TH£ BIBLE.
Tn the Editor of The Georgian:
Man came into the possession of
property (the earth) and into the pog-
pession of his physical and mental
powers to appropriate and use this
property to maintain his physical and
mental powers before he had any re
ligion. morals pr* beliefs In regard to
his mission for the future.
The race cannpt be any different in
its growth, physical and mental from
that «*f the child.
The Bible gives a history of a na
tion who are the leading or chosen
people of the book. It gives In its
general outline the growth of this na
tion from one Individual (Its Infancy)
to the millions which figure from first
to last in Its pages. Side by side It
shows up the physical and moral
growth of these people, and demon
strates that these people never sur
rendered up their property rights to
their God’s moral decrees, but made It
appear that God surrendered his moral
decrees and adopted their moral de
cret-s based upon their Ideas of prop
erty. ■ -
The book states that when these peo
ple were slaves, ^they prayed for and
God gave them their freedom, he prom-
!*pf!*them a country rich In every
thing. That they were to conquer It
an«i be masters of slaves, not only.of
tho conquered, but of the weaker metn-
bers of their own race as well.
The Rook also states* that when they
* t to the borders of the promised
lend, God gave them ten laws which
they must not violate.
These ten laws forbid every act
*bhh they committed In taking pos-
*CK.-b»n of Palestine.
When they got possession of Pales
tine they set up a code of laws dl-
muy the opposite to the ten, and
aigned God’s name to them. Under
the*** laws they traveled the broad and
klhb •! road of conquest to the days of
Thu- and the Homan legion*. Then
the!i laws and their gilded throne of
conquest, or violation of the ten com~
mandments, went to seed, and the
lb’.man legions’reaped the crop, 8e-

question esn be made a rellgldus ques

the religious cannot obliterate tlje his

are simple notices.
Thl* ls so, because to threaten pun

expected to do right, and herein is the
divine wisdom In the ten. The laws
followed by Israel, ended with- threat*
or punishment. This tn«de them In

Dr. J. W. Lee, of Trinity Church, In
Atlanta, proved that fear was because
of Ignorance. The arrallay to thla Is

ance. Any religion then which teaches

upon fear. There la no other way to

cred. The religion of fear I* based upon
Individual property rights, which in
cludes conquest and wars of such
kinds.
The ten wipe all slavery and prop
arty rights off the map, and proclaim
the time of univeraal freedom, but set
up no religion. , . .
This is to establish the fact that
when man gets to the point that he
will be free, he-will have ihe knowl
edge to know what It meant, and how
to enjoy It. Thus, as he Increase* In

A FABLE AND ITS MORAL.
To the Editor of The Georgian:
Tou have been *everely crlldted by
Mr. Hand* Jordan regarding the posi
tion taken In your editorial concerning
the legitimate -otton trad*. The po
sition taksn by you I* the on* Indorsed
by th* be*t .business men of tb* North
In our greet buslne** center*. . Mr. Jor
dan ha* been *t the head of the cotton
auocletton for *bout*one and one-half
yean, and probably has learned some
thing in regard to future contract deal
ing in that tlme, but th* business In-
tereat* I mention above have made a
doee study of these questions for gen
eration*. both In this country and
ab £Se*' Mr. Jordan suppose for one mo
ment that bis effort* or th* influence
of the cotton association c*n ever have
the effect of patting an end to thl*
great business?
Granting that there arc evil- In at
tendance up .'i the present sjacem, has
Mr. Jordan suggested a better one, or
a remedy?
What position would the fanner b*
in a* to marketing nis crop snouid ihe
present method of future quotation ser
vice be abolished? Has he any guar
antee that factors, spinners' agents,
etc., would quote him honest prices?
or would the Boutkbrg Cotton AMOtba
tlon keep him posted as to this?
Mr. Jordon's theory sounds very well
on paper, but It will not work In prac
tice. The South Is Just beginning to
take 6n the more progressive ideas of
Ihe large business world, and thereby
enjoy her share of the world's
Ity. It is too late now to go
ancient methods.
It does not seem to me that the
method is so much at faulL but th*
trouble lie* with tbo*e that are using,
it. Members of the cotton association
have been tjitight to buy futures,
through the excitement created In dis
tributing literature broadcast In their
mldr.t, claiming unreasonable prices for
cotton.
Mr. Jordan should use hi* energy In
a strenuous effort to purge the asso
ciation of these errors, and In tho
meantime it seema to me the old fable
a* recited by Aesop, with which we axe
all familiar, very aptly flts the caee:
"The oxen once on a time sought to
destroy the butchers, who practiced a
trade destructive to their race. They
assembled on a certnin day to carry
out their purpose, and sharpened their
horns for the contest. One of them,
an exceedingly old one (for many a
Held had he plowed), thus spok*:
'These butchers. It I* true, slaughter us,
but they do so with skilful hands, and
with no unnecessary pain. ■ If we get
rid of them we ahnll fall Into the
hands of unskilled operators, ond thus
suffer a double death, for you may J>o
assure? that, though all the butch
ers sh mid perlah, yet will men never
wont beol. Do not bo In a hurry to
change om evil for-another.'"
Tour* respectfully,

A LETTER FROM JUNIU3,
To th* Editor of The Georgian;
It seems thnt you were slightly awry
In your editorial concerning Governor
Cummins, August 2. There has never
been a man, perhnps, In eliher of the
old parties who has ecsn more clearly
the trend of corporate power to 'oe
destruction of Democracy a* conceived
by our fathers and enunciated In the
Declaration of Independence than the
Hon. Albert b. Cummins. Ho brought
the railroads to a full stop In his state
with the euddennesa of a bumping post.
He was a candidate for the senate In
1599. The Tallroad*. having charge bf
Iowa politically then defeated him.
Knowing they could not use him; that
he was nn unswerving patriot, a me.n
unalterably fixed In his devotion to
In the Declaration of Independence, n
paper eschewed by the Republican par
ty long before Hell Roaring Jake Smith
properijr lir-l*ini', .1 I: for the phrt* --
"A damned incendiary dorumehl, not
fit to be read."
You will remember, possibly, that
Senator Spooner’s opinion, expressed on
stump after stump, In defens* of hi*
party's conduct, nus tjie same, stated
fee* profanely. If anything could b«
more or less profane than another that
danod to touch those altered truth* of
mnn's eternal rights with thought or
jvnrd or hnrnl unsnnetlfied by love. Thl*
It I* and more of (he same kind that
made Jordan n hard ro*<l for Mr, Cum
min* to travel for a w hile. Rut that la
over now. The battle wns fought notne
years ago, th* victory won by the peo-
>le for ihe people, and today ho Is

BEER AS A TEMPERANCE DRINK.
To the Editor of The Oeorglan:
In one of tlio Atlanta dallies, under
dnto of the lith Insl., there appeared a
five-column h»lf-pngc advertisement of
a brewing establishment. On the right
side of the ad n drummer stands w llh
his grip nnd bending over clasp* the
linnet of an old man. Over the young
man's back appears the following
words: ‘(Congratulation* arc In order.
Between the two men appear the fol
lowing words: “Always welcome." This
should call forth n storjn of Indigna
tion from the mountains to the Sea
shore among temperance people, both
against the brewer* and a paper thnt
would print nnd send oat such rot to
the rlslmt generation. To advertise it
all I* bail enough, hdt wherj a combi-
nation Is formed to Justify and dignify
It bv snylng It I* a temperance drink
Is rubbing It In loo deep. It Is the
nearest nktn to "Demetrius, the silver
smith” (Act* 19:24 to 19 verses), of
anything that I have seen In the twen
tieth century. Kor n number of year*
our church, the Mcthodtet, haa talked
about getting up a daily, a paper freo
from advertising uhlaky and other Ilka
rot, and not to bt run on the Sabbath
day. This we have in The Georgian,
and I commend It to the people of
Georgia. Jncloted ploate find 15.00 for

To th* Editor of Th* Georgian;
Now that the much-needed court of

the people to cast about for suitable
occupant* for (he new bench. I wish
to nuggest the name o'f a gentleman
who Is pre-eminently qualified for Ihe
position—Prank H. Miller, Esq, of the
county of Richmond. He ha* been n
lawyer since he attained hi* majority.
Ills practice on the civil side of courts
hns been, ond still Is, Inrge and Impor.
tant. He I* without fear nnd without
reproach. Learned In the law, he Is u
gentleman of broad culture nnd high
scholarship, lie 1ms made his own
bright, clenn record, but It will not t>«
amiss to state that he I* a son of the
Honorable Andrew J. Miller, who
passed Into the other life In 1155.
Andrew J. Miller represented Rich
mond county twenty consecutive years
In the senate and was two sessions
president of that body. - He au him
self an eminent lawyer. Ills son,
Prank H., suppressed. If he over chcr.
Ished any, political ambition. Ho hns
lived up to the Idea that the law la a
Jealous mistress.
Mr. Miller's Ilfo hns been active In
the public Interest along edueatlnnai
nnd similar lin^s. He Is a methodical
worker, so Ihet today, while pnet 50
years of age, he Is vury much younger
than hla birth record would seem to
Indicate.

To ihe Editor of Th# Georgian;
Plfiase allow me space In The Oeor-
1an lo reply very briefly to an article
y Bra J, K. Lovelace, which appeared
In The Oeorglan on the 14th on "Eter
nal Damnation.”
It la not my purpnn* to crtttals* th*
principle thought or Idea that he sought
10 establish, to-wit: The eternal tor-
merit or damnation, aa ha expressed It,
of the wicked Is untrue, for In that he
11 correct. He decs nit sr»m to recog.
■ the fart that the dot nine of tha
eternal torment of th* wicked Is un-
•rrlptiirnl, but he scorns to have ar
rived at tha conclusion from the stand
point of reason, while. In fact, It I* un
reasonable, God dishonoring, blasph*
mou* and a* unacrfpturai ** anything
could possibly b*.
The principle object that I have In
view In writing thie article I* to cor
rect the erroneous idea prevalent li
th* minds of nearly all professed Chris
thins that eternal damnation nm.
eternal punishment are synonymous
with eternal torment. Eternal damna
tlon and eternal punishment need no
neressarlty be eternal torment, but
eternal torment would be eternal
damnation or eternal punishment.
Bro. Lovelace uses an Improper term
to expres* eternal torment, When he
speaks of it ns eternal damnation, tor
while the Hcrlptures nowhere siieak of
nor teach the eternal torment of th«
wicked, they do moat a**ur*dly teach
the eternal damnation or eternal pun
ishment of the wicked. To explain:
Adam for his sin of disobedience was
condemned (damned—that t* what the
word condemned mean*) to death, and
nil of hi* posterity fell under the same
sentence of condemnation (damnation).
Rut this condemnation, nr damnation,
dial fell on Adam snd all his race I* not
tn everlasting condemnation, or dam
nation, neither la It nn everlasting
or eternal punishment, because God
has made n way of escape for Adam
and hla race from this condemnation,
Ihe result of hi* mtntttttttttI
Hence the Adamic condemnation, or
damnation, will end |n thn resurrec
tion. and consequently I* not an ever
lasting damnation nor an everlaatlng
punishment.
There are no conditions whatever to
a release from the Adamic damnation.
"Jesus Christ by the grace of God tast
ed death for every man," which Insures
III* resurrection of every one of Addin'*
roc* out of th* condemned, damned,
condition Into which they have fallen,
Bui If Ond had made no provision
r a release nt Adorn and his race
from th* Adamic dninnnthm It would
hnve been an eternal damnation, an
eternal death punishment, because It
would never end.
Our l«nrd nlso suffered the same
damnntlon thnt was inlllrtcd on Adam,
not by reason of transgression, but
willingly gad volununiv "Ha mods
HI* soul an offering for sin." Be pound
out His soul, even unto death, that
Justice might be sttleru-'l and Adam
and hi* race go free of the Adnrnlc
damnation. And since the glorious
morning "loi. li. m.inn-hunt
over death and out of the Ad.nolo
damnation He holds In Ills hands dm
key of death, and In do* lime III .>i -n
th* prison house* at death and ri-li-H*e
the captives.
But n release from the prison house
nf death, th* Adamic condcrunnd n,
damnation, doe* not Insure eternal Ji to
to any one; It only gives them nn
opportunity of escaping a second dam
nation, a second death, a death from
which there I* no resurrection nml to
