JUSTICE BREWER ON RELIGIO.\'.I
Justice Brewer of the United
States supreme court is accredited
with the following:
“I don’t care anything about
creeds. 1 haven't time to quibble
over the theological questions. If T
had the leisure I should find theolo- |
gy to be a good intellectual exercise.
I could be comfortable in a Baptist,
Methodist, Presbyterian or Cathoiic
church and even in a Jewish syna
gogue. 1 was reared a Congrega
tionalist, but if my father had been'
an Episcopalian I suppose I'd have |
been one. 1 believe in the creed of]
Jesus Christ, the parable of the Good
Samaritan and the golden rule. No
more is necessary on this earth. 1
fully respect the teachings of Christ’s
life, although I am afraid I don’t
"always live up to them. But life is
the most important human question
!»Mto be kindly and helpful. There
;is no theology in binding up a man’'s
iwounds, giving him wine and oil,
leading him to an inn and saying
;to the landlord, ‘Take care of him
and whatever thou spendest more,
' when [ come again I will pay thee.’
That is not theology; it is only re
| ligion.”

!()lu)}.\l\l:\' CHEATHAM HAS RE
: CEIVED PENSION MONEY.
| e
| Terrell Draws One of the Smallest
| Amounts Per Capita of Any
County in the State.
| Ordinary W. B. Cheatham received
;on Saturday a check for $3,835 in
i?p:lymem of the pensioners in this
county for the present year, and is
now distributing it among the old
veterans and the widows.
This payment marks the return of
the old annual payment system and
will be hailed with delight by those
who get their money in Terrell
county.
Terrell county, according to popu
lation, receives one of the smallest
amounts paid for pensions of any
county in the state. It is a remark
‘able fact that more pension money
is drawn from the state treasury by
the counties of north Georgia, which
furnished very few soldiers, than of
any other section of the state. Banks ‘
county, for instance, with a popula
tion of 10,000 draws $9,660 in pen- |
sions, or almost $l.OO for each in-!
habitant, while Terrell county with
a population of 20,000 draws only‘
$3,835, or less than 20 cents per
capita.
The Georgia counties which receive
more than $lO,OOO from the pen
sion fund are as follows: Bartow, |
$13,070; Bibb, $20,505; Carroll,|
$17,085. Cobb, $lB 435:; Coweta,{
$12.170; DeKalb, $13,015; Elbert, |
$10,186; Floyd, $17,055; Haber-i
sham, $10,390; Hall, $17,505; Hart,
$10,190; Jackson, $12,215; Musco
gee, $15,865; Richmond, $15,740;
Spalding, $11,910.
Although Chatham county proba-[
bly furnished more soldiers to the
confederacy than any other county
in the state its total pension pay
ments aggregate only $9,585.
The smallest amount of pension
money to any one county goes to
Quitman—s96o. Next to this are
Mcilntosh drawing $1,140, and Cam
den $1,240.
