RESERVE YOUR JUDGMENT,

In the Dallas News of August 81,
an article appears over the signature
of J. w. Whatley which tells of
the location of the "Panhandle
Baptist College at Canyon City"
and then still 0R0ther one at Ca
madam and all by the same COM
mission at Claude. This letter re-
produced from the News reads as
follows:
''Apropos of locating the Baptist
Panhandle College at Canyon City
permit me to state the facts in de-
tail. The commission located the
college at Canyon City by vote
of IL to 9, and later made it unanl-
nous. As one of the locating COM
missioners believe Canyon one
of the most desirable places in Tex
as that could be selected for such
an institution.
"Canadian's proposition consist
ed of the best college brick house
in the West already erected, thir-
teen acres Of campus and alternate
lots or blocks of eighty acres ad-
joining the latter, with 500 acres
of good land, a number of town lots
and a new piano, all of which was
placed at the low value of $4,000.
1t was such liberal proposition,
backed up by good people, that it
Immediately bore fruit.
Gas soon as the location of the
Baptist Panhandle College was de-
cided in favor of Canyon, a motion
was made and carried that the COM
mission also accept Canadians
proposition. A letter now before
me from the proper authority in
forms me "that he is making in
uuirv and on the lookout for pres
ident for Canadian College, and
that we will commence the school
Jan. I, 1904" We expect this
college to Immediately 60 into the
hands of the Baptist educational
commission or the correlated sys-
TEN. and il will be backed by not
only three associations, but by
more than 10000 white BaptiSts
in Texas, more especially and i'm
mediately will it be backed by the
combined and noblest band of
every denomination living in the
Panhandle of Texas So you see,
Canyon has not monopoly of all
the ecstacy, for we are expecting
great things ourselves.
J. w. WHATLEY.
Last week the Clarendon Chron-
icle made similar declaration
.that-"the Panhandle is to have
two Baptist Colleges instead OF
one" and that too by the action Of
commission whose authority IT
that direction ceased when the
choice fell upon Canyon City, Il
is a well known fact that but ont
colle0e for the wkOle P0Rhandd
country was talked about, nay
even dreamed of by common PEG
pie; only one was mentioned by th'
association and ORly one did they
charge the commission to locate
This, was the understanding be
tween the towns conteSting for TIT
site. For good and sufficient rea
sons not deemed necessary to herr
set out it was upon these ground
that but one college would D.

When Rev. A. Il, Baten DOM
ed the robes of the Church he
went against the natural bent
of his mind-he should have
been Il lawyer. All men have a
place in the world for which
they are fitted by nature. Law
yers are no exception to this
rule-good ones are born with
legal minds which, when sharp
ehed by education aud ex.
perlence, cause them to take the
front rank in this noble profeS
sion and, unless the News is
badly mistaken, Bro. Baten be

look at the situation the bids were
invited with, (mark the Words an
express understanding and the
pledge of great religious organiza-
ton that but one college would be
the outgrowth of the present con-
test. This is no one-sided view
reasonable men cognizant of the
facts cannot escape this conclusion
and when last week t,so SSs- -.
Gle stated that the association,
through its representatives, had
violated its solemn pledge by locat-
ing tW0 colleges the News denied
it as unworthy of belief. And
even now, Notwithstanding the
scripture saith that "by the mouth
of two witnesses shall all things be
Established" the News is still UNI
convinced though Bro. Whatley
confirms the statement made by
the Chronicle.
AS stated in the News last week,
in reply to the Chronicle article,
the establishment at this time of
two Baptist colleges in the Panhan-
die, "without the consent of the
winning town would be gross
breach of faith on the part of the
committee and the News cannot
believe that the gentlemen com.
posing it would lend themselves to
any such a scheme" at was
such a liberal proposition $27,-
900, at low value" 1t seems to
have turned Bro. Whatley'S head,
but the News desires to say right
now and here that it don't believe
the committee was caught by it
and it is sure that ten thousand
times $27 1000, won't get the asso-
citation to endorse a measure of
this kind.
"Reserve your judgment" This
is what a leading Baptistand friend
of the News remarked to the writer
today when speaking of Bro. What
ley's article.
"Reserve your Judgment" This
is what the News would repeat to
its readers. A greatre!igious body
like the Baptists will not counte-
nance Wrong-The Chronicle and
Bro. Whatley are mistaken in their
conclusions-Canyon City and
Canyon City alone, will, as prom
ised, get the Baptist College.

may happen In your life and death.
hope the death scene may happen many
years from now. Some day in the dim
future, let us hope when your life's
work Is drawing to n close, there will
be great excitement in some village or
in one of the nclghborhoods of great
city. Everywhere the word will be
whispered: Have you heard the news?
Have you heard the newsI The doc
tor, the good old family doctor, is very
sick" Then the news will be printed
In the village or the city newspapers
that the good doctor, the family doctor
Is dead. Then in your family home
there will be assembled fearful gath
ering. The young men and the young
women there will not only remember
that you welcomed them into the
world, but also will tell how you put
your gentle hand of remonstrance upon
their shoulders when they were about
to drift away into sin. Then the older
folks will tell how you prayed with
them when they lost their first babies.
And the minister will tell how your
presence was always the strongest spir-
itual reinforcement In the church. And
the poor families will tell how you not
only paid for the medicines out OF your
own pocket, but also how you got your
friends to help out their winter need
with clothing and food and coal. And
while these weeping friends are telling
of your good works, as the weeping
widows did about the corpse OF Dorcas'
there will be heard hutter Of wings,
Then the same messenger which car
ried up your soul-yOur redeemed soul
to the white throne OF God will return.
And the same voice which spake when
