Lev. T. A. Nash tilled his regular
appointment at Salem church Sunday
and preached a forcible sermon to a
large congregation on the subject of
consistency among church members.
Lev. J. E. Lellov preached an able
sermon on the same line the Sunday
before at Loco. We a>o glad that
the preachers are giving ilieir for atten¬ the
tion to this important matter,
churches of this country certainly
need reviving or remodling, as it 1ms
become almost impossible to fell
many of the so-called Christians from
the worldlings when you sec them
avvav from the church. 'Lite great
need of the age is true manhood.
When von make a profession stand
to it ; don't be hypocritical, Of all
the detestable things in this world
is a person that hasn’t got the man¬
hood to deline his position in any
avocation of life.
There were many sad faces at
Salem last Sunday caused by the
news of the tragic death of t hat good
man, Rev. 'Tiros. West, of McDuffie,
who was well known and much
admired in this section.
Well, Mr. Editor, contrary to my
prediction some time hack, it seems
that we are in the midst ofwar at
last. Our congressmen were blood¬
thirsty ’lighting; and were just obliged to do a
little or at least order the
people to do it. But what are they
lighting for? It seems to us that.
they have left the main issue and
jumped upon another hobby. It
looks like Pncie Sam has an elephant
on his hands at present, is <i
politician’s war and the pcop’e are
not catching on so fast as fcuev ex¬
pected, hence their dileinna. Wo are
no lawyer nor the son of one, but it
looks to us like they would have a
hard time forcing the subjects ot this
government to war against nnotlur
nation, when the rights and Iibelli’S
of this country have never been
molested by them.
Now, my advice to all Populists is,
don’t let vour minds be drawn off by
the excitement of war, but let us
be more alert for in this hour of
gloom and bloodshed may appear
t he golden opportunity for the slic¬
cess 'd!' the grand reform principles
for which we have been struggling
so long. RjiFOim Eli.
