GOD IN THE UNIVERSE,

The day is Thine, the night also is
Thine: Thou hast prepared the light and
the sun. Thou hast set all the borders of
the earth: Thou hast made summer and
winter. l-PsalmS 74:l6-17.
Thou art, o God, the life and light
Of all this wOndrous world we see
Its glow 10y day, its smile by night
Are but reflections caught from Thee
Where'er We turn, Thy glOries shine,
And all things fair and bright are Thine.
When day, with farewell beam delays
Among the opening clouds of even,
And we can almost think we gaze
Through golden vistas into Heaven;
Those hues that make the suns decline,
So soft, 80 radient, Lord are thine.
When night, with wings of stormy gloom,
OvershadOws all the earth and skies,
Like some dark, beauteOus bird, whose
plume
Is sparkling with unnumbered eyes,
That sacred gloom, those fires divine,
So grand, so countless, Lord, are Thine.
When youthful spring around us breathes
Thy spirit warns her fragrant sigh.
And every flower the summer wreathes
Is born beneath that kinGling eye,
Where'er we turn, Thy glories shine
And all things fair and bright are
Thine

IN THE SOUTH.
What an Eminent Methodist
Orator Says.
Atlanta Constitution I

There is no closer observer of matters
of all kinds than Rev. DR.. H: c..
Morrison who is secretary OF missions
for the Methodist church, South.
There is no man in the South for
whom the people who know him have
a higher OR more sincere regard, and
there is no man in the South who
more thoroughly deserves the regard
of the people. DR.. Morrison, while
his home is here in Atlanta is con-
slant traveller, his territory covering all
of the Southern States from Virginia
to Missouri and from Texas to Florida.
DR.. Morrison was warm advocate
of President Cleveland. He is one of
the many through the South who
believed that he was a representative
of all that Democracy means.
But he has changed his mind. "I
voted for Mr.. Cleveland BEFORE" said
he in talking Yesterday, " but if | am
forgiven for that act certainly will
never do SC again"
"The dissatisfaction with the admin
istration, and that means the dissatis
faction with President Cleveland, :"
continued DR.. Morrison, d" is almost
universal throughout the South and
West. l have heard Cleveland men,
in an effort to uphold the administra-
ton, claim that only in Georgia is
there this feeling but let me tell you,
they never have made greater
mistake in their lives. In the last few
months l have been in no less than
twelve States, and during that time I
have talked with practically everybody
with whom have met. The senti-
ment is overwhelming. The people
are deeply and bitterly disappointed
with the present administration. l
have heard it in West Virginia and
Virginia, in Missouri, in Texas, in
Louisiana, in Tennessee and other
States in the South just as have heard
it here in Georgia. What the resul,
will be of course nobody can say, bu,
it looks now as if he had succeeded in
absolutely wrecklng the Democratic
party. Men who, several months ago
upheld the administration in every
thing it did, are the strongest in its
denunciation to-day. The people who
criticise him most strongly are not
only the people who opposed Mr.
Cleveland, as many would like tc
make it appear, but the men who wer'
strongest for him are now among those
who are his severest critics. And how
could it be otherwise? We were lee
to believe that he represented every
thing that Democracy meant to US
We have learned at great cost tha
there is absolutely no difference
between his so-called Democracy anc
the Republicanism which we have beer
fighting SO many years. 1t is prett.
bitter experience for the people of tn
South to have to undergo. They fee
it, and they don't hesitate to say so
1t is not exaggeration to say that neve
before has there been SO widespread
dissatisfaction with any ADMINISTRATION
by the people who put it in power
Yes" continued the doctor, {" tn
people believe that they have bee1
deceived, and they don't hesitate t
saw sO."

So the members of the House are
to be ined $50 for each failure or re-
susal to vote, ard they are not to get
pay for days they are absent without
leave. II all Of this money should be
collected and returned to the treasury,
these and the income tax will
guarantee free trade in few years
should absenieeism thrive as it has in
the las, few years. Let that be done,
and when the roll is called every
morning, let a roster of those who fail
to respond be lodged with the official
who makes out the monthly pay roll ;
it will help the treasury, and 1t will
help the members, but if that would
not do let a certified copy of the
number of days member was absent
be sent to his constituents on the eve
OF each congressional convention and
that would do the work.-Lumbertor

MURDER AND ITS CAUSE.

Three friends drunk; one of them
uses insulting words, and the other
two fall upon him and numbering him
show a fiendishness that is sickening,
revolving. This was the scene last
Saturday night, when Philip Williams
and Sylvanus Marrow killed William
Causby. Williams and Marrow are
both peaceable, industrious men when
sober but with brains maddened by
whiskey they sent a companion into
the next world, hot with fumes of
whiskey and vile oaths, and at the
same time they eternally wrecked their
own lives. This is horrible, and makes
one realize with intenseness tho con-
tinual danger that besets the man who
indulges in stimulants.
No man who drinks can escape the
possibility that under some circum-
stances he may commit deed of this
kind. This is hackneyed proposition,
yet, considering the crime mentioned
and thousands of others Of similar
nature, it embodies truth and is pro-
phetic of a terrible calamity that may
wreck the life of any man. The person
who can drink whiskey and retain
reason is an exception to an universal
rule. The natural tendency is to make
him throw prudence and human feeling
to the winds at times and sink to a level
lower than a brute. One likes to be
liberal and broad-minded and to say
there is no harm in taking drink OF
whiskey, yet when it is considered
Philip Williams quit his work intend
ing to take one drink and ended by
drinking enough to cause him to assist
in the killing Of Causby, this sort OF
philosophy seems weak and ineffective
Disclaiming any desire to preach a
sermon on prohibition, the writer does
firmly believe that the minute a man
commences to drink he introduces into
his life an element that continually
menaces his ambition and all the noble
purposes ofhis life.-Morganton Herald

than paper with a large circulation,
reaching beyond the trade limits of
the dealers at the point Of publica-
ton.
A REASONABLE ILLUSTRATION.
Take metropolitan daily that has,
say, several hundred circulation in
this pace. Would it not pay any dry
goods dealer or jeweler of the big city
better were that several hundred
circulated in and near the point of
publication? That is not a conun-
drum its answer is self-evidenet, and
is carried on the very face of the
proposition. Now, take an article
that is Of more or less general sale,
and is also advertised here does the
advertisement of that article in the
several hundred copies of the metrop-
olltan paper, circulating here, benefit
the advertiser any or one-tenth as
much as it would were those copies
taken in the home territory?
Experience is usually the correct
exponent of true theory, and the
experience that advertising in ones
home paper is the cheapest and best
way to secure his patronage has pro-
duced the theory of advertisers that
higher prices pro rata for local circula-
ton are cheaper than lower prices pro
rata for larger circulation that goes
beyond the territory of the home
dealers.
The country weekly with 500 circu-
lation covers its territory more
thoroughly and is proportionately far
more valuable advertising medium
than the metropolitan daily or the
great magazine, each with many thous-
ands of general extra territorial circu-
lation.
The metropolitan dailies may
enunciate the proper public policies,
but it is the country weeklies that
deliver the true political gospel to the
vast voting masses. Eminent political
leaders may give the note of the
campaign, but it is the country district
workers that carry the election.
Mammoth circulations may spread
broadcast the fame of some article,
but it is the home paper that is read
every day of every week that event
ually and surely percolates into the
unheeding minds of its readers the
merits of that article. A column
report of our Senator's speech in 3oo,-
900 copies OF the New York Wo1la
would not do him as much good as a
half column of it in the paper OF
SilIdI1<ot .~..a.~.a~.. -s-s- o.
The issue has been joined, and
shrewd advertisers arc deciding in
favor of the papers that have local
circulation in city, town, and remote
country village, especially in such
Dapers as lie in their trade territory.
