WEDNESDAY. .JAN. 26. 1910.
Has the Civic League met again?
The Good Road question over
shadows everything else in Colleton
just now.
If someone doesn't mind the l^aw
ind Order League will be in the
same'class as the Civic League.
We agree with the Hon. D. L.
Smith in his b 11 to facilitate the
early closing out of the affairsof the
dispensaries in the dry counties.,
Contributions are coming
mighty singly to the Confedei
Monument fund we are trying to
raise. What is the troubl , friends?
Do you not think we should have the
(Monument? Is there not a little
feeling of gratitude for the unselfish
devotion of the Confederate soldier
>to the principles for which he fought
four long years undergoing ‘hard
ships and privations of which we
know little? Do vou not think it
will make better citizens of our
young men to show them that we do
not forget such deeds of heroic sacri
fice for principle? An imposing
Monument on the most public place
in the Connty the Court House
square will do much to foster pa
triotism and teach history. Friends,
let us not delay, but contribute now^
“Yes, we love you still in Dixie!
You and your Sweethearts, too.
For your sweethearts are our moth
ers.
Can you doubt that we arc true?
Though your ranks now fast are
melting
And the Stare and Bars are furled.
Yet the South will live forever
In the glory of your world.”
We desire to thank that kind
friend who commended us for the
editorials in last issue on the Civic
League and the l.aw and Order
League.
We trust the legislature will pass
the State-wide prohibition bill. In
Colleton we could be having almost
complete prohibition if it were not
for Yemassee and Charleston.

A CAKCIDATE.
The Colleton delegation, particu

with a view to doing something, and
there can be no objection to any of
the bills introduced. If they wish
to immortalize themselves as legis
lators let them pass the road law
proposed in these columns some
time ago. Permit us to suggest,!.

to introduce the bill—* €gW ‘more
