance; und whereas our respectful memorials' to congress have so far been on tiroly disregarded; now, therefore, bo It Resolved, That we most solemnly protest against this iufumouB evil and demand tho passago of such laws as will effectually eradicate ail gambling or dealing in options aud futures. BUOOESTED flOSIMENT, Better roads Is a bigger issue than anything lu ilght in state politics. A tinplnto factory Is being erected at Duluth, Mlnu.

"if gold money is the measure aud standard of tho value of all thlugH, are not present prices gold prices?" Gold money Is not and it cuunot Lo mudo the standard of vulue of all things; but attempts aro made to force our exporters to buy gold In Europe for Import here, und the prices they get for such exports are gold prices very low, when thoy bid gold very high In trying to get It for Import. St. Louis Republic Flllul duty is the strongest trait In tho Chinese utid Japanese character, but It Is frequently proverted and becomes to western eyes more of a vlct than u virtue. Such a porve Biou was seen recently lu Japan when the daughter of a sick man brought him a cup of blood taken Highest of all in Leavening Power. Iv2 Powder ABSOLUTELY PURE from her own veins and besought him to drank it, us sho had a vision that this was tho solo means of his recovery. Iu the same lino of Belf 8ncrifice Is the voluntary embracing of a disreputable life by both Chinese aud Japaucso girls in ordor to support their parents. Christian ity has made some impression upon tho Orient, but apparently it has had no effect in rooting out this re volting misuse of filial lovo. IN SOCIAL REVIEW.
