TWO ATLANTA PREACHERS IN THE LIMELI6HT
Rrou0hton VS. Dixon and Bradley Engage IN eA'
Controversies Heated GubernatOra Campaign sioe

Interest in the heated gubernaSorlal
campaign, which wakes warmer 10
cally with each succeeding day, has
been temporarily side-tracked by TWO
new sensations involving ministers OF
the gospel, says an Atlanta dispatch.
DR.. Len G! Broughton. pastor OF
the Tabernacle, and Thomas DIXON
Jr., author of ''The Clansman" and
former Baptist divine, have Locked
horns in a heated dispute, and Rev.
James N. Snow, pastor of st. John
Methonist church, is exerting his en-
ergies in a seemingly futile effort to
establish charge of heresy against
Rev. Henry Stills Bradley, pastor OF
Trinity Methodist church.
The Bradley-Snow controversy
really occupies the center of the stage
as it is more or less serious, but the
Dixon roughton row is sufficiently
spirited to play a good, strong Sec
ond. In the former, the Trinity pastor
has so far won ou5, but DR.. Snow is
far from satisfied. He has in effect
charged the investigation, or trial
committee, which was composed OF
well known and popular Methodist
ministers, with whitewashing DR..
Bradley, whom he insists is guilty OF
heresy by his own statement.
The moral status of the theater sls
the bone of contention between DR..
Dixon and DR.. Broughton. The for
mer says the theater is all right, and
the latter claims it is immoral, and
the result has been the issuance by DR..
Broughton of challenge for joint
debate.
AS the general public does not take
either DR.. Broughton or Mr.. Dixon
seriously, the row between them is
amusing. Both seem to be after all
the notoriety they possibly can gain,
and both are pastmasters at the art
of Quitting" into the limelight.
Since his play was staged Mr..
Dixon has been touring over the south
with chip on his shoulder, defying
any and all to say aught against 'The
CIansman. When he reached Allan
ia DR.. Broughton whitfield the chip off
with single breath, and since both
have been engaged in saying things
about each other.
The effort of Rev. J. n. Snow to
have DR.. Bradley expelled from the
Methodist church has, however, Gre
ated real sensation, and the action
of the north Georgia conference re-
garding the matter will be awaited
with interest.

"ANTI-KNOCKER's" CLUB.
Coal Men Organize Society to En-
courage Square Deal.

Coal Mem Organize Society to En-
courage Square Deal.
President Roosevelt's principle of a
square deal for all recently found ex-
preston among the coal men of the
United States at the Great Northern
hotel in Chicago when more than a
hundred travelling statesmen represent
ing both anthracite and bituminous
branches of the industry met and or
ganized the Order of Ko-Koal says the
Chicago Inter Ocean.
The purpose Of the order is to pro-
mote good fellowship, to discourage the
practice of knocking" and to encour-
age a square deal between the mem
bers Of the coal trade. Secretary Ar
thur NJ. Hull believes that the member
ship list will number 500 before Jan. l.
officers were elected as follows: Mo
doc, George NJ. Barclay; baron, Frank
H. Collins; barOnel, H. B. Dupuy; bar
onette, c. F. Lennon; pictor, Arthur
NJ. Hull; mazumer, A. f. Boos; gazook,
L. Romanski; pitboss, Sam NJ. Stanley;
acolyte, A. B. Lennon; swatta, c. R.
Shabino; spotta, j. A. Eggenberger.
The organization is designed to play
the same part in the coal trade as the
Hoo-Hoos In the lumber trade.

baron KOmura at Harvard.

When Baron Komura was student
at the Harvard Law school, in the class
Of TT, his classmate and warm friend,
Baron Kaneko, urged him to go into
society, many hospitable Boston doors
being open to them, says the Boston
Herald. But Komura preferred, as he
said, to devote his leisure to the study
of American character in American
books and to observe American life out
side of conventional society. Emerson
was his favorite author and from his
writings he adopted his motto. These
and other things that are being said Of
this quiet diplomat and silent man with
keen observing eyes" are interesting
to know. 1t is evident that KomfIra Is
going to wear well upon closer &C
Quaintance.

MORE FLAWS IN THE LAW
THE NT'MICHAEL BILL is TRAY
ELING A HARD ROW.
Another Batch of Objections Calls 1t
into Question. Courts Likely to Be
Called on to Determine 1t.

Called on to Determine 1t.
More question is being raised about
the validity and constitutionality OF
what is known as the McMichael ed
ucational bill, passed at the last ses-
sion of the legislature and making
provision for district and county cleo
tions on the question of local taxation
for schools.
Attorney General Hart was called
on to construe certain features of the
law a short time ago, and now other
provisions are called into question.
Chief among the provisions to which
objection is now raised are the fact
that the local school tax is to be col
lected by the county school superin-
tendent through the secretary of the
county board of education, and the en-
tire omission of railroad property
from that which is to be taxed for this
purpose.
The state constitution provides that
all tax officers shall be elected by vote
of the people, but the county superin-
tendent is chosen by the grand jury
and the secretary by the board itself
The question is, then, can these Off
Gals not elected by popular vote col
lect this tax at all? Could not the tax
payers refuse to pay it on the ground
that the law was unconstitutional?
The failure of the bill to make any
provisions for the collection of taxes
on railroad property may lead to
further litigation 1t simply provides
that the school tax shall be levied on
the property shown on the county tax
digest. The property of railroads and
other corporations does not appear
on the county digest, because it is re-
turned to the comptroller general.
Should the measure prove legal in
other respects it may be the railroads
will refuse to pay the school tax under
the bill as it stands, and the matter
would probably get into the courts.
Under the circumstances it begins to
look as if the McMichael law will find
it's way into the courts for construc-
ton before all of its provisions have
been carried out.

The Latest Fad.

Lately women have taken to stand

the fireplace after luncheon or dinner
instead of sinking gracefully into the

however, no attempt at mannishness,

fad, which advises us to stand for at

SHOW FUNNY THINGS
,,or;cans Drink Millions of Pounds
More Java Coffee Than Produced.

Statistics sometimes show funny
things. For instance, a recent report
set forth the fact that Americans, the
greatest consumers of coffee, used IN
brewing their amber beverage last year
3, 500. 900 pounds of genuine Java and
Mocha coffee beans. And now comes
along another report with the infor-
nation that Java and Arabia together
last year exported only about $4,000
pounds of coffee to the United States.
Still, there can be no question about
genuineness of the extra millions OF
pounds of genuine" Java and Mocha
that we drank. But where did it come

One of the meanest men in the coun-

not to serve negroes at the tables, and
when one of them had been indicted
for refusing to serve a negress he re-
fused to go on her bond. The girl car
ried out his instructions, and he left
her to shift for herself when she got
into trouble in consequence of it.

interested in the New York cotton
market to the extent of one million
dollars as the result of j. L. Buffers
trip over the state in the interest of
the gigantic pool that is being formed

He is a member of Sully's firm and

Gainesville daily sun. (Gainesville, Fla.) 190?-1938, 1905-02-19


Some pal1isans of final causes have
imagined that the moon was given to
the earth 20 afford it light during the
night. bat IN this case nature would
not have attained the end proposed,
since we are often deprived at the
same time of the light OF both sun and
moon. TO have accomplished this end
Il would have been sufficient TO have
placed the moon at first IN opposition
20 the sun ana IN the plane OF the
elliptic nc distance from the earth
equal 60 the one hundredth part Of the
distance OF the earth from the sun and
TO have impressed on the earth aud
moon parallel velocities proportional to
their distances from the sun. In this
case tive moon. being constantly IN OPP
position 10 ,he sun, would have de-
scrlbed round It an clllpse similar 60
that of the earth These two bodies
would then constantly succeed each
other aud. as at this distance the moon
could not be oclpsed, its light would
always replace that OF the sun.-La-
