'Twas ever thus e can't be satisfied no matter what be weather is, "hut never mind the eather so the wind don't blow."z Capt. Geo. B. Aull, of Pomaria, pent Monday in town. .Mr. Editor. we are not like your Vheeland correspondent. We are ot going to ask your opinion on a ubject and then go on and announce hat so far as we are concerned we re going to do that which we want to o. We have ~too high a regard for he editor's opinion to ask it and then urn around and tell him that we don't are for it, that we are going to do ust as we are going to do, his opin )n to the contrary nevertheless not ithstanding. No we are not going r cut ourself off from the opinion of ood men and when we ask it we :ant to be in position to accept it. To our mind the minds of 99 per ent. of the voters are already made p just as our friends above was and 11 this ado about discussing the ques ion is to befog and becloud the issue, nd as far as possible muddy the wa er all that it can be. To our mina he time of decision on this question ,f the dispensary was when the in ividual took upon himself the vows f the church and now is the time for ction for church members. Those ;ho are not church members are not ncluded in the above remarks, as hey are only addressed to those who ave caken upon themselves the ob gations of a church member. We rould say in this connection that if he church members of Newberry ounty will live up to the promises hat they made their God and the ongregation of which they became member there is no question as to what their position should be and we ill say will be.
