BAPTIST CONVENTION MEETS.

bembles at Jacksonville Delegates
present From All Ihe Southern
States.

i'.ritiMh Parliament or the Congress
,f tlit United States, convened at
.1,,, ks.mville, Fla., yesterday with
dnlefratert preHent from every State
in tlie South. The convention is
made up of messengers or delegates
from clmrcbeH, associations, State
.-.inventions, missionary societies
aij.i Sunday schools. All Baptist
, Lurches are independent. Therefore
the Convention has no authority to
I, im! the churches in its territory. Its
a.-tion is advisory, not compulsory.
Mu.i.-teis and laymen nre admitted
into the. ((invention on the same
t. iMs, without any official distinction
(,,-tween the clergy and layman.
The Haptist cry through the ages
has Id-en: "A Church without a
pope, and a State without a kiny!"
Tii.-v have always held as a funda
mental principle, that the individual
soul is competent to deal with (iod.
Tli.; Bible is their only creed and sole
guid in matters of faith and doc
trine. From its teachings they hold
that all men are born in sin, and can
tind salvation only through faith
in .Ichiis Christ. They accept the vi
carious atonement of Christ, believ
ing iu His death on the cross; His res
urrection from the grave, and His
ascension to the right hand of the
l ather, as the foundation and sedu
lity of salvation. Baptists insist
upon what is called believers' bap
tism ;is a pere.piisite to church mem
bership, in th" independence of the
local church, and hold that each
. hurch is a spiritual, democratic
body, separate from the State, owing
allegiance to (lod. In the Baptist
arch there are no priestly orders.
Ministers are solemnly set apart to
the work of the ministry without of
ficial distinction, or authority, one
over another, the terms "pastor,"
and "elder" being different names
tor the same office.
The convention has three boards,
the foreign mission board, with
headquarters a t Richmond, the home
mission board, with headquarters at
Atlanta, and the Sunday school
board, with headquarters at Nash
ville. The work of the foreign board
in to preach the gospel in foreign
lands. The home mission board
looks after mission work in the home
held, which includes the Southern
States, Cuba and the Panama sec
tion. The Sunday school board is
the head of the Sunday school work,
and publishes Sunday school helps,
.ci iodicals and books for use iu the
Sunday schools and young people's
societies. The Southern Baptist The-
illogical Seminary, the School of the j
I'rophets. located at Nashville, Ivy., i suitable for conversion into manu
is also under the control of the j facta red articles.

THE SOUTH IS COMING ALONG.
Farming Methods and Business Con -ditions
Generally Are Improving
Throughout Thl Section.
President W. W. Fitiiey, of the
Southern Railway, who has lately
returned from an inspection trip on
which he was accompanied by mem
bers of the board of directors, in
speaking of business conditions in
the Southern States, said:
"The agricultural outlook through
out the entire southeastern section
seems to be very favorable notwith
standing the increased attention be
ing given by the Southern farmer to
corn and other crops, the aggregate
acreage devoted to cotton will be
somewhat greater this j'ear than
last. The average preparation of
the soil for planting this year has
been unusually good. Farmers are
using fertilizers more scientifically
and better farming is leing practic
ed very generally throughout the
South, which may be expected to re
sult in an increase in the average
yield per acre. As the result of this
prosperous season in 1910 Southern
farmers, to a larger extent than us
ual, are able to finaace this year's
operations themselves without the
assistance of local merchants and
banks.
"Conditions in the cotton manu
facturing industry are not wholly
favorable, but, as the season pro
gresses, more definite ideas as to the
size of this ye&r'w cotton crop should
bring obout a more favorable rela
tive adjustment of the prices of the
raw material and the finished prod
ucts of the mills. The lumber bus
iness is still feeling the effects of re
stricted purchase on the part of the
railways, but a slight improvement
is noticeable in some of the lumber
producing localities. The condition
of the iron and steel industry in the
South is substantially the same as
in other parts of the country. With
underlying financial and agricultur
al conditions favorable and with a
fair business in some industrial lines
and some prospect for improvement
in other lines, there is a reasonable
b isis for the expectation of an ac
tive businesses the season progress
es. "The management of the Southern
Railway Company is not unmindful
of the requirements placed upon it
by the increasing volume of traffic
of improving its facilities for the de
velopment of business and for the
movement of traffic. It has recently
taken steps to add substantially to
its motive power for passenger and
freight trains mid to its passenger
train equipment. Its carrying ca
pacity is comfortably ahead of its
present requirements. Looking for
ward to tne progressive development
of its territory, the carrying capaci
ty of those parts of its lines where
the traffic is not sufficiently heavy to
require double tracking is being in
creased by theconstructionof a mod
ern system of lap-sidings are being
so constructed that, if business shall
become sufficiently heavy for double
truck lines, they can be used in a
double-track system. In all of these
matters the company is being gov
erned by practical, and not academ
ic, considerations, and, in pursuance
of this policy, the management now
contemplates increasing its mail line
double-trackage at a point where
the volume of traffic requirements
without going beyond or straining
its present financial resources.

NORMAN LEWIS ELECTROCUTED.
Pays Death Penalty For Murder of
Police Officer at Wilson Last Sep
tember. In the State's prison at Raleigh
lat-l Friday morning Norman Lewis,
colored, paid the death penalty in
the kctric chair for the murder of
Chief of Police J. M. Stallings, of
Spring Hope, on the 18th of last
September. The electrocution room
was crowded to its capacity. Among
the spectators were quite a number
of citizens from Spring Hope, includ
ing Mr. J. S. Stallings, brother of
the murdered policeman, and Solici
tor R. A. P. Cooley, who conducted
the prosecution of Lewis. One negro
from the city of Raleigh was allowed
to witness the electrocution. -
The condemned man spent a quiet
night Thursday night, and those who
conducted the death watch said he
was very quiet, but spent a while
reading a small testament given him
by Rev. J. E. King, his spiritual ad
viser. Rev. King stated that he was
with him on Thursday afternoon for
several hours and he made no state
ment whatever for the public, other
than that he was sorry he committed
the crime, but felt that God had for
given mm anu that he was now
saved.
HIS CRIME.
On the night of September 18th,
Stallings went to Lewis' home with
a warrant charging him with illicit
distilling. When tlie officer reached
the door he called to the negro and
told him to come to the door, he
wanted to talk with him. Lewis re
plied to wait until he could get his
shoes on, as he was barefooted, but
the officer insisted that he hurry up,
that he could not wait long for him.
The negro then picked up his shot
gun, told his wife to blow out tne
light, and opened the door. Then,
as the door was opened, a load of
shot was fired out of the dark room
into the breast of Stallings. His
breast, arms and abdomen were
loaded with shot. The officer was
carried to a hospital in; Richmond
and died on the 21st. When the
fatal shot was fired, Lewis then ran.
After getting some distance away he
turned and shot back at the crowd,
who gave him an exciting chase, but
failed to capture him. He was later
captured at Henderson by Police
man Champion.
He was tried and convicted at the
Novemberterm, 1910, Nash Superior
court. An appeal was taken to the
Supreme court and the decision
of
the lower court was confimed.
Odd Fellows Will Build School For
Orphan Home.
With the decision that the per cap
ita tax should remain the same,
$1 .40, but that 90 cents should be
given to the orphans' home and 50
cents to the Grand Lodge, and with

Bryant cup for the best exemplifica
tion of the unwritten work of the
order, the Grand Lodge of Odd Fel
lows closed its annual session at
Winston-Salem last week, to meet in
Raleigh next year.
The Grand Lodge voted to leave
the education of the orphans to the
trustees, and they decided that the
home should have a school of its

burned last January to be repaired
for this purpose. Meanwhile a suit

TRICKS OF POLITICIANS.
Farmers' Union President Directs At
tention to Those That Sec the City
Against the Country, and Declares
This Sort ot Demagogy Must Be
Smashed In Interest of Real Prog
ress. To the Officers and Members of the
Farmers' Union:
Upon my several visits to Wash
ington during the eession of Con
gress, I have more than ever been
impressed with the Demogogy that
keeps country and city apart in sen
timent and that is a clog to true prog
ress. I could call by name several Con
gressmen who rode into office by ar
rayiiiji country against city.
The procedure is simple and is one
of the oldest tricks in the bag of the
politician.
He will go into the country district
during a campaign, aud lash senti
ment against the city to a frenzy.
When the returns are all in you
will find that he has been elected by
a country majority'.'
Wrhen he gets to Washington what
does he do? Continue to flay the
residents of the city, and to take the
farmer to his loving breast? Not so.
He starts upon one of the cunning
est raddles he can devise.
For instance, take the parcels post.
He probably went through the
district before election, promising all
the farmers that one of the first
things he would do when he reached
office would be to get them a general
parcels post.
Does he fulfill that promise to the
letter?
Not so you could notice it.
He studies the election returns
faithfully.
He finds that a large part of the
vote against him came from the
cities.
His object, therefore, is to rub the
city man's back, and at the same
time not make an enemy of the far
mer. So he frames up a parcels post
that lets the farmer ship into the
city, but that protects the little city
merchant from far-off competition
by making no provision for return
shipments.
Thus he has given the man in the
country the shadow of a redemption
of his promise. And he has made a
grand-stand play to the man in the
city.
This is only given for an illustra
tion. There are many others.
I have seen Congressman after
Congressman get into office by ap
pealing to the class prejudice of the
farmer, and then turn straight
around and work might and main
to get- things for the city, that he
might-melt the opposition against
him.
It is this sort of thing, theconstant
lining up of country against city,
that is one of the greatest bars to
progress.
The city man is often made to be
lieve that the country man regards
him with suspicion and hostility, and
vice versa.
What is the result?
They both suffer in the long run.
They hesitate upon uniting in
measures in which they are both in
terested. When good government is at stake
in the State, the county, or nation,
tbey are sometimes as far apart as
the poles, when they should be fight
ing under the same banner.
I cannot too frequently warn you
against this hypocritical type of pol
itician who gets your votes under
false pretenses, and who incites you
to prejudice against people in the
cities, when, as a matter of fact, the
city and the country have a great
deal in common.
1 caution you. to watch him in ac
tion; and to mark him for close at
tention when he next offers himself
for office.
Men who use this sort of wiles to
keep in power are worthy of the sup
port neither of the city or the coun
try. Where they should be repre
senting both, they really represent
neither. Thev only represent them
selves. CHAS. S. BARRETT.

The farmer's business often needs a little extra financial back
ing, if it is to grow and prosper. That is one reason why he
should have a strong and willing bank behind him.
It is an important function of this Bank to give temporary as
sistance to farmers who seek it of us, and who have demon
strated their ability to pay obligations when due.
The best way to establish a credit here is to carry an account
with us, and we cordially invite not only the farmers, but
everyone who wants to gain ground financially, to do so.

Keep The House Warm
Wouldn't it be mighty foolish
to try and heat your house from
the outside? It would be a
shameful waste of coal. Yet
some folks try and heat their
houses with poor quality coal.
Why not pay a fair price and
get coal that burns hotly and
economically? Our coal is clean
hot and even burning. Deliver
ed at summer prices now.
