Marshall organized the Kiokee Bap-
list church in Columbia county, the
first Baptist church in the State,
and Georgia Baptist history began.
In 1922 the Georgia Baptist Con-
yention was organized at the Powell
ton Baptist Association, and the
history Of cooperative work Of the
denomination began. Beginning
with one there are now 1870 Bap-
list churches in the State. Beginning
with one association over 125 years
ago, there are now SO Baptist AS
sociations. There are now 10000
white Baptists in Georgia, The Bap-
fists believe in education and the
convention has under its auspices
number Of colleges and schools. All
Of these right now are calling for
money. All Baptists shout be rich
men, else adopt the Woorow Wilson
plan Of Titles. There is great
in titles. Besides, the Bap-
lists believe in missions. The FIRST
board 81 missions was appointed BY

Sumter county. having held the office
of superintendent Of public instruction.
and was a man of middle age. He met
his death at the hands of Bailey one
morning some months ago, while the
latter was passing Jones house. Bax-
ley claimed that Jones attacked him
and the killing was in self defense;
but many of Jones' neighbors believed
there were other reasons for the act
and the result Of the investigations OF
the grand jury were an indictment
against Baxley for murder and of Mrs
Jones as an accessory before the pres
ent at the fact.
The defendants are represented by
Mr.. r. B. Bullock OF this city and the
Messrs. Sgd L Carter and sgd L. Car

The Tampa Times calls attention to
the thinly yelled slurs cast by writer
In the Saturday Evening Post on the
port Of Tampa in regard to the coming
commerce Of the Panama canal. We
read the article and wondered where
the writer studied geography. Tampa
IL undoubtedly the nearest continental
American port OF consequence to the
canal The Coast Line and Seaboard
Railways running into that city will
undoubtedly double track before many
years. And right now Is fine time
for the Tampa Northern and the Ray
railroad to connect and join hands with
the Rentz railroad and make an inde-
pendent line right thru the center OF
Florida. Kept in the HANDS Of home
folks, and with municipal docks In
Jacksonville, it would be a paying in
stitution and a freight equalizer al
most equal to a river.
