would be contrary to the rule.* and
bydaws of the Anti-Saloon league.
The League does claim the right,
however, to stand on the watchtower
and inform the people of every ap
proach of the enemy.
When then are some of the ques
tions to be settled by the voter in the
coming campaign? For whom
should a good citizen vote to fill an
office of public trust? In making
his decision, the voter can in no case
consider a man of questionable
character. A man w ho is impure in
character cannot stand for purity in
governmental affairs. Then again,
a man offering for public office may
be clean in character, ^et, for po-
accept any corn proa*** at this time. .
We must stick together and set* to it
j that men are elected to public office
who stand with us on this issue. The
last ditch has been reached? The
last charge must be made, and the
enemy routed. We have beea
characterized as narrow , fanatical,
etc., bv the liquor papers and their
friends long enough. We have been
dictated to by our enemies for a
long time. We propose now' to
think and act for ourselves. If w’e
will, victory is ours.

Don’t neglect your liver and kidneys. You feel tired and -*.'orn out, have no energy and little ambition

thev are in South (.'arolina. Tne
ideal of the true prohibitions! is al
ways state-wide prohibition. This is
the end he seeks, and to this end he
labors. But in many states like New
York and others, state-wide prohibi
tion is out of the question, therefore
local option is the only cudgel in the
hands of the prohibitionist for ti e
destruction of the liquor traffic. In
Syuth Carolina no |such eonditiors
exist. The people In thirty-seven
out of the forty-three counties have
unmistakably expressed their wishes
at the ballot box. Some of these
counties have done so more than
once. Only one county last s^m n r
gave a decisive vote in favor of the
dispensary. That county was char
leston. and the liquor element among
the people of CharUston has shown
to the people of the whole State that
they do not regard nor obey the dis
pensary law. On tie first day of
July.of la$t year there were six hun
dred and seventy-six United States
licenses held by men to sell liquor in
South Carolina. Of titse, four hun
dred licenses were held 1 y people in
Charleston county. An examination
of this list will show ih*t a large
proportion of this band of law-break
er* isf’ made up of jieople who are
foreign-born. They lire people who
are not American in spirit, an 1 who
care nothing for American law and
citizenship. It is a conceded fact by-
even liquor papers and numbers of
men who claim to be local optiomts
that another election would prove
fatal to the dispensary in four, if not
five, of the remaining six wet coun
ties. Local option, in South Caro
lina, then, means when reduced to
its last analysis, to take care of the
four hundred licensed law-breakers
in Charleston county. Just here is
where the local option principle, as
applied to the liquor business in
South Caroliea. is a farce. The
scheming politicians and the sub
sidized liquor paper* will harp on
local self-government and thus ap
peal to what they call a Democratic
principle, hut every man who thinks
for himself knows that you cannot
apply Democratic principles to
the liquor traffic. To run the ser
pent out of your own yard .and drive
him into your neighbor's yard is not
brotherly, to •nrtfcnlaast And to
keep a serpent in your own yard for
the purpose of sending him out to
bite your neighbors, is wicked and

HOW YOUR LOCAL PAPER HELPS
YOU AND HOW YOU CAN
HELP IT.
We believe every farmer should
take at least one of his local ot
county papers. If he does not, he
can scarcely expect to keep up with
the happenings of his ow, n"neigkbor-
hood and the doings of his own ac
quaintances, a» d while we would not
hive any reader of ours limit hir-
interest to the things that are going
,n immediately around him. he is
rertainly not a well informed man if
ae is ignorant of these things.
This then is one reason w hy you
should subscribe for, and pay for,
<md possibly *rite for and advertise
n >our local paper. Another reason
s that agoo i paper in any town or
•ounty s a positive Dree in the np-
buildirg of that town or ebunty. A
zood paper is one of the .surest indi
cations of. and the best advertise
ments for, a progressive community;
and it is impo sile for any editor to
make a good ) aper if he does, not
nave the supp ir; of the people for
whom the paper is made.
The local paper may also be a
source of direct financial benefit to
you. To say nothing of what its
advertising columns may be worth
to you, either as buyer or seller,
cases are always arising when it is a
positive saving of time or money to
know just what is being done by
one’s neighbors, or one’s county
officials, or the business men with
whom one has to*deal. Next to a
telephone, a really live local news
paper will do more than anything
else in keeping you in touch with
your local market.
For these reasons, and many others
that might be given, the local editor
has a right to expect your patronage
and your co-operation. In return
there are some things you have a
right to expect of him.
In the firat place, you have a right
to demand that he keep hia paper
elean—That he make it fit reading
matter for your fanyly. If mere
space is devoted to scandals and
murders and aaosatioiial fake stories
than to the really important happen
ings of the day .you not only have a
right, but it is your duty to protest
Them things are not news, though
■agr (diton mm M Uriak tlMMn.
mi uftm pabUSt tkm Umm
You should give the more hearty
support to your county paper if its
advertising columns are clean — if it
refuses to carry whiskey, patent
medicine, and fraudulent investment
advertising. No farmer should sub
scribe for any paper of general cir
culation that carries such advertis
ing, and he has a right to insist that
his county paper shall not only refuse
the more vicious of such advertising,
but completely purge itself of all
such as rapidly as its support will
permit. * ■“
Then you have a right to demand
that your editor tell the news as it
is. He has a perfect right to pre
sent his view’s with all the force he
has in his editorial columns, but
when he presents anything as news
he’must have it just as accurate-
just as fre« ffrom personal or partisan
views—as possible. The editor who
permits his personal or political feel
ings to color his news columns is
guilty of an actual immorality.
A third right you have is to de
mand that your local paper give the
moat of its attention to local happen
ings and local problems. It is the
special business of “Rural County
News’’ to tell what is happening in
Rural County and to aid in this
county’s development and progiefe:
Its views on the tariff or the Congo
slave question may be interesting
and valuable, but it can probably do
more good by giving this soace to
helping have the beck alleys of
Ruralville kept clean, or by inter
esting the farmers of Rural County
in the institute that will be held for
their benefit this summer.
Insist, then, that your pfper deal
with the things of your community,
that it give the local news and help
solve local problems..
Here again your help maybe re
quired. and you should feel it your
duty to let your paper know of any
local event of interest that comes
under your notice, or to uss it as a
means of calling . attention
movement that will make for the
betterment of community
A good local paper ie one' of the
beet ernests a ■nail town or a farm
ing county can have. In its work of
