THE WORLD-PROBLEM

still grows deeper and more perplexing: now particularly through the jealousy and distrust among the Powers themselves.

What Is Self-Government?

In answering its own inquiry, “What is self-government?” the Outlook says: “Self-government is not the simplest, it is, on the contrary, the most complicated, form of government.” Yes, it is, to persons who will not govern themselves.

Missionaries and Politics in China

A PRESBYTERIAN missionary in China has written that “the missionary has had his share in fomenting this trouble, and must bear his share of the blame. Some of the missionaries have been politicians as well as Christians.” But nobody can be at the same time both politician and Christian.

Correspondence of the Associated Press

CORRESPONDENCE of the Associated Press, dated Manila, June 12, says: “‘More soldiers’ is the demand which is coming to General Mac Arthur from every department of the islands. Recent events have worked to vindicate General Lawton’s judgment that one hundred thousand troops would be needed to establish American sovereignty over the Philippines.”

Compulsory Arbitration Between Britain and America

In his annual report to the world's convention of the Christian Endeavorers, Secretary Baer "strongly demanded that arbitration between Great Britain and America be made compulsory." Who will do the compelling? Does he expect these two Powers to compel themselves to arbitrate when they both do not wish to? or one of them to compel the other to arbitrate when that other does not wish to? Or do the Endeavorers expect to be able to do the compelling?

Empire and Imperialism

THE United States government in the Philippines has issued a circular, of which the following is a copy:—
United States Military Government in the Philippines. Department Public Instruction.
A Department of Public Instruction for the Philippines has just been established, and I write to ask if you can aid us in the civilization of this new part of our Empire by sending such reports, bulletins, school laws, etc., now or to be issued, as you may have for distribution.
As you read it, did you notice the words, “this new part of our Empire,” and empire spelled with a big E? How long can an “empire” continue without imperialism? And how can an “empire” be carried on without imperialists, and by a republic?

Christian Endeavorers and the Image of the Beast

AT the world's convention of the Christian Endeavorers held in London two weeks ago, Dr. Joseph Parker, the one who, in a sermon, publicly cursed the sultan of Turkey last year, “urged American Christian Endeavorers to nominate Rev. Francis E. Clarke and Rev. Charles M. Sheldon for the highest offices in the United States, as Christian men should be at the head of things.” “Christian men” were at the head of things in the Dark Ages,—they were the popes,—and that is what made the Dark Ages. That was the Beast. And the Image of the Beast is now being made.

The Open Door and War with China

THE chief reason why the Powers, and the United States principally, are so reluctant to recognize a state of war between China and themselves is that the moment war begins between nations, all existing treaties instantly terminate. Therefore if there were now recognized a state of war with China, existing treaties with all the Powers would be ended, and that “open door,” which has given the United States such prestige among the Powers, and upon which the peace of the world is said to hang, would go to with a bang. And that “open door” shut, the Powers would be thrown into a general scramble, each to gain as much as possible of China’s trade, governed by respective “spheres of influence” or actual partition. And that would certainly culminate in a general war. So, whether the Powers will now recognize a state of war with China, really turns on whether they wish to meet a general war not much later on. Therefore they hesitate to recognize any state of war with China; and surely nobody can blame them, and of all things when there is such a vortex before them. If the world is not just now in that time of distress of nations, with perplexity, then when will it ever be so? And this is one of the signs that Jesus gave of the end near. Luke 21:25. The end cometh. “Get ready, get ready, get ready.”

The Two Republics

INQUIRIES are being received as to whether the articles, lately run in the REVIEW, on the Third Angel's Message, relating to the Beast and his Image, will be published in tract or pamphlet form. In answer, we can say that there is no need of it at all; because all that is said in those articles, and a great deal more, entirely up to date, is already in print in book form, and has been for nearly ten years. It is all in the book “The Two Republics, or Rome and the United States.” An equally true title for that book would be “The History of the Beast and His Image;” for there the whole story is told. And it will never get out of date. It will be more and more present truth as the days go by and the making and the work of the Image of the Beast shall go on. Indeed, the very first chapter — “The Last Days of the Republic” — is present-day history. The book has 896 pages, is fully illustrated and handsomely bound, and the price is only $2. Those who have read those articles in the REVIEW will find “The Two Republics” especially easy and interesting reading.
