I wo Leading Ministers Show the Con nection Between Good Roads and Efttoieut Gospel Work. On Cue last day of the Road Congress in Charlotte. Rev. J. R. Brooks, U. D.; !'oi merly patoi for four year.- ol Centenary M. E. church, New Be.uc. and Rev. Dr. Preston, of the Presbyt-jihin church made talks on --The Relation of Better Public Road- to Country Church Attendance.'' Tbe Chat-lotto Observer reports the -p lies. We make extracts. Dr. Brooks wa- tae first speaker. He nid: REMARKS OK DK. BROOKS. Such roads as they have in the New Et gland and the Middle States, and in some portions of this country, affect the ni - -iidance on cliurch services greatly With good loads not half the horses would be needed to take the people to church; only about one-fourth of the ilme would te required, and there would lie only about one tenth the worry and dis- comlort and unpleasant enor to reach church now necessary. If we had good road- three times as many people would attend church in winter. "Good roads would revolutionize and g'vatly improve the plan of giving the gospel to the people who live outside of the cities. There are too many churches, and not enough people to a church, in the country. Every man wants a church at his own door, lor the reason that he can not get away from Lis door to go to clun eb. The country preachers have to .ravel over the muddy roads from one chinch to the other. If we had good loads the distance between the churches wa u'd be considerably decreased. -Wnli roads like those in and about ( h.r'oite. the trouble anil expense ot u'.in I would be lessened With good (-a. is. the church privileges iu the co'intrv would approximate those of the lion. I roads prove pruritable to wot'n -bippeis. The amount saved ou the wear and tear ot vehicles would pay the tax lor keeping up the road, and pay for bet ter preachers. Large congregations in spire a preacher, but large congrega tions cannot be had in the country with bad road-. The ..ame applies to the Sun day school. A large portion of them go into winter quaiiers. The roads are so bad the teachers and children cannot at le. ;. 'T inier t!te improved road system, only o::e-di:rd of the number of Sunday schools would be needed; oue-ha.f as many teachers, and one-half as many su pi riiuendents. To sum up the effec's of u d nmds on church attendance, we noi ice " "i'r.-t A large attendance under the ' I present system ot good roads. i . on.l. Good roads U nd to decrease j tlie number and increase the strength of 1 :, lurches It is not assigned oie to say laiv tins matter oi goon roans is to oe brought about, but I hope and believe it will come about." Dr. Preston was the next speaker. He acknowledged, in pleasant words, the in vitation to add a word or two on the sub ject, which, he said, linked itself with the question w hich was the occasion of the orga-iizai ion of tlie congress. This sub ject i- linked also, said the speaker, with liie rev ival of business. Dlt PRESTON'S REMARKS. Dr. Preston in his remarks said: I was requested to speak especially on the influences rf good or bad roads in the valley of Virginia, where the most of my life was spent. It was the muddiest place in the world until after the war, but they have pierced that country with great highways, and the influence upon the attendance at the various churches is marked. Formerly the churches were packed in summer and empty in winter; now the winter congregations have vastly improved. This could not be so if there had uot been improvements in the road. The chuich. as an investment, could af ford to double the tax. The Sunday schools which formerly slept all winter and came out lean, hungry am I weak in the summer, have improved. 'Good loads affect the social life. Where the roads are good, there can be societies of various kinds, which can meet at night. People love to live in such a neighborhood. It gives me great satisfac tion to see in the State of my adoption this, a road congress, p.. is the first road caio-tntiou I ever saw, and I am s truck wim the personnel. I am glad North Carolina hail the spirit to take the matter up. I don't believe any other State since the wm- has made such progress. (Ap plause ) North Carolina has prospered by the ea. nestness, intelligence and power of die poopl" who have hold of her work. You remember the definition of a Scotchman is a man who keeps the Sabbath and every thing else he can get his hand on. Let North Carolina keep the sroocl roads, and i-v. nailing else jjood she can get."' A Central New- disp-.icb Irom Seoul. dated 6 p. m, Sept. 16th. says a great battle vjas fought at Ping Yang on Fiidav and Saturday between the Chinese and Japanese troops, in which the former were utter'y routed. On Thursday a Japanese column from Pong San made a r 1 nnoissanee in force, eliawing the fire ,.f die Chines - forts, anil thus ascer'ained their positions. The tolumn then fell b ck in ejooal order with little loss. Fri ar, night all the Japanese were iu posi tion for a combined attack upon the enemy. It ',- estimated that 20.000 Cnin es.. soldiers w ere engaged in the battle. The Japanese captured immense stores of provisions, munitions of war and hun dreds of colors. The Chinese loss is esti ma ed at ltj.O'O killed, wounded and taken prisoner. The Japanese lo-s is only thirty killed and 270 wounded, in cluding eleven officers. Most of the casualties among the Japanese ocearreel during the first day's fighting, and very few were the result of the night attack. The Japanese troops are in active pur--u.t of the fugitives who have thrown away their arms and readily belli thera e ve- piisoners A desultory war may be carried ou for some time to come, but unless China shall succeed in getting another army in the peninsula, Corea w ill undoubtedly' remain iq the posses sion of the Japanese.

The Populists are veiling themselves hoarse tor lair electrons, and they are act ually going to bring this about by fusion with the Republicans, who have the lbs Unction of having stolen out-right i presidential election. Well ! Monroe Journal. Let every good citizen in North Caro lina reinemler the terrible condition of affairs when the Republicans had control of the State, nnd then sk himself if he can do anything that will directly or indi rectly help put the same party back in power. Is it sensible? Monroe Jour nal. The Japanese are moving on Pekin and there are predictions that they will oc cupy the capital by November. Li Hung Chang is condemned tor bringing on the war and Ins removal is said to be only a matter of time. His inability is show n by the lawlessness ot the troops. The Imperial Government is also pushed for money. The Asheville Citizen gives the follow ing: A Ualeigu telegram says that twelve larmers 01 iruinoru county have been put ou u-.ai recently tor lorcmg two Mormon missionaries to leave there. The telegram 1 Ids that "the .same kind of removal of .Mormons has occurred in a number of c-unfies, but this is the first time there has been any trouble about it." naleigii gsews and Obse ve-r says: Dropping in at the Commercial and Far mers' Bank, we saw on the Teller's counter a huge pile of brand new silver dollars. They were beauties! Besides these there were several bags full, which )t poured mtoa barrel would fall it. These dollars were made in August, 1894 and were just received from the mint in Philadelphia." Does fusion fuse? Not u.uch. One man prominent in third party councils of Gas ton county remarked that he wanted; 110 Ripub'ican fusion in his; when his party wished to abandon its principles, he was going to luse back with his Democratic friends in whom he had confidence. Aod this man is a fair type of every honest Democrat who has been misted by the new concern. Gastonia Gazette.

Surgeon General Wyman, of the Marine Hospital Service, has received word through the State Department that yellow lever exists at Savimu, Mexico, in the province of Campeclic. nr. Wyman sent word to the health authorities at Jacksonville, Mobile ami New Orleans. We are glad to know that no danger whatever is anticipated at Baltimore. Virginia is to vote on a constitutional amendment to give justices of the peace jurisdiction over cases of petty larcany, thus saving the cost 01 trial by jury in the Superior court and the delay of waiting for it to convene. It is fully believed the amendment will be carried; there seems to be almost no opposition to it. The Raleigh correspondent of the News and Observer says that some of the Re publicans are very angry because their county convention last Saturtlay voted down a resolution pledging support to Milliken, the Republican Congressional nominee. There rs considerable frijtion among the Republicans and the Populists and some distrust. From Elwood, Ind., comes the weird tale of two fat hogs and an equally ple thoric gocsse which wer carrieel by a cy- clojoe 207 miles from Peoria, 111., and dropped safely into Elwood. If the El wood lolks wanted to tell a really good one they should have the firm produce blown to where Randall's "army"' bap peas to be grubbing along and deposited at tne feet ot the cook ready for the oven. That would be something like it. MR. GRAHAM DECLINES. He Will Not Enter into a War of Words With Mr. Thomas. Editor Journal: In your issue of 13th iust, Mr. Jas. A. Thomas demands that I answer certain questions asketl by himself. Now I do not regard myself as being on tiial before Mr. Thomas tribunal; hence I respectfully decline to enter a war of words with him in regard to matters that are not likely to be productive of gooel results to the cause of religion. The general tone of the controversy has taken a position lower than I can af ford to stoop. Recriminations are not in my line. The entire controversy is uncalled for and useless. All the evidence was before the committee, Mr. Street's statement and Mr. Hatch's were considered and respect ed, but there was a large amount of re buttal testimony and of course according to the world-wide custom the committee were compelled to accept the preponder enceot.evidcnce. They acquitted Mr West because it teas not proved that he was guilty. The church is satisfied with their decision and wonders in what way it con cerns Mr. Thomas. The Methodist Epis copal church with its three miIlions(uear- Iv) can take care ot itself. I published the reasons why Mr. West was acquitted tn the Journal of 5th inst for the benefit of the public. I did not give all of the evidence pro e' con because I did not consider it at all neces.sary. I gave enough to prove Mr. West not guilty on March loth. That was the date used in the clmrgt s and that was lhe trip to New Berne t hat Messrs. Street and Hatchett speak of. I have as much more testimony which was also before the com mittee equally conclusive covering his ni'st and third visits. But since the mat ter is likely to create hardness aud strifa I decline to give any more to the public. As to the criticisms made by th . Jour nal on my article of Sept. 5th, I just re fer the die readers to the closing utteran ces of M. L Pilancl of Ocraooke. and leave him to form his own conclusions. There fore consid. ring that I have said all that I need 10 say in regard to '.he matter I shall on my part let the curtain fall. But before I lay aside my pen I will adtl that my convictions of religious duty to myself and my utter abhorrence of such disgraceful, nonsensical, nauseating, polem ical discussions alone impel me to this step. I could descend into the mire aud filth and say hard things but if the victory will give Brother 1 homas any joy I cheer fully yield it to him; and wash my hands of the whole controversy. Bespectfully, W. Q. A. Graham M j " ' JUNI S (01 1 V I OLITI IH. A. Grand Outpouring..! t lie P. upb- at Trenton, Saturday Sept. 15ili lhe Tilt Between Gen'l. llattle and Dr. Cyrus Thompson E L. Franck's pe eh. Editor Joi'knai.: A large en coarse of the people of Jones and On-low Colin ties were at Ti'enton on Saturday . hear the joint debate 1 h it was to have taken place bet wi en. I O. Shaw our present nominee for ( -tigress from this d stncl aud Dr. Cyrus Thompson the piuiiol candidate for the same position. Sick ness in the fam lv of Mr. Shaw, prevent ed his attendance, his place, though, was ably filled by Gen I. C. A. Buttle of New Berne who di:,cns.-;ed t "lie political issues of the day with much ability and fairness. He made a telling speech, lie tolrl what the Congress had done within the few short months, it had been in power. That it done much and that much more might have been done had it have had a good working majority in the Senate as it had in the hou-e. He said that the democratic party had ar.ted in gooel faith in its efforts to carry out the Chicago platform. That it hatl succeedeel under he circu iistanees fairly well and deseived praise instead of censure therefcr. Had repealed the odious Federal election laws. That fed eral bayonets would not mle our elec tions nor frequent free and lair expression of public i sentiment. He dis cussed the reduction of the national ex penditures of the povetnuient. The re peal of the Sherman act, also of the Mc Kinley Tariff. Of the cutting down of the pension expenditures, o tlie tu ting off of the "Pension Frauds." In fine, Gen'l. Battle gave a true epi tome cf the situation of the political status under republican regime; ami of the contrast between (hen and now. That the people now uneler a democratic inL ministration were doing lairly well; and were more prosperous now than formerly under republican mis-rule. He ridiculed in scathing terms the un, holy marital alliance between the republi can and Populist par'.ii s in the State. That the Republicans had always been a party of frauds, and that the Populists could not exist iu friendly amicable teh. tions with such a party without being tainted anel contaminated with fraud. That it would be necessarily compelled lo be "Particeps Criminis," it would of course eventually be swallowed up by the republican party. That it would "Ex nec essitate rei" go tliat w n u on the principle of absorption. And while we are on ibis thins; of absornfon we 1 1 i 2 lit properly say that the republican party had performed the part of a gre.t "sponge" and thereby absorbed all of the money there was in the public tuasuty, during Harrison's administration, and left the treasury as dry and as empty as a lemon after it had been squeezed. Gen'l. Battle made a very good spe vdi. TTi- : I-" .1 1 111s icasouiug was ionium hiui convincing and his conclusions just. Dr. Thompson in reply used about the same old arguments. He isa preitv good debater, a bright man a man ot fine education, and f.ccompli.shmen.s-, well equipped nnd m:ike, a capital speech trom his standpoint, but the trouble ot it is, he views things from the wrong stand point. We believe that his intentions are good. Mis heart is right but Ins head is wrong. The Dr. may be and doubtless is a good physician, but he is a political lailu.ro. He does uot make a correct ' diagnosis' of the political situation. He is a political quack, so to speak, and if he were to diagnose his patients in his medical treatment as he diagnosed his political constituents here, his patients would all die, as he himself will die also politically it he follows his own treatment; but we believe tho doctor ' lias retired from the practice of meelicine, as he will also retire from poli tics after the November electionor then he will have ''laid himself out'' so to speak and will sleep the political sleep that Knows no "waKing. We have the utmost respect for Dr. Thompson's fine literary attainments, conversational powers, charming address, etc. but must think that he is a little off on politics, and will be further after election. We notice present upon the occasion also F. D. Koonce of Onslow. This is an off year for him in politics, so also is it with Jtj Li. francks who was also present. It is said that Mr. Francks expected the nomination irom the Popu'isis to the senate but was disappointed We see it printed in the papers, that he nude a sixty minutes speech in the convention. Such a speech from such a man is enough to kill any one off. If a large man at tempts to make a speech in length in proportion to his size, hi may expect to De downed because it does look like it might be unending; and the majority don't like to be talked to death therefore will down every one who attempts it. lithe lacts be true he tailed of recogni tion "because of his much talking" He -1! !-- 11 laiieu ueiuiei wisely nor wen. 11 seems. Sic transit gloria muneh The sensational suit of Mrs. Mary C. Cram vs. Kitty T. Coe, alias Kitty T. Cram, comes up in Raleigh, Oct. 2d. The plaintiff is from Canada, and, as has been told, she claims that William C. Cram is her husband. Iu her complaint she sues Mrs. Kitty Cram for conspiracy to e.itiee away her husband and lor alienation of his affections, and alto for living in adul tery with him. Mrs Mary Cram's attor ney says she has a copy of her marriage license and also a certificate from the preacher who performed the marriage ceremony.
