WASHINGTON. Feb. S.—The confirma

of the appointment of James L. Sibley

Warren Edwards, vice chairman of the
Georgia Taft clubs, was an applicant for

By EX-GOV. GLENN
HE MABE STRIKING PLEA FOR
MISSIONS BEFORE LARGE AU

FINAL SESSION THURSDAY.
In an earnest and enthusiastic speech
on "A Christianized America—for Nation
Building.** ex-Governor R. B. Glenn, of
North Carolina, discussed on Wednesday
night at the Central Presbyterian church
the great need of missions and the deteri
orating forces that menace the American
government today, which he summarized

and capital, the desecration of the Sab
bath. the needs of the illiterate white
and the vitiating Influence of the slums
of our great cities.
A large congregation, which filled all
the lower floor of the church, was pres
ent at this, the second session of the
great mission campaign which is being
held here and is Indicative of the wide
interest that is being aroused with refer
ence to the question of missions. Rev.
Reese F. Al sop. D.D., canon of the Cathe
dral. Long Island, delivered the second
address of the evening, which was well
received.
On Wednesday afternoon. “Today’s
Outstanding Problems of Home Mis
sions” was the interesting topic discuss
ed by Rev. B. D. Gray, of Atlanta, while
Dr. John R. Nelson, of Nashville, Tenn.,
delivered an address on “The Unity of the
Church In Its Mission to America.” The
closing address of the afternoon was de
livered by Edmund D. Soper, of New
York, whose subject was the “Importance
qf Education in Home Missions.”
The two sessions on Thursday, which
will bring the campaign to a close, will
be held at 2:30 in the aftemon and at
7:45 in the evening. F. L. Seely will pre
side over the afternoon and Asa G. Cand
ler over the evening sessions.
Thursday’s Program
The exercises for Thursday will include
many distinguished speakers, and the
following program has been arranged:
'•The Backward People,” Dr. John E.
Wl.lte, pastor of the Second Baptist
church.
“Our Expanding Frontiers,” Rev. Ward
Platt, of Philadelphia, assistant secretary
of the home mission board of the Meth
odist Episcopal church.
"America—God's Laboratory for the
World.” Rev. Josiah Strong, of New
York city.
When Introduced as governor of North
Carolina. ex-Governor Glenn stated by
way of explanation that he was no longer
governor of the 'T)ld North State." as
his term of office had expired two weeks
ago. He took as the “text” of his dis
course "Go ye into all the world and
preach the gospel unto every creature,”
which, he said, was the mission of
America.
Taking Africa as a representative field
for foreign missions, the speaker stressed
the fact that Africa was three times as
large as all Europe, and that the United
States, with its eighty-six milllona of
people, might be put into Africa, and
there would still be room on every side.
While each missionary has a congrega
tion of from 3,500 to 4.MX) souls, the ex
action* of the tropical climate limits the
life of the missionary to eight or ten
years, which must be spent among people
debased, ignorant and cannibalistic al
most beyond belief, more than 50.000,000
of whom have never heard of Christ.
Still more deplorable were the condi
tions here in Christian America, with Its
96.000.000 people. 50,000,000 of whom make
no pretense of being Christians, while
34.000,000 half-heartedly follow Christ. He
deplored the fact that many people boast
ed that America was safe as long as the
stars and stripes floated above, starting
from which point be proceeded to discuss
the menaces of our modern civilization.
Menaces of Civilization
It is the opinion of ex-Governor Glenn
that there are forces at work in Amer
ica, which, unless their progress is
checked, will dissipate our strength and
bring wreck and ruin to this country,
such as was brought upon Greece and
Rome in earlier days. The first dis
cord that was mentioned as marring our
national harmony is the struggle of cap
ital Mth labor, world-old yet ever new,
with its murder of children in our facto
ries and manufacturing plants, condi
tions which could not exist If we “love
our children and neighbors a* ourselves.”
The appalling desecration of the Sai>
bath In this country should bring the
American people to consider the terrible
results of the French revolution. "Where
there is no Sabbath, there is no relig
ion: where there la no religion, there
is no God; where there is no God, there
is no conscience; where there is no con
science, there is no respect for the rights
of our fe’low man; where them is no
respect for the rights of our fellow man,
there is mob law and anarchy. No people
can be blessed until they come back to
God.”
The perils of Immigration loom large
on the political and social horizon of
America, said the speaker, as more than
1.000,000 foreigners come to our shores
annually, 185.000 of whom can neither
read nor write, while 514,<iW are so poor
as to posesss not more than $25 or S3O
apiece.
The present examination of immigrants,
he said, was a farce, and he recommend
ed a stricter one, which vuuld exclude
criminal*. ,
Illiteracy In South
The speaker pleaded earnestly for mis
sion work in the mountainous sections of
the southern states, where the illiteracy
of the poor whites was most deplorable.
This Aliterate belt extends for 600 miles
in length and 200 miles in width through
portions of Virginia, Georgia, Alabama
and Tennessee, the population of which,
numbering 4,000,000 or 5.000.000 people. Is
entirely away from the railroads. Thougi
pure-blooded Anglo-Saxons, they ore so
illiterate os to be unable to read or write
and many have never seen a Bible.

JUDGES AND SOLICITORS
Commerce News
The editorial in last Sunday's Atlanta
Journal on the lesson of lawlessness is
one of the very best we have ever seen
from the pen of Editor Gray, and that is
saying much, for it must be admitted
that Mr. Gray is one of the best editorial
writers in the state. In the editorial re
ferred to Mr. Gray takes the position that
one thing needed to insure the enforce
ment of law, is the executive appoint
ment of judges and solicitors. Those who
have read the News during the last few
years will remember that when the pro
posed change was under consideration,
we took the position now occupied by The
Journal that the change in manner of
selecting these officials was unwise and
would not be beneficial in its results.
The judge on the bench, and the prose
cuting attorney should not be handi
capped, as hey will be, so long as they
are to b« elected by a direct vote of th-3
people. We do not Insist that they are
conscious of such restraints, but human
nature is the same in all people, and so
long as these officers are thus elected
they cannot rule out of their minds the
fact that they are under some obligation
to the men who supported them, and gave
them the office, and it is but natural that
they should feel kindly to those who ex
pressed at the ballot box, their confidence
in the ability and general fitness of the
candidates for the office. To put it mild
ly. no possible good can come of the new
order, and harm may result. Hence it is
that we hope that the next general as
sembly will see the possibility of evil and
offer a remedy. In addition to what The
Journal lias said touching the manner of
electing these officials, we do not believe
that it will be wise to place solicitors gen
eral on a salary basis. He should be ap
pointed by the governor, and then let his
salary depend on his own efforts. Thus
he will go into office under no obligations
to any man or set of men, and his com
pensation will depend on his own efforts
to prosecute and convict the guilty.
SENATE. WON'T GET
BEPOBT OHI EBG[B?
SPECIAL COMMITTEE PROBING
ABSORPTION OF TENNESSEE
COAL AND IRON CO. CON
FRONTED BY ARDUOUS TASK.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 4—The special
committee of the senate committee on ju
diciary, which is investigating the Ten
nessee Coal and Iron absorption by the
United States Steel corporation, expects
to meet difficulties in preparing a reply
to the senate resolution providing the in
quiry-
Although a number of bankers who
were supposed to know all about
the details of the Tennessee pur
chase by the steel corporation have
ejyilained to the committee their partici- |
pation in the transaction, nothing has
been brought out which disputes Presi
dent Roosevelt’s contention that there
was nothing proposed with which he
found ft incumbent upon him to inter
fere.
The resolution calls upon the commit
tee to report what was the president’s
authority for permitting the merger.
Nothing has been found by the committee
which seems to warrant the president in
giving consent to the absorption nor
anything which seems to demand that he
should have forbidden the merger. Some
of the members of the committee, in dis
cussing the case informally today, sug
gested that it would have been wisdom
for the president, to advise Judge Gary
and Mr. Frick to consult their lawyers
Instead of submitting the proposition to
him.
In summing up the evidence presented,
a number of lawyers In the senate have
said that it appears to them that the
party 61 sixteen financiers who obtained
control ot the majority of the stock were
systematically “squeezed” during the
panicky days of October, 1907. Senator
Culberson has sought to show that the
stocks were especially "pounded” in the
"street” by people interested in the so
called Morgan banks.
It is possible no report whatever will
be made to the senate in response to the
Culberson resolution. So many legal
questions are involved that it is predicted
a long discussion will result from any at
tempt to determine whether the presi
dent had proceeded in wrongful manner.
His communication to the senate sug
gests that the only action taken by him
was to say that he saw no reason why he
should interfere to prevent the merger.
This is construed variously by members
of the committee, some of the Democrats
going so far as to say it amounted to
an instruction to the attorney general
not to prosecute the merger even if was
found to be contrary to the provisions of
the Sherman law.

CALHOUN TALESMEN
PASSED BP Bl GOURI
SIXTEEN CITIZENS, POSSESSING
RADICAL OPINIONS, ARE EX
CUSED—TEN JURORS HAVE
BEEN SECURED.
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 4.-Slxteen
citizens, for .the most part possessed of
radical opinions concerning the guilt or
innocence of Patrick Calhoun, passed in
review before the attorneys in Judge
Lawler’s court yesterday, and none suc
ceeded in qualifying for. the eleventh
place in the jury that will try the pres
ident of the United Railroads upon an
indictment charging bribery.
A stir was created early in the session
by the discovery that Sigmund Cohn,
husband of the woman who was request
ed yesterday to leave the building, was
in the court room. He was closely ques
tioned and searched by detectives before
he was permitted to remain among the
spectators.
DR. JOHN E. WHITE
TO REMAIN HERE
Dr. John E. White is not going to be j
John D. Rockefeller’s pastor. He is going
to remain in Atlanta with the Second
Baptist dhurch, although the Euclid ave- •
nue church, at Cleveland. 0., of which the J
oil magnate is a member, could doubtless .
have been his, had he said the word.
Dr. White returned Wednesday evening
from Baltimore, Md., after a week’s trip
through the north, where he spoke at sev
eral big cities in the interest of the home
mission movement. He said Thursday
morning:
•I have received no formal call from
the Euclid avenue church. Congregations
do not extend formal calls until there
has been an assurance of favorable con
sideration from the minister in view. The
I plan is this: A committee of deacons
settles upon a man. Then they communi
cate with him. If he gives them proper i
; assurance, they then bring the matter.
before the whole congregation, a vote is j
taken and if the minister is elected, he ,
Is officially asked to accept the charge.
“I had decided to remain in Atlanta for
three reasons: First, because the south,
I think, is the geratest opportunity in
our country for men to make their lives
useful; second, Atlanta is the center of
the south: and the Second Baptist is the
place in Atlanta for me.”

a Sargasso Sea littered with derelicts of at !'

them is the ceaseless activity of commerce, of (
development, moving onward and upward de- ;
