WHY ovERMAN OPPOSES LINNE1

Republicans i'll Washington have
been saying that the Democratic
newspapers can no longer scare the
white people in North Carolina with
the revival of the ghost of the ne
gro in politics. They have been
pointing to the slight reaction of the
State to the reports of the Linney
case as proof. But the change of
mind of Senator Overman from
friend of Linney's nomination as dis
trlct attorney to a pronounced op-
ponent shows that he fears the Re
publicans are going to try to use the
negro politically through such men
as Linney. At first he trusted Lin
ney as man of honor and integrity
and secured for him hearing he
fore the Senate Judiciary Committee
But Linney's repudiation of the let
ter to which his name was attached
as chairman of the Republican State
committee and his advocacy of
! force bill for the South have con-
Vlnced Senator Overman that this
6oone lawyer is an apt agent for the
Republican party to revive the men
ace OF the negro in politics.
Mr. Overman's conviction in this
matter is strengthened by his knowl-
cage that there is on file in the COM
mlItee Of which he is the ranking
: democrat the bill mentioned above
TO investigate the social and nolti-
cal condition of the negro. He is
hoping that he can put this miscbe-
Vlous bill to sleep. He is telling his
Republican friends in the Senate that
the bill has only T. N. T. for their
party in the South.

from the great stage success and
novel by Justin Huntly Mccarthy and
is a William Fox production
Those who follow the stage will re-
member that E. H. Sothern created
the role of Francois Villon in this

AS soon as the picture was finished
Mr.. Fox sent a copy of it to England,
where it was shown to Justin Hunt
ly Mccarthy. The author was enthu-
siastic.
''It is wonderful" he declared
81 never believed motion pictures
could make a play so real. And Mr..
Farnum is splendid in the part of
Villon. During the recitation of the
poem eff I were King before Louis,
l could almost believe l was hearing
Mr.. Farnum speak. I extend my con-
gratulations to Mr.. Fox, to Mr.. Far
mum and to Mr.. Edwards, who di-
rected the picture. The handling of

SALVATION

Reading from the Psalm descrlp-
Lord in both the natural and spirit
ual world, in order to impress ms
congregation of the power and glory
OF God. and the way He has Of TAX
ing care Of those upon the earth, ana
! the gratitude every living thing
should feel towards Him, DR.. Mercer,
pastor Of the Baptist church, select
ed as his text the words OF Isaiah.
45:22, Look unto me ana be ye
saved all ye ends of the earth, for
| 7 am God and beside me there IS
none else"
t DR.. Mercer said in the course or a
most able and eloquent sermon that
Gods greatest thought is for men,
J and their salvation.
He created the earth for man, and
anticipating all his needs has bless
ed him with the comforts of life, and
for all this man should think of His
Maker, in spirit of gratitude, If for
nothing else, and yet how few really
feel truly grateful for all He has
done for them. And to crown all
His wonderful achievements He has
made it possible for man to emerge
from the degradation of sin by
coming down to earth in the person
of His own Son who was offered on
| the shameful tree of the cross for
mans salvation.
| This act was the highest thought
of God, the best act in the universe.
Ever since man first put his foot on
the earth, for hundreds of years
God has been through His inspired
writer's and apostles giving mes
sage to man, which combines the his
tory of men and His plan for their
salvation that He might bring the
best gifts to you.
DR.. Mercer emphasized this fact
that it might awaken the best in
men and women, and stir their hearts
to a full understanding and appre-
citation of the love of God.
! The speaker said that we see the
minds of men and women occupied
with the things of life, and wonder
how little they give thought of the
things of God when our Heavenly
Father gives us everything. He pro-
vides salvation for men and how lit
tie they think of that. He is always
thinking of us and how little
we thing of Him.
Unless we can get men and women
to think of these things we can't get
them to live it. They must find it in
God, for it is nowhere else. How sad
it is to think that men and nations
have tried to find salvation in other
things beside God, the source and
fountain of all life. We look back
through the ages and see men and
nations worshipping idols of wood
and stone. They have allowed their
bodies to be burned and have com
mitted other sacraifices to these gods
AS long as there is a man who is not
seeking salvation from the true God
in the way that He points out it is
our duty and our responsibility tC
show him the true way. That is ou1
mission and our joy in life.

THE TARIFF AND THE NEGRO

The Republicans so far as con-
: Germs the South are trying to ride
two horses, the dappled horse Of the
protective tariff and the black horse
of the negro. They are now work
ing through the Southern Protective
Tariff Association to capture the bus
mess interests of the South and at
the same time there is filed in the
alcoves of the Judiciary Committee
3 of the Senate bill to appoint a COM
mittee to investigate the moral, So
cial and political conditions of the
Southern negro. This latter move,
it is understood is inspired by the
negroes themselves with a view fo
demanding political and social equal
lty with the whites in the South.
The Republicans have never faced
two tasks in the Southern States so
diametrically opposed to each other
and so difficult to coordinate. But
IN Washington we are told.
they are on the one hand setting
great store by the South's eagerness
to become the new west and on the
other hand are trusting to the tire
OF the Southern people over the ne
gro question in politics.

The old ones. the Jews. despised him,

The good effects of such a trust is
self-evident.

TELLS OF BIBLE AND
TEACHINGS OF LOVE

Rev. DR. Burgans text at the morn
ing service OF Calvary Methodist
Episcopal Church yesterday was from
Deut. 7:7.S: THE Lord did not set
his love upon you. nor choose you,
because We were more in number than
any people: for We were the fewest OF
all people: But because the Lord
loved you"
The fundamental principle running
all through the Bible is love The
Old Testament uses five different He
brew words to express this idea. Just
as there is no accounting for the d.
rection that human love win take, so
the divine love cannot be explained
as the text declares. God loves US
because He loves us.
Our belief in this never-failing love
gives us four great reasons for COM
fort and satisfaction in life. First
we can be assured that we are living
in friendly world. where God has
provided us with necessary blessings.
Then too. we are confident OF a safe
conduct through this world Third,
we can attain redemption in this life,
and last. we have been promised inn
mortality in the life TO come.

Brewer and Prof W F. Olivet A
