Sulphur SPRINGS Campmeetinp.

The Sulphur Springs Campmeeting
was in progress last week. Last Sun
day was a big day, the crowd being es-
timated at from six to ten thousand.
Horses were hitched for mile in each
direction. AS nothing was allowed to
be sold within one mile, watermelon
wagons stopped mile from the
grounds. The large pavilion was filled
and late corners could not get near
enough to hear the speakers voice.
At noon hot dinner was served for 25
cents in the hotel, a long building with
Slated sides and rooms above. Long
tables we're covered with provisions.
An old colored man had two large pots
! Of meat cooking under small tent
and he alternately poked the fire and
the meat. After eating our lunch we
strolled into straw carpeted pavilion.
Presiding Elder Francisco kindly in
vited us to dine at his table, but we
had already eaten. We had many hos
pitable invitations and must say what
we always do, that there is no better
hospitality in the states eve have been
in the east and vest than right here.
The automobile attracted good deal
of attention as it chugged along. One
good lady observed as she watched it
pass her door, 81 never seed such a
thing as that in my life." Messrs.
Nuchols and Brazwell were the pass
engers and they made the run in good
shape, except when bothered by a road

home where they had trouble with the
vibrator. A more orderly crowd would
be hard to find. We obtained Satur-
days program Of the services but were

We now have three organized COM
panies.
All the officers have moved into their
respective quarters.
There are almost daily arrivals from
the other Homes, Danville being in
the lead with Marion next.
Ground has been broken for the beer
hall and some of the old "vets" have
already begun to show signs of hilarity,
but the CRATE bar windows at the street
car entrance put little damper on
their frisky feelings.
The combination church is under
way and will be quite an ornament to
the grounds when completed. All the
barracks, library and other buildings
will be completed before Jack Frost
makes his appearance.
Our Soldiers Home duties are too
numerous to allow us to reply to the
gas-bag correspondent at CARRIERS. We
thought he had fallen through the bot
tom of his pants and hung himself, but
10 there he is, sitting on his launches
bowling at the moon like a hungry
coyote.

Missed His Queue,

That things are seldom what they
seem is evidenced frequently in John
son City. For instance, last week a
gentleman from the country walked
up to the store Of W. /. Hart & 90. and
after looking carefully at "Chubby"
Galliher for long time said: Is
this the Chinese laundry?" "Chubby"
said mo sir, as emphatically as he
could and after the strsngerleft contin-
ued tc talk, but the language was not
tit to print. knowing "Chub" as we
have for so many years we confess that
we had not noticed the resemblance
before. but of course, stranger is ex-
pected to locate place by the signs
displayed.

The Christian church convention at

unable to get one for Sunday. We
saw people from all parts of the conn
try and were constantly meeting IA
miliar faces. The meeting, we we're
told, would adjourn Wednesday. It
is annual. This year it has been fl-
vored with the best weather of the sea-
son. There are plenty shady places
for horses and an Enclosure where you
put horse for 10 cents, and another
place where your horse was fed for 20
cents. The drive from Johnson City
takes one through pretty woodlands.
and although in some places the need
of good roads is apparent, the ride is
not the least enjoyable part.

UNCLE REMUS TO THE RESCUE.

The Atlanta Constitution is fortunate in
securing Joel Chandler Harris C"Uncle
Remus'') as its chief editorial writer. He
is easily the first man of letters in the
South, and will live in literature longer
than any man the South has produced.
The team of Joel Chandler Harris, Frank
L. Stanton, Clark Howell, Roby Robin
son and Joe OH gives the Constitution .
Big Five on its staff not equalled by any
other Southern journal.
The initial editorial written by Joel
the highest Southern ideals and tradi-
tions, even though in giving expression
to these sentiments he is not in harmony
with the Constitutions position OH the
Panama question. From the editorial we
quote the following extract, worthy for
any Sunday morning sermon:
THE magazines and the newspapers
have a habit of talking about our civil
zatiOn and progress in way that is con-
fusing to say the least. Not only is the
talk confusing, out III Ills the mlldS OIL
the people with only the very vaguest
ideas as to what civilization and progress
consists in. They believe that
civilization is inseparable from progress
Whatever promotes the growth of trade
and commerce and whatever adds to the
wealth of the Individual and community,
whatever contributes to the greatest con-
venence and comfort of the people at
large is called progress, and progress
and civilzation-in the popular mind
must necessarily go hand in hand to-
getAer.
There was a time, and not so very
long ago, when the popular phrase was
civilization and enlightenment The terms
were ngeable-civilization meant
enlightenment and enlightenment meant
civilization. But they have parted com
pany. They have been divorced by the
materialists. and civilization has been
welded to what is called progress. But
it is an unhealthy and an illegal union,
and no real good can come of it.
Divorce civilization from morals, and
you have nothing left but a ridiculous
and impudent sham"

SENATOR SIMMONS SPEECH.

We publish elsewhere in today's paper
the full text of the speech of Senator
Simmons on the Panama treaty and the
resolutions with reference to it. We have
already printed good synopsis, with some
of the best extracts, but, in order that
the people of North Carolina may fully
understand the position of our senior Sen
ator. we print the full text of his speech.
He is an able man and has made the
strongest presentation of his side OF the
question. There is a sharp difference or
opinion in North Carolina with reference
to the Panama affair. Those who believe
in digging the Panama canal whether or
no" will endorse the position. Those who
put strict adherence to treaty obliga-
lions and the laws of the country above
ditch digging will not agree with him.
