The withdrawal of James Wicker

has announced, according to As-r

clears the air considerably for A*;>SKa

the fact that tiie Republicans huu
been split in Alaska, Wickersham ami
anti- Wick* rsham. Neither the Repub
icans nor IV.uoc.ats in Alaska or m\
where for that reason, should hav»

* TEMPTATION SUBJECT
OF SUNDAY SERMON
X
I*****************
At the service in the Method!'-*
• church last evening Rev. Carter read
I for the Scripture lesson the first fif
f teen verses of the fourth chapter of
l -.ike’s gospel, which gives an account
of the temptation of Jesus.
The seiTnon was largely in ex plan
ition of the account of the temptation
‘Jesus,1v said Rev. Carter, ‘ Was -
[ ,potless character. As compared wit!
i TJuddlia, Confucius and Mohammed
! Tie was superior in the fact that
claim of spotlessness of character \v:v
>vcr attributed to them.”
Refering to the temptev’s sugg« *
\ion that Jesus, if ho were hungry
should turn the stones into bread, .*
hing which is done every time r
grain of wheat is grown. Rev. Cart1
<aid, “Jesus never used hifc powe
whatever it might be, for selfish mir
poses.”
“The temptation to hi spectacular,
aid Rev. Carter, by leaping off th
temple to see if God would let
tcntly to earth was a thing that d
not appeal strongly to Jesus, and v::
pushed aside.”
The third point mentioned was t
-emptation which has come to mn***
in ambitious man, namely, to bo sv.i,
iervient to the forces of evil for th
purpose of gaining the world. This
.00, was rejected by the Master.
“Men are drawn by the heroin
•mid Rev. Carter, “and the charact'
>f Jesus is full of heroism, and whe
ightly presented and intuitively
.veil as intelligently understood, is :
character; when lifted up in the liw
,{ truo Christians, never fails to Jra
nen out of their selfishness and awn
>om their vulgar ambitions.”
