AND WHICH WOULD BE WHICH p
Ewing Herbert, an editor in Hiawatha,
Kan., is a reformer in new line. His
desire is for fewer churches and mIre
Christianity. Applying his theory at
home, he finds that Hiawatha has Is
churches where one would suffice, and
his scheme is to unite the several
churches into one. In his crusade he
has the support of the Rev. Charles
NJ. Sheldon, of Topeka. ''Iu Hiawa'
tha," Mr.. Herbert says, 1--WE have no
more than 1000 or 1900 steady church
goers; but we have church capacity
of $500 at cost of probably $4,000
year-and endless discord and envy
and church pride-a striving to outdo
one another but seldom in Christ's
name or for Christ's sake. We need
a Cromwell here to do some dissolv-
ing" The discharge of IA clergymen
in Hiawatha, Mr.. Herbert argues,
would leave that number free to oper-
ate in other fields that shave no reli-
gion, no service in Gods name," and
where they could do much more to
spread the Gospel than if they remain
ed in the Kansas town.

The Leitch Row In Greenville.

Greenville correspondence of the
Sunday News: Evangelist Leitch has
stirred up feeling in Greenville ny
his public utterances, which is creating
some local excitement and may result
in bitter resentment. The trouble
started with a sneering reference by
Leilch 10 a dime reading given by the
Woman's Working society to aid III
fitting up room at Furman university.
In his remarks Leitch made some ref
erence to Greenville pastors not very
complimentary. The Greenville News
made editorial reference to the utter
auce of Leitch and it was supposed
that this ended the matter. On We'd
nesday, The Mountaineer, Colonel J..
A. Hoyt's paper, editorially attacked
him as a "strolling preacher" DR..
Gardner, pastor of the First Baptist
church, iu an interview with reporter
of The Daily News, stated that he did
not take any active part in the Leitch
meeting, giving as reason that he
did not approve the meetings of Leitch.
The Rev. Mr.. Kelly, pastor of ST..
Paul's Methodist church, took occasion,
at the Leitch meeting on Wednesday
night, to make strong and bitter at
tack on Colonel Hoyt, to which Colo
mel Hoyt replied in The Mountaineer
this morning. Last night Mr.. Leitch
made severe attack on DR.. Gardner
and Colonel Hoyt, which is the talk of
the town this morning. So far as can
be learned, there is much Indignation
felt by the people Of the city on ac-
count of this unwarranted attack on
DIR. Gardner. The Greenvllle News
makes the following editorial com
ment "While it is the right aud duty
of d newspaper to print the news, We
feel that selfrespect requires the
Greenville News 10 direct attention I"
its reasons for printing the attack made
by Evangelist Leilch last night on il
man Justly honored and loved al L.
DR.. Gardner, pastor of the FIRST Bip-
list church. Nothing that Mr.. L'iIch
could say or this newspaper or amy
other could print, could injure DR..
Gardner in his church or in this com.
munity. His ability, his zeal, his puli'
ty and his usefulness as clergyman
are too widely known. Nevertheless
we feel that it is like sacrilege to print,
in any circumstances, such language
is applied to such man, no matter by
who. BY the way, anybody who
wants to understand clearly the differ
ence between DIR. Gardner and Mr..
Leitch should read the doctors state
ment and Mr.. Leitch's speech of last
night. The contrast tells more than we
could express" Mr.. Ieitch announced
last night that he would remain here Il
week longer"

very severe. A Berlin report from
Holland says that Ladysmith has
surrendered, and the entire British
army is in the hands of the enemy.
This however, is no doubt only wild
rumor. There is no reason to believe
that the Beers succeeded in breaking
railroad communication to the south,
and it is likely that if the British are
forced to evacuate Ladysmith, they
will endeavor to fall back some SO
miles to Pietermaritzburg. But still,
the preparations on the part of the
Beers for the trapping of the British
army in Ladyslnith have been very
extensive, and when the full parlicu.
lars come in, it is likely that they will
tell bloody story of some desperate
fighting.
