An ALLEGED Remark ut the Oriental.

To THE EDITOR OF THE SUN-SI: The
political fight now going on reminds me Of
what certain high Republican official said
at the Oriental Hotel. Manhattan Beach, when
he was criticised for making . consolidation
Of New York and Brooklyn.
Said he: ITS the finest thing In the world;
the Irish will be all in fight and cut each
other to pieces" He meant Tammany Hall
and Kings county. and 80 1t seems.
1t also reminds mo of what saw yesterday
In Orange, N. j. An automobile Knocked
down an old woman; an officer fired . shot
into the back Of the machine. which ran the
Rasolene into the street and stopped the ma
chine.
Isn't that what Mclaughlin will do with the
Tammany machine? AN OBSERVER.

striking number, typically American, and
presenting concretely many interesting
phases of territorial and municipal pro-
gress and achievement. William r. Stew

hensive exploitation, rich with entertain

ment yet made against race suicide.

the usual amount of well digested mate

the University of Minnesota, on Our
Farmer Youth and the Public Schools,
and a brief illustrated record OF actual
experiments in "'Learning by Doing for
the Farmer Boy" by Superintendent
Kern. Of Illinois. \ clear setting forth

apples we had ever seen at one time be-
fore-large trees so loaded with apples
(of which | send the editor few speci-
mens) as to make each limb gracefully
curve almost to the ground. The sight
made quite noisy set of girls, each one
running and scrambling to get the biggest
and reddest apples.
After loading our hats and arms with
all we could carry we proceeded to the
pecan Orchard-most of the girls had
never seen Il pecan orchard before Those
trees also were loaded with nuts in clus-
ters of six and seven, but to our sorrow
the nuts were not ready to eat yet.

SERMON ON LYNCHING.
Rev. Eaton Said White People Were
Only Protecting WOmauhood.

Last night Rev. A. z. Eaton, colored,
preached at the court house on the sub
ject of lynching There was a goodly
number CT colored people present and
several white people.
In his sermon he took the position that
the white race was doing nothing but
protecting their women when they de-
manded that those guilty of criminal
assault must die and that at once. He
did not condemn lynching but rather ad-
vised members of his race to remove the
cause and lynchings would soon be I'M
heard Of The minister made a strong
appeal to members of the colored race
present to shield. protect and raise the
women Of the colOred race. There has
never been any great race OF people, he
said, whose women were not kept high
and no race can raise the standard of
womanhoOd without lettering the entire
race.
The above is taken from tie Dur
ham Herald of Tuesday. Rev. \. p.
Eaton formerly lived in Henderson
and was accounted n sensible and
conservative man, who undertook
to teach and lead his people along
right lines 1t is a good omen when
recognized leaders Of the colored race
speak out against the crime that
causes lynching and urge them to
higher ideals and "a better life.

A Noble Example.
Charity and Children.

Thomasville Charity and Children.
Senator Simmons set worthy and
noble example in advising against
the lynching of the man who is
charged with the murder of his father.
In the midst of his grief he remem-
bers the danger and generalization
of mob law. We are glad that he
thus enters his protest in this hour
OF personal suffering brought to him
by so great an outrage, against the
killing by a mob of the man who is
supposed to have done the foul deed.
We all have need, brethren, to set
ourselves against this cri me of lynch
ing criminals which is becoming SO
common. Because the people in the
North are occasionally doing the
same thing is no excuse in the world
for our doing it; it is indeed an addi-
tional reason for the practice OF self
restraint on our part. 1t is pity,
but there is no use in denying the
fact that lynching is more frequent
in the South than in any other
country III the world where law and
order are respected at all. Every
man who loves his country and his
race should follow the example set
bv Senator Simmons.

Dear Sir:-The way to reckon the cost

toput on one paint as another, don t it?
Yes, if you use the same number of gal
Ions.
Well, don't |?
No, you'll use twice as many gallons of
adulterated paint as of DevOe; and you've
got To pay twice as much for putting it

FAVORS DISPENSARY.
Mr. s. X. Harris Contra6icts a Rumor
and Gives Reasons why He Favors
the Dispensary.

EDITOR GOLD LEAF:-it is commonly
reported that | am opposed to the dis
pensary. and that | am using my influence
against it. The report is not true. and
beg leave to take enough of your valuable
space to set myself right before the public:
so desiring no controversy put on no
gan but simply state my position. |
favor the dispensary for the following
reasons:
1. As a member OF the Anti-Saloon League
l must be loyal to the leadership;>or | myself
must assume TO be a leader; but
2. am not a citizen OF the town and can
not. therefore, lead in any other movement
and upon investigation find no other move
ment looking towards temperance.
j. 1t seems to be conceded that the saloon
can be destroyed by either extreme of license
absolute monopoly absolute free trade.
But having drifted away from free trade for
so many years, and the thought is so dis
gushing to the public, and an effort in that
direction is nearly impossible and if &C
cOmplished would be fraugAt with so much
peril, therefore common prudence would sug-
gest the extreme of monopoly, the dispen-
sary.
l. The Gi~pensary will eliminate the per-
sonal element of the opposition from the
future battle for prohibition.
y. 1t is less dangerous to turn Il lion loose
HALF the time than ALL the zine.
T.. 1t is poor religion to assume That be-
cause l cannot be perfectly righteous, there
fore | will be an absolute demon.
Z. | do not admire the wisdom or consist
ency OF man who will not join church be-
cause the church is not good enough.
8. The dlspensary is cOntended for by the
great body OF CONSERVATIVE Christian work
ers of the town and is contended against by
the extremes which have met.
+ 8. 1t is the common experience of dispen-
towns th1+ crime iS lpsSnpa1 and
officers are needed to keep order which with
ont regard TO cost in money. is Il desirable
end.
10. Numerous appati's from men who come
from the ;ttinosi here If pure country homes

have come TO n" insis. ing that something be
