' WEULIAM JENNINGS BRYAN AT
TAYLOR UNIVERSITY
By the arrangement of President
Jatacs M. Taylor, this university has
had J,he rare privilege of hearing the
Great Commoner, who spoke to two
immense audiences Sunday evening,
November 6th, on the subject "The
Bible and its Enemies." Distin
guished guests and people who had
come from surrounding cities and
towns filled the college auditorium
and listened to one of the ablest ad
dresses ever delivered. Then the
people departed and another audience
composed of faculty, students and
townspeople filled the auditorium
when Mr. Bryan spoke the second
time, repeating his address of two
hours length with such .supplement
ary matter as seemed appropriate to
the. new audience.
Mr. Bryan's lecture was a remark
able defense of ".the faith which was
once for all delivered unto the
saints." It was more than that, for
Mr. Bryan was not content with
merely defending the Bible. He
charged the enemy's breastworks, at
tacking all along, the line' and driv
ing hiixv out of .b.is entrenched places
in church and school. He said it
Was time the church' quit apologizing
for the BJWo and Degan toi fight. The
enemies to which he ga-ve Bpecial at
tention were ATHEISM, A'GNOSTIC-
,ISM, HIGHER -CRITICISM, and
juakwijnisjvj or- evolution The last
two' got the heaviest blows from the
speaker since these, insidious foes of
eyangelical J-ruth wee doing. most to
destrpy the faith of youth ' in the
Bible as a- supernatural Book. He
cited instances, of 'such destructive
work in certain-institutions r of learn
ing where -the teaching is higher
critcaJL and .evolutionary. And he
was glad, he said, to know that
Taylor University .Was a school which
he, could, safejy tecbmmen'd to par
ents for jtheir sons and,? daughters,
where their" faith Would :'be intelli
gently fostered by teachers1 who stood
for the plenary, inspiration of the
Bible &tf ,well as;.f or Ja tf0?ouh edu
cation, ' t
It is not possible in the brief space
of thli? notice to do justice to a lec
ture in which, powerful, reasoning
was lit. UP , with' gleams of humor
and sarcasm that turned the laugh
upon the enemies of our-Bible. Again
an again the speaker's telling points
Were greeted with hearty applause.
No one who heard this lecture can
forget the. logic that hewed down the
AgagS of, unbelief nor the eloquence
that paid tribute to tile Book on
which rests air that is priceless in
our faith and civilization. It is a
inatter 'for .devout thanksgiving that
God has iaid'His hand upon the man
so well-known in Chtfrch and State
to champion His truth against foes
discovered in the very household of
faith, and it is encouraging to feel
that when the pulp'it and theological
chair become recreant to this sacred
obligation, there are such laymen to
meet it.
We feel suYe that readers of The
Commoner will be interested to
know that Taylor University has an
educational standard excelled by
none, and that, in addition to her ex
cellent courses of study, she stresses
the religious side of college life, thus
fostering a strong spiritual and mis-

sionary interest throughout the year,
"J.roaWng everything tend to the
fulfilment of -her watchword, "LUX
ET FIDES." OUr aim ia to guide and
develop the spiritual as well as the
intellectual nature of our students
thereby insuring the attainment of
symmetrical character. Further In

KENTUCKY BAPTISTS ASIC BAN
ON DARWIN THEORY
A Lexington, Ky., dispatch, dated
Nov. 28, says: The state legislature
at its next session will bo asked by
tho Kentucky Baptist Church and
other religious organizations to bar
the teaching of tho Darwinian theory
and other theories of evolution re
garded as subversive of Christian
teachings in tho public schools of the
state if tho plans announced by Dr.
J. W. Porter, pastor of the First Bap
tist Church here, are carried out.
Dr. Porter delivered a sermon last
night on "Evolution" in which he
challenged any defender of tho Dar
winian theory to meet him in debate
here at any time.
After tho sermon the congregation
adopted resolutions petitioning the
Lexington Board of Education to dis
card all text books containing the
Darwinian theory.
THE FARMER'S INTERESTS
William Jennings Bryan has taken
up the role of spreading the evangel
of the one divinely ordained vocation
of man. To till the earth was the
sole industrial task given to the
gardener of Edon when he had for
feited his tenancy of that horticult
ural paradise. All the other toils and
achievements of the race are concen
tered in the dependent on the labors
of the husbandman as bread, the
symbolic word comprehending all
wholesome food, is the staff of life
and the fuel of human energy.- Mr.
Bryan, with all that is in him, is
championing the interests of the
American farmer. As the farmer js
bound to be the last man to see the
sun, Mr. Bryan holds that the farmer
is the first 'man to be considered by
his fellowman and the "power's that
be." National Magazine

THE NATION'S ENEMIES .
(Attorney-General Djugherty.)
"Lawlessness imperils a nation.
If laws are obnpxious to the people,
it is their premise to repeal ttpni.
Until they are repealed they must be
obeyed and enforced without fear or
favor. The government will endure
on the rock of law enforcement, or
it will "perish in the quicksands of
lawlessness. Those who do not be
lieve in our government and the en
forcement df our laws should go to a
country which gives them their pecu
liar liberty. To those who come to
our Bhores to take advantage of
American opportunities it is becom
ing to wave the hands of welcome.
But it is our duty to warn them to
stay away unless they intend to obr
serve our customs and obey our
laws."

PROHIBITION LAW CAUSES WANE
IN HOPS AND RAISINS
A Washington dispatch, dated
Nov. 14, says: Nature is obeying
even though the home-hoochors .are

raisin crop estimates are about 6Q
per cent of normal.
Out in California the raisin crop is
120,000 tons, or GO per cent of last
year's yield. , '
Brewers consumed about -16,000,-000
