SOWING AND REAPING, THE TEXT

Avenue Pas
tor’s Powerful
Sermon.
REV. RICHARD ORME FLINN,
Pastor of the North Avenue Pres
byterian Church.
"Be not deceived; God Is not mocked,
for whatsoever a man soweth that shall
he also reap."
Thesp words, which Mr. Moody used
to call the most splemn In all the Bible,
formed the basis of a searching ar
raignment by Rev. Richard Orme Fllnp
In the course of his sermon Sunday
morning at North Avenue Presbyterian
church. He said: •
•That shall he also reap—nothing
different, nothing less. Like produces
like; cotton seed produces cotton, this
ties produce thistles. It Is Inevitable
and Inexorable. But the reaping Is
different from the Rowing. There is
more of It, for the Beed reproduces
Itself a thousandfold. Tears ago In
Egypt as they unwrapped the cloth
which bound a mummy they found a
single grain of wheat. They took it
and planted It, after Its entombment of
thousands of years, and when It grew
they gathered the kernels of wheat and
replanted them. These were watched,
the kernels gathered and replanted, and
today they have fields of wheat every
year from that one grain that fell from
the wrappings of the mummy years
ago.
•'And so with deeds. It is illustrated
all through life. It Is amazing how
quickly the Interest on money will equal
the original capital If you leave It and
let It compound. A little money In
vested In childhood, if left undisturbed,
will be a competence by the time you
are old. It Is a soleiftn thing to reflect
that what we are putting into life will
Increase a thousandfold.
The Present and the Future.'
" ‘That shall ho also reap.’ What ’.ve
put Into the present we must take out
of the future. Tour today must de
termine your tomorrow. Tou can make

made it, you can neVer unmake It. Have

Plan for Tomorrow.
And if you desire spiritual prefer
ment for tomorrow you- must plan for
It today. Are you doing it? Com
paratively how much of your time la
given to laying hold of eternal verities,
and preparing for your meeting with
your King? What you desire In the
future you must put In today. Plant
then for spiritual affairs, today, and
you will reap tomorrow infinitely more
than you have sown. God himself Is
the guarantee, and no power In earth
or hell can take out of your tomorrow
what you have planted today.
But to some of us It is not so much
a hope os a terrible alarm In the In
exorable certainly of these great laws,
for no matter what we may put In to
day for tomorrow's reaping there lies
behind the past, the wasted years of
folly and neglect Some of you have
grown gray In careless, Godless, selfish
living; you have made no adequate
provision for eternity. Tour best ef
forts, your best time have been devoted
to sensuous affairs. How can you es
cape? Here comes In the Gospel.
Christ Is the answer. If you take Him
He reaps for you what you have sown,
and you reap for Him what He has
sown. He gathers your wickedness
and weeds unto Himself, and you
gather His righteousness and reward
unto yourself. "Therefore If any man
ho in Christ he Is a new creature; old
things are passed away and behold all
things art become new,"

sented In congress by Gordon Lee won
the sobriquet of “The Bloody Seventh"
because of Its heated political battles,
For more than a dozen years past the
name would not apply, but events cast
ing shadows ahead just now point to
the old strenuous mix-ups and a re
vival of the aptness of the appellation—
“The Bloody Seventh." For a dozen
years Judgo Maddox represented the
district, and did It so well and handled
so perfectly his machinery, that what
ever opposition cropped out now and
then was so weak that it did not even
make the Judge hustle, though he be
longs to the school of polltlcfans that
do hustle, whether the enemy Is for
midable or not.
Judge Maddox voluntarily retired and
Gordon Lee won tbs nomination. Som4
very Interesting Inside history of Ills
race must go unwritten, but he suc
cessfully sidetracked all opposition.
When his second race came on Judge A.
W. Fite, of Bartow, oppoeed him, but
was so badly defeated that politician*
of the Seventh say that Judge Fite was
for all time eliminated from congres-
elonal possibility In the district.
With the race Juet a year and a half
off. muttering* of the coming storm are
heard. It Is practically assured that
Judge Moao Wright, of the Rome cir
cuit, will shy his caster Into the ring
for Congressman Lee's Job. It Is equal
ly assured at this time that the Chlck-
amauga man will accept the gage of
battle.'
Further Interesting complications are
hinted at by the possibility of Hon.
Seaborn Wright getting into the racer
He Is a brother of Judge Wright, and
both are mighty shifty men In the game
of politics and In the arena of debate.
Many prefer Judge Wright's style of
oratory to that of his better known
brother. Seaborn Wright Is a won
derful speaker, with a fervid style,
clear, bell-llke voice and a limpid flow
of language. Judge Wright has force,
beauty of rounded periods and a win
some manner that wins his hearers. It
would bo a great thing it these two
eloquent brothers should oppose each
other.
Congressman Lee has mode a fine
record in his short service and has
built up a pretty adequate working
machinery In his district. He Is not to
be classed with cither of the Wright*
as an orator, but he Is a good logical
speaker and Is a first-class mixer—and
mixing Is one of the prime prerequisites
to political success.
Seaborn Wright has been mentioned
a great deal In connection with the next
senatorial race, when Senator Clay'
successor Is chosen. Mr. Wright has
never committed himself on the ques
tion. but It Is natural that he should
have ambitions for this high honor, and
ill not
hesitate to get Into the race. But If
It does not seem an auspicious time
for him In that connection. It Is known
that he would not be averse to repre'
sent the Seventh in Congress.
Recently rumors have been in drew
lation In Rome 'that Judge Wright
would resign his Judgshlp to gft Into
the congressional race, and that .Judge
Maddox would succeed him by appoint
ment as Judge of the Rome circuit, a
position he held several years prior to
his election to congresn. Reports of
Judge Wright’s falling health started
these rumors, but Judge Wright denies
that he has any Intention of resigning.
His health Is said to be improving also.
At any rate. Interesting development*
are expected In the Seventh In the next
few months.

In his sermon at the Capitol Ave
nue Baptist church Sunday afternoon.
Rev. T. T. Martin, an evangelist who
has been conducting revival services
during the past week, called attention
to an article in The Georgian of Satur.
day, by Rov. Everett Dean Ellenwood,
pastor of the Universalist church.
Mr. Martin characterized Dr. Ellen'
wood's article as an attack on the
faith of other denominations, and
slated that he would follow this by
other remarks on the subject In hts
sermon Monday night, demanding that
The Georgian repudiate the article In
question.
Tho Georgian has no desire to en>
lire In a discussion of theology nor
to enter into a.controversy amng de
nominations, but Its columns are open
to ministers of the gospel as to all
reputable cltliens.
Both Mr. Martin and Dr. Ellenwood
have written communications on the
subject, whleh are given In full here:
Rev. Martin's Statement.
At the request of a representative of
Tho Georgian, I gladly make this
statement concerning the article In this
morning's Constitution with reterenco
to statements I mode yesterday at the
mass meeting of the Capitol Avenue
Baptist church.
Let me state that I made no attack
on Mr. Ellenwood. Mr. Ellenwood made
a most uncalled-for and slanderous at
tack on the very foundation of Chris
tlanlty aa held by Catholics, Congre-
gatlonallsts, Episcopalians, Lutherans,
Disciples, United Brethren, Presbyte
rlnna Methodists, Baptists and others,
and I shall tonight simply defend the
fundamental, most sacred beliefs, of
these Christians against this deliberate,
slanderous attack. ,
As to Tho Georgian, whllo it does not
Indorse what its contributors say, yst It
has selected Mr. Ellenwood as ono of
its regular contributors for Its Satur
day afternoon paper, and Is thus fur
nlshlng this man a platform from
which to make this outrageous attack
on the fundamental convictions of the
leading Christian denominations of this
city. The Georgian la the avenuo
through which these attacks are got
ten Into the homes 'of the people of At'
lanta. I stated yesterday that The
Georgian should be given full time or
the privilege of repudiating these ut
terances nnd putting a stop to such at
tacks through its columns; that arti
cles do get Into papers without editors
knowing their contenta, which the edi
tor would repudiate 1 , but that specially
In the case of a regular contributor is
this necessary; that If It was not cor
rected, then would be time for the self,
respecting Christians of these dpnoml
nations In this city to act.
To attack in an uncallsd-for way tho
very fundamentals of these denomlna'
tlons. It brands tho noble people of
these denominations as being "so en
tirely occupied by cowardice and self
ishness” as to "leave no room for grat
itude which belongs among the higher
virtues," to Insinuate that In their caaes
there Is an “utter loss of courage and
self-respect;" to sneer at the very
foundation as a "fetish." are things
which surely The Georgian will not fail
to repudiate, things which I can not let
pass unchallenged.
T. T. MARTIN.
Dr. Ellenwood'* Reply,
To the Editor of The Georgian:
Kindly allow me Just a word of reply
to the delicately worded compliment
paid mo by Dr. T. T. Martin In his
sermon at Capitol Avenuo Baptist
church, Sunday afternoon. The “Con
stitution's" report of Dr. Martin's at
tack of hysteria Is certainly amusing,
though not of necessity edifying. It
reminds one vividly of tho days of our
boyhood when, eonvulsed with Impotent
rage, we .used to make faces, stick out
our tongues and say very unkind per
sonal things about those with whom
we differed in opinion. But, the Joy
of It all was that, after we had "come
to ourselves," we were always better
rriends than before. If Dr. Martin will
give' me half a chance, I think we. too,
could be good friends. He probably
dislikes me because he does not know
me.
But there Is In Dr. Merlin's ut
terances of Sunday afternon, a revela'
tlon of u narrowness of vision and
shortness of perspective whlfch Is to me
much more lamentable than any theo
logical limitation of which he may bs
guilty. His frenzied and fanatical ap
peal to his hearers to "boycott" a great
dally paper, which Is at once recognised
as one of the- strongest moral forces
In our nation, merely because some of
the sentiments and theories of one of
Its occasional writers msy fall with a
new and alien sound upon their con
sciousness, Is, to put it iflost kindly and
charitably, a revelation of a childish
and Insufficient conception of the func
tlons of such a great and growing dally
»per as The Atlanta Georgian and
'few*.
I have never "talked theology" with
any of the editors of The Georgian, nor
have I at any time, conceived the idea
that The Georgian had any desire
whatever to champion or advocate my
special brand of religious opinion.
Unless I had been firmly convinced
that “all preachers look alike" to the
editors and publishers of this paper, I
should never have been willing to con
tribute to* Its columns, from week to
"A - dally newspaper, correctly con
ceived and administered. Is a public
forum. Whenever It becomes partisan
In its policy. It must, of necessity, loss
power. Therefore, .so long a* Dr. Mar
tin confines hlc utterances' to perrons!
abuse and vilification. I have for him
only a feeling of admiration that he
should so vigorously combat one whose
theories he conceives to be dangerous
MITCHELL SNUBBED
AT
Georgian Indignant at His
Treatment on Open
ing Day. ;
A dispatch from Norfolk. Va., to The
Columbus, Qa., Enquirer-Sun, states
that Commissioner W. N. Mitchell, of
Atlanta, was snubbed at the opening
of the Jamestown Exposition last Fri
day. The dispatch follows:
Norfolk, Va., April 27.—Claiming that
hs waa outrageously treated by the offi
cials of the Jamestown Exposition
Company, Mr. W. N. Mitchell, head of
the Georgia commission to the expoel
tlon, denounced the treatment alleged
have be'en accorded him. Mr.
Mitchell averred that he was snubbed
In tho grand stand and also at the au
ditorium, where President Roosevelt
held a reception.
In the absence of Governor Terrell, of
Georgia, Mr. Mitchell represented the
chief executive of that state at tho
opening exercises. Mr. Mitchell was
so excited that he called the exposition
management a lot of hoodlums.
"I was treated shamefully," said he.
"When I went to the grand stand they
paid no attention to me, and I had
to find a seat as best I could. The
worst of It all was when I attempted
to get Into the auditorium to attend the
president's reception. I told the man
at tho door who I waa, and ha declined
to allow me In the building. He said
he did not care who I was.
Hero wo Georgians have Induced
tho president to moke another trip to
the exposition on Georgia Day, and
this Is what we got. Why, we got for
Georgia that which Now York failed to
secure—tne president’s presence tor the
second time at the exposition. There
Is bad management somewhere, and
■uch treatment should be corrected at
once."
The leading officials declare that
they know nothing of what Mr. Mitchell
claimed. They said their order* were
positive that all state commissioners
should be treated royally, and if there
has been negligence they say that It
will be Investigated and the blame
placed.

CENTRAL RETURNS
NOT SATISFACTORY
On £ property valuation running
above sixteen millions, the Central of
Georgia railroad shows a net Increaso
of 2470,957.18 In Its returns tbls year
over that of last year.
And this Inpludes 23 miles of new
road between Greenville and Newnan.
On thla a return of 34,000 per mile Is
mad* and on the aid lino 33,000. Upon
this part of the returns at least Comp'
trailer General Wright has given no-
tlce that it Is not satisfactory.
For 1906, tangible and franchise re
turns were made for 315,814,665, with
cosh and bonds for 3538,027,68, making
a total for the year of 316.352,892.68.
For 1907 property and franchise Is re
turned at 816,680,840. with cash and
bonds valued at 3143.099.86, a total
return of 316,821.849.86.
Tho returns fix the franchise on the
new road of 23 miles at 872,898. To
this Is added tho franchise of 1908,
83,230,323, making the total franchise
for this year 33,303,321. Further than
the return on the mileage valuation.
General Wright has not passsd, as the
figures have to bs compared and veri

Other Returns.
The Rome Railway and Light Com'
pony mado very Incomplete returns.
The return Is for 3104,066.23, with no
value whatever attached to tho fran
chise: Thla Is not satisfactory to the
comptroller. Recently tho company
passed Into the hands of Louisville cap.
Itallsls, and Is bonded for 3500,000, with
3600,000 of common stock. No detailed
statement Is furnished, so the returns
must go back for correction.
The Rome Municipal Gas Company
returns Its property at 336,000 and fran
chise at 81.000. It shows a net profit
on the business last year of only
3105.13.

however much I may doubt the worth
and Justness of his conclusions. But.
when he so far forgets that broad spirit
of fairness and toleration constantly
evinced by his Master, ss to make a
Pharisaical attack, through the fren
zied enttauslaam of his hearers, upon
a medium of public education, I feel
that he merits a rebuke.
"Let ms say, In conclusion, that I re
gret exceedingly that any part of my
article In The Georgian should have
been construed as a wholesale abuse
and condemnation of those whose theo
logical opinion* differ from my own.
Far be It from me to decry the faith
dear to any child of God; or to destroy
even the wildest superstition which
may keep a man In the way of moral
canity. Many of my dearest friends
are loyal members of churches whose
theology Is Impossible for me, and,
though they do not often hesitate to
say unkind and untrue things about
my Ideas of God and of His will con
cerning us, yerl am exceedingly sorry
If my xeel to state my own case e*

Into e lapse of kindness end courtesy

“Because I believe that a dally news
paper Is not the piece for a religious
controversy. I am also sorry that my
article should be construed as taking n
controveraal form, and desire to assure
my readers In The Georgian that It was
not so conceived.
