Ralph Smith, the Atlanta Jour
nal reporter w ho accompanies Hon.
Hoke Smith on his campaign trips
through Georgia, has Ikhmi accused
of sending his pajier some highly
colored reports concerning tin* re
ceptions tendered his candidate by
the people at various points where
that distinguished gentleman has
addressed the voters. Speaking
with the knowledge of one present
at the Hoke Smith meeting in Se-
noia last Saturday, the News edi
tor will frankly say that Ralph
Sini 1 h gave Sunday’s Journal a
fair and truthful statment of Hoke
Smith's reception and speech in
Senoia. If his reports of Mr.
Smith's speeches over the State
are all as accurate as his report of
the Senoia meeting, they indicate
that Hoke Smith will sweep tieor
gia like a cyclone from the moun
tains to the sea. The si/e and
temper of the crowd at Senoia
showed that the eastern and south

neighboring sections of adjoining
comities arc safely in the Hoke

While on our knees praying, not
long since, this thought came into
our mind: that there are a great
many Jonahs in the land today.
We can look around and see them
on every hand. We have been
made to wonder oftentimes, espe
cially since attending the Torres -
Alexandcr meetings, and hearing
Dr. Torrey make such strong ap
peals to Christians as to what our
duties are to the Lord, the church
and to each other, that 1 le doesn’t
check us in some way, like he did
Jonah ot old. The Lord has just
as emphatically called us to cry
out against the great wickedness
that is in our churches, as He did
Jonah to cry against the wicked
ness ot Nineveh;and we have as
emphatically refused to obey. We
as Christians are not doing our
duty, else there would not be so
much confusion in the churches
all the time. We are just as fast
I asleep as Jonah was. t he writer
is ready to plead guilty, and fall
on our knees ami beg for guidance
as to what step to take to bring
the church into closer relationship
with the blessed Savior. A great
many churches today are being
tossed about by mighty tempests,
on account of the sleeping Jonahs,
as was that ship in the midst of
the sea, on its way to Tarshish.
As we said in the outset, the
Lord has called all who are Chris
tians to perform some duty along
the lined church work. As God’s
housekeepers, we should be very
busy—keeping all forms of evil out
ot the church. We have no right
to lot Satan and his crowd come in
and seemingly take full possession.
Everything in connection with the
church should be conducted by
bumble followers of the meek and
lowly Savior. The preacher should
be a spirit-filled man. The Sun
day school (superintendent, the
teachers and the leaders of prayer
meetings and directors of music
should all have the indwelling of
the Holy Spirit, else they should
not hold those offices. The first
and main' thing that causes more
trouble in our churches today,is
that our preachers take too many
into the churches without any ex
perience. If a child takes a notion
to join the church and be baptized,
the preacher goes to it and asks it
a few questions—of course it an
swers them quite readily, because
they are very simple. But sup
pose peo ile had to stand up now,
before an audience, like your hum
ble servant, the scribe did, and tell
what the Lord had done for their
souls; when they were convicted of
sin, and fell on their knees and
.plead for mercy, and the Lord
heard and blessed them. We dare
say there would be fewer uncon
verted church members today by
half, yea, three-fourths, than there
are.
Will say right here, conviction is
not very deep that does not bring
folks to their knees; and would feel
safe in saying there are very few
saved except they fall on their
knees and plead for mercy at the
feet of Jesus. Now we would not
like tor anybody to think that we
are not in favor of praying with
and talking to the unsaved regard
ing their soul’s salvation; in fact
we are very much in favor of it;
but let everybody tell their own
experience when they join the
church.
It seems that we have left Jonah
out of the question, but will re
turn to him presently. Our mind
is so taken up with the church that
we study about it day and night,
until we are forced to go to sleep.
But back to Jonah. The Lord had
a mission for Jonah to fill, and he!
had to fill it; though he was'
brought very low before he was
willing to take up his work. So a
great many of us will have to be
brought very low, before wo wake
up to the responsibilities that are
resting on us
We have a very important work
to do in keeping the church of
God pure and clean. The church
of God is a city set on a hill,whose
light cannot be hid. That means
that every member should be in
perfect harmony with each other,
(for if we are God's children vve
arc members one of another),
working together for the glory of
the Lord (like they do in Dr.
Broughton’s Tabernacle 1.
Right along this line is where so
many became Jonahs. When we |
find that some of our members are
not living and practicing the right
thing, we should go to them in
meekness and pursuade them to
get right with God. If they will
not hear us, report them to the
church, which is the body of Christ;
and if the church can't bring them
to terms, withdraw fellowship
from them, because they do the
church more harm than good. No
matter how rich they are, it will
not hurt them to be turned out of
the church; if they have ever been
converted they will soon come
back. The church loses its in
fluence by retaining disorderly
members. We have something
like tiiis thrown in our face quite
often. Your church allows its
mcmbeis to do this, that and the
other,
Now let us not be Jonahs any
longer. Mrs. J. II. Summers.
