The Session Ended.


Dallas, Tex, May 15-The South
ern Baptist convention adopted a re-
port to-day looking to enlarge from.
tier mission operations, including
the mountain regions of North Car
DINA, Tennessee, Georgia and Ala
bama. The report of the commit
tee on contributions showed that
contributions are liberal, but ], 2SO,
600 members gave nothing to mis-
siOns. The committee recommend
that the home and foreign boards
be instructed to each appoint COM
mittee, who shall be directed to
confer with the several State boards
with view of securing in each
State some plan by which every
member of every church shall be
reached and induced to give some
thing. Adopted. A. M. Sims, of
Raleigh, n. c., moved that COM
mittee consisting of one from each
State be appointed to consider the
advisability of dividing the South
ern Baptist Convention into three
districts, and, if such division is de-
sirable, to report the methods and
boundaries of such divisions to the
next Southern Baptist Convention.
Not concurred in.
Rev. NJ. M. Davis, pastor of the
Central Christian church of Dallas,
was introduced, and read a letter
from the standing committe on
Christian Union, appointed by the
General Convention of the Dici piles
of Christ. The letter expressed an
acceptance of the invitation of for
mer Baptist convention inviting
ether denominations to a conference
on the difference in doctrine. Re-
ferred to special committee.
A telegram from the mayor of
Augusta was read inviting the con-
vention to meet in Augusta next

SHOULD the government coin sill
yer at the ratio of Is to /, it would
be nothing less than, at present price
of silver bullion, to allow the silver
mine owners 81 for about AZ cents
worth of silver. If it is just for
the government TO allow the own
ers of silver mines twice as much as
is the real value of their bullion in
England, then it should also furnish
a market for the cotton growers
that would double the price of the
Liverpool cotton quotations. There
can be no justice in allowing the
owners of silver mines double what
their bullion is worth in England,
and not offering the same protection
to the cotton planters. IT'S true
that gold is coined free, but our
gold dollar will purchase a dollars
worth of goods in any of the mar
kets, whereas our silver dollar will
only do so within the boundaries of
the United States. The Democrat
ic platform declares for the free
coinage of silver when the purchas-
ing power of both gold and silver is
equal in the "markets." AS the
purchasing power of the two metals
is not equal in the "markets" it is
an insoluble mystery how the plat
form can be so construed as to de-
clare in favor of the free coinage of
silver dollars at the ratio of 16 to l.
The value of silver bullion fuctu-
ates daily in the markets, therefore
the impOssibility of the United
States government being able to
agree upon any ratio that would
guarantee the equal purchasing pow
er of the two metals in the ''mar-
kets" before an international agree
ment is entered into, and until such
an agreement, silver will remain a
domestic currency.

time IN The history Of the govern
fnent. But until a tariff is passed
money will not flow through the
channels of trade to the extent that
it otherwise would, and values will
continue In an unsettled state. Man
ufacturers in the different branches
of industry, will be unable to ealcu-
late with any degree of accuracy as
TO profits ON their wares and mer-
chandise before the passage of the
tariff bill, hence are not employing
as many hands as they would if that
question was settled. But the delay in
passing reformatOry measure which
affects, disadvantageously, the cOun-
try at large is the continued enforce
ment of the Mckinley law. Since
its adoption revenues from foreign
governments have been curtailed and
much of the tax that was collected
from that source is now, because of
the prohibitive tax levied against
importers being paid to the home
manufactures, thus adding annually
millions to their wealth, which is
paid by the people of the United
States. Although, under Republi-
can rule, the rate of tax was increas-
ed, the government revenue has
been decreased, and the profits of
the home manufacturers correspond
ingly added to. Democratic MEM
bers of the United States senate are
responsible to a great extent for
not rendering obsolete, ere this, the
law that has been so injurious to
the people. They should redeem
pledges made.

FAITHFUL TO THE PEOPLE

The readers of the Bulletin know
that we have always stood by the
present administration, because it is
democratic, and because we believe
it is right, Just and fair. Especially
have we supported Mr.. Cleveland's
financial views. In ur.opinion he
is advocating a policy beneficial to
all the people of all the states alike.
He Las been criticised, and those
who have supported him have been
criticised, but according TO our idea
this criticism is unjust. Mr.. Cleve-
land stands to-day where he has al
ways stOOd-upOn the democratic
platform. That platform did not
declare for free, unlimited and indie
pendent coinage of silver and he
who attempts to create that impress
sion misrepresents facts. The dem
ocratic platform did declare for the
use of both gold and silver as the
standard money of the country with
out discriminating against either
metal, but held that the dollar unit
of both metals must be of equal, in
trinsic and exchangeable value at all
times and in every market. Mr..
Cleveland is determined to carry out
that platform to the letter. He is
not opposed to the use of silver as
a money metal, an impression some
have attempted to create, but so long
as he is at the head of affairs, he in
tends that the parity of the metals
(both gold and silver shall be pre-
served. Disappointed politicians
may for a while mislead a depressed,
but well-meaning and honest people,
whose condition is attributable to
protective tariff, but up

India Hawkins.

The following notice of Judge
Hawkins, a gentleman we'll known
and highly esteemed in Hardemar
county, is taken from the Memphi:
Commercial:
Hon. Albert G. Hawkins, lay del
egate from the Memphis conference
to the general conference of the
Methodist Episcopal church, South,
now in session in this city, resides
in Huntingdon, Tenn. This is his
second attendance as a delegate, he
having been in Nashville in 1882.
For twenty-five year she has been a
delegate to many of the sessions OF
the annual conference. He is super
intendant of the Methodist Sunday
school at Huntingdon, and has so
served, with the exception of few
years, ever since the school was or
ganized. He was converted and
Joined the Methodist church, South,
while a boy, and his life has been
spent as an active member of that
church. He comes of a Methodist
family, being nephew of DR.. T. n.
Ralston, the author of elements of
Divinity" and a brother of Rev. S.
J. Hawkins deceased, formerly one
of the editors of the Texas Christian
Advocate. He is also a brother of
Alvin Hawkins, ex-governor of Ten
.nessee. In 1875 he was elected SEN
ator to represent the counties of Car
roll and Gibson in the Tennessee leg
islature, but declined a reelection.
In 1880, as the Democratic presi-
Dental elector, he made a political
canvass of the Eighth congressional
district. For the past eight years
he has been chancellor of the Ninth
Chancery division of Tennessee, hav-
ing been elected without an Oppo-
nent. He is now a candidate for re-
election, and again has no one oppo-
sing him. In his early life he enlist
ed in Forests cavalry and served
creditably until the surrender. In
the hard-tOught campaigns under
brave Forrest, Judge Hawkins was
twice wounded. He is happily
married and his wife is an efficient
helper in all his church work. They
have three children. The oldest
boy, Price, is following in his fa-
theirs footsteps, and studying law
at the Vanderbilt University. Chan
cellOr Hawkins has a kindly, ruddy
countenanOe, a portly figure, with
hair of silver gray, and is an able,
earnest and impressive speaker. He
is a popular man, both in affairs of
church and State, and best of all,
his popularity is secured with no
sacrifice of those Christian virtues
which grace his life.
