The S >uthern Baptist Conven
ti n, in Chattanooga, passed the
following resolution: “We an
m uuce it as the sense of this body
that no person should be retained
in tho fellowship of a Baptist
church who engages in the manu
facture or sale of alcoholic liquors,
ei‘ her at wholesale or retail, who
invests his money in the manufac
ture or sale of alcoholic liquors,
or who rents his property to be
used for distilleries, wholesale li
quor houses or saloon. Nor do we
• believe that our church should re
tain in its fellowship any members
who drink liquors as a beverage or
visit saloons or drinking places for
th' purpose of said indulgence.”
Be Ye Steadfast.
In looking over the political sit
uation as it exists in Georgia today . 1
there are a few considerations that ’
ought not to be lost eight of. In
coming to a conclusion as to one s
political duty men ought to take a
broad view of all questions that
affect tho public welfare. No one
issue now before the people is par
amount in importance to all others
and no one issue should be the
cause of a sacrifice of all others.
To put in force certain well defin
ed principles of public policy, p r
ty organization is absolutely essen
tial, and no one issue should be
permitted to endanger party suc
cess for by that means all legisla
te n along these lines may ’ o de
feated.
As to the present muddle, both
local and state, we have no sort of
doubt as to what is right and best
in the premises, and that is to
stand by the party that has proven
itself worthy of trust. “Be ye
steadfast in the faith.”
Under the Bullock regime, Geor
gia was in a deplorable condition.
Wasteful extravagance and negli
gence was common with her rulers.
Since the Democrats came into
power her progress has been stead
ily upward, until today, if our in
formation is correct, her credit
stands third in the list <1 forty-five
states. Tho Georgia Democrats
have pensioned the old veterans,
and the widows of tho dead soldiers
as liberally as tho circumstances
would allow. A splendid public
school system has been established
• at a cost of over a million and a
quarter dollars a year, which goes
' alike to tho benefit of tho white
‘ and colored children of tho state.
Georgia has the fairest and most
, effective law regulating railroad
freight and passenger traffic of any
.• state in the south, if not in tho
, union. Iler capitol was built for
less than the amount appropriated
therefor, a fact of exceedingly rare
occurrence. In short, her public
’ officials have, almost without ex
‘ ception, been upright and honora
ble gentlemen, who have adminis
tered the affairs of the state in
' such a wise, judicious and business
like manner that Georgia leads all
other southern states in enterprise
and progressiveness.
These good results have been at
tained under a Democratic admin
istration, yet there are people all
over the state today who are ready
and willing to sacrifice the party
if thereby it gives them oven a re
mote chance to accomplish some
pet measure, or gratify some per
sonal grudge. They seem ready
and willing to destroy at one blow,
i the party organization that has
brought to the state so much of
good, and so little that is of evil
report.
In trying to accomplish any
measure, is it not well to work
within clearly defined limits? Is
it wise or sale to cut loose from
old moorings? Is it not best to
stop and consider carefully all the
other interests that are involved?
Is prohibition the one, and the
only question that vitally concerns
the people? Is that the one mea
sure that will bring us peace, and
happiness, and prosperity, and
plenty of money, and better prices
and all the other things that make
people happy? Is that the only
thing to consider? Should party
ties be severed and party organiza
tion be disrupted for t his one cause
alone?
It would seem to be the wiser
course to submit the prohibition
and financial questions for settle
ment inside the party lines, and
let them be considered and decided
according to regular Democratic
usage. If a majority should de
clare in favor of free silver or pro
hibition, let that settle it. If eith
er of these elements win they wil l
find their late opponents will be
true to their party colors and will
tight the party battles as of yore.
As an illustration of the truth
of this statement, we merely call
attention to the fact that two
years ago, when W. H. Lumpkin, 1
a strong prohibitionist, was nomi
nated for the senate in Bartow 1
I
county, his own county, which is
strongly for prohibition, gave a 1
majority of nearly SOOagainst him
while the so called whisky counties '
of Floyd and Chattooga gave him I
a handsome majority and elected 1
him. It was well known that Mr. J
Lumpkin was a prohibitionist, but 1
this fact did not dampen the ardor 1
nor wea ken the party loyalty of J
the “whisky element” in Floyd
and Chattooga, and it can be truly •
said that to this active, working 1
element in the party, Mr. Lumpkin i
owed much of his political success.
As a matter of fact no political
party ever did, or ever will pro- ;
mulgate a platform that will meet ,
the wishes of everybody. From
the very nature of the case such a
thing is impossible, and it would ,
seem that the only wise course to
pursue would be to act conserva
tively on these matters and not
let any one question blind the
judgment as to all others. It is
best to stand by that party that
has been tried and not found want
ing. No one issue will justify the
disruption of the present Demo
cratic organization, f< r whatever
of good has come to Georgia in a
political sense has come through
the party now in power.
Be ye steadfast in the faith.
A Card.
In reply to Mr. Arrington’s arti
cle, and the certificate of Mr. A.
W. Fite, which appeared in the
last issue of the Trion Echo, I de- (
sire to say that I tendered Mr. Ar-,
ringtail the columns of the News
to make such reply as ho thought |
best, but for reasons unknown to
me lie declined the offer.
Mr. Arrington admits that his
vote was cast in favor of a nomi
nation for senator by the senator
ial convention. He says that it
was right and uses the argument
of one of tho Bartow delegates that
tho committee should not instruct
the convention. Mr. Harris’ reso
lution “to noqiinate a candidate”
was as much of an instruction as
was the amendment of Mr. Dean
“to ratify Chattooga’s choice.”
The former meant to take away
from Chattooga the right to nomi
nate, and place that right in tho
hands of tho convention, whiletho
amendment was seeking to hold
the convention down to tho time
honored usage and custom which
leaves the nominating power in the
hands of the county.
Os course it goes without saying
that Mr. S. E. Jones would have
supported his brother, Hon T. IL
Jones. Mr. Shropshire, in advis
ing with a few of his personal
friends, bad already s id that un
der tho circumstances ho thought
it his duty to support Mr. Jones
for judge. Ho had taken this po
sition weeks before Mr. S. E. Jones
had spoke of being a candidate,
and while he was yot county school
commissioner, and 1 had personal
knowledge of that fact. Now what
compromise was there to make be
tween them, and in what possible
sense could a district primary be
considered as a compromise? 1
understood Mr. Shropshire’s posi
tion, and tho rumor that I,•or any
of his friends favored a district
prim a-e with a view of utilizing
Mr. Fite’s strength in Bartow' is
absurd on the face of it, and so
far as I know' no one ever heard of
it until Mr. Fite’s visit here. Mr.
Shropshire’s friends never believed
and certainly never conceded that
Mr. Jones would defeat him in this
county and therefore it never oc
curred to them to submit the nom
ination to other than a primary
in this county. I want to add
that any report that I ever favored
a district primary for senator is!
absolutely false, and without any
foundation in fact, whatever.
The remainder of Mr. Arring
ton's card, together with and based
on Mr. Fite’s certificate, I answer
by saving that no such conversa
tion as Mr. Fite states passed be
tween us on the day mentioned, or
any other day. I hope Mr. Fite
has made only an honest mistake (
growing possibly out of what pass
ed between myself and one of his
friends previously in reference to ♦
settling the judgeship question by
district primary, after the manner
of settling the United States sena
torship question. But whether
honest or not Mr. Fite is mistaken,
for I state most positively that no
such conversation occurred.
Thus Mr. Arrington’s justifica
tion of his position, based on a
position I may have taken, falls
for two reasons: First, had I tak
en such position it would not make
his vote right. Second, I took no
such position.
Now in conclusion: I made no
attack on Mr. Arrington. What
was said was as much in the nature
of an expression of surprise at his
position, as of criticism. I had
no intention of wounding his feel
ings and regret it if Idid so, and I
am, sure I haven't an unkind
thought for what he has “writ
about me. J- M . Cain.
