RECEPTION AT KINGSTRE1 .... sjHas Been Prohibitionist and Mcni her of Baptist Church Since Karlv Youth. Successful in Business. 1 i ? !: Special to The State. Kingstree, April 15. ? Whei the news of the selection by th ProhihitionistK of Hon Joel I > Brunson for gubernatorial honor reached Kingstree, there was gen eral rejoicing among the citizen of his home town. While it lui been said that the nomination o Mr Brunson was somewhat of j surprise to the people of the Stat . it was not at all so to I.is friend I here who wanted anil expected t< . see him made the leader of th Prohibition forces in South Caio | Una. Joel Kdgar Brunson was bori in Sumter county fifty one year ago and as was said in the conven ' lion last night, ho has been a Pro hihitionist from his birth. IB j has served longer in the capacity of grand chief templar than nm ' other man in the State. Whet 1 he took control of the (rood Tetn plars in this State in 18h0 tin organization had a membership o a little over 400 and when he de clincd to he reelected to the posi tion of chief templar three years thereafter, the fourth time he ha< been offered the place, be b^ earnest and organized effort had it: his organization 4,f>4'J members, and had paid off a debt that had been given him by the organiza tion and had several hundred dol lurs in the treasury of the Good Templars of the State For the past twenty live years Mr Brunson has been one of the most prominent advocates of Prohibition in The State and a more worthy champion no cause could possibly have. lie is a man who has always had the courage to speak his convictions and has his whole life fought for prohibition straight and simple, with no compromise whatever. .Mr Brunson is a man of won dcrful intellect and broad knowledge and ho has few peers in the knowledge of parliamentary law. He has been "ailed upon to proside at almost every prohibition convention or other body that he has been a member of for several years past, and he is well known all over the State us an earnest and effective worker. The management of his privato business atfairs has shown him to be a man of undoubted judgment in business nmll? * l- - 1 ...uucin uini ue mis never been known to fiu! in a single undertaking that he lias attempted. For yearn lie lias successfully operated at Sumter one of the largest and most prosperous sash, door and hlind factories in the State and his lumber factory at Kingstree is ono of the largest in the south. By that knack and energy which knows only success, Mr Brunson has accumulated considerable money and he has devoted considerable mean- to the cause of prohibition nd th > lifting of his fellow men.

He is a man of unusual s mental grasp, of noble <pialities and resolute purpose and when call led upon to defend any right prin3 ciplo he is always ready to respond. ; Mr Brunson has been an active ^ and influential member of the | Baptist denomination of South q j Carolina since his youth ami lie f' is honored and revered wherever his name is known, lie is ! the man of all men prominently s I fitted for the position for whieli 1 he has been suggested and he will r make a winning tight.

Ilou Joel R Hrunson' the next ! governor of South Carolina, arI rived here, his home, tonight. Ho was met by a large crowd at the depot and there was great cheering and an immense demonstration. Mr Hrunson was met by a committee consisting of ' Messrs Chas .1 Eosesnc, Louis J Hristown, \V \Y Grayson and G 1* Nelson, and driven lip in ,a carriage accompanied by a great i crowd, cheering all the way to Barr's hotel, where he was met I by a larger crowd and renewed j cheering. Mr Hrunson was introduced by Mr Eesesne and made a short talk to his friends which was received with applause. At I the conclusion of the speech Mr Bristow was called. Ho simplv announced that a Prohibition lea 1 gue would bo formed which was j then done, a strong Membership being enrolled. A Htendy stream of telegrams has ?)een coining in to Mr HrunHon during the entire day from all parts of the State, congratulating him and the Prohibition party.
