“ I must praise Hood’s Sarsaparilla, for it is
wonderful medicine. I suffered. 10 years with

and fainting spells. Sometimes I would
be almost still with cold perspiration. I spent
a great deal of mone for medical attendance,
but I did not get an eneiit until my daughter
told me. about Hood 3 Sarsaparilla, and I began
to take it. 7 I weighed less than 100 lbs. and was

As the World Sees It.

The Herald in its Sunday lay sermon,
gives this view of the Presbyterian
strife against heresy and the Salvation
Army method for making the wicked
better. Who shall say the picture is
overdrawn. as the average worldling
views the situation. It says, “Suppose
we measure two different organizations
of Christians, one at the upper end, the
other at the lower end of society—
namely, the Presbyterians and the Sal-
vation Army folk. They have both
made recently a very interesting ex-
hibit, and a comparison of the two ex-
hibits leads the secular and practical
mind to some odd conclusions.

The Presbytm =ans declare that no
workman shall rennin in their ranks
unless he thinks just as they think. The
amount of work he can do in the way
of persuading men to lead honest lives
is of no consequence whatever unless
he subscribes to certain fixed dogmas.
It seems to be a crime to save the world
unless it is saved in their peculiar way.
Dr. Briggs and Professor Smith are
not guilty of laziness, neither have
they Leen accused of immorality.
They simply say that men ought to
read the Bible and then think abdut it.
But their brethren retort that men
ought to read the Bible and find it just
what John Calvin found, no more and
no less, 'and because these two scholars
have declared that they find a good
deal more than Calvin ever dreamed of
and things vastly better than he discov-
ered, the serious attempt is made to
thrust them into outer darkness, bran-
ded with the stamp of theological in~
famy. In other words, the Presbyter-
ians apparently assert that doing good
in what you believe to be God’s way is
not enough : you must do it in the Pres-
byterian way. So the world drifts to
the bad while they try a man for heresy.

The Salvation Army people have no
theology. Their creed is conspicuous
for its absence. They haven’t much of
a body of doctrine, but what little they
have seems to be effective in produc-
ing results. They have builded their
powerful organization on three duties
and an injunction. The three duties
are, Love God, love Christ, love your
fellow man; and the injunction is, to
show the quality of your love by saving
the lost. Instead, therefore, of meet-
ing in solid conclave to Spill: theologi-
cal hairs, you will find them down in
Water street praying with some drunk-
ard or pleading with some dissolute
woman. They have the eloquence of
sympathy and pity; they think noth-
ing too menial if thereby they can give
some poor soul fresh air ; they are ig-
norant of Calvin, and neither know
nor care what the Westminster Cate-
chism contains, but they dive to the
depths of corruption and drag up daily
some poor creature who has lost all
traces of his early innocence.

There you have work, and hard work.
Such devotion is seldom seen in this
“naughty world." If there is such a
thing as practical religion these people
have it. You don’t like their meth-
ods ? No matter ; you do like the re-
sults of their nightly toil, and be you
Christian or pagan you must needs ac-
cord them the credit due. To really
save. one beleaguered soul is better
than to talk about saving souls for a
year. The body of men and women
who are engaged in doing the former
re worth a thousand times more to the
century, the generation. than the body
of men who do the latter.

If the Master were to visit the earth
would He frown on heresy hunters?

Would he encourage the Salvation Arr

my ? Would he find more to approve
in the t‘rial of Dr. Briggs than 1n the

' work in the slums of Water street,

where Magdalens'are being redeemed
nd drunkards are being saved.
' The standard of religious value is not
a creed ; it is effective work. A man is

——--...

The Connecticut Senatorshlp.

The Hartford Post quite bluntly says
of the approaching Senatorial contest
in. this state, that “if it becomes nec-
essary, facts can be produced, show-
ing that very considerable and wide
Republican interests are opposed to
the re-election of General Hawley (for
a third term.) and that they have good
reasons for their opposition. ”

From ,the GAZETTE’S entirely inde-
pendent standpoint, it does not seem
that the above is quite a just or even
politic way of putting it. That General
Hawley should be desirous of a third
term in the United States senate is en-
tirely natural and proper. It is a good
club to belong to and earnestly sought.
He has seen his esteemed colleague,
Senator Platt, chosen for :. third term,
without even a breath of opposition.
He has also seen, and if politically wise.
has seriously noted the terrible wreck
President Harrison has made of his
political and personal status if not that
of his party, by allowing his over-zeal-
ous friends to force his renomination
against the protest of the most sagac-
ious, active and earnest workers in the
Republican party. So far as the situa-
tion in this section of the state is as yet
developed or has found expression
among influential and ardent Republi-
licans, with whom we have conversed,
it is not with any feeling of personal
disrespect for General Hawley‘or lack
of admiration for his many undispu-
tedly good qualities. It is rather an-
other case of “not that I love Caesar less
but the party more,” influenced also
in a measure no doubt, by the general
and growing popular dislike for long
time office holding and second and
third terms. Were Mr. Samuel Fesseno
den willing to become a candidate
for Senator. he would no doubt be sup-
ported with practical unanimity by rep-
resentatives from this section, with
powerful allies in all other parts of the
state, and for the special reason among
others, that earnest, working Republi-
cans believe that the party organiza-
tion would be inspirited and strength»
ened by placing him in General Haw-
lev’s seat. But Fessenden will have
none of it. In this situation other
prominent Republicans have been sug-
gested and their respective merits and
strength, earnestly canvassed. Hons.
Augustus Brandagee of New London,
and Henry C. Robinson of Hartford
have their warm admirers In the
consideration of the matter, so far as
Republican sentiment has become
crystalized, it would seem to have
won a sort of general assent, that Hart-
ford ‘be accorded the honor of furnish-
ing Gen. Hawley’s successor. This
matter of the locality of the candidate
being settled, in so far as can at pres-
ent be. foreseen, a pretty powerful
search light seems to have been centred
upon the capitol city. With rare and un-
usual unity of selection, a large major-
ity of those Republicans who think it
for the advantage of their party that
new blood be infused into the senator-
ial office and some man more recently
and closely identified with the Repub-
lican masses of the state be selected,
seem to have hit upon Governor Bulk-
eley. To him they accord the undis-
puted credit of keeping the Democrats
out and the Republicans in power in
the state, during the past two years.
His un unted courage and vigorous
personality has assuredly secured that
much to his party. It is also claimed
for him, that while he is a gentleman
of irreproachable character, and thor-
oughly resolute and conscientious in

his performance of duty, he has phe- *

nominal executive and business skill;
a wonderful capacity for work; that
when that “work” leads to efforts for
the success of his party, he has always
shown a most extraordinary “get
there” ability. If it be charged that
he is an active manipulator of party
machinery, it can be as justly said, he
is a firm and honest believer in the
principles of his party. He is earnestly
and heartily liked by a host of admir-
ing political and personal friends and
his political opponents respect, if be-
times they fear. the courage and con-
summate ability with which be over-
comes opposition.

His friends claim with just enthusi-
asm, that his selection for Senator
would infuse new life into the party and
do more than the election of any other
man, to ensure its dominant power and
growth in the state. This is the cru-
cial point of the senatorial issue, as
viewed by large numbers of the most
earnest and intense Republicans of
Connecticut, or as the Willimantic
Journal better phrases it :— '

“ That issue, and that alone, is forc-
ing itself upon us, we cannot evade it,

if we would. The Republican party is
m a crisis in its history. It is no time
to sentimentalize over ‘honoring ’ any
man. To reorganize, reconstruct, to
infuse energy in place of the apathy
which accompanies defeat,—these de-
mands of the party appeal to every Re-
publican. They are far removed from
any personal issues. Because in this
crime one feels that Gov. Bulkeley’s
election would be of vast benefit to the
Republican party, that the cr 'ng exi-
gencies of the occasion deman it.-—be-
cause one feels that, it does not follow
that he is hostile to Gen. Hawley. It is
simply placing the welfare of .theparty
above both men, and deciding the
question solely With a View to that wel-
fare. * "f * Morgan G. Bulkeley
goes to the senatetof the-United States,
he (goes as a. man in no way. handicap-
pe . He is placed face to face with‘the

‘ problems and questionsof to-da . He

would bring to the ‘solutiOn 0 these

and'an energy and vigor which Would
not falter so long as an vthing remained
undone for the good of the state .and
the party electing him. The times de-
mand exactly the type of ability which
he in so large degree possesses.”

Gov. Bulkeley in the senate. would
at once go to the front among the noted
workers of that bedy. No citizen of
Connecticut would ever charge him
with neglecting to reply to their letters
or with snubbing them 'when calling
on him in Washington. He would shed
lustre and honor upon Connecticut, be
conspicuously fearless,serviceable,com-
’panionable, and a recognized force in
that august body of the Nation’s states-
men. It is not at all surprising that
the desire to place him there, is not on
ly spreading, but taking such deep root,
in the desires of earnest Republicans
throughout the state. '

A New Leader.

At the last meeting of Dwyer’s City
of Norwalk Band the following officers
were elected : Michael Riordan, presi-
dent: Thomas Hickey, vice president;
P. Monohan. treasurer ; Walter Bur-
liugame, manager; Thomas Hickey, li-
brarian , Michael Riordan, leader.

Search Warrant Out for New Blood.

Let us predict that within the next
two years there will be a grand change
in the face of the Republican party.
We look for a settled change in the
gearing of the party machinery, and
there may be many surprises grow out
of the party revolution. The old
stagers must step down and pass
out, and younger blood will nerve
more supple limbs in the phalanx that
will meet and drive off the Democratic
legions in the next campaign. —News.
