BabtistS, What Do You Think
of This?

At the age of fourteen, [ was clerking in a
store where whisky was sold That was awav
back yonder IN 1870, when barrooms were
open III every town and village and when
there was little prohibition sentiment in Geor-
gia.
[ attended a revival at and joined the Bap-
tIst Church, In Thomson. Was baptised in
the pool, in the creek, at cold Sweetvater"
near Thomson
Even at that age, [ had my own notions
ABOUT right and wrong, and [ went to the
owner OF the store, and told him that he
would have to hire some one else to sell
whisky
From that day to this, I have been. not a
good Christian, but a loyal supporter Of the
Baptist Church. So favorable an opinion Of
me was held by that very prominent Baptist
minister, the late Rev. E. A. Steed, that he
went to my father, and told him that he
ought to send me to college. The panic of
1888 had about ruined us, and Father ex
pressed some doubts as to whether he could
raise the money for my tuition and board.
Mr. Steed explained that [ could be board
ed IN the mess-hall at eight dollars per month:
and that he could have me entered on the
Mercer endowment, which gave free tuition
to such young men as were poor and desery-
ing.
by the aid of this Baptist preacher, I OBJ
tanned the benefit of two years schooling at
Mercer University Then, my father was no
longer able to pay my board, and [ had to
leave college,-with what heaviness of heart
is known only to my Maker.
Going to Screven county, to teach school
for living, was invited by Temperance
Society to address it, and accepted the invita-
ton. Later, my noble old friend, Rev. DR.. M
J. Golfer, came along, on one of his rounds,
and made speech, in the open air, at Little
Horse Greek Church; and after he had finish
ed his appeal for Prohibition, [ was called
for, and followed DR.. Golfer, in the same line.

WhO Is This Man?

Who is it that is trying to stir up strife be-
tween the landowner and his tenant?
who is 1T that wants to prejudice the farmer
against the merchant?
Who IS it that seems to hate every man that
wears clean shirt and lives in good house?
Who IS 1t that is endeavoring to lure the
farmers OF the South into the Republican
party, through the ship-subsidy route?
Who is 1t that is about to place the South
ern landowners Nv THE POWER or THE
NEGRO SECRET SOCIETIES, 6y hook
ing up aciM President Gompers?
Who is it that is decoying the farmer into
demanding that the Union Label shall be on
every article Of merchandise that he pur-
chases?
If the farmers were to do this, the millions
of non-union workers, all over this country,
would have to do one of two things:
CD Join the Labor Union, or
(2) Starve.
Ii all the laborers join the Union, there
would be, on the one hand, the Capitalistic
Trust; and, on the other, the Labor Trust.
Beto0een these taoo moizzstones, the farmer,
the merchant, the professional man, the una-
organized public a0ouzd be crushed.
Can't you see this? FOR GODS SAKE,
PUT ON YOUR THINKING-C CAP!
The man [ have in mind, is demagogue
of the most dangerous type. His ambition is
boundless; his vanity, colossal.
Whom does the cap it,?
The men Of the Labor Unions are just hui
man. Nobody that ever lived could be safely
trusted with despotic power. The best Of us
are full of defects. Among the bread win
ners as among the capitalists, we will find all
sorts of characters good, bad and indiffer-
ent.
You see what Capitalistic Trusts do to the
unorganized public don't you? They are>ro6-
bling you Of f0e millions Of dollars every dag,
over and above eight per- cent. clear profit on
the money invested. How are you e going to
mend matters by aiding President Gompers
organize Labor Trust?
Don't you know that you'd be giving the
negroes club to brain you with?

IT'S MONEY SHE WANTS
Guggenheim's Answer to His Wife,
Suit to Dissolve Divorce.

Chicago, Oct. 6.-An answer was filed
in the circuit court here today by Will
liam Guggenheim, member of the wen
known New York family. to a suit
brought to dissolve the decree of di-
vorce, granted his former wife, Grace
B. Guggenhein, in 1901
The suit was begun last June after
ex-Mayor Edward +. Dunno, former
judge of the circuit court. who entered
the decree. had protested that the court
had been imposed upon inasmuch as
neither party to the suit was a resident
of Illinois, when the case was heard by
him.
In the document filed today the
charge is made that the suit to dissolve
the decree of divorce was brought by
the former Mrs. Guggenheim in the
hope of extorting large sum of money
from Guggenheim. The answer also
sets forth that the court has no right
power or jurisdiction to modify or an
nu1 the decree after the expiration o.
five years from the late of the entry OF
the final order.
