PINE BLUFF GETS
 THE CONFERENCE
ALL PULPlTS OF THE CITY WILL BE FILLED BY METHODIST
 MINISTERS TODAY.
Bishop CandIer Will Deliver the Ser. mon at Central Methodist Church
 This Morning at ii O'clock.

The fourth day or the Methodist conference was opened by Bishop Candler by scripture reading from SSth verse of the fourth chapter of the gospel of St John, which was followed by a song, "Oh, For Heart to Praise My God"
 Prayer was offered by Dr. c. C. Golden, and this was followed by Bishop Candler's address to the con ference, which was a strong and elo- quent appeal to the ministers to live life worthy of their calling. The first qualification. he said, was to do Gods will and do his work. Jesus was full of desire to save souls, said the bishop. No bishop, perhaps ever had such profound attention as that given Bishop Candler. He is to the southern church what Benjamin liar vey Hill was to the state of Georgia. Bishop Candler loves his church and his Lord with an intensity and ardoT that only lofty and generous natures can know.
 Christianity he considers the high est attainment of mortal man. He has the ability of a lawyer. orator and statesman, with a humility of tho lowly Nazarene. These att9ibptes are subjected to the guidance of one grand sentiment-'the noblest is the salavtion of souls"
 Prof. Rennisline of Hendrix college, preached at three o'clock in the af- ternoon. The opening nymn, How Firm a Foundation, was rendered by the conference, after which Rev Dr. Riggin offered prayer Rev. Black read from Romans, 5th chapter, 5-l5 verses. Prof Rennisline, For the Love of Christ Sustaineth Me"
 He said we all have a personal in- terest in the death of Christ, because he died for all of us. 1 wish each CT us could believe that Christ died for me. He made it possible that any man on earth can get rid of sin, and i by his death he made it possible for any one of us to live without it. We cannot sin with impunity. God is not moel0ed. Whatsoever g. Man Soweth, That Shall He Also Reap"
 How r-any mems lives are like the satellite that just moves arouni the sun. They move continually around themselves. l care not how moral a man is or what he does, he is living for himself and not for Christ
 At the close of his splendid ser mon prayer was offered

LARGE MEMBERSHIP NOW
IN THE BOYS CORN CLUB
Members of the Club Have Gone to Work to Make the
Best Crops Ever Attempted By the Young Farmers
of the County-EnthuSiasm is Great

With an unusually large member
ship and an enthusiasm that is even
larger and more noticeable, the mem
bers of the Sumter County Boys Corn
club have gone to work to make a
banner crop of this important cereal
this year, one of which the county and
the entire section will be justly proud.
The membership of the club is much
larger than it has ever been, and
this is in itself a most encouraging
indication of the wide interest that the
young farmers of the county are TAX
ing in the work here. The corn crops
that will be made by these young
farmers before the season closes vii
be ones that will rank with any mad,
within the state.
There is a long list of valuabl
prize offered for the winners in tn
contest, so that the competition TO
these prizes will be spirited, muc
more spirited in fact than it has eve
been here. 1t will be only the bes

PRESIDENTIAL PRIMARY TO
Be HELD HERE WEDNESDAY
All Arrangements Completed For the Holding of the Pr
mary Both in the City and Every County Precinct
Interest Is Still SliQht

completed by the democratic exec
utive committee of the county.
The ballots. as has been stated be-
fore, will bear the names of Under
wood, Wilson, Clark and Harmon, the
four most prominent men whose
names have been associated with the
democratic nomination for the presi-
dency. The fight will be mainly be
tween Wilson and Underwood in this
county, it is believed, as these are the
only ones of the candidates who have
established headquarters in the state
for an active conduct of the CAM
paign in Georgia.
The ballot is to be voted by the
scratching of all names except the
one for whom a voter wishes to cast
his ballot This simplifes the voting
process and makes it the same as is
used ordinarily in balloting. It !;
very likely that only small vote vii
be polled, unless rain keeps farmers
from their work. In event of the lat
ter occurrence, it is very likely tina
pretty good vote will be rolled.
The interest in the primary her
is not very strong, and it has no
been at any time throughout the waE
ing of the campaign for the nomina
ton, if a campaign it may be called
1t is not believed that the interes
will grow much stronger now that tn
primary is practically at hand.

FORWARD EDITION PRAISED
BY BUSINESS MEN OF CITY
One Of the Greatest Agencies For Good That Has Been
Enlisted in the Service Of the People Of Sumter
County and This Section

On every side the Forward Edition
of The Times Recorder, which made
it's appearance Sunday, has received
the highest praise from the business
men and people generally of Americus
and this section. In addition to the
many complimentary remarks con-
cerning the edition which have been
heard here, a large number of letters
have been received from people who
have a good word to say in behalf of
the edition and who wish extra copies
of it.
Taken as a whole the edition is one
which has served to bring forth the
highest words of praise from those
who are able to judge of the merits
of publication of this kind. One of
the most helpful features of these
kindly sentiments is that practically
every one who speaks highly of the
edition also makes mention of the fact
that it is his intention to send a few
copies of the paper to friends. This
is the best manner in which the edi-
ton can be circulated, for it will then
go into the hands of those who wish
to see it and to profit by the mint of
information which it furnishes con-
cerning Americus and this section.
The following are few of the
statements made recently concerning
the Forward Edition, and what t
means for Americus and Sumter
county:
Everything that is essential con-
cerning Americus and this section
seems to have been included in the
vast amount of material that is in
-cluded in the edition." said Mayor j.
! E Mathis. This makes the paper
not only inclusive. but invaluable for
the widespread missionary work it is
to perform. 1t is an excellent paper
4 to help Americus now and for "
to come. Nothing of the kind has
ever been issued here before, and il
should serve as a standard for the
future. 1t is a work of art, and ty-
geographically and in its general make
up is one of the neatest and mos
carefully and effectively arranged is
sues have ever seen. 1t is satisfac
tory in every way and should prov
effective in advertising the city an
county as few, If any other mediums
have ever been able to do"

DETECTIVE HAS
ATTACKED The
REVOLVER LAWS
OF new YORK and CHICRGO
Detective Burns Thinks Them
Harmful

New York, April 29.-In a magazine
article, "The Public and The Pistol,
William J. Burns, the detective of Los
Angeles dynamiters fame, has attack
ed the revolver laws of New York
Chicago and other big cities for deter
ring law-abiding citizens from arming
themselves.
Common sense $astifies the owning
of good pistol by every respectable
householder" says the article in part
IF it were possible by the simple pro-
cess of the law to compel every honest
citizen to own pistol and know how
TO shoot straight with it, and at the
same time to disarm all criminals OF
pistols, there would be less work for
detectives to do. Any law which acts
as a deterrent to the buying of pistols
by law-abiding citizens is a detriment
to the suppression of crime. The crook
disdains any law which applies equal
ly to himself and to honest men and
finds any number of under-handed
means to obtain secret weapons.
'The records of the homicide files in
my New York office show that of the
homicides reported in the New York
newspapers, occurring in New York
and elsewhere, about so per cent are
committed with pistols. OF this so
per cent, one-half, or 25 per cent.
of tn etotal number of homicides are
done by criminals in connection with
robbery; 40 per cent. of all the mur-
ders committed with pistols are done
by criminals or men with bad records.
Of the remaining 10 per cent. the
records show that per cent. are
cases of self-defense. So apparently
there are but 5 per cent. of the homi-
cides committed with pistols. or ac-
tually IL per cent. of all the homi-
cides included in these records for
which it is possible to attach any
blame to the pistol.
Considering the pistols usefulness
in saving life by preventing murder
and in checking burglary, larceny and
other crimes in the homes of law-abid-
ing citizens, this 2 IL per cent is 4
pretty small peg on which to hang
anti-pistol laws that deter law-abiding
citizens from arming themselves.
''The fact of carrying pistol at the
time Of perpetrating any offense that
indicates unfitness to have a pisto,,
or at the time of arrest for such an
offense, should multiply the penalty
for the act committed. A few wun-tot-
ing ruffians sent away for years, in
stead of for months for seemingly pet
ty offenses, would do more to disarm
the underworld of pistols than to ex-
act a license fee on these weapons of
$50 each"

#Dawson by a team which goes from
Americus, made up largely of High

This team will go down to Dawson

game to be played there this after
noon. The battery for the locals will
be pretty strong one, and Robertson
land Monahan will probably officiate
lin this manner for the players from
Americus The Dawson bunch has Sc
|cured a strong team to play the locals
and asked that Americus send its best
team to play them.
There will likely be several games
played in the series, both in Dawson
and here, if the game this afternoon
proves as satisfactory as it is ex-
pected that it will prove. The teams
will likely be pretty evenly matched,
SO that no walk-away is expected in
any case. Next Monday week the To-
