RU LING TOGETHER AS A FACTOR IN A TOWN'S GROWTH. What is llie ma'ter willi the ?f our town getting t"j#?tfier ? In past years that was *je of the strong favors, but of )*xi there lias b "en too much dis > i-ion, too much silent Unork ?jr. Let in* cut out tli!?t kind o v.i.- '.ness.

We heartily sympathize with i, esteemed contemporary.? V.i know what it is t-> work for .ii * promotion ol tlie general ?,v"fare of a community where f"' people are more or less divider'. That has been one of Lan toier's troubles, but, lortunate'\ MV the town, it has ill uia^ed to r"k<4 substantial p ocr? s^ in .< fce of a 'ack of c ncert ol action the i>art of <??ir ciliz ns.? fc"ck Hill, loo, seems to have .r nle some progress under sitni ?\r niffi mllies?i: has at lea^t iwvu.nod some how or oilier to] *< 1 hold of <i htr?et sprinkler.

The Effort to Enforce Prohibition in Lancaster County. (iroenwo'id Journal. In Lmcister county, a white 1 man wm convieied of selling li quor, and the sentence of the . court was to pav a fine of $.">()() or serve one year in the penitent arv. ile is sorv:nir his sentence, hui an effort i* heimr made to nave the governor portion htm on ti e pi ? that he is an old | sold ? r. and for divers masons. We are glad to see I hat I he ^ Laiicns'er No a s comes out in a si rung editorial, which will be . lonnd elsewhere in Ibis paper, against granting the pardon. The position justly t ken that . if lit" man Wore an ignorant j negro, the protest against the j pardon need not he so strong, ( tit for the very reason that he . is an intelligent white man, he should he made to pay the pen- | altv. t Not only does The News take the matter tip, hut the anti- j whiskey league rn ikes a strong . presentation to the governor of Us siil<- o; iho q i shon.

The grand jury of the i, federal circuit court in session at 3 Nashville, Tonu., has indicted c about eighty fertilizer manutact- t urers lor alleged violations the r anti trust laws. Among those to 1 he prosecuted are some South e Carolina concerns. I One of the most important measures passed at the present session of Congress is the hill making 'ax-free denatured alcohol. Its passage means much to 1 he industrial interests ol lit*' con ill ry. Denatured alcohol, ( vliieli is or lin <ry alcoliol render- ( <1 unfit for use as a beverage by ( mixture with some denaturing \ material, is sai 1 to be much safer | >ut where the law is enforced as II other laws shouM he, it is a erv decided success. We are lad to see there is a strong rowing sentiment in favor ol iving those who violate the vhiskev laws just punishment or so dotntr. In such ca*es there hould ho no distinction on amount of race or previous condiion, unless forsooth it be to nake it tighter on the white nan who stoops so low as to mirage in audi di-resputahle )usiness. \ Lancastrians Successful Newspaper Work in Chicago. , As noted in The News at the ime, Mr. ,U. .1 t'jp'or, a hnn rastrian who h ? a hieved disanction in the fi Id of journal >111, some weeks ngigive up h iterative position on tie Angusa Chronicle to accept -,\ t ette* ne in Chicago.
