CHOOSING A SCHOOL
FOR YOUR CHILD.
Some time since, a gentleman
connected with a Christian school ‘
incur State approached another
gentleman promnent in the po
litieal life of the Stntcjiud asked
him about his ’nov si- to where he
was going to send hint to school.
At once the reply came: ,- [ dread
to see him go to , because
the moral and religious influences
in- -o bad. "He named an insti
tution run by the state, and then
proceeded to tell of some Os tile
evil results he had observed of
the life lived by the youths there
When asked whether he would
not much prefer to send his boy
to a denominational school of
equal grade he said yes: hut add
ed that the boys heart was set
on the other school and be did not
feel like exerting his parental au
thority in the matter and the boy
was influenced by some associates.
Tins gentleman was a Methodist
-toward. In the same community
was a Baptist deacon who held
( similar views, but was influenced
by the suuie considerations to let *
his boy go where the temptations
were, as he knew, terrific. If the
Baptist deacon had only been firm
both iiovs would probably have j
gone ton denominational school,'
lor they were friends and wished
to go toget her. , What these two,
might have become for God and]
truth, under Christ mu influences j
who can tell? The lost opportu-j
uity will never return to the Bap-!
ti-t deacon to test the matter.
Eternity alone will reveal results
—too late to alter that which has
come to pass, in this connection
we quote from the Alabama Bap
list a thought-provoking para
graph :
‘‘ln the selection of a school
w»* should first inquire ‘what will
be its probable effect on the moral
land reiigums life of my child?’
It. is a foolish parent that will
make this first consideration a
secondary mat ter. To settle this
question we should know or ascer
tain the diameter of the teachers
under whom children are to be
placed. A teacher that does not
stand four square to every wind
that blows is no fit person to
train a child. IB* may be ever so
I brilliant,with ever so line' equip
; moot at his hand but these tilings
so far from remedying his defects
make him all the more powerful
to hurt. The moral stature of
the teacher ami not the financial j
si/t* of the college is evermore the j
important thing for tin* child.' 1

Editors who find politics dull
and arc looking lor a strenuous life
should go to Russia. We read
i bin Editor Neo Belmont of the

I material for more criticism.

NO NIGHT RIDING
FOR ALABAMA,
“Alabama, through ht-r insur
ance department, has officially
put on notice the lawlessly iftcliu
ed that there must U- no ‘night
riding’ in that state,” says tic*
Atlanta Const it ut ion.
“Acting promptly upon the
1 suggestion of certain insurance
companies, Alabama's insurance
commissioner has not only given
| notice hut has laid plans to go
out after the fir-t band of night
j rub •m that shows its head.
“That is the only way effective
ly to crush this dangerous crimi
nal business and southern autho
rities must see to it that it is
promptly crushed.
“Alabama’s official warning to
the lawless with the knowledge!
that there is back of it a determi
nation that means business will
no doubt have a salutary effect.
.But if that nbould fail prompt
i execution of the purpose nod a
few jail sentences will put an end
to night riding aspirations.
‘‘Alabama has set the right pace.
Eveiy state in which there has
been appearance or suggestion of
this form of criminally should
take similar steps.
“And if that is not immediate
ly effective it should be shown
with the first outburst that se
crecy iAn security from the law.
“If all the states will follow
Alabama’s pattern night riding
will g,-t a foothold nowhere in
j the south.”
Night riding can lie prevented
if the officers of the law decide
that it is a crime against the
peace, good order and dignity of a
community to indulge in such
praet ices.
There are very few laws that
I cannot he enforced if the officials
: desire to see them enforced. Night
! riding has made Kentucky no-
I torious—infamous, if you please.
There has been some little in
clination on the part of the law
: less to indulge in night riding in
j t liia state. It, should Le nipped*

THOS. E. WATSON WAS
IN DUBLIN LAST FRIDAY.
Hot). Thos. E. Watson,nominee
ot the populist party for president ;
delivered a strong address at the;
Chautauqua auditoriuir. in Dub
lin last Friday.
The address was listened to by
about one thoir&and citizens. The
applause, which was very hearty
at times, wits participated in by
three or four hundred.
The address w as a sot age
ntent of Bryan and the Democrat
ic party. For every word of abuse
it Taft and republicanism, Mr.
Watson had a dozen for Bryan
and democracy.
Mr. Watson tvas introduced by,
Hon. John K Baggett in a tilting
manner. He was greeted most
enthusiastically by his followers
pr* =>‘iit. Col. J B. Howard of
Hatvkinsville and Mr. B. B. Lin
der of i Ins county occupied seats
on the stage.
Mr. Watson entered into the ar
gument of Ins side of the ques
tion in that forceful manner tor
{which he is famous. He ridiculed
the charge that he had sold out to j
the Republican party. He said j
that he did not have to sellout.;
He could make all the money he j
wanted without that. The last;
year he practiced law - he said lie
i made SIB,OOO. He could at any
time get a case w ith a SI,OOO fee.
He said lie had an income of #7,-
000 or 18.000 from his farms,
which was twice as much as his
simple needs demanded. He said
; he could go back to the practice
of law and make from #IO,OOO to
#20,000 per annum, and as much
more on the lecture platform. He
said he did not need any money,
ami did not, therefore have to sell
! out.
lie spoke of the bitter enemies
that he had and said that any)
man could go along quietly and
take things ns they come and have
no enemies, but that if a man is,
aggressive and stands by the peo
pie, he is bound to make enemies;
as he lias done.
Mr. Watson asserted that he is;
ii good Democrat and asked for!
the votes of the people for that
reason. He ridiculed the idea that
he was working for Taft.
