farmers are making preparation to plant a

sowing turnip seed.
The people are trying to get themselves
in good shape for picnics, barbecues and
campaign meetings, for politics is beginning
TO boil pretty briskly For several weeks
it was only szziug like water in steam
boiler when i, is first fired, but now it is
fnirly bubtliug. Several are making up
their tickets even before they hear the eau
didates speak. This shows that while they
like to hear candidates define themselves,
that they do not so altogether by what they
hear. They are getting anxious for the
State campaign meeting on the 3lst.
1t seems that quite number Of copies of
the Piedmont Headlight are being sent gratis
to citizens around here, and understand
that they are being sent by Mr.. Wilson,
candidate for Congress. Evidently, he
wishes more people to know what course the

MIR. Wilsen has widely commanded the best
regards and respect of the people in this
section, but if he goes to Congress on the
excursions he is allowing his paper TO run
for the purpose of getting him there, he will
not have the general admiration for his
course that has been accorded him hereto
fore.
The protracfe meeting at the Baptist
church closed last Friday night. The con-
gregations were not large, sometimes on ac-
count of the bad weather, but largely, il
seems due to n lack of interest OH the part

sions to the church, but all credit is due the
pastor, Rev. Mr.. Bell, who worked uniir-
ingly and did all he could, and it is gener.

July 24.-Thc farmers have been very
jubiant over the fine prospects of the crops
but since the continual fall Of the hard rains
which have not ceased for the past week oi
ten days they are feeling blue aud fear il
the rains continue the now promising cotton
crop will be cut off by the rust. The corn
crop in thus section is he finest we have had
for years. If not destroyed through the
wise providence of God, the farmers will
not buy any corn another year. Their cribs
will be full and overlooking.
Rev. J. A. Bell, Baptist pastor from
Greenvile, S. c., began protracted meet
ing at the Carlisle Academy last Sunday
His sermons are fine and impressive. Not

Preamble aud Resolutions
Adopted by Mount Tabor Alliance No. 306,
at a call meeting July 20, 1894, upon the
death Of J. II. SAVAGE.

Adopted by Mount Tabor Alliance No. 3O6,
at a call meeting July 20, 1894, upon the
death Of J. IL. SAVAGE.
At the organization of Mount Tabor Al
lance in 1890 Bro. J. IL. Savage was elected
President, and his zeal for The order ami the
sympathy for his fellow citizens gained the
confidence of all the brethren, and he was
held in that position until his health gave
way, and on the 9th day of July God called
his spirit up higher, to leave n wife and s
children and all that know him 10 mourn
his departure, tut we have that sweet u.s.
surance that our loss is his eternal gain.
He joined the Presbyterian church when
he was young, and he served as ruling
e,der and superintendent of the Sunday
School in his church, dischargng every
duty imposed upon him, to the satisfaction
of his brethren and friends, with always an
eye single TO the glory of God. He was
wise leader. n safe counselor, n true citizen
and model christian gentlemen. 1t is
therefore
Resolred. That this Alliance bow with
humble submission to the will Of God, while
we deeply mourn the loss of our brother we
do feel thankful to God for the life he has
lived among us.
End. That we tender our heartfelt sym
rathies and prayers to the bcrcaved wife
and children, aud admonish his sons to
initiate the Chrst-like example that their
father set before them, and trust that the
loss they have sustained will work out for
their eternal good.
3rl. That n page iu our minute book be
inscribed to his memory, and that these res.
olutions be spread on the minute book Of
this Alliance and copy be sent to the FAM
lily and that they be published in The UNION
TIMES.

THE critical time of the eastern
war has come at last. The ques-
ton whether China and Japan are
to be allowed to settle their differ
ences between themselves without
intervention by other nations is
about to be decided. Russia. If one
may Judge from the attitude of
Russian newspapers. is determined
to have something to say about the
matter, and for some reason is
particularly anxious to secure the
cooperation of Great Britain. AS
Britain has no cause of complaint
against either nation she does not
propose to interfere, but the Rus
sian journals are ehdeavOring tt
hulldoze her by threatening to aid
Germany and France in all theil
colonial controversies with Britain
if she will not act with Russia now
This threat is backed up by a re-
port that Russia, France and Ger.
many have already protested
against the terms of the treaty.
Whether they are prepared to en-
force that protest, or not, remains
to be seen.

DOGS ARE EVERYBODY.

"a few days since, we read in the

DR.. Dollison has about as much
to do with the OHIO DEMOCRAT as
Colonel Rempel has to do with the

The statehood convention which
is in session at Salt Lake City to
frame a constitution for Utah, con-
tains n large majority Of Mormons.
The announcement of this fact
seems to haye created some dis
quietude among those who have
always been accustomed to regard
the MOrmons with dread and aver
sion. But since polygamy has been
eliminated from the Mormon
theory and practice, there remains
nothing that n land of'religiOus
freedom like ours can properly in
terfere with. There is no sound
reason for experimenting a union
Of church and state in Utah. and
very little reason for supposing
that the MOrmons can much long
er maintain their effective majority
of the total population. The growth
of the s0called "Gentile" element
has been formidable In recent
years, and 1t will doubtless he yet
more rapid in the future; while, on
the other hand, there Is no ground
for the opinion that Mormonisn
will be the one creed of the des-
cendants of Mormon pioneers.
Under state institutions, Utah will
tend to become assiinilated with
the general life of the country. 1t
will lose It's peculiar Mormon char
acteristic, and the church Of the
Latter Day Saints will itself tend
to become more like other churches
in creed, in forms, and In methods
MOrmOnism was II strange phase
of western life which In its very
nature was destined to be transient
| With the admission of Utah as d
state. the transition from peculiar
to normal conditions will be much
accelerated. For long time Utnf
was Il singular anomaly. 1t was
absolutely ruled by the leaders o
the Mormon church, under circum
stances which were wholly out o
accord with the constitution ant
laws of the United States. Tha
period has happily passed ava.
forever.-FrOm "7Ne Progress O

fetal communication to each of the
other Governors of the United
States:
Permit me to call the attention
of tie schools, patriotic societies
and citizens of your state to Flag
Day, June IA, the llsth anniversary
Of our flags adoption by. Congress-
The national hymn, "Star Spang-
led Banner" is always sung at
Flag Day exercises which are now
being generally held by the schools,
but few yield its author the rever-
ence his memory deserves.
No one has ever written any
thing that has done more to awak-
en- true patriotism; and yet the
ashes of Francis Scott Key have
lain for many years unhOnOred by
his countrymen beneath the soil Of
his native country in the cemetery
Of Frederick City, Maryland.

Ing to you the work and object Of

was organized and incorporated
last year Cor the purpose Of collect

redeem the nation from the dis
grace Of over half a century Of un.
grai eful neglect.
They have already raised about
$4,000 from their own town, but
every American who is proud of
our beautiful flag and its position
among nations should have share
In erecting this monument.
Please urge the children to give
their pennies and the citizens their
larger coins on Flag Day or before.
