PREACHER IN POLITICS OF TODAY
Prominent Methodist Divine Says
Preachers Should be Inter-
ested in Politics

Rev. Lewis Powell, pastor OF
the Central Methodist church OF
Memphis, has the following to
say in a recent issue of the News
Scimitar on the subject: The
Preacher in Politics
The press has been unusually in
terested in the pulpit of late, and
they have raised a great hue and
cry against preachers in poll
tics" and have betrayed no little
ignorance of the great question of
politics which is the science of So
cial conduct, or in short, the
science and the art of right living.
The preachers in politics. Why,
yes, and what of that! Has any
strange thing happenedl He can't
help being in politics. Everybody
is in politics. No man can escape
unless he go to some uninhabited
island to live.
Whenever you hire a servant,
send your children to school, sell
yard of calico or buy bushel
of potatoes, you are dealing with
Others and that is politics.
There is a vast difference be-
tween politics and partisan politics.
And | am free TO admit that it
would be highly improper to In
troduce partisan politics into the
pulpit. The preacher would over
step his bounds by the discussion
of politics in the pulpit. Nor
should churches as such seek to
promote partisan politics. There
are two great political parties in
this country, as there are under
all popular governments, and they
are necessary to the maintenance
and conservation of u government
of the people, for the people and
by the people. They act as a
check and spur to one another.
These parties stand for certain
economies, doctrines and methods
in the administration of govern
ment, such as the tariff, the gold
standard, bimetalism, government
ownership of public facilities, etc
A preacher as citizen has right
to be a Democrat or a Republican,
exercise his franchise and vote his
sentiments the same as any other
American citizen. But it would
be highly improper for him to in
troduce partisan issues into the

AGENTS OF FARMERS UNION MEET
County Agents rlet With State
Agent at Little Rock and
Decid to List Cotton

Little Rock, Oct 21.-County
agents from thirty or forty coun
ties of the state met in the hall of
the House of Representatives at
the state house yesterday to dis
cuss with James [. Ellis, state
business agent of the Farmers
Union, plans for furthering the
work of the state agent and assist
ing the farmers in getting full
market price for all cotton sold by
them. Fhe meeting was called
some time ago by Mr.. Ellis for
the purpose of explaining to the
county agents his plan of woriy
The county agents responded "tt
to his call, and Mr.. Ellis stttri
last evening that he was we'll pleas
ed with the attendance.
1t was decided at the conference
to list all cotton to be sold by
members of the union with the
state agent. Samples of the cot
ton listed will be forwarded to Lit
tie Rock and will be held by Mr..
Ellis. He will be in position to
grade the cotton and thus keep in
touch with the county agents re-
garding the amount OF cotton thus
listed, and will be able to advise
at all times regarding the top mar
ket price for cotton of the grades
thus listed.
1t was decided to let the county
agents sell the cotton except in
cases where the price fixed cannot
be secured. In most cases it was
believed that if the county agents
were kept in touch with the mar
ket price of the various grades
they would be able to sell the cot
ton at their local stations at the
highest price. In case such prices
cannot be secured, however, the
cotton can be sold through the
state agent, who has samples and
list of the number of bales to be
sold.
The entire plan as explained by
Mr. Ellis was accepted by the
county agents, and Mr.. Ellis will
within the next few days be in pc.
sition to handle all the cotton list
ed with him Through his con
nection at the Board of Trade with
the large cotton buyers and with
the market he will be able at all
times to advise as to the highest
price for the various grades and
will be able to forward at a mo.
ment's notice any change in prices
of certain grades listed with him.

pulpit, and seek to promote either
the cause of Democracy or Repub-
licanism from partisan point OF
view.
But going back to the broad and
comprehensive definition of poll
tics as the science of social conduct
the preacher is in politics, and he
is an ignoramus who denies it, and
coward who tries to get out of it.
And whatever question is up
before a community that involves
righteousness, character and NOR
atty, the preacher has a perfect
right to speak, and it is important
that he should speak, and he
should speak with authority as the
oracles of God. And preacher
who fails to speak in a crisis of
corruption such as cOnfronts many
communities fails to meet a great
responsibility, and misses an OPP
portunity of doing immeasureable
good to the cause of righteousness
and good citizenship. And | for
one do not intend that subsidized
press nor a self-condemned and
corrupt officiary of political ma
chine in the name of political
party shall either deter nor gag me
from speaking out against any
thing that makes against righteous
ness character and morality. Con.
sequently whenever an open pol
icy" is advocated for city where
| am, you can count on me as a
preacher being not only against
that open policy, but against the
men who are for it. | believe
such men and measures a menace
and curse to any community,
and I'll say it from the pulpit.
I'll say it on the Bonded knee in
the quiet of my secret devotions,
and I'll say it on my ballot when |
come to vote! Is that politics?
Yes, but it is the politics that is
thrust upon many communities.
As long as lawless saloon men
and gamblers and grafters and po-
litieal criminals, and fraudulent
voters and prostitutors of the bal
lot box and unconsciceable thieves
who have robbed a community of
their American franchise exploit
their perfdity in a community |
shall have something to say, and
if that is what tile enemies of this
community call politics in the pull
pill, ma <e the most OF it. But
thank God politics in the pulpit
has brought something to pass.
What use have the people for par
tisan politics in the county and
municipal elections? 1t is absurd.
What difference does it make what
a mans party is in these county
and city offices, just SO he faith
fully keeps his oath and discharg-
es the duties of his office. We
want men who will be the servants
of the people and do what the peo-
pie elect them to do, and not to
dictate legislation and shape pol
icies. We do not care any more
about his party than we do about
his denomination, but we want
him to be honest, truthful and
faithful to the people.
