An election has been ordered for the ^Olh of June (o vote on the question of Prohibition or County?, Diepon^ary in Kershaw County. At thp game time an election has been ordered to vote "For Manufac ture" or "Against Manufacture." I have been a citizou of this C<$nnty all my life, and for tlftoeu yoara have owned and run a Distillery on my plantation about two miles from the Oifcy of Camden. I have invested a greet deal of money in it and spent a good portion of my life to build up a good, honest business. I pay a liconso of Ono Tbt usand Dollars to the County of Kershaw and the City of Camden and Bethune. 1 bav<? always tried to obey the lawn of my County and State If you vote "Against Manufacture," yon take my property away from me, in my old age, without paying me auytlrug for it. Would you like to have yonr farm or store or business that you have invested your money in, and worked hard to build up all yonr life, takon away from yob, by my vote and destroyed aud not pay yon J one cent for it? That ie what you j will do to me, if you go to tbe Polls | and vote "Against. Maoufacturo". I want to ask you as a brother oUbizen of the same County, ,not to voto to take my property and bnainess away from me. und destroy it I am at your mercy. If you see fit, you can by your vote, destroy my business, take my propeity without paying for it. and I cannot help it. I do not believe the good citizens will do it. As to how you vote on the ques* tion of Prohibition or Dispensary,-1 have nothing to do with that. That is a queatlon of policy for you to dcoide. You can haye prohibition Lei* iu ibis County, if yon want it, mill not-tckn nrsr nronrrjv avrav from !.'?*?T (t>r no*? whnjg <uiU put til, Uii'tt j I b*To uever sold win. key to j blind-t'gers, nor will I ever do it. ) I have always endeavored to obey M?? ictwh buti* of iiu* oiuie und viie United Sifttea.in (he inaiiAgeinent of Tnyliuelneaa J^ndor tue iavr ae it now stands.cannot eel! to tivy one except tbe County Dlepe usance,and beyoud the' limire of the StaWc.
