strike at the fountain head. | have
not believed for long while that
we can ever bring about much real
reform until there is some reforma-
ton in the churches, and we will
never get that till we wake up to
the fact that we are being badly
humbugged by them. just look at
the sort of preaching we have In
one breath they tell us that God is
all-wise, all-powerful, or, in other
words, that He really is God; and in
the next breath they make him a lit
tie, weak, insignificant thing, who
can't save a sinner without the
devils help; and we, who read and
think little for ourselves, and then
dare differ with them, are considered
as being the very imps of hell, but
they will beg us imps for money

bread, or a poor starving laborer for
work Actually call on the devil to
help run the Lord s business.

Dear Friend: Enclosed please find
81, renewal for weekly.
[ have come across a sour preacher,
on account of the missionary edi-
torials that have appeared in the
Jeffersonians from time to time.
Now, to me those editorials are the
best religious sauce that [ ever dip
ped my spiritual battercake in. /
have never heard Of those who do the
contributing, and otherwise foot the
bills, calling Mr.. Watson a dis
gruntled politician. Such epithets
only come from the recipients,-from
those who live and grow fat off the
peoples misplaced confidence and
generosity. It's an old saying that
"charity begins at home" and that
holds good in religion, or should hold
good. | asked the preacher referred
to above if he had read Mr.. Wat
sons missionary articles; he said,
"No" Then l asked, "How do you
condemn without knowing9" "I
heard another say" [ replied,
"Hearsay is not good evidence.
Read for yourself, and you will find
the columns of the Jeffersonian open
to your reply" I intend to show
him what Mr.. Watson really did say.
Yours truly,

THE GRAVE YARD.
Near d Country Church.)

Thro' shadows. peering with eerie
eyes,
While dinhallowed ghostly fumes
arise
Like ftful mists, thro' the lonely
dell,-
And shrieking laughter, from the
depths of hell,
Breaks the wall of silence down
Revelberates the hills and wales
around!
Yet, horrid specters dance in glee,
AS the cold moon glimmers DER the
lea,
And shout,-till sleepers awake in
fright,
Shiver and timidly peer out at the
night,
Mutter and return to their lowly
bed;
"Alas!'' moan they, " It's a night
Of the dead!"
