BROWN SUMMIT, Oct. 1.—As
members of Rev. Mr. Mammy's
congregation we desire to enter a
protest against the character of
tlif sermon preached by him at
this plaoa last Similay. We al-lude
to that i>ortion of his remarks
in commendation of Mr. Stafford's
candidacy for sheriff in this county.
We deem it inappropriate in a
minister to plead in behalf of a
politician, and especially so when
said politician is a Republican, and
nine tenths of the congregation
arc Democrats. .Mr. Stafford must
l>e in a desperate straight when it
becomes neeeesary to resort to
Bach a subterfuge to obtain votes.
The pulpit is a holy place, and
apan from the exception noted
Mi. Mahoiicy's sermon was excel-lent
and appropriate. This is the
opinion of
MANY VOTERS.
