SIO4 RAISED ON PROGRAM.

The Church of the Holy Cross here
which has been laboring under some
Indebtedness for a year or more, has
reason for great rejoicing. In prepar.
ing a program for "The Old Maids
Association" which takes place at the
Hay Long College next Friday night,
under the auspices of the Episcopal
Church, about ninety inches of space
was offered to the advertising public,
which was taken up at once, netting
the cause $10400 for the space alone.
The band of people composing the
membership of the Episcopal Church
here, are very grateful to the liberal
public for the much needed funds.

adviser of the union combination to
the contrary Notwithstanding.
No Charter as a Church.
Rev. James E. Clarke, editor of The
Cumberland Presbyterian, was asked
where the paragraph stating that the
General Assembly would have no con-
troll over property in case the creed of
the church was changed, was to be
found. He stated that the
church has no charter as a
church, but that this paragraph
which has been reported as be-
ing from the church charter, is really
from the charter of one of the numer
GUS boards of the church, ''the Board
of Trustees of the General Assembly
of the Cumberland Presbyterian
Church, which is a Kentucky corpora
ton" 1t was chartered in 1854 for the
purpose of receiving and using, for the
benefit of the church, any funds which
might be placed in it's hands i he Ken.
Ici y act chartering this BOARD sets
forth that it shall be controlled by the
General Assembly. In other words, il
gives to the General Assembly the
power and privilege" of controlling
this board. 1t is to this that the para.
graph quoted by Gen. Russell applies,
and not to the whole church. The
Cumberland Presbyterian General AS
sembly can control this Kentucky
board unless that assembly comes to
be made up Of persons holding views
differing from those held when the
charter was granted. Then the control
of this board will be vested in those
holding to the doctrines held at the
time the board was organized. An in
teresting feature about this paragraph |
is the fact that when this Kentucky |
board was organized the church did |
not have it's present Confession of |
Faith, but used as its Confession the |
Westminster Confession (revised.) In
1883 the present Confession was
adopted. Now, through the union, the
church goes back to the Westminster
Confession (revised), which was its
creed in 1854.
When asked if this Boat of Trus-
lees held all the property of the
church, Mr.. Clarke replied mo in
Iced. In fact, it probably holds less
than any other board The
otal amount reported n its hands is
about $4,000, representing the re-
,eipts of over sixty years Nearly half
If this amount has long been consider
ID by the church as worthless, for 1t
consists of bonds which have been re-
undated and on which no interest has
'een paid for many years. Whatever
lecision might be reached with refer
nee to this particular board would not

JOHNSON CITY STAFF
STRONG FOR CARMACK
GIVES ITS REASONS AND SAYS
1T BELVES THE MAJORITY
OF EAST TENNESSEE DEM
ocRATS FAVOR HIM.

The Cleveland Banner Of last week,
which has taken no part whatever in
the pending Senatorial fight, comes
| out boldly and announces itself for
the reelection of the Hon. Edward
w. Carmack as United States Senator.
In this connection the Banner says:
I'm taking this position the Banner
is not actuated by any selfish or mer-
cenary motive, but because after ma
ture deliberation IT has arrived at
the conclusion that the vast interests
of the Volunteer State will be best
served by his reelection.
Again, it appears to be the I'M
written but universal law of the Ten
nessee Democracy to give a second
term to the official who has been faith
full to his trust and proven to be ef-
ficient. Measured by the high stand
ard of Tennessee, Senator Carmack
has satisfactorily met all these re-
quirements, and for the people of his
State to deny him t second term
would be but to disgrace, shame and
unjustly humiliate him before the
people of the entire country.
Senator Carmack is one of the
most brilliant men in the Senate and
one of the hardest workers. He has
won his spurs through his ewn ability
He has been true and faithful to his
party, and should not be ignominious-
ly dismissed.
For the reasons aforestated, and
for many others which will be touch
ed upon later, Senator Carmack
should be rejected"
The STAFF views the Senatorial con-
test exactly as does the Banner. We
have no personal feeling against
Gov. Taylor; we have no personal
favoritism for Senator Carmack. We
are viewing each solely as candi-
date for the Office of United States
Senator. The overruling considera-
ton with us is in the welfare of the
State of Tennessee. Gov. Taylor is
the prince of lecturers; but he is not
equipped for the exacting role of a
United States Senator. Tennessee
and the South need their very strong
est men at Washington. Carmack has
proven himself to be the intellectual |
peer of any member of Congress. In |
our opinion, it would be an egreg- |
ious error to retire Carmack and re- |
place him with a gentleman of con-
coded inferior capacity and practical |
ly without experience at Washington. |
The STAFF is published at the home of
Gov. Taylor, where he resided for |
many years. We have no animosities |
toward him; we entertain no feelings |
except those of good will; but view
ing this matter from the broad stand
point Of our obligations to the State
we cannot favor his candidacy at the
expense Of the public welfare.
Moreover, there are multiplied thou
sands of East Tennessee Democrats,
indeed, the majority of them, we be-
lieve, who entertain the same views as
those which are guiding the conduct
Of the STAFF.

RELIGION OF THE
SOUTHERN ARMY

Will Allen Dromgoole in a special
article in Saturdays Nashville Banner
on the Religion of the South and OF
the Southern Army" makes the fol.
lowing interesting mention of Nath-
an Bedford Forrest and Rev David C.
Kelley:
Gen. Nathan Bedford Forrest was
one of the thunderbolts developed by
the civil war. lie was a tiger in the
fight. When he joined battle he was
angry-mad with the highland he
fought to kill He slew more men with
his own hands than any officer in
either army of which there is any
record. He is popularity regarded as
a goddess man of blood, without pity
or remorse.
Yet, though he was a lurid swearer
and prodigious fighter, Forrest in his
moral code was Puritan of the Puri-
tans. Life to him was but a bauble
compared with personal honor and
integrity. A womans virtue was as
safe in his keeping as behind the
walls of monastery or in the temple
of vestal virgins. He discharged with
curses and vituperations one of his
best and most beloved officers be-
cause he did not have a proper regard
for woman's virtue. He did not
know the difference between whisky
and brandy, calling them both 'liq-
uor," and he died a staunch church
member and a loyal citizen of the
United States.
While not religious man himself
during the war, he always saw to it
that proper provision was made for
services.
DR.. McNeilly relates of him that he
held the highest regard for DR.. D. C. |
Kelley, his chaplain land would often |
say to his men:
do as Kelley does; not as / do"
And" added DIR. McNeilly, Kelley |
was a beautiful character and one
of the grandest of men; he stuck to
his religion grandly."
DR.. Kelley held perhaps, of all men |
in the army, the position best calculat-
ed to an ultimate knowledge of the
character of Gen. Forrest
DR.. Kelley has ever been known as
a man of strong convictions and also |
a man fearless in the expression Of |
those convictions. When the war
came he was opposed to the doctrine
of secession, believing that fighting
for constitutional rights within the
Union was the better course. He
avoided all discussion of the issues
until Fl. Sumter was fired on. Then,
seeing no other issue could be made,
he entered the army, not as a chap
lain, but as a private soldier; believ-
ing that he could better serve the
cause of religion If he shared it's dan.
gers.
Verify, there were no towards
among the Southern armyshrdluuuu
fought, suffered and died just as the
soldier fought, suffered and
died.
DR.. Kelley was made captain of a
cavalry company and ordered to Mem
phis to equip his company. There he
met Gen. Forrest, who had orders to
form a cavalry regiment. When or
ganized with battalion Forrest was
made Lieutenant-C Colonel and DIR. Kel.

A Sad Case.
A sad case was called

A sad case was called to the
attention Of the Independent
man the other day wherein Mrs.
Wilson, the wife Of a man lying
in jail for pigging one day, is
nearly starved together with her
two little children. The man
provided for the woman the best
he could when he was out of jail,
and fell from grace for one day,
when he was caught conducting
a blind pig.
The law does not think of the
wife and little ones at home, and
sent Wilson to jail for quite a
long term. The wife became i'll
and could no longer earn any
bread for herself and little ones,
and being too proud to beg, was
in a needy condition when Off
GERS found her. The woman
lives in leaky old shack and
suffered untold agonies. There
are some things that don't ap-
pear just right. The Independ-
ent does not favor pigging in t he
least, and has no excuses to make
for Wilson.

busy as Minot. In Winnipeg the
people have gone luny over real
estate, everyone investing. The
young men have quit buying ci-
gars that they might invest their
odd dimes in real estate, and go
round the streets begging cigar
cites. Even the proprietors of
the shoe shining parlors talk
nothing but real estate and the
street car company is kicking be-
cause so many people walk now
in order to save their money.

old settlers will prepare a his

when out on the bleak prairie at
night, and alone, he sat down
upon his wagon tongue with
snow falling from the four winds
OF heaven, while his horses were
eating a little flour, someone
having stolen his feed. He was
wondering how he was to pass
the night when along came Mike
Muir, Clouse and Bill Snyder,
who shared their two by four

peaceab]y till morning. At no

looked better to him than did
that little tent on that stormy
night.
