PREACHER GETS TEN YEARS
Rev. A. B. riorrLson, Who Eloped
With Step-Daughter Con
victed at Texarkana
Texarkana, July 15.—A. B.
Morrison, a former Baptist preach
er, was convicted in the Circuit
Court on the Arkansas side of
town today on an indictmentcharg
ing violation of the age of consent
law, and was given a sentence of
ten years in the penitentiary. The
crime is alleged to have been com
mitted ten years ago. the victim
being his 13-year-old step-daugh
ter, whose mother he had married
I two years before. He afterward
eloped with the girl, according to
the proof submitted at the trial to
day, going first to Oklahoma Ter
ritory and afterwards to New,
Mexico, continuing his preaching
all the time. At the end of three :
years he deserted the girl, leaving!
her with two children. She after
I ward returned to her people, liv
i ing ten miles south of here, and
! has since married an honest far
mer.
Six months ago Morrison was
ascertained to be in Manchester,
j Tenn.. living with a young wife,
i whom he had married about a year
ago. lie vvas arrested and brought
I back here and has been in jail ever
since. His young wife followed
j and has been loyal to him to the
j last, hiring out as cook to get mon
ley to help him. He admitted on
I the witness stand that he was the
father of his step-daughter's chi 1
i dren.
His victim, now a mature worn
j an, was the chief witness against
j him. He affects great piety and
i claims to be sanctified.
THE ONLY EASY PLACE.
It is not an uncommon thing
for young people to try to get |
along without any hard work to
tit themseldes for their own future.
Henry Ward Beecher once receiv
ed a letter from a lad asking for
an easy place. The great divine
replied:
“You cannot be an editor; do j
not try the law; do not think of
the ministry; let alone all ships,
shops and merchandise; abhor |k>1
itics; don’t practice medicine; be
not farmer nor mechanic, neither
be a soldier nor a sailor; don’t
work, don't study, don't think.
None of these, things are easy.
My son, you have come into a
hard world. I know of only one
easy place in it, and that is the
grave. ”
IS A TWO-SIDED QUESTION
Hon. John Hindman Writes His
Views on the Other Side
of Protii Question.
To The Newark Journal.
Hoping that you will give me
space in The Journal that I may !
make a few remarks on the other
side of the prohi question, I pro-!
ceed to jot them down. I hope ■
that the world will not be too
harsh on me for attempting to!
show that nearly all questions of
any importance have two sides to
them. I go into this matter with
out any conscientious scruples,
feeling that my cause is just.
When our great Creator created
the things that lie did. He certain
ly knew what He intended should
come to pass. Consequently, fore
knowing all things, He created!
nothing in vain.
It is said that man is the noblest |
work of the Creator. He may be.
if he does say it himself. There j
is one thing1 quite evident and that j
is that the Creator never created
anything in which there exists!
more difference of opinion than
amongst men, on what He did cre
ate. However, we take it for
granted that what He did create
He pronounced good, and it was
good. But it appears that that
most immaculate(0 part of crea
tion, man, was about the first of
all creatures to make trouble, and
try to run the universe according
to his own ideas. And as to ideas,
he is never short on them.
In 11 is wisdom the Creator cre
ated all living things, and by His
inxorable law all living things
have to subsist on the nutriment
of something else, either animate
or inanimate, that exists. This
being the case, we again see the
wisdom of the Creator in causing
this nutriment to exist in condens
ed form. And food for man or
beast that does not contain it is
worthless. This nutrimentin con
densed form is alcohol. The
stomach of all warm-blooded ani
mals is a distillery in miniature.
And when that distillery is out of
order the whole system is out of
order.
As to quantity in the works of
nature, alcohol ranks among the
first, as all things, both animal
and vegetable, contain it in var
ious quantities.
It is evident, furthermore, that
the Creator intended that man,
for his smartness, should live by
the sweat of his brow. Conse
quently, to make work for all. He
ordained that man should produce
it in large quantities by art, thus
making labor for hundreds of
thousands. It is evident that the
All Wise Being knew that some
would use it to excess, thus fulfill
ing the behests of His eternal law
—the survival of the fittest. He
knew that certain men would kill
themselves by the excessive use of
it. This He knew long ages be
fore they were born, but the edict
had to be fulfilled, that the fittest
might survive, thereby marking
the standard of humanity high up.
Weed out the weaklings that the
thrifty might thrive. Of the class
that cannot resist this temptation
there is not two per cent of all the
people. Some very good people
seem to be horribly worried over
the homes made desolate by the
use of alcohol. I think it can be
shown that five homes are made
happy and prosperous, where one
is wrecked by strong drink alone.
If the manufacture and sale of
all alcoholic liquors was prohibited
in the United States, that and its
corffeequonce would puttwo million
people out of employment, which
would force them to seek employ
ment inher already overcrowd
ed indilstries.
As I may be intruding on space
and time I had better close for
this time. John Hindman.

WILL KEEP OUT OF POLITICS
Monroe County Farmers Union
Unanimously Adopted Reso
lutions to that Effect.
Holly Grove, July 14.—More
than 3,0(H) people from Monroe
and Phillips counties attended
t h e Farmers Union L>arbe
cue five miles from here today.
The Monroe county Farmers Un
ion met at 9:3® and every union in
the county was represented. S.
T. Holloway, the president, called
the meeting to order and ,J. M.
Lindle.v, of Holly Grove, the sec
retary, called the roll of delegates.
Monroe and Phillips counties will
be well represented at the State
Farmers Union to be. held in Lit
tle Rock August 1.
The following resolutions were
u nan i mo usly adopted:
“Whereas, The Farmers Union
has had an unprecedented growth,
and now has practically in itsmem
bersnip all the farmers of Monroe
county who are eligible and who
have been attracted to the Union
because of its non-political declara
tions, and the positive assertion of
the heads of the departments that
it is a business organization:
“We, the members of the Mon
roe County Union, reiterate the
declaration of our constitution that
it is a non-political organization;
therefore, be it
“Resolved, by the Monroe Coun
ty Union, in convention assembled.
That we refuse to give any indorse
ment to any party or candidate,
either expressed or implied, but
that we hold ourselves free to act
upon our best individual judg
ments, and that if we need repre
sentation before the courts, legis
lature or elsewhere we select our
own brethern to go as a delegated
commission and make our wants
known.”
At 11 o’clock the chairman, S.
|T. Holloway introduced Governor
| Jeff Davis as the “poor man’*
friend,” who would deliver &
speech for the Union. Governor
1 )avis said he was glad to meet the
farming class and give the Farm
ers Union his official endorsement
or to render them any assistance
he could. He discussed the new
state house proposition and spoke
of the “boodlers” being on the
run. He advised the farmers to
keep the union out of politics as it
would ruin the organization. The
farmers and laborers were the salt
of the earth and should stick to
gether. All other classes were
organized, even the “boodlers’*
up there at Little Rock were
united as one.
Hon. W. A. Oldtield of Rates
ville, candidate for Congress, de
livered a short address.
