THE GEORGIAN COMES TO GEORGIA AS THE SUNSHINE "It Is Indeed a desirable thing to be well de» sccnded, but the glory belongs to our ancestors." —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.” HANDSOME 0HUR0H WAS DEDICATED. Special to Tbe Georgian.
