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 —Christlan Index. 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 Warsaw Yolno Stove lias just gone to jail for the nineteenth time! for saving disagreeable things in Ins paper about the Russian pris ons. This* time he goes to Si- 1 U>ria. Doubtless he will find I material for more criticism. Instead of causing a panic, it is now being 411 ill it ted that Bryan's clecson would aid busi ness In other words, he is tlie advance agent of prosperity -Dub lin Courier-Dispatch. So many bachelor editors have marriedthis year a* to make it ; look singular until one rememhera, that it is Leap Year. —Dublin Courier-Dispatch. Senator Forager says he is no , worse than his party.

THE MONTGOMERY MONITOR—THCRSDAY, »m T. g-\ 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* in the hud now.—Dublin Courier- Dispatch.

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. Sheriff Sale. Georgia—Montgomery County.
