•TONY" AFTER -TIMOTHY.",
Charges Him With Copying His Ar
ticles From the Book Entitled "The
Negro A Beast"—Asks Timothy
Some Questions'.
Mr. Editor :
On examining the Reporter of
last week, [ saw a four column ar
ticle written or rather copied by
one "Timothy." It is a matter of
little importance who "Timothy"
is as his writings are all quotations
from a certain l>ook, entitled
"The Negro A Beast." written by
a fellow Carroll, who claims that
lie has spent fifteen years of his
life and twenty thousand dollars
in money in getting his book on
the market. Carroll would have
people to believe that his was a
great sacrifice; but 1 dare say
that he has reaped a nunlerate
fortune from such men as friend
'"Timothy," who spend ninny
s'eepless nights and endure many
hours of hard labor with their
brains trying to solve this all im
portant question (as they would
have us believe) as to the negro
possessing that never dying ele
ment, the soul.
Now, Mr. Editor, it is not my
purpose to enter into any lengthy
discussion of this subject, in fact
I am not capable of sitting as
judge in a case where is to be de
cided the great question of the
immortality of the greater part of
thi inhabitants of the earth, but
would like to submit a few ques
tions to "Timothy" which I am
sure he will take pleasure in answ
ering if he is honest in his writ
ings anil belief.
1. What is your motive in copy
ing from Carroll's book and hav
ing it published in the Reporter?
'l. What constitutes the soul
possessing power?
If you should succeed in
making the negro believe he had
no soul, would it better his con
dition or make him a more desira
b'e creature to have in our coun
try?
4. Will it benefit the whito peo
ple if they are established in this
balief?
I cannot believe that this fellow
who takes up so much valuable
space, really wishes anyone to
t-ike his writing seriously. Per
haps 1 may be mistaken in this
and if 1 am I ask him to be serious
in answering the few questions
which I have asked him.
I liope that "Timothy" will not
siiy of me as he did of "Dog-Killer''
that it was my love for the negro
that prompted this short state
ment. And just here one word in
defense of "Dog-Killer," as I hap
pen to know him. It was no love
for the negro, that caused him to
enter his protest, but a belief that
is well grounded gained by years
of study and observation. His
only purpose is to bettor the con
dition of the negro by conceding
to him his just rights and lending
him a helping hand in any worthy
purpose or cause.
Keineinber "Timothy" that our
ancestors were all roving savages
in the fi.rosts of Germany and
(rani, no further advanced in the
S'"ale of civilization than the black
est tribe in all Africn. andnoinore
worthy to be called "in the image
of God" than the negro. It is a
constant development that lias
brought us to our present stage of
enlightenment ami I dare say
that with equal advantages the
negro would not have been left
far behind in the trend of
civilization.
If the negro lias a soul,
you are in (lunger of a fearful con
demnation for the Bible says if
we cause one of our fellowbeings
to stumble it would be better for
us that a mill stone were put
about our neck and we cast into
the sea. If he has no soul it will
do him no good to convince him
of it, as I'm sure Timothy himself
will confess that negroes are bene-'
tited by hearing the gospel. lam
sure of one thing, if a negr.» belie 1
ves he lias a soul it will take sever
al "Timothys" and "Books by
(Jhas. Carroll" to convince him to
the coi.trarv.

KING ROUTE TWO.
King Route 2, Aug. s.—Will
you allow me space to have an
other chat with "Roviug Joe."
I would first say you answered
my questions correct, and thank
you very much for correcting the
mistake I made as it was done
through haste.
Well, you said I loaded my gun
pretty heavy for a Rover, but I
don't think I loaded as heavy ac
cording for a rover as you did for
a Sunday School girl, but 1 think
it will be a great help for us all to
look after those questions. So I
will try to answer your question
the best 1 can, and if I make a
mistake I will ask you or anyone
else to correct it.
1 don't tliink you will timl the
word "Boy" used but twice in the
Bible, Genesis 25-17, where
they were speaking uf Esau and
Jacob, as you know they were
twins. The verse read as follows:
"And the boys grew and Esnu was
a cunning hunter, a man of the
field; and Jacob was a plain man
dwelling in tents," Zac. 8-5, and
"th# streets of the city shall be full
of boys and girls playing in the
streets thereof."
Well, now, ww will take up the
uext question as to what words
are used most in the Bible. I think
the word "and" is used most in
the Bible. Von will fiud that the
little word "and'' is used 35,544
times in the old Bible and 10,>04
in the new testament. Now, as I
said if T am not correct on this I
certainly will thank any one to
correct me. *
A protracted meeting was held
at Chestnut Grove M. E. church
last week with the addition of
eight members to the church.
Messrs. Hickmou and Holland did
the preaching. They certainly did
their duty, but it seemed that
some of the people were too hard
hearted to yield. But may they
yet see that they are on the wrong
road and turn before it's too late.
Mr. Gaston Carroll, of Winstojf.
visited Mr. Joe Gibson's recently.
Lookout you fellows that are sell
ing liquor, he is after you, and I
expect he is after some of you
girls but in a different way.
Now, "Roving Joe," won't you
please tell me what verse and in
what chapter the word "anil" is
used the most times, and how
many times ?
Wishing the Reporter and its
readers much success.

Sunday Schools in their present
form. I agree with you that Sun
day Schools are not doing what
some people claim for them this
day and time. 1 have been a mem
herof Sunday School myself in
the past and know what I am talk
ing about. Will some who are so
in favor of Sunday School tells me
why they are not spoken of by the
Bihlo ? Was there not children
in the days of Apostle. The Apos
tles possessed as great a desire for
the salvation of souls, as muHi love
to the cause of Christ and knew
ns well what God would own for
bringing persons to the knowledge
of salvation, as any do at this day.
We therefore must Iwlieve that if
these schools were of G.al, we
should find some account of (hem
in the New Testament.
There are more children attend
ing Sunday Schools, more mission
aries traveling among the heath
en. more mission, tract. Bible and
temperance societies and other so
callcd religious organizations, and
more money spent for the same,
than in any other ugeof the world.
Right in the face of this, the j
world is growing from had to
worse. .The age. is hiul, socially,
morally and politically, and no
thinking man will deny it. Men
are greedy, selfish, dish i test, cruel,

Capelln, Aug. (>.
Mr. Southern :
Will you allow mo a little space
for a chat with Mr. Southern on
Sunday School.
Now, Mr. Southern, you aru
writing and ridiculing Sunday
School and you really don t know
what Sunday School is. We cn«
tell by your writing that you never
was in a Sunday School. We have
">.year-old boys in our Sunday
School that knows more about it
than you do. So 1 think you had
better learn what you are writing
about before you write any more.
Now, Mr. Southern, you \4O to
Sunday School next Sunday and
if you don't learn anything about
God's word you will learn some
thing to write about. Yon talk
like all the people who were at the
foot washing were Sunday School
children. I learn that the boy who
j misbehaved was not a Sunday
School boy, and you have took all
the Sunday Schools so you could
get a start, it does look like you
could of written about that boy
misbehaving without offending al'
t'te Sunday Schools. Mr. South
ern, you come up to Capellnto our
1 Sunday School and see how we
icirryiton. Now, I don't mean
j that we hive any better Sunday
School than any one else, but wo
; have a large attendance. We have
71 scholars in the card class and
want you to see how nice they be
i have. You come and we will read
God's word and see which it com
j uinuds us the most to do to wash
{each others feet or to teach Sun
day School.
I will close by shouting three
cheers for Sunday School Teacher.
