Bound to Depart

San Francisco Wave: A youthful
Stockton man rushed to catch a river
boat for San Francisco, but was about
two minutes late. The steamer was
six feet out as he reached the dock.
He swung his grip aboard and, jump
ing, caught a rope and a post and held
fast. Every one imagined he had fallen
in. Ire captain. peering over the side
saw his intrepid passenger. Here,
you he shouted, by Jimmy crickets,
don't you ever do that again." The
passenger had hauled himself aboard

Christians Urged to Vote.

hev q L Harmon, pastor of the
Buncombe Street Methodist
church, preached a strong sermon
Sunday morning, in which he
urged upon Christians the necessi>
ty for their activity Mt the polls.
His text was taken from Exodus.
18th chapter and 2lst verse, as
follows: "Moreover, thou shalt
provide out of all the people able
men, such as fear God, men of
truth, hating covctousness: and
place such men over them, to be
ru Icrs of thousands, and rulers of
hundreds, rulers of GfticS, and
rulers of tens.
Mr. Harmon reviewed the part
which religion or the lack of re,
ligion has played in the history of
nations and pointed out how the
loss of respect for Gods wishes
had resulted in the decay of those
nations. He urged that it was
sufficient to have simply righteous
principles beneath u government,
but that righteous men should he
put in office to uphold those prin-
ciplcs.
He spoke of the right of fran
chlse as one of the most delicate
and responsible rights of man and
one of the most important duties
OF citizenship. He pleaded for
plety at the ballot box as well as
at church or in the home.
Perhaps the most significant
sentence in the sermon was this:
"Ihis book of Exodus may he oh,
solete to the bIasphcmcr or infdcI,
but 1T is not to the man of God
God here lays down three essen
tlals to he considered in SELECTING
mon to rule over the people from
president to coroner, viz: ability,
plety and great force of moral
character" The speaker then
went on to elaborate this thought,
insisting upon the selection of
men of ability, men of piety and
men of truth, hating covetousness,
men of great moral force of
character.
The sermon wac n very able
discourse and has been WIDELY
commended and praised by all who
heard it.
MIR W u Fowler brought to

which were very badly damaged

day afternoon. Mr. Fowler's
farm is about five miles this side
of Woodruff. He reports that
the hail ruined half his cotton
crop and that he will make very
little fodder. His neighbors suf-
fered also, but not as much as Mr.

Iillman offered at the Edgefeld
meeting to bet that the Method
lists would be willing to take him
HIM into their church ''to help
pay the preacher" The Senator
no doubt thus concludes from the
fact that there are some Metho-
dists in the State who are allurcd
INTO supporting the dispensary by
the Senator's argument of the
money in it. Shame upon the
Methodist who causes this sIur
upon his church. 1t is time for
Methodists, especially, to pause
and think before voting for the
dispensary.

'heoioSlcal seminary &hd study
Scripture interpretations. But
doesn't it all seem a huge Joke
that Mr. Tillman should quote
Scripture and isn't it presumption
in the extreme for him to lecture
preachers about their duties. Was
there ever such an example of
conccit as for Mr. TilIman to set
himself up as knowing more about
right and wrong than all the
preachers in South Carolina.
"llave the workers of iniquity no
knowledge" "
''The preachers are honest, but
weak in the upper story; they
don't know" All, but Mr. TiIl>
man knows! Mr. TilIman is drunk
on power and that is the worst
drunk in the world for making a
fool of man.
But will tne people follow Mr.
TiIIman or the preachers and the
Bible! There was a time in South
Carolina when they would follow
him against the preachers and the
Bible and God. Has that t.me
passed The Lord grant that it
has. But, | want to say this to
my friends in Cherokee, if YOU
think Mr. TiIIman knows more of
the Bible and of right, of how to
live and how to die than | do, LET
him be your pastor, let him come
to pray for you when you come to
die, let him preach your funeral
when you are dead. don't

what he is doing. 1t puts hlm in

of some candidate for governor.
MI Tlllman wants to know if

never saw man have to sweat
and blow and bawl at people to
get them to do as they please.
"My success in leading the people
