Wall street I, opposed to any doctrine
held by President Roosevelt It Is cer
tainly not a Republican doctrine. When
we came up against the corruption
fund In 1896 we found no more ardent
champion of these special Interests
than Mr. Roosevelt."
Evansville, Ind., April 18.—The Hen
dricks Club, the largest Democratic
organization In the state, while cele
brating the birthday of Thomas Jef
ferson, adopted ,the foil ,;>g resolu
tion and telegraphed It to Hon. John
Temple Graves.,of Atlanta, Go.:
-The Hendricks Club, of Evansville,
behaves that, ,tn the interest of a
‘square deal,’ Roosevelt should nomi
nate Bryan for president In 1908, as
there Is now no doubt that Bryan was
beaten In 1896 by the contribution of
money from Insurance companies, rail
road companies and tariff protected
monopolies, nnd that President Roose
velt knew this to bo a fact, and that
Bryan In 1896 stood on the platform
on which Roosevelt now stands on rail
road regulation."
8AYS PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT
CHAMPIONED THE “INTERESTS.”
Bristol, Tenn., April 18.—William J.
Bryan, while here yesterday, said:
"The president seems unduly excited
over the alleged 86,000,000 Wall street
fund to prevent his re-election. If
THINKS A THIRD TERM
SHOULDN’T BE TOLERATED.
Roanoke. Va., April IS.—William
Jennings, Bryan, when asked for an
expression on the suggestion made by
Hon. John Temple Graves, of Atlanta,
that Bryan nominate Roosevelt for
president, said:
“I said at the banquet In Chatta-
nboga all that at present I can say. I
then said: ‘As at present advised, I
can hot see that It Is my duty to nomi
nate Mr. Roosevelt.’ In both of my
campaigns I stated that 1 would not be
a candidate for a second term. If elect
ed, and as I have endeavored to secura
a constitutional amendment making a
president Ineligible for a second term, 1
could not conscientiously urge the re-
nomination of Mr. Roosevelt for a sec
ond torm, even If there -was no other
reasons."

When "Bertha,-The Sewing Machine
Girl," appear* at the Bijou next week,
the many frlende of Robert H. Good
man, whoae home Is In this city, wilt
be pleased to know that he Is manager
of that company. “Bob" haa been
away from Atlanta of late yeara and
until last summer was on the staff of
the New York Morning Telegraph. By
hie conscientious work and hustling
abilities while In the employ of that
paper he endeared himself Into the good
graces of the proprietors, who were
loath to lose his services, when he re
signed his position to accept an en
gagement with A, H. Wood*, the well-
known New York manager. But ’’Bob”
was always an enthusiastic adherent
of all things pertaining to the ”dra-
mer” and away from the flicker of the
footlights and atmosphere of “grease
paint” life Indeed waa weary to a de
gree.
By an odd coincidence, he comes back
to Atlanta as manager of a company
that plays In the same theater where as
a boy he witnessed his very first the
atrical performance. "Bob” was mar
ried to Miss Edith Browning, the tal
ented little woman who plays the title
role In "Bertha,” In Philadelphia, Pa.,
last August. It was while on the staff
of the New York Morning Telegraph
that he first met Miss Browning, and
as they say In story books, "Life hath
no charms without her," and "Bob,”
being an ardent wooer, they were mar
ried a few weeks later.
Miss Browning Is not only a splendid
roung acne.., but Is also a very beau
tiful woman. Her home Is In Chicago.
111., and this Is her fifth season on the
stage. It was while the was. playing
the leading role with Lincoln J. Car
ter’s "Fast Mall" that she attracted
the attention of the Eastern managers,
and William G. Brady engaged her for
the following season to play the leade
In hie "Lovers’ Lane" company. Miss
Browning's clever work with "Lovers’
Lane” caught the eye of A. H. Woods
and h; engaged her for three years. Mr.
Woods has a new play written especial,
ly for her In which she will bp starred
tho coming season. ,

HIqIi Pressure Days.
Men and women alike have to work
incessantly with brain and hntid to hold
their own nowadays. Never were the
demands of business, the wants of the
family, the requirements, of society,
more numerous. The first effect of the
praiseworthy effort to keep up with all
these things Is commonly seen In a
weakened os debilitated condition of
the nervous system, which results tn
dyspepsia, defective nutrition of both
body and brain, and In extreme cases
In complete nervous prostration. It is
clearly seen that what ie needed Is
what Will sustain the syetem. give
vigor and tone to the nerves, and keen

knowledge, we can recommend Hood's

EMPTY CANISTER.
And How it Led to Knowledge of
Better Things,
A housewife found the coffee canleter
empty one day, which proved a blessing
to her husband and mother.
“Up to about four years ago 1 had
been a great coffee drinker.
“In an, hour or two after my usual
morning cup I would be weak and
nervous.
“A friend told me I must quit drink
ing coffee and suggested that I try

much oa I had formerly enjoyed coffse.

“For some time I served both coffee
and Postum at our table, a* my mother

Should the Church of Christ obey
the command to prepare the way for
the coming of Christ's kingdom? Then
why should not she boldly champion
the moat needed reform?
In nearly all the cities we And the
churches In the midst of evils, and most
of them at peace with these evils. Muny
Individuals In tho community are In
dally conflict with the direst evils, but
not always so with the churches, as
such. To be sure they are opposed to
evil the world over, but It. la more
often In the abstract than the concrete.
Few churches there be which do not
condemn evil, but how many are there
which boldly and courageously lay
hands uppn It, determined that It shall
not exist near them on peaceful terms?
Behold the abomination of desolation,
the licensed saloon, eternally at enmiLv
with all that In good and lit league with
the devil and all tnat la evil. How
many churches aro there here engaged
In an active warfare upon this great
evil? There are some of them. ye*.
.And with them there Is a fearful battle
raging all the while. You might attend
mnet of the churches, however, for a
year and from them alono you would
never lenrn that a saloon existed. You
certainly do not receive an Invitation to
Join In a campaign against It.
We call ourselves "SoIdlers of the
Cross,” and proclaim to the world that
we have been called into the service of
Him who was “nailed to the cross,"
Someone has said: ‘‘Whose Idea of
‘service' Is It to ‘sit and sing ourselves
a way to everlasting bliss,’ while vice
and crime, moral and physical tilth.
Ignorance and wretchedness remain
within easy roach of everyone?"
Is there one so dead as not to realise
that the apathy of thousands of goo-1
people touching tile prevalent evil of
this country would be Impossible hail
the church a greater conception of her
real mission In the world?
“Whenever a Christian anywhere Is
at peace with sin In his life, when he
becomes Indifferent to anything In his
own character which renders him un
like Christ, he le disloyal tn his Mnn-
ter.” In like manner when the Church
of Christ Is at peace with any sin of
society, or becomes reconciled to tho
evil* of the community or Indifferent to
the pleas of suffering humanity. It Is
disloyal to God.
Are the saloons, are pauperism and
.Ime In keeping with the coming of the
kingdom? If they are not, then they
are tn.the way of Ite coming, and It Is
within the province of the church to
clear them from the way. If It bo the
duty of the church to relieve the poor,
Is there not also a duty there concern
ing the prime causes of poverty?
But you say to deal with the saloon
Is a political movement and the church
as such can not go Into politics. I
maintain that the church can not really
fulllll her God-appointed mission and
not have to do with politic*. "Render
therefore unto Caesar tho things that
be Caesar’s and unto God the things
that bo God's." This is the church’s
warrant for taking part In politics. Do
you observe that It Is Caesar and God.
not Caesar or God?
The devil has persuaded a great
many good people that they should take
no purt In political affairs—that as the
church and state nro separate Institu
tions. Christian men should leave those
who are not Christians to care for the
Interests of the state. ,
The church, which I* Christ’s repre
sentative on earth, should stand for
such men a* will fairly represent Oo-J
In the state as His ministers of Justlc-,
making it possible tlmt they "shall not
bear the sword In vein."
Many of the churches In Atlnnta have
gone Into revival services, and most of
them are anticipating the greatest spir
itual awakening ever known In th-
history of the city, and God grant that
It shall be true. But nh, Christian men
and women, how Is Christ-to come Into
muny of our great churces having to
walk over so mahy dead bodies and
bring with Him the spiritual uplift so
generally expected? How Is any church
til reasonably expect a great revival or
Ingathering of lost, souls until the
Mumbling blocks shall first be removed
from the door?
8o long as dozens and scores of our
leading members buck up the open sa
loon. the gambling licit and the brothel
with their votes, so lung as they Indorse
these emissaries of hell by renting their
houses to them, by signing their appli
cation* for license anil going on their
bonds, Bnd then patronizing them In
great numbers; so long os Sunday
then over the card table gamble for cut
glass and'silver trophies, or quaff the
sparkling wine around the feetlve board
and In the gilded saloon; so long us
deacons and stewards lift the linen
from the Lord's table on Sunday and
then quaff the beverage of hell at the
bar counter on Monday: so lung ns the
pastors shall permit these things to oe.
without an unmistakable, uncompro
mising protest, Just so long will they
exist Rnd the churches of Christ be
greatly handicapped In their efforts to
seek and to save lost men.
When the half million voting rhuren
members in Georgia begin to fear God
rather than men and put the love if
Christ above their sordid wealth; when
they place a greater estimate upon
Christian principles than upon partisan
politics; when they begin tn love human
life mid happiness and righteousness
more than personal triumphs and the
revenue from the liquor traffic; whan
they are more charitable than selfish
nnd envious, we shall witness a social
revelation nnd a moral reformation
such as the world ha* never seen be
fore.
The Lord God of our fathers hasten
the day and the hour.
