Its objWfs are, first "to advance = the interests of Cheraw in a commercial and social way," and secondly, "to encourage friendly re lations among men of different avocations and professions." Every lover of Cheraw will commend and encourage the club for the first of these objects; every p Christian will commend the club for the second. I The club is not only strictly moral, but it may be said to be eminently Christian, Not only p are drinking, betting and gambling prohibited, but one " may not even pay for the games jof another. There can be no ' dancint?. Thfi nlnv rnnmo aim 11 ill not be open from 11 p. m. Saturday night until 9 a. m. Monday morning, so that the Club offers no temptations to stay away from church. Any one intoxiea- _ ted cannot be admitted into the ? building. ? ? The high character and force ^ of the men who are the moving ? spirits of the Club is a sufficient ~~ guaranty of its moral tone and influence. Several of the ministers of Cheraw are members, and thus not only have a wholesome influence, oyer the members, but by coming in contact y with the men on this level are I themselves benefitted by seeing a side of life which is not other- i wise visible, They can preach better sermons if they rub up aga'nst men, and keep in touch - ich all phases of life. Wnite I am writing, may I ask, Why should not the Board of Trade and the Chiquola Club P^jjate? It strikes me that eseT^o; organizations, which ' nave tne same objects and the same men as members, could do more* consolidated than separated. A united front is better - than a divided front. Oner sledge J hammer will drive deeper than two smaller hammers. It is by "a long pull, and a strong pull and a pull altogether" that anything can be accomplished. "Things will move, and things will hum, And croakers cease to whine, When everybody pulls his best, And all will pull in line."

' I The house last night passed le State wide prohibition bill j id the bill providing for the i osing of the several county dis- < ansaries. The vote on these ills was taken after an agreeent between the local optionists , id the prohibitionists. I The passage of these two bills I as not secured until there had 1 sen five days of determined . stmm both sides, and while the < isult was not a surprise, it is 1 anerally believed that no agree- 1 ient would have been reached ut for the fear of the members | lat they would not have been j ile to go home Saturday. 1 The stand taken by the prohi- 1 itionists that the supply bill ^ ibuld not pass until the prohi- r. ition bill had been disposed of as dropped and the position iken by the local optionists that lere would be no vote on the rohibition bill before Saturday . as receded from. j Thus both sides conceded < lints, but not until the bill had ' saohed a stage when it was im- ' issible for it to pass the senate less the members stayed over i ext week.

It became known early in the torning session that there would b an agreement reached, and le vote was not a surprise to < ther side.
