THE CENSUS.
(Rochester Herald.)
Are you ready for the census?
Have you read the almanac?
Have you tsudied your ancestors
For a dozen cycles back?
Have you counted up your freckles —!
For you know you’ll have to tell—
When Martens and his census men
begin.
Have you added up your children?
Have you figured up your cash?
Dil you ever find a button
In a dish of corned beef hash?
Are you deaf or blind or ugly?
' Do you toe out or toe in?
’ All of this you'll have to answer
When Martens and his census men
begin.
Do you lisp or squint or stammer
Ever have the whooping cough?
Are you handy with the hammer?
Ever fall and break your shin?
Do you swear, you'll have to tell it,
When Martens and his census men
begin.
Ever wear a porous plaster?
1 Was it bard to get it loose?
Are you fond of pickled onions?
Do you smoke, or chew or swear?
Have you any corns or bunions?
What's the size of shoes you wear?
Oh! you might as well look pleasant,
If your bat is dented in.
For you must confess to Martens
When his census men begin.
THE ROOSEVELT INCIDENT AT
ROME.
It is one of the inevitable, as welt
as regrettable, features of intolerance
that it always breeds intolerance.
The intolerance of the papal officials
finds a reflection in the intolerant
spirit shown by certain of the Metho
dist clergy of Atlanta. In neither in
stance can broadminded men excuse
the action taken.
The Methodist clergymen of Atlanta
adopted a resolution in effect declar
ing it a sin to visit the pope. This is
in keeping with some of the resolu
j tions that were adopted a half cen
tury ago declaring that the papacy
" was the scarlet woman of the Revela
' tions, and that the pope was anti
. Christ. It was an exhibition of nar
•! nowness on the part of some of the
I Atlanta clergymen arising out of an
j angry state of mind. The common
j sense of humanity does not endorse
| such a view any more than it en
i dorses the statement of the gentleman
: who drafted the resolution that the
« Catholic cburch is not a Christian
j church.
| i All this sort of thing is greatly to
|be regretted. While as protestants we
;may not believe in many of (he teach.
I I ing of Catholicism, nor endorse its
attitude in many respects, to claim
that it is not a Christian body is an
exaggeration that will not be re-echoed
by the mass of enlightened protestant
sentiment. In the differences between
the two great bodies into which Chris
tendom is divided we are too apt to
overlook the essential points on which
: they agree, the worship of the same
God, the Universal Father and Crea
; tor of all things, the virgin birtb of
Christ, his sacrifice on Calvary, his
resurrection, his atoning power. All
the great primal truths that are ac
cepted by the protestant churches of
the world to be found stressed by
, the Catholic church. Perhaps if we
looked more for the points on which
there is an agreement it would be bet
ter for both branches of the universal
' church, and the breach would be nar
rowed instead of widen? 1.
| The Fairbanks and ti .oosevelt in
cidents are simply prooi t.:at the con
st tired authorities of the Catholic
j church at Rome eannot view things
from an American standpoint. It : s
impossible for the average American
to appreciate conditions in other lands,
and it is doubtless even more difficult
for the Italian cardinals to accept the
American view point. The American
idea of absolute religious tolerance is
not known anywhere else on the face
of the earth. England and Germany,
the other two greatest protestant na
tions, have each their established
state churches, although freedom of
conscience prevails. But it is alone
in this country that there is an entire
severance of the relations of church
and state, a complete divorce between
them, and each; and every denomina
tion is permitted to work out its own
salvation without assistance or hin
drance of any character from the gov
ernment. Incidents like the two re
cent occurrences at Rome will more
than ever strengthen the conviction
in this country that this condition of
affairs must be maintained. It is an
evidence, or as such it will assuredly
be accepted by the mass of protestants,
that those at the head of the other
great division of Christendom are op
posed to the American standards or
ideals, and it will inevitably accentu
ate the determination in this country
to allow no encroachments on the es
tablished order of things here. It is
well that this should be so. Nothing
could work greater harm to the nation
than any interference with the condi
tions that have prevailed since the
establishment of the government This
f"
must be mainiained as a land where 1
every religious body stands on identi
cally the same footing as every other
one, with all of the privileges, all of
the rights, all of the responsibilities s
unaffected by governmental affiliations (
in even the remotest degree. And the i
day is coming when a similar condl- t
tion will prevail in every other land. 1
The world is rapidly passing beyond it
the stage when anything but an abso- t
lute freedom of action in religious
matters will be tolerated by an intelli- t
gence that has been educated to de- t
mand freedom of conscience in the i
highest degree. The fact that in-Rome' i
the Methodist church, in the face of i
the protests of the Vatican, is permit
ted by the state to continue its re- :
i gious and educational propaganda,
j that in France the old Huguenot
I chiureh is taking on a new life and
displaying a vigor akin to that shown
! three centuries ago when it gave
promise of changing France into a
protestant country, and that in parts
of Austria the Lutheran church is mak
ing vast strides, are ample evidences
that the old order of things is rapidly
passing away and fbat within a few
generations in every civilized land con
ditions will approximate what they
are now in the United States. And
until then, as well as thereafter, it
might, be well for all church bodies
to emblazon on their banners the ad
monition of Christ, “Love ye one an
other.’’
DISFRANCHISES AN ARMY OF
GOOD CITIZENS.
\
Reg stration throughout the state
has been very heavy during the past
few days but, of course, it has been
impossible to make up anything like
the tremendous deficiency that ex
isted when attention was first called to
the fact that thU registration* threated
j ed to fall 70,000 short of two years- ago.
It is from the latest advices,
that the registration, as it is. will show
a decrease of probably 40,000, and con
sidering the natural increase in the
number of voters that should be look
, ed tor every two years the proportion
II of falling off will be even greater than
indicated by the actual figures.
As soon as the completed figures are
announced there is going to be a howl
from the Smith organs, and more par
ticularly the Atlanta Journal, in ail
likelihood, that this is evidence that
there was a large body of unlawful
voters registered two years ago. There
will be the cries of “AVe told you so,”
clamoring at the very gajes of heaven,
so vociferous will they be, and persist
ent efforts will be made to lead the
publ'c to believe that the present reg
istration is an honest one, and that of
' two years ago was a corrupt one.
e As a matter of fact, however, the
-• truth is that the present registration
3 has shut off many, many thousands of
1 the best citizens of tk>e state from
■ voting at the approaching primary. It
" : s in part their own fault, to be sure,
c their disfranchisement can be laid at
the door of their own dilaforness, the
a proneness to put off unril tomorrow
" what should be attended to to-day. The
3 corrupt elements never fail to register.
■“ If is a matter of business with theun. It
L ' is the business man, the professional
■ man, the farmers who are busy hi
■ their fields, who neglect so important a
* matter until it is too late. Os the forty
‘ thousand registered two years ago who
e will be cut off from participating in
n the election of the next governor and
n legislature thirty-five thousand are
e men who, above all others, should he
* registered, men who have something at
n stake, men of character, of standing,
8 of principle.
a When these thousands upon thous
ands of men awaken to the fact that
0 they have been disfranchised by a law
e that closed the books months before an
' election there is a strong likelihood of
s a protest going up that will result in
u a modification of the law. Such laws
a work their own cure, and that will
1 doubtless be the result in this especkil
1 case. The purpose of all laws affect
n ing the voting rights of citizenship
' should be to make it easy for the white
0 men of the state to qualify to vote.
[1 While there should be sufficient protec
e tion thrown around the ballot to pro
■ tect it against corruption there should
1 certainly be no schemes carried
s through having for their purpose the
1 disfranchisement of an army of voters
* who would he an honor to any state
I And that, unfortunately, is probably
y the practical working of the existing
e law. When the returns are in it will
II be found, in all likelihood, that. the
‘ number of registered white voters is
1 not at all in proportion to the white
’ population of the state, that in a pro
portion of one to five the registration
" falls any where from 70,000 to 100,000
short of what it should be. And for
c on? we refuse to believe ti.tit the
s army cut off from voting is made up
s of bums, hirelings, vote sellers, liquor
"* -emissaries, et, al. We don’t believe
; > there is such an army of bad men in
c Georgia. But there is an army of good
3 men who will not be able to cast their
3 hallos in the next primary. And that
3 is the one great regrettable feature of
e the Smith registration law.

THE GOSPEL OF BEAUTY NEEDED
IN SOUTH GEORGIA.
In traveling along the Seaboard and
some other railroads through South
Georgia one fact is indelibly impressed
upon the mind, and that is the almost
entire absence of any efforts at beauti
fying the surroundings of the homes,
and especially of the farm homes,
along the route.
In many of the small towns, and all
through the open country, one finds
the residences without a bit of shade
around them, wijh.no blade of grass
visible, with hardly a bush or a flower
to add attractiveness to the scene.’•
Squatted down in the midst of the
fields, exposed to the full glare of the ‘
sun, they present an extremely un
attractive aspect. One wonders why
those who live within have not learned
the virtue of a little time and a little
money expended in seeds, for flowers,
for grass, for the planting of trees that
would adorn and give comfort.
There is really no excuse for this
absence of natural adornment to the
home surroundings. It indicates a
lack of desire for the ‘beautiful, a lack
of appreciation f the beautiful, the
need of a stimulus in that direction
that should he given by those whose
business in life it is to lead and to ed
ucate the people.
In a country Ike South Georgia,
where the land responds so abundant
ly to a little gardening, where roses
and every other flower that is a delight
to the eye thrives, where the ground
can be speedily covered with a luxur
iant bed of living green, where trees
quickly take root and flourish like the
bay, the only explanation that can be
given for the absence of these things
is that the people are indifferent, that
• they do not appreciate their value, that
they have not been brought to realize
that life will be ennobled by such an
improvement in the home environment.
A gospel of beauty is needed through
out Souili Georgia. The preachers
should preach it. Nothing will do
» more for the people than to awaken in
them a love of fragrance, a love of
color, a love of the exquisite plant life
that God has so endowed
old mo’her eartrfPrfttyxor the delight
. of His children*')’ The newspapers
I should agitate it, the public schools
should seek to arouse it. There shouitl
be a campaign, not for a day or a
week, but continuously, for the beauti-
I fication of the home surroundings
. throughout this section.
' The love of the beautiful is part of
true Christian culture, it is part of
■ genu'ne civilization, it is as much a
. part of education as the prosaic rules
■ of grammar or the established prinei
- pies of mathematics. It broadens and
sweetens and elevates life, it adds to
• the pleasure of existence. It is worthy
i of cultivation, it is worthy of special
• education, it should be part and parcel
i of all the uplifting influences that are
at work in this section.
