paid us a visit on the 10Th inst.
He is a free silver democrat and
opposed TO proteeiionin every form
and guise. de is an earnest ad7o-
cate Of q graduated income taz'and
believes that by no other means can
the extremely rich be required 10
bear their jus, portion Ofthe burdens
Of the government. He favors The
election Of United States Senator by
a direct vote Of the people, ana Is
very pronounced in his opposition
to the imperial doctrine Of eX'
psnsion. He is strongly in favor
Of the equalization of taxation SO
as 10 reach money loaned upon
mortgages and al classes Of inVisi-
bic wealth as well as lands and
other visible property, and thinks
that our system Of taxation and
appropriations should be so adjust
ed and reformed as TO make the
State income equali,s expenditures,
And in order to lessen tbs burdens
upon individuals be advocates the
taxation Of all railrsads in !heState
ard a vigorous prosecution OF the
railroad back tax suits now pending.
He lie oue Of the leading lawyers for
! the State in these noted suits and
has won much reputation in the
successful management Of the same
He favors a most liberal policy TO-
wards all classes Of factories and
| would allow them all exemptions
permissible under the constitution.
| Fsvors the election of Judges 40 d
Chancellors by the people. Is an

van,ages in the distribution of the
School fund to the white counties
Of the State, and advocates a low

form set Of school books for the en-,
tire State.
In conclusion he Gays, after all,
the main thing to be considered by
the people in the election Of Govern
or is the character Of the man. They
want a Governor who will subordi'
nate every personal end and am
bitinn to the will of the people
and the good Of the State. This Ii
the main question for them to pass
upon.

81 HAVE PLAYED THE FOOL"
The Discourse of Rev. Isaac Peart
at the Methodist Episcopal Church
Last Sunday Evening.

Rev. Or. Peart at the Methodist
Episcopal church Sunday night took
his text from lst Samuel 1921. II have
gene and played the fool" The con-
gregatlon was large and rcposenta-
tive one. Or. Feart said;
II have gone and played the fool"
Who 10 the man that speaks these
words2 answer--a distinguished per-
sonallty. In what respect is he dis
'tingulshed? / reply. /, He is the tallest
man OF his nation, standing head and
shoulders over his brethren, n magnii-
cent and splendid speolman OF physical
manhood. 2. He is q king. That means
authority. power, dominion, honor g.,
He Is the first king to sway the scep-
ter Of authority and power over the
children OF Israel. At this juncture Il
is proper to ask "of what does his
folly oonslst?" / answer. l. Jealousy.
He is lnsanely Jealous Of his best
friend, David, and tries not a few
times to kill him. A man who will try
to murder his dearest friend is sure
enough fool. O. His deliberate dis
obedience to divine authority. His
reign Is a series Of disobedlent acts and
and defeat. g. He fights against God,
and this Is always an act OF folly
Tonight propose to point out few
ways In which persons play the fool.
|, A person who spends money for
that which is not bread Is playing the
fool. What is the cause Of hard times
We differ in our answers to this ques-
tlon, But when we ask What Is the
cause of poverty?" we are almost unan-
imous in our answer-namely Riot
Gus living" Not the single standard
or the double standard; not high tariff
or low tariff; not lack Of confidence
but wasting of substance in spending
money for that which Is not bread, Is
the cause Of nine-tenths Of the poverty
