_F AGITATION IN PICKENS. The Question of "Dispensary" or "No Dispensary" Engaging the People of That County. Pickens. March i.-"Dispensary" or "no dispensary--that is the ques tion that will agitate the minds of 7ickens countv people for several weeks to come. The wcsin of war has been sound ed anld has come as a surprise to ,iianv. as it was not known publicly that an open fight was to be precipi .ated until Sundav. Sunday morning at the Bapti!t church the Rev. D. V. H; -tt preach ed to a large cor<zre!a *on. taking as a text I Cor. 6th chapter. 17th verse: "Wherefore come out from among -heni, and 'ce ye separate. saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean ,hng; and IN will receive you." The :isister had not preached very fa vhen he beg-.-: :o vade into the dis He decla e c - e institutio.3 a ,crea :in of his Satanic Majesty, that no sane man would claim that it was Divine in origin. Yet, he stated that it was a lamentable situation that church-going and church-professing people had become so entangled and mnixed up with this demoralizing agency that they disregarded their church vows and became a reproach to the church. Continuing, he said: "I stand not here today to make a tirade upon the -poor drunkard-I deeply sympathize with him-but I call to witness the -members of this church and every other church in this town and county for the existence of this institution of debauchery, misery and woe in our midst. There are enough church members on the rolls of the various churches of Pickens county to re move this evil, and just here I want to say that at the door of the church lies the creation and existence of the dispensary." The arraignment of the headquar ters of the institution in Columbia, of the legislature for its inaction was severe; in fact the caustic was ap -plied freely all along the line. At the conclusion of the sermon the an nouncement was made that petitions would at once be circulated for the removeal of the dispensary, that the other churches of the town had been asked to co-operate.. In the afternoon at the Methodist church. the pastor, Rev. 0. M. Abney, called a meeting of the offi cers of his church for tonight for ac tion on the matter. There will likely be a public mass meeting one night during the present -week to arouse local interest. WVhile the line of action has not been com pletely mapped out, it is said that every minister in the county will be requested to co-operate by preach ing his strongest temperance sermon and circulating a petition against the di spen sary. The situation in this county is un settled. The dispensary has been here since the lawv was passed about ten years ago. For the first few years its effect was not noticeable, in fact 0 * We desire to thE + and prosperous & * is deeply apprecn for our own. WE take their subscri * We guarantee all Ax< * say.
