The desperate attempts made by
the Constitution and Gen. Gordon
to wrest victory from defeat by in
flaming anew the passions of the
late war, and thus consolidate the
soldier vott, can but be deprecated
by every fair-minded voter
and is an insult to the
intelligence ot veterans in Geor
gia. Gen. Gordon and his Atlanta
organ arc not conducting the gu-
bernatorial campaign on the live
questions of the day,but are trying to
blind the eyes of the people to the
real issues at 6take by diving into
the dim vistar ol the past and arous
mg the passions of the late war,
buried beneath twenty years of
peace, and that no possible good
an he accomplished by reawaken-
,n R. There are important ques
tions for Georgians to consider in
selecting a chief magistrate, princi
pal of which, is the aspirant a suc
cessful business man and financier?
*1 he organ of Gen. Gordon knows
that he cannot stand an examina
tion into his fitness for the place
he seeks, and to drown this and
other pertinent and timely queries,
is trying to side-track the popular
attention to its candidate's brilliant
war record, which no one has ever
questioned, and that has nothing to
do with a civil office. The Consti-
tion’s attitude in conducting theGor-
don campaign reminds us ol the
spoke*man who was introducing
Blaine to an audience strongly
sprinked with democrats, who were
interrupting his remarks with many
pertinent conundrums, that were
unanswerable. In his desperation,
the speaker stopped and whispered
t® the “Plumed Knight” to know
what to say. “Don’t answer the
questions at all," was the reply—
‘‘just talk about the tariff!” This is
the present programme ol the Con
stitution and its standard-bearer.

But a short time had elapsed af
ter parting with his son, before the
father concluded to take a “stnnd”
tor a deer. He had been standing
but a few minutes until he heatd
something running through the
bushes, and at once discovered it to
be a deer. He raised his trusty ri
fle and fired, but was almost paral
yzed when he heard his son cry
out: “Oh. father, you have killed
me!” His father hastened to him
at once, and discovered that he had
shot Ins son through the brain. He
had fell, but had gotten up, and was
wiping the blood from his face
when his father reached him. The
old man, wild with grief, asked his
boy if he was hurt much, when the
heart-breaking answer came, “Fa
ther, I will die.”
In a letter to his brother in Bu
ford, in this county, Mr.Tuggle says
that no pen or tongue could depict
the horrible leelings he had, to see
the life blood of his soon ebbing
away, and to know that he had
given the fatal blow.
The son lived about nine days
after the sad occurrence, and then
died. This is, indeed, one of the
saddest accidents we have ever
been called upon to chronicle. No
blame is attached to the father. The
son leaves a wife and seven chil
dren. The old people are nearly
wild over the unfortunate affair.

Shreveport La., May 10, 188k.—Edi
tor Banner-Watchman: Your weekly
visits to my humble home in this Wes
tern clime are highly appreciated by me,
made so from the fact that it brings me
the news from the land that gave me
birth, and where I spent the major part
of my life.
I have been requested by some to give
them, as near as I can, the advantages
that might be to those that contemplate
migrating to the West and engaging in
agricultural pursuits. By your permis
sion, I will try and give those who wish
to coine this way, first, the price of lands
and the probable yield per acre of cotton,
com and oats (without fertilizers):
Improved lands can be bought within
a radius of twenty miles , of Shreveport
at from $2 to $4 per acre, that prior to
the war made one bale of cotton to the
acre, 25 bushels corn and about the same
of oats, and these same lands then would
have brought $15 per acre. The reason
they will not command any more now is,
because the negroes have nearly all left
the country and gone to towns, and there
are no whites to cultivate them. I have
seen many residences that are tumbling
down for the want of occupants to keep
them up—the fences in the same condi
tion. On a great many of the farms that
I speak of, the residences were of a neat
finish and very large. They were once
the homes of wealthy planters. When
Sambo left they left, too. I will give the
price of lands that are subject to entry,
belonging to the U nited States and the
state of Louisiana: 1st. Lands that be
long to the United States, entries can be
made as follows: 40 acres, $6; 80 acres,
$8; 120 acres, $12; 100 acres, $14. State
lands: 40 acres, $10; 80 acres, $10; 120
acres, $22; 160 acres, $27. It should be
borne in mind that in making these en
tries, the person so doing must go on
the land and improve and cultivate it, or
get some one else to do so. I will say
that 1 have traveled over a portion of
these lands, and can say that they lie
well, and are equal to most of the up
land in Clarke, Oconee and Walton coun
ties. These lands lie between lake
Caddo and the Arkansas line, a distance
of about twenty-five miles, and bordering
on the line of Texas. There are a great
many settlers scattered about at inter
vals of from two to five miles apart.
They seem to be the happiest people 1
meet, for the country abounds with deer
and turkeys, and the lakes have an inex
haustible supply of fish of various kinds.
Hence they live well and do but little on
their farms. Where these lands arc im
proved and the crops properly cultivated,
the average yield per acre of cotton is
abovt 1,000 pounds; corn 25 bushels;
oats 25 bushels. Have not made any
test of wheat yet.
Those who wish farther information
in regard to these lands should confer
with Mr. Fred A. Lonard, of this city.
He is the authorized agent for the gov
ernment and for the state. Or to Mr.
Calvin S. Croom, of MooringsporL
Mr. Croom is not an agent, but he is
well posted as regards locality, Ac., hav
ing been raised here and been a citizen
for lifty years. I will here state that
these lands lie in the parishes of Cadden,
Bossier and DeSoto, all of which arc ac
cessible to Shreveport either by rail or
water. Shreveport contains about thir
teen thousand inhabitants, and is rapidly
stepping to the front. She has now four
outlets of railroads and steamboat navi
gation the year around to New Orleans,
and six months north of the city to Ful
ton, Arkansas. Her cotton receipts are
about ninety thousand bales per annum
New industries are springing up in every
direction otsi the city. Uncle Sam has
erected a building here at a cost of $100,-
000, which is quite an ornament to the
city.
It is the case with nearly all that wish
to better their condition by moving west,
to think that Texas is the only place for
them. They start with Texas on the
brain and will not stop until they get
there, hence they pass by a better coun
try in many respects than they find when
they get there—one that is better adapted
to their wants, for many have but little
means when they stop, and 1 think that
a poor man with a large family is not
benefitted much when he settles down
a prairie in Texas, fenced in with barbed
wire, no WEod near by and drink water
out of a stock tank, which is often the
case, and there are many that go to Tex
as that would gladly go hack to their old
homes in Georgia and Alabama if the;
could do so, while there are others that
seem to be well satisfied, but I find that
this class have means when they get
there. Texas is not the place for a poor
man with a family.

PLATING FOR A DRINK.
Since prohibition has gone into effect
in Clarke county, various ways are re
sorted to by which to secure a drink.
The latest and most novel way we have
heard of happened in South Athens. A
gentleman knew his wife had a little on
hand, but kept it locked up and would
not let him have it. He came rush
ing in the house, and told his wife that
he had been bitten by a taaddog, and
soon commenced barking and snapping
at everything in the room. One of the
neighbors was sent for to manage the
mad man, and soan took in the situation,
and told the wife that if she conld fur
nish her husband with some whisky, the
rabies could probably be cured. The
whisky was brought, a large dose ad
ministered, and in a few minutes all
symptoms of hydrophobia had disap.
peared.

GERMAN PICNIC.
The first German picnic that ever left
Athens went out yesterday morning to
spend theday at Mitchell’s bridge. Three
large wagons beautifully decorat'd with
evergreens and German flags, left the
German club room on College avenue,
filled with our German friends and their
families. Capt. Henry Beusse had
charge of the commissary wagon, and
from the looks of the large, well filled
baskets and boxes, a good dinner was
had. They carried out rifles and fishing
tackle, and all kinds of games were en
gaged in. The picnic party went to have
a pleasant time, and we know they had it.

visit to the Convict Camp, and Condition
of the Prisoners.
Sundsy morning, together with Capt.
IV. D. O’Fsrrell, we bosrded the 9
o’clock train, destined to spend a day
with our esteemed friend Dr. W. M.
Willingham. But we had very foolishly
and unthoughtedly notified the Doctor in
advance, by a postal card telegraph, of
our anticipated raid on his larder, and
as forewarned was forearmed, our weuld-
be host got into his buggy and left. We
were met at the gate by a little suffrage-
slinger, who informed us that “Mars
Mark says I mast tell you when you
comes dat he didn’t git your letter, and
he’d he mighty sorry, but he dun gone
to Mr. Jim Smifs, and he don’t know
when he git back.’’ We at once held s
consultation with Capt. O’Farrell, and
he advised that we at once pursue the
retreating enemy, even if we had to hire
a team and follow himjto the utmost
coniines of the county. We marched
back to Crawford beneath the scorching
rays of the sun, and proceeded at once to
negotiate with Dave Arnold tor a horse
and buggy. While waiting for the team
to be hitched up we felt the pulse of the
town, and found tbe people almost a unit
for Bacon. Our friend J. Phillips had a
package of Gordon handbills under his
arm, but they looked as lonesome as a
last year's almanac. Phillips tried to
appear confident, hut there was a sepul
chral cast about his countenance which
showed that he felt himself leading a
forlorn hope. You may as well to-day
write Oglethorpe down in the Bacon
column, for it is certain to go for him.
In due season Dave Arnold brought
around a claybank Rosenanti hitched to
a buggy, with an ebony-hued fellow-cit
izen couched behiud on a piece of plank
placed over the body, to see that we did
not e’ope with the turnout. The pro
prietor, just as we drove off, warned us
that the horse was a little “tricky,” to
which Capt. O’Farrell most ungenerous
ly replied that he supposed the habit was
contracted by association with Dave.
That horse, however, far out-traveled
his looks, but we think he must have
been on a big drunk the night before, as
he manifested an uncontrollable desire
to drink every stream dry that we
crossed. Small grain along the road is
worthless, and fanners won’t make as
much wheat as they planted. Dr. Wil
lingham has some good spring oats at
Crawford, hut it will take a good barber
to harvest some of the other fields. At
Col. Smith’s, however, we saw a very
fine patch of Burt oats, sowed the 5th of
March, and which will make 50 bushels
per acre. CoL Smith also has a field of
wheat that promises 10 bushels per acre.
We reached our destination in due sea
son, and met a cordial welcome from
both Colonel Smith and Dr. Willingham.
Tbe latter gentleman was most pressing
in his attentions, and insisted that we
make Pleasant Hill our home as long as
we saw fit to remain. While waiting
for dinner we took a short stroll around
the lot, and first visited the cotton seed
ail mill, an enterprise started since we
wore last at this farm. A lUO-h. p. en
gine runs the cotton gins, flour and corn
mills and cotton seed oil works. The
buildings are all separate, but lines of
shafting extend from the machinery
shed to each house. This oil mill is one
of the best we ever visited, and is equip
ped with the most improved machinery.
The past season CoL Smith only made
up his own seed, and has still on hand
the 150 barrels of oil made therefrom,
which is of the best quality, and will net
over $9 per barrel. Besides the oil, CoL
S. made every pound of fertilizers he
used on his farm, which is a great sav
ing. He is baying up all the eattle to be
had, and winters them on the hulls and
cotton seed meal, and says he can keep a
cow in good condition for two cents per
day. Col. Smith has turned out TOO
acres of his best land for pastures, and
on this will raise his cattle. He will
cross them with the Devon, and says
there is more clear money in milk cows
and beeves than cotton. His only rea
son for not going into this branch long
ago was the lack of a cheap food to carry
them through the winter, and ibis his
oil mill supplies. In passing through
the hog lot our attention was attracted
by the skeleton of a genuine old-fash
ioned Georgia razor-hack sow plowing
up pine Toots with the energy of aSouth
Georgian in quest of the docile gopher.
Our host explained that thin sows al
ways raised the fattest pigs, and -pointed
to several litters of fine porkers near at
hand.
After a fine dinner, in which loaf sugar
took the place of “long sweetening” for
coffee, a fine pair of bays were hitched
to the phseton and we drove over a por
tion of the farm and to the convict camp.
We saw a field of 700 acres in cotton,
chopped out and with a fine stand. In
fact, every part of the farm is in perfect
order, hot it is too early as yet ia the sea
son for crops to show much.
Wonderful improvements have been
made at the convict camp. New bar
racks, a hospital building and stockade
have been built, and the former building
is a large and roomy structure, well Ten
tilated and admirably designed. We do
not suppose there ia a better arranged
strnctnre for the purpose in the country,
and the prisoners show by their appear
ance that they want for nothing. There
is not a single sick convict at the camp.
Col. Smith buys nothing but the best
quality of food for his prisoners, and they
are kindly treated. We did not hear
single word of complaint, although left
free to talk with the men.

THE GROVES PETITION.
We have heard for some time vague
rumors to the effect that an attempt
would be made to get Govornor McDaniel
to reduce the sentence in the Groves case
by a petition asking him to do it. It will
be remembered that a few days before
Mr. Hill went into oflice the Ordinary’s
safe was opened and the county seal,
county order, stub-book and other
things taken therefrom. A bill
was found by the grand jury
against Mr. Groves and others for
larceny from the house. He was tried
before a jury of twelve upright men, who
declared on t heir oaths that he was
guilty. Judge Lumpkin, one of the
ablest Judges in the state, sentenced
him to pay a fine of $1,(410, to 6 months
imprisonment in the county jail and 12
months in the chain-gang. If a petition
asking the Governor to pardon him or to
reduce the sentence is circulated, it will
doubtless be met by a counter petition.—

Washington. May iS.—A spe
cial from Martinsville, Va., gives
the following history ol the trage
dy of which brief mention was
made last nigltf.
Saturday night an anonymous
circular was issued and posted up
all over town. It seriously reflected
on W. K. Terry, a young business
man, and his lather, the late Win.
Terry, a prominent citizen. Tues
day morning Terry telegraphed for
his two brothers, J. K. and Benja
min Terry, livin? at Aiken station,
zo miles. They arrived at i p. in.,
and after a brief consultation went
to the printing oflice and demanded
the author of the card. The printer
told them it was Col. D. P. Spen
cer, a member of the town board
and one ol the leading business
men.
New Yoiik, Mzy it.—The Sup
»v« tbit ' Urtin Irons hopes to suc
ceed Mr. Powderly as General Mas
ter W« rkircin of the Knights of La
bor. Mr. Powderly’s sucessor is to
Le chr-en st ihe annual meeting of
ihe lel> gales next fall. Until re
cently tlieic Las been no doubt that
M*. Powderly would be elected
without opposition, but if Martin
lions fro nds can bring it about,
there will be a change in the general
board which will bring Irons in as
the head,and give him associates that
represent more radical and aggresive
principles than those for wiiich Mr.
Powderly has been contending.
Mr. Powderly has been some time
aware ot a feeling of dissatisfaction
that existed, especially among the
members who have recently joined
the order, and confined largely to
those districts that have been estab
lished in and near Pittsburg. Irons
is sullen and disappoint .d and
thoroughly angry because Mr. Pow
derly had to some extent openly and
with much vigorous language pri-
vataly condemned him for partici-
pating a conflict at n time above all
othcis when it was the wish of the
gtneial board to avoid it. Irons,
time and again, heard the members
of the board who were in St. Louis
say the strike was unwise, uncalled
for, and ought never have been or
dered. The committee told others
so in his presence. He and his as
sociates heard Ihe hoard say that at
the next meeting of the board an
attempt would be made to change
the rules so that no strike or boycott
could be ordered without the con
sent ot the general board.
It is on this issue thet the attempt
will he made to defeat Mr. Powder
ly and set hack the Knights of La
boron a plane with the less intcli-
gent and more unreasonable organi
zations of the past.
Mr. Irons’ friends have been in
secret communication with leaders
in other districts. His home is, like
his tame, an iron one ivith’the (hree
great districts in the southwest,
l’hese liis friends think can be re
lied upon to send delegates :o tile
annual convention who will he op
posed to taking away from the dis
tricts the power to order strikes, and
will force a change in the general
hoard, and the elections ot Irons as
General Master Workman. His
friend say that all the districts in
and about Pittsburg and some of
those districts of New York, es
pecially those composed of wage
workers on the horse railroad lines,
oppose the plan of taking away the
power to order a strike from the dis
tricts, They say that such a change
is hostile to the theory upon which
the organization is founded. It is
built on the general plan of the gov
ernment of the United States. The
assembles represent towns, the dis
tricts represent states, and the annual
meeting of delegates, which elects a
chief officer, represents the congress.
The theory, these men say, upon
which the order is founded is that,
as in the political government, each
sub-division is a law unto itself,
in all matters relating to itself, while
the proposed change would make
each of the divisions subservient to
the will of the general boaid.
Underneath this there unques
tionably lies a feeling of
opposition, possibly ot jeal
ousy, toward ,Mr. Powderly
and the conservative views which
he holds. Mr. Powderly is endeav
oring to lead and direct like an econ
omist, though he is no theorist.
Thousands of Knighls who do not
wholly understand him have perfect
faith in him when he asserts
that the revolution in the adjustment
of the relations between the wealth
of capital and the wealth of that
which produces capital must come
only after some years of education
patience and sell control. It is the
impiession of those who have been
nearest to Mr. Powderly that he be
lieves that the revolution will be a
partnership, so to speak, of labor,
with which labor buyors will treat
in business opperations just as they
do with any other partnership or
coiporation with which they want
to buy an) thing. Hut whatever he
sees in the future he knows that it
cannot be realized in a day or an
hour. The organization he has so
largely crested has now a large body
of men who have neither patience
or self control, and they chafe under
the restraint of the order. It has
grown too rapidly, and this threat
ened schism is a danger which Mr.
Powderly foresaw some time ago.
Eatenton, May ii.—“Who as
serts it, lies; who insinuates it, lies;
who repeats after hearing me today,
that I ever resigned any public trust
in peace or war, when my services
would benefit my people or country,
and when I was physically able to
serve them lies. Aod let him come
who dares to deny it!”
That was Major Bacon’s manly
and defiant reply to Gen. Gordon’s
insinuating inquiry if he he had not
resigned from the Ninth Georgia
regiment as Adjustant when his
country needed his sirvices. Dur
ing the delivery of this bold rebuke
of an unworthy insinuation, Major
Bacon looked Gen.Gordon square in
the eyes and shook his finger at him.
The sensation produced caused a
hush over the audience that mark
ed its significance. Even Gen. Gor
don seemed humiliated and his non
chalant air vanquished.
The day was signalized by sev
eral notable accidents. Among
them was Gen. Gordon’s serving
indirect notice on Maj. Bacon that
he proposed, if necessary, to run
another Colqnitt campaign. In
commenting on his challenge for
primaries as against fixing things as
done by court Louse cliques he re
peated his Clarke county grievance,
and said the counties that had de
clared for Bacon had done so with
out authority. Growing vehement,
Gordon said: “Don’t you know the
action of these clique caucuses, like
those of Burrows in Athens will be
reversed?”
Dr. R. B. Nisbet introduced both
Gen. Gordon and Major Bacon. In
presenting the former he made a
stump speech ot some length in fa
vor of the old soldier, which was a
surprise even to his triends as the
chairman of ajoint discussion is pre
sumed to say nothiiig leaning to
either candidate.
Gen. Gordon recited his Ameri-
cus speech, firing a few shots with
which he had been loaded in At
lanta on Sunday, and using a tuse
of sopho.noric rhetoric to set them
off. The burden of his song was
that Bacon was a chronic candidate,
declaring that he had been a stand
ing candidate for so long that “the
memory of man runneth not to the
contrary.”
When Nishet rose to introduce
Bacon he said the Major was of
Georgia blood and an honorable
man who had as much right to run
for Governor as either Gordon or
the speaker, and as often as he
pleased. This unhappy reiteration
of Gordon’s chief point was eheer-
ed.
Major Bacon with flashing eye
and voice as if choked with indigna
tion, spoke in spirited terms of the
chairman’s reference to his right to
run as often as he pleased. Nobody
disputed the proposition, but it was
a question ot taste » to the chair
man’s lugging it in.
Dr. Nisbett jumped up excitedly
and would not sit down at Majoi
Bacon’s bidding, but proceeded to
say he would leave it to the people
present to say if he had reflected on
Major Bacon. He had used the ex
pression, “right to run as often as
he pleased,” out of extreme courtesy,
as Gordon had pressed Bacon so
hard on that point
Major Bacon said if the gentleman
had offered it out of courtesy, he
could only say he was not used to
such courtesy.
“Then you have not been accust
omed to associating with gentle
men,” interupted Nisbet.
“To that I reply, in forbearance of
severer language, that 1 am accus
tomed to the society ot gentleman’:
own blood in my home city,” res
ponded Major Bacon, with percep
tible suppressed emotion and coura
gous forbearance. Continuing he
said: “I ask, before I proceed, that
some impartial person ba appoint
ed chairman, or at least some one
he appointed keeper of the time of
our limited speeches.”
A friend of Major Bacon’s then
took the time. While this was go
ing on two of Dr. Nesbit’s sons had
pushed their way to the platform
cursing and swearing that, “that
man Bacon should not speak here.
This was accompanied by several
excited expletives. As they neared
the platform they were forced back
Order was restored and Maj. Ba
con proceeded with his castigations
ot Gordon, whom he fairly spitted
and roasted over the fire of logic in
the crucible of truth.

management of the great southwes
tern strike. Their whole attention
will be given Irom this time forth
the most serious trouble they have
met.
If Mr. Irons and his friends should
succeed there is hardly any doubt
that there would be division or se-
cession. It the Knights cannot he
controlled by the principle with
which Mr. Powderly has thus far
controlled them he would wish the
order to be divided, and with those
of them who stand with him would
at once reorganize either a new
body or in some way go on with the
work he has given fifteen years.
With this body the work of rapidly-
increasing the number of accessions
of vehement and passionate recruits
will be carefully avoided.
Itis probable that before very long
there will be conspicous indications
of the revolt which is now secretly
operating in tbe ranks of the Knights
and tbe next annual meeting will
probably be a crucial one for the or

A Wrathful “Prince” Threatens to Cut
Han’s Heart out.
New Haven, May 11.—“Prince
Williams, the famous gypsy horse-
trader whose band is encamped in
Westville, tried to-day to induce the
police to arrest Wm. T. Squires,
young mao who eloped with his
daughter and several horses while
the hand was encamped at Walling
ford several months ago.
The “Prince” has just learned his
daughter and Squires are in this city
and he appealed to Capt. Hyde, of
the central police station to arrest
him. Squires had only been releas
ed from the lockup but an hour,
where he had been confined for
drunkenness, when the “Prince'
came tearing into the office.
“I don’t know whether he is mar
ried to my daughter or not,” he said,
upon being informed that the police
could do nothing for him, “but if he
don’t give her back I’ll cut his heart
out. I don’t care anything about
the horses, but 1 want the girl.”
The “Prince” is reported to be
worth several hundred thousands
dollars, and swears the vengance
himself and all his tribe upon Squires
The young woman appeared at the
police office today and waited until
the time Squires was released. The
couple are thought to be in town
still and the “prince” is hunting for
them.

A FASTIDIOUS HORSE-THIEF.
A Prisoner Who Scorned to steal Leu Than
Two Horeea at Once.
Keene, N. H., May 11.—Locked
up in the Cheshire county jail is
one ol the most notorious, skillful
and audacious horse thieves that the
country can furnish. Christopher
Carter is said to be his name, but he
has passed under several aliases, as
Albert Stone, Texas Jack and nu
merous others, and has served atime
in many houses of correction and
prisons in New England. He is a
Canadian and about 45 years of
age. The great peculiarity of his
crimes is that he never deigns to
steal one horse. He draws the line
at two. He has stolen an entire
car-load of equines while en route
to the states from Canada. Ordi
nary he captures two and a vehicle
—one horse being used to draw the
carriage, white the other was led.
Carter now has the prospect of a
long term of years behind the bars.

You pack your preachers in an

Many of us are too decent to be
religious.
My prayer is for a copy of the
heart of God.
I can never call names but every
fellow knows his number when I
talk.
I am a Methodist till I find some
thing with more get-up-and-get

I never became safisfird in Geor

1 had rather be a man in the true
sense of the work than the best an

The church is the last place to be
solemn, provided you have lived
right.
If I have lived right, I’ll wear a
smile as broad as heaven; but if I’ve
been swindling or doing wrong,(I’ll
have one as broad as a graveyard.
Christ was full of sympathy for
the sinners, but he gave the amen
corners bringes.
I want to be a good man and a

If I am a revivalist I’ve grown

God never made two men alike

I’d rather be a man that a digni

I’d rather die on a well-fought
field of battle that run away and
speculate on the spoils of the War.
A cross is the Lord’s will one way

Some men w nt the Lord to quit

Some men give the devil the (.lady

Some people think they can’t be

Dignity is nothing but the starch_
of a shroud.
Some of these meleesh soldiers
sing, “Surely the Captain may de
pend on me,” but a corporals guard
from the devil would run off a reg
iment of them.
Every society woman who claims
be to a Christian, has got to get out
ot society some time in her life or
go to hell.
I’d rather a daughter of mine get
a snake bite than a society bite.
Society is a heartless old wretch
sapping the spiritual life from thous
ands of peeple.
When a man is bragging that his
father is a Colonel you can put it
down that his father is ashamed of
him.
Many a man will lie down in hell
and say: “My tongue damned me.”
You may baplize a man all over,
but his tongue will come out as dry

Some of us will get up a big muss

I’m not singing the “Sweet bye-

It a horse is sound from head to

Some preach there are no hell,
but, old fellow, you won’t be in hell
ten minntes before you’ll wake up

Hell is sin intensified, and sin is
hell in all its respects.

If I were an old sinner I’d have

The devil is too much of a gentle

Feeling is moral perspiration.
Y’ou can’t take another man’s

I believe the whale swallowed

Ignorance is as round as a ball,

The Lord will have a great big

No man can be a Christian and

Nobody but an infernal scoundrel

You go on singing your way to

You’ll yet tangled up with the

Righteousness is righteousness,

The secret of happy life is to do

Small are.
“You cannot run a city on an un
