WON'T RESIDE TOGETHER.

1t was Rev. Sam Zones who said that
religion and whiskey can't stay in the
same hide" 1t begins TO appear that
religion and politics can't stsy in the
same hide, also. Just as soon as q man
protesting religion begins TO allow poll
tics to enter and predominant his feel
ings and ambitions, religion begins to
hunt for an exit. There ia nothing
more prejudicial to the success of q
Christian life than intense politics and
political office seeking. In the heat Of
ambition men do and say things that
create strife, bitterness and enmity,
undoing the work of the preacher, and
pure and undefiled religion suffers.
How many men in the same churches,
worshipping at the same altar and par
taking Of the same sacrament, are at
enmity through partizan politics? We
dare say the reader can count large
number of them. Men allow their hates
engendered by politics to predominant.
They boycott one another in business
and socially, and look with suspicion on
every thoughtless act as personal and
every careless word az offensive.
Politics are all right properly bridled,
but it soon runs away with mans
judgment and better nature, and
wrecks friendships and drives religion
to seek more congenial companionship.
The charity that thinketh no evil, does
not prevail, but animosity drives at a
reckless speed.

ROBS THE SMALL COUNTIES.

Under the new primary election plan,
which will govern the approaching pri-
mary, the selection of nominees for
state house offices will be by popular
vote, and not by county vote, as in for
lner primaries. In other words, the
total vote of the state will be CONSOLE
dated, and the candidates receiving a
majority Of the ballots cast will name
all of the candidates from all of the
counties to the nominating convention.
Under the old plan each county select
ed its own delegates, The new plan
places the power in the hands of the
majority of the voters; the old plan
placed the power in the hands of a ma
lority of the counties, irrespective of
their population or voting strength =
Savannah News.
Yes, but it destroys the unit system,
and gives big counties like Fulton,
Chatham and Richmond greater voting
strength, in deciding nominations, than
twenty email counties.

WAREHOUSES;
IN PEMBROKE
Are Burned Monday Even
ing at a Very Heavy
Loss.
ESTIMATED AT $4,000.
Insurance $4,000 On Build
ings and Contents--Clarks
vile Millers Lose.

Two warehouses burned in Penn
broke Monday about $50 p. m. The
one in which the fire originated was
owned by w. w. Garnett and Mrs.
Lizzie Williams and rented by A. O..
Doraty & Co. 1t contained200 tons of
hay and 5000 bushels Of wheat, with
no insurance on building but So, 500
on the contents.
The other was owned by l.. Nc
Combs and contained 10000 bushels
of wheat with $500 insurance on
the building and $4,000 on the con-
tents.
The wheat was owned by the Dun
lop Milling Co., of Clarksville. The
loss on wheat was about $4,000 and
on hay about $1,000.
The buildings were frame and
were worth together about $500.
In addition to the wheat and hay,
the Dority & Co., building contained
a car load of hogshead slaves and
other articles of small value.
The origin of the fire is not def
nitely known. Workmen were in
the Dority warehouse up to five
o'clock and the most plausible the
DRY is that some Of them were smok-
ing and threw down match. The
fire was discovered soon after the
men left.
Pembroke has no fire company
and the combustible nature of the
buildings and its contents soon put
the Dority warehouse beyond hope,
and although a bucket brigade
worked hard the fire soon spread to
the McCoinb warehouse adjoining.
Dority & Co., had another ware
house across the street, which was
saved by hard work.
