He put on a great campaign and is deservindg o the fine vote that was occur ed him.

For a hundred years and more many of the moat gifted of our intellectual aoothsayers have preached the non-existence of God and the sell-sufficiency of man. By doing so they have unwittingly created a human monster, a thing of death and fiendish devilry, man without God.
