Valuable Historic Treatise

''The Origin of Christianity" is the
title of handsomely printed pam
phlet written and published by Rabbi
Bogen, of Greenville, and Rabbi Solo
ONION, of Vicksburg. 1t is interesting
and educational; its motive to con-
vince, not to dispute. Casual readers
of the Bible do not always appreciate
the fact that in Christ's day there
were sects in the Jewish church as
there are in the Christian church to-
day; and these sects of Jewish people
didn't love each other bit better than
the different denominations of Chris
tians do now. 1t was from one of the
best and cleanest of three Jewish sects
that Christianity had its origin accord
ing to the research of these two schol-
arly men. 1t will not shake the faith
of any Christian to read the hook, but
it may give some information that is
valuable GreeaUiiie Spirit.

A Busted Dynasty,

During his two terms in congress
Hon. Pat Henry has made a record that
not only himself, but his district and
the State, can be proud Of. There is
not question but what he would have
been renominated were it not for the
fact that he was regarded as the friend
and candidate of the State Executive
Committee and their allies. So thor
oughly disguised are the people with
this committee, its acts and their
friends, that they have determined to
defeat every man who aspires to an Of
fee under their wing. Mr.. Henry was
but a victim of his friends and the
disgust of the people for their mode Of
conducting the politics of Mississippi.
1t is the beginning of the fall of the dy-
nasty. Yazoo Herald.

The Publisher Makes the COun
try Newspaper.

The question has been discussed by
a few papers in the State as to whether
or not a country newspaper pays.
From our experience it does not de-
pend so much upon the patronage as
the publisher A newspaper is like a
watch-to keep it moving it must be
wound up regularly. There are many
throughout the State which do not pay,
simply because the publisher is too Ia
~ to fish for local news, or is gadding
about on the railroads, leaving his pa
per in charge of blacksmith printers.
The Register does not believe that
many editors in Mississippi could start
a national bank, but vast number
of them could greatly improve their
papers if they would only put on their
hustling clothes and stay at home and
work, instead of filing their columns
each week with "slush" and dead pat
ent medicine advertisements. If the
publisher will only do his duty suffi-
cient patronage will be sure to follow.

In his last message to Congress, Pres.
Lincoln used the following language,
which in the light of present condi-
tions, seems to be an almost fulfilled
prophecy: II see in the near future a
crisis approaching that unnerves me
and causes me to tremble for the safety
of my country. AS result of the war,
corporations have been enthroned, and
an era of corruption in high places
win follow, and the money power OF
the country will endeavor to prolonq
its reign by working upon the predju
dices of the people until all wealth is
aggregated in few hands and the re-
public is destroyed. feel at this mo

Mccormick wins at Paris.

The Mccormick Harvesting Machine
Company of Chicago, has been award
ed the Grand Prize on Harvesting
Machines at the Paris Exposition.
This is the highest award.
The Mccormick Company also re-
ceived the highest award, gold medal,
on binder Irvine, for the superior quail
ity of its product. Special Irvine ma
chinery from the celebrated McCor-
mick Irvine mill was exhibited to the
jury and awarded a medal.
The McCormicks have received the
largest number of awards, as well as
the highest award made to any Ameri-
can exhibitor In addition to the Grand
Prize on machines and Gold Medal on
Irvine they received two medals in the
department of metallurgy for superb
ority in forming metals into special
parts for machines; In the department
of machinery a medal for factory
machinery, and also silver and bronze
medals in other classes, six medals in
all, besides the Grand Prize.
The International juries of the Ex-
position have recognized the great
revolution wrought by Mccormick ma
chimes and this large number of awards
is great triumph for America.
In addition to winning these awards,
the Gold Medal and 200 francs, the
single highest award for binders. was
won easily by the Mccormick Binder
at the field trial Coulommiers on July
10, against all. This is the greatest and
most important trial held in France
during the Exposition year.

WELLTYoToN FOR BRYAN.

Senator Wellington, of Maryland,
has formally renounced his allegiance
to the Republican party and will sup
port Bryan. The imperialistic policy
Of the Republican party decided him
to take this step. In an opening cam
paign speech at Deer Park, Maryland,
among other things he said:
al cannot see my way clear to in
weigh against Imperialism, against the
unconstitutionality of the Porto Rico
tariff bill, the nnrighteousness Of at
tempting to enslave the inhabitants of
the Philippine Islands and the dis
honor of breaking our pledge to Cuba
and then, because of the mandate Of a
sinister influence which dominates the
president, forswear my convictions;
set at naught my declarations and do
as Senator Hoar and others, appeal to
the past and future. The past Is dead;
| cannot change it. No appeal will
reach its deaf ear. The future is not
in my keeping and il is not in my
power to fashion it. Therefore / am
here tonight to reiterate the convic-
tions I voiced in the senate and record
my opposition to the principles OF
President Mckinley as evidenced in
his foreign policy and with all the We
hemence of positive nature protest
against the violation of the principles
upon which our government is found
ed, against the dissertation OF the con-
stitution and the reversal Of the policy
which has given US q century and a
half of national life, such as the his
tory of man hath not recorded ip any
age or cline.
Referring to his position upon the
Paris treaty, he said he had voted for
it because he wanted to bring the war
to technical as we'll as to real close.
He had, however, only consented to
give his vote after securing the pres
ident's assurance that it was not his
purpose to permanently acquire or to
hold against the consent of the inhab>
itants the Philippine islands; that 1t
was his purpose to restore law and
order by American arms in the contest
then being waged and to prevent for
eign interference in the affairs of the
archipelago. "This was my under
standing and upon that promise voted
for the ratification of the treaty. With.
out my vote it would never have been
ratified The treaty was ratified but
the promise of the president was not
fulfilled. will do Mr.. Mckinley jus
tice. When he gave the pledge he in
tended it should be kept. / believe
bis purpose then was that there should
be no permanent occupation, that
there should be no enforcement OF
American authority against the will OF
the natives, but that there should be
an upbuilding power that would give
the foundation of government Of
their choosing and that we wo uld treat
with them, receive their concessions
and protect them in their liberty
against the world. But, sir, that inten
ton faded away against the malevolent
influences that have pursued his ad-
ministration and made themselves
felt. Gradually the president changed
front. Congress had adjourned; the
treaty had been adopted; the stipula-
ted price was paid; our armies contin,
ued fighting during the interregnum
of congress. The first campaign had
been a failure. Another campaign
was about to begin"
