CONSECRATION.
"Consecrat Ion" w:u the topic yesterday of more than
out senium. The time of year is upon us when ae are

and Ilia example are. still the guide everywhere of risen
who are seexing to live up to the highest Ideal which
haa ever Ufn ooncived-sacrifice of self In service to
others.
Rut titer it always too much of a tendency to limit
consecration to the churrh entirely. Thia should hot he.
Mit n.en and women can spend but little of theirllme In
actual church work while they mutt !alr long and
hard at what t hey are prime to regard as aecular pur-
suits. Hut what thl world need especially la men and
women who will lm consecrated not only on HumLty and
in the church hut. on Monday and wherever they gn.
In polities today America need ccnsecratkm t.eela

The peate atid harmony that rwign In Kepubllcan cir-

now raging ltwen Senator FUkina of West Virginia

a third time and la facing the combined opKittou at
the railroad and atand pat element of hi nlate.

and hla railroads bind WW Virginia with a grip of

of course U'tng a buneilcUry of the tarliT he Is a aland-

Hat The Chieftain haa in t minted out a candidate f r

the llepubhcan organ la proof jeitlve that "the irr.
derona mlmt that away the tltsstlnea at The Chieftain
oTice ha struck a anag."
Tiie Chieftain haa not Intended to name a ticket. It
professes entire inability to da aa. What The Chieftain
aa tried to do la to analyre the character of the nom
inee on Uth ticket and to .lnt out tlum who from
their past nervice to the city woild make gt! ofticia!
The Chieftain cannot see tliat one candidate for city at.
torcter haa .ny great advantage over hi competitor nor
that one ewitdate hr ta collector haa ipialificat hma
that would make the election of hla opttiiient a!t.
gether out of the question. Therefore The Chieftain
believe tuat ho matter which of these candidate'
la elected. goo men will 1 secured I
