THANKS FROM KENTUCKY.

Dear Kind Friends: How Mrs. Cook
press to you the loving gratitude that filled her
poor lonely heart when your letter came today?
May the dear loving Jesus bless you always, is
her prayer How He will smile you for your
help to one of His sOrely afflicted ones. For [
was a stranger and ye took Me in; hungry and
We fed Me-" so our Savior said and He loves those
who keep His commandments Mrs. Cook would
like to write you herself but is entirely helpless
she went blind when her little three-year-old boy
was born, and cannot see to read or write. But
Jesus knows what is in her heart and He will
reward you. She has been helpless entirely since
she was seventeen and is twenty-five. She
lost her husband before her baby born; she
was taken out of her little home and carried over
four hundred miles in a baggage to her old
mothers home. Her father died two years ago.
Again thanking you for your dear kindness, she
will bid you good night, and please remember
that away here in Kentucky a little helpless
woman is praying for you hourly. She is your
sister.--MRS. MAGGIE L. COOK Jacktown, Ky.

BROTHER PHILLIPS is DYING.

Dear Daddy jim Here is a letter from Bro. G.
+. Dodson that hope you will find space for, and
that the people will read it and think of it. Bro.
Phillips is confined to his bed now and I think
MS llfe's journey is nearly done. [ thought when
wrote the other letter that it would be the last,
but the Lord has spared his life up to the present.
That letter touched the heart of Bro. Dodson who
felt it his duty to send the poor dollar.
Every dollar that comes to Bro. Phillips does
lot more than if you had sent it to China Japan.
Care for your own people first and provide for
them, and if you have anything left, you can send
it to the heathen-E F. YOUNG, Mathews, Ga.
Mr. e. F. Young Mathews, Ga.-Dear Sir and
Brother Find check for $500, which please pass
to Bro. Phillips or his family. Please get it to
them at once. Your account of the poor brother
should touch the heart of every true Southern
patriot. The poor little girl that you spoke Of

child, it's burning shame to see how we of the
South are neglectng flesh and blood, and
going crazy China and other foreign coun-
tries. Please let me know if my little offering

TOM LOCKHART's SUGGESTION

You will find in the FLetters From the People,
a communication from Tom Lockhart, wellington,
Mo-, with the suggestion that those who are not
able to purchase stock in The Jeffersonian Pub
fishing Company for cash, do so by letting
their commissions subscriptions apply to this
purpose. Tom is old friend of ours a shut-in
for quarter of a century, and so we mention his
plan, which is good one, on this page.

RESOLUTIONS OF COP|AH CITIZENS

attended by all classes and races of
the county, including the business
men of the towns, the land owners,
and the laborers, both black and white
of the county, to consider the labor
and agricultural problems now vex-
ing this county, the following resolu-
tons were adopted:
Resolved. That while we were de-
pressed and largely demoralized by
the boil weevil in our county, upon its
first appearance, our success under
these conditions the past season has
convinced us of our ability to grow
cotton and make it pay. with the boil

pursuing the policy of making every
thing to eat at home and by raising
our own mules and horses, and with
the aid of our cattle and sheep. the
food crops which have been so abun-
dainty grown this year, that any man
who will labor faithfully can grow a
cotton crop that will be to him clear
surplus, and which will pay him more
real and clear money than the larger
crops of cotton we used to grow when
we bought everything to eat on credit;
and we do sincerely believe that this
county today so far as the farmers
and laborers who are out Of debt are
that they are in better f.
nancial condition than they have been
for thirty years.
Resolved. However, that in orderl
to succeed we must all exercise the |

expect is ten years Imprisonment

these extreme crimes of melting re-
bell1on. 1t is not generally believed
that the extreme penalty will be in

upon him.
