brew in hellO
What pains did the Rev. Towson take to
assure himself that he was telling the truth
about DR.. Paul Wakefelds lecture? How
could he possibly have known what the young
missionary had said in distant state,-Tow-
son being In Georgia at the time? Men who
have the proper regard for the truth, and the
proper conception of how gentlemen should
conduct themselves, do not rush into print,
accusing others of a ''malicious and vindictive
attack, without being certain of their facts
Brother Corey came into court, asking that
the unsupported word of DR. Wakefield be
taken, in denial of those two reports Nv
long experience as a lawyer caused me to sus-
pect the veracity of Wakefeld's denial. Why?
Because If it had been possible for him to
have done so, he would have produced
signed statement from some of the good peO-
pie who attended his lectures. His failure to
show even SO much as letter to that effect
made me morally certain that poor Paul had

HAVE YOU GOT TO SAY ron YOUR
SELF? You slandered me in the Advocate,
and in your pamphlet. You declared, II dare
to write down as an absolute fact that Paul
Wakefield did not say there are more women
missionaries degraded by Chinese men than
there are Chinese converted"
Your "absolute fact has been smashed by

IT'S UP TO CONWAY.

Now that the city council has passed an ordinance organizing the city of Conway into a water works improvement district, the proposition of securing system ol waterworks is put squarely up to the real estate owners of Conway. What they will do with it in the next few weeks will develop.
 If all the property owners ot this city who have been clamoring for for waterworks for many years will voluntarily sign the necessary petition, the organization ot the district can be completed within two weeks, and actual construction can be begun before the end of the calendar year.
 Nobody ought to have to be wheedled or begged to sign the petition for waterworks Its neces- sity is so self evident that 1t argues it's own case.
 Different ideas are ol course en- tertained as to the best methods of procedure. Some object the mu nicipal owner ship idea and prefer granting franchise to private corporation. But this field Is evil dently not very inviting to capital or it would have long since been entered If we depend upon a private corporation, we may wait another decade and still have no water.
 Some people want to know from what source the water will be ob- tained. This is a question of en- gineering that can be determined only by experts competent to pass upon the proposition. It has been deemed best to complete the or ganization of the district and then in an organized capacity proceed to investigate every detail in con nection with waterworks as rela- ted to the local situation. In other words, the idea is to organize the district and let the council elect a board of commissioners to solve the problem of securing water.
 It's big job to secure the sig

Alter a careful study of the situ- ation, we have concluded that there are two ways i'll which Con- way can rid itself of the weed nui- sance. The first way, which would be only partially effective, would be again to permit stock to run at large on the streets. But we do not believe anyone wants Conway to take such a backward step. The other way would be tor the city to cut the weeds on both streets and sidewalks. or fiom one property line to the other. Of course, it will be said that an or dinance now in force requires the property owner to cut the weeds along his own sidewalk. But the or dinance is not enforced and is very difficult of enforcement. It would not make big hole in the city revenue, and by adopting this plan every tax. payer would bear his share of the cost of removing the weeds.
