FARM VILLAGES.
Rev. W. A. Candler Writes a Strong
Letter Favoring Them.
Most of fhe people in Georgia live in
the country, and Georgia country peo¬
ple are mostlv Baptists and Methodists.
Of the 130,000 white members of the
Methodist Episcopal church, south, in
Georgia, only 35,000 are members of
station churches. The remaining 95
000 are in the circuits and rural missions.
The importance of these facts is en¬
hanced when we remember the wise
words of a recent sociologist: “The
country is the foundation of the na¬
tion's life. Only the agricultural class
possess permanent vitality; from the
overflow the city population is formed,
displayed, aud renewed. Any city
population, if left to itself, will die out
iu four generations.”.
The success of urban chauges de¬
pends upon the success of our welfare country
circuits and missions. The of
our state rests upon the moral and re¬
ligious condition of our rural popula¬
tion.
Are we doiDg what we. ought in the
development of our country people?
I fear not. Something must be of wrong
or we would not see so many them
fleeing to the cities. J. Holland
Some years ago Dr. G.
wrote of this national migration city¬
ward thus: “The forsaking of the farm
for city life is one of the great evils of
the time, and so far it has received no
appreciable check. Every youug man
apparently who thinks he can get a
living in the city, or at the minor ceutres
of population, quits his lonely home
upon the farm and joins the multitude.
(>Dce iu the city he never returns. aud
Notwithstanding the confinement
straightened condition of his new life,
he clings to it until he dies, adding his
family to the permanent population of
his new home.
A city population can neither be
coaxed nor driven into agricultural
pursuits. It is not that they are afraid
of work. The average worker of the
city toils more than the average farmer
in any quarter of the country, lie is
neither fed nor lodged as well as the
farmer. He is less independent than
the farmer. He is a bond slave to his
employers, and his condition--; yet the
agricultural life has no charms for him.”
The ease is not overstated, and here¬
in is found the explanation of the de¬
cline and death of many country
churches. Their best members moved
to town. Many of these members,
who, when iu the country churches
were active workers, iu the city
churches ceased to be religious forces.
Not a few cease to be religious at all.
A migration so harmful to Christian
enterprise should and arrested so perilous modified to Christian
life be or so
as to reduce its evils to a minimum.
But we cannot intelligently set about
arresting it or modifying it until we
have ascertained its cause. What then
is the reason for it? Dr. Holland an¬
swers: “The reason can only be found,
we believe, in the social leanness, or
social starvation of American agricul¬
tural life. The American farmer, in
all his planning and all his building has
never made provision for life. He has
only considered the means of getting a
living. He gives his children the ad¬
vantages of schools, uot recognizing
the fact, that these very advantages call
into life a new set of social forces.
* * * If the American farmer
wishes to keep his children near him,
he must learn the difference between
living aud getting a living.” farmers
lie continues: “How shall
manage to keep their children near
them? How can wc discour
age the influx of uiinec
essary, nay burdensome, popu¬
lations into the cities? We answer:
By making agricultural life attractive.
Fill the farm house with periodicals reading
and books. Establish central
rooms or neighborhood clubs. Estab
a bright active social life that shall
give some significance to labor. Above
all, build as far as possible in villages.
It is better to go a mile to one’s daily
labor than to place one’s self a mile from
a neighbor. The isolation of Ameri¬
can farm life is the great curse of that
life, and it falls upon the women with a
hardship that the men cannot appreci¬
ate and drives the educated young
Let no Georgia farmer read these
words with a sense of affront or injury.
They are not contemptuous words, but
words of sympathetic counsel by a
wise and good man. We should profit
by them
The hint at what is called now-a-days
“village farming” is a weighty far sugges¬
tion. Our farmers live too apart.
The old plantation symtem put dreary
distance between neighbors that have
not yet been overcome.
But old homes will continue to be oc¬
cupied. We cannot achieve in a day a
revolution so great as that involved
in changing our present farm haunts for
those of village farmers. Monetary
interests, cherished memories and ten¬
der affections will keep many old
houses in use, however misplaced they

We have one great advantage in

TOWN AND COUNTRY.
Away With Political Aspirants and
Agitors.
That a feeling close akin to enmity,
certainly stronger ban jealousy, be¬
tween town and country exists in Geor¬
gia, no same man will deny. That
slate of affairs is productive of no
good, nay, that it is hurtful to both
parties, will not be denied. That it
may be speedily and permanently desire ob¬
literated, is, or should be, the
aud effort of every light thinking man.
The underlying cause, the “first
cause,” of this condition is politics.
Prior to 1880 there was not this feel¬
ing. When General John B. Gordon
sprang iuto the political arena in oppo¬
sition Major Bacon his shiboleth was
“down|with town rings and court-house
cliques.” From the Tennessee line
to the Florida line, from the Chatta¬
hoochee to the Savannah, in every
county, he proclaimed political to the rights country had
people that their tricks
been taken from them by the
and secret caucuses of these terrible
town rings aud court-house cliques.
All his appeals were to the country
people and with all his powerful elo¬
quence he aroused their passions and
their prejudices. It was something
new in Georgia politics and. “it took
like wild tire.” It made him Govern¬
or. Seeing bis success there were not
wanting others who look it up. Now,
the question arises, who is responsi¬
ble for its perpetuation? We unhesi¬
tatingly answer, both parties—the people.
town people and the country and
When the town people assume as¬
sert that they have all the intelligence,
the country people resent it. When
the country people assume and assert
that they have all the honesty, the
town people resent it. Again, there
is no doubt that the. town people have,
as a rule, from the organization of the
farmer’s alliance, manifested a leel
iug of ill will toward the order in ev¬
erything it has attempted to do. It is
folly to say that the alliance met with
no opposition uulil ii. “went into poli¬
tics.” In their efforts at corporative
buying they were opposed; in where their
efforts to establish exchanges,
they could buy and sell to best advan¬
tage, they were opposed;in their tight
upou the jute trust they were opposed,
and every “town farmer” used jute
bagging whilealliancemeu were bearing
I he burden of the light against the in¬
famous trust. But did not alliancemen,
to some extent at least “begin the war?”
They started out with abuse of the
home merchants. They early adopted
the boycott and in other ways gave of¬
fense to their friends iu the towns.
Then came the political struggle. A
few men had joined 1 he alliance for
political effect only. They had in view
no object other than their own political
advancement. To secure this ii was
necessary to appeal to the prejudices in
which had already been aroused the
memorable Citnp i n of 188G. Ill t
there were political aspirants aspirants among
the non-alliance element,
who could not become members of the
order. It became necessary for them
to appeal to the prejudices of non-alli
ancemen—to the town people—and
thus these political aspirants, fanned represen¬ aud
ting hoih elements, have
added fuel when possible. Political This is
“about the size of it.” aspi
riants —demagogues—who care nothing
for the people Hying either in
town or country, have played one
against the other and as far as pos¬
sible are still tryiug lo run the same
game. The only way to stop a thing is
to stop it, A spirit of conservatism and
of compromise can settle the trouble.
A spitii of dictation and of bulldozing
will widen the breach. Let’s meet one
another half way. Let’s quit listen¬
ing to leaders” (political aspirants and
agitators) for a while and “get and togeth¬
er.” The interests of town coun¬
try must be idt n ical. The one cannot
prosper while the other languishes.
There are good meu in town and in
country; there are bad men in each.
Watch the men who whisper in vour
ears “watch them country fellows” or
“watch them town fellows.” In nom¬
inating or voting for men for office get
the best man, without regard thinking to bis
place of residence. Quit of
where you live or where “the other fel¬
low” lives and follow the golden—“do do
to others as you would have them to
you.” Let’s all quit our foolishness,
now that politics are about done with
for two years .—(Juthbert Liberal Enter¬
prise.

THE BONNET BLUE.
The day is done, the gloaming hour
For lovers’ trysts is near.
And she hath left her turret bower
To meet her cavalier.
She is the daughter of the earl
For whom the counties sue,
And he’s tlve grandson of a churl,
And wears a Bonnet Blue.
Oh, sweeter is ttie whispered vow
For what might come between—
No likelier youth than he, i trow.
Was e’er in greenwood seen.
No grace than hers is more divine.
No heart more fond and true;
She lets tHe lordly suitors pine
To pledge a Bonuet Blue.
She thinks upon her lofty slate
And drops a pensive tear;
She looks upon her lowly mate.
And slie is straight in cheer.
He holds her in his strong embrace.
Ho plights his troth anew;
Siie dreads not danger nor disgrace.
Beside her Bonnet Blue.
Next morn the bower maidens wait
In vain their mistress’ call;
The servers stand with cup and plate.
The vassals throng the bull.
But where is she, the proudest born.
The fairest Scotland knew?
She wedded ere the blush of morn
Her dear loved Bonnet Blue!

When a Cent Is Not a Cent.
“Come on, boys,” tie said, “I’ve just won
ten dollars and want to blow it in.” ‘How
did you win it?” the boys yelled m a
chorus, as they put on their coats and
started out. “With this," holding up a
copper coin that looked like an ordinary
cent. “Poor old Johnson came up to bur
row a dollar, and, as 1 didn’t want to refuse
him outright, I told him I didn’t, have a
cent. lie didn't believe me of course and
said so. To convince him 1 hauled out
this coin and played with it. absentiniiided
lv. ‘j ‘You have got a cent,’ Brown put in
swear 1 haven’t,,’ I declared. I’ll be!
you ten dollars you have.’ ‘Good. It’s a
bet. Ten even I haven’t a cent.’ Well, I
win. What’s that you’ve got in your
hand? Ha, ha, ha!’ The laugh was on me
for a little while, as I pretended to play
nervously with the coin and tried to hide
it. ‘Hold on,’ cried Brown, ‘let us have
that ten dollars. Wo see your cent. Pay
up and look pleasant.’ holding the
“‘All right,.’ 1 said, out coin
‘If this is one cent I’ll pay the ten dollars
Then, as they looked at it, the laugh
turned on Brown. He took it gracefnil ,
and here’s his ten dollars.” The hoys
looked at the coin and saw on one side i lie
conventional Indian head with the thirteen
stars, and the date—1803. On the otliei
was tlie wreath, in which were t he words
“one cent.” But on closer inspection they
found above the “one” the word "not” in
•small raised letters, so that the inscription
read “not one cent.” It was one of the
coins issued during the war by large Arms
for private circulation.—New York Trib

How Sunken Get Over Ground.
Although the snake appears to have no
legs or feet, it may tie said to be practically
supplied with upward of a hundred pair?
of them. In fact each joint of the back
bone bears a pair of ribs, which are mobile
anil have their points attached to the inuei
surface of one of the large transverse plate
like scales which clothe the under surface ol
the body. Tims, by the movements of the
ribs attached to it, each plate cap be drawn
forward and its margin applied to the
ground. By the successive application ol
these multitudinous plates the body can
be drawn forward in a st raight line wit Ii
out its being thrown into undulations from
side to side.
But rapid movements are also effected
by such undulations, and serpents can, try
pressure and appropriate muscular action
climb trees aud somet imes spring forward
They also swim easily by lateral flexures
but no serpents advance by vertical bend
ings of the body, though tliey are so often
drawn in such an attitude —Quarterly Re

Greek aticl Roman Style*.
The dress of Greek and Roman ladies
never varied in cut,. Generation after gen
e rat ion. being convinced that the mosl
suitable cut bad been discovered, wore it
The only difference between one woman
and anothei was in the material and in the
arrangement of colors. Why not go hack
to the Greek dress? It is far prettier than
any fashion of modern times. The reason
why this will not lie done is that it is
against the interests of a herd of male and
female extortioners who profit vastly by
keeping women in servitude. Lady Car
lisle and Lady Florence Dixie, those twin
apostlesses of female suffrage, would be
tar bettei employed in getting women to
dress sensibly than in endeavoring to pro
cure for them votes and a legal right to he
judges and mem hers of parliament.— Henry
Lahouchere in London Truth.
A Good Resolution.
I heard a man say the other day that he
formed a resolution early in life never to
get a moment’s pleasure at the expense of
a moment’s pain of any living creature,
and he owed his instinct for kindness, he
added, to his big hearted mother and his
noble father. They would never tolerate
an ungenerous action. It is a glorious
thing to be able to trace back our good
qualities to parents. How we love them
for itl For my part, I wish no better fu
ture than to be loved and honored by my
children.—Mary K. Spencer iu St. Louis
Globe-Democrat.
