EVANGELIST LEWIS
EXPRESSES THANKS
AND APPRECIATION
Is DEEPLY THANKFUL TO THE
MANY WHO ASSISTED HIM
IN COLUMBIA.
LADORED UNDER Difficulties
About Two Hundred Fifty Made Pro-
fession Of Christianity During the
Meeting Here-Goes From Here to
Lewisburg for Similar Work.

On the eve of his departure for
Lewisburg, where he will conduct a
meeting similar to the one he has
held here, Rev. R. w. Lewis had the
following words of appreciation to
say Of the treatment and courtesies
that he had received while in this
city:
"Next Monday at o'clock the work
of taking down the tabernacle will
begin, d. ", and Tuesday it will be
shipped to Lewisburg. Thus we come
near the close Of the tabernacle meet
ings AS there will be no time for
final and farewell words in the rush
of last moments, the writer
has been given space in The Herald
for valedictory message to the peo-
pie of Columbia.
Since day by day people express
much surprise to find that the writer
is citizen Of Nashville, he feels it
due all readers of this paper to clear
ly understand that he is a closely
neighbor, and that as such he feels
himself the more obligated to cour-
teous recognition OF the kindnesses
shown him and his party.
/ 1t will be hard to record full list
of those who have shown the party
kindnesses, and some ones name
may be omitted, but not Intentional
".
From the first hour we landed here
a Chesterfield bearing was displayed
by certain citizens Of Columbia,
Frank G. Smith, William e. Britain,
George w. Hayes, the Editor Of The
Herald, Joseph F. Brownlaw met US
most cordially, and one or the other
exerted himself the full time Of the
stay to show US some attention. One
showed us his lot, another took US in
his buggy and went over the town
looking for better lot; another
searched for the men on the streets
whom we wished to meet for one rea-
son or another Mr. Warfield whose lot
we have used, has shown himself a
generous man Of unusual loyalty to
the cause Of Christ in refusing money
for his lot SO long as we needed it.
We are also grateful for the court
house, the several stores and the
homes for our services. Then we are
very grateful to the several pastors
who have joined us in the work; for
their forbearance towards an innova-
ton, and their patience with us while
we handled as best we could new

and necessitated awkwardness. We
thank them for their pulpits; we
thank them for their prayers; we
thank them for their cooperationj
and especially do we thank them for
their refreshing candor in dealing
with a delicate situation, standing as
they did, and do, between God and
men. Il
We are heartily grateful for the
splendid assistance given us by Broth
er Bates, who did the unusual and he
roic thing to take his force of five or
six men off Of his own building and
place them at work on the erection of
the tabernacle. And Brother Buch-
nau-bless his heart! How he did
work on that tabernaclel his fine
eye was much needed.
Nor could we have well gotten along
without the gratuitous work Of Mr..

BOB DuNlOP'S PLAN.

State Treasurer Robert Dunlop who
is in the race for governor, has figured
out a plan by which he says good men
can be elected to office and by which
the republicans will be kept out OF
democratic politics. He proposes in
this letter which was addressed to
Tom c. Harrill that a convention be
held in the state. that one delegate
from every voting precinct in the state
be elected to this convention, that the
convention select the candidates to be
voted upon at the August primary.
That the candidates be nominated for
the offices of United States senator
and all the state offices. Besides be-
ing addressed to the chairman it was
also sent to other candidates No let
ters have come from the candidates
and how they feel about the matter
is not known yet.
Mr.. Dunlop is not without expert
ence in the political game, but he will
find before he Is through with his
proposition that the people will attend
TO the manner of selecting their own
candidates. In fact, they have al
ready attended to it by enacting a
primary law for the purpose Of select
ing party candidates. The democratic
party fought a long time for the elm
ination of the convention system in
states and counties. They succeeded
in establishing the primary election to
take its place They have gone far.

dental election to have primary to

HALF. AND HALF"
NOT A JONAH
MAINTAINED THAT COTTON OIL
CRUsHERs ARE RESPONSIBLE
FOR THE BUGABOO.

A great deal has been said through
the press and by personal talks with
farmers about the cotton seed known
as "half and half" and the farmers
all over the south have been warned
| that to use this seed would mean
that this cotton would not find a
ready market and if it did, that
the prices would be cut to pieces.
Liverpool exchanges have been flood
ing the cotton states with litera-
ture, warning against the use of
this seed and the cotton men gen
orally have been denouncing it in
unComplimentary terms, and now it
has Leaked that there was reason.
Men in position to know, have
stated that the half and half cotton
is a Inter pure and simple, that the
seed are practically valueless as oil
producers and for that reason the
oil men and cotton operators are
urging that other cotton be planted
that was more productive of seed,
and therefore more valuable to them
in the oil business.
Just what merit these arguments
possess is hard to determine. The
half and half cotton men are claim
ing that theirs is the best cotton
for the farmers to plant and the
cotton operators and oil men are con-
tending that to do so will mean
ruin for the farmers. The following
is reproduced from "The Interstate,
Farmer" and can be taken for what
it is worth:
New Cotton Seed a Jonah?
