Connecticut is wisely resolved to protect woodcock, quail and grouse within her borders, and will not allow them tobe shot or sold in the State for two years. Many other States in the republic ought to follow Connecticut's example. The protection of game birds and of all birds that are not pre datory should be stricter than it is now in almost every State. - ? - ? mm - The building committee of thc Cen tral Presbyterian Church will meet on next Tuesday to select a plan and spccilications for the new oChurch. Work will be begun thereafter as rap idly as arrangements can be made. The committee on subscriptions for the building fund received over $5,000 from the membership of the Church, and their friends will he asked to help increase this amount. The Church will be built according to the sub scriptions received for that purpose. - mm ? - mm- - It is about a year now before can didates for the various State offices will have to take to thc stump and tell the people why their votes should bc cast for them (thc candidates). But, acting on tho principle that it is the early bird which gets tho worm, candidates are already beginning to lay their wires to pull in the various nominations. Perhaps it was the recent senatorial feud which started thc hearts of various candidates to boating at a lively rate. But, any way, there are more actual bona fide candidates out working for nomina tions for next year than ever before. Tho information comes from Wash ington that South Carolina, acting through the Governor and Attorney General, has instituted proceedings beforo thc Commissioner of Internal Revenue to test tho question whether the Stato can be legally required to take out special tax stamps as whole sale and retail liquor dealers under the State dispensary law, and has made a demand upon tho Commissioner for a refund of all such taxes hitherto paid. The State contends that the collection of such a tax is unconstitutional be cause the dispensary is a State insti tution, but thc Federal Government contends that when the State performs a work and assumes direction of an agency which has been and can be per formed by its citizens in an individual capacity, a new aspect arises. The decision will be watched for with muoh interest, and if the Commission ers decides against the State the case will probably go to the Supreme Court of the United States. The people are drifting into the idea that it is not right to tolerate a differ ence of opinion in an opponent in politics : jd other matters. When it is ascertained that a man does not be long to a faction or tho party they up hold, they decido to have nothing to do with him. and withdraw all sym pathy and Bupport, no matter in what avocation thr. individual with whom they may be engaged. Let a man strive to build up his community and there are thoBe who aro ready to pull him down because ho won't see as they see and vote as they vote. Some pos pie will not read an opposition paper, or hear an opposition speakor, while others are ready to go to Washington and lynch McKinley, simply because he does not do as they think he should. This spirit of intolerance is ruinous in its effects and dangerous to good government. It retards the growth of the country and discourages patriotism. It breaks down individual enthusiasm and destroys confidence. It tends toward the disorganization of society and the destruction of Repub lican institutions, lt is opposed to freedom of conscience and in favor of ignorance and despotism. It was this spirit that drove Roger Williams from Massachusetts and caused him to set tle the State of Rhodo Island. It was this spirit that upheld the guilotine and deluged Francein the blood of her ablest statesmen. It was this spirit that drove the Pilgrim Fathers to the rock bound coasts of New England and sent the Huguenots up the Sa vannah River to settle the province of Georgia. It was this spirit that led Charles I to the scaffold and Louis XVI to the guilotine. We boast of our freedom and independence and yet this intolerant spirit pervades the country and sits enthroned around many households in the land. Let us remember when we turn our backs i pon an honest man because we differ with him that we by that aot turn back upou lu? very principies of which vre so loudly boast. An honest man's opinions are worthy of any man's re spect. Let us bc more conservative \iu our views and dealings with our fellowman and make politics a second ary /matter in our transactions with etch other. .

Pruitt, vanished from a world of pain to dwell among the angels of Heaven. Tho little one was eleven months old, and during that time his Buffering seemed unendurable for n little babe so long. All that tender, loving parents and skillful physicians could do seem ed not to relieve his suffering, so the Saviour gently folded the little one in His arms, where he now ia free from pain, and will sweetly rest forever. To the heart broken parents we know it is like tearing the heart from them to take tho little ono who hus BO long nestled in their arms and looked to them for care and protection. Tis hard we know, but wo must submit to the Lord's will, who doeth all things for tho best. Though the sweet little lips that have smiled and made the home sun sh i UL and happiness and the bright little eyes that have looked into mother's and father's face so often ore now closed makes life seem indeed dark and lonely, but knowing tho little one is resting so peacefully you should rejoice instead of weep. Tho littlo one's remains were laid to reston Tues day at 10 o'clock in the Baptist Ceme tery nt Starr, funeral services being conducted by Rev. Mr. Inabinct.

We havn't slept a little bit since Sept. 1st, but have kept things howling at a lively clip, and as a result we have doubled our business of last year, as evidenced by our sales-book. Now, we defy the dullness of Summer, and in making a new recoid propose to make one that can't be beat without hustling. Our Goods are all paid for, and are ours to do with just as we see fit. So, just to liven up the sleeping animals a bit we will throw our entire Stock of newly arrived Summer Slioes On the market at prices that will make our unfortunate competitors foam at the mouth. We are sorry for them, but foaming is mighty good for some folks. They're powerful good and pretty, (the Shoes, we mean,) but they've got to go. We can't bear to be so lonesome during these hot months, and if we can't swell the crowds at our counters one way, we'll do it another. When we say that our Shoes are of the best quality, those who have traded with us the longest know that they are up to the standard. This is the Store you've heard so much about-that you can trade with us safely, even with your eyes shut Don't forget that we are the largest distributors of CORN, HAY, FLOUR, TOBACCO, And everything else people and horses eat If it isn't here it isn't anywhere.
