THE ALLAHABAD FAIR.

The news from Allahabad. India. in-
dicates that all is not well in the As-
iatic portion of the British Empire.

. Rioting has been going on and onlcials
. fear some such uprising as the Indian
mutiny. in which the British yoke was

.7 almost torn off. _
: Althoughthe dispatches say noth-
ing of it. the disturbance is undoubt-
aedly. incident. to the Mela. the great

_ annual fair. Thousands upon thou-

‘ sands of folk gather within the gates

, . _ of Allahabad at this time of year. The
5, Mela has been an institution for cen-
J.’ ‘turies. From all parts of the vast
“ 3 Oriental Empire they come: for. to
’, most of them. it is the one big day of
‘ the year in which clothes. furnishings.
oxen. and. in fact. all the necessaries
of life are to be bought.
,. ‘ Cattle. thosemost faithful servants
of mankind everywhere. are treated
it“ the most profound veneration at
the Allahabad fair. They are bcgnr-
landed with flowers and led in long.
silent processions through' the streets.
They. also are exempt from labor fora
time. and. when they are sold. their
new master must promise to treat
them with respect.
, Perhaps we can learn from the
I I 5? Hindu. if not veneration. at least more
“induces to domestic animals. Though
dumb they still have feelings. The}

“only decent. considerateiredtment. It

3%.“, Mr. Spargo went to Russia with a

£3 deputation. which included another

well-known Socialist. and» he went for
A. shepurpose of learning what he could
. 'fisbouc the Soviet Government. . His
‘3' judgment is that "so long as the Bel-
B. A. evildrernain in power and‘maintain

“tuner foreign capital invested in

: can buslu men to rely on the
p onesty of its-.eaders in their dealings

1w lpargo toldga. committee of the Sen.
3." ate. "The treason why the Bolsheviki
.; are so eager to obtain recognition.
,. that it inspires their incessant and
. costly propaganda. is itself a sumclent
r '1 season for denying that recognition.”
fir Mr. Spargo went to Russia with
.1; any prejudice. it was in favor of the

In spite of the Judgment. of men
who know something of the facts re-

tor into psychic matterathat if labor-
atories were properly fitted up in Am.-

reach some definite conclusions with-
in 10 years as to the possibility of
communication with the dead. That
is a. subjectun which every human
being is bound to be interested. It
does not seem likely that mere lack
of laboratory equipment will be al-
lowed to stand in“ the way. And yet

evil we are making laws. Mr: Root
said that in three years $5.000 laws
were passed in the various law. mak-
ing bodies'bf the United States. .
- Now nobody can keep launch with
20,000 laws a year. The Lawyers do
noty‘etend to: the Judge only looks
at them when they are brought to his
attention but the people must know
them all or pay the penalty. . ,
' Ignorance of the la wisno excuse.
Now there a certain facts that
hould be in mind in our considers-

\

ion of,this subject. 'I will briefly rec
iew the growth of governments. Not
to go back] to the Pri itive Savage as
some of our political heorists delight
todo (I think in their theories they
never 'get‘ beyond the savage). But
begi with comparatively synodern
condi one like Medieval Europe.

We flnd‘a state of utter lawlessneu
Roving bands'iiving on robbery. No
right of life or property was respected
by them. It wasvlike our hands of
gunmen and thieves on an unlimited
scale. To save themselves. the people
had to organize for protection. They
combined into communities. appoint-‘
ed leaders whom they thought they
could trust and so governments were
formed. Now. these governments
"made rules or laws to regulate the
action of the people and to ‘define
their rights to life. liberty and pro»
perty. So long as the people. had a
voice in the making of these laws.
thee laws may be said to embody the
will of the people. -

But when men areintrusted with
power. they want more power and
hence it followed that the rulers made
the laws to suit their own .desires and
for their own interests. They wanted
to perpetuate their power and make it
effective to their own class. They
also made it hereditary. The people
were taught that the rulers governed
by Divine right and that the only
right the people had was to obey.

Thus we see the principle of the
alleged Divine Right of Kings again
established: a psinciple that it tack
many years of revolution to over-
throw. The principle of the divine
right of the State to govern is so in-
grained in the consciences and opin-
ions of the people that it persists even
when the King or State is destroyed.

The King is dead. Long live the
King. is the slogan.
One ruler-lakes the
other but still he is King. Even in
the dream of the Socialist. the sure
is supreme. and to pass from Mon~
nrchy to Socialism is only

place of sn~

‘0 DISI‘

other form of nbaolutlon.

The State makes the laws and the
people do the shouting.

God save the State.

Now the laws passed by such a
State are for the benefit of the State.

.American idea of government and,
’cherlshed by all who understand the

asee'ihem pass laws at their own sweet

man is arrested and presumed "Inc
communlcsdo,” he disappears, Even
his own friends can not communicate
with “him. {The State may take his
life. his property and destroy his
family. There is no appulgexcept
resolution.

Against this government by the
state .the lovers of free institutions in
Europe have fought for generations.
Little by little the rights of the people
have been secured. but at great cost
off'blood and treasure.

Those who founded the American
government tried to formulate a gov-
ernment that shodld‘ primarily defend
their-ights of the people. Some fun-
damental principles were laid down.
Some of them are:

That all governments derive their
authority from the consent of the
governed.

That a man has a right to be con-
sidered innocent until proved guilty.

The right of Habeus Corpus can
never be suspended except in the cli-
max of war when the very life of the
Nation is at stake. .

The right to be confronted with the
witnesses and to make them give their
charges to his face,

The right to crossaxamine a w“-
ness and make him prove his charges.

These end many others are the ‘
safeguard of liberty embodied in. the.

genius of American liberty.

And my Friends: If liberty is not
to perish from the earth we. and am
lovers of Man must maintain them
and teach them to our children and
to the stranger'who comes into our
Republic.

But the people forget. There is cl-
ready in our midst a failure to value
these essentials of liberty and to shut
our eyes in fancied security. Human
nature does not change. It is always
the pneducated that support the im-
perial state.

We are filling to realise the funda-
mental place that our school system
occupies as the bulwark of freedom.
We are reverting to the kind of laws
enacted by the imperial state. We
hear men about their belief in the
government of the people and then

This introduces my topic.

In the conception of our founders.
there are certain rights ’that no gov-
ernment has the right to take away,
among which are Life. Liberty. Pro-
perty and the Pursuit of lbppinees.
Even a maiority has no right to in-
lure a minority. Our legislators are!

 

 

 

They are to Dresserve the privilege of
the ruling classes and to punish the
disobedieni. Often the rulersvbecame
the brignnds and laws are. only a
more gontlemanly means of taking
what the. rulers want. The point of
view is to penalise the wronpdoer:

TIE ESSENTIAL UNITY.

Editor Sentinel: .

Numerous subjects are given more
prominence in controversial circles
than what they commonly deserve.

News publications print more de-
batable matter. far into ,excess than
every-day parlance can apprehend. in
its logical aspect. and digest in practi-
cal assimilation.

A horde of subjects are constantly
discussed by professed eminent intel—
lecis. developed highly in the art of
dialling with mental faculties: often
ardently laboring upon some-insignia-
cant problem. deserving a. meager
limited amount of consideration. and
neglecting. intentionally or uncon-
sciously. iproblems which. if ‘ carefully
developed and considered. would ulti-
mately yield mature fruit. the harvest

Strange, isn't it, if our old ideas were true, that the proclamation “millions‘now living wianever die," goes unchallengedN

Thousands upOn thousands of the world’s must astute Bible students claim that all person ;
who can by any means wiggle along until the year 1925 will have a chance to litre forever. Their» '
