WHITE PRIMARY AT STAKE

The result OF the election next Tues
day will have considerable bearing on
the white primary in Georgia 1t is
possible the people are ready to de-:
stroy the primary election system in
our state, but we hope not. The dan
ger is too great, however, to be ignor-
ed. If the primary Is to be meaning
less, it will fall to pieces of its own
weight, and if the people wish it pre-
served it is up to them to preserve it.
Two years ago Mr.. Watson led a
bolt after having taken part in the
primary, and was followed by thou
sands of his friends. He took part
this year in the presidential primary,
and was elected delegate to the Bal.
timore convention, being represented
there by proxy. He recently charged
that Woodrow Wilson had joined the
Knights of Columbus, Catholic fra
ternal order, and that he would not
vote for him. The charge proved to
be absolutely baseless and cruel in.
justice to Governor Wilson. But that
has not satisfied Mr. Watson and he
has announced his determination to
vote for Roosevelt because Roosevelt
"defied the pope" MIR. Watson liz.
nores the fact that Roosevelt, while
president, did more for the Catholics
than any other president since the gov.
eminent was founded, his large ma.
iority In 1904 being due in great
measure to a circular which enumerat.
cd the things he did for the Catholics
while filling out McKinley's term
One Of these was to turn over the
Philippine Islands to them, another to
favor them in the Indian schools, an
other to appoint Catholic member oil
his cabinet, etc.
Mr.. Watson's reason for not voting
for Wilson having vanished in air
should cease to be a reason. The
Georgia delegation voted for Wilson
and it cannot be claimed that there Is
the slightest faint upon his title to the
nomination. In all that has been said
and in all that has been done Wood
row Wilson shows an absolutely clear
bill of health. There is no reason tt
bolt his nomination except the reason
which Caesar gave when he refused tc
go to the Roman senate-''the reason
is in my will will not co.
We have no disposition to coerce
voters. We wish every man to be free
We favor the white Democratic prima
ry and wish to see it preserved as the
best means of settling our differences
in Georgia, but we know that IL 1t Il
to be undermined by boiling, 1t cannot
stand. There is an election, the regu
lar election in October, and another
in November, from which there can be
no boiling, and in these the direct vote
and not the county unit plan must pre-
vail Mr.. Watson is knocking the
props from under his own pet theory
and his county unit plan may give
place to the plan already provided by
law-the direct vote in the regular
election.
We have no more at stake thar
anybody else. 1t remains to be seer
how many who took part in the pri
mary will join Mr. Watson in boltinl

courage of his conyictions. He
avails himself of the most mod

we are accustomed to hear in the

His teaching in word is schol-

His friends here IN his native

know of his good health, happi-

Bible Class For Adults.

Bible Glass For Adults.
Written for The State by George Arm
strong Wauchope, Professor of Eng
lish at University of South Carolina.
Last October Rev. DR.. r, e..
Pearson, professor of English
Bible in Columbia Theological
Seminary, was invited by the
session of the First Presbyterian
church to organize and teach a
Bible class for the men and wo'
men Of the congregation. We
had meyer had live and success
ful Bible class for adults, and the
small one meeting in connection
with the Sabbath school had
languished for many years, with
frequent change of teachers.
DR.. Pearson undertook the
work with his accustomed skill,
energy and enthusiasm. The
result has been one of the most
notable Bible study classes in the
country. 1t has been meeting
IN the auditorium of the church
at 10 o'clock every Sabbath
morning with an average attend
ance of about 100 under the
most adverse weather conditions
kno wn here for 25 years. Among
the mbers are professors and
students of the Columbia Theo-
logical Seminary, the University
and the College for Women,
many Christian workers from our
own and other churches and bus
mess as we'll as p1 OCCASIONAL men
from the city.
From the first the interest and
enthusiasm of the members has
been marked, and the influence
of the class upon the city has
been noteworthy. 1t has, in
fact, been far the most stimulat-
ing. profitable and successful
Bible class I have ever known.
DR.. Pearson in the handling of
the class and in the teaching of
his subject, the Pentateuch, has
shown himself a singuIarly skill
full leader and profound Biblical
scholar.
His remarkable success is due,
I believe, chiefly to
1. His analytical method of
treating his subject (using a
blackboard with topical outlines,
subdivisions, keywords, charts,
etc.
2. His constant harmonizing of
the Old and the New Testa-
ments.
3. His striklngly original ap
plications, now humorous, now
eloquent, of the great Bible
truths to the practical questions
of the day.
4. His power of stimulating a
fresh interest in frst-hand, per-
sonal Bible study.
5. Above all, the evangelical
and devotional spirit which ener
gizes his teaching to a remarka
BILE degree.

rare and brilliant gifts as "a

this publication. to secure some
OF the value of cotton for the
producers has resulted in a hold
ing movement that has kept
enough cotton off the market to
materially advance prices. We
think when the buyers who are
short the market gets busy to
fill their March commitments we
will see them bid the market up
on themselves to point where
1t will mean ruin to many Of
them. This we regard as righte-
Gus retribution.
Of course this paper is unpop,
ular with this element Of cotton
men, as it is with the splnners
and all other enemies of high
priced cotton. All right. boys,
we are bulllsh on the situation
because we think cotton at II
cents per pound the cheapest
thing in the world, today, COM
pared with all other things, and
the onlv disaster we think could
happen to the market at this
time would be for the Heflin or a
similar bill 10 pass Congress.
Eyen the rankest bear will
admit that the preparations for
a new crop are not all reassur-
ing. while the sales of fertilizer
to the individual consumer are
almost nil, as compared with
former years-last year espe-
cially. No matter what price
cotton may reach a5 planting
time, the Southern planter will
not forget the sting of the price
he received when he had to sell
last October and November.
Neither will he soon forget the
price he is now paying for corn,
meat and mules-that is, when
ever he buys mules, very few
being sold as compared with last
year.
This writer has just returned
from the Atlantic states and
knows whereof he speaks when
he says that the reduction of
acreage will be larger in that
section than anywhere else.
Don't be alarmed at heavy
port receipts; this cotton is all
sold, and is a heavy movement
on it's way out of sight and into
consumption.
We repeat our advice. Freeze
to your spots and buy July now
It is good for II cents, and that
in the next two weeks. Don't
make the mistake of selling your
spot cotton and buying futures
against it. If you have the cot
ton hold to 1t. If not, do the
next best thing and buy July.
It will be like getting money
from home with the express
charges paid. NUF SED.
