attention of our readers to the an
nouncement elsewhere in this issue
of The Chronicle Of Will s. Cor
bit, who is candidate for the
Office Of County Trustee. While
he has never held county Office,
Mr.. Corbitt is well and favorably
known to great majority OF. the
voters of Benton County as a good
business man. Having been urged
by many friends to make the race,
he has met with the most fattering
encouragement in all parts of the
county, and we do not hesitate to

When darkness has again gath
cred and all is quiet except the
tread of the faithful wife, as she
clearsaway the dishes, I will try to
write all of you another letter.
Today has been busy one in
Murray. It is county court day,
which means great crowd of all
kinds of folks-mule selling and
buying, horse swapping, and the
Lord only knows what else.
Will someone ask II. B. Pafford
if he was ever in Kentucky.
I'have some, hard work-some
hard battles to fight-at home
among my kindred and plsymates,
but by the help of Him who said,
fear not, neither be dismayed," L
mean to conquer.
Ehave driven over thirty miles
and preached five times in thirty
two hours. Is that too much? No,
we can't call our lives dear unto
ourselves as long as there is man
in sin or man to die. Will all nv
friends who read this take them-
selves to prayer for great year
for us all ), forget the world for
moment and ask God to deal gra-
ciously with us this year.
But you will please excuse any
thing of trouble that may seem. to
be in this letter, for all the world
is not a graveyard there are many
flower gardens along LIES path
way-howers of the rarest and
choicest kind-the beautiful Red
Rose of Joy, the Pink Rose of
Friendship and the White Rose of
Love-that scatter their sweet fra
GRANGE and gladdens the heart of
all within their glorious realm.
This world is such beautiful
world, SO many kind words to be
spoken, SO many kind acts to be
performed, that one wants to live
always.
While | am writing this L am
praying, that this may be the most
glorious year that the churches of
Benton County have ever had, and
to my brother preachers l would
say, pull hard and long for a great
year. May the glorious day dawn.

witnessed-a demonstration of her.
oism thatstands unsurpassed in all
history. Those sour pessimists
who have insisted. that materialism
has driven love, chivalry, fidelity
and self-sacriGce from the world
have but to consider the acts of
those brave men and women who
gave all in their devotion to the

shock to the human family must
have been, needed to revive faith
and confidence. 1t has brought to
everyman and woman a sober mo-

of these same men standing upon
the sinking vessel looking into each

their duty.
It is a magnificent thing to die
in battle under. the stimulus of q,
compelling patriotism. 1t is
magnificent thing to fall beneath
the unavoidable fate. But is it a
a greater thing to accept death as
choice rather than die coward.
No master of language will ever
embalm, the heroism of those menE

No poet will sing fitting requiem

1t is claimed by some people who
appear to be sane on other subjects,
that properly to instruct a sober peo-
pie in ways of sobriety, you must IL
cense the selling of liquor in the
town. The man who originated that
idea ought to have it stuffed and ex-
hibited at the Panama Exhibition,
and ne should be leaned up against
it as part of the exhibit.
Il do not know one good thing
about the saloon. 1t is an evil thing
that has not one redeeming thing in
all its history to commend it to good
men. 1t breaks the laws of God and
man. 1t desecrates the Sabbath; it
profanes the name of religion; it de-
files public order; it tramples under
foot the tenderest feelings of hui
mainly; it is moral pestilence that
blights the very atmosphere of town
and country; 1T is stain upon hon.
esty; blur upon purity; clog upon
progress; check upon the nobler
impulses; it is an incentive to false
hood, deceit and crime.
Search through the history of
this hateful thing, and read one page
oyer which some mother can bow her
grateful heal and thank God for all
the saloon did for her boy. There
is no such record. All its history is
written in tears ard blood, with
smears of shame and stains of crime
and dark blots of disgrace"

has the following to say:
Nov about the power of prohibi-
tory laws to prohibit the laws Of the
state against murder do not entirely
prevent murder. But nevertheless
] am opposed to licensing one MUIR
derer to every so many thousand
persons, even on petition Of major
ity of the property owners in the
block. that we may have all the MUIR
der that is desirable in the commun-
ity under wise regulations, with a
for thelittle income municipality.
The laws of the country prohibit
ing stealing do not entirely prevent
stealing! Yet, | am opposed to
high license system of stealing. pro-
vided that all theft shall be restrict
ed to certain authorized thieves, who
shall steal only between the hours of
say six A. M. and 11:30 P. M. except
Sunday when no stealing shall be
done except by stealth; entrance to
be made in all cases on that day by
the back door. and at the thief's
risk. | believe in laws that positive
ly forbid theft at any hour, on any
day of the week. And just as posi-
lively do | believe in the prohibition
of the liquor traffic.
Il do say that the best way to
make man temperate man is to
teach him not to drink. But a sa-
loon is not a kindergarten of sobriety.
