An Interview with the Hon. j.
ETnnSIRV.

NJ. HcnSIcy'
We had yesterday the pleasure of
an interview with the Hon. j. M.
Hensley and are ina positiontoplace
before our readers the substance of
our conversation with the Senator.
Asked how the prospects were
for success in his candidature for
the Presidency of the Senate, Mr..
Hensley said that from the result
of inquiries among his friends and
those whom he regarded as well
informed on the subject he consid-
cred his prospects of securing the
nomination very favorable and en-
couraging,
He said he could narrow the op-
position he might expect to en-
counter down to four names, those
of Hon. e G. Young, of Buchan-
non; Hon. Stuart f. Reed, of
Clarksburg; Hon. j, w. Patton, of
Charleston, and Hon. N. B. Whit
taker, of Wheeling, OF these gen
tlemen he regarded Mr.. Patton as
his most formidable rival. With
regard to Mr.. Whitaker, the Sen
ator said that gentleman had given
him to understand that he would
not be candidate for the position,
and would give him the benefit of
l., n, On1
Asked if he had any Legislative
reforms in contemplation which he
would carry into effect upon cleo
ton to office, Mr.. Hensley replied
that it was rather premature yet to
answer such question, and he did
not care to commit himself upon
that subject just at present. Never
theless he would say that one re-
form he would endeavor to have eff
fected would be directed to having
tho compulsory education bill which
he had introduced two years ago
pressed forward towards passage
into law as eXpeditiously as posi-
BILE. He would also seek to make
changes in respect to the collection
of taxes. He would make the
Sheriff ex-oficio treasurer, and
have taxes paid at the Court House
semi-annually. Mr.. Hensley added
that he was averse to the issuance
of passes by railroad companies to
officers and people connected with
the State administration, and he
would advocate legislation against
such practice.
Reference being made to the
progress and development of the
oil fields, Mr.. Hensley was guarded.
He had every reason to be en-
couraged with the results so far
attained, but it was in contempla-
ton to seek deeper sand, probably
in the vicinity of Hartford. We
may add that Senator Hensley and
Col. Spilman have done much to
develop the oil territory of this
county, in fact they have done
more in that direction than any
other two mon in the county,
spending large sums to accomplish
what has been done, in bringing
it to its present encouraging con-
dition.

thing Else at Standstill.
The revival meeting now being
conducted at the South blackberry
Street Methodist church by Rev.
Selle has drawn the crowd this
week, and social matters, as we'll
as gatherings of any other kind,
have been at stanstill, everybody
turning out to the revival. The
meeting so far has been very sue
cessful, seekers at the altar being
numerous every night. The audi
ence has been very enthusiastic
one, and some genuine old time
Methodist shouting" has been
done. One reason given why the
meeting has proved such success
is the fact that Rev. Selle had just
closed two weeks revival meet
ing at the Trinity M. E. church,
and as number of the hill Iesi-
dents had been in attendance there
and became interested and enthu-
siastic in the meeting they began
work so earnestly at the starting
Of the present revival that every
one was fired with enthusiasm and
energy and went right into the
meeting for work. 1t will last an
other week longer, and during this
time there will no doubt be a num-
Der of conversions. No services
were conducted last night.

Pine Street church held it's regular

Tuesday evening. The devotional

many would not have shrunl from the
thought of motherhood at allg How
many refused its burdens?
There is not an intelligent physician,
psychologist, humanitarian, social sci
enlist, nurse or teacher who will not
tell you that there is not an act of
your life during the whole period of
that young child's unborn life that is
not moulded and formed by the temper
of your mind, feeling of your heart,
throb of your love or your hate, that
does not stamp itself more or less dis
tinctiy upon that young embryonic
substance of your own flesh. Dur
ing all these months there is being car
ried on silently, unobserved, unde-
structibly in the creative womb Of
mind and matter that which shall take
all its afterward of form from the ere
alive power with which your thought,
your purpose, your love or your hate
your passion or your prayer shall in
form it. Does not this cry out for
special preparation?
How many unwilling wives are there
in this congregation? Not many, for
in this free land it is not the fashion
to sell the young and innocent girls
to the highest bidders, although it is
too true that on account Of faulty
training too little intelligent choice
is at their command. Can this be
said as to hefhotherhood? Were the
question to be asked of the mothers
of the Light congregation, it might be
answered differently. The right Of
the wife to determine the conditions
and times of her motherhood is not
recognize in the laws of this broad
and free land, and it is high time that
this law was so changed as to do JUS
tice to the women upon whom not alone
the pains of maternity are to come,
but who must stamp that substance
of her own flesh and blood and bones
and mind and soul with whatever i'm
press it is indelibly to receive.
Wifehood is small thing to consid-
err, compared to motherhood. The
husband is already on hand. He has
his habits more or less fixed and the
influence upon him that the wife will
exert is trivial, compared to the form
alive power that she is destined to
exert in the creation of her children.
