groun s .: I believe we are in da ger of
sac.rifijcing Protestantism for p litics.
I am 4 Reformer, but the' Bible hould
be be ore politics with every Prot stapt,
as it is with me. I believe ,there are a
great, many Roman 'Catholics who would
gladln leave the Church of Rom if it
wsre not for the incopsistency o Pro-
testants. They are already sayin that
our B ble must not be much wh 'n we
have to leave a part of it put tf our
who° s. I hate the teachings •f the
Roma Catholic Church, but love every
Roma Catholic, and -firmly beli ve it
to be bvery Protestant's duty to o all
he car to help to bring them ou from

ing th"s to pre.* myself, but to et all
who 4re in •fai•or of our Bible know
what they have a right to expec from
me, I am stroegly in favor of ptohibi-
tion, a'nd believe that it should c me in
the nefar future, and I can say hat I
never drank a "glass of whisky in my
life. I will support . whichever party
gets in power in Protestantism, P ohibi-

GEN LEMEN : There is a ItIng piece in last
week's XPOSITOR, on Scriptoria Readings, with
Rev. D. Cochrane and Rev. Dr. Nellie given as
autherity in favor of them. Is man _better
authority than God of how nmeh of the bread of
life our children may cat, and how much of the
water of life our children may arink? The Dom-
inion Government has had nothing to do with
the Scriptural readings, some thought t at my
words in my last letter implied that, ut the
Bible condemninfidelity, scepticism, an so on,
and if we put such men at - tie head of affairs,
what may we expect. I am equested by Mr.
McMillan to attend his mee ings, but I don't
purpose taking the platform ad arguin with
one who does not believe in te inspir tion of
the Bible.. You, the Electors, iay want o know
my reasons forstskiing to be elected. I c me out
from purely consarentious motives, and if any
one knows of anp reason why I should not be
-elected I ask then.% to give it at the nom nation,
as -it should be every man's wish to find out all
he can about his 'representative. 1 hay-' had a
warns reception, and have reason- to bell ve that
I will be elected with a. lara e majority 1 ask
-every elector who is in favor of the Bibi; to en-
deaver to -be present at the nomination.
