MR.. GRAHAM'S DEMOCRACY
To Question it Something New
Under the Sun-A Tried and
True Democrat.
To the Editor of The Robesonian

To the Editor of The Robesonian.
We have not been paying much
attention to politics in this neck
O. the woods, but in recent issue
of your valuable paper we motto
ed a communication from one M.
A. Chisholm questioning Mr.. w.
A. Graham's democracy. Well,
that made us sit up and take no.
tice; that was something new un-
der the sun. If Solomon liv l
now and heard that about Mr..
Graham he would surely erase
that proverb of his which says
there is nothing new under the
sun. We have known Mr.. Gra-
ham ever since he began voting
and have never even heard such
a thing whispered about his de-
mocracy before. He did as much
or more in 1900 1--WE know wheret
of we speak, than any of the
six young men who had to ge-
George Mcleod to keep them out
of Jail, but he did it on different
lines and did not leave himself
liable to the law. By the way,
Why we're these young men sent
to Jail? Was it not because they
were law-breakers? Did not Geo.
Mcleod sit up till 3 O'Clock and
get his old greyhaired daddy and
b. Goodwin to go on their bonds,
because they had been doing some
extra hard work for him in Blue
Springs and got in a scrape about
it? We are glad to know there
is at least a modicum of gratitude
in the hearts of these six young
men and hope they will cast their
SIX ballots for Geo. B. Mcleod in
payment for value received, as
we are assured by some of the
Simon pure white not blue nor
that that is about all he will
get in Blue Springs.

do not think that there is a COM

that has made more improvement
than this. We will mention a
few good crops, or the owners of
them: Messrs. McPhail and

good cotton; Mrs. R. jamie G.

Messrs. J. A. Parish, J. H. Nor

The Unitarian Church Creed
MIR. Taft's Church.
To the Editor of The Robesonian.

'They maintain the unity of
God in a more restricted view
than is accepted by other de-
nominations. They hold that He
is a being Of infinite goodness, "
''and insist much on those at
tractive views of God which rep
resent him as a compassionate
father of the human race"
"They deny the doctrine of the
Trinity, and reject the proper
Deity of Christ and the atoning
merits of His death. They do
not accept the doctrine of the
native depravity of man, or OF
his justification Independent
through Christ's death alone" "
The older branch of the church
denies the inspiration of the
Scriptures.
The above is quoted from a
History Of the Religious Demon
nations cf the World" By Rev.
H. D. Northrop, D. D., anc
others, published by B. F. John
son & Co., Richmond Va.
Why maintin that Mr.. Taft is
a Christian when he subscribes
to a doctrine that explicitly re-
jects Christ?
