Grace Before OIent.

at is rather pity" says the Philadel-
phia Times, that the good, old fashioned
custom of saying grace is going out of
vogue" Our contemporary accounts for
the decadence of the good old custom by
saying that in these days of rush and
worry, men have no time to give to the
customs and courtesies of former DAYS.
when the struggle for existence or for
riches was not so fierce. The business man
of the period takes ten minutes for his
dinner and those minutes he spends i'm
boiling food. Those who dine with him
conform to his practices. and they cannot
afford to waste one minute of the ten
in Saying grace"
The Times may, and probably does, de-
scribe accurately the trend of events in
it's section of the country. But we do not
think the people of the southern states
have given up the custom of grace before
meat, or that they are likely to do so. In
this section we are not in a perpetual rush,
we are sticklers for decorum, and we be-
lieve a great deal in following, in domes-
tic affairs especially, in the footsteps of
our fathers, who followed their fathers.
Thus, aside from the religious aspect of
the matter, we have grace before meat as
a matter of form that has been sanctioned
by usage by our fathers and grand
fathers, and great grandfathers, and so
on back as long as one might care to
trace it. 1t is not uncommon in the south
to see the head of the house, having no
pretentions TO religion, bow his head at
table and ask the blessing Of the Giver of
all good and perfect gifts upon the food set
forth. Among processed Christians-and
the south is full OF them-the probabilities
are that the custom of Saying grace" is

The Griffin Convention.

The frantic efforts that are being made
by the silver organs to set delegates from
the different counties of this state for
the silver convention called to meet at
Griffin on July IS is rather amusing.
There ought not to be any great trouble in
getting delegates. There are a great
many populists in this state. They polled
a pretty big vote at the last state cleo
ton. Their platform calls for the free
!. The platform of no other party does.
No doubt the populsts will furnish
enough delegates to make a big conven-
ton. They ought to, unless they have
doubts as to the wisdom of policy that
would give this country a debased cur
rency.
But we do not see that democrats should
convention. Doubtless there will be some
democrats there. The time will come
however. when those who go will wish
they had remained away.
"Agrarianism, communism. popullsm,
fatism." said Mr.. Carlisle in one of his
recent sound money speeches in Ken
lucky, "have no place in the democratic
creed and cannot be incorporated into
it. They all have their origin in the
same poisonous political atmosphere, and
in the end they would all produce the
same fatal results upon the republican
Institutions under which we live They
are not indigenous to our SOIL they are
the products of monarchial and arbitra-
ry systems of government. and have been
imported from the centers of metaphysi-
cal and impractical politics in continental
Europe. A free and prosperous country
can never be the permanent home of
| these wild and revolutionary theories.
and any political party that gives them
.countenance or encouragement will per-
ish with them and ought to perish with
them"
Let the populsts go to Griffin and in
dorse the silver plank of their national
platform. There is no good reason, how
! ever, why democrats should attend the
convention to approve an avowed doctrine
I of the populists.
