I happen to l<now something about the people of Kershaw county and it will take evidences of more mental enlibro than "Citizen" ha? displayed to under mind tho manhood of these people ? when they realize what a low esti mate he puts on them by appealing to prejudice about the cotton weigh ing business to dictate a policy for thorn to pursue. Let us analyze the ineonsintency of Home of his statements. In one br?ath lie says the Kershaw people have been outraged hy Lancaster people in the weighing matter and in I he next breath he snya show your manhood and let the Lancaster conn ty people give you a Dispensary. Don't sign any petition ? in other words just plow on."

Part of the Council Imve signed a petition not to r.* inb. any Dispensary. The livHt potition sent out in Kershaw county was presented to 50 men and AS nignod it, and if thoy had an op portunity to vote they would vote it ?>:il of the county. The old Dispen k ry stump that they have been shipping tho tlev i I around ho long ir< fast decaying and tho good peo pU of So*tW Carolina will . inject a Ullle nocain to alleviate tl. ? pain and' extract the last root. Lancaster connty voted out tho Dispensary 8 to 1. and tho town of Korahaw voted 92 against and 2'- in favor of tho Dispensary and the sen timent growing stronger in favor of nn^ump. Not over a half dozen drunk men have boon incarcerated in tho guard house since the election, lines growing less and trade improv ing, "Citizen'' forgot to mention tho big revenue for the schools which is 40 cents a year to the scholar So tho boys could not im bide much manhood from thai source.

It Is not our position that base ball should be sacrificed to sewer age; that the funds collected for the maintalnance of a team should forthwith be appropriated to the es tablishment of a sewerage system.
