AI !>an\ Herald. 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 eastern sections of Coweta and neighboring sections of adjoining comities arc safely in the Hoke Sinith column.

Manager .Etna Life Insurance Company. 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.
