THE WAY WITH HER.

There's just no use in talking,
When woman starts to cry
She can have most any bauble
That pile of gold can buy.

And melted into tears,
Some chap would try to scoop

If it took a million years!

Results of Prohibition in Georgi

Results of Prohibition In Georgia
This year is the "off" year in
the meeting of State legislatures,
but next year. when the legisla-
lures of most of the States will
de in session, a large amount of
restrictive Legislation may be
looked for. If prohibition is ev-
en- fairly well enforced in the
States which have adopted it,
other States will be inclined to
follow their example. It is, of
course, too early to Judge of re-
suits but the first reports from
Oklahoma are of a marked fall
ing off in the police courts, and
from Georgia of increased steadi-
ness of Negro laborers. At At
lanta, last January, there were
but sixty-four cases of drunken
ness before the court, as com.
pared with 341 in January, 1907.
In January and February, 1907,
there were 3,074 arrests for all
causes; in the corresponding
months Of the present year only

Country's Good.

Filipinos Needed Him and He Wouiu

ON the Supreme Bench.

Mr.. Taft epitomized the organic Jaw
of his own life better than he realized
when he once wrote to a gutter
man who held his personal fears anu
interests above those of the Govern
ment that had reposed in him an I'M
portanttrust-thee xecutiono OF great

nj a man is Taft?" And here is an
illustration that shows how Mr.. IalI
applied the rule to himself ,unue5
circumstances when, had he alioWe9
himself to deviate from it, he could
not have been held even ethicaily re-

criticisms l had heard of the RepuD-
1ican candidate and his creed. In re-
cent years the Democratic candidate
has interlarded his well-paid Chau-
tauoua lectures with Sunday sermons
before religious and semi-religlo9s
societies. It seems that he has maze
the most of this influence IN TINS
campaign and I was curious 10 as
cover. on my arrival here, Wnethsr
there was support from the church
and semi-religious elements IN tne
country for the Republican nominee
Bishops Opinion of Taft.
NV arrival in this connection could
not have been better timed. AS en-
tered the office of Mr.. Tatt,s private
secretary Friday 1 saw Bishop D. Y;
Hartzell. of the Methodist Episcopal
Church, emerging from a conference
with Mr.. Taft. The Bishop, knew,
has episcopal supervision over the
work of his great church in AFRICA.
He has been so engaged for the past
twelve years and has met and formed
the acquaintance of many leading
men. not only in Africa, but in Europe
and America. His acquaintance ana
influence within the Methodist Chureh
is second to those of few men, as ne
was for fifteen years an officer OF the
society which founded and now main
tains a system of institutions OF learn
ing among both white and colored
people in the Southern States. de
came to induce Mr.. Taft to make a
sDeech in Chicago before a society OF
which the Bishops son, Rev. NJ. u
Hartzell, is president.
It seemed odd to attempt to inter-
view a churchman of his promince on
a nolitical question at the haadquar-
ters of the Republican candidate, put
7 asked him for his view of Mr.. Tart
and the support of him by Christian
neople. He answered very readily.
AThe American people are to be
CONGRATULATED upon the fact that
whether Mr.. Tat or Mr.. Bryan IS
elected President of the United
states. they will have man at the
head of the Nation who is not only
clean in moral character, but whose
men and speech and example are al

The BISHOP LuOu5lLb AOA a AHSA-A 49,
and then continued: ION some theo-
logical points I differ from both. AS
a good Presbyterian, suppose MT.
BRYAN assents to the doctrine OF 'di-
vine decrees,' which teach that from
ali eternity it has been fixed who
should be saved and who should be
lost. l do not so read Scriptures. Mr..
TAFT. I understand, is one of the Ed
ward Everett Hale type, believing
that Christ was a divinely perfect
man, whose precepts and life on earth
are the key to mans salvation in time
and eternity. With the church, l be-
lieve that in that perfect man dwelt
the divine nature.
APPLYING his discussion in practis
cav way, Bishop Hartzell continued:

This is the way in which l heard
the pastor of a Methodist Church IN

with a layman on the train coming
over here from St. Louis, says the

paving due respect to the cloth OF MS

that he should not support MI tart

JOKES ON BRYAN.

Bryan the Evergreen by his peren-
NAL hunt for an issue that might
land him in the White House, has
suggested material for the jokesmiths
to have some fun at his expense. It
is now getting rather old to say, "Oh,
I'm going to vote for Taft this year.
/ can vote for Bryan any old time.
A newer joke is out by which a
man is made to say: Il am going to
vote for Bryan. He told before that
If I voted for him we would have
prosperity. Well, l voted for him
and we had prosperity"
Still another says: i am going 10
vote for Taft. That is not to say that
nv children when they grow up may
not some day vote for Bryan. My
children or my grandchildren as to
Bryan can do as they wish when the
time comes to vote"
The reason for making Bryan again
the leader of Democracy more than
likely lies in the thought that the
forlorn hope of Democrats centres on
four years hence when a mere desire
for a change might show itself and
the results of this year will effectually
shelve the Nebraskan for all time.
