The Election and God’s Providence

By Editor

As we go to press the election of the Republican national ticket is assured by a good majority, Mr. William H. Taft will be chosen president; and "the country is safe for four years more," some of our ardent Republican readers would exclaim. But they would have had no more doubt about the matter if the Democratic ticket had been elected. It is worth something to know that "the Most High ruleth in the kingdoms of men, and giveth it to whomsoever He will." Mr. John R. Johnson was elected governor of Minnesota; Mr. Charles E. Hughes, of New York; and Mr. Judson Harmon, of Ohio. The latter seems to be a whisky triumph.
