ITS CAUSE AND CURE.
(Continued from Eighth Page.)
tiaries be emptied. Let murderers be
relieved of all stigma, and thieves be
permitted to ply their trade without
hindrance and without disgrace.
In a word, reduce the state
to nihil —to a nebulous chaos—leaving
to future generations the task of or
ganizing and building anew the ruined
fabric of all social and political insti
tutions. This is the programme of an
archy, and this has given it its dupli
cate name—nihilism—by which it is
designated in Russia.
No Limit to Its Evil.
"Nor does anarchism stop here. It
proclaims that the marriage bond is
a relic of barbarism, and parental pre
rogative a myth. Tt would abolish the
Ideas alike of filial obligation, and of
parental responsibility, ar.d would de
stroy the very name of husband and
wife. For the innocent pleasures and
hallowed associations of the family and
home, it would substitute the orgies of
free-lovism: and for the tender, undy
ing love of husband and of wife,
it would substitute the capricious favor
of the harlot and the changing fancy
of the libertine.
"Further than this mission of ruin,
it does not inspire. It has no plan
for the new political and social or
ganisms that are to rise, Phoenix-like,
from the ashes of the old. Its vaunted
mission is one of pitiless ruin, and be
yond the speedy accomplishment of
that object it does not look. __ There
seems to be among its votaries a* vague
hope that a long period—centuries, per
haps—of alternate destruction and re
newal may evolve at last a social sys
tem in which all will be harmony and
happiness, a government in which
there will be no tyranny and no error
—a hope that ultimately the world will
realize in the infinite perfections of
mankind all that was ever dreamed of
by pagan or by Christian in the con
ception of an all-wise, omnipotent God.
Anarchism seeks, in a word, to deify
humanity by destroying the world. It
whets the knife, or fills the bomb, or
loads the pistol of the assassin, or
places the torch in the hands of the
incendiary, saying meanwhile, ‘Let us
march on to the conquest of the God
head!’
"Such in all its horrid deformity is
the fully developed fruit of infidelity,
anew Pandora’s jar has been opened,
and whirlwinds of moral and political
pestilence begin to blow. In Russia, in
Switzerland, in Germany, France,
England and America, these tenets are
held by thousands. No monarchy or
republic or church or court of law —no
institution of our modern civilization
will be spared if this gospel of ruin
shall prevail. The Inquisition of Athe
ism would be a thousand-fold more
terrible than the Spanish Inquisition
of the Middle Ages. Its history, like
that already written of the French
revolution, whose doctrines it avows,
and whose programme it would repeat,
would be ‘written in tears and in
blood.’
Cure for Anarchy.
“So much for the cause. Let us
briefly consider the cure. Our second
text announces the remedy—the only
remedy that will ever cure a religious
and political disease of such malignity.
‘Render unto Caesar the things that
are Caesar’s, and unto God the things
that are God's.' Obedience to civil law
and reverence for the institutions of
religion are both necessary in order
to save us from the peril of anarchy.
Both go together. Civil law
has no real basis and no essential
sanctity unless it be regarded as the
expression of the Supreme Will. As
we have seen, lrreligion and lawless
ness go together; and the history of
all governments may be adduced in
proof that pure religion and enlight
ened civil legislation go hand in hand.
“There is needed in our land a re
vival of reverence for law. In the epi
demic of lynching of which so much
is now being said by the pulpit and
the press, we see the fatal tendency
toward anarchy. Of one thing, indeed,
we may be glad; that the mouths of
Northern fire-eaters are stopped, since
it has been demonstrated that a ne
gro’s life is no safer in Ohio or Indiana
than in Georgia or Texas, if he com
mit “the usual crime.” The preach
ers of the North can no longer Drate
of the South as a region given over to
lawlessness and savageism, nor can
Northern editors scribble their dia
tribes of hate, since recent occurren
ces have shown that human nature is
the same on both sides of Mason’s and
Dixon’s line, and that like causes will
produce like effects. But in this grow
ing disposition to resort to mob law
there is evidence of fearful degener
ation among our people. North and
South, and a menace to the perpetuity
of our free institutions. What Is mob
law but anarchy? If a mob may in
flict the death penalty for one offense,
why may it not for another? And un
less this tendency of the maddened
masses to take the law in their own
hands be stopped, the time is at hand
when every community will be gov
erned, if governed at all, by a self
elected vigilance committee. And what
is that but anarchy?
Labor Day at Tybee.
"The recent occurrences at Tybee but
illustrate a fact that has become pain
fully patent to thinking men since the
war with Spain. Our army is filled
with men who have no regard for law.
It would seem as if the soldier, dis
guised in his uniform, regarded the
civilian as his inferior and the police
man as his natural enemy. He thinks,
as do multiplied thousands in this
'land of the free and home of the
brave,’ that a free country means a
country in which every man may do as
he pleases, law or no law. And hence
it is that the progress of the organiza
tion and drilling and transportation of
our army was almost everywhere
marked by riot and brawl and blood
shed. There were mutinies and riots
in camp and on transports bound for
Manila, and on trains going home
ward. And when our soldiers have
landed on foreign shores, they have
proceeded to conduct themselves
oftentimes more like brutes than
like human beings. Only in China
—let it be said to the credit of our reg
ular army—did our soldiers in their
dealings with the poor natives show
themselves proper representatives of
cur great republic; and there they were
vastly superior to the beasts In uniform
let loose upon the helpless Chinese by
the so-called Christian Powers of Eu
rope. But facts enough have come to
light, illuminating the insubordination
of our soldiers. Their frequent refus
als to obey either civil or military law
show that there is needed among them
a revival of reverence for law.

alent disregard for law by our railroad

sentiment of this commonwealth, as
well as by ignoring other laws, they are
undermining the very foundations of
our free government and as to the vio
lation of the Sabbath, it may be said.
No Sabbath, no church. Let the sanc
tity of God's holy day be disregarded,
and it is simply a question of time
when every law that would restrain
men in the pursuit of pleasure or of
business, will be considered as a relic
of barbarism.
"The same statement holds good with
regard to the social clubs which delib
erately refuse to obey our Sunday liq
quor laws. These men are fostering the
spirit of anarchy. Their professions of
patriotism and of religion are alike
hypocritical. No true patriot, whether
he be Jew or Christian, will trample
the law of the land underfoot. And,
more than that, some of these men
those especially who pose as the model
gentlemen—the emancipated intellects
of our community—are obnoxious to
the charge of being accessory to the
guilt of the attempt upon the life of
our President. They have not, indeed,
approved or condoned that particular
deed; but theirs is the same spirit of
unbelief In the sanctity of law, and the
same unbelief of Divine Revelation that
inspired the mad act of the would-be
murderer of McKinley.
Need for Reverence for God.
“And in order to this revival of rever
ence for law there is needed a revival
j of reverence for God. Men will not will
ingly render unto Caesar the things
that are Caesar’s unless they are will
i ing also to render unto God the things
that are God's. Civil law roots itself
in the eternal principles of right con
! tained in the jurisprudence adopted by
that ancient commonwealth of which
God himself was King and head. The
Christian religion bids men submit to
j ‘every ordinance of man for
; the Lord’s sake, whether it
be to the King as
supreme, or unto governors as unto
them that are sent by him for the pun
ishment of evil-doers, and for the
praise of them that do. well.’ Just in
proportion as any community is Chris
tian in sentiment it is law abiding.
Recognition, therefore, of Divine au
thority, as underlying the law of our
land, is necessary in order to the pre
servation of our free institutions.
"I would urge upon you, then, the
duty of reverence for the Bible. Be as
sured that this book, upon whose prin
ciples every great modern common
wealth is founded, and which underlies
the whole fabric of our modern civili
zation, is not to be iightly dismissed
to the category of old wives’ fables.
‘The fear of the Lord is the beginning
of wisdom.’ This is true morally, so
cially, politically. Reverence for God —
regard for his will as embodied in this
oldest of moral codes —is the very basis
of individual integrity of character. The
great infidels of the world have been
men who justified the commission of
almost every iniquity here forbidden.
Reverence for God must underly any
pure social system. Just in proportion
as we drift away from this book, we
drift toward free divorce, which t3
free love and libertinism, and on to
ward every other moral evil. Reverence
for God's law is the foundation of all
just and enlightened government.
Uphold tlie Sabbath.
“The church of God, so often de
spised, deserves and demands the re
spect of the people. She has ever been
the champion of the oppressed, and
throughout the ages has for the
rights of the poor, the widowed and the
fatherless. And when workingmen al
low themselves to be prejudiced against
the church by such shallow thinkers
and crazy theorists as the harlot from
whom Czolgosz derived his inspira
tion, they are turning against the only
institution which can guide them to
abiding peace and prosperity. And,
further, let me urge upon all the sanc
tity of the Sabbath. The day which the
civil law makes a day of rest, and
which the church elects as the day
when men and women and little chil
dren are to be called together for wor
ship and for meditation upon God and
heaven and immortality, may not be
despised and desecrated at will with
out results that are awful in their
menace both to the individual and the
nation. Destroy this institution, and
you destroy the church of God, and all
its holy ordinances, and when the
Church of God falls—if that were pos
sible—the very pillars which uphold
the state would be thrown down, and
anarchy will be the final result
for this world, and what, think
you, must be the result in the world
to come?
“Finally, if we would be sincere in
our sympathy for the heroic sufferer
who lies prostrate at Buffalo, blessed
by the prayers of a nation—if we would
manifest the sincerity of our own
prayers in his behalf—let us seek to
emulate that Christian deportment
which has won for him the confidence
and the love of this great common
wealth. Let us revere the Blessed
Book in which he believes, and upon
which his noble character has been
formed; let us love the Sabbath as he
loves it, and attend upon its services
as he has done, both in his public and
in his private life. Let us, by word and
deed, as he has done, seek to uphold
the truth of God. visibly expressed in
the church and its ordinances; and so
will we help to bring on the blessed
period dreamed of by prophet, sage and
poet, when
“The common sense of most shall hold
a fretful realm in awe,
And the kindly earth shall slumber,
lapt in universal law.”
LOVE HIM AS A MAN.
Rev. Mr. Van Ileventer Spoke Feel
initly of the Wounded President.
Prayers for the speedy recovery of
President McKinley were offered at the
services hlld yesterday in the Duffy
Street Baptist Church. A high tribute
was paid by Rev. R. Van Deventer, the
pastor, during the morning service,
which was largely attended.
The minister remembered the day he
first saw President McKinley. It was
in Atlanta, where Hobson and Wheeler
were being entertained as the heroes
that they are in the eyes of the Ameri
can people. Mr. Van Deventer recall
ed his first impression of the nation's
ruler. He impressed him as one being
most pleased, and happy to cheer and
to applaud those who have won re
nown. His beautiful character and
spirit made a lasting impression on Mr.
Van Deventer, who looks upon him as
the greatest hero of them all.
Mr. Van Deventer spoke of the Presi
dent's exemplary life, and of his fine
character, of the earned devotion of
his people and of his true worth to
those who hold him in such high affec
tion and esteem. Politically, the min
ister Is not of the same mind as Mr.
McKinley. He said, however, that if
the President were a Democrat he
would be regarded and worshiped by
the people of the South as no man has
been since the days of JelTerson Davis.
“Our sympathies and our anxious ex
pressions go out to him. not as a poli
tician, or as the representative of the
Republican party," said Mr. Van De
venter, “but as a citizen of the United
States and our President. Every man
who loves character, every man who
esteems patriotism and every man who
admires the one who acts and does that
which he sincerely believes Is right will
pray for the early recovery of Presi
dent McKinley. Every woman who ap
preciate- the devotion and lovingcare
of a husband or a father will bend her
knees and with uplifted voice ask God
In his infinite mercy to give the wound
ed ruler strength to bear his pain,
finally to restore him to an anxious
t and loving family."

MORPHINE ENDED LIFE.
James P. Williams Dead at His
Father’s House.
Atlanta, Sept. B.—James P. Williams,
a broker from New Orleans, was found
dead here this morning at the residence
of his father, W. B. Williams, at No.
290 Woodward avenue, as the result of
an overdose of morphine.
According to the statement of the
father of the dead man. Williams has
been afflicted with paralysis, and has
for the last few weeks been visiting
his father and receiving treatment from
a local physician. Last night Williams
asked his father to put a glass of wa
ter in his room, which he occupied
alone. This morning he was found
dead, and a bottle which must have
contained 60 grains of morphine was
found half emptied, and the water was
gone.
Williams was an unmarried man. The
body was taken to Buford, Ga., to
night, and the interment will occur
there to-morrow.

sition.
A telegram was received this after

states that amid the tears of his con
gregation, Dr. McConnell announced
this morning, at the regular meeting

tidewater record. He covered the dis
tance in 5 minutes, 8 2-5 seconds.
The former record was held by John
Rumohr of New York, his time being
5 minutes 27 seconds. It was expected
that Titus would be paced by an eight

water he rowed over the course alone.
A “Lovely” Funeral.
From the London Globe.
A concise and amusing domestic
picture is contained in an appeal
handed in to the bench by a pick
pocket: “My parents and my two sis
ters were Just sitting down to tea. and
everything seemed to speak of pence
and happiness.” Something the same
idea was expressed the other day by a
charwoman grateful for the granting
of a day’s holiday, spent at a distant
relative’s funeral. “There was all my
nieces there, and three kinds of caike;
oh, it was lovely,” she said.
A Pen Picture of Savannah From the
Hand of Our Visiting Friend, Dr.
E. D. Newton.
Mr. Editor—My Dear Sir; Savannah
is truly a charming city. most
attractive, the most prosperous and, we
may say, the most beautiful city in the
entire South. A city of parks, monu
ments and churches and one in which
the "military spirit” is triumphant. Its
bluff Is crowded with warehouses, re
plete with cotton (short and long sta
ple), naval stores, lumber and rice, for
home consumption and for foreign
shipment. At its base the majestic Sa
vannah, silent,' deep and widening to
the sea, offers a safe harbor for a
countless merchant marine, bristling
with mast and spar. Its successful
newspapers tell of its commercial en
terprise and its beautiful cemeteries
speak of the deep reverence for the
dead. The railways to Tybee, Thun
derbolt, Isle of Hope and the steam
boats to Wilmington and Warsaw Isl
ands offer delightful “outings" for its
citizens during the spring and summer
months. The Central of Georgia, Sea
board and Plant Systems stretch their
long urms through middle, seaboard
and Southern Georgia and beyond to
Alabama and Florida. The hospitals,
St. Joseph’s, the City Hospital and the
Park View Sanitarium, reflect great
credit upon the medical men of your
city, for their appointments are excel
lent and their capacity equal to any
emergency. In hygiene, however, the
crowning glory of Savannah, is its
Turkish bath. Rev. Jbhn Wesley, in
preaching to “the great unwashed" in
the suburban portions of London, once
declared that “Next to godliness is
cleanliness.” So it seems that the
Turkish bath is a co-worker with the
Church,and it should follow Sam Jones
In his periodic convulsions of society.
This path, the most powerful thera
peutic agent known to medical science,
is also the most delightful promoter
of health and happiness. It is our
only earthly paradise. One hath truth
fully spoken of “ a dream,” a sequent
of a Turkish bath. That he had en
joyed an Interview' with St. Peter at
the portal of the Eternal Gate
and heard the echoes of the Angelic
Chorus within. The most cruel preju
dice exists towards the Turkish th
by those who In their first bath have
remained too long In "the sweating
room.” This room is of no necessity
in our semi-equatorial climate during
the hot summer months, for then the
■kin is always active. The novice, in
his first Turkish bath, should deny
himself the pleasures of the hot air
room. The proprietor of the Savannah
Turkish bath is himself a gladiator
strong and In perfect health. Almost
any one, through this bath, and by a
judicious system of physical culture, in
which the lungs are carefully and fully
expanded, may become a Sparticus in
physique. The hot air (or now so-call
ed Turkish) bath was known to the
men of Tyre and Sidon a thousand
years before the birth of Christ —also
to the Greek and the Roman. The
remains of the old hot air baths can
now be seen in England, introduced by
the conquering legions of Rome. The
recent bath, called “the Hammam” by
the Arab, was re-introduced into West
ern Europe by Mr. Urquhart, a mem
ber of the English Parliament, and es
tablished in Blarney in Ireland and
also in London—about the middle of
the nineteenth century. There are but
two Turkish baths in Georgia, one in
Savannah, the other in Atlanta. We
regret that it is not utilized in our
great sanitarium of the state at Mil
ledgeville and in every hospital in
Georgia and the South. Its wonderful
therapeutic power is unappreciated by
our medical men. Pardon me, Mr. Ed
itor, in writing so much about this
great bath, a great boon to intelligent
humanity, for It has been my special
study for twenty years. It is superior
to all baths, with its sweating room,
needle bath, shampoo, massage, swim
ming pool and rest after the bath.
Faithfully yours, Edwin D. Newton, A.
