President Cleveland said in his
message: .“It is a condition which
confronts us—not a theory.” The
condition he alluded to is that a
surplus of $15,424,603 was collect

in excess of the expenses of run

The McCoy
Thk Chattooga News says “Cal
vin Ton ng was allowed to testify,
but the court charged, in effect
that his evidence was not worthy of
credence, which amounted to the
same thing as not allowing him to
testafy.” The facts are these. Judge
Fain, in his charge to the jury, af
ter reading the decision of the Su
preme Court in the McCoy case as
to duress, said when asked by de
fendant’s counsel to charge on that
point,that if they believed that Cal
vin Young at the inquest was nojt
under duress and had committed
deliberate perjury, the jury were at
liberty to reject his testamony.
But they were to be the Judges of
that question. No one can say that
this is not sound law.—Walker
County Messenger.
The charge of Judge Fain, ac
cording to the opinion of compe
tent judges who heard it, was more
favorable to the prisoner than the ev
idence justified. Counsel for the stale
had to ask him to charge points of
law favorable to the prosecution
two or three times with the result
that at last it was only partial
ly done. Counsel for the State gave
up the case after hearing the charge,
it was so palpably in favor of the
defence that they were convinced,
before the jury went out, that the
verdict would be an acquital.
Captain Kellett had a U. S. war
rant for Calvin Young,who sent word
ho would be at his home on Look
out mountain on the sth of Decem
ber, 1885, and that if Capt. Kellett
would come on that day he would
submit to arrest. It was known
that Capt. Kellett would be on the
mountain on that day. McCoy,
who lived near Young’s, knew it.
McCoy was a moonshiner, and Kel
lett was a revenue officer. Tho
above facts show two strong mo
tives for murder: revenge and self
interest and preservation. That
there was a conspiracy entered into
to decoy Captain Kellett on the
mountain and murder him there
can be no doubt. Kellett was not
killed in a fight; he was shot in the
back; way laid, and deliberately
murdered by a man, or men, who
had posted themselves beside the
road and waited for him. It was
planned. Just who laid the plans
and just how many aided in carry
ing them out is uncertain, but in the
light of facts known to be facts it
is almost certain that McCoy was
one and that he is the murderer.
Believing this we are forced to the
conclusion, despite the “sound law”
of Judge Fain’s charge, that the
opinion we have heard expressed by
parties who had every facility for
arriving at. the truth that the trial
was a farce is, unhappily, too true.
Sho w Your Hand, G-antlemen.
It is stated that there are sever
al prominent men, among others,
Judge Joel Branham, of Rome, and
Col. Shumate, of Dalton, who show
a disposition to be willing to serve
their fellow countrymen in congress
from this district for the next two
years, and that they are now en
gaged in feeling the public pulie in
that connection. Both these gen
tlemen, so far as is known, are qual
ified to serve as congressman, but
the people will want to know, be
fore considering their claims, how
they stand on the tariff question.
Mr. Cleveland will be elected pres
ident again this year on a platform
as set forth in his message declar
ing for a reduction of the tariff. It
is of vital importance that men
should be sent to congress who are
in favor of carrying out the views
President Cleveland represents. Mr.
Clements is with President Cleve
land on this issue, and before sub
stituting a new and untried man
for our present efficient con
gressman the people will want to
know how the substitute stands on
the tariff question. If the new as
pirants are all right on this issue
then their other claims can and will
be considered.
Where the Money Goes.
The wealth per capita in nine
States, to wit: Connecticut, Maine,
Massachusetts, New Hampshire,
New Jersey, New York, Pennsylva
nia, Rhode Island and Vermont is
$1,220. A large number of the
manufactories of the United States
are located in the above nine states
and these manufactories are protec
ted. Their owners have become
rich by reason of tho unjust dis
crimination in their favor shown by
the present tariff laws.
The wealth per capita in the fol
lowing pine States, to wit: Ala
bama, Arkansas, Georgia, North
Carolina, Virginia, Nebraska
Michigan, Minnesota, and Kansas
is $512. These are agricultural
states, and the people living in
them have to buy manufactured
goods on which there is a tariff of
40 pr cent. „ This 40 pr cent, keeps
them poor and makes the people
who live in the first named states
rich. For instance: when a farmer
living in Georgia buys SIOO worth
of the necessaries of life 40 pr cent,
of the money goes into the pocket
of the manufacturer in Rhode Is
land who does not give but S6O
worth of goods for the whole SIOO.
This is what protection does. It
makes the manufacturer rich at
the expense of the farmer.
Will There Be War?
The war cloud in central Europe
still grows darker from day to day.
The nations over which it hovers,
Austria, Germany and Russia, pro
test that the threatening movements
of their armies are made only to
secure peace, but the distrust these
powers have of each other renders
peace uncertain. Tho greatest
hope that there will be peace is the
fact that each power dreads to
strike the first blow. The rulers
know that the war, once commenced,
would in all probability spread all
oygs-Europe, and involve nearly
nation. Now it is Austria
against Russia, and in case of war
Germany would aid Austria. This
would naturally lead France to ally
herself with Russia as against her
inveterate enemy, Germany, and in
that event Italy and Turkey would
aid the Austrians and Germans. It
would be a collossal contest; Rus
sia, the giant of the North, and
France against combined Europe.
It is well that there is no Fred
erick the Great, no Napoleon, no
Charles XII on any of the thrones
concerned. If there was he would
seize the advantage by striking the
first blow. But where such men
would rush into war the present
rulers will drift into it. In Russia,
Germany, Austria, France,England,
Turkey and Italy there are eleven
millions of armed men.
In case of war Austrian Gallacia,
from present appearances, would be
the scene of the first bloodshed. It
is in that direction that Russian
operations have excited most ap
prehension, and so alarmed the
Austrians that they have urged
their Emperor to send an ultimatum
to Russia forthwith. Should Aus
tria succeed in beating back the
Russians at this point and the
struggle close to the advantage of
the former, the trouble would ex
tend no further. On the other hand
should the Russians receive no se
rious check in their advance south
ward, or should they defeat the
Austrians in a great pitched battle,
then Austria would call on Germa
ny to fulfill the conditions
of the new triple alliance.
It is a long line, iu that event, which
Russia would have to protect, ex
tending from the Baltic to Gallacia,
and a German army would hardly
fail to make an impression on it.
If Russia were thus pushed, she
would call upon France, and the
secret understanding said to exist
between these two powers would
then be revealed. If France attack
ed Germany, Austria and Germa
ny would then have a right to call
upon Italy. Italy's appearance in
the field would lay her coasts and
commerce bare to the attacks of
the French fleets, whereupon Eng
land would be asked to take a
hand and Turkey' could hardly
keep from being involved. The
year just beginning may witness a
change in the map of Europe.
Bacon's Letter.
A bevy of protectionists, headed
by Howell, of the Constitution, re
cently addressed a letter to A. O.
Bacon asking him to express his
views in regard to the present rev
enue system. Bacon says the en
tire revenue system ought to be
abolished, and he takes up five col
umns of the Constitution in argu
ment in support of his views.
There is no doubt but that the
revenue system, as it exists now, is
an evil, and that it should be abol
ished as soon as practicable. Bit
the first thing is to reduce the tar
iff. Cleveland has placed the Dem
ocratic party squarely on this issue,
and by it he and the party of which
he is the leader must stand or fall.
It is no time for side issues, such
as abolishing the internal revenue
system, to be sprung, and for the
Constitution, Bacon, and the small
fraction of the Democratic party
which they represent to attempt to
do so is only to throw impediments
in the way of the success of De
mocracy and honest government.
Take the tax off the necessaries of
life. That is the issue, as presented
by the Democratic party. The Re
publican policy, as presented and
advocated by Blaine, is in accord
with Bacon’s views. Blaine is in
favor of abolishing the revenue
system, and the party to which he
belongs endorses him and his
views. As between Cleveland and
Blaine Bacon is with Blaine.

An attorney living in Rome by
the name of Scab Wright is engaged
in looking up clients in this county. |
He offers his services, for a cash
consideration, to those who need an
attorney in enjoining work on the
railroad. Now, leaving out the
question as to whether it is right or
not for a-corporation to build a road
where it pleases through a man’s
farm whether he is willing or not,
those who kick against the road will
find by the time they bare paid Mr.
Wright’s fees, cost, ect., that they
would have been better off had they
given the right of way. When a
man's head is in the lion’s mouth it
is not a good time to twist the lion’s
tail. The road is coming, and the
men who are constructing it will
build it where they please. Our
law makers,looking to the interest
of communities in preference to
that of individuals, gives them
this light. Besides the corporation
does not foot the bills for the right
of way; the citizens of this county
will have to do this, and those who
insist on being paid for right of
way are throwing the burden of
paying for it on the shoulders of
their neighbors, and not pn the cor
poration. If any one will think
about it seriously we believe they
will come to tho conclusion that
the road will confer more benefits
than, in any event, it will work
hardships. But be this as it may
we claim the credit for having giv
en Mr. Wright a free advertisement.

Mr. Spurgeon and the Baptist
Union.
Those who have rend “Our Eng
lish Letters,” relating to the New
and Old Theology, by Wra. Norton,
D. D., in the Baptist Reflector, or
Mr. Spurgeon’s “Down Grade” ar
ticles in “Sword and Trowcil,” were
certainly not surprised when Mr.
Spurgeon withdrew from the so
called Baptist Union, which was
merely a missionary organization.
Mr. Norton says: “Some of the
members of this Union have been
for some time advocating the ‘New
Theology;’ teaching for doctrine
commandments of man; denying
that Christ bore on the Cross
the penalty due to guilty man
j denying that ‘Christ is the end of
the law for righteousness,’ and that
sinners are ‘made the righteousness
of God in Him.’” All this is in
direct opposition to the teachings
of God’s word, as understood by
true Baptists; therefore Mr. Spur
geon says in his third article : “We
cannot be expected to meet in any
Union which comprehends those
whose teaching is, upon fundamen
tal points, exactly the reverse of
that which we hold dear.”
There are many things upon
which a compromise is possible, but
there are others in which it would
be an act of treason to pretend to
fellowship. “With deep regret we
abstain from assembling with those
whom we dearly love, since it would
involve us in a confederacy with
those with whom wo can have no
communion in the Lord.” The Cen
tral Baptist says: “Mr. Spurgeon’s
withdrawal was due to his firm, un
flinching adherence to Baptist ten
ets. He not only most emphati
cally protested against the New
Theology teachings, but at a meet
ing of the Union about twelve
months ago, Unitarian ministers
were officially recognized by the
body. Against this he also pro
tested. At the recent meeting of
the Union this section in regard to
the Unitarian preachers was again
taken up, and Mr. Spurgeon with
drew. In the light of these state
ments every Baptist, every lover of
truth must commend the action of
Mr. Spurgeon. This evil leaven, the
New Theology, is working strife,
not only in the Baptist Union of
England, but also in the other de
nominations. The present chair
man of the “Congregational Union,”
Dr. Mackerral, with Parker, Ste
venson, and Rogers are advocating
this dangerous doctrine, together
with Fairbain'e and Scott—presi
dents of Congregational colleges.
lu America, as scientific Theol
ogy and Evolution, it has been
taught in some colleges.
The Central Baptist Association
of California withdrew fellowship
from the Ist Baptist church at San
Jose two or three years ago, be
cause of their adherence to the
teachings of their “advanced( ?)”
Pastor, N. F. Ravlin, the author
of “Progressive Thought on Great
Subjects,” a book in which, under
the plea of liberalism and a desire
to unite the Christian world—on
scriptural doctrines are most elo
quently set forth.
When Ravlin, of California,
Greenbaugh and Gherr, of Eng
land, and all others who deny the
personality of the Holy Ghost, and
the vicarious document of Christ
and call the fall of man a fable,
though they may claim to be Bap
tist and “believe in and practice
immersion;” yet they are not in
unison with those ministers, who,
like Mr. Spurgeon, preach Baptist
doctrines plainly and fearlessly “as
they were once delivered to the
Saints;” and it is more than folly
to pretend to a union, or fellowship
which exist only in name.
Spurgeon truly says: “Manifest
unity of all those who are one in
Christ can only come byway of
spiritual life, clearer light upon
the one eternal truth, and a closer
cleaving in all things to Him who
is the Head, even Christ Jesus.”
Baptism is only one thing—a
command of our Savior—therefore
important; yet a “closer cleaving”
in this command alone, will not
insure manifest unity among those
whom He has bought with His own
precious blood, and to whom He
has said: “If you love me ye will
keep my commandments.” Mr.
Spurgeon rightly has it—“A closer
cleaving in ail things to Him who
is The Head, even Christ Jesus.”
This is not narrow sectarianism
but loyalty to God.
