any week night since the meetings
began gathered to hear Evangelist
Wilson on Shall we know our friends
in Heaven?" The evangelist plain
l. showed by many references from
the Bible that we would retain our
identity and power of thought. At
the close of the service seven respond
ed to the invitation and later two
more made the good confession, max
ing nine, or 70 to date. A large num-
Der were given immersion.
Tonight the evangelist gives an IL
lustrated lecture on the death, burl-

Jesus.

An Old Paper.

One of the most interesting publica-

man. who resides on FERGUSON street,
this city. 1t is the Southern Miscei-
lany and Upper Georgia Wing. pub

4th, 1847. From the fact that the
paper contains the speech of Henry
Clay, made before a mass meeting at
Lexington, KY, on Saturday, Nov.
18th, lS47, makes it all the more in
teresting.
At this time Mr.. Clay was a candi-
date for President of the United States
on the Wing ticket with John Mclean
as his running mate. The Mexican
War had been in progress some eigh-
teen months and in the course of his
remarks the Great Commoner portray

and property which might have heen
averted by the power of diplomacy
which could have been exercised and
an amicable adjustment of the Texas
matter brought about.

Taft and Brownsville.

Mr.. Taft is evidently tired OF being
held responsible for the Brownsville
affair. On no other theory can we ex-
plain Gen. Henry G. Corbin's publ1-
cation of President Roosevelt's tele-
gram from Porto Rico, insisting that
the order of discharge be executed
without regard to ''the yelling either
of the politicians or the sentimental
ists." President Roosevelt, too, must
be convinced that the publication will
help Taft, for he cheerfully declares:
Gen. Corbin's statement is absolutely
correct, and it was entirely proper
that he should make it, The clear
inference is that the President
and the other managers of the
Republican campaign are bit
nervous about the negro vote,
and are unwilling to take any further
risks in regard to it. The telegram
from Porto Rico is further interesting
as showing how our government is
run. Mr.. Roosevelt had, as usual, in
ficted the punishment latter due de-
liberation" Mr.. Taft, as responsible
head of the War Department, had
doubts about the matter, and wished
to look into it more fully; but his
wishes were coolly disregarded by a
President who rode over him rough
shod. If this is due deliberation in
the conduct of affairs, what would be
indecent haste?-N. Y. Evening Post.

APPEAL FOR FUNDS.
Mr.. Bryan Issues an Appeal for Cam.
paign Contributions.

paign Contributions.
Lincoln, Aug. 5.-Mr. Bryan to-
night gave out for publication the fol-
lowing appeal for campaign contr1-
buttons.
Wanted, campaign contributions
from citizens of the Republic who
favor these Democratic propositions:
Tariff revision by representatives
of the consumers of the products and
not by the agents OF those who make
exorbitant profits by manufacture and
sale of highly protected products.
Election of United States Senators
by popular vote, thus breaking up the
Senatorial oligarchy headed by Stand
ard Oil, which is svrong enough to
successfully resist all measures Of
fered in behalf of the public welfare.
Guarantee of all natfonal-bank de-
posits, thereby preventing all money
panics by giving all persons absolute
confidence in all banks.
Destruction of private monopoly
and the enforcement of law against
trusts by the people, who are oppress-
ed by the trusts and not by the agents
| of the trusts.
Publicity of campaign contribu-
tions before election day, so that the
people may know who is paying the
expenses of candidates, and why pay
ing.
Adoption of an income tax, because
it is just, and under it wealth may
bear its proportionate share of the
burdens Of the Federal Government.
'"The punishment of men who ma
nipulate railroad stocks and owner
ship; the encouragement of railroad
construction upon a businessl1ke
basis, and railroad operation with fair
returns in wages and profits to work
ers and owners on honest valuation
and honest labor, but not on watered
stocks and false bond issues Great
ed purely by exploitation.
The appeal closes with copy OF
the resolution adopted by the Demo-
cratic National Committee upon the
occasion of their visit to Fairview
July IA, declaring for publicity OF con-
tributions before election, limiting in
dividual contributions to $4,000, and
providing for the publication OF all
contributions above $1OO.
The Democratic advocate., 1908-08-14

1t is worth jotting down that some
of our esteemed Independent Republi-
can contemporaries are having hard
time in supporting Brother Taft. The
issue is personal, they urge-it is
Bryan or Taft And on the personal
issue they find that Taft is all right.
But the trouble is that the issue is
not personal lit is between two parties,
not between two men. Our esteemed
Republican contemporaries, however
independent they may think them
selves, who support Taft are really
supporting the things back of -Taft--a
wicked tariff, centralizing govern
ment, an extravagant administration
and the untold evils that have grown
up in a party too long in power.
The Democratic advocate., 1908-08-14

Tanners throughout the country
are organizing to demand that when
Congress shall take up the task OF
tariff revision it shall repeal the abb
surd duty of Is per cent. on hides.
There never was more indefensible
duty than that. At the demand OF
Senator Lodge and the Massachusetts
shoe manufacturers Mr.. Mckinley
backed down from such duty. But
under Dingley the packers carried
their point Lodge submitted, and
we believe that the only way of getting
rid of that tax now is to elect Mr..
Bryan and a Democratic House of
Representatives.
