ATHENA. ORE. JULY 100

Seven hundred persons have been
converted in a series of revival meet
ings in Spokane by Methodist Evange-
lists. The Spokesman Review says of
the success of the meetings: "Even
if the conversions were only half that
number the churches would still have
reason to congratulate themselves on
the good that had been done. Every
man and woman protesting a change
of heart adds to the moral sentiment
of the city and, directly or indirectly,
will exert an influence on others for
the general good. 1t is somewhat
common remark that the conversions
made in emotional revival exercises
are not lasting and that in the course
of few months the effect passes
away. This is true in some cases, but
as rule it is found that the good i'm
pressions created by the ser rvices are not
entirely lost. there are lots of people
who do not approve the methods of
the evangelists and yet who are honest
enough to admit they reach many
who might not otherwise be brought
under religious influence, just as the
Savlation Army gets hold of many
whom the churches can not reach.
The revival services has long been
feature of the Methodist church. and
to it that body owes much of the great
numerical strength which it has in
this country. To scof at or belittle
the revival does nobody any good. 1t
may seem to some too sensational, yet
for the good that it unquestionably
does it should be admired.

The question of "can a man die and
still live" seems to have been settled
in Texas. There negro was hanged

after he was cut down and delivered
to his family for burial he came to. It
is said that the state can do nothing
as the man has been legally pronounc-
ed dead, and that suits the recent
bappee.

FOR SECOND PRIMARY
PROSPECT OF REPETITION OF
MISSISSIPPI CONTEST.

NEW ORLEANS, August 7.-Dispatches
from Jackson, Miss, say that a second
senatorial primary for John Sharp Williams
and Gov James K. Vardaman is regarded
with favor by many followers of both Sec
rotary Of State Power up to last night
still had ten counties from which to hear
the official returns, and the count up to
that point showed Mr.. Williams lead to be
only about 40 votes.
The smallness of the plurality which it
is now estimated the winner will have is
given as the ground for the belief that a
contest over the election is inevitable.
The ballot boxes are being watched by
workers on both sides.
The fact that 4 second primary must be
held to select the candidate for governor
has cleared the way for the advocacy of
another vote for senator.

Why SCOTLAND NECK ~ ALLOWED TO
VOTE.

n The town of Scotland Neck has
prohibition now. About the middle
of the session of the Legislature q
bill was introduced by Kitchin TO
put Scotland Neck under the pro-
visions Of The Watts and Ward laws
and allow that town to vote on the
whiskey question. The com mittee
reported the bill unfavorably, out
Mr., Kitchin still fought for his bill
on the floor of the legislature; how
ever, the bill was defeated. Later
Mr.. Kitchin introduced bill to In
corporate the town Of Spring Hill.
The committee reported the bill ia
vorably with an amendment to the
charter that no whiskey should ever
be sold in that town. Mr.. kitchln
then stated that If the rights of the
citizens were to be taken from them
by legislative enactment he would
withdraw the bill, which he did,
and stated that he would never ask
his friends in that town to vote the
democratic ticket again.
The democratic politicians are
great prohibitionists when they
think 1t Is good politics, but when
it doesn't mean democratic votes.
why prohibition gets the black eye.
For instance, after the democrats got
their heads together they allowed
the Scotland Neck bill to be again
introduced in the legislature, and IL
was passed with little opposition
and that town may now vote on the
whiskey question. Was this done
for the sake of prohibition, or was
it done for the sake of democratic
votes?
