the hour for his mission work? I answer:
Because conditions here are entirely different
to what they are in America For example,
if a missionary should do his own buying, it
would require about one-fourth his time,
and he would be kept constantly at home
could not go to the country on long itinerat-
ing tours, as many missionaries here do.
Here one not get up early in the morn
ing and go to the store and market and make
his purchases, or telephone and have what he
wants delivered to his door; but has to wait
until farmers bring in supplies from the
country; and then go to the different market
places and make his purchases. You may
find eggs at one place and then have to walk
mile to buy turn ps. and these things you
bring home; they are not delivered. Here
there are no market houses or stalls, but
things are sold along the sides of the streets
and on the banks of the river. So, If q mis-
Si0nary gives anything like his full time to
the ar0rk e0hich the Lord has called him
here to do he must use SERVANTS. After look
ing into this question I soon reached the con-
cluslon that q missionary should be praised
and not condemned for being aCizzing to spend
HIS OWN MONEY FOR SERVANTS, in
order that he may give full time to his work
as a missionary.
And, further, q missionary, kept constantly
at home in order to do 20ith0ut servants.
negIecting the work which the Lord has
called him to do, aO0uzd lose the respect Of
the heather, because they would say he was
too stlngy to have servant and was here to
make money; and he would also be severely
criticised by native Christians for neglecting
work which he ought to do.
One phase of this question [ recently had
brought directly to my attention. My SON.
ln-law, who is not a missionary, recently
accepted a position IN the government school
at Paotlngfu near Picking, at salary four
times as large as that paid single malSsio1e-
arg; and before leaving here for Paotingfu
he and my daughter talked over the servant
question, and they decided, as my daughter
was under no obligation to the school, she
would prefer to do her housekeeping as far
as she could; and if they had one man to do
the marketing and help with the other work
they would prefer not to have another serv-
ant. When my sOn-in-law went to Paotingfu
to arrange for a house, the president of the
school, qoh0 IS q Christian Ch5nanaa1a, told
him If he attempted to do qoitb less than
three SERVANTS, he would forfeit the respect
of the Chinese, and would find it very diff
cult to hold his place In the school. A teacher
here, to be respected, must live as a teacher.
lie can not afford to destroy his influence IN
order to lag up q feo0 dollars IN bank.
So, under conditions which exists here
missionary should not be condemned for
spending portion Of HIS OWN MONEY,
in order that he may be free to do this one
thing preach the gospel to a lost q0orzd.

COMMENT.

Carefully considered, the foregoing letter,
prepared for special purpose, is one of the
most remarkable contributions to missionary
literature, that ever was published; it reveals
the missionary's point of view.
1t shows his utterly unconscious selfish
ness; to use slang phrase, he gives himself
away"
Doctor Ayres admits that he found all the
foreign missionaries employing servants,
therefore he naturally says to the American
people who contribute the money to foreign
missionary work: ''Your wives and your
daughters may submit to household drudg-
cry, but our wives and our daughters will
not submit to it. You must furnish enough
money to enable us-all of us-to employ
servants: your wives and daughters may have

Robert Henry, of Texas.

IN another column of this paper, will be
found full report of the amendments
which Congressman Henry, of Texas, will
try to make to the terrible Glass; Owens Cur
rency bill-a bill which European fnanciers
want, which Morgan's Money Trust wants,
which Taft and Aldrich tried to sneak
through, and which Wilson and Bryan have
endorsed.
This Hamiltonian measure is exactly what
might have been expected from Woodrow
Wilson. In every one of his books, he proves
his contempt of Jefferson and jackson.
Before the Presidential bee got into his
bonnet, Professor Wilson was an out-and-out
Hamiltonian.
lie had right to be, and he qoas.
But did he have the moral right to pose
as Jefersonian, and to get office, that q0ay?
AS to Bryan, there are no words which can
exaggerate has change of heart.
Where is the Bryan who ran for Congress,
as q Popa4zist IN pyi1acip1e?
Where is the Bryan who swore that he
would die, before he would endorse the Wall
Street theory of money?
Where is the Bryan who was paid humid
red thousand dollars to make Free-silver
speeches?
Where is the Bryan who was the produc-
ers' champion, the foe of Special Privilege,
the hero of the suffering masses, the poor
MANS friend, the peerless tribune of the peo-
pie, the great Comamoomer, who Electrically
defed the crucifers of mankind-their crown
of thorns and their cross of gold?
From which one of his three splendid
palaces does Mr.. Bryan love best to look
upon this monstrous Glass Owens bill,
which gives to the Money Trust that which
Taft and Aldrich were willing, but not able
to give it?
I am not surprised that Senator Smoith Of
Georgia should come doom to Atz0mta and
RAPTUROUSLY ENDORSE THE NEW
WALL STREET BILL.
Smith was member of Cleveland's second
cabinet, and the new Morgan Money Trust
measure smacks of the Morgan Cleveland
midnight bond-deal.
[ am not surprised that so many Demo-
cratic Congressman, who would rather betray
their constituents than to lose patronage,
should be silent at this crisis.
But the country is to be congratulated
upon the fact that there are some Democrats
in Congress who mean to prevent, if they
can, a complete and disgraceful surrender to
the Wall Street gang of robbers.
At present, Robert L. Henry of Texas
looms up as the leaders of these friends of
the common people, place which Bryan SO
long pretended to hold and which he has so
basely and selfshly deserted.

the Christian Index, Defending
the Employment OF House Ser
wants, by Foreign Missionaries
& ONE weeks ago, as our readers will
remember, we published letter from a
friend IN Lincoln County, Georgia, inform
ing us that certain Baptist preacher had
denied from his pulpit my statements con-
corning the use of domestic servants by for
elgn missionaries.
The preacher declared to his congregation,
that he had been reader of the Christian
lnoex for twenty-one years, and that he had
never seen such letter from Doctor Ayres,
as l claimed to have appeared in the columns
OF that paper.
Through the courtesy or my friend, Mr.
George W. Seals, Of Atlanta, I am enabled
to lay before our readers, an exact copy of
the letter to which I referred.
A careful reading of said letter. will show
that the whole purpose Of Doctor Ayres IN
writing it, was to defend the missionaries
for doing the very thing had said they did,
to-wit: employing domestic servants for
homework
1t was certainly very wrong in the preacher
who accused me of falsehood, to make any
such charge from his pulpit, without having
first made some effort to get at the truth.
Had he written to Doctor Ayres, or to the
Index, or to myself, he would not have done
himself the injustice of bearing false witness
against neighbor.
The following is Doctor Ayres' letter, as it
appeared in the Index (the italics and other
marks of emphasis are mine:)
SHOULD MISSIONARIES HAVE SERVANTS?
BY T. w. AYREs.
This is question which seems to be agitat-
ing the minds of quite number of people in
America ust now, and think if they can be
led to understand the conditions which exist
here they will be enabled to give an intelli-
gent answer.

and during these years at home [ had heard
much said of the forei on missionary, of his
mode of living and his methods of work;
and I determined, before coming that, after
reaching the field, would open my eyes and
try to see things in their true light Among
the first thing [ inquired into was the ques-
ton of servants. [ found the missionaries

Perhaps under the circumstances ii
may be somewhat belated but it is all
right as a conclusion. Coming after

All that is necessary to do to correct
the worst evils Of the present system
is to raise the limit.
County Attorney Reed makes a sug-
gestion which is we'll worth consider
ing. Do away with Justices of the
peace and substitute county court
which should meet in different parts OF
the county.
If this were done such court should
be a court Of record. having jurisdiction
in cases up to $500 and allowing no
appeal in cases involving less than
500 or 5000.

knowledge of law and some expert
ence, says that he Is In favor OF a law

trict court to the supreme court in

gal profession, who would question the
merit Of such a law.

Cummins defeat for another term are
letting the wish father the thought
Senator Cummins has been so often

However, it may be depended upon
that the senator will offer his princi-
pies and policies along with himself
when the time comes and insist that
he be chosen or denied upon what he
really stands for. That is the Cum
MINIS way. And it is to be considered
also that Cummins could lose the SEN
