Rotation is Democracy.

SAULsToN, N. C., May %.
Dear ss.Joe 4rgus''-It has been
claimed that Saulston is s'Third
Party but don't you believe it.
Saulston is all right. The Third
Partyites claim most anything: in
fact as chalmers they are a success
they even claim to be the only
original Democratic party! What
a claim. made up as these claim
ers are of the disgruntled Office
seekers of the Democratic party
and designing politicians OF the
Republican party. "4e immor-
tai gods and little fshes.' as
Cicero used to say,-only in
Latin-How, Mr.. Editor, how
can anything good like Depoc-
racy. which has its origin in
the purest patriotism - love
of country, not love OF office
come out of such a molly, rabid
conglomeration as the Third
Party? I would as soon expect
to see the Ethiopian change his
skin or the leopard his spots as
to expect good government from
such a gang.
But, Mr.. Editor, the purpose
of my addressing this communi-
c~tion to you is to ask the privi-
lege Of your columns that | may
urge upon the Board of Justices
Of Wayne county at their meet
ing next Monday the necessity of
observing that old tried and true
principles Of pristine Democracy
-"rotation IN office" We want q
change of Board of County
Commissioners. It is important
that there be a change. The
people everywhere want a
change, and the people are SIM
ply asking their rights when
they ask that the principles OF
Democracy guide the Justices
next Monday. We can afford to
call for this change, Mr. Editor,
this principle Of rotation,
without discussing the old Board
of Commissioners at all. And
let us have a Board of Demo
crats-all Democrats, Mr.. Ed
tor, and it behooves the Justices
to give us such a Board Of Com
m~issioners. Let no uncertain
ones-let none but Democrats
be elected next Monday.
VIGILANCE.

Individual IN a corner does not
himself; nor can a one school enjoy the
enthusiasm that results in the congrega-
ton of those of like mind for a common
purpose. Reports of progress, of increased
and improved work, and of success and
blessing, greatly cheer all, and keeps the
enthusiasm ag1ow which helps to main
tain the interest in the work.
60. EDUCATION. By conventions and in
stitutes the work is greatly improved and
extended, the workers are trained for SER
vice, and the teachers are better fitted to
impart a knowledge of the Word of God.
By organization the State Association
seeks to make effective a plan which pro-
vides a course for the systematic study of
the Bible in preparation for the work of
teaching the Sunday-Schoo1 lesson. Q
ST. CHARACTERIZATION. To this all else
leads, for this all is done. To bring the
lost to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ,
is to evangelize our county, our State, our
country. With organization we can better
advance education; and with education
We can best promote evangelization.

v. HOW IT Is SUPPORTED.

I. Its first and chief support is the time
and talent devoted by the voluntary ser
vices of all its officers.
2. The means freely given by these
same brethren and a number of other
Christian business men who are contribu-
tors to the SPECIAL SUBSCRIPTION, which
aims by a given number of 500, $50, SIS,
$40 and IS subscriptions to raise at least
5000 annually.
s3. The voluntary contributions of the
Sunday-Schoo1 officers, teachers and cho1-
ars of the State Oh ANNUAL OFFERING
DAY first Sunday in May, o upon the
next most convenient Sunday. 1t is sug-
gested that each person be afforded an
opportunity to make an offering of at
least five cents a year for the work. It is
hoped that the appreciation of the work
will grow until all schools enjoy a partici-
patton III the annual offering.

II. WHAT IT DOES.

I. CONVENTIONS. Aids in conauctinp
and making efficient the annual conven
ton of every county, and many township
conventions. By these conventions the
work along all lines is stimulated, neglect
ed portions of each county are revealed,
reports of progress are made, and the
workers are aroused to greater zeal and
activity.
2. NORMAL INSTITUTES. Conducts nor
NAL institutes in the various districts in
b interest of teacher-training and better
Sunday-Schoo1 work.
%. FACTS AND FIGURES. Gathers the
facts and figures for, and publishes the
only Report of all the Sunday Schools of
the State, giving the figures of each de-
nomination separately. N

there, this Report by the State Association
affords the only opportunity for each de-
nomination to have its work show before
he International and Worlds Sunday

talns the only organization in the State,
delegates from which, in common with
those of like associations in the other

sons in this State be made delegates to the
International and Worlds Sunday-Schoo1
Conventions.
g.. UNCONVENTIONAL SUNDAYSCHOOLs.
Advocates the establishment of denomi-
national Sunday Schools, and advises
union schools to become UNCONVENTIONAL
schools as soon as practicable.
7. UNCONVENTIONAL HELP. By every
means III It's power, seeks to stimulate the
work for the Master by all denominations;
and it is but the simple truth that the de-
n~o1ninaticns having b largest number
of persons interested in this cooperative
endeavor are doing the most successful
church work.
III. WHAT IT DOES NOT.
I. Exercises no authority.
2. Levies no taxes or assessments.
3. Formu1ates no creed.
q. Organizes no Sunday Schools leaves
this for the workers of the various denomi-
nations in each locality to determine upon
and do.
5. Publishes no lesson literature for
sale, and leaves all exposition of Scripture
to the denominations. .
60 Does not advocate union Sunday
Schools, and favors them only where, and
SO long as, there cannot be denomina-
tional schools.
7. Antagonizes no denomination in any
way whatever. q
s.. Never knowingly allows any a~ssocia-
ton meeting or convention to interfere
or conflict with any church service or
other UNCONVENTIONAL gathering of any
kind.
90. Does not assume that its sAnnua1
Statistical Report of the Sunday Schools
of the State is a record of the Associa-
tons work. It is a report of the work
being done by all the denominations, and
the Association complies aud publishes it
for the benefit of them all.

VII. co-opERAr1oN-Nor un1ea.


The State Sunday-Schoo1 Association
makes no plea for union of schools or
churches O. creeds. It desires, particu-
larly in its active ranks, the strongest
champions of their respective creeds in
the various evangelical denominations.
And it simply seeks to have these sit down
in council together for a fair look at the
field as it actually is; to devise ways to
carry the gospel to the neglected districts;
to reach the million unsaved souls, particu-
larly the youth of the State; to urge each
other to cooperate in holding these coun-
ellis or conventions in the interest of the
great work, and to encourage all to go
back to their own denominations, and ac-
cording to such ways as are approved by
their respective churches; to reach out a
longer and stronger arm, until the fields
actually cultivated shall touch each other,
and there shall not lie between a emo
man's land" where immortal souls are
dying without Christ.

VIII. SOME OBJECTIONS ANSWERED

I. "My hands are too full" to engage in
the work, say some Pastors. It is not
only the object, but is the result of the
movement, to develop workers to aid in
church and Sunday School, that Dur busy
Pastors may not be so over-burdened.
The kindly counsel and approval and di-
r~ection, rather than work, is what the
movement looks to the Pastor for.
?. "The denominations ought to do the
work" Yes, there are nearly a half mil
lion of the youth alone of this State still
outside of the Sunday School; and this
movement is to keep us all aroused to do
more to reach them. We are the denoni-
nations. So long as there is an unsaved
soul there is room for added effort in
Christ's name. D

a War Story.

1.-THE closest shave | ever heard Of"
remarked G.. L. Merton, an eX-army
officer, twas one witnessed during
the late war. 1t was during the heat
of one of the most fearful conflicts
we had. Shot and shells were flying
around us like hail and it was almost
certain death for n man 90 expose his
body from behind the Notifications
where we were stationed. The enemy
was gaining upon us and IL became
evident that unless we received re-
endorsements the day would be lost.
Our commanding officer called for a
volunteer to ride about seven miles TO
where another part Of our regiment
was stationed to notify them of our
condition.
1.-THE errand was q most perilous
one, but young private stepped from
the ranks and said he would take the
risk. He accordingly started out,
mounted on the generals horse. He
had scarcely proceeded n dozen yards
when twenty-four pound shell
struck the horse fairly in the chest.
The animal stood rigid for moment
and then disappeared. The she'll had
exploded in the horse and blown il
into a thousand fragments. The most
remarkable thing about IL was that
the soldier was not hurt i'm the least.
He was merely blown into the air and
dreRched with blood, coming out with
only n few scratches"
