[The Senate this week listened to
Logics of Father Marquette from
»nators \ ilus and Miichell, of \\ is.,
Ind Kyle, of South Dakota, and ad
apted a resolution ofTerql by Senator
Palmer, of 111., accepting the statue
Farther Marquette and returning
the thanks of Congress to the State
[of Wisconsin for the sane. The *A.
IP. A. will probably make i. light on
this resolution when it gets in the
House. j
No speech made at tb s session
of Congress hds attracted more at
tention than that of Senator Gorman
attacking the large naval appropri-
tions, not because of his ooposition
to the navy, but because* of the
fact that more money by iflol.UOU,-
000 is being appropriated than it is
estimated that tho government will
receive from all sources during the
fiscal year beginning duly 1, next.
Ho said that one of three things
must be done, increase taxation or
issue more bonds. He called tho
$162,000,000 received frem the sale
of bonds by the the present admin
istration “blood money’ , but gave
notice that if the navel appropria
tion bill was not reduced he would
offer to amend it by providing for
an issue of $i)0,000,000 in short
term, low interest certificates, be
cause of his belief that it was better
to issue that form of indeptedness
than tho long term high interest
bonds which the Treasury will other
wise have to issue. Referring to
tho determined purpose to put this
nation on a war footing and inaug
urate on this continent the princi-
dle of military control, upon which
the European powers are based, Mr.
Gorman said: “Ours is a stronger
structure, built up by a people who
have no arms in their hands and
who need not standing armies to
defend or protect them." He pres
ented figures showing that from
1891 to 1895 the appropriations had
exceeded tho receipts to the enor
mous extent of $998,000,000. This
excess, he said, had been met in part
by the monev received from the
sale of bonds, and the rest had been
held back by the Secretary of the
Treasury, who had been compelled
to prevent improvements being made
and to withold money justly due to
citizens.
There should not be tho
doubt about the House agreeing
to the Senate amendment to the
Naval apropriation bill, prohibiting
officers of the Navy entering tho
employ of private firms who have
contracts with bhe government,
as it has very clearly been shown
that the practice lias been abused
almost to the extent of a scandal.
The amendment will go into effect,
if agreed to by the House, “June Jo,
1897.

about $9u, all lie had with him and
went on home, so our informant
states, only to find his friends, the

The Work of Writing the History of
the Late War Now Going On
and Veterans Should
Furnish Data.
(Correspondence of The Ledger.)
Etta Jane, May 4.—Rev. W. R.
Owings preached at Salem yesterday.
His forenoon text was, I Cor., 12:27,
“Now ye are the body of Christ, and
members in particular.” In the
afternoon ho chose as his text, II Cor.
6:12 in connection with the the 5th
chapter and 10th verse. “Behold, now
is the accepted time ; behold now* is
the day of salvation, for we must all
appear before the judgement seat of
Christ, that everyone may receive
the things done in his body, accord-
ng to that ho hath done, whether it
be good or had."
Our people began plowing their
corn last week. Generally we have
good stai ds.
As the work of writing the history
of our State troops in the late war is
now going on, it is very essential
that each survivor sees to it that full
and impartial accounts are given,
and we do earnestly insist that each
veteran take the interest and trouble
to write up a personal report of each
engagement and the casualties as he
remembers it. He need not fear
hut that his manuscript will he over
hauled and put in proper shape for
tlifj printer. All we want to do is to
gather the facts as they are. Many
a boy and girl can make themselves
useful by getting some old soldier to
tell his war tales and then reduce
them to writing, giving the dates,
circumstances, places, names and
number of troops engaged, names of
officers and in fact all the particular,
so far as they can, and then read it
over and get the veteran’s correction
if he has any, and this will he his
tory itself. In after years the one
who puts himself to this trouble can
look back with pride and say these
are facts which 1 snatched irom the
grave of oblivion. Those who make
themselves useful in this work will
he amply rewarded. The writing
will consist largely of biographical
sketches, accounts of individual
courage, etc., forming an immense
store ol truth from which the future
historian can draw the material for
his work. Let the work begin at
once.
Flaw you must quit your way of
delving into scripture, and making
such a mockery of Holy writ in or
der to tickle the morbid fancy of a
few weak minded admirers who like
to see that sacred book dishonored
and fly blown. I tell you it won’t
do, Flaw. Fun is fun. You have
enough of erring humanity within easy
roach to pick Haws with without
taking up that most sacred volume
and dishonoring Christ by calling
him a “feller" in regular “coaling
ground" parlance. We ought to be
satisfied with the indignity Christ
lias been subject to by being called
“the sinner’s friend" even when that
is done in tho proper spirit , and with
reverential awe. Then, loo, you have
no business using such slang about
the sainted John who was the fore
runner of (lie world's Redeemer. You
have no doubt, read the scriptures
enough to know its meaning.
“Lot every one that iiametli the
name of Christ depart from iniqu'ty."
II Timothy 2:19. “Them that honor
me I will honor, and they that des
pise me shall he lightly esteemed."
I Samuel 2 90, and so on with other
warnings of the same kind.
I heard a beautiful young lady,
and a very intelligent one, too, say
last Friday that Flaw Bicker was
going to ruin Tint I.kdoek if he
didn’t quit dabbling In scripture.
Her mother stood by and endorsed
every word of It. Well, mudnin,
Flaw is going to do no such thing.
We won’t allow him. Ho has a trick
up to catch some enthusiastic ad
mirer who is saying, “Hurrah Flaw,
you knock the Bible out and then we
can have our way In this old world
so far as religion is concerned.
These ministers and religious cranks
who find fault with you and your
way of writing are wrong them
selves." Just us soon as ho gets
enough guiuo in ids net he is going
to turn Ids Haw picking machine on
the crowd and cull them fools, devils,
traitors and every other low down
name ho cun think of, and that's a
good deal. Mr. Flaw you stop your
style of preaching, for like Arch
Cooney said afiout Mike Hooter’s In
Major Jones’ Georgia scenes, “It’s
nuthlii inore’n loud hollerin, nohow."
I had a pleasant trip to Spartan
burg last week and railed upon the
gonial editor of the Headlight and
enjoyed a half hour’s conversations
with him. He kindly invited me to
spend tlie night with him in his home
hut my arrangements were such as
to make it impossible for me to do so.
Col. Gantt is an entertaining talker
as well as writer. In his fight for
the old soldiers ho has made himself
quite popular with them. He has
been the means of driving the wolf
from the door of many an old help
less veteran, or still less fortunate
widow. Besides, lie has not gone out
of Ills way to dodge vindicting the
honor and manhood of those who
sacrificed their lives, limbs and health
upon their country’s alter. Bully
for Larry Gantt.
Early last Saturday morning the
clouds began to roll up from the
Southeast and the thunder indicated
that the dry spell was at an end.
The gentle rain began falling and the
plants again showed signs of life
while all nature in its several tongues
joined the grand anthem of praise for
“His wonderful goodness to children
of men."
Some Mormon elders came into
this neighborhood last week. They
were waited upon by a body of citi
zens who respectfully requested them
not to hold any meetings as they
might he subject to some harsh treat
ment, or otherwise cause unneces
sary trouble in the neighborhood.
They agreed to desist and promised
to leave the next day. Our citizens
generally are not outlaws. The best
people hold the Christian religion
above everything else, and will never
tamely submit to false and pernicious
doctrines that tend to undermind it.
We haven’t got a church in this
country whose doors are not open
wide to Miy who desire to attend, and
in nearly every one we have a live
Sabbath school thatiwiil welcome
with open arms and hearts every one
who wishes to learn the truths of the
Bible.
The rain last Saturday was a sore
disappointment to the young people
who expected to attend the picnic at
Skull Shoals. As the rain was so
much needed to hrimr up the crops
they were perfectly satisfied to stay
at homo and forego the pleasure in
store for them.
However, a great number of both
sexes met, I am told, and had a de
lightful time. This is as it should
be. We like for them to have all the
innocent pleasure they can.
Tho township democratic club met
at Owen’s Ford last Saturday and
elected eleven delegates to represent

It Was For Free Silver at the Ratio of
16 to i.
Anyone who attended tho county
Democratic convention at Spartan-
hnrg Monday could not fail to have
been impressed with the fact that
those elected to the State convention
wore silverites at the rate of 16 to 1.
The mooting was presided over by
Congressman Stanyarn Wilson and ho
did it very creditably. All tho del
egates elected expressed themselves
unquestionably in favor of silver at
the ratio of 16 to 1.
The speeches made were in the
main moderate and temperate but
one or two went so far as to be un
kind in their remarks toward the
gold-bugs, but while the convention
was solid for silver it was plain that
its heart did not approve of abusive
allusions to those who held opposite
views, and that was as it should have
been. If you happen to he a sih’erite
you should not abuse the gold-bug;
if you believe in a single gold stand
ard you should not abuse the silver*
ite, for this is a free country and a
man has a perfect right to think and
act as he chooses. It’s our firm be
lief, however, that neither gold or sil
ver or greenbacks have anything to
do with the regulation of prices hut
the unalterable law of supply and de
mand is the only factor.
R. M. Jolly was elected as one of
the delegates.
Among those who attended from
this section as delegates from their
respective clubs were: Wright Jolly,
L. B. Sarratt and R. M. Jolly, Grassy
Fond; L. B. Davis, W. D. Byars and
Ed Richards, Macedonia; T. Daven
port, R. A. Jones, J. C. Blanton and
Ed. II. DeCamp, Limestone.

Some of Us Haven’t Been Caught.
A printing office is usually consid
ered a rather tough place, and the
newspaper worker a mighty bad man.
Statistics, however, do not hear out
that idea. Of 3,890 convicts in the
State penitentiary of Texas, there is
not a printer or newspaperman, while
there are ministers, doctors, bankers,
barbers, photographers, barkeepers,
cooks and members of all professions
and callings. The printer gets a bad
name because the nature of his busi
ness teaches him to detest shams and
