A DEBT PAYING RELIGION.

The world needs today debt-paylns
religion. religion that makes no man rest
easy in Zion when he owes money 10 MS
follow man. A few weeks ago we printed
an extract from a Monroe exchange 10
the effect that the converts OF reVlVal
conducted by Evangelist Schoolfeld were
having their old debts as one of the prac-
tical evidences of sound conversion. NO
skeptic could doubt the genuineness Oh
the conversion of a man whose hrst act
was to hunt up his creditors and make
fuu navments of his debts, or such par
tial payments as his financial condatioh
wopld hermit. AS in line with the in
stances from Monroe, the following from
a n.rham exchange, is full of encourage
ment and hope:
IS r. Darlington, on Friday, received
letter from San Marcial, \. M, from
r b. Allen, in which was encloseu
check for $50 TO pay a loan Ior lpaI
amount Mr.. Darlington made TO MI Al
lon in 1877. This is remarkable CIR
cumstance and shows the honesty that
;s sometimes found in a mans heart'
Mr. Allen writes that about TWO weeks
ago he was converted and feels that MS
Sins nave been forgiven and he sees many
of rho foolish things he did in his past
life and that now he wants to hive right.
ue longs to see his old friends III Dur
ham and talk to them. He also wants
Ia know something of Mrs. Burrus,
who ran a boarding house here In 1871 or
,7S He wants her address, as he owes
her little bill and desires to pay it,
This is as good evidence as we desire
to have that Mr.. Allen has the old time
religion about which there is, we fear,
more singing than possessing.
There is another kind of religion that
is akin to the debt-paying kind; and a
revival of that sort is greatly needed. 1t
is a religion that will restrain men from
contracting debts which they cannot pay,
taking up goods without the prospect of
paving for them as the discipline of the
churches puts it. There are men who be-
come involved in debt through unfortun-
ate business ventures who are in no sense
10 be criticized or to have their honesty
impugned. 1t is not of this class that we
speak, but of men who seem to have no
scruples against living beyond their
means at the expense of business men,
who put confidence in their promise to
pay, men whose families live at a fash
ionable' gait far in advance of their
means. Such Indebtedness is nothing
short of dishonesty and men who become
thus involved will need conversion that
will cause them to seek out their credit
ors before they can expect to enjoy the
confidence of their fellows in this world.
As to the next-well, we will not presume
TO judge the future of the man who is a
dead beat in this life.

TRIED TO. GAG MORGAN
HE SACRILEGiOUSLY CRITICIZED
REEDS TRAP-DoOR TACTICS.
Was About to Appeal from Decision
When Hale Withdrew n
Point of Order.

Washington, May 29.-Progress on tho
tariff bill in the Senate was checked to
day, the plate glass paragraphs proving
Il source Of controversy lasting through
cut the day. As u result. little more than
a page of the bill was disposed of. The
Finance committee succeeded with diff
ticulty in resisting proposed amendments
from Democratic members Of the com
mttee although each amendment was
debated at great length.
An exciting incident occurred during
the afternoon when Senator Morgan. of
Alabama, was called to order by Mr.
Gallinger who was temporarily in the
chair, for severely criticising the inaction
of the House of Representatives. Mr.
Morgan declared that the Speaker of the
House was enforcing an automatic. trap
door rule by which representatives, were
assembled and dispersed and he charac-
teriZed this action as an outrage against
popular rights. Mr.. Frye, of Maine, first
gave warning that Il protest would be
made against criticisms of the other
House, and when Mr.. Morgan vehement
lily repeated his criticisms. Mr.. Hale made
Il point of order against him. The tenn
porary presiding officer directed Mr.. Nor
gan to resume his seat, and then ruled
| that he was out of order. The Alabama
Senator, somewhat chagrined, was about
| to appeal from the decision of the cha;r
when Mr.. Hale withdrew his point of
| order and further friction was avoided.
Mr.. Morgan resumed his criticisms dur

that Congress was not now in session i'll

COOPERATIVE COLON rs.

: To the Editor The spirit of industrial
cooperation seems to be abroad in the
land. Corporations as well as individuals
are being interested in behalf of the toll
ers of earth. The establishment of these
cooperative colonies will solve the diff
cult problem, Of what to do with the idle
masses" The Ruskin cooperative colony
IN Tennessee, if the published statements
OF It's affairs be true, rs not only solving
a valuable problem, but is making of it
self a model that may well find many imi-
tators in the not distant future. This colo
ny is an example of what cooperation in
the best and fullest sense can do for the
toiling masses. NO millionaires, no pau
pers, is cardinal principle of all these
organizations, which means a social equal
1ty and absence of pinching want and os-
tentatiOus superb bundance elboWing each
other in the streets and homes; means in
short, condition applying the ideal So
clal and industrial life as is possible i'll
this age
Not only do these cooperative colonies
exist in most of the states, but we find
that in North Carolina that the Francis
h. Willard cooperative colony has be-
gun operations at Andrews, n. O., a town
in the very heart of Valley river valley,
in Cherokee county. The railroad from
Asheville to Murphy passes through the
10000 acres purchased by the colony. The
capital stock is 100000, divided into
10000 shares. Preparations for farming,
stock raising, dairying and manufactur-
ing are begun. One hotel has been opened
and another building. A gold mine and
a marble quarry are about to be opened.
A college, a public library, and church
are also building Five thousand acres are
set aside for cooperative labor All the
industries will be operated on the coop
eratiye plan. and a scale of wages has
been established
There are also other cooperative colo
MES being successfully operated in this
state. Among the latest, is the WOman's
Cooperative Manufacturing Company at
Ashebor0, esta bhshed by DR.. ]. M. Worth,
whose brains and capital were the foun-
dal0ns of this enterprise.
The Seaboard Air Line Railway sys-
TEN, has caught ON to the spirit of indus
trial cooperation, and is establishing ex-
perimental farms along it's line of road,
besides introducing, free to the farmers,
improved stock trees seeds, and etc.
The old policy of killing the goose that
laid the golden egg" has become an ex-
ploded idea with corporations, as well as
individuals, and the doctrine of helping
others, that they may help you, or in
other words, the golden rule, do unto
others as you would have them do unto
YOU" is becoming the solid business prin-
ciple of to-day.
Let the good work go on; there is In
such organizations the possipliltles OF

VICTIMS OF A CONFIDENCE GAME

Talking a few days ago with wei
known cotton mill manufactures, who
voted against Bryan last year, he said
that he made an honest mistake for which
he was honestly sorry. Il thought" said
ne, that the rich men who said McKin-
ley's election would restore confidence
would themselves have confidence if he
won and would turn loose their money
] find that they prefer the enhancement
of their boarded dollar to a general re-
vival of business"
In the same manner talked Mr.. L. G.
Peyton, of Virginia, to a Washington
Post reporter. He is quoted as saying:
Like many other business men of
Richmond, / was strongly opposed to
the election of Mr.. Bryan in spite
of the fact that I'd always been
Democrat / paired with a friend
who intended voting for Bryan, and
thus was saved from casting vote
directly for the Republican candi-
date.
at seems to me now that those Of
us who contributed to the success of
the Republican ticket have been the
victims of confidence game. We
believed that Congress would be call
ed for the purpose of reforming and
strengthening our financial system;
there was no idea that the tariff
would be made the paramount subject
of legislation, for that threadbare is
sue has in it nothing to relieve the
depression that has cursed the coun-
try"
