srnoxoFioiiT WILL DE MADE AGAINST IT A Suggestion to Promote Good Koadi and farmers Interests Washington D C January 3- IlIgBThe proposition for the establishment 01 postal savings banks in this country is meeting a good deal of quiet favc in Washington It is said in fact that the Postmaster Generals bill will stand a better chance in the United States Senate than any other of the financial mea ures proposed or likely to be proposed by the present national administration Yet it is predicted that there will be a strong fight oni iiwhenthat it will meet with manifest and determined opposition As it is an administration and Republican measure it is not hard to dc tcrminc where the opposition will develop but Gen Gary thinks the proposition so comparatively sim P so manifestly advantageous to the people of the country that he has great hopes of it enactment into a law He has studied all sides of the question and will doubtless make a strong presentation of his case when called upon by Congress to support the plan by facts and figures As ill example near at home he will probably show the excellent- workings of the system in Canada where with her five millions of people there were on deposit in postal savings banks a year over twentysix million dollars small accounts Gen Gary says that the States is behind other countries in this respect most civilized countries having postal savings systems thus giving an opportunity for the people of the poorer and medium classes to safely invest hard earned savings Inves tigation shows that this country is sadly in need of such an institu tion Private savings banks left the people of many large com munities and in some cases almost entire States without facilities whereby they may Invest their cash surplus The sole conven Jence he says which these people have cn3oyCIl and are to nay Is use acuity for exchange af forded by the moneyorder system of the Post Office Department As an evidence of this during the current year more than 52000000 piP200000000 was received and aid out Millions of money or ers were bought to be used by ofrfilretablishment of the postal banks and the receipt of deposits by the overnment is as to the invest which the Governmcnt- must adopt in order to pay a suitable interest on the depos its It is proposed to pay in- erest at the rate of 2 per cent r 24per cent and many people assume that the Government could not find proper investment for the oney deposited which would en ble it to pay that rate of interest Gen Gary on the other hand be eves that there will be no diffibculty whatever in investing deposits in firstclass securities which would not only pay the in- crest proposed but at the same nie enable the Government to reduce its expenses in other directions The interestbearing the United States is now about 635000000 andall of it bears 34 per cent or more If the deposits were invested in these secum ties it is evident that the Gay- rnmcnt would save the difference between the 2 or 25 per cent and b the 3 per cent or at least that payingThe Postmaster General has va ous other suggestions in regard investmentsOne suggestions how imprcsseditself scheme of General Stone the acting president of the League of ood Roads of America who pr- ooscstht the Government shall invest thedeposits in county bonds througboutthe various States the oney to be used in the construc on of good country roads The proposition seems a simple and l- easible one and one which will kely meet with great favor with farmers after its provisions are understood IIisbonds and sell them to the overnment and pay the same in rest on them to the Government paydepositorsTills interest would be more than met by the money which is annually used in working on country roads and keeping them in a passable condition The great advantagep apparent from this bonds is in the fact that the money would not leave the com at unity where it was deposited stead of going to large business- enters for investment as wouldn the case in the purchase her securities which have been a directlyinouh to the people of the l 1 r s i Carbuncles ICpAppoared Each Season Until llIoo WAS

the Dlrdeo Jellico Coal Company the Main Mountain Company the Wooldridge Coal Company and the Proctor Coal Mining Company The mines are on the Louisville and Nash ville and Cincinnati Southern Railroads and are easily accessible They produce coal which is equal to the Pittsburg district product but the companies which own them are hampered capital and have not made any money out of them The coal was mined as a rule only as it was needed and ordered and when a Urge prospectIve thermore the companies could not afford to have the capital lying idle which great yards full of coal represented This the supplyWilliam of the firm of Hen represenlalives was in Louisville last week and notified the companies which operate the mines in Southeastern Kentucky to get together and agree upon a price for their properties In accordance suggestion the owners of the several mines will have a meeting In Louisville next week and they will then finally agree upon a price for their prop erty The mines are valued at 3003000 Miners throughout Kentucky and Tennessee and we might say other coal min ing states have every reason to rejoice at the defeat of the Crawford railroad scheme which was voted upon last Friday al Nashville The scheme as we have been Informed was to secure from the city of Nashville 300006 to enable said road to build into that city and in return wo un derstand said railroad guaranteed to fur nlsb coal to the consumer for a stated number of years at the low price ofnine propoSltlonattempted and which if carried out meant placing the miner of the coal regions through which this road passed and in fact all miners whose product entered Nashville on almost a level with convict labor For his work tho convict gets his food and clothing and those who know what they are talking about claim that In order to deliver coal at Nashville accord- Ing to the above agreement the miner must suffer an unjust cut in wages and to that of a Bare and from the vote cast against the proposition we judge that the laboring man of Nashville said they would not under any consideration be a party to a move which meant so greal an injury to a class of laborers OUR GUARANTEE 10000 IN

tothoni Ho was under tho guldanco and control o tho Iroly Sprlt most fully Tho Father having testified to the fact that Ho was His beloved well pleasing Son tho Spirit now leads Him Into this great conflict with tho dovll at the very beginning of His public work that Ho may meet tho adversary face to taco and overcome him And how In that Ho Himself hath suffered being tempted Ho is nblo to succor them that nro tempted Hob 11 18 Ho had been subject for 80 years to nil tho temptations of nn ordinary human lifo but this Is something special and as Dr Weston enye has to do with hint as Son of Man II Son of God and tho Messiah 8 And when Ho had fasted 40 days and 40 nights Ho was afterward an hun dnyHothing on tho earth for Moses passet through It twIce anti Elijah onco Deut IT I 18 j I Kings xix 8 On tho Moun- of Transfiguration wo find tho threo vlu fasted 40 lays There must bo some wondrous significance connected with It which wo havo not yet had revealed to us In Mark zl 12 wo read of Another occasion on which Ho was hungry and ono of Ills last utterances on tho cross was I thirst John sir 28 but what an awful thirst that must havo been I 3 And when tho tempter camo to Him ho raid If thou bo tho Son of God com mand that theso stones bo made bread God hal testified This Is My Beloved Son but tho devil questions It to Ills face with this It As In tho garden of Eden ho questions tho word of God with his Yea hath God Mill Gen III 1 and hits ever since been doing tho same thing so ho does not hesitate to faco tho Son of God Himself with his devilish doubts Think it not strange then if ho oft ap proaches you In this way but recelvo not his doubts it is better not tolisten to him 4 nut Ho answered anti said It is written man shall not llvo by bread alono but by every word that procccdcth out of tho mouth of God Not tho gratification of our desires but tho will of God Is tho great thing Just as in our words wo show our loved ones our hearts so God In Ills word has given us Ills heart for us and God is love Shall wo bo satU led with Ills heart and Ills way and thus live on Ills word or shall wo insist on having all things minister to our comfort at all costs 6 Then tho dovll takcth Him up Into tho Holy City nnd settcth Him on n pin nnelo of tho temple Up to Jerusalem tho city of tljo great king chapter v 05 Do not stop to ask how but simply believe and consider tho temptation nnd tho vic tory anti ask tho Spirit to apply it to your own rout Tho wilderness nnd tho hunger and tho stones suggest tho hard nnd dallylifepinnacle thereof suggest holy things and tho heights thereof not so common but far niece dangerous ground because moro holy 0 And Faith unto Him If Thou bo the Son of God cast Thyself down for It Is written Ho shall give Ills angels charge I concerning Thee and in their hands they shall bear thee up lest at any time Thou dash Thy foot against a stone Tho devil can quota Scripture and sometimes qulto freely and at great length but never to glorify God nor to help a soul to know Him Ho always perverts It with tho pur pose of working ruin Tho man who thinks that because ho is a child of God and controlled by tho Spirit therefore mistakeilltho dovll He would do tvnll to consider0 i be something when ho is nothing ho do celveth himself If anyman think that ho knowcth anything ho knoweth nothing yet as ho ought to know Gal vl 8 I Cor vlll 2 7 Jesus said unto him It Is writtenI again Thoushnlt not tempt tho God Scripture never contradicts Scripture but explains it and instructs us how to avert Its abuse Jesus quoted It from tho heart to tho glory of God believing every word but tho devil uses it only wickedly Wo may bo said to tempt GodI when wo mako n self willed demand Ills help or In any way claim Ills prom ises for selfish erds Our Lord lived thatI tho Father might bo glorified and taught us that when wo are willing to live thus wo can ask what wo will and receive IL 8 Again tho dovll taketh hint up into an exceeding high mountain and sheweth Him nfl tho kingdoms of tho world and tho glory of them II The first temptation was to satisfy ills physical need to satisfy Himself on tho ground that Ho was en titled to it tho second was to show Him self nnd what n great ono Ho was the third was to accept tho world without tho way of tho eros Tho prince of this orldI offers it simply on condition that it be ac cepted as from him and that ho be thanked for It 9IIAnti salth unto Him All these things will I give Thee If Thou wilt fall down nnd worship me Tho tlmo will como when tho antichrist tho

praytrffla15untPrayer i the Lords Prayer in tho sermon on the mount but there is no reason why it should not havo been given twice In the first instance in that general address s co tjwAla OOnd afc UioJriK quest or a aisclple as Luke records in this passage Christ and prayer are hero brought closely together and wo may look at the toplo in the light of Christs relation to prayer 1 Christs habit of prayer Tho thetdent of tho losson is brought as result of Christs habit bf praying Ho not only held constant sonl communion with God but often engaged in post v live outward prayers and on this occa aba when Ho ceased praying ono of tho disciples asked Him to teach then to Ftwasgreat crises of His lifo lie agonized in prayer to God In tho more quiet and less important moments of His life Ho found time for constant communion with God If Christ needed to bo faith ful in prayer how much moro wo need to bol 2 Christs model of prayer In an swer to tho question of the disciple Christ gave as a model and form of prayer tho Lords Prayer It has since stood ns tho model of prayer and has been universally used as a form of pray er While not given to4 tho church for tho purpose of constant repetition yet thero is no reason nt all why it should not bo used often as a form of prayer Ono characteristic of this prayer is its filial spirit Christ teaches ui here toI address God Father when wo come to Him iu prayer and this should en courage us to como Another character istic of this prayer is that God conies first tho petitioner comes second Thero are fivo petitions in Lukes account of tho Lords Prayer Two of these five pertain to tho cause of God and they como first Three refer to tho wants of man they como last In prayer as In everything else wo should place God first and self second Tho interests of His kingdom the advancement of His cause should occupy tho first place in our thoughts nnd hearts desire Onr personal needs should occupy n second any place Too often wo reverse tho or den nnd look upon prayer simply as n petition to God for personal blessings 8 Christs encouragement to prayer Ho encourages us hero by tho parablo of tho man who by his importunity obtains tho loaves for his friends nt midnight and again by tho declaration that if wo ask wo shall receive Let us tako Christs encouragement and Imitate His exam pIe in constancy and fidelity in prayer Biblo Headings Isn lv 10 5 Ps vl 0 x 17 lxv li 2i xcix 1 9i Math vi 613 j vii 711 Lukoxviii 114 John xi 41 42 xiv 1215 Eph vi 18 PhiL iv 0 Col iv 2 I Thcss v 17 I Tim II 18 JaB v 1320 tIUarrled
