Rev. Arthur W. Spooner. D. D.. of the, Vi rut Presbyterian Church, opened the meeting by otatinu it to be a purely religi- ; out one. brought together for the purpose of reitchRij; thoae men who have little or no interest in the Christian religipn, ta all ^>f whom an invilatioa was extended to join With the churches of Cape May. 'The - men Rang the gospel songs.led by the dies; ra. with marked enumsiaam. J. Woodruff Eld red ge rendered a vi solo. Rev. George Williams of the Vint Baptist Church read the Scripture, and prayer was offered by Rev. S. t.Gaskill of thr First M. E. Church. Dr. Spooner's remarks upon the subject of "The Biggest Fool in Cape May” w< timely and to the point. He spoke of the three classes of fools, as recorded in tb< Bible, and pointed oat the foolishnea* o: a man's socalied "honesty of belief.” “Be cause a man is honest in bis belief,” sait lie. "is'no resaon that he is right-" A uamber of apt illustrations were used it proof of this contention. Dr. Spooner then laid particular emphasis upon the need of men in the church. *nd the necessity of practical Christianity in busini municipal affairs. He appealed civic pride which everv man must manifest in order to make an idea] seaside city Th«f question of whether Japan shall light Russia, he said, was not near so important as the question of whether the men of Cape May shall fight the forces of evil here in their own community. The matter of meeting again next Son day was put to rote, land resulted unanimously in the adrausUre. Rev. George Williams of the First Baptist Church will lead the meeting next Snnday afternoon,

beginning at S.4S.

Senator Crease's Public Spirit. Senator L. M.

Senator Crease since he has been in public life, has dem ynstrated repeatedly that the best interests of the people whom he represents are stall times safe In eis bands, and that while he is a member of the state's governing body Cape May county's wants will be given the highest consideration at the hand* of our law-makers.—Ocean City Sentinel.

Judge Kirkpatrick's Vindication. The affirmation of Jndge Andrew Kirk Patrick's decisions in.the asphalt snit by the United States Circuit Court of Appeals la one of the most notable daclakms rendered by that court in many years. Based on the contentions raised in the appeals taken from Receiver Tatnall to Judge Kirkpatrick, certain interests behind the parties to the snit nude s bitter personal attack upon the court, and in support of the attack personalities entirely ontaids of the snit were entered into. The influence behind the opposing litigants was sufficiently great to carry the quarrel to Washington, In defiance of decency and common Justice, Judge Kirkpatrick is to be heartily congratulated upon the complete vindicaiiob of bis legal aenruen and soundness In the law.—New-

Id this cleansing work Mr. Boose' veil has done more than in any other accomplishment to make himself secure in the favor of thonghtfnl Americans. It has been discouraging, no doubt, to see uncovered such a mam of mercenary cal-, loosneas and depravity, bnt It has been n wholesome experience, or rather the be' ginning of one, for we seem to be hardly beyond tbe tbreahold. Tbe moral slack, usas of American political life has ] long known, bat not sinoe the Star Boole Scandals has it been brought ao relentless ly to the lignt. In hanking Mr. Bristow’s investigation, in apparently go|ng over tbeheadotMr Payne and his foolish "hoi air" scepticism. In appointing prominent Democratic lawyer* to aid in the investigation. and in r re pacing to perform aim! nltary feats in other department*, tbe President has shown his fondamseul integrity snd usefulness. In mors locla purification the first plaos belongs to C'lr-cnit-AUorney Folk, of St. Louis, whose a during the year jnst post has made national figure. Next to the activity against corruption, tbe most impress:'t purely internal development has baen the enlivening of the negro question, partly by lynching* aad the ciimes which cana-d them, partly by the President’s not alyra' > tactful activities, largely through the of each politicians as Gorman, and a little by the moralists of New Eng land and their breed e sewbere.

The principal development of tbe month «t the capital i. that .Senator Hanna has finally convinced hU loyal friends and admirers that hr U not a candidate for the presidency. As he was thr only man. other I ban tbe President, bribed to have tbs ghost of a chance to get thr nomlnstioa IbU year, this leaves Mr Roosevelt in undisputed possession of the field. There was s genera! feeling, true or false, that the opposition to the President came mainly from Wall Street aod like ’centers of Wealth, which simply strengthened Mr. Roosevelt with tbe rest of the country, and made it harder tor any other man to enter tbe field against him, bad any other man been ao inclined. Senator Hanna never had any such intention, but the men who hoped to seat him In the White Honse were bard to convince. And if Wall street had its wish. It would not lie any bettor off than it is now, for no man has a higher ideal of honor between government and poople than Senator Hanna. A s for the senator * army of peraonal friends who have been urging him to make tbe not, they did not see, a* clearly as tha senator must have seen, the unwisdom ot baring it appear that W%» street had beaten on* candidate and named another—even though the appearances were false in foot.
