DAILY ENQUIRER-SUN; COLUMBUS. GEORGIA, WEDNBSDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER ,7. 1886. 5 Horn of Sum Joiioa’ Ntyiny*. I’m » ptculiu ftllbw: I do love my wife. It t»kea a cold pew to make a cold pulpit. There is nbthliig better In heaven than religion. Our actions of to-day are the thoughts of yes terday. A truthftil woman is the greatest adornment of a home. It takes prayer, study and thought to get up a first-class sermon. If you Uve in impure thoughts you will be im pure in your lives. Profanity is more or less a profession of your loyalty to the devil. A church that can’t do anything but keep itself straight is a failure. When a heart is ohuuk full of error there is uo room in there for the truth. We are in uo position to help or hurt the church until we are inside it. Nobody ever went to sleep indifferent to relig ion and waked up in heaven. A child is loved by God because it has no opin ions and wants to learn something. It takes a first-class preacher and a first-class hearer to get up a flrstrclnss sermon. Dishonesty in the church is really crippling the church mrre than anything else. I want to see our young girls grow up better women than our mothers and wives are. I never heard yet of a committee asking for a preacher that is popular with God Almighty. You can help your preacher, instead of ever lastingly calling on your preacher to help you. Don’t get into anybody’* way with your natu ralness, but try to be yourself wherever you go. Run into heaven barefooted and bareheaded rather than miss it on account of anything in the world. If we’re right we can’t be hurt by the truth, and if we ain’t right we ought to be hurt right eously. It's got so now that if you steal $6 they’ll put you in a Jail, but if you steal $10,00* they’ll call you coionel. , The trouble with the church is that it is a vast hospital; it takes all the well oues to take care of the sick ones. You show me a man who keeps the Sabbath •day holy, and I’ll show you a Christian all the week. • The infidelity that hurts is the infidelity of the man who makeB out he’s on God’s side, and then won’t live up. Find me a man preparing himself to hear the gospel, and I can show you a man that is going to be benefited by the gospel. The man who will break one of God's com mandments habitually and continually,' if you will turn him loose, will break them all. AN ACTOR IN POLITICS. How “Bob” Downing llorame “Spartaeos” in “The Gladiator.” Robert Downing, who ployed here last week as “Spartacus,” is an enthusiastic young farmer. He spends his summers on his farm in Prince George’s county, Maryland, two or three hours drive from Washington. His neighbors always get “Bob,” as they call him, to make speeches at picnics, deliver addresses of welcome at church festivals and read the Declaration of Independ ence on the 4th of July, because he has stento rian lungs and is immensely popular in that part of the country. At a inass-meeting one Saturday afternoon in the middle of last summer lie was called on for his views about some proposed change in the county road law. He did not know exactly what the meeting wanted, or which way it leaned, but he saw no way of escaping from a speech. Ac cordingly he decided to hedge on the question, and he started oifwith some general remarks on the advantage of roads and the necessity of keep ing them in good order. He dilated on the neces sity for exercising economy, and wound up with a spirited declamation of Artemus Ward’s graphic description of Horace Greely’s ride over the mountains. The applause was deafening, and somebody in the crowd jumped up on a wagon and nominated Downing for the legisla ture, the election for which was eighteen mouths off. The meeting, however, indorsed him and promised to send him to Annapolis when the proper time came. Borne friends, who were mem bers of a political club in Washington, heard of the matter a few days later, aud volunteered their help. Downing rather liked the idea. He had been traveling around over the country for ten years and was not disinclined to follow the example of Cincinnatus and exchange the tragic sword for the handles of the plow. One day, however, Joe Mack, the manager, drove over from Washington to see him. Downing mentioned his idea of giving up his profession. The principal object of the manager’s visit was to talk Down ing into buying a part interest in “The Gladia tor,” which belonged to the MeCuIlough estate, and starring the young agriculturist as “Sparta cus.” Downing did not looWavorably upon the project at first, and it took Mack the greater part of two days to induce him to give up the farm and legislature, and then it was only at the sac rifice of two of Mack’s imported pointer dogs which Downing had long coveted. COMM1TTEB OK INVESTIGATION. TheC'harges Against Judge Esin and Others to be Thoroughly Investigated, Atlanta Constitution. The joint committee of the geueral assembly, appointed to investigate the charges against Judge J. C, Fain, of the Cherokee circuit, and Hon. W. R. Rankin, a former senator, met at the -capitol yesterday afternoon at 3:30 o’clock. Sen ator Hawkes was elected chairman. The question of the election of a secretary caused a brief dis cussion. It was then agreed to employ Mr. G. Y. Tigner, stenographer of the Chattahoochee cir cuit. The committee adopted a resolution, admitting to its sessions the defendants’ counsel, and the newspaper reporters. A sub committee was ap pointed to secure a room in which to hold the sesssons. An adjournment was then had until this morning at 11 o’clock. Interviews with members of the committee led to the information that the investigation will he very searching. It is intended that no restrictive rules shall be adopted, but that those who have brought the charges and the defendants also shall havfe the fullest opportunity of presenting their cases. One of tile members said, “We in tend to let down the bars, so that all the evidence obtainable, pro and con, shall be heard. It is our puipose to get at the truth, let it hurt whom it may. The charge:, are grave, and the defend ants, as far as known, aru prominent- Anything short of the most thorough investigation would be a great mistake.” A Fire In Charlestaa. Charleston, November 16.—A fire this afternoon partially destroyed 100 bales of compressed cotton, lying In the street in front of the Champion cotton press. The loss is about $1000, and is covered by in surance in foreign companies. England.

I'hiladolphU’s Civil Service Squabble—list Reply to Charges of Fraud. Philadelphia, November 15.—'The charges made by Chairman W. W. Mont- elul 16 V’ ivil Service Reform Asso ciation of this city, to the civil service com mission at Washington, that applicants lor examination for positions In the postal service here have been furnished with the questions to be asked, that the local bourd <-. xunuii-rs had been guilty of other ir regularities, and that the civil service rules hud been violnted in making appoint ments because nearly ull those appoint ments nre democruts, have called out re sponses from Postmaster Hnrrity and from the civil service examiners. Mr. Harrlty replies in the following cool language : Dear Sir; Referring to your communi cation published in the newspapers of this city on tlie 10th lust., addressed to the civil service commission, Washington, D. C., I find that it contains charges of fraud in the conduct of tho examinations held F ebruary 25,211 and 27, und March 3,1886, at Philadelphia, of candidates for appoint- rnonts to till vacancies in the post office of this city, and the examination papers were to the fact of Judge Peck ham's election and verified the accuracy of the previous dispatolies from this point on this subject.

A Tammany Loaili-r Visits the I’roslilcnt nt the Latter’s Solicitation—Uo Talks to Him Plainly, ami Comes Away lioro Anil-Administration Than Ever. New Youk, November 14—The World’s Washington correspondent has the follow ing dispatch in to-duy’s paper; Mr. J. J. O’Donohue and Congressman-elect llourke Cochran returned to New York on the congressional train this afternoon. Mi • O’Donohuc, at the special invitation of the president, spent last evening at the white house. 1 asked Mr. O'llonohuo to-tlay to eivo me an account of his visit. This visit had more than ordinary significance, because an hour before the invitation was sent to the lender an interview with him had ap peared in one of the evening papers here, In which he had declared himself as against Mr. Cleveland and his policy. Mr. CVDonohue said that they hud u very de lightful evening at the white house. His reception was more ot a social than a po litical one. He was presented to Mrs. Cleveland and the family. '4 hey sat down in contented family circle, and had music and small talk. During tiecourseof the evening the president and Mr. Donohue had some conversation upon political af fairs. Mr. Donohue talked very plainly to the president. He toM him with great frankness “iatsaWw Baltimore, November 44.—Rev- Alfred if he: had boon.™ togt^ew Yorlc^yaO.aft was consecrated in the cathedral in this j qould'havecarried the state. He pointed opened and made known to certain appli cants. I desire to ask, and claim that I have a right to expect, to be promptly in formed by you whether 3uch charge is in tended to in any manner apply to me. If so, yoti will doubtless have no hesitation in affirming it; if not, you should distinctly say se. I am aware that the communication charges me with a violation of rule 8 of the amended civil service rules (providing against discrimination because of political opinion or affiliation), in that an over whelming majority of the new appointees in this office have been democrats. This charge of “violation” can be quickly,easily and properly disposed of. I am also aware that under the civil service law, rules and regulations the charge of “fraud” in the conduct of the examinations applies to the members of the local board of examiners, but the language of your communication seems to justify the inference in the public mind that such charge is made aguinst me as well; and 1 claim to be entitled to an explicit answer if such charge be intended to be applied to me by you and your col leagues, go that I may pursue such remedies as are open to me for proper vindication. I may properly add that I am informed by the members of the board of examiners that no disclosure whatever of papers or of their contents was made by any member thereof to any person whatever, and that of all applicants and visitors (the latter to the number of perhaps 200 at various times and from va rious places) the only persons who asked to be furnished with the papers which contained the questions to be answered were Messrs. W. W. Montgomery, W. Her bert Washington and R. Francis Wood, all, as you are aware, members of ydur as sociation. For what purpose they would have been used I do not know, nor will I make any insinuation. I am sure they were desired for proper purposes, but I submit it is quite as fair to presume against innocence in their case as in that of others. Respectfully, William F. Harkity, Postmaster. The local examining board makes a long reply, in which warm words are used after this fashion: The local board of examiners desires to lir.gness to be advised, and said that ho would do all in his power to secure har- | uinny ami satisfaction. 1 asked Mr. O’Don- i obuo what was the effect of the visit, to the I white iiofisc upon his personal opinion re- j gurdingtbe president. “1 went up there,” he said in reply, “an | anti-Cleveland man, and I came away i more of nil anti Cleveland man than ever, i I leave Washington to-day opposed to him I und his policy, and I don’t care who knows | it. I am glad I came over here. 1 found democrats from all sections of the country, and they are all of one way of thinking— ; they are opposed to Cleveland. I have just ; come out of a conference of representative democrats, where wo discussed the general situation. There was not a man who stood up for Cleveland or who would be for him in 1888 under any circumstances.” A SUIT LONG PENDING.

The case of Jones vs. Lamar, which was decided in favor of the defendant by the supreme court of Georgia Inst week, has been removed to the United States courts. *18,000 are involved in the suit the parties interested in which belong to one of the most widely known families in the state. Jones is a resident of New York, and is the administrator of the executor of G. B. Lamar, who died several years ago. Prior to the breaking out of the war G. B. Lamar was quite wealthy. In 1859 his son, Charles A. L. Lamar, gave a mortgage to the Bank of the Republic for *120,000. In 1865 Charles A. L. Lumar was killed in one of the last tights of the war. After the war G. B. Lamar was allowed $000,000 for cotton seized by the federals and a little later he bought up the mortgage against his son’s estate. After G. B. Lamar’s death his executor claimed that the son’s estate was indebted to the G. B. Lamar estate the amount of the mortgage less what had been paid on it, perhaps $10,000.

The reply gives the history of the exam- I illations of this year in detail and also 1 mentions the attempt of members of the I Civil Service Reform Association to obtain [ copies of the examination papers. It shows ; that tiic utmost care was taken to save the | examination papers from being stolen or j opened surreptitiously. It draws attention ; to a letter of Charles Hyman, chief exam-| inor, to the board of examiners, dated at ; Washington, March 23, acknowledging their answer to the charges previously I made against them and pussing an en- comium on their honesty and trusuworthi- ■ ness. In conclusion the members of the board give vent to their feelings in lan guage which needs no interpretation. There has never been a time when you j might not have secured all the informa- . tion contained in this letter. But not one of your committee ever had the manliness ! to make any application in writing or to [ enquire of any member of the board os to j the truth of the matters which you allege, j You have rather preferred to get your facts from partisan and unfair attacks in the newspapers and from “people on the | streets,” as you naively express it. You ; carried your budget to tile civil service i commission months ago, only to be told I that its contents were trivial aud uuworthy ■ of serious consideration. You have sought notoriety in the public press, but there has never apparently been a time when j you endeavored to ascertain the truth. You have shielded yourselves behind a refuge of lies in order that you might attack the character of men holding high and responsible positions under the federal government. No man who fills any office in which recourse to the civil service law is necessary for the filling of vacancies has ever received a single encouraging word from you. Even the humble instruments of the law in the post office and custom house have been subjected to your animadversions. Mr. Dorman B. Eaton, late president of the civil service commission, took occasion to rebuke you at a public dinner a few months ago for your unwarranted attack upon a high public official. It may be that reformers by profession can do these things, but gentlemen and men of dignity and character who really believe in the principles of civil service reform have never yet successfully resorted to them and won the confidence of the public. ve got In their answer the defendants put in an item in the nature of u set, off amount ing to $30,000.
