BOTH HAVE HELD
THE SAME JOB.

The republicans have been making
much of the fact that Judge Burrow,
the democratic nominee for supreme
Judge, represents as practicing at
torney the Southern railroad.
Hooper's organ, the Banner, has
been employing this fact to strike at
Judge Burrow and some of his sup
porters, saying: How does such a
rampant railroad-buster and crusher
of corporations as Senator Lea recon-
Gle his position with the attempt to
place a prominent railroad attorney
on the supreme bench?" and further
that paper says that Senator Lea and
his paper are trying to defeat Judge
Williams with a division attorney of
the Southern railroad.
Hon. l.. d. Hill, chairman of the
democratic state committee, is author
ity for the statement that Judge Bur-
row, the democratic nominee for SUI
preme Judge, now serves the Southern
railroad as assistant division counsel
in exactly the same capacity that
Judge Williams was serving in when
he was appointed to the supreme
bench by Governor Hooper There

Literary Work in Lnnan.


Rev. E. N. Walne writes regarding
literary and publication work. eve
| are glad to be able to report that a
most encouraging beginning of the lit
erary work which we have long de-
sired to undertake has been made
During the year we published a Jap
anese translation of DR.. Edward Jud-
sons Life of Adoniram Judson." The
cost of translating the Life of Jud-
son. was provided by personal sub
scriptions from the members of our
mission, and the bookwas published
by the Christian Literary society with
out any expense to our board.
Nearly the whole of the first edition
of 1000 copies was sold within six
months. 1t met with the most favor
able reception from the Japanese re-
ligious press of all denominations.
The Congregational organ, which has
he largest circulation of any Chris
ian paper in the empire, devoted the
whole of the first page of one issue to
1 review by the editor, in which the
following statement occurs:
Just when the religious world
seems prone to become lifeless, it is
well for Christians to revive their
lukewarm faith by reading the bio
graphies of the heroic English and
American missionaries of a century
ago.
For this reason most hearty well
come should be given the Life of Jud-
son. recently published by the Chris
tan Literature society. The transla-
tor, Mr.. Kioyshi Sato, has done his
work in a style so accurate, and at
the same time so free and fluent, that
the book reads more like an original
work than a translation.
Il have received great inspiration
from every chapter and every page of
it, Beginning the book with the in
tention of scanning it hurriedly, l fin
ished by reading with deep interest,
every lipe of it.
"My emotions were so profoundly
stirred by the great and Christlike
CHARACTER of Judson that | felt as
,houg l had almost been guilty of ir-
reverence in attempting to pass light
iy over the events of his tragic and
glorious career"

FilipinOs Give Up Opium.

That the use of opium among the
Filipinos has been checked, if not en-
tirely eradicated, is asserted by a mis-
sionary, Rev. A. L. Snyder, just BACK
from the islands on furlough. AS Q
result of laws on the subject, the use
of opium is now confined to COM
paratiyely small number of confirmed
drug fiends, practically all OF Whom
are Chinese. These seem unable to
give up the drug, and will go to any
length to obtain it.
Only five per cent OF the Flllpino'

bered 10000 in 1906, were still VIC

Thrown from his horse, which
promptly ran away, lying helpless,
with a broken leg, four hundred miles
from home. a stranger and without a
cent of money-such was the pitiable
condition of Chinese laborer, who
had come to North China looking for
work.
Painfully he dragged himself to the
nearest village, where a man gave him
food and lodging for six weeks. Then,
slowly and with much suffering, he
crawled and hobbled back to his home,
four hundred miles away, begging
food as he went.
Fully four months he lay at home
until there was no more food to be
secured. With the aid of a crooked
stick he managed to reach our hospi-
tai and implored me to have mercy
on him.
More than five months had passed
since his injury, and it was question
what could be done for him. A
Christian at Taianfu, hearing the
plucky mans story, offered to pay his
expenses in the hospital A cast was
at once applied to the broken leg and
IL is now serviceable member. While
under our care this patient became a
Christian and has since joined the
church.

The unfinished task in China is still
a gigantic one What plea could be
more eloquent in breviy and pathos
than the fact that there are still in
China 1857 cities without missionar-
les?
When the China Inland Mission was
founded, in 1864, there were only fif-
teen Protestant mission stations IN
China, with about 1000 converts. TO
day that mission alone has 2O5 stations
and 769 substantions, Every province
Of the empire has its missions, WIN d
total of 2.O27 native church organlza-
tons and 1T, 724 Protestant church
members.
And in addition to the areas I'M
reached. there are the Moslems, NUM-
herring millions. 1t is said that the
Moslem population of China is certain
" equal to the entire population Oh
Algeria or Scotland or Ireland; that
il is in all probability equal to that Oh
Morocco and numbers not less than
the total population of Persia. ohe
writer has said: within China there
is a special people, equal in number 10
the population of any of China's ue-
nendencies. for whom practically MOTH
ing is being done, and whose pres
ence hitherto has been almost lgnor-
ed"
we learn from the Missionary Re-
Wow Of the World that the total evan
gelical church membership in the re-
public of China is about 4'o'ooo
These Christians are served by 54e
ordained Chinese pastors and 5,oo9
unordained workers. In adoltloh'
there are 4,712 Chinese CHRISTIAN
school teachers, 1879 Bible women
and 496 native assistants employed III
hospitals, of which there are z3o'
Other Chinese workers in the evange-
lical churches bring the total OF the

contributed $320,900 for Christian
work among their own people during
the past year. Leading in the WORK

A VOTE FOR WILLIAMS
IS A VOTE FOR HOOPER

"A vote for Sam C. Williams is a
vote to sustain the administration of
Governor Hooper," is the 'non-parti-
san" manner in which James S. Beas-
ley, chairman of the republican exc
cutive committee of Tennessee, is cam
paigning for his candidate for the SUI
preme court.
GIVE us Williams and we will elect
Hooper is the slogan Mr.. Beasley is
handing out to the dyed-in-the-wool
republicans in East Tennessee. The
chairman, ii is said, is flooding the
mountain section with the rankest OF
partisan literature, at the same time
appealing to the democrats of Middle
and West Tennessee that the cam
paign for the supreme court is a nom
partisan campaign.
There are many republicans up in
East Tennessee who expect to vote
for Judge Burrow for the supreme
court, and it was one of those who
'let the rat out of the box" for Chair
man Beasley and showed up his mon
partisanship."
II received this through the mail to-
day" writes Scott county republican
in sending back to Nashville circular
gotten out by the republicans and sent
out all over that section.
The circular is green in color and
is addressed to the republicans of
Scott county The circular is signed
by James S. Beasley, Chairman Re-
publican Executive Committee of Ten
nessee." Mr.. Beasley emphasizes the
fact that Judge Williams is an ap-
pointee of Governor Hooper
Republican Chairman Beasley also
refers to a court decision in which he
says the republicans of East Tonnes
see would have been DISTINGUISHED
had 1t not been for the stand Judge
Williams took on the election law.
And he boldly adds: ut would
have meant the permanent overthrow
and destruction of the republican par
ty in this state"
When the circular was shown to
Judge l.. d. Hill, chairman of the dem
ocratic state committee, he said:
That is a fair sample Of the non
partisan campaign the republicans
are carrying on for their nominee. 1t
demonstrates the absolute humbug-
gerry of the 'non-partisan' cry they are
putting up"
Some of the most striking "nonpar-
tisan" sentences, of Republican Chair
man Beasley's appeal for Judge Will
liams are:
He holds the Office by virtue of the
appointment by Governor Hooper,
He is the nominee of the -republi-
can party of the state"
"A vote for Sam c. Williams is a.
vote to sustain the administration of
GCvernor Hooper"

Deafness Can Not Be Cured

by local applications, as they can not reach the
diseased portion OF the ear There is only one
way TO cure deafness, and that Is by conStitu-
tonal remedies Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining OF the
eustachian tube. When this tube is infiamed
you have a rumbling found or imperfect hear
ing and when it is entirely closed. deafness is
the result. and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh
which is nothing but an infiamed condition OF
the mucous surfaces.

fore, whatever objection may be of
fered to Judge Burrow for being a
railroad counsel may also be offered
to Judge Williams. The objection
that the people may have to one on
account of being a railroad attorney
must necessarily prevail against the
other, and therefore the criticism the
republicans make against Judge Bur-
row is absolutely withuot justification
and without force.
But the republicans say that they
are fighting for a non-partisan, un-
trammeled, and free judiciary-one
that has been divorced from politics
politicians, and political parties, and
they offer man who has been nomi-
mated by two political conventions,
while the democrats offer one who has
been nominated by only one.
With respect to this phase of the
matter, the democratic nominee is no
deeper involved in politics than the
republican nominee. From the very
worst viewpoint, the democratic nomi-
nee can not be said to be any deeper
in the mire of politics than the repub-
lican nominee is in the mud of politics.
If these men are equally worthy in
point of capacity, capability, and effic-
iensy, then the weight of one as
against the weight of the other must
be determined by the strength of par
ty claims. Conceding that in all other
things the men are equal, Judge Bur-
row has the advantage of being the
nominee of the democrats as against
the nominee of the republicans
