This jjapor may not be issued next week till we can learn the result of the election. We would urge the managers to get the news to us at the earliest possible moment. You will confer a favor on us and on our thousands of readers who will be anxiously awaiting news of the elec tion. There surely should be some one at each poll who is interested enough in the result to bring or send us the vote of each }k»1I Tues day night. Our office will Ik* open to receive the news. Li t us have it. This week we give place to the prohibition cause, and shall write no editorials. The cause of prohibition is one very earnestly advocated b> the editor of this paper. It is not a theory of this pai>er. but a practice. Not a person connected with this paper in any way will touch a drop of intoxicating beverage. This can l»e said, we opine, by few news- pajKMs in the country. Therefore, we can consistently, wc think, favor the cause of prohibition. We have time and again refused to run advertisements for whiskey houses, though offered fancy prices. We trust and confidently expect that prohibition will win next Tues day by a large majority, but we want to urge that everyone who favors it will go to the polls and vote. It is the’ duty of every re gistered voter a sacred duty. PROHIBITION RALLY AT COT TAGEVILLL OottageTille, Aug. 9.—The people of Oottageville gave ue an exceedingly pleasant day in the way of a prohibition picnic on Friday, Aug. 0th. Though it was cloudy and threatening daring the entire day, still the rain did net inter* rupt the exercises, and an au- dienoa of fire or six hundred people enjoyed listening to the following speakers: Messrs j D Ackerman, J B Dodd, W E Wil lis, Mr bpratling of Alabama and Rev H J Oauthen of Waiter- boro. ’ The people were all disappoint ed in not having with them the Rev Mr Donahoe of Gharleston and Mrs Armor of Georgia, who had been invited to deliver ad dresses on this occasion. 'O Those who have been so ear nestly working for prohibition are very much encouraged with the present outlook, and will feel, as they cast their vote on the 17lh, that it is a vote for the uplifting and welfare of South Carolina * We mast give proper credit to the ladies of Oottageville for a most delicious dinner, which was served in the churcti yard. They maintained their reputation for preparing an abundant supply of all that is tempting to the ap petite, and of seeing that all present enjoyed it. At four o’clock almost the entire picnic party wont to the beae bell park, where they wit- nsssed a very iurereeting game between Providence and Oottage ville. Piovideoce had played five innings and Oottageyille six when the rain began and the S mm was called off. The soon ng U to S in fetor of Pioyi donee. J. KncAe Dodd. THE TWO PRETTIEST GIRLS IN • THE WORLD And by a most strange ccRcider.ce. they l>oth lived in Laurens. S. C., and are both “newspaper nu n.’’ One is Miss Jessie the idolized grand daughter «if our belovedest extempo rary and brother. * Col. Thomas, Crews, of the ancient and beloved J Laurensville Herald. Miss Colt is a respl^ndently radiant blonde, slight; graceful, animated, genial, and of faultless features and < form. The other is Mrs. Elmore Honey, the bride, child-wife, of the knightly young editor of the Laurens Adver tiser. She was Mias Bellinger, of Walterboro, the daughter of a long and high Episcopal hierarchy, the granddaughter of a man of blessed memory, the Rev. Edmund Bellinger, with whom we walked hand in hand and heart to heart until God called him up higher. Why then shoud we not write thus about these two prettiest little girls in the world? Our pride in them is boundless. Guido Remi died before his time. Had he lived to see Mrs. Elmore Boney, his Aurora, in his “Down" picture, would have had a lovelier face still.—Col. J. T.
