Bolin A. Blakely, of Gwinnett
county, died a few days ago. At
the time of his death he was a can¬
didate for the State Senate. He
was a prominent man in his see-
tinn; had represented his county
twice itl the legislature, and had
been Moderator of the Appalachee
AsBoCiation. He was nil intlnen-
tial in ember of the Baptist Church,
and one of the best Sunday School
workers I ever knew. Bor sever-
al years he was Superintendent of
two Sunday-Schools, attending one
in the morning and the other in
the afternoon. The writer knew
him long and knew him well, and
regarded him as ode of the best
men he ever knew. The Appa-
laehce Sunday-School Association,
compi'sccl of schools of different
denominations, of which he was
l’residcrtt. will miss him very
much. The two Sunday --Schools,
five miles apart, of which he Was
Superintendent, have lost a taith-
liu officer, and the community in
which he lived n useful citizen, He
was ohe ol the best fricUds the
writer ever hod. My old friend,

“I am opposed to political reh-
gion, hut I want to see religious
politics; l want to see all good
men vote against drunken and
profane candidates for office,” said
a public speaker recently. All
good persons, without regard to
their personal political affiliation,
will say “amen” to this. It is the
lack of religious principles D our
politics which has made
quently so shamefully vicious and j
corrupt, To restore politics to j
the purity which will fit it for hon-
orable usage, and prevent the dis-
astfolls effects of corruption upon
the country, religion in
politics is necessary, This iieces-
sity is being recognized generally,
and the spirit of reform is moving
on the dark and troubled waters of
municipal, State alid National pol-
itics.
