The General Assembly.
The members of the general assembly are arriving
on avery train. On Wednesday the house and aenate
will be called to order hy their respective officers and
will eettlo down to business for the summer.
Death has made but tfv Invasions In the ranks of
the present body, and the old familiar faces are with
us once again.
For the remainder of the summer, speaking In gen'
oral terms, tbs law making body of the state will bo
with u* and Vlll concentrate its attention od a num
ber of measures of great Importance.,
There was a great deal of unfinished business at
the adjournment of the legislature lait summer, and
much of this constated of measures which demaod
prompt action.
Among these are the various bills providing for puro
alectlons. 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 already,
but the Importance of It cannot be exaggerated- Tho
people of the state are determined that tho practlco
of Illegal voting, either In primary or rogular election*,
•halt cease, and they nro heartily In favor of tho most
rigorous provisions looking to that end.
The appropriation for the Jamestown Exposition
Is also favored by tho state at large. This will be one
of the moat Important Industrial exhibits ever seen In
tho South, and It would be little short of a misfortune
If tho great Empire Stato of the South were not repre
sented there next year when the gates ore thrown open
to the world. We do not anticipate that thore will be
•ny serious opposition to the appropriation, and It should
be passed at the earliest possible moment In order that
Qeorgla's exhibit may be placed to tho moat advantage.
The bill by Mr. Wright, of Floyd, aimed at the lobby
ists. providing that "leglslatlvo counsel or agents" shall
register with the clerk of tho houso, should becomo a
Itw. it Is a long step toward tho regulation of lobbying
and the elimination of whatever Improper methods may
obtain In tho practice.
The agitation In favor of pure food legislation has
stirred the whole country and gives a timely and em
phatic significance to tho bill prohibiting the adultera
tion of food In the state of Georgia. This measure, also,
was Introduced by Mr. Wright, of Floyd, and will meet
with very general support.
One of the most Important of all the measure! before
the houso Is tho bill providing that all railroads operating
In this state shall be Incorporated undor the general
laws of this state. The anomatly of having to deal with
great railroad systems which have no corporate status
under tho laws of the state I* an oversight which should
not be tolerated longer. The dlcusslon last year revealed
the fact that while there wae some opposition to [the
MR, the people themeelvei were heertlly In favor of lt,-
and it should be among the very first measures.to 'go
upon the etatute book*.
This, however, le hardly secondary In importance 1
to the bill of Mr. Alexander, proving that the state road
should be extended to the see. The time le rapidly ap
proaching when the present lease of the state road inuel
expire. Something must be done to provide for the
future, and there le k strong end earnest sentiment In
favor of Mr. Alexander's plan. It will oome In for a
goodly amount of ‘discussion during the present eeselon,
and it le generally agreed that It le one of the moat vital
questions before the people of the state.
These are. In fact, but a few of the most Impor
tant measures before the legislature at this time. The
general assembly Is composed of patriotic and Intelli
gent men, second to none who have ever met here, and
the people expect a great deal from them. The pre
liminary work Incident to the reaioembllng will be over
in a day or so, and then tbe members will eome down
to hard work for the next fifty days.
We are confident that they will give a good account
of themselves.
fives Instead of between horaes and men on the one
hand and Infuriated bulls on the other. There Is even
a certain amount of personal risk In pulling off one of
these collisions, for the man who pulls the lever has to
Jump while tbe 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 ns exciting ns to see him gored
to death. Still there would not bo so much of butchery
to make a Spanish holiday and we think, on the wholo,
the morals of the spectators would not be quite so much
depraved.
The forthcoming event will be watched with great
Interest and we heartily .recommend It to the young king
of Spain and the rulers of the Spanish American repub
lics cf high and low degroe.
EX-GOVERNOR NOR THEN
MAKES HOT STATEMENT
A Substitute for Bull Fights.
Arrangements ara being made for a unique sensation
by way of celebrating the Fourth of July up In tbe etate
of New Jersey. An enterprising railroad man, who h«a
always bad a morbid love of railroad collisions, baa de
rided to pull off one of these frightful Impacts as a spec
tacle and la selling Uckets for the performance.
It will be somewhat expensive, to be aura. The two
glaat engine* wbigb will be used for tbe heed-on collision
have been purchased at a coat of 125,000, for while they
are somewhat old they are by no means out of comrals-
rion. and are worth something more then they would
fetch a* old Iron.
He baa laid a track and engaged bla engineers—
' joung dare-devils." he advertises them to be—end will
bare everything In readlnee* when the glorious Fourth
arrives.
Railroad men throughout that pert of the country
are said to be very much Interested, as well as the public
in general, so tn spite of the enormous sum which be Is
upending the Impresario will no doubt make quite a neat
sum.
This Is not the first time that such a stunt baa been
pulled off, to be sure. But heretofore. It Is contended, the
engines have been so old end feeble that tbe collision
wax little better than a farce. This time It will be tbe
real thing, and tbe celebration of the Fourth of July up
that way will be a notable event.
'res WtsuFJt oeeura to ut that something of this kind
might be Introduced In Spain end In Spanish American
countries as a substitute for the bull fight, which Is com
ing In for so much of the reprobation of mankind. That
bell fight Is brutal and brutalizing there can be no
4oubt. If the public must bare excitement why not glre
It to them In the form of a combat between two locomo-
A Text from the Lunch Counter.
At one of Atlanta's leading restaurant* on Monday,
fifty men were gathered around a circular table at the
hour of noon.
A gentleman of observant mind, having finished bis
own dinner, quietly strolled around tbe circle to see
what bis neighbors were eating. Only one man out of
the fifty bad upon hla plate a pioce of roast beef or any
Imported meat. Tbe real were confining themselves en
tirely to vegetables, soups, fish and chicken.
We learn that on yesterday the Cudahy* shut down
a (600,000 meat plant In Louisville, Ky.
So It goes. The pooplo are swift In these newspapor
days to know their enemies and to know their dangers,
and swift to rebuke Iniquity when It la made clear.
"Honesty fa the beat policy." Old as the copy booke rune
the proverb, and the deslro to accumulate frequently
reaches tho results of tho dog with the bone, who snap
ping at the bono In tbe water lost the bone in his mouth.
We have no doubt but that tbe meat monsters of
this generation have lost more In a slnglo season by tbo
exposure of their horrible and cruel dishonesty than
they have gained by the practice of their Infamies for
the last three years.
The result no man can know. It la perhaps true
that In this generation at leaat there will not be as much
meat oaten as In tbe decade which has gone before. It
will take tbo mass of people,* long time-to get over the
conception of poisoned meat or to whet their appetites
with the recollection of the monstrous Iniquity and un-
cleanness of the great firm* that have been accustomed
to supply the tables of the people with this element of
food.
It will be curious to watch tbe result of a diminished
meat consumption upon the health and Spirit of this peo-
plo. Japan has recently enlightened the world uiran the
capacity for work and endurance which can he built out
of a fish and vegetable diet, and It may be possible that
the object lesson of Japan, followsd so soon by the mon
strous tabject lesson of the meat villains, Is designed by
destiny to change In part the diet, and perhapa the health
and endurance of this great American generation. Who
can tell but that tble horrible debauchery of polsoneti
meat which has been going on longer thin any of us
can tell, may be In part tbe explanation of the germ dt*>
cases, the microbes of cold, cholsra and meningitis, and
the other multiplied diseases which have distinguished
this generation? And who can tell but that the large
Providence which moves tn the affairs of men may have
had a hand In all these exposures, so as to glvo a new
lease of life and health and strength to this chosen peo
ple, upon whose shoulders rests the hope of liberty and
progress of tbe world?
This Is rather a large editorial to grow out of a
lunch counter text, but taller oak* In times past have
grown from smaller acorns than this, and while It would
not be safe for any man to predict tbat the American
people are drifting Into a raco of vegetarians tn dlot. It
Is reasonably safe to predict and certainly pleasant to

Some Plain Talk
About Criticism
of Torrey.
Colonel Charles E. Harman haa this day paid his
assessment and formally announced for alderman for
the-Eighth ward of Atlanta.
It was our pleasure some months ago to comment
pleasantly upon the entrance of another gentleman Into
tbe race to represent this ward, and we cannot do less
than say that Mr. Harman's entrance add* 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 tbat there era few
more popular. Ills long connection with railroad af
fair*. his wide experience with men and with money,
and his high character for Intelligence and probity make
bla entrance Into local politics a theme of 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 tbat the Interests of the elty
will be essentially safe In bis able and experienced
hands.
To the Virginians of Atlanta.
Thera I* a case of charity which appeals particularly
to Virginians of Atlanta. It Involves a Virginia girl—a
tale of suffering, a drama of unselfish sacrifice, and a
tragedy which threatens to follow upon a tempted loyalty.
A paltry sum can straighten out a sorrowful tangle In a
young woman's life and set two young feet once more In
happy paths of usefulness sod right It Is only a few
hours work that will be needed, and the Virginians in
Georgia will fled the Georgian* In Georgia responsive tn
cooperation. But what Is done must be done Immedi
ately—before tomorrow's sunset
Let those who are Interested apply to Mrs. J. B.
Wiley, of the First Baptist church, or to ths head of Cir
cle No. X of the King’s Daughtsn.
The Russian Decay.
It Is a great pity that there was a Portsmouth Peace
Conference.
It U n pity that savage Russia la not now governed
by a wise Japanese mikado, instead of a weak, vacillat
ing, terromtrickan ctar.
A nation tbat toleratea massacres, a nation that
cannot restrain Its rabbled millions, should be under
suhJugaUon and a wise protectorate. Russia Is far
from being a clvtUied nation.
The recreant officials of the rotten government
look on while helpless men, weak women and Innocent
children are brutally slain.
The world stands aghast at tht talas of rapln* and
blood that tht cables bring from this wretched land.
A government that cannot protect Its children It
worse than no government. A nation tbat can. and
will not. enforce lewe of peece end order, le a cowardly,
barbarous nation, and It It shame and disgrace that the
world sits calmly by and permits the ho-rors to go on.
God doe* reign and the day must dawn when these
poor, harried Hebrews will not be driven from their
home*, when the cttlee end vlllagee of darkest Russia
will no longer be lair* of boosts, and shambles of grief,
sorrow and despair.
After a week of silence, during which
time the town has been agog, with
much talk about ths Torrsy-Aloxar.der
revival, former Governor William J.
Northern president of the Business
Men's Gospel Union and the leader In
the movement that brought Dr. Torrey
to Atlanta, has made his say.
Governor Xorthen waxes warm In his
statement. He says he hopes the con
troversy Is over. He also says that If
those who rontrllmted to ths fund tST
the revival meetings aren't mulshed
with the results ha will personally pay
back their contributions, and—
That those who didn't contribute
anything to tho meetings are butting
Into what dqesn't concern them when
thoy criticise.
His card follows:
It has been my purpose, at ths proper
time, to make a public statement about
tbs unfortunate state Into which the
community has been precipitated be
cause of criticism upon tho Torray-
Alexander mission, alleged to have
been mads by the Baptist ministers'
eonferencs, held some days elnde.
I am candid to say, when I read the
published report, I was shocked, as was
tbs entire community. Shocked, be
cause of the account given of the pro-
--M-,iing» r,t the conference and shocked
again, because of what seqmed to be
tho remarkable revulsion of opinion aa
against what had been ths strong posi
tion taken 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 m*
over the 'phone to say the published
report was erroneous.
In the forenoon of ths same day Dr.
White called at my office to say ths
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. Latef, Dr. Ward called to con
firm this view. I have a lettar from
Dr. Briggs, from which I quote:
'The meetlnge were productive of
irreet good. Dr. Torrey Is e men of
Hod. All Atlanta la under lasting ob
it tat Ions to the Business Men's Gospel
Union for bringing these consecrated
witnesses to Atlanta.”
Other members of the conference
have expressed themselves In the city
press through Interviews and personal
ly signed cards.
Whole Matter 8sttlsd.
These facts coupled with ths action
takon 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
position of the Baptist ministers' con
ference upon the coming of Dr. Torrey
to Atlanta.
When the Business Men's Gnnpel
Union wae considering the possibility
of securing Dr. Torrey's services, Dr.
Broughton presented the matter be
fore the Bepttet ministers' conference,
stating tbat the i; >spel I 'nl-m ha.I
such purpose and such plan In view.
Tho whole matter was freely dlecuseed,
whereupon a resolution was adopted,
appointing a committee fr-on the Bap
tist ministers’ i'"i.ference to co-operate
with the Business Men's Gospel Union
to the end named.
Dr. Millard wae made chairmen 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
■sours the Torrey-Alexander mission
for Atlanta. With this committee. It
Is due to say. Dr. Broughton actively
co-operated end without the help given
by. Dr. Broughton and tbo committee
from the Baptist ministers' conference
It la more than likely Dr. Torrey could
not have been Induced to hold hla mis
sion litre.
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 ministers’ committee, In
bringing Dr. Torrey to Atlanta.
Quite aa Important at this statement
Just made. It Is further due to say
when Dr. Hull, chairman of our devo
tional committee, and I presented the
plans of the Gospel Union to the Evan
grip at Ministers’ Association, o>m
posed of the ministers of all evangel!
cal denominations In the city, looking
to our proposed Invitation to Dr. Tor
rev, and asking whether or not the as
soclatlon would Indorse our contem
plated action. Dr. Cleveland, of the
Presbyterian church, opened the dis
cussion, favoring the Invitation. Dr
White, of the Second Baptist church,
promptly Introduced tho following res
olution. heartily Indorsing tho 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 the movement of the Busi
ness Men's Gospel Union to secure
the services Ilf Messrs. T.-rre) and
Alexander f--r evangelistic meetings In
thin city during tho month of May,
1904."
"That, as a conference, we agree,
ea< I. pastor f-,r himself, nr far a- p.,-,-
tdlde, to devote some portion "f 111,-
month of April to special services for
tin- awakening and revival of Chris-
tlass and tbe salvation of unbeliever*
In order- that the best results may be
achieved by the Torrey-Alexander
meeting.” i
Surely all these things, now taken
Jointly, and In the best of faith, are
more than sufficient to satisfy the peo
ple that the Baptist ministers of the
city have not been properly and fully
understood, and, therefore, the criti
cism* 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 end to ministers who have
been so unduly censured.
Can we not now all come together
In the name of the Most High God to
do His service In the “awakening and
reviving of Christians end 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 le necessary to notice at least one
criticism from among the many that
have been made directly upon the
plane of the Business Men's Gospel
Union. This one has corns to us from
all kinds and classea of men, minister*,
laymen and unbelievers. It began
when Dr. Chapman woe with us. It
ha* continued, unabated, since that
day. It developed In greater force
when Dr. Torrey came. It has, finally,
been hurled at u* from the pulpit os
the statement of Rev. W. T. Hunnlcutt
of this city. He is reported as saying:
"The Torrey-Alexander revival serv
ices held here recently received 85,000
worth of advertising, and If It had not
been for this they would have failed.”
Mr. Hunnlcutt has Just Informed me
that he was reported correctly In this
statement. As to the accuracy of the
etetement I have nothing to say, but
leave to him for further Investigation.
This criticism haa corns to us in
many forms. If Mr. Hunnlcutt con
tributed sny money to the expeneee of
the mission and it now not satisfisef
with tho results end will so inform me,
I will gladly return to him the amount.
I desire to meks this statsment even
broader. If there ie sny man in At
lanta or elsewhere who put a dollar in-,
to the Chapman msetings or into the
Torrey Mieeion and now believes the
investment did not pay. and will qo in
form me, he shall have hie money back
the instant he reports.
If Mr. Hunnicutt or any of the scores
of people who are talking like Mr.
Hunnicutt did not contribute a dollar
to the expenses of the Chapman melt
ing* nor to tht expon.e. of the Torrey
Million, let me say, plainly, very plain
ly, it le none of their bueineiewhet those
meeting* cost end doee not lie in their
moutht to ruth into tho press end cer
tainly not into tho pulpite nor n the
corridors of hotel* to ceneure the Goe-
pel Union for being willing to put up
$5,000 or any other amount, to be uiod
legitimately, in the salvation of man
and woman from the torture* of the
damned. W* have not yat learned the
money value of a human soul.
Pries to be Paid For a Soul.
God pity tbe times upon which we
have fallen If we are to be held In
check end first determine the,price to
be paid for a soul.
Now, brethren, let this matter be set
tled forever end eye. If any person
docs not want to take pert 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 ooul.
Let ua be done with such things, end
'let ua follow after things which make
for peace and things whereby we may
edify one another.”
BAPTIST MINISTERS
ARE WITHDR .TORflEY
RESOLUTIONS TO THAT EFFECT
ARE ANNOUNCED ON
TUE8DAY.
At the meeting of the Baptist Min
isters' conference, held Monday morn
ing, at which the differences of certain
members of that body and E. T.
Clarke, Jr, a Constitution reporter,
were discussed, the following resolu
tions were passed:
In view of the accounts of the pro
ceedings of tbe last session of thla con
ference. published In The Atlanta Con
stitution of June 10, be It
"Resolved 1. That the utterances
therein reported as having been made
by one or two of the members of this
conference were the expressions of their
own lnvldldusl opinion, and this con
ference In no way put Itself upon rec
ord ns agreeing or disagreeing with
said brethren.
Resolved 2. That there was no sug
gestion Intended, or step taken .toward
preventing the return of Dr. Torrey to
tho city of Atlanta, and no committee
proposed or appointed for that purpose.
One member of this conference, In the
exercise of his personal liberty, quietly
stated that If It we re left t-, him per
sonally, he would not Invite Dr. Torrey
to return next year. Some present ap
proved of thla sentiment, others did
not. The brother referred to, however,
added that he believed In the gospi'
which Dr. Torrey preached.
"Resolved 3. That the statement
made by one of the brethren relative to
‘tainted money" was not used by him
•with reference to tho Torrey-Alexander
mission, but was suggested as an ob
jection that was liable to be urged by
objectors against all union evangelistic
efforts as such. .
“Resolved 4. That as this conference
took no official action upon the subject
of the Torryy-Alexander meeting last
Monday, It here and now officially
states that It Is of the opinion that
•aid meetings were e great blessing to
the city of Atlanta: that It regards
Messnq Torrey and Alexander as men
of God, powerful In the Scriptures, and
greatly used of the Holy Spirit, nnd
that It has taken no action contrary to
the resolutions unanimously adopted
May 23, which ere hereto appended.
They ere os follows:
Resolved by the Baptist ministers'
conference of Atlanta, That they thank
God for sending Messrs. Torrey nnd
Alexander to the city of Atlanta, and
for th» 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
his story on the meeting of the Baptist
ministers. He said:
"During the executive session It de
veloped that there were four matter* 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's
return; the reference to the taint of
money greed eras 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 did not say that the
Methodist* would Join the 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 he had made misstatements
In four particulars. With'this admit
ted, there Is nothing more to be said."
