RADICAL AND CONSERVATIVE
r. H. 0. Birrinj Says Neither ii in the
Correct Position.
TRUTH SEEKER CANNOT BE EXTREMIST
ArKM that People Should Approach
Eifrf 4ra(lnn with the Krrrdom
of One Who la Open to
f ont trtlon.
At the First Congregational church Sun
day morning Rev. H. C. Herring preached,
bis theme bring "Radicalism and Conser
vatism its Forces of Progress." He raid In
pari:
"When Christ laid tint no man havl.ig
drunk old wlno would turn to new ho
aiatrd a condition which existed In hia
time, for thp old wine referred not es
pecially to wine, hut to anything old aa
compared to the new Palestine, and the en
tire world of that day was turned toward
the. old, because they wrre old. The icn
servatlve forces dominated, as they now
dominate In China. Jesus did not com
mend this spirit neither did he condemn
it, but the fact that he used the expres
sion will cause us to raise the question,
"Whlrh Is better the new or the old?"
"There are among us people who are
ever striving after the new simply because
It Is new, In thought and In material de
velopment. There are extreme and gro
tesque radlealB who declare, that every
thing Is wrong. They would not only de
stroy error, but would tear down the In
stitutions which the best, thought of man
kind has preserved for ages. The church
should be eliminated from civilization.
niiKlllll H nl ii should be abolished. Man
should be permitted to follow his personal
impulses In every particular. The mar
riage bond Is a fetter which should be cas?
off. These men would make a new earth,
where If righteousness did not prevail
something else would.
"On the other hand there Is a form of
conservatism equally extreme and gro
tesque. One form Is the conservatism of
Ignoranre, and we partake of this when
ever we condemn something which we do
Dot understand; then there is the con
servatism of Intolerance. This form Is
shown in those people who are willing to
have investigation only Into the history of
the Bible by those who will not publish
their conclusions unless tbey conform to
the previous Ideas of the intolerant con
servative. Form of Timid Conservatism.
"Then there Is the form of timid con
servatism, which, recognizing the evils In
existing things, would rather bear with
them than to adopt some new idea. It is
said that both the extreme radical and
the extreme conservative are necessary to
our development and ti a proper advance.
That the former pushes Into things un
known and would entangle the world In
theories were It not for the latter, who
bold down his exuberance; and that by ac
tion of both forceB only do we move In
orderly procession to higher planes of de
velopment. "The correct position to take, however,
seems to be one really Involving neither
Idea, but that people should approach every
subject with the spirit of the truth-seeker,
who is willing to change his Ideas when
assurtd of the truth of the new theory,
but who honors the old, not because It Is
old, but because It has done good. A man
with spirit will be termed a radical by
the extreme conservatives and he will be
called reactionary by the extreme radicals,
but he will belong to no school of thought,
for when be does his Investigation, un
consciously, maybe, he will be drawn to
ward substantiating ,some theory or ie
Inforclng some position. Tbe Bible Is the
beat exponent of this idea of truth-seeking.
It tells not only of a Christ who lvei in
Gallliee. but of a Christ who is with is
today, and will be with us forever; not of
a holy spirit of which was manifest on the
day of Pentecost, but of a spirit which Is
alive and revealing truth to us today. Zt
tells of the truths which were recognized
when It was written and It stands with
open face to those truths which may be
learned later. Playing this part It It
called radical among conservatives and Is
called conservative among radicals. It Is
neither. It is the exponent of truth and
no truth can be foreign to it."
SPEAKS OS TOKENS OP GIVIXG.
President Arleaworth of Cotner at
Plrat Christian Church.
President Aylesworth of Cotner univer
sity occupied the pulpit of tbe First Chris
tlau church Sunday morning. Taking bis
text from II Corinthians, vili, 9, he spoke
on the "Tokens of Giving." He said In
part:
"Giving is tbe culmination of pure love.
It Is elemental in its properties and springs
from an open heart without thought or rea
son. It Is a Godlike quality that is given
to every ono te a grer.ter or lesser extent.
"Was not Christ given to the world be
cause God so loved the world that whom
soever believed in Him might not perish,
but have everlasting life? Tbe giving of
His only Son was an unselfish act and a
pure sacrifice. He was rich before, but
poor here, poor beyond the conception of
heaven. The gift was the gift of love and
shquld so work upon the sympathies o' the
people ot this world that no forests should
be too thick, do snows too deep, no tropics
too hot and no trials too great for anyone
to do all that lies In their feeble power
to complete the work that was begun by
tbe giving of Jesus Christ to the world.
"In our own country a work is ready at
our hands. From our Pacific shores there
stretches a Held to the westward that la
our own; that is no others than ours, and
it it the duty of tbe country to face this
work and do with it as God would have it
done. Work unselfishly, give our wealth
and our people for the increasing of Chris
tianity and civilization in those countries
of tbe eastern Pacific."

The African Methodist Episcopal church

"Kxekiel's VUlon of the Dry Bones."
The vouni orescher is now in his ninth

fourth year. He was bcn in Atlanta, ua..
in 1894 nf humble Darentaae. and has had
little or no educational advantages. He is
a frail, delicate child, with a clear, re

He also addressed the morning service at

Methodist Episcopal church.
This is the twenty-third state In which
he has spoken, as well as In Canada, where
he has Seen holding meetings for the past
three months. He Is accompanied by his
mother, his father having died a year and
a half agn.
The pastor of one of the leading white
churches of the rlty, who was present
at last night's meeting, said: "This child
preacher Is certainly Inspired. His dis

The boy Is not a phenomenon, but Is In

Rev. Clyde Clay Clssell of Hanscom Park
Methodist Episcopal church preached his
discourse yesterday morning with a short
dissertation upon the extreme Importance
of bringing young people Into the church.
He said:
"A majority of church people are con
verted before they are 20 years of age.
Every boy or girl of Christian parentage
10 years of age should be In the church.
It Is tho young people who grow up In the
church that are its strongest supporters.
The coldness atld diffidence of the older
church members Is reflected In their chil
dren, hence the necessity of beginning a
church life early."
The text of Dr. CIsspII's sermon was:
"Godliness Is great gain.'' He jald:
"It is a short sentence, but has a vast
meaning. Men should think more of their
spiritual life than of the physical world.
In the employments of the world the genu
ine Christian is handicapped because he Is
presumed to be Intolerant and visionary
ann deflolent of practical ideas and knowl
edge. The spiritual' life Is not another
life wholly outside of this world, nor
should . It be.
"Masters of empire have no feeling with
the toilers, and this tendency prevails to a
great extent among the aristocracy of this
modern day. Cicero had said 'there is no
respectability in the shop.' A godly life
must be made In this world If at all.
Thousands of business men and literary men
would lay down their life burdens but for
the comfort of spirituality that Is the only
rest afforded them from their toll. If spir
itual life would Increase the bank ac
count or add acres to lands It would be
come the greatest of the world's powers.
Spiritual life buoys us up in the time of
trouble. When death comes it sweeps out
men's treasures of gold, but not his heart."

OMAHA, March 7. I notice in your issue
of today an article under the above head.
In which the correspondent of an unnamed
railway company refers to Canada in some
what unmeasured terms. Although not a
native of that country, I have spent con
siderable time there and am surprised that
anyone should pay serious attention to a
communication scoring a whole country,
which extends from the lakes to the Rockies
and some 500 miles north and south, ap
parently with a knowledge ' only of the
extreme northwest corner.. It Is an In
teresting point that the communication in
question Is written with an apparent knowl
edge of northern Alberta only a country
which has been settled quietly and with
out particular effort on tbe part of Can'
adlan authorities, almost entirely by Amer
lean farmers, those going first recommend.
Ing the district to their friends with such
good success that for a couple of years
past it has been practically Impossible to
obtain unimproved , land In northern Al
berta, except at a great distance from
the railroad.
The letter you publish claims that crops
cannot be raised with any certainty In
the Edmonton district. Of course It would
depend to a great extent upon the kind
of crop the farmer wished to raise. Were
he to try cotton or tobacco, or even corn,
be might fall, but were he to devote his
attention to oats or barley, or even wheat,
his returns would be amply sufficient to
pay a good dividend on his Investment.
In tbe year 1898, the year he left the
country, farmers In that district raised
26.10 bushels of wheat, 46.53 of oats and
31.02 of barley per acre. In 1899 the
figures were 25.02, 42.87, 26.46; In 1900,
18.78, 32.15 and 24.22, and In 1901, 25.97,
67.49 and 52.55. Farming In that particu
lar district is almost entirely mixed farm
ing. Klve years ago. the latest date to wMch
your correspondent refers, it Is possible
markets were none too plentiful. Since
then, however, the developments of the
mining districts of British Columbia, tbe
growing Canadian trade with the Orient,
the demand for Canadian grain in Liverpool
and to some extent In Minneapolis, to
say nothing of the accumulating evidence
of the suitability of the country for small
grains, has led to an exceptionally rapid
Increase in the number of elevators anl
elevator companies, while do less than
three railways are seeking to contest tho
Canadian Pacific's monopoly of western
Canadian trade. One of these, the Cana
dian Northern, will link Edmonton with the
lakes by September of the present year,
and with the two oceans within three or
four years. That this part of the country
Is cold no one ran deny, but it is a clear,
dry cold, with no wind, such that the aver

It to bis home winters. H. L. R

EVANGELIST FAILS TO COME
0. Campbell Morgan Hu Omaha Ministerial
Union on Anxious Seat.
TWO GREAT CROWDS ARE DISAPPOINTED
Konntse Memorial C'harrh Pilled to
the Doors In Afternoon and First
Methodist racked In the
Errnlas,
Without an7 tidings whatever from him,
Evangelist O. Campbell Morgan disap
pointed several thousand people yesterday
by failing to arrive In Omaha and speak at
the two meetings that were scheduled to
open a week's revival at the First Meth
odist church. Wholly unable to account
for the nonappearance of the English di
vine. Rev. F. A. Hatch, chairman of the
Ministerial union committee that has the
levlval In charge, was forced to make ex
planations as bett he could, while speakers
Wi're obtained at short notice to fill out
the emergencies. The seeming Inability of
Rev. Morgan to reach Omaha Is causing the
committee no end of embarrassment, the
members being at a loss to understand
why no message was received yesterday
explaining the detention.
Originally the revival was dated to be
gin Saturday evening and was so adver
tised, last week advices from Atlanta,
Ga., by Evangelist William R. Moody, who
was traveling with Mr. Morgan, warned
the committee that the latter was In poor
health and voice and asked if the meet
ings could not be put over until fall, or at
least postponed ore week.
Telewrant from Morvan.
After It had been decided to begin the
revival March 15, Rev. Morgan, personally,
wired from Atlanta iha he would keep the
engagement. However, Friday night a tel
egram was received from Birmingham, Ala.,
saying that the ctcrgyihi.il nad missed a
train connection and could not arrive be
fore "6 o'clock Sunday." The committer
therefore declared off the meeting Satur
day night, but reannouneed the meetings
for Sunday one at Kountze Memorial
church at 4 in the afternoon, and the other
at the First Methodist church at 8 In the
evening.
Chairman Hatch and other members of
the committee haunted the railway Btatlons
all day, supposing that "6 o'clock Sunday"
ment In the morning. But Rev. O. Campbell
Morgan came not and neither did aiy word.
Realizing that instant arrangements must
be made to care for the crowds even
though Mr. Morgan did not arrive, con
ferences were held Immediately with the
officers of the Young Men's Christian as
sociation, and State Secretary Bailey was
summoned from Lincoln at short notice, be
ing Informed Just In time to catch an aft
ernoon train for Omaha.
Crowd nt Konntse Church.
At 3:30 more than 1,000 persons Lad
filled Kountze Memorial church to the doors
and hundreds were turned away during the
next half hour. Secretary Bailey addressed
those within the church on the limitations
and causes that bind men to evil ways and
the conventions of life that work toward
the ecruatlcation of religion. A general
song and scripture service was held as
well.
In the evening the crowd that came to
the First Methodist church was very large,
the edifice having not a seat to offer at
7:30, although tbe meeting was not adver
tised to begin until t. The throngs that
were not allowed to enter numbered many
hundreds. They were directed to the First
Congregational church, a blick away,
where It bad been arranged to hold an over
flow meeting.
At the Methodist church Mr. Kelly had
his choir on hand, and the service there
proceeded) Rev. Edwin Hart Jenks of the
First Presbyterian church, preaching the
sermon, which was a general lesson of the
message to the sinner In the story of the
Savior. '
Rev. Hatch spoke at the First Congrega
tional church, which was nearly filled. He
announced at both meetings that in any
event no revival meeting would be held
Monday afternoon, and that future arrange
ments will be given in tbe evening news
papers. Works Wondera for Women.

A) THE PLAYHOUSES
"The nambler'a llaaahter" at the
Boyd.
Very much different from the daughter of
the Illicit distiller Is the daughter o, the
man who was known to the world is the
shrewdest speculator on the Board of
Trade, and to one man alone as tbe biggest
sucker that ever cashed a check for a
stranger. This daughter who made her
appearance last night at tbe Boyd Is not
one of the clinging sort. Far from It;
when she found her father bent on going
his own way to ruin by getting on the
bear side of a strong bull wheat market,
and at the same time playing into the
hands of a man who sought the financial
ruin of tbe father and the moral ruin
of the daughter, she calmly cut loose from
ber daddy, declared everything off until
he freed her true lover (who was Inop
portunely confined In Jail on a charge of
embezzlement), and when the old man
undertook to pull off his great bear raid
In the wheat pit, she went to the front
with a suit case full of the long green, and
what she did to her paternal dad and his
wicked accomplice was a-plenty. They
started to sell wheat down to 70, and when
the call session closed whet was quoted
M 75, and the old man was short 7.000,000
bushels to the darling daughter he had de
fled. He was all In, anc. he acknowledged
It by throwing a combination Dick Van
Buren and Nick VanAlstlne fit In full view
of the audience. But what's tho use? The
rest of the plsy Is Just like this, which
is all pulled off In one act, and the com
pany Is just like tbe play. The theater
was packed last night, and the matinee
audience was the largest in weeks. An
other performance will be given this even
ing. Yaadevllle at the Crelnh t on-Orpheam.
Another of those laughing bills that are
making the fame of the local vaudeville
house was put on yesterday. The people
come In pairs and bunches, not a solo in
tbe list, and all contribute something to
the gaiety of the occasion. Murphy and
Nichols open the performance with a skit
called "The Bifurcated Girl" Just why the
name doesn't appear, for the girl Isn't, at
least visibly, any elflerent from any other
girl. But they start the laughter, and It
doesn't get much chance to flag. Mor
rlsey and Rich work off a bunch of funny
talk, and McCue and Cnhlll sing some good
songs. Mason, Keeler & Co. have a sketch
called "Hooked by Crook." which Ib de
cidedly a departure from the conventional,
but la productive of much merriment. A
Dushful wooer gets his lady love Into bis
bachelor quarters to propose marriage to
her and discovers a burglar there, and the
burglar finally turns his hand to a new
trade and does 'what Cupid had apparently
missed out on. Some amusing situations
and almost witty remarks are worked Into
the sketch. Nelson's comiques are a
quartet ot very able athletes, who not only
do some clever and extremely difficult
acrobatic stunts, but mix In with them a
lot of quiet fun, so that the applause for
their skill and agility is mixed with mirth
at their antics. In Kronau's White
Tscherkess Tris Is the only departure from
the serious on the bill. This is an Eu
ropean novelty singing aot, and has many
good points, the voices being good, and tho
Idea of giving the stage an arctic setting
being not only novel, but worked out with
the latest appliances, such as tbe electric
snowstorm, an aurora borealls effect and
the shimmer of moonlight on the reBt!ess
sea. - Good attendance' marked both per

LABOR'S VOICE AT LINCOLN
Omaha Uniom Will Send Big Committee to
the Capital City.
TO OPPOSE AMENDING EXEMPTION LAWS
To tilve Attention Also to Senator
Hall's Bill to Permit Women to
Work Overtime t'nder Spe
cial Agreement.
Considerable agitation is shown In labor
circles over the fact that the state senate
has reported favorably, as a committee of
the whole, the amendments to the exemp
tion laws proposed by the retail merchants
of the state. A strong committee will go
down to Lincoln this week to operate
against the measure, claiming that 'n Its
present form it will work a hardship upon
the majority of the people of the t'ite.
The legislative committee of the State So
ciety of Labor and Industry ha.i Dpponed
the measure from the flnt, but It Is o be
reinforced by representatives of the local
unions.
This measure Is not the only one which
will receive attention from the commit
tees. They will strenuously oppose the
bill Introduced by M. A. Hall to permit
women to work more than ten hours jtr
day by special agreement. Speaking of
this bill a member of the committee sp'.d:
"The amendment vill defeat the purpose
of the entire law. Give the women the"
right to waive the provisions of the pres
ent law and not one of them could obtain
work without first making tho valrr.
Some of the women are anxious to h.ive
the law passed, for they could obtain a
little more money during the busy season
In the factories. But this would not last
long, as their health would be rul-ied and
thpy would be forced to rest, losing cn
these enforced vacations more than they
would gain by working overtime."
The committees will endeavor to have
passed the bill making It necessary to
stamp all 'goods made In penitentiaries of
fered for sale In this state, the jtatnp to
show in large letters the fact that the
goods are made In penitentiaries. Tfcls
bill Is being opposed by the men who bold
contracts for convict labor, and It 's said
that some of the members of the Douijlas
county delegation are not in favor of It
for this reason, Baying that the contractors
should be protected In the use of the con
victs. AXOTIIKR WOSUEn OF SCIENCE.
