over there say that it has been a long

shall do so. Mr.. Lewis has the mat

When John the Baptist, the preach
er OF the wilderness. and one of the
worlds great reformers, was arrested
by Herod. whose anger he had arous-
ed for his exposure of his wickedness.
time was afforded him for long and
serious thought.
For nearly two years the great
Judean preacher and prophet of the
advent of the Messiah was immured
in dark and dismal cell.
Thus cut off from all intercourse
with the world and moralizing upon
the inevitable reflections that are
born of solitude, he like all persons
who think seriously and soberly about
profound affairs, began to be harass-
ed and hedged about with doubts.
He had proclaimed the Nazarine as
the promised Messiah and the hope
of Israel. He had pointed him out to
the throngs that waited upon his min
istry as the Lamb of God that taketh
away the sins of the world" and with
this announcement upon his lips and
a sublime faith in his soul, he ad-
ministered to him a sacred rite, he
had baptised him in the river Jordan
and proclaimed him to the people as
the anointed one, whose shoe lat
ches he was unworthy to unloose."
But, alas, John the Baptist had been
in prison two years, and no promis-
ed redemption had come to the people.
Surely it was time for doubt But
the prisoner still had faith--a faith at
times wavering and fleeting-but be-
fore he would make a full surrender of
nearest mart is as important as to
the Nazarine to obtain satisfactory
evidence of the truth of his mission.
The question these messengers put
to him at the instance of the prison
er was thrillingly dramatic and pa
thetic;
"Art thou the Christ, or shall we
look for another"
The Great Teacher profoundly ap-
preciated the doubts that had come TO
John and sent back to him a reply |
that has evoked the comments and !
commendation of the critics of the
centuries.
He told these messengers TO go
back to John and tell him what they |
had seen and heard. How that the
blind were cured-the lame healed /
the deaf restored-( (supreme evidences
of the truth of his mission) b,'t above /
all he told them to bear back this /
testimony:
1.-The poor have the gospel preached

This was the seal and verification.
the sublime proof of the divinity of
his mission.
Why should he eonsort with the
poor, the lowly, and the humble and
preach to them:

A Dangerous Law.


The Florida School Exponent says
that the opposition to the Buckman
law excites laughter and compares
those who oppose ii to the three tail
ors of Tooley street"
The oppression of the common peo-
pie, by taxation, or otherwise, has al
ways been laughing matter to the
lordly few and their henchmen.
The Buckman law. taxes the labor
ing and industrial classes of this state
hundreds of thousands of doIlars-but
to the lordly few it is matter of
mirth.
The Buckman law eXpends $500, on
each son and daughter of the aris-
tocrats who receive instruction by vir-
tue of its provisions, which benefits,
by its restrictions, are denied the
common people, but at this state of
affairs the hilarity of the editor of the
Exponent, and the lordly few with
whom he associates, knows no bounds.
Only a little over seven dollars a
year is expended on each pupil in the
schools of the common people, and to
the lordly few and the Florida School
Exponent this fact is nothing but
mirth- provoking.
Many of the schools of the common
people are taught in shacks and shan
ties while the children of the lordly
few must have a million dolalr edifice
in which to receive instruction, and
this disparity calls for prolonged and
uproarious laughter from the lordly
few and their mouthpiece the Expo
nent.
When the lordly few laugh at the
opposition to the Buckman law, they
laugh at the reasons which inspire
that opposition.
Laugh on, till you split your sides.
1t is your time now. But, another day
is coming when your laughter shall
become howls of chagrin and your
smiles dry grins.-Jasper News.

ART THOU THE CHRIST,
OR SHALL WE LOOK
FOR ANOTHER?'
LITTLE
SERMON ETTE.
BY
THE EDITOR.

/ preached to the rich. but to the poor
this message came as deliveranee
and benediction, for we are told that
"the common people heard him glad
ly."
There were other evidences of his
divinity. He did not lead the worldly
and strenuous life. He did not slay
birds and beasts for the mere matter
of sport. He did not buckle on a
sword, like Josephus, and other lead
ing Hebrews, and win applause that
so easily comes to the military hero.
He did not become a politician and
seek public Office or a kingly crown.
Waving these things away from him
he said to those who questioned him:
Render unto Caesar the things which
are Caesars and unto God the things
that are his
The ordinary man, the natural man,
no man less than the supernatural,
would not have done this.
How is it today? To whom is the
gospel preached? Have you ever been
in a big city? Have you seen its great
temples? its frescoed walls its NIGH
ty organs and it's choirs of many
voices? How do the worshippers in
these great edifices compare with the
throngs that waited on the Great
Teacher on the hill of Olivett and the
plains of Galilee?
Why has the Salvation army grown
so large? Why has its drum and tam
BOURNE so quickly become a familiar
sound in all lands?
Plain enough. Human nature is the
same. 1t is because those in the
streets. alleys, hedges. slums and by
ways felt that they could hear mes
sage from the members of the Saliva
tion army in their rags. And this
army was raised up in an opportune
time. for like John in prison, many of
these unfortunates Of the earth were
beginning to wonder and doubt and
ask the self same question that John
had asked:
art thou the Christ. or shall we
look for another?'
And then, again. another thought
was beginning to take shape: I'VE ask !
for bread and are given a stone!"
What does a man with no shirt want I
with a ruffie?
What are formal prayers to those
who are suffering the pangs of cold
and hunger?
The Salvation army has not only |
given spiritual comfort, but bodily aid, |
and by so doing. has, in little while.
like Elijah's cloud. no bigger than a I
mans hand. belted the globe and its
good deeds are sung in every tongue.
And not so much as it once did does
the cry go up:

Editor L'EngIe's Side of the Story

Editor Tampa Tribune; Your story
of my difficulty with ~ d. Coving-
ton is misleading and untrue. If you
care to read the correct story, here it
is: "In discussion Of the differences
between the Sun and the turpentin-
ers, Covington called me a liar.
thereupon struck him several times in
the face. In a clnch resulting l was
knocked back against an automobile
(the affair occurring in a garage) and
fell, pulling Covington on top of me.
As Covington fell, he saw the starting
crank of the automobile lying on the
floor by the machine. He picked this
up and struck me five or six times in
the head and face, the first blow rem
dering me unconscious, the other
blows bruising my eye and my mouth,
and my head. l never made the re-
nor did Covington help me To my
feet, nor did 1 strike him when he was
not expecting it. Covington, himself.

the crank, although some of his over

the state, rates based upon the South
ern Classification, which was used on
the shipment from Augusta, Ga
| I make this assertion for the rea-
son that all of the railroads used the
Southern Classification prior to the
creation of Commission and the
adoption by them of Classification.
Therefore Mr.. Brown saved on the
carload of mattresses shipped from
Jacksonville. under our classification.
II cents per 100 lbs, or s1.70 per l.
600 lbs, and for the minimum car of
"a. 600 lbs, $4O.SO. That is more than
he and every member Of his firm and
family would contribute to that part
of the state tax which would go to-
ward the support and maintenance of
a Railroad Commission in fifty years,
at a low estimate.
1t seems to me. Mr.. Editor. that it
would be useless for me to continue
this illustration any further, for it is
50 plain that he who runs may read.
1t is rather strange that c. VI. B.
Jr. wishes the Commission abolished
because it has compelled the F. E. c.
Ry. to charge him lower rates than
he would otherwise be paying.
1t does seem that a great railway
system like the Florida East Coast
would realize how unjust it is to
charge great developers and builders
of a community like c. NJ. B. Jr such
increased rates on their interstate
business.
The members Of the Florida Rail-
road Commission did not make the
Federal Constitution and therefore are
not responsible if it stands in the way
Of their affording relief to the ship
pers on business originating outside
Of the state, or destined to points out
side of the state. and it strikes me
that c. M. B. Jr. might read the u. S.
Constitution with profit. = In the State
or North Carolina, it is made the mea-
sure of mans qualification to vote,
that he be able to both read and write
the Constitution of the L. S, and un-
derstand its provisions.
Now, Mr.. Editor as c. NJ B. Jr., is
so solicitous of the poor taxpayers in
what they are compelled to contribute
toward the maintenance of the Rail-
road Commission. does it not seem /
that he would have advised his faith
er, Honorable c. NJ. Brown, late Sen |
ator from the goth senatorial district, I
that he should not have put the poor |
taxpayers to the enormous expense !
which he did in his endeavor to main
tain his seat in the Florida Senate, |
which he was clearly not entitled to,
as was evidenced by the unanimous I
report Of the Committee of Senators +
who sat upon the investigation. This
contest cost the people of Florida ST.
1870. as follows:
For Attorneys Fees ....e..... $4,000
Witness fees. .......... 766.7O !

c. NJ. Brown, mileage from

c. NJ. Brown. thirty-one days

State of Florida.
