doue, what crime lmd you com

accounts, were you incompetent;
had you deserted the party, had
you been associating too freely
with respectable poople?” "tell
us all about it if you feel so dis
posed, for we have heard various
rumors in regard to the matter
and would be glad to got tho
straight of it.” To ourqueslions
Mr. Findlay replied Virtually as
follows: "I was nevor notified
that there were ,any charges
against me of any kind, I was
simply dismissed at the request
of democrats and without cause,”
“How is it then Mr. Findlay,”
wo asked, “that we find you, a
gentleman of moral and intellect-
nal worth, a statesman of rare
ability and withal a devoted par
tisan, now spending jour time,
your tslehts and your cash, in
the interest of a party which ac
cording to your own statement
has ruthlessly and unjustly kick
ed you out of a good job without
cause and just to please the dem
ocrats?’’ "In our opinion yon
should renounce ropuheauism,
deuounce the postmaster gener
al, cuss Roosevelt and vote for

ingand Findlay hurried away
but wo confidently believed that
we almost persuaded him to try

invited to oome out
Rev. W. D. Upshaw pleased
large congregations at the Bap
tist church Sunday.
Mr. Upshaw announced aa the
subject of the-morning sermoD
The Christian's Wealth,
speaking from the text, “All
things are yours,” in 3rd chapter
ot 1st Cor. .
He said merchants' have a
way of taking stoek—a fact nec
essary to understand their finan
cial status and project their
commercial plans. He believed
that people ought to take stock
often in what they have, not
only iti things commercial, but
in the realm patriotic and the'
realm religious. Speaking of
tilings patriotic there was
brilliant tribute to Southern
valor, which stirred - every old
Confederate soldier in the audi
once. i
His references to the "glorious
past” of several different denom
inations were broad and beauti
ful.
Coming down to the “in
ventory,” which lie said ho
wanted every child of God to
make, ho mentioned as some of
tho items of a Christian's heri
tage, tho Bible; the' miracle of
tijo indwelling Christ; the fel
lowship of God’s saints; tho
privilege of being a worker to
gether with God; the presence
of the comforter in sorrow and
in death; and crowning all
other wealth, the privilege of
being forever with tho Re
deemer. The folly of investing
In. tho things that perish, in
stead of the things that endure,
was especially striding. He urged
iu conclusion that all Chript.iijuiB
who rejoice in the wealth .of
Christ in the heart and life
oughttocount .it a privilege to
distribute this wealth to those
who have it not. The message
was especially appropriate for
the beginning of revival services.;
In the afternoon Mr. Upshaw
addressed a large crowd of men
and boys under the auspices of
the Y. M. O. A., taking for bis
subject, “Principal and Inter
est.” ' With an occasional gleam
of humor—then strong argu
ment and heart-reaching pathos
—he appealed to the men before
him to make the moat that is
possible out of their lives.
An immense audience heard
MrT Upshaw at night in a
graphic discourse on the words
O Death.” Tlie impression was
profound, and many ashed for
prayer. - One gentleman re-
mat kod that ho had nevor tee.i n
meeting begin in Waycross with
so much interest manifested on
the first day.
Today Mr. Upshaw visited the
school und won the children's
hearts by his bright and iuspir-
iug talks.
I meet with her sisters in the Miss
sionary and Aid meetings.’ Her
rrody hand and synfpathetie
voice will be missed atmong ns.
Her open ear was ever open to
the cry of the needy, her loving
bands ministered to the sick and
■ufiering, she went in and out
among us for yeass as an angel
of Mercy. While she is not
for God hath taken her, none
need mourn her departure for
she was fully ripe and hath en
tered into the joy of her Lord.
To the children and grandchild

patby, follow the Savior who was
the comfort and solace of your
dearoue and you may in God,s
own time be a reunited family
Resolved, that this tribute be
inscribed upon our minutes in
loving memory of our sister.

At Baptist Cbnrcb.
A large audience and a aplen
did meeting marked the second
night of the revival at the Bap
tist church lastnight. Mr. Wm.
D. Upshaw, who pleasantly said
that he did hot like to see the
word t'Reverend” before ‘ his
name, spoke on “The Divine Im
pulse To Spaak To Others What
God Has Spoken to Us” the text
being from the 4th chapter of
Acts and 20tb verse; “For we
caunot but speak wbat we have
aeeu and heard.”
He said that the words of Peter
and John to the lame man who
lay at the Beautiful Gate of the
Temple, is what tho church of
the living God must say to those
who are maimed by sin: "In the
name of Jesus of Nazareth rise
up and walk.’’ Not in the name
of some ceremony, not in the
name of nominal church mem
bership, not in the name of some
lodge, however good, not in the
name of mere morality, but in
the name of Christ and liij aton
ing blood -through a uew heart
in Him, let those in sin rise up
and walk! ^
At the conclusion of the ser
