The Southwestern Tel. and Tel. Go
who could lay his hand on God
and on man at the sameUme was
answered in Christ. As such a
mediator, being man, He could
atone for man, and being God
his atonement had infinite value.
“Jesus is God with us in sym-
pathy, the world’s great need.
Having touched humanity at all
points, becoming identified with
us in the most humiliating pov-
erty, in the dullesi commonplace,
in the severest temptations, in
the profoundest misunderstand-
ings, in the bitterest opposition,
as well as in our joys, he is God
with us visibly as well as invis-
ibly.
“He is also God with us in our
work. Jesus did not feed the
multitude, Jesus and a little lad
fed the hungry crowd. The di-
vine must work through human
instrumentalities and we are la-
borers together with Him. His
farewell message was, ‘Go, and
lo, I am with you always, even
unto the end of the world.’ This
means both his perpetual pres-
ence and his co-pperative power.
“Finally, Jesus shares with us
in the heavenly inheritance. Our
heaven is to be where he is, ‘I go
to prepare a place for you, that
where I am there ye may be also.’
Our character is to be like his.
It doth not appear what we shall
be, but we know we shall be like
him. Our bodies shall be like
unto his own glorious body.
“To be with Him up yonder
we must have Him with us down
here.”
Republican Caucus-
Several of the leading republi-
cans of this county met Saturday
and laid some plans for the fu-
ture of the party here. Among
other things it was agreed that
the party would nominate a can-
didate for representative from
this district, and that the organ-
ization should be kept intact at
all times, so that effective work
could be done should occasion
require it.
It is highly probable that the
republican party will al*so put out
a full corps of nominees in this
county for the offices, the men
who compose the party believing
that good local organizations are
absolutely necessary to success
in every way.
The members of this party in
Lampasas county are led by
many of our best and most rep-
resentative citizens, and they
believe strongly in the principles
of their party, and in locally do-
ing whatever they can to
strengthen the organization.
The Leader believes it could
name their nominee for represen-
tative in advance of their con-
vention or primary election, but
does not care to do so now. Time
will show what this local work
can do.

At the Baptist Church.
Following is a synopsis of the
sermon of Rev. J. M. Dawson,
deliyered at the Baptist church
Sunday night: Text, Matthew
1:23: “They shall call his name
Immanuel, which being inter-
preted is God with us.”
“This is one of the titles ap-
plied to Jesus which is not offi-
cial, but descriptive,and of all the
name-characterizations of Him is
most suggestive and significant.
The supreme thing of value in
Christianity is not the art which
has clustered around its persons
and names, not the blessed insti-
tutions which it has founded, not
its noble history, nor its incom-
parable teachings, nor even the
making of men and women, but
the person of Jesus. This title
reveals why that personality is
so precious. He is God with us.
Jesus was God with us in the
flesh. The gulf between the infi-
nite God and the finite man was
bridged by his incarnation. In
this way he revealed the Father
to men. No man has seen the
Father at any time, the only be-
gotten son, He hath declared
Him.
“In the upper room, Thomas,
whose spirituality was slow-foot-
ed, exclaimed ‘Show us the Fath-
er.’ Jesus replied calmly, ‘He
Manager Wright has a base-
ball team here from Bertram and
three days will be devoted to
showing them how to play ball.
The local team is in fine trim,
and think they will have
trouble in laying the boys from
the small Burnet county town
out in the shade. Their game
with the Indians has given them
sufficient courage to tackle the
world. The first game is now in
progress, and another will be
played in the afternoons of Tues-
day and Wednesday. If you can
spare an hour of your valuable
time, go out and lend your as-
sistance to the making of attrac-
tions for Lampasas.
W. B. Abney and wife will
spend a good part of this week in
Fort Worth, where they will at-
tend the commencement exercises
of the Polytechnic college, at
which school the Markward child-
ren are being educated. Miss
Ethel will graduate from the mu-
sical department there and the
other children are well advanced
in their studies. Mrs. Markward
and the children will be home the
first days of June, and will spend
at least the summer here.
Wi
have the most complete blacksmith
and woodworking establishment in this
section and keep skilled men employed
to do the work necessary to be done. I
have recently installed a gasoline en-
gine and a number of band, rip and
groove saws and am prepared to do any-
thing in the line of sawing small work,
making brackets, scroll work, etc.
J. H. Tucker and family came
in Saturday night to spend a few
days with Mrs. J. E. Vernor, who
no i ia a sister of Mr. Tucker. He
has recently sold out the Cole-
man Daily and Weekly Voice,
and is now buying some of the
fine lands in Coleman county,
upon which he expects to make
a good profit by subdividing and
selling to actual settlers. He is
one of the few newspaper men
who have succceeded in making
more than a living out of the
printing business.
T. W, Walling and wife, origi-
nal settlers in Travis county,
spent a time here Saturday the
guests of J. P. Word and family.
Mr. Walling is proud of the fact
that he is one of the oldest liv-
ing Texans, and wants to keep
up an organization of the origi-
nals. Such organizations not on-
ly contribute to the enjoyment of
the older people, but also tend to
cement the young into harmony
and good will for each other.
Lampasas county ought to have
an annual celebration and re-
union of the old settlers, embrac-
ing those who have been here
twenty years or more.
W. N. Chamberlain reports that
the hail Friday afternoon was
very severe in his neighborhood,
near old Dybyville, and that
nearly all the farmers in that im-
mediate section as well as Naru-
na will replant their cotton crops
just as soon as the land is dry
enough to plow.

Lampasas, Texas.
Bro. Dawson is spending a part
of this week at Belton, where the
commencement exercises of the
Baylor Female College are in
grogress. Quite a number of the
young ladies from and near Lam-
pasas are in that excellent school.
P. E. Rippy begins life aright
in Lampasas by having the Daily
Leader sent to his home. He re-
cently bought the place occupied
for so many years by W. H. Web-
ber, and is having the house
painted and put in excellent re-
pair.
E. N. Wolf, who was sheriff of
this county for several terms, is
among the visitors here. He is
now making his home at Temple
where he has a position with one
of the railroads. He seems to be
in good health and fine spirits.

Kyle Smith and son Chester,
Eugene Charles and wife and
Walter Patterson and wife spent
a good part of last week on the
Colorado river at what is known
as Ivy springs. They report that
they caught no fish, but that
squirrels were very plentiful, and
but for the fact that rain fell
every day they would have had a
fine outing. They came home
Saturday afternoon.
Richard Patterson, son of W. J.
Patterson, of Adamsville, who
has been in Temple under treat-
ment for appendicitis, came home
Sunday. The young man was
operated upon more than a week
ago and says he is entirely well,
and gives great praise to the phy-
sicians who did the work. His
father came in after him.
The first of the month is prac-
tically upon us again. Should

Mrs. A. J. Northington, has re-
turned to Denison where she and
her husband will make their home
in the future, having moved from
Whitewright, which has been
their abode for ten years or more.
J. C. Skaggs met The Leader
man Saturday and said he was
really “tired of reading the pa-
per,” and after a pause said, “on
a credit,” and handed out a dol-
lar to put his date forward. We
would like to meet about 500 more
people who are tired in that way.
Come right along.

been night operator for the local

son where she will have a posi-
tion similar to that she occupied
here.
