r is to be fought on a plan of Esdraelon, in the valley of Jehosephat, in Palestine. There is no point in the present European war that answers to this loT"* cation. 2d. The purpose of the battle of Armageddon is the destruction of Jerusalem, and the wresting of the land from restored Israel. The present war has no such designs. Israel has not been restored to Palestine, nor is she in possession of Jerusalem. She will be in control of both Jerusalem and Palestine during this terrible predicted ' M battle. ? 3d. My third reason for denying the present war to be the one spoken of in Revelation is, that the battle of Armageddon is to be composed of the nations that once formed the Roman empire, federated under one head, viz, ' Anti-Christ or Man of Sin. The Roman empire was composed of those nations immediately surrounding the Mediterranean sea. The Triple Entente of Europe is composed of Russia, France and Great Britain. Russia did not belong originally to the Roman empire, so before the battle of Armageddon could take place, Russia would have to withdraw. In the Triple Alliance existing in Europe, composed of ^ Germany, Austria and Italy, we see another reason why this is not the battle of Armageddon; for Germany was no part of the Roman empire, while the two latter nations were. So it would be necessary for Germany to withdraw before their could be a battle of Arma geddon. In the case of the present war ^ Germany is the aggressor, so to have a battle of Armageddon, the entire base of war must be changed; the objective would have to be changed and two nations, at least, would have to be eliminated. No, this cannot mean the battle spoken of in Revelation, for that battle is to usher in and culminate in the second coming of Christ. His coming will be the climax of the battle?will wit^ ness his appearance in person, where V he will stand upon the Mount of Olives and there will begin a thousand-year reign of peace. Personally I believe that the world will never be at peace absolutely until he comes. The vision of Isaiah, recorded in the 65th chapter, will never be realized by peace protocols. Jesus is coming. Over 300 times in the New Testament His second return is spoken of. When is He coming? I do not know; neither have I time to listen to the man who teaches that he knows. Seventh Day Adventists and Russellites purport to know. Scripture says that no man knoweth the day nor Vthe hour. May I briefly give you my convictions as to the cause of the war? They are these: Lust for power on the part of Germany, and a decadent religious life. In a letter last week to Dr. Broughton of London, I expressed the conviction that the universities of Germany had t made possible the present war. Their leacning aiong mr unco >nBU<. cism, atheaism, rationalism and the deification of man's mind over the spiritual and supernatural, has during the past thirty years robbed Germany of her religious consciousness and with this shell of religious formality, in which there was no abiding presence of God, there was offered the opportunity for the reappearance of the savage in man. We may safely say that less than half a dozen persons, drunk with the lust for power, have thrown all Europe into a seething caldron. I believe that following the war will be the # world's greatest revival and it will be world-wide in its extent, for men and nations are going to rebound from brutal force and savagery, back to God and the spiritual. 4 LOCAL LACONICS Election Commissioner Resigns.

Tom Holly, colored, shot and instantly killed his brother Jerry Holly at the former's home on the Judge K Moore place, two miles beyond Brattonsville, Friday night. From the evidence takes at the inquest, it appears that the negroes had been on bad terms for some time. Friday afternoon Tom Holly invited his brother Jerry who lived on a nearby farm, to come over ^ and take supper with him, saying he ^ was going to have "beans and Irish potatoes" for supper. When Jerry came he found Tom had nothing to eat. He then began teasing his brother about his lack of provisions and words led to a fistic encounter. Another brother separated the two, and Jerry thought the fuss was over. Tom, how-1 ever, went into another room, secured a single barrel shotgun and with the remark, "I am going to kill the fired, the load taking effect in the left eye and blowing part of the head off. Tom Holly then made his escape and has not been cuptured. After the Blockaders. The blockaders in the northwestern section of York county are continuing to do business, but every now and then they are temporarily put out of business. Last Tuesday, Sheriff Brown, in company with Magistrate yuinn. Constable Hedricks and Chief of Police Bendiman of "I?? o i,1*i nt about two and a half miles north of at the King's Mountain monument. ? When the sheriff and his party arrived about 5 o'clock in the afternoon, the only person in sight was just dropping over a distant hill, all the moonshiners making good their escape. The furnace with the outfit ^ was still very hot. but the manufacV turers of the blockade stuff had evidently gotten a straight tip on the raiding party and pulled the hot still, cap, worm, etc., from the fastenings and got away with the outfit. However, the raiders found and destroyed 1 "between twelve and fifteen hundred gallons of beer in the "vats," and also twelve to fourteen gallons of "redeye" in buckets and kegs, about the place. Over in Cherokee county on Saturday, Sheriff Thomas and a party of deputies, captured and destroyed a stilling outfit not far from King's Creek. The three men operating the outfit when the posse arrived, made good their escape, but are known to the officers and will probably be arrested later. About 500 gallons of beer and a large quantity of mash, malt, etc., were destroyed. MERE-MENTION Col.

Lever Blocked by Henry.?After a stubborn legislative fight and much filibustering on the part of Congressman Henry of Texas, which lasted throughout the entire day, the Texas congressman, with the aid of a mixture of Republican and Democratic votes, succeeded late this evening in preventing Representative Lever from having the house pass the Hoke Smith warehouse bill, says a Washington special of yesterday to the Columbia State. As soon as the house resumed its session today Mr. Henry began his filibustering tactics and it soon became evident th it he did not propose to allow the Smith bill or any other cotton measure to receive consideration until his own bill should be passed. When Mr. Lever got the Smith bill on the way. there were frequent interruptions and delays on the part of Mr. Henry, who, taking advantage of technicalities, made points of order against it calling about every 30 minutes for a <|Uoruin. This consumed about three-fourths of th*- day. When Mr. Henry took the Moor he declared that the hill was "reeking, saturated, intoxicated, with federalism" and , that instead of being called a bill to ' license warehouses under government inspection it should be called a bill to ' I abolish state warehouse laws. This so aroused Mr. Lever that he made a fiery reply and assailed Mr. Henry rigorously for his attitude on this measure. As the debate proceeded the situa:ion became exceedingly warm and :he remarks which passed between wme of the members were not all of :he friendliest kind. In fact, since Mr. Henry has taken a stand that he will let nothing take the place of his bill and that he will filibuster against idjournment until he passes it, much lard feeling has come to the front imong the Democrats. As the matter now stands, with adlournment probably only ten days off, t does not seem likely that Mr. Lever ,vi 11 be able to do any more with his lill at this time and should he fail the blame should be charged to Mr. Henry's account. ?

Regarding the Monument The Monument is the sole product of man which is expected to exist, without change or repair, for all Hmo?hovnnd thn mcmorv that we cherish In our hearts, which is only as long as the span of life. It may help to form a record, but it Is erected as a tribute of love to those who have passed "to that bourne from whence no traveler ever Returns." As such, let it be a thing of beauty, not dark and somber, but bright and cheerful; not typifying earthly sorrow, but symbolizing undying love. And as architecture is brought to us from the past by the tombs of the ancients, so let us pass on to those in our steps, some worthy expression of our conception of beauty. PALMETTO MONUMENT CO. JOS. G. SASSI, Prop. Phone 211 Yorkville, S. O. Unseen, Unknown Future.... Many years ago the late Charles A. Dana wrote a letter to a little girl who asked if there was a Santa Claus. Here are some extracts from it: 'Ye?, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus; he exists as certainly as love, generosity and devotion exist. * The most real things In tile world are those things that neither men nor Children see. You may tear apart the baby's rattle and see what makes the noise Inside, but there Is a wall covering the unseen world which not the strongest man nor the united strength of all the strongest men can tear apart. Only faith, fancy, poetry, love, romance, can push aside the curtain and view t)ie glory beyond. Is it real? Ah, Virginia, in all this world there is nothing else real and abiding. No Santa Claus? He lives and lives forever." "The.e is a wall covering the unseen," there is a wall covering the future. and those beautiful sentiments, "love, generosity and devotion," de- . mand that provision be made for that unknown future. No better provision can be made than by means of a life insurance policy in the Staunch Old Mutual Benefit. SAM M.
