Same Old Story to the Negro.

Hanover, July Especial Correspond
ence.) 1.-The barbecue at Weogufka Cross
Roads was a success, so far as IT went.
The populites have been claiming it as
theirs in regard to origin, but that Is as
far as they can rightly claim, as the re-
publicans took the populite half in the
speech making, as Louis e. Parsons was
on hand and made one of his old-time
republican speeches, as he used to make
for John Henry Porter in days of yore.
The peoples party in Coosa county Is
virtually dead. The opposition to democ-
racy is republican stralght-they are
just ashamed of the name. They have
raised the same old racket among the ne
groes telling them they would be put
backing in slavery If the democratic
party elected their ticket this year. They
have been told how Mr.. Goodwin voted
for a negro, and all that he was going to
do for them when he got to be governor
of Alabama.
Just they other day a buck negro said
to an old veteran democrat: Mr.. Good
wynn voted for a negro, and he is going to
give us a showing" The enlightened ne
groes take a different view of 1t, as they
see he is only trying to deceive them
where he can't use them for his own pur-
pose So you just put it down that every
man who believes in white supremacy
and democratic principles will vote the
ticket headed by Joe Johnston, for the
opposition to democracy in Coosa county
is republicans and negroes.

CHATAUQUA'S SUNDAY.
A Day of Spiritual Pleasure and Profit Col
onel Parker on the Great Teacher
and the Beatitudes.

Talladega, July 6.-(Special Core
spondence)-The first Sunday of the
Alabama Chautauqua assembly passed
away very quietly, but pleasantly. The
usual services were held at the First
Methodist, First Presbyterian and st.
Peters Episcopal churches.
AT 4:50 p. m. Col. Francis Parker spoke
to a large audience at the auditorium.
Grambs' orchestra contributed very
much to the pleasure of the occasion by
aging some exquisite sacred music,
THE Palms" and "A Poem of Love-"
Colonel Parker'S subject was Christ,
the Great Teacher his text the Beat
itudes. He opened by saying that the
multitude the Savior saw and taught
that memorable day on the mountain
side was not only the throng at his feet,
but 1.-The world in thick darkness, in ig-
norance and barbariSm, with here and
there a bright spot. He saw arrayed
against the cross woes, intemperance,
ignorance, and just one great promise
the promise for the salvation of the
whole world. He gave to his disciples
one principle-that of self-activity. We
must work out our own salvation" He
then took up each beatitude and handled
it in a mastery way. He advanced
many original and striking ideas, but
was so broad-minded, SO entirely free
from all dogmatical assertions that his
audience was fairly won when he closed.
He was merely teacher studying the
great Teacher"
At p. m. the Chautauqua vesper ser
vices were held at the Presbyterian
church, conducted by the Rev. Mr.. Wall
ser.
At p. m. a union service was held at
the assembly hall. 1t was thrilling in
deed to hear the immense congregation
sing the grand old hymns of our forefa-
theirs. Rock of Ages Refuge" Cor
onation" and Nearer, My God, to Thee"
The music was a fit prelude to the pow
erful discourse which was delivered by
