PERSO NALS

Rev. J. H, Moran, of Frankfort,
has been quite sick for three
months, and the possibility of his

grave doubt. Elder Moran has
done great work there and is an
honorable minister. May the
Lord spare him.
Kew. J. r. Richardson, of
Omaha, IS touring the state, as an
evangelist and revivalist. He is

What reason can anyone assign
tor not making the BAPTIST HEAD
LIGHT, religious newspaper
worthy Of the name? true ex-
ponent Of Baptist doctrines, and
a literary sheet; pure III tones,
rich in thought, and varied in pro
duction. "A medium through
which Negro talent can speak t.
the world; and thereby demon
strate the tact that we have a few
men connected with the denomi-
nation who ia Bible knowledge,
are the equal Of any theologlan of
whatever cast, or nationality.
There are those Of our denomina-
ton who are profound thinkers;
fluent writer's, and polished ora
tors; but they are not known to
the literary world, because of the |
fact that we have no available
avenue through which they can
make themselves felt. The BAP-
list HEADLIGHT has taken this
advanced step, and with this adj
vanced step, and with the proper
support from the denomination,
it can be made attractive, enter
tanning and instructive For thus
we will be able to throw open its
columns and invite contributions
from the graceful pens of our
most efficient writer's, and public
benefactors. thereby enhancing
the value Of the paper and at the
same time doing much to bring
OUT men and women Of ability to
the front rank in the literary cir

: relg1ous reform, and an educat
ing enterprise to our people il
every way available, tending to-
ward this social, political and in.
dustrlal elevation.
That there lieth before US 2
broad field for such literary work
can not for one moment be cues
toned. The necessity for great
and glorious moral reform AMONG
our people, is more clearly mani
tested before our eyes each dav Of
our lives. That something must
pc done to ameliorate the cond1-
ton OF our people and STAY the
tide OF the crushing evils that now
threaten us on every side, is claim
ing the prayeIful consideration Of
our people more and more everv
day.
What can be done is the very
dlttlcult and momentous problem
10 be solved. The three great po-
tent powers within our GRASP
namely: the pulpit, the teachers
OF our public schools and COLLEGES
the press Of the state and that Of
the nation, and professional men,
must concentrate their influence;
and put in operation their strong
est efforts to solve this great ques
ton.

III downright earnestness, having
no selfish purpose in view; no sci,

ready to blend our entire influ-
7nce in advocacy Of these much
needed reforms; if the Baptists
ot the state will only muster suhi
;lent ambition and sympathy for ,
he paper as to give it their sup $
bort. We have made several t
trong and fruitless appeals to the
5aptlsts Of the state to rally to

lclt their liberallties, or to \
Waken the desired and necessary s

We have endeavored to put the .
erms Of subscription within the
each Of every one; SO that sub
cribers would be compelled to G
ssume no risk whatever. We a
ave taken all responsibilities Il
pom ourselves, and left the sub {
crlbers free, and yet we are not n
eceiving any support, materially 2
oeaking, for the paper. W
We have sent the paper regu- d
rly to a number of subscribers
II five months, and have not re-
eived from them one cent to paw ~

From he point OF view OF the student

may well be divided into those which
have and those which have not the use OF
the horse. says Prof, y. :. smaller, in
Scribner'>
Although there are half a score Of other
animals which have done much for man,
which have indeed stamped themselves
upon his history. no other creation has
been so iu-eparably associated With the
great triumphs of our kind, whether won
on the battlefield or in the arts Of peace
80 far s. material comfort. or even
wealth. i concerned. we Of the northern
realms and present age could. perhaps.
better spare the horse from our present
life than either sheep or horned cattle;
but without this creature it i certain
that our civilization would never have
developed in anything like its present
form.
Lacking the help which the horse gives,
il is almost certain that, even now, it
could not be maintained. 1t requires but
a glance at the mec hanism Of our life to
see how completely We rely upon the
strength, speed and docility OF this ami
