Editor John Cain, the Tall Syc

see me yesterday. Cain says that he
has never before witnessed such
er ops as are now waying over the
fertile acres of old Chattooga. The
corn crop is a delight to the soul
while tin* cotton is doing business
on the square, blooming and boil
ing along. Chattooga is a good big
militia district in “God's country"
anyhow.

Col. Wright had his hand full
of letters from would be editors
all over the state, asking for posi
tions on the Rome Tribune, and
was much annoyed—And it all
grew out of that “rumor” which I
published a few days ago—which,
among other things, shows that
the people read the papers. Per

he's a capital good fellow, and has
a host of friends who are for him

Sam Colfax of the Turkey Bend
Boomer is promising his subscribers
a ripping good paper after his new
press arrives Yes, Sam nor only needs
a new press, but a new head on bis
shoulders.
We dont know where or when
he learned the English language
but what he is got of it is peculiar
to himself. Such trifling things as
1 orthography, grammar, punctua
1 tion.etc ,dont worry Sam.
He’ll never have an income of
over $7 per week out of a news pa
per,but as that is $2 per week more
than he could earn at anything
else he d better stick.
The Turkey Bend people like
Sam because he got two eastern
men to invest $5 apiece in real es
tate and boom the town, and as

knows how to spell ‘cit‘*lhey have

The Little Valley Star reached
i us with a new herd last week. The
• one it h»s used for the past two
; years was cut off the end of a saw
’ log, while the nt wine his I. mu
carvedout of a plank.
It is an improvement, however,
■ and we are pleased to chronicle
, the fact.
When we were over at Little
Valley a few weeks ago, Mr. John
( eon, the editor and proprietor of
The Star, had just purchased an
acre of ground to establish a pri
vate graveyard, and he assured us
that he had at least six victims
marked down for slaughter.
On that same day, an hour after
we left, a man entered his office
with only a club for a weapon and
drove Mr. Johnson under the edi
r torial table and made him beg for
his life.
He may pick up, however, aud
I The Star may yet become the lead
. ing family paper of the world, as
he predicts. We shall at least say
I nothing to discourage him.
The Rocky River Journal of last
w'eek referred to us on its alleged
editorial page as a “viper,” “cow
ard,” “office seeker,” “villian”
and several other things. The
Journal is a four page weekly pa
per published by a man named
Otis.
As most <>f its issues have been
printed on a cheese press, with
molasses and lampblack as a sub
stitute for ink, we have never been
able to read except an occasions
, line here and there.
Some two years ago Mr. Otis
was driven out of New Mexico into
( Utah. They shot him out of Utah
| into Montana, and the Montana
, people kept him hanging at the
, end of a rope until he agreed to
leave for Arizona.
We had something to say about
these things a few weeks ago, not
knowing thut this Otis was the Otis
ref- rred ti and cf course he feels like
getting even. Well, we are not saying
tnytlung. Sons day we shall meet
Mr. Otis and take him by the ear and
d< m uid an apology, but there is no
hurry about it.

WHICH SHALL RULE IN THE COMING
CONFLICT AGAINST EVIL?
Prohibitionists are iu no wise]
pessimistic, for we believe there is
no power iu eiMth or hell—and
both are combined in this traffic —
that can prevent the ultimate
abolition of lhe saitain curie ttvd
the upward progress of the human
rac- 1 , but we believe at lhe same
time that this advancement may
come by the proper conduct of hu
man iiistrumentMiilie- through
the peaceable fruits of riuhtwou--
ness; otherwise it will' come
through Heaven’s inexorable law,
the wrath and wickedness of man
beinx made to praise Him Amer
ica's great poet utters this tiue
philosophy :
‘•But if man before his duty listless stands,
Era long the Great Avenger takes the work
from ont his hands.”
Recent church utterance against
the liquor traffic, and against the
complicity of license-party voters
in its sin and crime, tire most out
spoken and emphatic. Everywhere
the Church seems to be coming up
to the position that the man who
fails to vote against the sin of le
galized drunkard-making is equal
ly guilty with the drunkard-mak
er.
The General Assembly of the
United Presbyterian Church, in
session last month, adopted the
sollowing:
“Resolved: 1. That we regard
the liquor traffic as the overshad
owing curse of this nation: an
enemy to the peace, purity and
prosperity of the home, the Church
and the State. To license this
traffic is a sin against God and a
crime against humanity. Being
morally wrong it can never be
made legally right. ‘For the Son
of God was manifested’ not to reg
ulate ‘but to destroy the works of
the Devil.’ In this connection we
lament the fact that one of our
State enjoying the benefit of Pro
hibition has taken a backward
step, mid its legislature has so far
forgotten the dignity of law as to
bargain for the violation of its
own statute. We believe that the
time has fully come when Chris
tians should cease to he indiffer
ent, and should unite their efforts,
regardless of previous party affilia
tions, for its complete suppres
sion.
“2. That in our judgement no
Christian can be held innocent of
wrong-doing who, when a moral
question is at issue, so votes as to
be counted against the side of
righteousness.”
The Colorado M. E. Conference at
its late session adopted this resolu
tion:
“Resolved, That the Colorado Con.
ference of the M. E. Church pro
nounces it a sin for any Christian man
or woman to endorse, by their ballot
or otherwise, any man or party that
favors the licensing of this traffic
among meu. ’

REFORMED EPISCOPALIANS.
The General Council < f the Re
formed Episcopal Cliurcb, lately con
vened in Christ Church, Chicago, un
anitnously reaffirms 1 its standing res- i
olu ion relative to the liquor traffic,as ;
follows:
bigb or low or the Gothenburg system
of license, or the laws of the State '
which permit the manufacture of New •
England i-mn, which is sent to Africa ,
and other foreign yarts, subverting
Christian missions, or any measure i
which legalizes this atrocious liquor •
traffic, is sinning against Jehovah, wh
“RESOLVEd:I.That all Christian men
and women should, both by precept
and example, uphold the cause of
temperance, and do id 1 iu their o iwer
to suppress the liquor traffic.
“2. That no Christian can consis
tently engage in this traffic, or profit
by it, either by easing or letting the
i building in which to carry it on, or
i otherwise.
‘•3. That no Christian can consist
••id this tc’-ffic by si rning peti
mg pe-titionslfor licenses to engage m '
the same.’’
NFWI NGLAND CHRISTIANS.
Ihe New England Christian con
vention in June declared;
Concerning the liquor traffic of our
country, which is such it mighty foe
to our Christian work, which is so
thoroughly organized, and exert so
mighty a political power, we would
express our unqualified and unalter
able opposition, and would most ear
netsly exhort our poo pie to use all
honorable means for its suppression •
to give no aid to compromise mens
ures under whatever captivating
title, and to give no support, by voice
or vote to men or measures which do
not seek the enforcement of the prin
ciplcs ot total abstinence for the in
individual, aud Prohibition for the
