" The Parable of tho Fish Net.
We are not to think OF the Kingdom
as a net. but that the embryo King
dom resembles fishing experience
with net. Ia which were gathered all
kinds Of fish. This is a parable of the
embryo Kingdom because II relates to
n work done In this Age. in connec-
ton with the finding Of the little
flock" who will constitute the Kingdom
in glory. The Lord during this Age
has not been seeking all kinds of PEG.
Pile. He Inns been calling. drawing es-,
pecially, and dealing with, only the
elect" only the sanity.
But, incidentally, variety Of other
kinds of fish have gotten into the Cos.
pei Net, some from worldly ambitions,
some because religious systems are
good matrimonial field, others because
Of social privileges, and standing, 9th,
ers because they would use religion as
a cloak for business enterprises. etc.
The parable tells us that when the
net was full It was drawn ashore" and
the fish sorted. Then the fishing
ceased. Who can say that the oppor-
tunity for entering the met" rs one of
the true "fish" OF the kind the Lord is
seeking may not be almost at an. end ?
Who can say that the Gospel Net, with
It's full assortment OF ehurchianity Of
every style, will not soon be drawn
ashore that the suitable, the elect, may
be gathered into the Kingdoml

EXPECT BAILEY
TORES|CN SOON
WILL SING HIS SWAN SONG IN
THE SENATE ON JANUARY 2
AND 3.

Washington Dec. l7-Senator Bailey
according to statements reported to
have been made by him today to
some of his colleagues, will sing his
swan song in the senate on Jan. 2 and
3, making probably two-day speech
On the issues of present-day politics,
after which he will resign from the
senate and retire to private life.
The report is that Senator Bailey
said he would have made his speech
before this time and would have re-
signed before this to let Gov. Colquitt
name his successor, but that he found
the time of the senate so occupied
by reason of the Archibald impeach-
ment trial that h could not possibly
get time for the character and length
o. speech which he has in contempla .
ton
According to the report in circula-
ton to-day Senator Bailey told his
colleagues that the legislature which
will be in session next month will
name Col. r. NJ. Johnston of Houston
as his successor 1t is stated here
by friends of Col. Johnston that in
qutry bmong the members of the
coming state legislature develops that
every anti-prohibitionist in the legis
lature will vote for Col. Johnston.
while enough Of Senator Bailey's per-
sonal followers among the prohibion-
lists in the legislature can be depended
upon to vote for Col Johnston to
elect him.
AS to Senator Bailey's own plans
no authoritative statement in detail
has been made public but it is the
common impression here that he viii
continue to maintain legal residence
in Gainesville. Tex. and practice law
in Washington.

Georgia and President Wilson.

In spite of the fact that Governor
Wilson married a Savannah lady and
was for time resident of the state
of Georgia, he received practically no
support from that state prior to his
nomination. Even in the national con-
vention in Baltimore our sister state
voted solidly against Mr.. Wilson as
long as there was hope of nominating
Mr.. Underwood. All of this seemed
strange at the time; but few under
stood Georgia's attitude. With almost
unprecedented loyalty South Carolina
supported Mr.. Wilson In the national
convention, while with dogged deter
mination Georgia's delegation went
solidly against him.
A dispatch from Atlanta referring to
the defeat of President Taft as elimi-
mating Augusta as "winter capital,
calls attention to the fact that as
former native of Georgia and lover
of golf, it is not believed that Wood
row Wilson, the presidenr-elect twill
entirely overlook the natural beauty
and advantages of this state as place
for an occasional winter residence. "
