Sound Sentiment.

The Tennessee Association of Southern
Baptist churches, in its annual meeting
on June 10 last, adopted the following
resolution:
Resolved That we, the members of the
Southern Baptist convention, reassert our
truceless and uncompromising hostility
to the manufacture, sale. Importation and
TRANSPORTATION of alcoholic beverages III
any and all their forms. We regard the
policy of issuing government license Tor
the purpose of carrying on the liquor
traffic as a sin against God and a dis
honor 10 our people. We furthermore
announce it as cur conviction that We
should by all legitimate means oppose
the liquor traffic in municipality, county,
state and nation. Furthermore, we an
nounce it as the sense OF this body that
no person should be retained in the fell
lowship of a Baptist church who engages
in the manufacture or sale of alcoholic
liquors either at wholesale or retail
rates.. who invests his money in the
manufacture or sale of alcoholic liquors
or who rents his property to be used
for distilleries. wholesale liquor houses
or saloons. Nor do we believe that any
church should retain in its Fellowship any
member who drinks intoxicating liquors
as a beverage, or visits saloons or drink
ing places for the purpose of such in
diligence.

If a thoughtful woman were asked:
What is the greatest curse of your sex?'
she might well answer Impulse" It is
responsible for almost all the mistakes
made by the goodhearted among US. May
it not be safely said that a few minutes
thought before speech or acton would
prevent most fatal blunderS? Many of us
are in positive bondage to our bird-iil1e
QuickneSS to feel, TO show our feeling, TO
retort, or to respond. Ii we are hurt, we
must Immediately give ourselves away,
as the phrase runs, if not by bitter speech
al least by look and manner; yet reflection
frequently brings the. keenest regret for
the lost dignity. the betrayed secret. Many
a one has wrecked her own happiness Tor
the want of the patient stoicisn which
would have led her TO stand aside for
awhile, watching events until they
brought with them her opportunity. Even
when we are happy, it is not always well
to let the bright stream bear us away
rudderless. The inpulsive manifestation
of affection. the hasty proposal of mar
riage, the hasty acceptance, have they
never proved the beginnings of misery?
Or has a rash word never Snndered true
lovers, true friends? If these things are
true. it is likewise true that the fault
in the commencement has been that of
feminine impulsiyeneSs. The defect is a
generous one, and, therefore, commoner
with us than it is with men, so that it
handicaps US unfairly in the struggle of
life. And truly it is a weary task to be
always with a host of petty maxims
preaching down ones heart. But we
must do it; either we must rule feelings
or feelings will rule us. 1t is a good serv-
ant, but a bad master. Our loving wom-
ems hearts are like the fire of the do
mestic hearth-the light of the home
when duly controlled warming the whole
house, but if the fire be not kept in its
subordinate place what a conf1agrat-on en-

Hip, hip. hurrahr' was originally a
warcry adopted by the stormers of a
German town where great many Jews
had taken refuge. The place being sacked
they were all put to death, amid shouts
of 'Hierosolyma est perdita." From the
first letters of these words Oh. e. D. an
exclamation was contrived. Few of those
who raise the English cheer in festivity
or battle are aware that they use a cry
associated with the fall of Jerusalem and
those bloodthirsty prosecutions of Jews
by so-called Christians which are so foul
a stain upon the page of history.
Now, there is something which, l am
sure, even Wise You didn't know before.

It is generally supposed that pirates
TO longer exist, except n the lurid
literature sold TO small boys. This is
3. mistake. France has just fitted out
three warships for the purpose of
wiping out a nation. Of pirates, and
Spain stands ready to help France if
any help be needed.
The pirates are the Riffs of Mo
rocco. Long before the dawn Of the
Christian era these people were pirates,
and they are just as much in the bust
ness today as ever. Century after
century they have plundered on sea
and on laad, and none of the great
powers have been ambitious to declare
war upon them and bring them 20
terms.
This is all the more strange for the
reason that the great modern guns OF
the English mounted on the rocks OF
Gibraltar could almost throw a pro-
jectile across the strait and into the
country inhabited by the pirates.
Riff mems 1.-The coast in the native
language and while the Riffians are
roninally the subjects of the sultan OF
Morocco he has as much control over
them as he has over the Indians OF
Alaska Ali of the resources of Moor
ish ferocity, cruelty, craft and power
have been employed to bring the Riff
fans to terms, but without success.
The sultan or Morocco is not a peace
full gentleman by any means, and deeds
of gross inhumanity are of common oc-
currence with him, but he has not The
equal of the Riff pirate in these mat
ters.
The Riff country is not extensive,
5 being but IS miles wide and 2lO miles
in length. but if the sultan could con-
troll it it would yield rich returns to MS
taxeatherers. Moreover, it could be
made of immense commercial value, as
il includes all of that part of Mo-
rocco fronting upon the Mediterranean
sea, running from the city of Centa,
which is directly opposite Gibraltar, to
The boundary line dividing Algeria and
Morocco.
FRANCES OPPORTUNITY.
A few weeks ago a swarm of Riff
pirates in their peculiar little boats
called feluccas sailed out to the French

were angry, but the statesmen Of
France were nightly pleased The
outrage has given them an excuse for

There would be no use in appealing
TO the sultan of Morocco for redress.

but France prefers to seek her own
vengeance and collect her own dam

the form of the whole of the Riff coun-

will be the first step on the part of a
European power TO break into the ter

Uniyersalist: 1t is not riches in them

rather the mean and selfish spirit which
men sometimes manifest in securing and

tricks he will resort that he may have

ORDINATION OF STUMP SPEAKING.

A Kentucky paper says the expression
stump speaking" was originated by Ken
tuckians. and gives. this account of its or
igin: In 1915, John Mclean. at the age of
"a. moved from Logan county 70 Shawnee
town. Ills, without other capital than is
generally possessed by lawy ers of that
oay-'-poor talented and ambitious.
Nature, and life on blue grass soil made
him a great orator. Indeed, as a biogra-
pher expressed it, besides his great
strength Of mind. there was no man IN
Illinois, before or since his day, that sur
passed him in pure, natural eloquence.'
McLesn's first serious trial of his power
was for seat in congress upon the adj
mission of his adopted state into the
Union, in 1918. His opponent was Daniel

from that campaign originated the title
since given to ''word-of-mouth" politi-
clans.

men by Disgusting themselves as Moors
have, within the past 20 years, sue
ceeded in making some investigation
of the country, but nothing of GER
tain and extensive character has been
CLEANED
1t is estimated that the population
of the Riff country is 105, 000 They are
not AIoors,- but come Of Berber, or abo-
riginal stock. They are MohammedanS,
but they would murder one Of their
own religious belief as soon as they
would kiln a Christian. They are di-
vided into countless little tribes, and
when they have nothing better to do
fight among themselves. But on a
threatened invasion by the regular
forces Of the sultan they flock to-
gether and present a united front TO
the enemy.
HAVE MODERN GUNS.
The Riffs are we'll armed, and know
how TO use the modern munitions of
war with considerable skill Within
the past year they have plundered
about a dozen vessels, and the crews
of these have reported that the pirates
had rifles of recent make. They wear
body sashes holding many knives and
pistols, and in boarding vessels al
ways use short swords, or daggers, in
preference TO firearms.
The last VentureSOme explorer who
succeeded in getting partial glimpse
of the Riff country was an Englis6lman
named Harris. Disguised as a Moorish
trader, with arms and legs stained a
deep brown, he managed to avoid de-
lection for some months. He spoke
Arabia fairly WELL but deemed it wiser
to pose as a deaf mute. He was ac-
companied by an Arab boy, who did all
of the talking, and who proved a val
liable assistant. This trip was made
in 1888.
This explorer found that the Lesser
Alias mountains, which run along the
Riff country parallel with the coast,
were spendiily fortified with cannon.
Every Riff native is somewhat of a
blacksmith and arunorer, understand
ing how to mold bullets, make powder
and to repair guns. They buy their
guns by making secret journeys to
Algerian and Spanish ports, and it is
believed that they exchange plumber
with certain traders for whatever they
need Moorish customs officers have
endeavored to break up the traffic and
thereby cripple the Riffians, but the
latter WorSted them so badly that of
late years they have done as they
pleased.
It remains to be seen what the
French will do with them. A French
cruiser has been ordered from Toulon
to the Riff coast, and Admiral Gervais,
commander of the French Mediter-
ranean squadron. has, under orders
from Paris, sent the cruiser Troude and
the dispatch boat D'Ilberville to the
scene of what promises to be a bloody
conflict.

More Beautiful.

The Moravian: A doctrine lived is more
beautiful than a doctrine preached. Jesus
taught His disciples to forgive men their
irespasses, and that was beautiful; but
when upon the cross He prayed, Father,
forgive them, for they know not what
they do" that was sublime. If we are not
e. called to preach, we are at least
called to adorn the doctrine of God our
Savior in all things, and that is better
than more preaching.
