ATTENDED WITH MUCH SUCCESS

The revival services at the First
Baptist church will close on sunday
night.
They have been in progress for four
weeks. Daring the greater part of that
time they were conducted by the pas
tor, O. P. Gilbert, unasSisted. During
the past few days the evangelist
Earnest Willie" Upshaw has render
ed valuable aid. Mr.. Upshaw will con-
tinue with Mr. Gilbert until the close
of the meetings.
On Tuesday night the congregation
was the largest that has yet gathered
at any of the week night services, and
included many men. The talk was a
straight forward one, such as Mr.. Up
shaw usually gives, with well put les
sons, and some highly eloquent pas
sages that carried an inspiring mes
sage to the hundreds of hearers who
crowded the church.
The meeting for young women on
Tuesday afternoon was the most re-
markable held in Americas in long
time from the points of attendance and
interest manifested. The address was
of spiritually helpful nature and bore
fruit in four confessions.
Miss Kate Gloer, whose sweet solos
have been so attractive q feature of
the services, left for Bessie Tiff College
yesterday. Quite party of friends ac-
companied her to the station.
There have been eight additions to
the First Baptist church during the
services, while probable 25 in all have
protested conversion, some of whom
will probably also unite with this
church.
On the third Sunday in April the re-
vival services at the Furlow Lawn
Baptist church will begin. 1t is not
improbable that after they lclose one of
the other churches of the city will con-
tinue the movement,

CONGRESSIONAL AsPlRANT.

We reproduced last week an ar
ticle from the Jackson Wing with
reference to the candidacy of Hon.
JEFF D.. Newton of jackson for
Congress. We reproduce the fol-
lowing editorial from the Carroll
County Democrat, which applies
to the aspirations Of the genial
gentleman from Madison County:
"Mr. Newton lives in Jackson,
is engaged in the newspaper bust
ness, and is man held in high es-
TEEN by his people. He is a self
made man and did pretty good
Job, for jeff Newton is fine fell
low and worthy of the highest con-
fdence. Just what figure he will
cut in the Congressional race can
not be told at this stage of the
game. 1t is too early to make a
safe prediction, for no one can tell
who will be in Thea race or how
many before the final show down
comes.
eff Mr. Newton has the solid
support of Madison County he will
prove strong factor. Will he
have that support? 1t has been
rumored in this connection that
General Ben j. Howard, also of
Jackson, Will be a candidate, and
in that event Madison County
would be divided. Both of these
men are strong in Madison County.
"The names of Congressman L.
W. Sims of Perry County, General
j. W. Lewis and Tom G. Rye Of
Henry County, and Judge Levi S..
Woods of Henderson County are
being mentioned as probable can
didates, aud even if these all enter
there still may be others, and in
that event complications would
arise making very uncertain the
outcome"

ACTION TAKEN BY OUR BANKS.

AC lion AIKEN BY OUR BANKS.
Following the action taken by
the banks of New York, Nashville,
Memphis, st. Louis and elsewhere
the banks of Camden have adopted
the system of paying everything in
checks until the present currency
famine is relieved.
A conference of bank officials
and our leading business was held
Wednesday, and it was unanimous
ly decided that it was the onl y rea-
sonable and sensible thing to do
under existing conditions. The
banks of Lexington, Jackson, and
other towns in Tennessee adopted
the same system Tuesday.
Our banks are in the peculiar
attitude of having more funds to
handle the crops than ever before
and large balances at their CORE
spondent banks, but unable to get
currency. 1t is thought the situa-
tion is only temporary, and in a
few weeks at most the situation
will resume it's normal condition.
This action has been taken by
all banks in the country to protect
their depositors, and our people
who have business with the banks
are glad to see this conservative
action taken and their interests
safe-guarded.
The action of the banks will work
some inconvenience for awhile, of
course, but in the end will prove
to have been so beneficial that all
will see the necessity for the action
taken by our banks.

that several years ago when beef was much cheap

the same concern and received $35 for her He
would have received $40 for the COW he tried to
market recently had he decided to take advantage

Frye in his statements that cattle growers

their proximity to markets in the prices we
pay for the STOCK" for does not Mr.. Frye himself
state that he has paid IL cents pound on the
hoof for beef in California, and paid more than
the middle western packers for cattle bought in
Omaha. The northwestern packers seem to be
generous when they come in competition
with the eastern packers. Here the coast,
where there is little competition, it is evidently
different.
