—Plutarch.
The General Assembly.,
The members of the general assembly are arriving
on every train. On Wednesday the house and senate
will be called to order by tbelr respective officers and
will settle down to business for the summer.
Death has made but few Invasions Iq the rank* of
the present body, and the old familiar faces are with
us once again.
For the remainder of the summer, speaking In gen
eral terms, the law making body of the state will be
with us and will concentrate Its attention on a num
ber ot measures of great Importance. >
There was a great deal of unfinished business at
the adjournment of the legislature last summer, and
much ot this consisted of measures which detnand
prompt action.
Among these are the various blits providing for pure
elections. Hon. Boykin Wright's measure, amending
the election laws so as to prevent the buying and
selling of votes, Is one of the most Important of these
measures. Much has been said of this measure alrendy,
but the importance of it cannot be exaggerated. The
people ot the state are determined that the practice
of Illegal voting, either In primary or regular electlqna,
shall cease, and they are heartily In favor of the moat
rigorous provisions looking to that end.
The appropriation for the Jamestown Exposition
Is also favored by the state at large. This will be one
of tbe most Important Industrial exhibits ever seen In
the South, and It would be little short of a misfortune
It the great Empire State of the South were not repre
sented there next year when the gates are thrown open
to the world. We do not anticipate that there will be
nny serious opposition to the appropriation, and it should
be passed at tbe earliest possible moment In order that
Georgia's exhibit may be placed to tbe most advantage.
Tho bill by Mr. Wright, of Floyd, almod at the lobby
ists, providing that "legislative counsel or ngents" shall
register with the clerk of the house, should bocomo a
law. It la a long step toward tho regulation ot lobbying
and the elimination of whatever Improper methods may
obtain In the practice. t
Tho agitation In favor of pure food legislation has
stirred the whole country and glvea a timely and em
phatic slgnlflcanco to the bill prohibiting the adultera
tion of food In tho stato of Georgia. This moasure, also,
w as Introduced by Mr. Wright, of Floyd, and will meet
with very general support
One of tho most Important of all tho measures before
the house la the bill providing that all railroads operating
In this state ahall be Incorporated undor the general
laws of this state. The anomally ot having to deal with
great railroad systema which have no corporate status
under the laws of the state Is an oversight which should
not be tolerated longer. The dlcusslon last year revealed
the tact that while there was some opposition to tbe
bill, the people themselves were heartily In favor ot It,
and It ahould be among the very first measures to go
upon the statute books.
This, however. Is hardly secondary In Importance
to the bill ot Mr. Alexander, proving that (he state road
ahould be extended to the sea. The time la rapidly ap
proaching when the present lease of the state road must
expire. Something must be done to provide for tbe
future, and there Is a strong and earnest sentiment in
fnvor of Mr. Alexanders plan. It will come In for a
goodly amount of discussion during the present session,
and It la generally agreed that it la one of tbe most vital
questions before the people ot the state.
These are. In fact, but a faw of the moat Impor
tant measure* before the legislature at this time. The
general assembly to composed of patrlotle and Intelli
gent men. second to none who have ever met here, and
tbe people expect a great deal from them. The pre
liminary work Incident to the reassembling will be over
In a day or so. and then the members will com* down
to htrd work for the neat fifty days
We are confident that they will give a good account
of themselves.
A Substitute for Bull Fights.
Arrangements are being made (or a unique sensation
by way ot celebtatlng the Fourth ot July up In the utate
of New Jersey. An enterprising railroad man, who has
alwaya had a morbid lore of railroad colllelont, has de
cided to pull off one of these frightful Impacts as a spec
tacle and la aelllng tickets for tbe performance.
It will be aomewhat expensive, to be sure. The two
giant engines which will be used for the head-on collision
have been purchased at a cost of $25,000, for wblls they
are somewhat old they are by no means out of coramls-
slon, and .are worth something more than they would
fetch ns old Iron.
He htt laid a track end engaged hie engineers—
"young dare-devils," he advertises them to be end Will
have everything In readiness when the gtoriou* Fourth
arrive!.
Railroad men throughout that pert of the country
are said to be very much Interested, as well aa the public
ie general, eo In eplta of The enormoua aum which he la
■ spending the Impreaario will no doubt make quite a neat
aum.
This It not the first time that such a stunt baa been
pulled off, to be-iure. But heretofore. It Ie contended, the
engine* have been eo old and feeble that the collision
was little better than a farce. Thle time It will be the
r*-:J thing, end the celebration ot the Fourth of July up
that way will be a notable event.
The thought occurs to ua that something of tbla kind
might be Introduced In Spain and In Spanish American
- ’"imrtes as a substitute tor the bull fight, which I* com-
g lu tor eo much of the reprobation of mankind. That
• ball fight Is brutal and brutalising there can be no
doubt. It the public mutt have excitement why not give
it to them In the form ot a combat betwsen two locotao-
tlvcs Instead of between horses nnd men on the one
hand and Infuriated hulls on the other. There IS even
a eertaln amount of personal risk In pulling off one of
these collisions, for tho man who pulls the lever has tq
Jump while tho engines are going at a high rate of speed
and there Is always a chance that he will break his neck,
which would be almost as exciting as to see him gored
to death. Still there would not bo to much of butchery
* to make a Spanish holiday and we think, on the whole,
the morals of.tbe spectators would not be quite so much
depraved.
The Tortbcomlng event will bo watched with great
Interest and we heartily recommend It to the young king
of Spain and the rulers of the Spanish American repub
lics of high and low degree. /
A Text from the Lunch Counter.
At one ot Atlanta's leading restaurants on Monday,
fifty men wero gathered around a circular table at the
hour of noon.
A gentleman of observant mind, having finished his
own dinner, quietly strolled around tbe circle to
what his neighbors wore eating. Only one man out of
tho fifty had upon his plate a piece of roast beef or any
Imported meat Tho rest were confining themselves en-
Urely to vegetables, soups, fish nnd chicken.
We learn that on yesterday tho Cudahys shut down
a $ GOO,000 meat plant in Louisville, Ky.
So It goes. The people are swift In these newspaper
days to know their enemies and to know their dangers,
and swift to rebuke iniquity when It Is .made clear,
"Honesty Is the best policy.” Old as the copy books runs
the proverb, and the desire to accumulate trequenUy
reaches the results of the dog with tbe bone, who snap
ping st the bone In the water lost the bone In his’ mouth.
We have no doubt but that tho meat monsters of
this generation have lost more In n single season by the
exposure of their horrible and cruet dishonesty than
they have gained by tbe pracUce of their Infamies for
the last three years.
The result no man can know. It Is perhaps true
that In thla generation at leaat there will not be aa much
meat eaten as In the decade which has gone before. It
will take the mass of people a long time to get over the
conception of poisoned meat or to whet their appetites
with tho recollection of the monstrous Iniquity and un-
cleannen of tbe great firms that have been accustomed
to supply the table* of the people with this element of
food.
It will be curious to watch the reeult of a diminished
meat consumption upon the health and spirit of this peo
ple. Japsn has recently enlightened the world upon the
capacity for work and endurance which can be built out
of a fish and vegetable*diet, and It may be possible that
tho object lesion of Japan, followed so soon by the mon
strous object lesson of the meet villain*, Is designed by
destiny to chango In part the diet, and perhaps tbe health
and endifrance of this greet American generation. Who
can tell but that this horrible debauchery ot poisoned
meat which has been going on longer than any ot us
can tell, may be In part the explanation of tho germ^dls-
easos, the microbe* of cold, cholera and menlngttle, and
tho other multiplied diseases which have distinguished
this generation? And who can tell but that the large
Provldonce which moves In tho affairs of mea may hare
had a hand In all these exposures, so as to give a new
lease of life and health and strength to this chosen peo
ple. upon whoso shoulders rests the hope of liberty and
progress of the world?
This Is rathor a large editorial to grow out ot a
lunch counter toxt, but taller oaks in llmos past have
grown from smaller acorns than this, and while It would
□ot be snfo for any man to predict that tho American
people are drifting Into n raco of vegetarians In diet, It
Is reasonably safe to predict and certainly pleasant to
hope that It will be a long time before we are such vora
cious meat caters aa wo have been In -the past
EX-GOVERNOR NOR THEN
•MAKES HOT STATEMENT
Colonel Charles E. Harman has thla day paid his
assessment* and formally announced for alderman for
tho Eighth ward ot Atlanta.
It was our pleasure some months ego to comment
pleasantly upon the entrance of another gentleman Into
the race to represent this ward, and we cannot do lese
than say that Vr. Harman’s entrance adda a brightness
and flavor to the race In the Eighth which will be ap
preciated throughout the city.
There are few brighter men In Georgia than Charles
E. Harman, and It may be added that there are few
more popular. Hie long connection with railroad af
fairs, his wide experience with men and with money,
end hie high character for Intelligence end probity make
hi* entrance Into local politics a theme ot congratulation
to those who wish well to the government of Atlanta.
It goea without saying, that Mr. Harman will make
a strong, brilliant race, and that the Interest* of the city
will bo essentially sate In hie able and experienced
hands.
Some Plain Talk
Aborit Criticism
of Torrey.
To the Virginians of Atlanta.
There ti e case ot charity which appeals particularly
to Virginians of Atlanta. It Involves a Virginia girl—a
tale ot suffering, a drama ot unselflah sacrifice, and a
tragedy which threatens to follow upon a tempted loyalty.
A paltry aum can straighten out a sorrowful tangle In a
young woman's Ilf* and set two young feet once more In
happy paths of usefulness and right. It Is only a few
hours work that will be needed, and the Virginians In
Georgia will find the Georgians In Georgia responsive In
co-operation. But what la done mast be done Immedi
ately—before tomorrow's sunaeL
Let those who are Interested apply to Mrs. J. B.
Wiley, of the First Baptist church, or to the head of Cir
cle No. S ot the King's Daughter*.
The Russian Decay.
(t la a great pity that there was a Portsmouth Peace
Conference.
It Is a pity that savage Russia le not now governed
by a wise Japanese mikado. Instead ot a weak, vacillat
ing, terroMtricken ctar.
A nation that tolerates massacres, a nation that
cannot restrain Us rabbled millions, should be under
•ubjugatlon and a wise protectorate. Russia la far
from being n civilised nation.
The recreant officials of the rotten government
look on while helpless men. weak women and Innocent
children ere brutally slain-
The world stands aghast at the tales of rapine sad
blood that the cables bring from this wretched land. .
A government that cannot protect Its children to
worse than no government. A nation that can, and
will not, enforce tows of peace nnd order, to a cowardly,
barbarous nation, nod It to shame and disgrace that the
world alto calmly by and permits the horrors to go on.
God does reign end the day must dawn when these
poor, harried Hebrews will not be driven from their
homes, when the cities and villages ot darkest Russia
will no longer be lairs ot beasts, and shambles of grief,
sorrow and despair.
After a week of silence, during which
time the town has been agog with
much talk about the Torrey-Alexander
revival, former Governor William J.
Northern president of the Bualnesa
Men's Gospel Union and the leader In
the movement that brought Dr. Torrey
to Atlanta, has made his say.
Governor Northen waxes warm In hi*
statement. He says he hopes the con
troversy to over. He also says that If
those who contributed to the fund for
the revival meetings aren't satisfied
with the results he -will personally pay
back their contributions, and—
That those who didn't contribute
anything to the meetings are butting
Into what doesn't concern them when
they criticise.
His card follows:
It has been my purpose, at the proper
time, to make a public statement about
the unfortunate atate Into which the
community has been precipitated be
cause of criticism upon the Torrey-
Alexander mission, alleged to -have
been made -by the Baptist ministers'
conference, held some days since.
I am candid to say, when I read the
published report, I was shocked, as was
the entire community. Shocked, be
cause of the account given of the pro
ceedings of the conference and shocked
again, became of what seemed to be
the remarkable revulsion of opinion as
against what had been the strong posi
tion taksn-by the conference up to that
time.
It was Impossible for me to reconcile
these two positions—so absolutely con
flicting, and 1 was deeply distressed.
Soon after reaching my office last
Tuesday morning Dr. Millard called me
Over the 'phone to aay the published
report was erroneous.
In the forenoon of the same day Dr.
White called at my office to say the
same thing, and he showed me the
card to be signed by several members
of the conference, denying that the
public statement at all represented the
spirit or the sentiment of the meet
ing. Later. Dr. Ward called to con
firm this view. I have a letter from
Dr. Briggs, from which I quote:
"The meetings were productive of
greet, good. Dr. Torrey Is a man of
God. All Atlanta h under lasting ob-
llgatlons-to the Business Men’s Gospel
t/nlon for bringing these consecrated
witnesses to Atlanta."
Other members of the conference
have expressed themselves In the city
Dress through interviews and peraonal-
y signed cards.
Whols Matter Settled.
These facts coupled with the action
taken yesterday by the Baptist minis
ters, In conference assembled, plainly
and fully setting out their true posi
tion, should fully and satisfactorily
settle the whole matter In the minds of
all the people and bring us again to
dwell together, as Christians, In peace,
In harmony and In love.
It Is due, In this connection, that I
should now give even more fully the
poeltlon of the Baptist ministers’ con
ference upon the coming of Dr. Torrey
to Atlanta.
When the Business Men's Gospel
Union was considering the possibility
of securing Dr. Torrey’* services. Dr.
Broughton presented the matter be
fore the Baptist ministers' conference,
stating that the Gospel Union had
such purpose nnd such plan In vlaw.
The whole matter was freely discussed,
whereupon a resolution was adopted,
appointing a committee from the Bap
tist ministers' conference to co-operate
with the Bualneaa Men's Gospel Union
to the end named.
Dr. Millard was made chairman of
this committee. He at once communi
cated with me, announcing that his
committee was ready to render the
Gospel Union all the help necessary to
secure the Torrey-Alexander mission
for Atlanta. With thla committee. It
la due to aay, Dr. Broughton actively
co-operated and without the help given
by Dr. Broughton and the committee
from the Baptist ministers' conference
It Is more than likely Dr. Torrey could
not have been Induced to hold his mis
sion here.
Baptists Took Initiative.
It must now be quite apparent to all
the people that the Baptist ministers
took the Initiative, through Dr. Brough
ton, and the mlnlatera' committee. In
bringing Dr. Torrey to Atlanta.
Quite aa Important as this statement
Just made. It Is further due to say,
j when Dr. Hull, chairman of our ilevo
ll-.n.i! < -1-..r:,ntan.I I j rer.-nted the
I plans of the Gospel Union to the Evaii-
K'-ll, .i| M IniM.-iA--.,, latlnn. ( im
posed of the ministers of all evangeli
cal denominations In the city, looking
to our proposed Invitation to Dr. Tor
rey, and asking whether or not the os
soclatlon would Indorse our contem
plated aatlon, Dr. Cleveland, of the
Presbyterian church, opened tbe dis
cussion, favoring tbe Invitation. Dr.
White, of the Second Baptist church,
promptly Introduced the following res*
olutlon, heartily Indorsing the Invita
tion and agreeing .to co-operate, In
every possible way With the proposed
mission:
"Resolved, That the Evangelical
Ministers! Association heartily sympa
thizes with tho movement of tbs Busi
ness Men's Gospel Union to secure
the services ot Messrs. Torrey and
Alexander for evangelistic meetings In
this city during the month of May,
"That, as a conference, we agree,
each pastor for himself, as far as pos
sible, to devote some portion of the
month of AprJI to special services for
the awakening and revival of Chris
tians and the salvation of unbelievers
In order that the best results rosy be
achieved by the Torrey-Alexander
meeting."
Surely all these things, now taken
jointly, and In the beat of faith, are
more than sufficient to satisfy the peo
ple that the Baptist. ministers of the
city have not been properly snd fully
understood, and, therefore, the criti
cisms upon them have been wholly un
due. We should all hasten most lov
Ingly and gladly to repair whatever In
Jury may have been done to the cause
of Christ and to ministers who have
been so unduly censured.
Can we not now all com* together
In the name of the Most High God to
do His service In the "awakening and
reviving of Christians and the salva
tion of unbelievers. In order that the
best results may be achieved by the
Torrey-Alexander mission?”
The Governor Waxes Warm.
Before this end can be fully reached,
It Is necessary to notice at least one
criticism from among' the many that
have been made directly upon the
Plans of the Business Men's Gospel
Union. This one has come to us from
all kinds and classes of men, ministers,
laymen and unbelievers. It began
when Dr. Chapman was with us. It
has continued, unabated, since that
day. It developed In greater force
when Dr. Torrey came. It has, finally,
been hurled at us from the pulpit os
the statement of Rev. W. T. Hunnlcutt
of thla city. He Is reported as saying:
"The Torrey-Alexander revival serv
ices held here recently received 15,000
worth of advertising, and If It had nqt
been for this they would have failed.”
Mr. Hunnlcutt ha* Just Informed me
that he was reported correctly In this
statement. As to the accuracy ot the
statement I have nothing to say, but
leaf* to him for further Investigation.
This criticism has came to us in
many forms. If Mr. Hunnlcutt con
tributed any money to the expenses of
the mission snd is now not satisfied
with the results and will so inform me,
I will gladly return to him the amount.
1 desire to make this statement even
broader. If there it any man in At
lanta or elsewhere who put a dollar In-,
to tho Chapman meetings or into the
Torrey Mission and now believes the
investment did not pay, and will so In
form me, he shell have his money back
the instant he reports.
If Mr. Hunnlcutt or snv of the scores
of people who art talking like Mr.
Hunnioutt did not contribute a dollar
to th* expanses of the Chapman meet
ly, it it none of the!.
meetings cost and does not lie inthslr
mouths to ruth into the press and cer
tainly not Into the-pulpita nor in th*
corridors of hotels to censure the Gos
pel Union for being willing to put up
$5,000 or any other amount, to bs used
legitimately, in the salvation of men
and women from the tortures of th*
damned. W* have not yet learned th*
money value of a human soul.
Price to be Paid For a Soul.
God pity the time* upon which we
have fallen If we are to be held In
check and first determine the price to
be paid for a soul.
Now, brethren, let this matter be set
tled forever and aye. If any person
does not want to take part with us,
we will certainly not object, but we
will be absolutely unmoved by the
opinions of men who set a money value
on a human soul.
Let us be done with such things, and
"let us follow after things which make
for peace nnd things whereby we may
edify one another.”
BAPTIST MINISTERS
ARE WITH DR.TORRET
RESOLUTIONS TO THAT EFFECT
ARE ANNOUNCED ON
TUE8DAY.
At the meeting of thd Baptist Min
Istera’ conference, held Mranlav morn
lng. at which the differences of certain
members of that body and E. Y.
Clarke, Jr., a Constitution reporter,
were discussed, the following resolu
tlons were passed:
“In view of the accounts of the pro
ceedlng* of the last session ot this con
ference, publtshed-ln The Atlanta Con
■tltutlon of June TO, be It ■
“Resolved 1. That the* utterances
therein reported as having been made
by one or two of the member* of this
conference were the expressions of their
own tnvldldual opinion, and this con
ference In no way put itself upon rec
ord as agreeing or disagreeing with
laid brethren.
"Resolved 2. That there was no sug
gestion Intended, or step taken toward
• - ms tin- i ('turn cf 1 1 (’- Ten ..y M
the city of Atlanta, nnd no committee
11roposed or appointed for that purpose.
One member of this conference, In the
exercise of hls personal liberty, quietly
stated that If It W*t* left t.. him per
sonally, he would not Invite Dr. Torrey
to return next year. Some present ap
proved of thla sentiment, other* did
not. The brother referred to. however.
In the Army of Northern Virginia, and
uni. »no snisw reicr.cu to uv-..—, In the Carolines as aid to Dr. Cheat-
ndded thnt he believed In the gospel- ham. Only a few weekB ago, Dr. Burt
which Dr. Torrey preached.
"Resolved J. That the statement
mnde by one of the brethren relative to
‘tainted money" was not used by him
wUh reference to the Torrey-Alexander
mission, but .vis suggested as an ob
jection that was liable to be urged by
objectors against all union evangelistic
efforts a* such.
Resolved 4. That 0* this conference
took no official action upon th* subject
of the Torrey-Alexander meeting last
Monday. It here and now officially
states that It Is of the opinion that
said meetings were a great blessing to
the city of Atlanta; that it regards
Messrs. Torrey and Alexander as men
of God, powerful In the Scriptures, and
greatly used of the Holy Spirit, and
that It has taken no action contrary to
the resolutions unanimously adopted
May 21, which are hereto appended.
"They are aa follows:
"Resolved by the Baptist ministers'
conference of Atlanta, That they thank
God for sending Messrs. Torrey and
Alexander to tbe city of Atlanta, and
for the great blessing that has already
come to the people of our city through
their labors; and, second, that we as
sure these brethren, and the Business
Men's Gospel Union, of our heartiest
sympathy and pledge our earnest co
operation.' ’•
In a statement made Monday night,
Mr. Clarke corrected certain parts of
hls story on the meeting of the Baptist
ministers. He said:
"During the executive session It de
veloped that there were four matters of
fact-In regard to the meeting concern
ing which I had been mistaken and
which I cheerfully desire to correct.
“No motion was passed to Indorse
Dr. Landrum's speech; no motion was
made or passed to oppose Dr. Torrey’*
return; the reference to, the taint of
money greed was not used by Dr. White
with reference to the Torrey meeting,
but with reference to the general de
fect of great union evangelistic meet
ings. Dr. White (lid not say that the
Methodists would Join tho Baptists In
opposing Dr. Torrey’s return, but re
ferred to the fact that he believed they
would co-operate In a general evangel
istic movement along the lines he had
outlined."
When asked If the matter had been
closed. Dr. John E. White said:
"The differences between the minis
ters' association and Mr. Clarke have
been settled. Mr. Clarke said volun
tarily that hs had made misstatements
In four particulars. With thla admit
ted. there Is nothing more to be said.”
