OloniiKiiiir From Kin ,
The Uov Dr Cooley of the First Baptist
church addressed a largo congregation yes
terday morning on the subject of "Cloanslng
from Sin " The text was found in the fifty
third Psalm , seventh vorsu : Purge mo
with.hysop ami 1 shall boolean ; wash mc
nnd I shall bo whiter than snow "
Tills is tlio prayer of the Christian It must
bothopravor of all who would escape the
conscquoiices of sin What is involved in
the potlttonl
A consclousnoss of' ones own guilt
Sin is unclcannoss and defilement before
God , nnd holiness Is moral purity The heart
that delights In slntul desires , in unholy
thoughts and Wicked nits , Is polluted Wo
must bo conscious of nil this before wo can
truly put up this prayer And this sense ot
sinfulness wo cannot have until tbo spirit
opens our eyes Wo can sco the sins of oth
ers without the Illumination of the Holy
Spirit , but wo cannot sco our own But sin
and guilt In general uro not enough to bo
felt So long as wo place ourselves with
ethers In guilt there enn bo no deep contri
tion Wo must not sny , "Us miserable sin
ners , " but wo must say Have mercy upon
mo " This was the case with David , and
the publican This is true penitence
This petition includes also the uosiro to bo
clcansod It is not enough to know that we
are vile , but wo must abhor nnd loathe vile
ness Wicked mon will acknowledge their
wickedness , but have no desire to bo cleansed
So with the demons nnd loBt spirits Such a
prayer has never been offered in hoi ] , and
novcr will bo It was not the prayer of the
rich man The pravor of the text comes from
ono who has an abiding and an intanso desire
to bo mndo pure
This petition iccludes the realization that
our uncloaiuicss is too deep to bo removed by
our own efforts It is not outward dclllo-
ment , but it penetrates to the lowest depths
of our natures David was born in iniquity ,
so that his body , Intellect motives , desires
nnd affections wcro all affected Ho could
do nothing for himself So the sinner , by
reforming his habits , can do himself no good
This is true both of the awakened ana the
bacKslider , •
ThiR prayer includes faith in God Wo
never call a physician to our sick beds unless
wo have faith in his skill ; so wo pray to
God , believing in His power and His willing
ness to save great sinners Ho invites this
prayer and Ho has never sent a contricc soul
away empty
This pravor includes the desire to bo
wholly clcansod David did not desire to br/
mndo n llttlo hotter , but wholly pure , whiter
than snow , the common eoiblcm of purity
God has answered this prayer , aud the blood
of Jesus Christ His Son , purges from all sin
This prayer snows that this clennslne must
bo effected with blood Without the shed
ding of blood there can be no remission of
sins " The whole .Towish economy showed
thi3. The paschal lamb , the sacrifice , the
offering for leprosy , all wcro in line with
this prayer of David
The blOod of Jesus was shed to Durgo us ,
and Ho urges us to bo washed with its puri
fying flood Nothing is easier than salva
tion Nothing can bo obtained moro surely
Both the Father and the Son have taught us
to pray Moroy and salvation surround us ,
and wo need but to open our arms and
hearts to rccoive it

That Travollnt Slen's Clttli
It was hoped that the cotntnorclal
men's department in Title Dili : could
start out this week with the publication
of a call for a mooting of traveling monte
to bo hold in Omaha for the purpose of
organizing the association or club re
garding which so much , lias boon said
during the past few months , and par
ticularly within the last two weeks
The hope that such tv notlco would have
boon forthcoming wits based upon state
ments amounting almost to positive as
surances made to a representative of
Tins Uiu : on last Thursday
by Mr 0. D. Lobock and a numbur
of other pmtninont representatives of
thu intorcat of traveling men in this
section of the county There probably
is some very good reason why the call
was not arranged for , possibly owing to
the fact that the gonllomen most inter
ested in the move were una bio to got
together last wouk , it having boon
learned yesterday that these traveling
out of Omaha have seldom found them
selves so fur removed from each other
as has happened to bo the case during
the ptst four days
There seems to be no doubt
whatever but that n mooting
will bo hold within the next
few days According to the vor.v
p niu and onthusistio opinions
gathered from a largo number of trav
eling men , printou from time to time in
The Bin : , an organization such as has
been suggested and quito fully outlined
woind bo of incalculable boncllt in very
many ways , and would moot with most
hearty support when once stnrtoJ
Till Bik : solicits the opinion of these
traveling mon who have not yet boon
seen on the subject , and will bo glad to
print suggestions as to what ir traveling
men's ' club or association , with head
quarters in Omaha , should be Every
gentleman traveling out of Omaha is
urged to respond in this matter in time
for publication next Monday morning
