Conditions Esettered by Love.
A KNOWLEDGE OF MANS MODE OF
LIVING WILL MAKE GOOD
CHRISTIANS.
On. Y. Herald.)

On. Y. Herald.)
The Rev. Thomas Dixon, Jr.. con-
tinued his series of sermons on
"Souialisn." in the TWenty-third
Street Baptist church, Yesterday
morning by pointing out the duty of
to-day in loving one another. The
pastor found his text IN John, Xiii,
34-"A new commandment | give
unto you, that ye love one another;
as | have loved you, that ye also love
one another"
Mr.. Dixon said that there arc some
parts Of the Bible with which we are
too familiar. The very fact Of this
tamiliarIty leads persons to cease at
taching due Importance to them. But
there is a woful neglect on our part
of ffamlliariztng ourselves with the
conditions Of men living about Us.
If men truly loved one another as
they are hidden to DO in this new
commandment of Christ, do you sup.
pose they would carry on their in-
famous swindling schemes or en-
deavor to circupyent their fellow
men?
Love i'll its positive element will
make all men Obedient. Action is
an evidence of love. A man who
loyes God wIll DO his bidding. II is
action that talks not q sentimental
word Of mouth Show me a man, 40
matter how base or what his cOndi
ton is , and I will show to you some
thing in that man that is worthy oil
commentator. | sometimes believe
there is great church growing NJ
outside Of the walls of Cnrislian
courches, just as cities sprout and
grow outside of larger cities. This
is when | see those who own or pro.
fe5s no allegiance to any religious
sect doing acts of charity and good
ness, although they are oblI7ious OF
the fact that they are doi0g Gods
will. Love is the harmony we detect
amid the din AMI confusion of eyi
that swells a chorus over the globe
The Democrat. (Scotland Neck, Halifax Co., N.C.) 1884-1896, 1890-04-03
OK. y. C.. THURSDAY. APRIL 3. 1896.

The result of his comparison de
u.ns:races tHst rh.le tte entire vote
OF these states combined IS less than
four times the vote Of New York.
Mr.. Clevel4nd received 227,0G7 less
votes IN those states than his den-
oc,atic colleague. running OF lie
tickets With him. An average OF
1853 in each state.
These facts can Only he accounted
for IN one of two ways, viz: Tue
popularity or Mr.. Ciegeland or the
great popularity of all the democratic
candidates running IN those states
This question We DO not propose to
discuss here.
IN the state of New York Mr.
Clevelands vote was jnst ? per
cent less than That of Coy, Hill. IL
our state-Connecticut-his plGral>
ity showed him TO he ! J per cent. be
low Judge Morris plurality for gov
ernor. While in Texas his vote was
very nearly per cent less than that
Of Gov. Ross.
Deducting Mr.. CIeveland's loss Of
votes inBufalo, bis home city. where.
for personal reasons be ran & $50
votes behind GOV. HUI, from his en-
tire deficiency Of 4,707 IN the entire
state. it will be seen that he was be-
hind Gov. Hill bat 7.917, or one
eighth of one per cent less taan his
deficiency in Texas.
In all these mugwump charges OF
treachery against Gov. Hill, we have
not seen single charge made
against our late candidate, Judge
Morris, or Gov. Ross Of Texas. while
ia common fairness it would seem
that they might be applied to the
former with much greater reason, and
to the latter with six times the force
that they can properly be applied to
Gov. Hill, if a comparison of the
votes received in their respective
states ls jast criterion upon which
TO base them.
We believe in Justice and fair deal
ing and 1espise falslfers, peryerters
Of facts to suit partisan purpOses.

Beng as it is, TO a certain extent.
the foundation of all that Is fuan-
cial and commercial in this fair
land of ours. the Old North State.
agriculture should demand the
attention OF every thinking man
who has at hIs heart tAe good and

The South is an agricultural
country. Cotton. tobacco, corn and

Therefore the cuItivators of these

They form the foundation. the very
