Entered Ht the Post Office lit Barnesville, Or., a second clftHH mail matter. AUGUST 21, 1002. PROMINENT GEORGIAN DIES Hon. W. A. Hemphill, the well known citizen of Atlanta, died suddenly Sunday last at his home on Peachtree street in Atlanta. He was about his usual business Saturday and his death was a great surprise to his family and friends. Col. Hemphill was the founder of the Atlanta Constitution and to him was largely due the success of the paper. He was a brave confederate soldier and a promi nent and useful Atlantan and Georgian, and was honon and throughout the state and country. He was actively identified with the work o f the Met ho - diet church in Georgia and was very influential in the councils of his church. REGULATE VICE WITH LICENSE The world is coming to geo that there are usually two sides to questions. Extremists sav, >f course, that there is only one way to gee and do anything and that auyvjjevv contrary to the one they hold is erroneous. They are never willing to grant to others what they take for themselves, the right to exercise their own opinion and to act in accordance therewith. While it is necessary that we should have convictions and stand by them, we have no right to condemn everybody else who does not agree with us. Tolerance is a virtue. Dr. K. 11. Andrews, chancellor of the University of Nebraska, has just expressed some views which will not be endorsed by a great many, but they are entitled to proper consideration. In his lec ture a few days ago, he said he believed that the city governments should regulate the social vice. He told the students that Purls had a system of regulation which had proved beneficial, and that this might be tried to advantage iu some of the large cities of the United States. He assertrd that the evil was one which probably never would .lie entirely stamped out, and therefore means more effect ive 'ihan those now employed in this country should be found whereby less , harm would come to those who would not keep pure and innocent. “The State,” declared Chancel lor Andrews, “is under obligation to take measures to protect inno cent women and children and future generations. I demur from the common opinion that in grant ing a license to a person engaged in a business or practice which is looked down upon or scorned by people generally the authorities are entering into collusion with the persons licensed. There are many times when a license is the best and most effective method of suppressing or regulating vice." Cnrlojut Tenni'KMV Mr. Robert Mitchell Ims just received a carload of the Ten neessee wagons, which he wants to sell at once. He promises to satisfy every body as to prices. Call to see him about anew wagon while he has them. He also sells buggies, surreys, harness, mules, horses and is always ready for a trade. See his advertisement in this issue. Dr. Andrews On Marriage. Dr. E. Benjamin Andrews, who delivered, several able and interesting sermons and lec tures at the recent session of the Barnesville Chautauqua, has been lecturing in Chicago, on the subject of marrying, and no doubt what he had to say was highly entertain jug. He at least selected a suitable place in which to deliver himself on the subject. The follw ing is a quotation his from address, with editorial comments on it from the Macon Telegraph: “Providence intended that men and women should marry. The world was made for the family and not for the individual. The unmarried individual of marriage able age has no place in society nor in the scheme of the universe. Individuals who do not form legal ties with the opposite sex will form illegal ones. The world does not want this kind of ties.’’ What is “intended” in general jcannot always come to pass in particular. Every egg was intended jto become a bird, hut there are | intermediate mishaps which de mand consideration. It is the j common perception of all men that a love-marriage is the ideal, but no man in his senses should deliberately advise entering into a loveless marriage. Human beings are something more than cattle. Dr. Andrews seems to be of another opinion, and would condemn all unmarried men and unmarried wo men us legitimate objects of sus picion merely because they have not married, allowing for no possi ble obstacles honestly regarded as insurmountable. There are both men and women who do not marry for purely selfish and inexcusable reasons, but they are probably in the minoity. 1 hero are men who do not marry because of a disappointment and failure to form another strong attachment honesty shrinking from a union of the purely machine made pat tern. There are poor proud souls who do not marry because they have not made a financial success and cannot give the girls of their own class all they believe she should possess. There are women who Mo not marry because the men who have sought them are so manifestly their inferiors that oven a fairly contented married life is seen to bo impossible. And there are perhaps some women — we should not venture to say there are more than a very, very few — who cannot marry because they have never been asked. The motives of the majority of the single would perhaps be found higher and purer than the motives of largo numbers of the married, lfow many marry solely for money or for other purely external reasons, without a spark of beau tiful affection which lifts the human union above the plane of the animal. As general statements some of those made by Dr. Andrews will stand, but a very large allowance must be made for the exceptions. SAVES A WOM AN’S LIFE.
