and Whittier's poems to the people of
birmingham in one breath. hc probably

an anti-slavery Quaker for more than
forty years past, and that MIR. Bancroft

REPRESENTATIVE ROBINSON, of New
York, has had long interview with the
postmaster general, during which he urged
q Sunday delivery of the mails and the re-
duction of letter postage to one cent. The
postmaster general said the matter should
receive immediate attention. The argu
ment for Sunday delivery is that "as the
mails are brought into the several offices
on Sunday, and as tho clerks are present
to receive them, it would be much more
convenient and no moro expense for the
mails to be Immediately distributed than
to have them locked up for thirty or forty
hours, while it would add but little work
to the carriers"

New Wrinkle of the Book Agent.

1t is stated that an agent from the
North recently visited our city to can
vass for the sale of a certain book. He
visited the residences of a number of our
citizens, and where he did not make
actual cash sales, as was the case in
number OF instances, ne asked permis-
sion to leave the book for examination,
promising to call subsequently and get
it, in the event it was not desired to
keep the volume. Whether or not he
was prevented from calling for the book
is not known, but the book was left with
some ten or dozen citizens, and bill
for $40 against each of them was placed
in the hands of the high constable for
collection. This officer was not aware
of the circumstances until he presented
some of the bills, when he was informed
in each case that no purchase OF the
book had been made, nor any bargain
entered into with the agent, but on the
contrary the volume had been left with
them under the promise that it would
soon be called for. Several of the gem
tlemen against whom these bills Were
presented expressed the desire TO inter-
view the agent and give him gentle

duct, but he is not in the city-having

muLpRow AND rnE TARIFF.

One of the most important questions con-
nected with the administration of all govern
Inents is the proper adjustment Of a system
of tariff duties suitable to their respective
commercial relations and industrial inter-
ests. In no country has it been more i'm
portant question nor more difficult of a
satisfactory solution than in our own,
while at the same time it has nowhere else
been discussed with more learning and abil-
ity, either before legislative bodies or
assemblies of the people. The debates
upon the bill now before Congress for the
creation OF a tariff commission have been
participated in by the leading minds OF both
political parties OF the country, and many OF
the speeches made for and against the meas
ure evinced the closest research and the
highest ability. Among the many
able arguments offered by the opposition
TO the bill, one of the strongest and most
conclusive was made by the Hon. Henry l..
Muldrow, the watchful and energetic repre-
sentative of the First congressional dis
trict Of Mississippi. Taking the standpoint
from which Colonel Muldrow considers the
question, and assuming his premises to be
true, it is difficult TO answer his argument or
to resist his conclusions. Representing an
almost purely agricultural constituency, his
views and opinions are influenced in large
measure, no doubt, by careful study and
thorough understanding of their interests.
He shows most convincingly how hurt
full the present tariff system is to agri-
cultural progress and prosperity, and enters
a most vigorous protest against its longer
continuance. The farmers of Mississippi
have in Mr.. Muldrow staunch friend and
fearless advocate of their rights and inter-
ests. The South needs more such representa-
tives, and when once found the people should
be careful to keep Them

evr.T nEruoDrsr LEADERS.

One of the most delightful sensations pro-
droed by the General Conference OF the
Methodist Church, now in session at Nash
vile, is the prominence given TO the pioneers
of that church, and the difference paid to
Them. The Rev. DIR. Summers, for thirty
wears past book editor, has been the recipient
of much attention, and has been reelected
by rising vote TO the Office Of secretary Of
the conference, which for twenty-five years
he has filled most acceptably. Another
preacher honored as he deserves, is the strong
and manly J. B. McFerrin, who was licensed
to preach in 1925, and has been In the CEN
ference nearly ifty-six years. He has been a
circuit preacher, stationed preacher, presid-
ing elder, college agent, editor, missionary
secretary and book agent, and has been il

Shall the People Rule?
Nashville World

There was an indication the other evening
that a paper in Tennessee whose ability we
have always respected, and never doubted, was
of the opinion that legislator had perfect
right to disregard the wishes of his constitu-
ency, and vote to suit himself. This paper
was the Bdnner, and it was in favor of the
1908, aud is now in favor of the Hawkins
Butler scheme of 6o-6. We had thought,
however, that to carry out This scheme, that
so able paper as the BaHner would not be
willing to yield so vital principle TO the
representative government. This is the very
foundation upon which our system of gov
eminent is constructed. The people rule.
They do not elect men to enact laws for their
own government, and laws that contrary
to their will and wishes. For OF all ideas TO
which our people cling most tenaciously
that OF self-government Is paramount. If
legislators are to be elected TO carry
out their own will and wishes rather
than the will of the people who
elected them, then we have at once estab-
lished kind of aristocracy in republican
government. We are electing as lawmakers,
a set of men who do as they please, and
make laws to govern people, whether that
people is willing to it or not. While our
own people will never submit to The rule of
an aristocracy, the most dangerous result
| from such pernicious idea as that preached
| by the Banner, is, that legislators can do as
they please, and under these circumstances
they will be easy prey to the lobbyist and
speculator always. They represent, accord
| ing to the Banner, nothins-no party and nc
people. They do simply as they please, and
| If 1t pleases them TO sell out to jobbers they
do so. We do hope that the Banner viii
withdraw this idea from public attention
not because the public will adopt it, but fol
| the Banners own sake. 1t may be necessary
to pass the 606, but in order TO accomplish
| that end, it is not necessary to surrender
principles that are the foundation stones OF I
| nee ple's government.

While replies, more or less direct, have
been made to the arguments of MIR. lngersoh
against the Bible, only incidental observa-
tons have been made as TO the style OF argu-
ment he adopts, yet that style is probably
worth more attention than the arguments
themselves, arguments that are not novel and
that owe more TO the declamatory force
with which they are urged than to any logi-
cal power they possess intrinsically. In the
kind OF argument our modern iconoclast re-
sorts to a man may present the case in hand
zs a Judge does when charging jury. The

sr,;ns, hia,,ana ,iesree-ef credence that,
according TO the circumstances and testI-
mony, may probably be given to the state
,,,epts made by the various witnesses. This
leaves the jury in a position to Judge
of the mass of evidence as whole, and to de-
eide what weight lies in corroborstIve
and in contradictory details. The other way
