counterpart in the Canaries before many weeks end if Spain be not coerced into submission in the interval Cuba nd Porto Rico are certain to fol low the Phillipines and all the rest Spains domain outside of the- eninsula will go if she continues t the fight for two or three months i longer We have disclaimed any ntentio1 of annexing Cuba in the p present war butof course ulti ately Cuban acquisition is certain nd it will come through the free choice of the Cuban people But we are under no such immediate a restraint as regards the Phillipines Porto Rico the Canaries and the ther outlying Spanish territory unless Spain gives up the fight There is no promise on our side Implied or expressed that we shall not seize and hold any other Spanish colonies It is easy to see that s every square mile of Spanish ter outside of the Peninsula it elf is at the United States mercy i Every square mile of it is sure to be captured if the Spanish threat to prosecute the war to the bitter end is carried out Nobody contends that all the territory which has been and which ay be wrested from Spain will be d by the United States he disposition of the domain is a i question which will not come up fntilion however which will be de termmed in the light of American interests solely In any case of 1oursebe held to the end of the war Some of it then may be exchanged or other territory nearer home or which the United States for any reason deems to be more de sirable But this is a question which will have to be settled in this country by the free voice of tour own people The wishes of the nations of continental Europe Germany Austria and France which are betraying a good deal of anxiety about the matterand which 1arethreats will not have the faintest weight on this side of the

a yearArmy operations for a similar period would amount to a vastly larger sum because of the much greater number of men employed It is safe to say that at least 500000000 would be spent in lson year

present at the time This aroused Vaughns anger and he threw a brick or rock at said Travis which struck him with such force that it caused his death Vaughn when he saw Travis fall rushed up to him and finding him unconsciousimmediately skipped out and has not been seen or heard from since All parties had been drinking beer and it seems that the trouble started when Travis invited the woman who is said to be Vaughns girl to drink and upon her refusal to do so he hit her and the scrap was then taken up by Vaughn with the result above mentioned The tragedy occurred over near the lake A Man Who is

ItcclnnliiR May 8 Comment by Her S II 1010- ToPiCThlng my denomination has ne- comp1IahedPi Ixxzvil 17 Eph v 2527 lTo bo led by tho pastor or some other church officer Christian Endeavor has always sang nified and emphasized denominational loyalty It stands not only for Christ but alto for Ills church and for His church as composed of various Christian denominations It has never made light of denominational tics It has always striven to tighten them It hOB never been nndcnominational but always in tcrdcnominational Not tho least im portant of all its great works has been tho interesting of young people in tho history and work of their denomina tions That theso things are facts and that they havo been fully appreciated by tho Christian denominations is abundantly testified to by tho fact that there are Christian Endeavor societies in 40 different Christian denominations todayIt impossible to bo a loyal Endcav orer and not to bo loyal to our denomi nations and our local churches The pledge makes this impossible It dis tinctly says I promise Him Christ V that I will mako it tho rule of my life to support my own church in every way especially by attending all her regular Sunday and midweek services II Thus it is impossible to bo nn Endeavor cr and to bo faithless to church or do nominationThe references suggest two reasons why Christian Endeavor has done well to emphasize tho importance of tbo church 1 Gods lovo for tho church repro sented by Ills lovo for Zion which typified tho church Pa lxxxvII 17 The Lord says tho psalmist lov oth tho gates of Zion moro than all tho dwellings of Jacob God loves His church with a deep affection with an everlasting lovo Ho loves Zion with a special and distinguishing love not only as compared with tho other nations of tho world bnt oven with other parts of tho Holy Land itself If God love His church so dearly His lovo embracing nil branches of it surely thoso who are Gods should also lovo it and realize its importance Particularly should wi lovo and servo that branch of tho ohuroh in which wo have boon born and raised perhaps or in which at least wo have found Christ and been born into His kingdom 2 Christs lovo for tho church prov ed by Ills death for it Eph v 2537 Christ also loved tho church and gave Himself for it that lIe might sanctify lovoItho church I So should we lovo Christs church amid bo willing to make sacrifices for its prosperity nud its success And how can wo better show this lovo than by being intensely interested in it studying up carefully what our part of tho church has done in saving souls in distributing charity in sending the gospel of Christ to all tho world Blblo Readings Ps xlviii 114 Ixxviii 07 08 oxxii 10 cxxxvil 10 Math v 1810 x C1G xvi 1820 xvIII 1518 xxviii 10 20 Acts ii
