said In our presanoe. But the Ideaofaay
man going off to Presbytery or to any otbei
place to; pray for people at home?In so far si
It may be oontended that such prayers maj
affect them?Is preposterous.
Prayers said at Presbytery may?and
no doubt will?benefit tboee who engagi

more than sermons oan edify, convince 01

A Lendmsr* Gone.
In the death of Alphens E. Leslie, which O"
earred at bis home on Marob 23, 1905, Abbe llle
baa loet a good eltlxen.
The Presbyterian obarob has given up one
of Its most exemplary members.
Mr. Leslie bad passed his three score and
ten years and his life was a reoord of kind.
neas and good deeds.
??
Need of a Be pub 11 can Party.
The Spartanbnrg Free Lanoe thinks that
there la need of a Bepnblloan party In Soutb
Carolina. And from that papers standpoint
of reasoning It would seam there 1b something
In its claim.
Ws would not ourseif quite agree with the
Free Lanoe. Bat we are firmly oonvlBoed
that we baye In tbe Booth no polltloal
platform, except that which Is based upon a
senseless and ldlotlo idea that It 1b the duty ol
tbe Booth to be obstructionists.
The Southern Democracy solidly opposed
tbe Philippines, the Panama Canal, tbe
Ban Domingo treaty. Nobody oan deny that
these propositions are grave and important issues
about wblob there might be booest differences
of opinion. Bat all tbe Booth 1i
solidly opposed to these problems. If tbe
Demoorat* were governed by tbeir intelligence
and their reasoning faculties, ratbei
than party allegiance, does anybody doabt in
tbe general obapter of accidents that they
* woold divide in opinion? Nobody
can believe that every man in the
Booth can be of tbe same mind on every important
questions.
The Drink Bill of Laurent*.
The Associate Reformed Presbyterian eald
In 1U local page last week :
"Laurens Advertiser, March 15. If the Abbeville
Prees and Banner will send a reporter
to LaarenB he will find that large quantttlei
of dispensary liquor are consumed here every
night. II you don't believe It. go to Clinton
Clinton has never had a dispensary and bnn
bad no bars In maDy years. Clinton has 3.000
people, Laurens 5,000 Laurens drinks at lean
50 to 100 times as much liquor a day as Clinton."
The Press and Banner Is like the prohlbl
tlonlaU in one particular. It does not try to
enforce the dispensary or any other law. We
re willing to take the testimony of the Laurens
Advertiser on the liquor-drinking In
that town. Lanrens must be a bad plaoe Indeed,
or else Clinton muet be mighty good.
The people ef Laurens surely are not as blbu
lous as tho Advertiser thinks. It Is true that
liquor can be kept out of no town. The Interstate
oommerce law makes It easy for any man
to get liquor every day. But the estimated
dlfferenoe In the' drink bill of Laurens and
Clinton would prove one of two things, namelv:
That the neonle of Clinton are much
more temperate than the people of Lavrens
or that the police 1b more efficient in keeping
oat blind tigers Id one place than in the other.
' At this distance It would seem that Lauren*
drink* more Uqaor than Greenwood.
Martin F. Ansel, Esq., candidate for Governor,
the papers announce Is against the dispensary.
We do not know exactly what tha
, statement means. As Tar as we are able to
Judge a large per cent, of the opponents of ths
dispensary favor the license system, ProhlbltlOQlsta
as a rule have sense enough to know
that without the cc-operatlon of the license
element they have no chance of electing anybody.
When prohibitionists and the license
men combine they may develop strength
enough to do something. This editor ex
pected to vote for Mr. Ansel, but if be, claimlng
to be a prohibitionists, goes Into thecamp
of the license advocates, we beg to be excused.
'i& r
Ungrateful Charleston.
Vincent Cblooo, of Charleston, the boss op
ponentof the dispensary, was defeated In bla
primary race for nomination to tbe Legislature.
There most be some very ungrateful
or nnsppreclatlve people In Charleston.
