A GEORGIA BAPTIST OFFERS

Dear Sir: Having noticed from
the daily papers something about the
indictment against you in the Fede-
raj Court at Augusta, Ca, | feel
that it is my duty as a Baptist to
give you any aid [ can toward prov
ing that what you sent through the
U. S. mail was justifable and true
l met about years ago one of the
students of the Baptist Theological
Seminary of Louisville, Ky, whose
name was Piahna, who was born and
reared in Italy. His parents are of
the royal family of Italy. He was
sent to Brazil, South American, and
while there was converted through
the efforts Of a Baptist missionary.
/ am sure you can get in touch with
this young man through communi-

and he don't mind talking, and he
knows a lot. My brother-in-law was
in school with him. Hope if you

NO WONDER CHARLES II DIED.

Charles II of England lived less
than a week after he was attacked
by his fatal illness, and it is wonder
full that he lived so long. A mono
graph on 1.-THE Last Days of Charles
H." which has lately been published
by the Clarendon Press. gives some
extraordinary details Of those last
days. The royal patient had four
teen doctors in attendance. They
bled him to the extent of thirty
four ounces; they shaved his hair
and applied blistering agents all
over his head; they also applied
plasters to the soles of his feet; and
they dosed him with "orange iafll-

HOW TO GET THE PEOPLE IN
TEREGTEn
Atlanta, Ga.
TERESTED.

A momentous problem of present
day interest is, how to get into the
minds of the people of our country
the facts in regard to the encroach-
ments of the Roman Catholic HER
archy upon the rights and liberties
of the American people.
This can be done only through
the medium of the public press.
But Romanism excludes us from the
columns of the secular press.
Therefore the following plan is
proposed:
L. Establish a headquarters in
Washington, the capitol Of the ma
ton.
2. But in it man who (a)
knows what needs to be done; (b)
is competent to do it; (c) and will
do the work con amore.
8. Let him gather up all the
facts, from all sources, showing
what the Roman Catholic Hierarchy
has done in the past, is doing now,
and declares its purpose to do in
this country, in the future.
4. Furnish these facts, we'll au-
thenticated, and get them published,
as far as possible, in all the weekly
journals OF all the Protestant de-
nominations of the country; also in
any secular journals that are will
ing to print them.
5. Keep to the fore the political
features of these facts.
6. Segregate the Roman Catholic
Hierarchy from the Roman Catholic
people.
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1912-11-28

Z. After time, gather up these
accumulated facts, group them un-
der proper headings, print them in
cheap form, and scatter them broad
cast throughout the land, and keep
it up.
6. Seek of course, the support of
the ministry, of all Christian peo-
pie, and of all good citizens; but not
the endorsement of any religious or
ganiZation.
8. Project the movement on the
plane of American citizens appeal
ing to all their fellow countrymen,
including Roman Catholics, many Of
whom will sympathize with them.

SUPREME COURT REFORM.

The Supreme Court of the United
States has made some rules of pro-
cedure which accomplish all that was
sought to be done by many bill
that fell by the wayside. There has
been no end of complaint about the
delay Of justice in federal courts as
well as in State. In fact, one of the
grievances of the time is that JUS
tice is so long in being attained.
Competent lawyers have been
sent abroad several times in the last
few years to study procedure in Eng
land and they have come back inva-
riably to speak in warm praise of
English methods of handling litiga-
ton. They see no reason why
American cases cannot be tried as
promptly and as well as the English
and the amount of business con-
Quoted is common in the British
courts.
A study of the question shows
that it is not in the judges them
selves. but in the methods of doing
business, that speed is attained with
out loss of accuracy in judgment and
without failure Of justice, any more
than is inevitable in all human in
stitutions.
Since then, we have before our
eyes the example Of the old nation
which followed behind our own near
ly thirty years in having any code
at all, they are setting us now an
example which we should imatata
and the people may be grateful that
the Supreme Court has taken the
subject in hand.
The orders that have been made
meet the approval Of the bar and Of
the people generally. 1t is recited
that leaders in the field of organized
labor also applaud and say that the
new rule respecting iGjunctions is
substantially what they have sought
to have incorporated in the law for
several years.
Whether that is strictly SO or not.
the fact remains that on all sides
there is every sentiment Of appro-
may be that there is something il
the introduction of some younger
men into court and it may be that
some of the elders have been held
in restraint and are equally as young
and vigorous in mind as their asso
ciates.
Whatever the reason for it. the
court gains new credit with the PEG
pIe and enlists fresh confidence by
it's conformity to the desire OF the
time for more movement in the
handling of business.-Buffalo IN.

ROCKS CRASH
INTOCOLE BUILDING
MUCH EXCITEMENT PREVAILS
AND METEOR SHOWER Is
RUMoRED.

NASHVILLE, Aug. 14.-Much ex-
element was caused Tuesday after
noon about 2 o'clock, when an OLD
bridge pier near the Woodland street
bridge was blasted by a government
boat, the explosion sending a large
rock through the roof Of the Cole
building and also one through the
roof of the city hall.
It was first thought that the city
had been visited by several meteors
and many people became much
frightened in the buildings which the
rocks entered. The engineering de-
partment Of the government had not
received report Of the blast late
Tuesday afternoon, but expect to
hear from their boat this morning.
The rock which went through the
roof Of the Colt building entered the
office of Henry G. Patterson, room
No. 514. The rock first struck a
chimney on top Of the building,
knocking off its stone browning. The
hole made in the roof was nearly one
foot in diameter. Mr.. Patterson was
not In his Office at the time.
The rocks which caused so much
damage were thrown from blast
made under an old cement bridge
pier in the Cumberland river, just
below the Woodland street bridge.
Government contractors, who were
clearing out the river channel Tues
day, put heavy load of dynamite I'M
der the cement structure, which was
below the level, in an attempt to de-
molish it. The two rocks thrown
through the city hall and Cole build
ings caused the greatest damage, al
though several smaller stones fell up
on roofs near the river banks.
The pier which was destroyed was
more than sixty years old. It once
formed the base of bridge that led
from the Public Square to Main
street, and which was destroyed be-
fore the civil war.

sheds, as the necrosis bacilli will re
tain their, virulence under favorable
conditions in and around the sheep
fold for several years.
Treatment of this disease by Local
antiseptics is very satisfactory if be
gun in time and applied energetical
ly. 1t should not be deferred, as
better results will be obtained by at
lacking the outbreak as soon as dis
covered than can be expected IL the
disease is permitted to spread among
the band or penetrate deeper into
the tissues of the affected parts.
Close inspection of all sheep that
have come in contact with infected
sheep and infected premises.
Distinction of all pens, corrals
and sheds with per cent. solution
of pure carbolic acid, or a per cent.
solution of some recognized sheep
dip.
Mild cases, remove the scab and
spongy tissue and dress the sore
with parts coal-tar-dip, 10 parts of
sublimed sulpher and 100 parts OF
mutton tallow, lard or vaseline.
Those badly infected cases which
show tendency to resist treatment
should be hand treated and affected
parts curetted and properly drained.
If the LESSONS are on the coronary
band or hoof, all the diseased or
loosened portions should be remov-
ed with the knife. As in everything
else, diligence and careful attention
are necessary for successful results
in these stubborn cases.
In conclusion, 1t is my opinion that
the place to suppress this disease is
on the farm and If much inconven.
fence and financial loss is TO be
avoided in making shipments to non.
infected states, the individual flock
master must battle with it at home,
holding back all diseased or recently
exposed sheep and shipping only
those which remain healthy after
they have been removed from infec-
ton for at least two weeks.

this disease may be had by the read

the primary was slightly more than
forty per cent of the vote in the cleo

forty per cent of the people who vot-

the primary, for that is not the fact.

This district, of course, takes the
banner of having the smallest per
cent of vote in the primary. But Of
, the districts in which primaries were
held the smallest per cent was cast
in the fifth and eighth. And this is
somewhat remarkable when it is re-

which includes Culleoka and Glen
dale, is the home of Col Thos. H.

erful PEBBLES machine and the state
