THE PLACE:—
119 Forsyth St.
AMERICUS, GA.
Sam Jones, the Georgia revivalist, is
not annihilated by any means, as some
folks Imagine. In the language of Sam
Small, Sam Jones continues to be “a
boly terror to evil doers.” Here Is bis
last sermon, according to the Xew York
Sun, delivered last Sunday at Staten
Island:
It was 3:30 o’clock when Sam Jones
swung himself to the front of the plat
form and began bis sermon. His text
was, “For God so loved the world that
He gave His only begotten Sou that who
soever believeth in Him should not
perish, but have everlasting life.”
Among other things be said:
“The fashionable minister Is without
sympathy. He says to the members of
his congregation, ‘If you believe as I be
lleve, you will he saved; if you don’tyou
will be damned; and I don't care much
which.' There is many a man that takes
a disordered liver for a pure heart,
makes me sad to hear a man say he’s an
infidel. I’d rather bo the lowest down
chaingang nigger, or whito man in
penitentiary for stealing than be an
open, avowed infidel. I’d even rather
he the lowest Wall street thief than an
infidel. Old Bob Ingersoll can make his
$200 and 6300 a night out of it, but
never did understand one of these little
fools that will chase around after him
and pay 61 to hear him Bpeak and board
themselves. I’m as full of faults as any
man, but when I get homo my dog Hero
greets me by wagging his tail and lick
ing my hands. He is glad to see me
hack, and he loves me. Why ? Be
cause I treat him kindly. Think how
good God lias been to you, and yet you
don’t lovo him in return.
“Xow, listen to me, you great big sin
ners hack there. You are lower than a
dog. Get out from under the dogs and
be a man. I crawled out from under
the dogs nineteen years ago, and I said,
‘Good-bye dogs.’ I did a good thing for
myself. It reminds me of that old
question ‘Are you married, or are you a
dog?’ I say are you a Christian or are
yon a dog? When a fellow's plumb
down and you ask him what he wants,
ho says ‘help.’ That word means every
thing. 1 know as well as I know that
I’m living that I never can make the
sort of a husband that I want my wife to
have, unless God helps me.
‘‘When you pray God to help you,
there should be the pledge in return:
‘I’ll help you. I’ll help you. I’ll help
you by working, voting and sinking my
last dollar to get whisky out of the
country.''
“I was addressing a large meeting
down In Mississippi the other day, and
there were a lot of farmers’ alliance
men present. I said to them: ‘You
never will get there. Every tlmo the
democrats aud the republicans act tlio
rascal toward yon, you play the fool.’
I say the same to tho prohibitionist.
There is only one way to got whisky out
of the country, and that is to vote it
out. Theroaro thousands of 3114-day
prohibitionists in Xew York; but on
the 303tli day, which is election day,
they don’t show up. I’m a prohibition
ist ovory day; and if there is only one
prohibition vote cast In 1892, you can
say Sam Jones is voting. And if I'm
alive fifty years from now, and there is
only one prohibition vote cast, you can
say ‘That’s Jones voting still.’
“When I die, thank God, I won’t have
to change my politics. I’m a concentra
ted, consolidated, double-dyed prohibi
tionist, now and forever.
“I don’t believe in towing the good
ship Zion ten milos out from shore and
then standing on deck and shouting,
‘Say, all you sinners on shore that can
swim, come aboard.’ I believe in sym
pathy and help, and in running the good
ship right up to the shoro and helping
aboard the men who can't swim. That's
my Christianity. If ever a collego jumps
on me and tries to doctor my divinity,
I'll sue ’em for damages. There’s noth
ing the matter with my divinity. It’s all
right. There are the I). D.’s. What
Hit stands for Devil
after Ids sermon and swung his black
broad-brim felt hat and talked.
“What Is the alliance doing in the
south ?” asked one of the group around
him.
“My sympathies are with the alliance,
said Sam Jones, “but it is not going to
work in the right way. At present it is
simply a protest against the existing
state of affairs, just as the labor unions
are protests.”
“Is there any political significance to
this series of prohibition meetings ?’
“Xot at present. We are not here to
talk politics. We are talking prohibi
tion. If we are going to accomplish
anything permanent we must enter
politics, however. ErG&body knows
that we can do uothbfg wvu the repub
lican or democratic jeNty km the lines of
prohibition. Their candidates arc select
ed with an eye to the ltypbr vote. Our
only hope is to stick together and vote
for our principles.”

permanent cure was effected, and the

From his awful suffering he was set free
