Revival at CitrOnelle.

Chronicle, Ala, considered the
most beautiful town between St.
Louis and Mobile on the M. & o. Ry.,
but long known also for being stony
ground, it having giving the marble
heart time and again to Revivalists,
has at last had the hard crust of in
difference or whatsoever it may have
been broken by the Gospel pillow; so
much so as to incite the notice of the
press. The Mobile Register last
week contained a three stick refer
ence to it, while the Chronicle Cal
devoted about column to telling
the matter, from which we excerpt
as follows:
"Citronelle has generally been
considered a tough proposition when
it comes 10 having revival. The
class of people we have outside Of the
church are for the most part morally
good, law abiding, of the clean, de-
cent sort. They do not feel that
they are particularly bad. When a
minister speakes plainly about sin
and SHINING. they do not feel that
they are hit very hard, and especi-
ally would this be true Of dancing,
parties. etc.
Rev. John w. Mathison conducted
services at the NJ. E. Church for eight
days, and the Oldest inhabitants gen
orally admit they have seldom or
never seen such interest. Bro. Math-
ison is a live wire. He says and does
things. He is of the OLD fashioned
order. He believes in the doctrine
and breaches hell fire and damnation
from start to finish. All forms of
sin lead straight to It. Dancing,
cards, riding on trains on Sunday,
whiskey. Sabbath decoration, lying,
cheating, not living IN love and char
ity with your neighbor-the least of
these will keep you out OF the kingdom
only be wonid not put it that way
He never modifies. He'll is hell He
does not modestly speak of it as
outer darkness. All wondered at it.
Chronicle the quiet, peaceable, moral
town, that did not go in for revivals or
religious excitement, the town that
believed in and patronized dances
and card parties galore, turned and
for eight day, saw their social sys-
TEN torn to tatters and held in dis
repute and disgrace before their eyes,
and at last under the severest ar
raingment, uttered no word of pro-
test but rather noted approval. In
many ways it was a remarkable de-

coMpAN1oNsHIp HEALTHFUL.

THERE is wise old German saying
that Only a god or brute can
dwell in solitude. Men and women
need congenial companionship. Just
as your lungs, after using up al the
oxygen in a close room, need to be
filed with fresh, out-of-door ali, so
your mind needs contact with other
minds to get new ideas. There is
such q thing as mental as we'll as
physical hunger. Herders on the
cattle ranches of the West frequent
ly become mad from the isolation
they are forced to endure. Women
on lonely farms and in small villages
grow morbid and mildly insane, and
people do not guess that the cause
is want Of companionship.
1t is for this reason that woman's
work at home is always more trying
than that OF her husband, who goes
to his Office, sees new faces, and has
the friction that is produced by meet
ing other people. Even the farmer
has more intercourse with his neigh
Dor at market, or at the village gro
Gerry, than his wife, who may not see
any one outside of her own family
for weeks. 1t is a great mistake OF
young people to isolate themselves.
Even if their tastes lead them to a
quiet life, they should make 1t a
point TO cultivate few agreeable
friends

In speaking of the opening Of Me
ridian' S Twin Colleges, the Meridian
Evening Star says:
The Meridian Male College and
Meridian Female College opened their
session this morning with by far the
largest number they ever opened with
during their history. Students have
been gathering for ten DAYS, and in
fact about 60 or 20 remained during
the entire summer, who we're too far
away from home, several being from
the Island of Cuba, who are to remain
for several years. Others remained
to work in different departments,
some on the new buildings, and some
girls, to work in the cannery which
has been started in the Female Col
lege. These girls have canned sew
eral hundred gallons of vegetables
that were raised in the college truck
gardens.
The large, beautiful chapel was
crowded with students and visitors
till there was hardly standing room.
It is a promising set of students that
is gathered. at these colleges, judging
from their faces. They have gather
ed from the four quarters of the earth
until one can wonder whence came so
many young people The colleges
enrolled 729 students last session,
and 80 teachers and officers; and this
year the enrolment will be much
larger, reaching towards the thou
sandth mark. Nearly all the rooms
Ia both colleges are taken, and still a
great many are to come.
These colleges are great addition
to Meridian. Few citizens realize
how extensive are the plants :

Good Citizenship

One may be good republican or
a good democrat. a good Odd Fellow,
or a good Mason a good Protestant or
a good Catholic, but to attain the
highest standard and to command
the respect and confidence of all his
neighbors, he must first be good
citizen, regardless of these others,
and he may be this without afilia-
ting with either. Politically he may
be democrat fraternally be may be
a crank, while religiously he may be
a hypocrite.
TO attain the highest standard of
good citizenship we must he honest,
sober and charitable, and follow the
golden rule with unerring certainty.
The rest is easy.-Fruitdale Gala.

HUSBANDS AND WIVES.

A good husband makes a good
wife. Some men can neither do with
out wives nor do with them; they
are wretched alone in what is called
81 lgle blesseduess, and they make
their homes miserable when they get
married; they are like Tompkin S
dog, which could not bear to be loose
and howled when it was tied up.
Happy bachelors are happy hus-
bands, and a happy husband is the
happiest of men. 4 well matched
couple carry q joyful life between
them, as the two spies carried the
cluster of Eschol. They multiply
their joys by sharing them, and les
sen troubles by dividing them. This
is fine arithmetic. The wagon of
care rolls lightly along as they pull
together, and when it drags a little
heavily, or there's hitch anywhere,
they love each other all the more, and
so tighten the labor.

DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE
For Congress. Sixth District
HON. E. j BOWERS,
of Hancock County.

Ye editor has closely scanned over
our files running back to date first
touching the Sutton Principalship of
LeakesviIle's High School and we
find that our course, has been that
which a patriotic paper OF any town
should have been, where an effort is
being made to build up the school
interest and make the place an Edu-
cational center. We do not find that
we have cxtravagantly pulled the
Professor but our articles taken as 4
whole were directed more towards
upbuilding the school and reporting
the progress made along the lines Of
preparation than especially landing
the particular one who had hold Of
the Principalship helm.

This paragraph taken from speech
delivered by Gov. Folk OF Missouri
at the Bryan Homecoming reception
in New York eoncisely and correct
ly describes the political necessities
of the hour in fair America.
THE gospel of equal rights sounds
the death-knell of privilege and means
the uprooting of monopoly through
out the land. This gospel teaches
that it is more important that all of
the people be prosperous, than that
a few be very rich Tat it is better
that all of the people should have all
of the wealth than that all of the
wealth should be in the hands of a
few people. The other republics that
have lived and died during the light
of time through the ages have been
wrecked upon the rock OF privilege
But the hope for the perpetuity Of
this government was never brighter
than it is today, because the people
are awakened to the danger ahead.
As long as the people are aroused,
there will be only safety lights for
the popular government.
The ideal republic is one of charity
for all, of brotherhood among men, of
equal rights for all mankind. We
may not achieve the ideal at any
time soon, but we can strive for it
with the assurance that this endea-
vor will lead us up the heights of at
tainment until we are face to face
with the ideal and the true.

The News Beacon at Waynesboro
Miss. will contain the following no.
tice in this weeks issue:
Editor News eacon:-I have
been asked by many friends if I would
be q candidate in the coming election.
In answering them 7 beg to say
through the Beacon columns that
have decide to be candidate for the
Sta5e Senate in the Second Senate
rial District, which is composed of
Jones, Wayne, Greene and Perry
counties. l will make my formal an
nouncemeut in due season in the
newspapers in the district. In ma
king this announcement, however,
[ desire to say that am not unm.nd-
full of the responsibility connected
with the Office.
The property in the district is as
sessed at $4,000, 600. 90 or about one
tenth of the wealth of the entire
state, and nearly three times the
capitalized wealth of the state banks
in Mississippi, and lacking only
bout s14, 600, 000.00 bong equal to
the combined assessments of all the
railroads, express companies, tele-
graph and telephone companies do
ing business in the state.
In 1908 we poiled nearly five thous-
and votes in the first primary cleo
ton for the candidates for Governor.
Since that time our population, like
our wealth, has doubled. In the dis-
trict is located the largest city in the
state, and not least by any means a
citizenship unsurpassed for intelli-
gence and business activity.
The district, as yet, has only about
twenty-five thousand educable chill
dren who will get, for educatioal
purposes, less than $50, 100000 an
nually. We will pay into the treasu-
~ each year about $500, 100000. It
is readily seen what our losses will
be under the present methods of the
distribution of the school funds,
which is akin to graft. Last year
the state paid for the education of
1871, 91l children who never entered
school at all-nearly one million dol
lars-aud over 500, 000,0O Of it was
paid by this district.
I pledge my best efforts towards
righting these wrongs to our district,
and for this reason ] would rather
represent the district in the next
legislature than be elected to Con-
gress. l believe in q broad-guaged
craftsmanship; in progress and plen-
ty; .,ontentinent and happiness, and
I promise to be untiring in my ef-
forts to bring this to the people of the
district in the full meaning of the
term
I haze no desire to burden corpor-
ations, syndicates and foreigners
who own property in the district,
fo~ they came into possession OF it
honestly and have right TO enjoy il
under our law, but when they shall
have converted the pine forests into
billions of feet of lumber and added
millions OF dollars to their bank &C
counts. the sturdy yeomen should
have the stumpage lands where he
may build his home and become a
freeholder and permanent sup
porter of our free government and
to make his permanent abiding
place around which to gather the af-
fections of family and to which the
members may return, however far
they may go away.
