OP
T POLICE JOBS
“DU job la auinpUn' fierce,” la proba
bly the substance of the thoughts of
Clerk Henry M. Wood, of the county
board of commissioners. The aaplranta
to membership on the county police
force have him besieged.
The creation of the twenty-four new
positions last Saturday set, It seems,
the majority of the ctttaenshlp of the
county who are out of work, or making
less than $100 per month, to thinking
they would make the very kind of
goods necessary for enforcing the sub
urban law. Although the job paya but
$75 per month, and the men have to
furnish everything from hnndcuffa to
horse, several men who are making
well' above that monthly stipend ■■
endeavoring to convince the county
that It needs them on Its payroll.
Although one of the strict require
ments of a county policeman is sobrle-
\y, dosens of more or less frequent
ftprfera are telling what fine men they
are for the job. and go ahead und
subscribe their names to the statement
on the application blanks that they are
"Strictly sober and In no wise addicted
to the use of Intoxicants”
They have been crowding Mr. Wood’s
©ftlee all day, laboriously writing out
their applications, while they oonder
over the questions: ”Are you married
or single?” and ’’What was your last
Jsb?”
"Borne of them haven't seen their last
Job In so long that they wouldn’t know
It If they met It In the road,” said one
of the county officials. One applicant
couldn't write and some one had to
make out his blank for him.
The majority of the men, however,
look as If they,would make good offi
cers. The varied assortment Includes
city firemen, city policemen, street rail
way employees, farmers, constables,
some unclassified and others who could
almost be classed as ’’bums.”
E. V. Carter, chairman of the com
missioners' committee on roads and
bridges, said Wednesday afternoon that
he would call a meeting as soon as all
of the members of the committee were
In the city at the same time, to con
sider the location of the three stations
where the force will be located after
the new men are selected next Wed
nesday.

It Is genitralty conceded by those who
have kept up with the political situa
tion sine* the recent primary, that
Hon. Henry H. Cebentee, of Fulton,
and Hon. E. I,. Martin, of Bibb, trill
be the secretaries of the Democratic
convention In Maconi when It aesem.
blee next Tuesday.
That Mr. Cabanlse Is elated for oqe
of these pieces there cen be no doubt,
for Hon. Hoke Bmlth’e official organ hat
stated that he “will be put forward for
one at the eecretaryshlpe of the State
Democratic convention that It to meet
In Macon, September 4."
The suggestion of these two nunti
for eecretariee of that convention hae
brought on more tslk, to the effect that
may mean that these gentlemen may
respectively oppose Hon. Charley
Northen for secretary of the senate,
and Hon. John T. Bolfeulllet for clerk
' the houae.
A close friend of Mr. Cabanlse said
Wednesday that Mr. Cabanlss would
offer for secretary of the convention,
but would not run for secretary of the
eenate.
In naming these men as secretaries
that convention, an unbroken prece
dent for over a quarter of a century
will be set aside. Ever since Bill Har
ris. of Worth, and Mark Hardin, of
Bartow, became secretary of the sen
ate and clerk of the home, respective
ly, It has been the custom for these of-
fleers to act an secretaries of the
Democratic convention.
Should these gentlemen contest with
Messrs. Northen and Bolfeulllet, there
would be considerable conjecture as to
the final outcome. The latter have
the bulge, so tn speak, as they have
been campaigning for several months,
and If the former should win out, It
would be due almost entirely tn the
moral effect of the overwhelming Smith
victory.
Measrs. Northen and Bolfeulllet. It Is
said, are not losing any sleep over this
anticipated opposition, ns both of these
gentlemen, so It was stated at the cap-
Itot Wednesday, claim that they have
already pledged to them more than
enough votes to Insure thetr re-election.
One of the real surprises of the cam
paign, however, la the overriding of
the unbroken precedent of the past for
the clerk of the house nnd secretary
the senate tn serve ns ee«w*rariea
the state Demoeratlb convention.

ANGRY DEPOSITORS
FIGHT IN STREETS
By Private Lrawsd Wire.
Philadelphia, Aug. 29.—A crowd of
angry depositors, Including many wo
men, clashed with the police today In
front of the collapsed real estate trust
company bulldjng at Broad and Cheit-
nut streeta.
The line blocked the city's business
and the detail of police left on guard
over night was unable to cope with
them.
At first the women depositors gave
vent to their feelings by tears, but
finally the crowds pressed forward and
made threats against the officers.
With the greatest difficulty the police
kept them From storming the building.
The victims refused to disperse, how
ever, even when threatened with arrest,
and further outbreaks are expected.
“Kill the officers now and Investigate
later," Bhouted an excited man In the
crowd. He was promptly arrested.
Rssarvss Called Out
The bank building Is closed nnd
even the employees are IJarfed. Many
aged clergymen are among those who
suffered through (he (7,000,000 failure.
Police reserves were called out In
greater numbers and up to this time,
at least, have managed to prevent any
overt act. The temper of the crowd,
however, Is very ugly.
The crowd recognised F. Norden
Hippie, son of the dead president, who
works In the Real Estate Trust Com
pany at he was going out to lunch and
made a rush for him. It was with
great difficulty the police rescued him
from the angry crowd.
THE RELIGION OF MAN
VERSUS THAI OF GOD
By LANDON CARTER
(Copyright, 1908, l>y W. R. Hesrst.)
N this day of higher civilisation nnd
cultivation, when specialists In til
branches of life nfe so in rogne, per
haps, one aninild hardly bo surprised nt the
rivalry existing between the churches of
God, nnd although "su to4, h all must ack
nowledge that true religion Is not an nc
ceptftnee of any particular creed or a bur
den of commandments, still there ar«
many prominent ministers of today who
mny Imj Justly termed ’’religious special
Ists.”
Tf Indifference Is pnrnlysls of the soul. Is
not united energy proportionately powerful?
And nre not rivalry, Jealousy sud antag
onism always equally dangerous to co-work-
ers for the same goal?
In ordinary life, such conditions create
mutiny, which fact should make all nar—
and reflect upon the effects of rellgl
differences upon the sdul.
* 9 Is not dependent upon Intellect, ......
..ond of true religion Is uot that all
lie alike In mind, hut akin In soul.
Intellectual standards of goodness and
charity can only lie partially satisfactory;
for no hare theory ever reaches the human
comfort, hut to a certain extent It deadens
the Individuality which prompts nohllfU
for the orerpolffched man, when Incapah
of sinking Into certain vulgar crimes, also
becomes apathetic ond almost equally In
capable of rising to greatness, wall* self-
sacrifice and all forms of prlvatlou and suf
fering bring one more In touch with hu
manity, purity and beget active heroism
nnd nobleness.
The whole Illble Is a treatise on nnlver-
l love—that and that only as a means
salvation, "Judge not, that ye lie not
dged,” yet what more conducive to gen-
. .nl Judgment!, narrow, faahlonable ana
personal Interpretation! of love, charity and
religion?
Theoretical religious arguments are rarely
convincing to any classes, for the ttuly or
thodox Christiana realise that contentment
Is only fotiud in faith nnd the acceptance
of Hod’s gtcatness, whereaa certain forma
of Investigation can only produce unrest
sud disquiet; hut Just as certain argumenta
•re powerless to effect well founded, aim-
faith, so also are they equally unset
tling and confuslug to the weaker, super
stitious and Ignorant classes.
The mysterious nearness of flod, the con
tact with the Divine and the conaclouHiiesa
that we stand In special, Individual rela
tionship with Him, these facts are Iteyond
our fsthoudng. hut their simple acceptance
brings In ultra nonce and nobler Impulses
toward higher life.

Majority.
rtpwlnl to The Georgtat,.
Columbia, S. C., Aug. 29 Latest re.
turn* indicate an increase In the lead
of M. F. Ansel for governor and Lyon'i
majority for attorney general I, almost
clinched.
Edgefield, Tillman's home county,
gives the antl-dlspensary ticket an
overwhelming majority. Ansell and
Lyon, the two candidates fought by
Tillman, secured considerably more
than a majority.
Lyon's victory Is a great triumph.
In Newberry county he ran 4 to 1.
This Is the home of Hub Evans, former
chairman of the state board of control,
where there was nearly a riot when
Lyon spoke.
Ansel’s lead Is such that he will
have nearly a majority on the first
ballot, and cannot be stopped In a aec-
ond primary.
McCowan Is elected secretary of
state, anil Boyd adjutant general, over
all opposition. J. T. Johnston, of
Spartanburg; Wyatt Aiken, of Abbe-
vllle: J. O. Patterson, of Barnwell, and
D. E. Finley, of York, are returned to
congress over nil opposition, and the
other congressmen had no opposition.
The legislature Is tn doubt. The dis
pensary gained In some places and
antl-dlspensary In others. Local op
tion appyars to be the Idea. Tillman
was scratched In some counties.

true religion to vary so materially with

appreciated and understood only by the
accomplished ami so-4*alled elite, and to
become an unfathomable mystery to the less
well educated, thereby supplanting the
irength and beauty or primitive love and
hrlstlanlty?

Waiting Cow Savsd a Fins.
Councilman Holland occupied the
bench at Wednesday’s session of the
police court. His vocabulary seemed
limited to “fifteen dollars or thirty
days,” for that was the sentence nine-
tenths of the culprits received. The
morning docket contained only cases
of Idling and loitering, drunk and dis
orderly and the usual routine grind of
the police court. Mercy was shown In
one case, a white man from near De
catur, pleading that his cow was wait
ing to be milked and his pig squealing
to be fed. The man had only tnken on
too many Decatur street drinks and
was released with a warning to go
and sin no more.
Nsw Cotton Rats for Dublin.
The rate on cdtton from Dublin to
Savannah has been lowered by the.
railroad commission from S8 to 32
cents per 100 pounds. Complaint was
made by the citizens of Dublin, who
demonstrated that they were similarly
situated to Hawklnsvllle and Eastman,
which places enjoy the 32-ceht rat*.
In combatting it the railroads attempt
ed to show that Dublin is not a com
mon point, but the commission could
not see It from that viewpoint. The
S2-cent rate Is on uncompressed cot
ton, the carrier being given the privi
lege of compressing If It sees fit.
