Sanford. Jesup. la. * Dear Str: 1 have read your article in The 3emi-Weekly Journal tn regard to the elder brother and the prodigal son. ad iressed to Mrs. W. H. Felton, of Car-, ersvUle. Ga., asking her for a revision of the elder brother. As I have not teen Four request answered through The Beml- Weekly Journal I desire to give you some scripture in regard to the same. Cain is s figure of the elder brother, and Abel is a figure of the younger brother and Ishmael is a figure of the elder brother, and Isaac is a figure of the younger Brother. The sons above mentioned are a figure of the Inner and outer man. Paul •aid the outer man perished, but the inner man is renewed day by day. the carnal mind is enmity against God. for ft is not subject to the law of God, neither in deed can be. It is writen that Abraham bad two eons, the one by a bondmaid, the other by a free woman, but he who was of the bondwoman was bom after the flesh, but he of the fre* woman was by promise. Jerusalem which is abcv« is free, which is the mother of us all Paul •aid. now we. brethren, as Isaac was. are the children of promise, but as then he that was born after the fiesta persecuted him that was born after the Spirit, even so it is now The above scripture is an alegory. which has a spiritual meaning, or a figurative discourse, or representation, tn which the words signify something beyond their literal meaning. So is the parable of Christ, written by St. Luke. Ifith chapter. While the younger aon was at his father’s house he represent* a child before It < knows good from evil. When he left his father’s house, he represents a soul, that is dead in trespasses and in sins. His return to his father's house represents a soul that is born of the Spirit. His father said. "This my son was dead, and is alive again.” I Will Just say in conclusion this sub ject is too grand ft* me tb write upon,. unless I could have more space for expla nation. Yours respectfully. W. P- WIGLEY. Atlanta and the President-Elect It may be safely affirmed that the city of Atlanta put Its "best foot foremost’* to entertain Judge Taft. Perhaps it only would cover the subject to say it put all Its feet in front to do him honor, and at the. wind-up the president-elect felt ob liged to show the Capital City elub people what he eould do with bis two stout feet also. If I weighed 296 pounds (which weight the presjuent acknowledges) I sup pose dancing would be the last perform ance I should attempt at a great big par ty, but there is no accounting for tastes. As a presidential exhibit I suppose I could still prefer to attempt the waits to riding 9$ miles in one calendar day, as President Roosevelt performed on horse back one day of the last Week to show what he colld do. I expect rhe president-elect is fond of the dance and Mr. Roosevelt, we know, is deyoted V> Rough Rider "" but neither effort has added one jot qr little to their future fame or exalted rep utations. Thirty years ago I became acquainted with a gray-haired lady in Washington city. Her husband was an assistant sec retary in some one of the departments under President Buchanan at the time when the prince of Wales made a visit to the United States. She was a dancer at the state bail, and her children showed me a sample of her ball dress and some of the jewelry she wore on that occasion. While I knew her only as a sad-faced, wrinkled woman, these adornments were cherished because she could say that she danced with the prince of Wales (now King Edward of England), and wore those pretty trinkets. They were all proud of the fact th a - , she was a partner of the young 17-year old lad. <ho was allowed to come abroad by his royal mother. Queen Victoria, to see the new world. In the whirligig of time fortune fled from the family, the husband had been confined in an insane asylum for many hopeless years and sorrow was written on every fine of her lace, but she still remembered that eventful night wnen tn« managers of the ball selected her as a tiffing partner for this callow sprig of rayolty to dance with in Washington city before the war. So it will be a lively remembrance for the two handsome Atlanta ladies who waltzed with the president-elect at thv Capital City Hub ball and their children will preserve the jewelry and scrape of their batt dresses to show to those who like to hear of such honors and decora tions In the years to come. And the big preachers sang coon songs and the big lawyers told dialect stories. It was surely a time of general relax ation. so the president, to keep even felt obliged to do something oil? of the com mon and he danced his 296 pounds as gracefully as his avoirdupois allowed. I doubt if he has seen his own feet for a good many years of accumulating ponderously, but I'll warrant there were several hundred eyes fastened on them as he whirled his handsome partners over the waxed floors of the tony dance hall in Atlanta. With a ’possum supper, pul pit coon songs ano a dancing 296 pouno president, the show war extraordinary, even for Atlanta.

It doesn’t take a smart mathematician to decide that lhe bottom of the strong box will soon show bare places, and it will mean national bankruptcy before many moons shall wax and wane. If the facts were known, it is more than likely we are now running the ship of state under bare poles or promises to pay. It is a general grab game that is going on, right under the nose of congress, and it is pitiful to know that each one of these congressmen are grabbing at a fed eral approprition for something down where they came from and grabbing fu riously, too. <• <* The senator or representative who can not show up with a successful grab Is more than likely to be censured for his inability, so It 'is a matter of political necessity to get a hand in the general grab b»xg and bring U out with all that can be grasped of Ki contents. Grab quick and grab hard' it the program of the day we live in. . ..« - .. The pension business is carried on in 1 grab-bag fashion. After a pension law yer gets the pensioner on the general roll, with his big fee collected, the next move, is to get an increase of pension. It is the old cry of the horse-leech’s daugh ter for "More! More!’’/ Congress is flinging the tax money of the nation broadcast over the land, and there is a* office-bolding clags, and. a tax- Okonef out of their labor to keep up the former class, tn a surfeit of luxury and independent living. That tax money must come, if it takes an officer to draw it out of the home and from among the pots and kettles and there seems to be no limit to the size of the official salaries. It Is a ceaseless cry of "more, "more " WC will be obliged id fta.ll urfless there is a change. It is poor comfort to toll me that the crash may not come in my time, because I would like to see an Improvement rather than decadence in our country’s finances, before I go hence forever, and it would seem that our lawmakers are get ting more and more Indifferent to the sterling prosperity of our forefathers and have entered upon a reckless habit of wasteful folly and sinful extravagance that is demoralizing. In the natural order of things we will certainly “see bottom,’’ unless there is a revival of plain common sense and com mon prudence in federal affairs. HAVE A BEAUTIFUL YARD.

TRANSPORTATION HEN TO Hl FRUIT RATES Members of the Southeastern Freight association, who will meet Ln St. Augus tfiie thia week, will be asked by Manager I. M. Fleming, of the Georgia Fruit ex change to fix freight rates on fruit ship ments for the coming season. Mr, Flem ing left for St. Augustine Tuesday. As the association will not meet again until June. Mr. Fleming took this oppor tunity of seeing its members in person. He will ask the roads’ representatives for their rates in all possible fruit terri tory, and he will also ask them to fix di verted shipment rates, sp that a car orlg- ■ inally shipped, say to Chicago, could be diverted to Kansas City on a rate no greater than the through rate. | As the representatives must file their tariffs with the interstate commerce com mission 30 days before they go Into effect, ■ the wisdom of early action becomes ap parent. It is also probable that Mr. Fleming will touch on the question of schedules in the general way. WATCH THE GROUND HOG FOR WEATHER FORECAST Now ft is settled! That la, temporarily. What? Why the weather, of course. Yes, the weather man has put it up to the vroundhog! That’s the long and short of It. Director Von Herrmann says there will be no cold wave during the remain der of January. As to February, well, just watch the groundhog and see. Every one knows all about the story of the groundhog and Wflether he can see his shadow on the first day of February. Throughout the entire country the weather conditions are very stable. There is no indication of a cold wave develop ing in the northwest, the place where all our cold weather originates. Conse quently, there is practically no likelihood of a cold wave’s being able to spring up and swoop down on us before the end of the present month. And as for February, the groundhog must answer! FORESTRY PROMOTERS PLAN HARD CAMPAIGN WASHINGTON. Jan. 27.—As a result of their unexpected victory yesterday in obtaining from the bouse committee of agriculture a favorable report on the Weeks forest reserve bill, ad vocates of forest reservea in tbe White moun tains of New England and tbe Appalachians of tbe south are preparing for one of tbe hard est fights of this aesrion in order to achieve the full fruits of their present victory. Although little time remains for the eonatd eration of any other than tbe reguar appropria tion bills, the representatives Interested will bring strong pressure to bear to obtain a day for the coubideration of the Weeks bill. These leaders in tbe movement claim that they have reason to believe that tbe bouse will consider the bill at this session and they are booeful that it will pass.
