CASH PRICES
The writer has been very much
impressed with the above passage
for a long time, but much more so
for the past week since we attend-
ed si prayer service and the qttov
1 tion came up as to how much we
were doing for tin* cause til t'hrist
and was < lu istiauity growing or
on the decline?
Home seemed to think it was on
the decline and offered some sug
gestions that would Ik 1 helpful to
its growth if put in practice, some
seemed to l>e satisfied with the
present condition of religious at-
fairs, and one brother seemed to
feel pretty good because it is easier
to raise money now than it was 40
years ago. Itut is it any reason
that Christianity is growing be
cause people give more money than
they used tot Your humble scribe
thinks not, but is of the opinion
that it's ou the decline in this part
of the world, and would like to
have made a few remarks to that
effect, but being of the sex that is
commanded to keep silent, we held
our peace.
I’eoplc give money some times
because they don’t want Homebody
else to get ahead of them; but the
Ituok Hays “a cheerful giver.”
Now one tenth of everything we
eceive belongs to the Lord, and
that don’t take anything off of out
giving. What we give above that
is u freewill offering; and that is
where the “cheerful giver” comes
n at. It is not near as hard to
pay back anything that has been
mi rowed as it is to give the same
amount. It is not so much any
way in what we give;or how much,
but the spirit in which we give.
There are a great many ways in
which we can give without giving
money. We can give our prayers,
time, influence ami service. The
Pharisee of old thought he was a
cheerful giver” when he stood

he was not us other men, and said
“I give tithes of all I possess

Bion Williams Will Run in
the Democratic Primary.
Col. Bion Williams, tlie genial
editor of the Woodbury Messen
ger, and brother of Postmaster K.
I,. Williams, of Griffin, was in the
city yesterday mingling with his
friends. Col. Williams is one of
the old time Populist leaders of
Meriwether and the Fourth Con
gressional district and was asked
whether the Populists would put
out a candidate for governor 01-
put all their trust in Hoke Smith.
He did not seem inclined to answer
the latter part of the question, but
said he did not think the Populists
would pul out a candidate of their
own.
“But 1 do know wlnit 1 am go
ing to do.” said Col. Williams.
“1 am going in the primary as a
candidate for the Democratic nomi
nation for senator in the thirty-
fourth district, composed of the
counties of Meriwether, Coweta,
Heard and Campbell, this being
Meriwether’s time to name the
man.”
This being the first intimation to
his question that Bion had ceased
F desire a place in your columns
for a few words with my friends in
and about Turin. It is a strange
impulse that we all understand—
this one to speak with our friends.
During the two years when iny
home was in Turin, I met and
made many such, I trust,ami more
than once I have felt like speaking
a friendly word, for that is all this
is.
Now and then, news has reached
me of various events, us the visit-;
ing of death in your homes, the
birth of God’s little ones, the
founding of new homes by mar
riage, and the material prosperity
of the town and surrounding coun
try. In all of these 1 have felt a
sympathetic participation. In
your sorrows, I have sorrowed, in
your joys, do I rejoice.
My stay at Vanderbilt Univer
sity for the past two years lias
been full of both pleasure anil
profit. It is truly a noble institu
tion and is accomplishing much
for our great Lord. My course
here will be completed in June,
190(1.
In conclusion, I wish to thank
you for the numberless kindnesses
1 have received at your hands, and
for your patient forbearance while
I labored among you. It is the
dear wish of my heart that you
may be prospered in store-house
and in barn and be kept in the
peace of our God.
