a colossal blunder, viewed from all pos.

of the Blanket Ballot bill before that
measure had been transmitted by the
Legislature to the governor. The
premature veto was signed BY Roswell
P. Flower, but everybody accredits the

growing over his nervousness in killing
legislative measure of this Importance
before he had seen it officially, even by
proxy. "But inasmuch as the veto was

TAKES UP THE CUOGEL.
LIder McGnrvey Bitterly Denounces

LEXINGTON, Ky, Aug. Colder J.
W. McGarvey, an eminent instructor on
theological subjects in the Bible college
of Kentucky university and leader in
the Christian church of the South, has
again taken up the cudgel against Col.
Breckenridge. using Evangelist Barnes's
sermon Of Sunday night as his text.
Elder McGarvey is out i'm a letter today
denouncing Barnes as a religious m,Gnte-
bank, who mas wandered from one
church to another during his remark
ably checker5d career in and ont Of the
pulpit. lie holds up Barnes as - man
who has at various times pretended to
have received sanctiiication. the power
TO heal by anointment and the power to
absOlve the sins of those cOnfessing to
him. After these humbugs were played
out, Evangelist Barnes pretended that
the Lord watched over him, even 10
the extent of keeping his organ in tune
while it was being jolted over mountain
roads from one meeting to another. and
as an evidence of his faith he threw
away his spectacles and trusted TO the
Lord TO see without them. Mr. McG1r-
vey adds: This experiment did not
last long. He proclaimed that he then
had faith enough to raise the dead. At
ter some years Of very noted career in
Kentucky he went TO india, and while
there he had a revelation from the
Lord to the effect that the English peO-
pie are the twelve lost tribes of Israel
and that Queen Victoria is the head of
the true church. He Immediately OBJ
tanned membership in the episcopal
church, but that church, like the presby-
terrain, refused to indorse his haresles
by putting him into the ministry" FL
der McGarvey follows Mr.. Barnes IN his
strange career after returning from In
dia. For years he exercised remarkable
influence in Kentucky, but his glory has
departed and he can no longer obtain
and head the vast audiences that once
assembled to hear him"
Several years ago he left there to
make his home on small island oft the
coast Of Florida. The caustic letter con-
cludes with a discussion of biblical par
allels upon which Evangelist Barnes and
others have attempted to excuse Col.
Breckinrdge's shortcomings, the clos
ing paragraph being as follows: Let it
be known, once and forever. that there
is nothing in Gods holy book to eXtenu-
ate the awful crimes proven against
breckenridge, and nothing to furnish an
excuse to good people for seeking to re-
elect him."
