rowed money, which It had been nec
essary to borrow In order to keep the
missionaries In the field. He stated
that the contributions from the bounds
of the Southern Baptist convention

alsed last year at this date, but that
there had been a marked Increase with

that this shortage would be overcome
and an even better showing made by

Scarcity of Preachers.
The qusetton of a telegram ft con
gratulatlon to the legislature of Ala
bama on the passage of the prohibition
bill came up again yesterday and, ns
was the cose the day before, brought
forth a spirited discussion. The tele
gram was finally authorized with the
change that Instead of sending It to the
legislature. It be directed to the “People
of Alabama.’’
Dr. Solomon stated that he could see
no possible reason for opposition to
the telegram. He called attention of
the body to tho fact that the State
Baptist Convention, at Cartersvllle last
rear, had petitioned tho Georgia legls-
ature to pas* the present prohibition
law of this state. Dr. J. D. Mell made
the point of order and was sustained
by President Northern The president's
decision was appealed from by H. M.
Melton. Dr, 8. Y. Jameson made the
point that tho whole matter was out
of order, as It was tlmo for the forelgt
mission report, which was sustained
by the convention.
At the completion of the special busl
ness Dr. Solomon introduced the reso
lution again, addressing the congratu-
Intory telegram to the "People of Ala
bama," and In this shape It *as unan
Imously adopted.
The scarcity of preachers In the
bounds of the State Baptist conven*
tinn was discussed, the discussion
bringing out the fact that not only In
Georgia and the South was this great
need keenly felt, l>u,: that taking the
United States n* a whole there were
560 people In the country for every or
dained preacher.
Rev. Graham Forrester created some
thing of a sensation by stating that In
n certain territory In Georgia, em
bracing nn area as largo as the state
of Rhode Island, there was but one
minister and he was not a Baptist. He
raid that In an hour’s ride of Valdosta
throe school teachers had been dis
missed for opening their schools with
prayer, and that within a day's Jour
ney df this city there was as flourish
ing a band of Mormons as could be found
outside of Utah He knew a com
munity in Georgia where preachers
were ro scarce that funerals of people
who died In January were preached In
July, an-l those who died between July
and January were preached at tho end
of the six months. Six young ministers
who ere to take up *Jie work In Che
destitute sections were presented to
the convention.

All tho evidence in the case ad

Although the prosecution failed

It was stated on the witness stand
by B. H. Burroughs, traveling auditor
