recent communication appeared in his paper in which the statement was wade that a certaiu Baptist Sunday School Convention or Association had confered the degree of UI DI upon a very beloved brother The brother who was thus mistakenly and igno rantly honored is a dear personal friend of the editor of this paper He is a good man a useful minister of the iron pel and is well known in his State Nevertheless neither a Sunday School Convention nor an Association can confer the degree of D D upon any otc however much it would like to honor a favorite minister We also learn that an other good brother baa been honored by mistakenly receiving the degree of D D from a nurse tiaiuiug school Just think of it This is not the first time we have hoard of a Baptist issociation conferring the degree of D D upon a preacher We are pained to think that any of our people are to ignorant as to believe the degree can be so easily obtained The degree has been bo recklessly conter red by certain colleges rue by Negroes that it has resulted in to cheapening the honor as to lead any small crowd of ignorant Negroes to believe that they too can confer it Alas to what a depth this h uored title has fallen when a Negro baptist Asseciatiou and a nurse training school have umertak eti the I learned business of conferring Iit Our people are woefully ignorant ab to lthe power to confer honorary title aud we take occasion here to give a little information about It 1 he degree of D D iu a literary title and can only bt conferred by a char lei ed literarv Institution that has re ceiv d ouch power to confer degrees fi om the legislature of its tale he degree of D U can only be properly couferrod upon n man of experience whose life has neen eminently or con spicuously useful whose ability as a religious teacher is widely reoguize and whose training along literfry lines has at least been respectably To confer this degree upon wen who cannot spell some of the commonest English w rds who cauiot construct gram matically an ordinary sentence and who is profoundly Iignorant of theology is rediculoua to intelligent men We hpe our brethren wil not be ieceived in this matter and make themselves laughing stocks amoVig i i telligeut and sensible men Be it un derstood that the trustees only of a le gaily chartered literary institution that has received its power to con er lit lary and honorary degrees rrom the stste legislature can confer the degree of D D or any outer literary titleThere are some fraudulent socalled colleges or institutions that are making merchandise of honorary degrees They exist only to make dupes out of preachers who are hankering and dy ing after literary degrees that they do not deserve or cannot receive from any reputable institution of learning One II Bethany College of North Carolina used to grind out by the car load A Bs- A Ms and D Du The quid Bethany College cousisted of a wan his wile aud au tiier assistant The head of the school could not write a brier u tics without misspelling ordinary En gush words But he could confer hon orary degrees to anxious brethren al ways for a monetary consideration u Bethany College Is now no more and brethren no louger receive honor ary titles from that defunct old will But the successor of Bethany Col legj is now iu the State of Indiana There are one or two fake alleges or iiidtitutotis in that state that are teak lug merchandise tint of the feverhn anxiety of some Negro preachers to appear greater than they are by weal tug the title of It D W warn our brethren agaiuut the foolish wealing of a title that will make them ridiculous amuck intelligent men as soon as the discovery is made that it was oouferred by bogus iudtituiiona thai confer it only for money and never on account of real merit Intel ligeJt men will respect one far wore who never wears a degree thau to which he is 110 entitled No institution that values ita good name cau afford to confer literary degrees except upon wen who concedely deserves them Souh Car sties Standard KYFIt will no doubt I1e of great interest to the brethren to hear a word from the following places concerning the taptist interest and as I have bad the pleasure to visit them 1 beg spacu iu our paper for the following i I left Somerset Monday October 5th for Nicholaeville where Rev C C Go in+ is adding forth and dolug i great work for the Baptists From there I went to Lawrenreburg to visit Rev W J M Price in a two weeks financial meeting which was a great success and it will doubtless make those who are in terested in the work In this state glad to j know that Rev Price Is one among the most able pastors iu the state and I am pleased to know that the church in this place is In better condition now than it has been for many years These people love Rev Price if we are to judge from the many good things they brought him and his wife to make their hearts glad They shoo know bo to make it pleasant for visitors and pay them well for their service May God bless this pastor and peopleI Lawrenceburg for the Queen City of tho Mountains Somerset aud spent one day with my oxen people and then left for Parts Ky to visit Rev H B Webster D D in an eight nights finan cial meeting I arrived in Paris Mon day October i9th and found Dr Webster at the station awaiting me and we had a hearty handshaking for we were glad to see recd other He carried me to the b autiful parsonages on Sycamore street where mamma Webster was al prised of our presence and came with out stretch ed arms to great me as she use to do when I was but a lad in the city of Ncholasville and ofcnurso It goes with out flaying that with mamma and papa we wanted for nothing that would make iae happy while with them For eight night I preached as the spirit Rave me utterance and the Lord was J t with U1l Sunday was a great day andII we had a great time both spiritually andII QnancUlly I There were three clubs the Simpson j Joshua and the Green there clubs had I wurke only two nights each but with t great credit to themselves and cbrohII and after a day of spiritual feasting and mouey gathering the church announced ii collection of atli8 73 which amount lift tbo church out of debt pnt jso 00 in the pasturs pocket and 33 al in bank So by this report yon may know that DrI Webster is doing great things in P ris with credit to himself and honor to the dennicJ option May the Lord continue to bless this great and good man Rev H Nutter offered his resignation as pastor of the Zion Baptist church amid the sobs and tears of congregation Rev Nutter is an able man abd has doue a great work In Paris buildings ohmich that iis a credit to our denomination an4 ve dont know where Kev Nutter willI go but any church may consider herself blessed to have such a man as pastor Monday October 26th I left Paris for Louisville taking with me my neloe who entered our school I found Dr Puree well and in his usual good humor met a tins lot of students all seemed to be filled with the enthusiasm necessary to ac complish their various aims in life May God continue to bless our work in all parts of the state W H WIUIAHB GREAT MEETING AT EMINENCE October the 26th 1908 was a great day iu the Eminence Colored Baptist church It was the reopening aud rededica tion of the house I call it rfdedication because I suppose the foundation had been dedicated before The sumo was pi taohed by the writer all seemed pleased with the effort They had torn the house down and built it again It is a very beauty ul edirice I do no know of any church building in a wall town in this district thai is more attractive than this one They have doue a neat piece of work there and I taluk that RevWiuiow and his peopled lJerve encouragement for their suc cess They are working now had to I pay off all their indebtedness on the house and pastor Wiuiow and ofticeis I tilk with assurance that they have e erything under co troll to the extent that uu one used entertain any Lea about

say one el that is trying to do a goou work ratnei encourage them than to attempt to do anything to impede th1r pro guess in u laudable enterprise 1 must say that the brethren and sisters of the cnurch seemed to be highly elated and outhUHiAstio over the work that they have accomplished in so short a tim There were several members wale a female that expressed themselves Sunday night which sho A ed their high appreciation of Dr WlnroW as a great leader I did not get all of their names t Rev Murphy was the first he is iu the I work aud Iis determiaed to stand byIII the pastor end chinch and In his re marks feelingly gave some good advice and amongtheThomas Kemp Ir ati8 and Henderson made appropriate addresses and spoke in a feeling and becoming strain of what has been dolts and looked forward to a greater time in the future since tbey bad surmounted some very Nervy opposition There were a few sisters I that had something to say I din not get all of their names yet one sister I noticed invited all the dear brethren and sisters to return to their allegiance and all have peace- I must say they they turned out nice ly and taking all things in consideration did well in collecting money for it bad not been very long since they had had a rally The members claim the Lord tJOB Dr Ward away to put him in a heavier field because of his experience and ability and sent the Rev J B Winnow to lead them in his stead and that the pastor and wife have both shown themselves equal to the great task and they say of them that they are socia le genuine and pleasant to all ForI these qualities they are under obliga tion to love them and help them in their sacred work that God has laid upon them to do 80 they gave him help in the basket acd in the storehouse abundantly I hope the sweet relation that seems to exist may con tinue We all admit that the pastor an sister Wiurow are two well mated companions with four sweet little ofIWinrow ii a careful man and minister of the gospel It- emsse to me that his disposition is to abnse none but try to win all for his Lord and Master As to his scholarly ability that is not and cannot be questioned or doubted Though a young man

responsibility realizing that under 3even it rests with us ourselves to show that we are worthy to use aright what has thus been intrusted to our care MUST NOT VAlI In no other place and at no other

YeIIe + + rALUHADY the question ofrestrict ed suffrage has been raised in this state and there is but little doub- that it will be considered and some measure adopted at the coming ses sion of the Legislature Kentucky has always provided in its constitution for unrestricted suffrage and i is hardly possible to secure an amendment to the constitution thant instrument at an early date but th Legislature may in adopting amend ments to the Election laws pass some measures that will to some degree restrict suffrage Whether this can be done simply to reac colored men remains to be seen be cause the claim ot eliminating the ignorant from the exercise of suffrage will reach many more than colored voters The ignorant white man in every state where restricted1 suffrage has been adopted has suf fered and it is only by the use n- gra t I dfather and understanding clauses and other subtefuges that many more who are just as ignorant as their colored neighbors have no met the same fate The intelligentt Negro has not objected to measur es that have been adopted for th peoplband he recognizes that the ignorant and vicious are not the elenent that should control public affairs but h insists that an ignorant and vicious white man is no more competent to control than is a vicious and ignor ant black man nnder exactly the same conditions Massachusett- and other Northern states have restricted suffrage but that suffrage iis basedabsolutely upon condition an I not upon color uid for that reason it is just and equitable and whe Kentucky is ready to adopt such law it will find the intelligent in dustrious and law abiding colored1 citizen standing ready to accept i without a murmur when it does not discriminate against one class of its citizens and in favor of another and its provisions impartially and hon estly enforced IF evtr there was a time when a party should contest an election iin this city that time is now for never were greater outrages perpretrate- against decency honesty law and order than was done in the recent election in this city The election in many cases was a mere farce and the result was not the honest expression of the people and with deep regret we are forced to admit that colored men were the dupes and tools of vicious white men iin this great wrong against society Colored men who did not register themselves and consequently were not voters were taken from poll to poll under surveillance and protec tion like so many cattle and voted in the name of both illegal and legal1 voters A party that could make allies of thugs gamblers andcrap shooters for such a purpose and un der such circumstances should never say a word about disfranchising the Negro for in this case as in nearly every case of wrongdoing they are either following the example or the instruction cf some white men who use them to enrich their pockets or JII extend or prolong their power The good of our city and the good of our people demand that this matter be sifted to the bottom and that the guilty be punished Every good citizen should give his moral and financial support to the Republican Campaign Committee in this good work THE next denominational day in Kentucky will be Educational Day whichoccurs on Nov 25 the anni ver slry of the opening of Stale University This day has been es tiblished by the General Associa tl in for the purpose of raising the money to conduct its educational work also to commemorate the anniversary of the opening of State University The day has been successfully observed for several years and it has

what the man under its influence does The wine bibber scoffs at all that is serious and holy and ridi cules all th t is noble Strong drink is rngiiiKIt leads to brawls quarrels murders How bitterly true this is ran be seen in any issue of a daily paper The real meaning of the word translated mocker iis scorn but it is true also that wine is the greatest mocker in the world By its stimulating property it IlL kes a man feel guod fcei that he iih sure to have health ant1 happiness and success It mocks him as the mirage does the travelI er in the desert Whosoever iis deceived thereby is not wise All men must know from the results tc others of drinking that wine and strong drink bring woes innumer able and a wise man would not be deceived into believing that the re sults to hun of drinking till be dif ferent from those to other people U Be not am ng winebibbers among riotous eaters of 11ash Eating gluttonously is the idea which is brought out in the next verse Gluttony injures greatly though nothing in comparison to the harm to winebibbers Drow siness shall clothe a man with rags Referring to the stupidity andj sleepiness which comes both from drinko andgltittony This is one of the most gra phic off descriplii ns A drunkard can set himselfas others see him in this mirror The chapter is the advici of a father to a son warning hin against the perils of the society iin which he would find himself in life I Vho hath woe i 1 i7fo hath sor rowThe Hebrew words trans lated woe and sorrow are interjec tions Who hath oh Who hath alas As strong description as ilI1 of woes too great for human Ian guage They are many as well as5 great Woes of body and oi mindjI and woes unutterably unreasonab l because they are brought upon a man by his own senseless and de liberate folly If a man had never seen a drunkard and it he was made a confirmed sot by one drinking one might have pity and patience But men begin drinking withwarn ing examples all round them and iit is only by continued drinking that they become confirmed drunkards Who hath contentions toturik ards are quarrelsomewhich is the idea here They have contentions also between their appetites and their consciences contentions with thoso who would turn them from their evil ways a contention with Godand his lawaWho hath babbling The most intelligent man talks silly when under the in fluence of liquor Drunkards re veal secrets also The word also means complaintscomplaints cff his circumstances of his fellows against God Who hath wounds without cause Fighting on slight provocatiou which would not have moved him had he been sober 4 They that tarry long at the wine Men drinking all nightt They indulge in sprees which last sometimes for weeks They that go to seek mixed wine Go to saloon in modern language an drink wines made stronp by drugs Mixed drinks cause speedy intoxii cationAll sorts of poisonous things are put into the liquors of the present day and make them more dead ly by far than the liquors of the same name of fifty years ago Lcok tot thon upon the wine whet it is redThe wines of Palestine 1 were generally redand red rfr i b t J Li tJliJ wine was esteemed most The com marcl is not to put ones self in theII way of temptation Do not even look upon strong drink stay wayI from the places where yon rill be tempted When it giveth his color in the cupIt might he well orII the benefit of scholars who do not often1puzzj his in such cases in the Bible for the teacher to explain that when our version was written the pronoun its had riot been introduced inGI the language His was used as the neuter Possessive as wellas the ii iInlrculitte iI Fur colour the Hebrew is eye referring to the sparkling of the wine It is as though the cup had an eye with which it glanced at the drinker with a fascination he did not resist When it moveth itself arinhtGoes down the throat sniiothly and pleasantly One who knew nothing of tne terriblenature off strung drink might be deceived by the color and the sparkle of the wines as a child by the lattles of the snake Avoid the beginning of drunkenness by total abstinence Not only refrain from touchingbut even from looking upon it A man vho dues this is safe and he alone hA the last it biteth like a ser pent Whise poison is deadly Phu East is greatly cursed with poisonous reptiles some r I which Ire beautiful in color And sting eth

strange tOUIiILicentiousness is a con tant companion of drink The words also mean strange things a refiTfucL to the horrors of delirium rremciis Thine heart shallutter perverse thingsThe ttord perverse comes from the verb to turn things upside down A drunken mans idea of right and wrong are contuse he will utter voids he would not dream of when sober His words are confused also and stammering How a man who ha ever seen another drunk and seen what an utter fool he made of him selfcan drink is one of theYster ies of sin As1 he that licth down in the midst of the sea Commentators differ as to the meaning of these 1words They may refer to the un consciousness ot one who is in the depthof the sea hopeless or help less or to one tossed about on a maen is compared too ne who IS drowns or drowning who is cut off from all his former pursuits and interests iin life and has become unconscious off surrounding circumstances There may be a reference to the rolling unsteady gait of the drunkard but thit is doubtful Or as he that licth upon the to of a mast A place of the great est danger where no man in his senses would lie down In just sach deadly danger is the drinking man and his fully is greater than that olt the man lying down on the masthead In the next verse the drunkard speaks He is vaguely conscious of the things which had happened during his carousals They have stricken me and I was not sick i they have beaten me and I felt ii- fnotThis it is the inebriates con temptuous answer to the admoni tions of those who warn him of sic ness and wounds He has been beaten but he felt no bruises It wa3 but the temporary results of aI frolic There is no occasion for being troubled Advice and warning are of little use then The very drinking habits dull the couscience and burden the heartPeloubet- d I When shall Jawake1 will see 1 it yet asaitNature forces him to sleep offa debauch but he re grets the time he must spend iin peniteIrat and ashamed he is anxious to get to drinking again as soon as possible The Bible does not favor the sentimental view that the drunkard is the poor victim of others who u r t are the guilty ones The Bible represents him as a criminal and a vtry vile contemptible and harden ed one A little m ire Tiplnral talk to drinking men would he a good thing and a great deal less of coddling sympathy Lexington M and D Meeting
