the 9Th of July 14t5. and Luther died
on February 18th, 1915, and during
this interim we find no historical men

by the victorious branch of the Huss-

battle of Muhburg in t547 the Bone

WHY EASTER WAS EARLY.

Why did Easter come so early this
wear is a question asked of the News,
and we will endeavor to make it clear,
although it is not an easy task. In the
first place, the word Easter is a sur
yiyal of the old Teutonic mythology,
and is derived from Eastre the Anglo
Saxon goddess of spring to whom the
fourth month, or our April, was dedi-
Gated. There have been many divis-
ions of the year into months, nearly ev-
ery ancient nation having a system OF
their own, but the many variations
which created confusion led to the adj
option of what is called the ecclesiasti-
cal calendar which is luni solar, regu-
lated partly by the sun and moon year.
So early as the end century OF our
era great dispute had arisen among
the Christians respecting the proper
time for celebrating Easter, which
governs all the other movable feasts.
The Jews celebrated their passover on
the 14th day of the first month, which
in the Roman calendar was March,
that is to say the lunar (moon) month
of which the fourteenth day either
falls on, or next follows, the day Of
the yernal equinox. Most christian
sects agreed that Easter should be eel
ebrated on Sunday, while others fol
lowed the example of the Jews and ad
hered to the Jewish custom, SO thu
Council of Nice in the year 325 ordain
ed that the celebration of Easter should
thenceforth always take place on the
Sunday which Immediately follows the
full moon that happens upon, or mex
after, the day of the vernal equinox
Should the 14th day of the moon
which is regarded as full moon, hap
pen on Sunday, the celebration O.
Easter was deferred to the Sunday fol
lowing to avoid concurrence with thu
Jews and those who followed the Jew
ish custom. The observance of thi
rule renders it necessary to reconcile
three periods, which have no common
measure, namely the week, the luna
month, and the collar year, which in
wolves a calculation of considerable
nicely. Prof. Barnard, of Columbii
University, takes a page OF very SINAI
print to explain the calculation. an'
after it is explained, it is about a
clear as mud three feet deep.
In 1889 Pope Gregory XIII abolished
the ecclesiastical calendar, as by vari
ance the yernal equinox was falling OF
the 18th of March instead OF the 2lst
and his system is still in vogue.
Hence, following the rule given, Z
6na Faster this year, we look in cal
endar to find the first full moon aftei
the vernal equinox. The vernal equi

He SUSTAINED THE PROHlBl
TION LAWS.

TION LAWS.
The great argument of local option
its is you can't enforce prohloltioh
laws. Down in Alabama they nave
been holding primary for governor
and iudges. and a local option man
won out for governor.
This shows that the whiskey men
were active, consequently in Etowan
county, where Gadsden is fiourishing'
Judge Lee, who has made a phenomln-
ally good record in sustaining respect
for prohibition law, was defeated by a
local option candidate. You can Z
keep a man in Office who entorces tne
law, especially when it decides whetn-
er you can make beast OF yourseif
ror not.
The following is the remarkable
statement of the defeated judge con
tanned in the Evening Journal OF Gads-
den:
Last night stood on my record as
an open book, but today the BOOK is
this morning by Judge Alto " Lee
who was defeated in the primary cleo
tion Yesterday. He made the state
ment in open urt, after he had as
sessed fine of S. on an Alabama City
man who had been indicted for puollc
drunkenness ''If you want to be safe
and sane" continued the judge, you
must carry quart in your pocket and
| if YOU wish to uphold the sanctity OF
your home you must have gallon III
H." The statement of the judge
created something of sensation IN
the court room 1t was not expected
that he would make any comment OF
reference to the result of the election
yesterday. The Judge appears to fee
that the people of the country are no
in favor of unfolding those who en-
deavor to enforce the prohibition law
Many of the prohibitionists OF thu
county take the defeat of Judge Lee
even harder than they take the defea
of Mallory. Judge Bilbro is an excel
lent and capable judge and Will III
the Office with credit to himself ant
the county, but nevertheless the prohi
bitionists feel that Judge Lee wa
'.knifed' because he made the penalt,
for selling whiskey SO severe. What
ever may be said of him, it can b
truthfuly said that he created health
respect for the prohibition law in p
towah county, and it was due to hin
J that the prohibition law was enforce
more rigidly in this county than Il
