Whereas There Is in this city whosesale and
shameful Dissertation of the Holy sabbath day,
carried Ca not only by the people of the world.
but encouraged and supported by the press OF
members, and tolerated by those who are the
sworn promoters of the law and order The
public conscience Is dragged down by long con-
tinued and glaring violations of all moral stand
ards until 1t has made the name OF our city
synonym for all the ungodly practices that stig-
gest themselves to the bad tendencies Of man,
bringing us as a whole into reproach In the esti
nation of the people OF other sections;
Therefore be it resolved by the members OF
South vlcksburg NJ. 4. Church, South, In con
press and emphatic terms condemn all sabbath
breaking, either work or amusement, the Sunday
baseball, the Sunday horse race and all other
violations OF the Sabbath either for pleasure or
profit, and by these presents declare to the
world our sacred allegiance to the laws of God.

express command OF Him, hut kept by Him In
recognition OF the sanctity He gave it. and given
to the world that IL might be weekly blessing TO
all generations and all nations.
Resolved, further, That we invite the other
churches OF the city to cooperate with US In
throwing around the sabbath day again the
mantle of protection; putting themselves on
record as being loyal tOfGod's commands, until
which they are considered by the world as being
day, and that all the Christian people OF the city
rise up In their superior strength and demand the
enforcement OF the sabbath laws and observation
of that sacred day by our entire citizenship.

To be serious, the expressions have
been considering and several others of
like tenor which have appeared in the
Record seem to me to be utterly
wrong as to fact, misleading as to
principle, hurtful as to policy and
dangerous as to precedent. They are
very comforting to saloonists and cor
rupters of public morals. We make
nothing by disparaging good men and
their work. 1t is unwise to shoot men
in the back who are fighting our bat
ties for us. There are great battles
to be fought in the near future and
we need to keep all our forces in the
field. When all the preachers and all
the women let evil doers alone; when
we turn politics over to the saloon
bosses and their kind of politicians
they will be happy; but when the
wicked rule the Ieople mourn. In
my opinion your Observatory man is
right wrong. He is helping the side
he don't want to help.
In Christian love,
j. b. GAMBRELL.

and he issued an appeal to the voters
of England, which for tcrseness, pa
triotism and lofty craftsmanship was
never excelled by any similar dOcu-
ment. There was at the same time a
Christian woman in England, infiuen-
tial, talented and brave. She appealed
to the women and all good men to do
what they could for peace and justice.
These two voices rang in the hearts of
the masses the election came OF and
passed. Beaconsfield's "gnnpowder
and glory policy" was utterly beaten,
and peace was maintained. Tens of
thousands of graves were not dug, and
the mothers of England and the moth
ers in the East did not mourn their
sons slain.
The name of that preacher was
Chas. ii. Spurgeon. The name of the
woman was Mrs. Lucas, the Quaker
ess, John Bright's sister. Though
Sturgeon did condescend to meddle
in politics, and was souDdly abused
for it by the Tories, he has not been
regarded altogether a failure. And
the peace loving world honors the
brave preacher and the true woman
whom Mr.. Gladstone regarded among
the chief forces that prevented a great
Eastern war, and moved England up
OH Il higher moral plane.

Mississippi owes him debt of graft
tude. Ifyour Observatory man, like
Mark Tapley, wants a chance to come
out strong, let him try to convince the
people of Newton county that A. J.
Freeman is failure as a preacher.
Aud John S. Simmons, of the
House put his whole influence on the
right side, and there is no more useful
or influential preacher in his assOcia-
ton. He is no failure; no, not much.
And w. w. Finley, now of Texas,
once in the Mississippi Legislature,
influential, noble, pure, good and use
ful; man against whom no one ever
had word to say except touching his
fidelity to Baptist principles.
A. A. Lomax, a candidate for and
elected to, the office of Superintendent
of Education in his county; what of
him! A failure! A. A. Lomax, intel
ligent, pious, brave, with fame and
an influence as broad as the State;
the heroic defender of every good
cause, is not failure. Brother OBJ
servatory man, go to Copiah and

Declaration of Purposes.

Whereas the general condition Of our cOun-
try impcratively demands unity Of action on
the part OF the laboring classes, reformation
and economy and the dissemination Of prin-
ciplcs best calculated to encourage and foster
agricultural and mechanical pursuits, encour-
aging the toing maSses-leading them In
the road to prosperity, and providing just
and fair remuneration for labor, just eN-
change for our commodities, and the best
means of securing to the laboring classes the
greatest amount of good we hold to the
principle that all monOpolieS are dangerous to
the best interest Of our country, tending to en-
slave free people aud subvert and finally over
throw the great principles purchased by the
fathers of American liberty. We therefore
adopt the following as our declaration princi-
pies:
l. To labor for the education OF the agricul-
tural classes in the science of economical gov
ernment, in a strictly non-partisan spirit and
bring about a more perfect union of said
classes.
@ That we demand equal rights to all, and
special favOrs to none.
3. To endorse the motto: "In things es-
sential, unity; and in all things charity.
4. To develop a better state mentally, morally,
socially and financially.
s. To constantly strive to secure entire har-
mony and good will to all mankind and brother
ly love among ourselves.
6. To suppress personal, local, sectional and
national prejudices, all unhealthy rivalry and all
selfish ambition.
= The brightest jewels which it garners. are
the tears of the widows and orphans, and its
imperative commands are to visit the homes
where lacerated hearts are bleeding to asstiage
the suffering of a brother or sister bury the
dead, care for the widows and educate the or
phans to exercise charity toward all offenders;
to construe words and deeds in their most favor
able light, granting honesty of purpose and
good intentions to others and to protect the
principle. of the Farmers Alliance and indus
trial Union until death. Its laws are reason
and its equity cardinal doctrines inspire purity
OF thought and life, It's intention is 'On earth,
peace and good will to man."

Whitelaw Reid, the Republican can

would do we'll to bear this in mind
just now; also that the Tribune has

LICENSE OR NO LICENSE.

That is the Question Which VIII
Agitate West Haven and other
Towns In the State To-day.
Town elections will be held in all the
towns in the state to-day except New Ha-
ven and Bridgeport. In many of the
towns the one important question to be
settled is that of license or no license.
This is especially true of West Haven,
where the fight between the license and
anti-license factions is being waged vigor-
ously, and the town has been most thor
oughly canvassed by both sides, and each
faction is confident of winning. The anti
license people carried the town last year
by 20 majority, but in 1890 the majority in
favor of license was about 100.
The no license advocates have issued a
circular which they have had scattered
broadcast throughout the town. The cir
cular sets forth that in consequence of the
town having voted no license the exhibi-
lions of drunkenness and rowdyism at the
shore have been lessened to a marked de-
gree; that there has only been 40 arrests
for drunkenness and disorder, as against
81 of the year previous; that while it is
said that the town treasury is being de-
prived of the moneys hitherto received for
licenses, and while there is an appearance
of truth In this statement, it must be plain
to every thinking man that the legalized
liquor traffic In our town will bring with
it a burden of expense and will depreciate
property values, and that as a town we
cannot afford at any price to make any
part of Orange dumping ground for i'm
morality and rowdyism.
There will undoubtedly be hot contest
in West Haven to-day.
