The Era of Fraud

By Editor

The San Francisco "Chronicle" editorially characterizes the present time as the "era of fraud," and it does not confine this to California. It uses as its object-lesson the great railroad systems of the United States, and goes on to show how the fraud and dishonesty continues with complete immunity from punishment; and it speaks truly. Fraud ramifies through the whole body politic just as the railroads do themselves; and of this very time the prophecy has spoken, in Isaiah 59. Let our readers peruse that chapter in the light of present-day revelations, and then note that all this comes in that period of time when the Lord shall execute judgment.
