" On March % l took the $50 train

of Commerce in that city, He got a

Judge Lansden declines to enter the
primary he is pleased to say was or
dered by Gov. Patterson. 1t is pre-
sumed he would have been delighted
to enter one under the Bullock plan
that he helped to frame, and that was
recently declared unconstitutional. He
is so non partisan that we are surprised
that he knew which political party to
ask for office. By the way, it might
be mentioned in passing that he is the
same Judge Lansden who was candi-
date for Supreme Judge two years ago
in the gubernatorial primary and was
defeated by Judge Bell. There was no
objection raised then to uniting the
judiciary with the political offices, but
perhaps some people believed then that
Senator Carmack was engine enough
to haul them all into office.

BAPTIST CHURCHES
WILL UNITE.

A meeting of the Roam Street Bap-
fist church was held last night to dis
cuss a proposition looking to reuniting
of the Baptist churches in this city.
After considerable discussion a vote
was taken and a large majority OF
those present voted to consolidate, and
the minority gracefully accepted the
result like Jeffersonian democrats.
The Main Street church will take ac-
ton soon and if favorable it means
that one prosperous church will be
continued and handsome edifice will
be built soon in which to worship.
The Main Street property of the first
church is now very valuable and will
probably be disposed of and the pro-
ceeds used as a nucleus for the new
church.
