Some one has started a bocm
for Governor Craige as a proper
successor to Senator Oyerman in
1915. Id our opinion the fellow
who started snch an idea hasn't
got his brain working right. In
the first plaoe Senator Overman
will succeed himself and in the
eoond place an anti-Bible reader
need net iho up for anything.
Next week is trade in Salisbury

The trial of Thos. E. Watson,
editor-author and a former presi
dential candidate, for sending ob
scene matter thorough the mail
was quashed in the United States
Court at Augusta, Ga., yesterday
fir. Watson is the publisher of a
magazine and a weekly paper and
has been making some onslaughts
on 'th Roman Catholic church
and reprinted tome of the filth to
be found in their books of in
structions to priests, for which
ome Catholics desired to have
him prosecuted, or rather perse
cuted. The indictment was thrown
out on the ground that it was not
possible to pick out a phrase here
and there and find one guilty
thereon. The entire publication
must be obsoene to oonvict on
inch a charge. This is a great
victory for the freedom of the
press and the propaganda against
Romanism.
It used to be that those who ob
jected to the reading of the Bible
were considered persecutors and
tyrants, but now since our Baptist
brethren have arranged a Bible all
for themselves and, fear that
hould a Bible be read in the
school other than this rew one,
the positions are reversed and
those who want the Bible read are
the tyrants, according to A. John
son, of Charity and Children. We
submit that if the desire to have
the Bible read without comment
is tyranical then what is the mis
sionary spirit? Did the Master
assume the role of a tyrant when
he said go ye and preaoh the gos
pel to all the world? This appears
strange, since no one objects to a
convert being immersed, if be so
desires, that our brethren seem to
make this point the one requisite
to salvation. This opinion of the
Baptists' position seems to be
strengthened by the fact that only
a few leaders who know of this
new Bible oppose the reading of
the Bible in sohool, while the
rank and file, unaware of this re
cent invention, are heartily in
favor of its being read therein.
the new method of tax collecting
adopted for Salisbury. It is one
of those peculiarly freak measures
with which the country is suffer-S
ing and assists, with others of -similar
ilk, in making the rich !
richer and the poor poorer. It
saves money for the weaitny,
those who can take advantage ( of
the arrangement, and takes mosey
from the poor who cannot meet
the requirements. As the poor is
the under dog in the fight and
bears all the burdens any way,
this measure is particularly un
just. Oh that we could' find lomn
statesmen, men without selfish
ness, men with justice in their
souls and brains in their head to
occupy the posts in the law mak
ing bodies of our land 1 In this
day of paternalistic tendeno es
it is surprising such a measure
oould have been made into law,
and this fight at the time when
the nation is trying to assist the
poor and make the rich pay their
jaat portion of the national reve
nue in the way of an income tax.
