High Living Cost
Issue of the Hour
Opinion of Wilson
nv Associated Presal

sEAGIRT, N. j., July 6.-After Gov
ernor Wilson today had expressed the
opinion that the high coast of living is
the big issue of the hour, and that at
it's heart lies the high protective tariff, :"
he was asked whether he intended to take
off his coat and go to the mat with
Colonel Roosevelt in tie question, said:
well. that sounds decidedly strenu-
GUS" laughed the governor Then he
said he intended to cover the matter in
his campaign speeches.
Yesterday Colonel Roosevelt said he
was not so sure whether the tariff was
responsible for high living coast.
Undoubtedly the tariff is at the center
OF cause for high living prices" Gov
ernor Wilson said. THE thing is so in
terlaced with public questions of all
kinds that the conclusion is inevitable.
The tariff lies at the heart of IT ALL"
Mr.. Wilson declared, too, that a great
many of the trust questions have arisen
from the tariff.
The governor received a great many
campaign contributions today ranging in
sums from IS to $780, He said these con-
stituted his idea of proper campaign con-
tributions-small amounts from unsolic-
tied sources.

SAVANNAH, Ga. July 5.-A Savan-
nathan who is interested in genealogy,
especially Irish genealogy. has found that
Gov. Woodrow Wilson. the Democratic
niminee for president, is descended from
the Burkes Of Ireland. When the nomi-
nation was made Capt. Joseph p. White
a well known Savannahian, whose hob
by is tracing the family tree of famous
men, Immediately started searching out
the ancestors OF Woodrow Wilson. Ac-
cording to this information all Of the
Wilson's who originated in Ireland came
from Godfrey, who in 1897 led the cru
saders to Palestine.
Then came in order, his son, King
Baldwin. his granddaughter, Harolwan,

daughter OF Richard the First, of Eng
land. Isabelle's son. Richard DeBurgo
had a son William, who changed the
name of the family to Wilson, and was
known as Sir William Wilson and was
lord warden of Ireland In 1896. From this
course all of the Wilson's in this country
originated and Captain White is satisfied
that Woodrow Wilson did also.

REDUCED FIRE RATES
ARE ASKED BY QUITMAN

Especial Dispatch to The JournaL)
QUITMAN, Ga, July 6.-Quitman is
after a reduced fire insurance rate and
this week Messrs. J. E. Cook and r. c.
Mcintosh, Jr., members of council. went
to Atlanta to confer with the officials of
the Underwriters association in regard
to having Qultman put on the second
class list. For this classification the
association requires in the way of fire
fighting equipment a gasoline traction
engine and chemical extinguisher,
horse-drawn hose, and additional hy-
drants at exposed points, also a parti-
ton in the citys power plant to be
placed between the pumping plant and
the electric light plant proper. This
committee will report these matters to the
next meeting of council and it is prob
able all requirements will be met.
In the recent bond election $1,000 was
voted for an improved fire department
and the argument that the town would
be saved many thousands of dollars
annually in reduced insurance rates won
the voters. The city council is prepared
to buy improved equipment but wanted
first to see what rates could be secured

WOMEN'S CLUBS To VOTE
AGAINST WOMAN SUFFRAGE
SuffragetteS Are Believed to
Be in Minority at Frisco
Convention
fpv Associated Prsss.l

SAN FRANCISCO, July 5.-The Gen
eraI Federation of Club Women Of the
United States, which has been in con-
vention here since Tuesday, June %,
will conclude its sessions here this
evening when Mrs. Philip n. Moore will
surrender the presidency to Mrs. Percy
" Pennybacker, of Austin. Tex. the
newly elected executive.
Included in the program for the clos
ing day will be the report of the com
nittee on resolutions. The supporters
of woman suffrage. who are DESTROYS of
having the federation indorse the issue,
are not now quite so hopeful that their
efforts will meet with success, because
of the vote, 556 to 255, by which Mrs.
Pennypacker was elected president over
Mrs. Carpenter, of New York
1t was Mrs. Carpenter who came out
for equal suffrage in an address before
the convention.
WILL BE REJECTED.
There remains now only the oppor-
tunity to make a motion for an indorse-
ment fro mthe floor of the convention.
That such a motion will be rejected is
the belief of the conservatives. While
the new president, Mrs. Pennypacker,
believes in equal suffrage, she shares
with the majority Of the delegates the
belief that ii is inadvisable to commit
the federation TO the movement. The
conservatives express the belief that
the federation's efforts should continue
along education lines.
Until there is restrictive suffrage
based on educational qualifica tons it is
almost certain the federation will never

sort which can not be justly consid-
cred as more than working hypothe-
ses With all the noise the critics
have made they have not overturned
one essential dogma of orthodox
christianity. In Germany, where
they have had the fullest sway they
have not been able to agree among
themselves, nor have they been able
to hold their ground against the
strong reaction towards evangelical
christianity. The doctrines of sal
walton preached by Luther, Knox,
Baxter, Wesley, Edwards, Whitehead
Spurgeon, Lidden, and the Pierces
are just where they have always
been, shining in mid-heaven as little
disturbed by the putting and blow
ing of the rationalists as the silent
stars are affected by the currents
stirred by wheezy windmill. But
the average man is not prepared to
show this as against the audacious
assertions of a pulpit sensationalist'
and, hence, many a vain talker Sc
cures a following among certain
classes of people far beyond the
merits of himself or his teachings
BY such there has been much harm
done to many well-meaning people,
and radical tendencies have been set
in motion which affect political as
well as ecclesiastical conditions.
It has been the common habit of
these rationalizing men to discuss
current topics in their pulpits, and put
forth sociological and economic theo-
rizings in place of the gospel In which
they no longer believe. This was most
natural; for when a preacher loses
confidence in the saving power or
spiritual forces to redeem the world,
he will lay hold of some earthly force
in his ministry, If he continues to
preach at all. These men, who have
ceased to believe in the authority OF
the Scriptures, the divinity of Christ,
the efficacy of the atonement, and
the reality of the new birth, are driv-
en- to adopt sociological prescriptions
for the worlds running sores and to
discuss current topics in order to re-
tain public attention. The principles
of the gospel of Christ touching the
right use of earthly goods impinge
on questions of poverty and wealth.
and thus these principles attract and
absorb the attention of men who are
ready to substitute sociology for all
the doctrines of redemption. But they
pervert the principles which they pro-
fess to expound and enforce, and turn
great truths of benevolence into Bit
ter roots Of social strife. They de-
claim in season and out of season
about the brotherhood of man in such
a way as to engender the most I'M
brotherly sentiments between the va
rious classes of the community. They
call their lop-sided gospel applied
christianity (as if there could be
any christianity which is not APP
plied) but, indeed, it is not christian
ity at all, but simply mis-applied
declarations of a misleading sort
about some of the moral principles Of
the gospel.
The teaching of Jesus about pow
erty and wealth is that the life con-
sisteth not in the abundance of the
things a man hath, and that death

QUITMAN VOTERS FAVOR
CHANGES IN FENCE LAW

QUITMAN, Ca, July 6.-Out of 1000
registered voters over 1000 voted on
the no-fence question. and the election
went against the no-fence plan to 1.
Those opposed to the change worked
very hard to get every vote registered
against it, while those in favor of no
fences were not very active.
1t is the first no-fence election the
county has had, and the men who favor
the no-fence plan say they regard it as
merely a preliminary skiruish, and be-
lieve it will have an educational value
and that when the question comes up
again the people will have discussed it
pro and con and will be better prepared
to render a fair verdict as to the adj
vantages and disadvantages of the
plan.
The large landowners and stock rails
ers were almost unanimously for the
change, but the small farmers, who had
been accustomed to having free range
for their stock on the, unfenced wood
lands, were decidedly against it, and
evidently in the majority.

no bought bread, nor canned goods OF

pretty flowers on my mothers organdie

hung so gracefully from her shoulders.
All OF which goes TO show that the
