throp has offered $20,000 cash for the property In question. That would reduce the school district's debt by just ^ that amount, and this debt is drawing 6 per cent interest. So it can be seen that this delay is a costly one. Again, that is not all that the controversy is costing the school district. The Record understands that the minority opposition is expecting the school ^ board to pay its counsel fees?in other words, pay the expenses which are or might be incurred by a minority which is fighting the expressed wish of the majority?a rather unusual thing for a fact. Counsel for defendants, however, will fight this queer fcl proposition, and will shortly make a motion to have the bond of the plaintiffs increased. The plaintiffs some time' ago gave a bond for $500 but . counsel for defendants think this inadequate, in view of the fact that the| Rock Hill school district is now losing $100 a month by reason of the delay. as noted above, as well as the fact that this litigation?a needless one. it might be stated?is going to cost a lot of money, and somebody has got to foot the bills. The ques'0 . tlon of witness fees alone will run into ^ hundreds of dollars. The Membership of Smyrna. Following is the roll of Smyrna Associate Reformed church as it stood last Saturday: R. \V.

The Importance of Prohibition Needs to be Discussed. ? Editor of The Yorkville Enquirer: " I wish to thank you for calling attention to my communication of July 13. in an editorial for in doing so you helped me greatly in gaining the object I had in view, namely, more discussion on the subject of prohibition. A Personally, I feel the weight of what you say; but cannot agree with you in every particular. Yes, all laws must have the support of public sentiment, and sentiment is made by experience and disci sion. We have had experience with whisky. Now let everybody talk and reason together. Suppose, to enforce prohibition there should be bloodshed, would not the end justify the means? I am bitterly opposed to war; but does our government stop to consult us about declaring ? war? History will show many instances where war has been declared with much less reason than we have for standing for prohibition. I have no statistics, but I venture to say that W since the opening of the state dispenB sary, more blood has been shed, direct? iv and indir??ctlv than would be shed to enforce a wise prohibition law. Take our civil war. Most of the people of the south thought war justifiable. We were overpowered, disarmed and those who got home felt that rivers of blood had been foolishly shed and that everything was lost. Are we not today enjoying many rights for which we then fought No. we don't look for a proper settlement of this question at once; but let us "keep righteous public sentiment perpetually awake and on its guard." # As to leaders, we shall always need them, but I am not In favor of waiting for them to grow. Give us the best we have and educate more. The fact that York county is not secure in the blessing of prohibition only calls the louder for discussion. If ? other friends of the great cause will speak out I shall say no more, and with best of feelings for The Enquirer. I will close. W. S. Garrison. Rock Hill. S. C.. July 20. 1908. SHARON SHAVINGS. Meeting at Woodlawn?Death of Mrs. E. Nix?The Crops. Correspondence of the Yorkville hnouiter. Sharon, July 20.?A protracted meeting was begun at Woodlawn PresbyfP terian church last night, the pastor, Rev. John A. McMurray. is being assisted by Rev. W. B. Arrowood of ^ Bethel. Rev. Mr. Arrowood preached at the A. R. P. church yesterday morning and his sermon was much enjoyed by the congregation. V Mrs. Elijah E. Nix died at her home on Sharon No. 2, Saturday night at 10 o'clock, as a result of the fall she received on Saturday, the 12th, by which her hip was broken, and a general breakdown incident to old age. Mrs. Nix was in her 82nd year. The funeral took place at Woodlawn on Sunday afternoon, the services being conducted by Revs. J. S. Grier and J. A. McMurray, and was attended by a large number of friends of the family. Mrs. Nix is survived by her husband and three * daughters. Mrs. Albert Robinson. Mrs. J. E. Carroll and Miss Octavia Nix. Crops in this vicinity are in good shape. They have had just about rain enough along as it was needed. Below here, in the Blairsville neighborhood, there is a dry streak and crops are beginning to need rain badly. This is especially noticeable on sandy lands. ? The following published in the London Economist. is attracting much attention throughout England: "Financiers appear to count upon the election of Mr. Taft and regard that certainty as reassuring to investors, but we think it quite arguable that, so far as the American railways are concerned, the Democratic platform * is more promising than the Republican, for a great increase in transit trade would certainly follow the reduction of the tariff and the repeal of duties upon trust-controlled products. Xow that silver has been abandoned by Bryan, the 'sound 4 money' Democrats have rallied to his side, supporting his organization, and he probably can count upon the unit ed support of the Democratic party if he can manage to avoid blazing Indiscretions in the course of the campaign. The chief reason for supposing that Mr. Bryan will win is that no party in the United States ever has survived a financial panic and severe business depression. This is very much our own English experience." AT THE CHURCHES. BAPTIST. Prayer meeting on Wednesday evening at 8.30 o'clock. METHODIST. Prayer meeting on Wednesday evening at 8.30 o'clock.

LOUIS ROTH. Grover Cleveland's Life Insurance. Grover Cleveland carried only $7,500 Life Insurance. When he was mayor of Buffalo, N. Y., in 1876, he took out $5,000 in the Mutual Benefit and $2,500 in another company. He had neglected the matter up to that time. Later he earnestly desired to largely Increase the amount, but on account of having grown to be very much over-weight no reputable company would grant him more. Newspaper reports say he left little or no estate for his widow and orphans. You are probably In a physical condition that will enable you to secure insurance today, but you may not be next week or year. That has been the experience of some people you know. Your procrastination may result in your family or creditors losing: what you owe them. The Mutual Benefit protects families and pays mortgages. How? Ask me. 8AM M.
