. r . V OUR COF APPOSED TO !I>ISPI:INSARY. Some arc Apposed to it. Some Favor it and Some not Interested at all. Mr. Editor: ? 1 kindly ask for space in the columns of your valuable paper for a few Iities. It seems that the time has come when the people are becoming agitated over the dispensary question. Some in favor of it, some opposed toit, while others don't seem to be interested at all. 1 believe, after thinking for a moment of all the evils that have been done on account of whiskey for the last live years, that seventy five per cent of the people will say: "Do away with the dispensaries and our country will come to the front, abolish the sale of all intoxicating liqu >1 s and you will not see so many of our your.g men travelling that downward road where nothing good is ac complished and no success attained. Those who do not oppose the disneusury sav they are in favor of it, flmv /lfMi't MMiiit l,r?/>liil/li?/?i> deprived of their right, that it would be doing them an injustice to do away the dispensary funds for they think this is how they get an education. I am sorry for the man who wants his children educated on the blood of his fellow man. We arc commanded to build on a solid foundation, and we must do so if we wish to be successful. I would like to ask this question just here- IIow is the mar. who is in favor of the dispensary building? Instead of building on a solid rock he is building in the sand where he has no promise of substant ialness. There are two classes of people that I sympathize with concerning this matter. First are those who do not care enough about the welfare and prosperity of their country to speak a word either in favor or against the dispensary. Secondly, it is the children of those who are in favor of it. Mothers, for the sake of yourselves and your children, persuade your husband to vote down the dispensary. (Jod forbid that any should be so ignorant as to believe the dispensary a good thing. May the time soon come when they can see things ju^t as they are, and turn from such before it is too late. K. C, Allen. INixon villc. Ver^ hot weather just now. Some rain would be beneficial just now. The protracted meeting here at Tilly Swamp closed on Sunday afternoon the 2Hd inst with four conversions and live accessions who were baptised on Monday morning about 9 o'clock. The meeting was well attended throughout the week and we trust that there has been much and lasting good done in the Master's cause. B. J. Cox of Conway attended the meeting on Sunday. (J. Wash Lewis of Labana was visiting relatives and friends here the latter part, of last week and enjoyed the meeting. .1. P. Johnson of Grahamville, we learn, is sick with fever but we hope not seriously. Mr. Dawsey seems to be progressing well with his school.

Dawscy, one of our prominent young men, is teaching the Tilly Swamp school near Nixonville, S. C. Several of our young people went to a picnic at lllack Ankle school house on Saturday .Inly 22nd. The opinion here is that the dispensary will go to the wall. Mr. W. K. Graham has been ill with rheumatism for some time. We think he is improving some. We wish to correct a mistake which appeared in the Joppa news of last week. Some names appeared thus: "Misses Sallie and Nora Hodges," and it should have been Misses "Sallie and Nora Granger. " Hinder. Ccbu. The J. II. Sixer Lumber Co., is niaiwu^ iiuo |jn.?^rus? wiui MICH' l'OUU and other fixtures. W. J. Sessions returned from New Orleans, Da., last week. L. S. and P. D.

G. - -The Steamer Burroughs has been chartered for the purpose of running an excursion up the river on Saturday p in., July 29th, leaving Conway at 8:30 and returning about 7 o'clock. This excursion is complimentary to all delegates at tending the Pee Dee Union. Other friends wishing to go can secure tickets at 10c for children and lf?c for adults. All are cordially invited to join U9 ^RESPOt^ Wampee. Mrs. Bertha Watts is very ill. Miss Nora Thompson is also very sick. Mr. Gaston Stanley tilled his appointment at Union Valley last Sundry and preached an interesting sermon to a large congregation. Mr. Kobt. M. Floyd was union# us on Sunday. Ho is Colporteur for the county and is selling books at a low price. The crops in this section are some better than once thought they would be. I think wo will have to have the new Court House and Jail if the ollijcors of the law will change the small lines to larger ones for the crimes committed these days. One day last week while Mr. D, H. Bellamy and wife were away from home, some dogs run a fox to their p:aee and it went under the kitchen. One of the drivers shot it and some of the shot pa set I tu rough the dross of one of his girls. Carpenter l.uhuna. We are having fine weather now. Mrs. Lewis Hughes and Miss Jennie Casque are quite sick at this writing. Dr. J. A. Norton was .hero last week on professional business. Monroe Lane went to Hayboro ro! cen tly. Mr. M. C, Hughes was in ou?* sec tion last week on nusiness Messrs. J. T. Proctor and Hur roughs Lundy of Conway, ousted through here la-?t Sunday cnroule to visit thc'i* old homes near Jordanville, Mr. Pulton Grantham, who is traveling for the Farmer's Wsire house at, Mullins, was hero last weetf soliciting patronage for his house. Mr. J. M. fiielmrdson is spending sometime with his parent* here. Messrs. Hurley and Cantey Johnson of Forney, visited their sister, Mrs. J. A. Johnson a few days ago. We are much in sympathy with the movement on foot to remove the dispensaries from our county. If every church member who can vote would consider the responsibility resting on them and say "If the dispensary must be in Hoi ry county, it will not be by my vote or patronage," it would not be long before we would have no dispensary and thus be rid of the evil that is ruining our county. Mueh success to tha IIkuald and its many readers. Cor. o mm a i*y. Mrs. Stella Moore, daughter of Mi. and Mrs. I). I). Anderson and the beloved wife of Mr. J. K. Moore died July 1Mb IdO.o, at her home near Cool Spring, S. C , at the age of thirty years. aitor several months of intense suffering, bourn with christian fortitude and patience, she sweetly breathed her hist. On Sunday morning J tdy 1)tli at six o'clock her immortal spirit returned to God who gave it, thus passed away a good woman, a loving faithful wife and a kind neighbor. She leaves a husband, one child and a host of friends to mourn their loss. She possessed a broad and deep nature free from malice. She was charitable and merciful to all and for many years had been a consistent member of the Methodist church. Mrs. Moore, like many of old, choose that good part early in life, which was never taken away from her; and was such a comfort to her while living, and also comfoi ted her in her last moments. She was faithful to attend church, Sunday school and prayer meeting as long as possible. Wo shall meet her no more in this world, but we hope to meet her where parting will be no moore. At 11 o'clock Monday a. m., her remains were carried to the IJuker cemetery where the Rev. Mr. Davis preached her funeral, after which loving friends laid her away to await the resurrection morn. Wo can only say, while we feel our loss is great, that we how in humble submission to the will of Him who is "too wise to err and too good to he unkind." m . it* 11 " may we an Joiiow her example in working for *our Saviour while we have the opportunity. We extend our sympathy to the bereaved husband and the entire family connection, and may Gods grace be sufficient for them in this their hour of bereavmont. May thy will be done. Ye fathers and mothers, of mortal years, The husband, and sisters too; Ye are waiting still, in the valley of tears; Hut, she waits to welcome you. A Friend. ?? ? ? llorryitc Injured in l-lorida. It has just been reported at this office that Mr. M. V. Patrick of Neals Landing, Fla., was badly injured, having his collar bone and shoulder broken, on last Friday, by the falling of a inule, which he was riding, while going at fair speed. It is said that his ever faithful dog, "Joe," seized the heavy beast by the nose and aided in pulling him off his master. Mr. Patrick is still in bed and quite sick. ?The Chinese laundry is the place when you want good work. I.Ike riiidlnir Money. Conway Drug Co., the popular Iruggist, arc making an olTer that >s just like finding money, for they are selling a regular .">() cent bottle of j Dr. Howard's celebrated specific for the cure of constipation and d.ys pepsia at half-price In addition to this large discount they agree to return the money to any purchaser whom the specific does not cure. It is quite unusual to be able to buy fifty cent pieces for a quarter, but that is what this oiler really means, for it isonly recently, through the solicitation of Conway Drug Co., that this medicine eould be bought for less than lifty emits, they urged the proprietors to allow them to sell it at this reduced price for a little while, agreeing to sell a certain 1 mount. The result has justified their good judgment , for the sale has peen something remarkable. Anyone who sutlers with headache, l.yspcpsia, dizziness, sour stomach. >pocks before the eyes, or any liver trouble, should take advantage of ibis opportunity for Dr. Howard's jpecific will cure all these troubles. But if by any chance it should not, Don way Drug Co., will return your noney. CONWAY PARLOR MARKET C. F. Kamrow, Prop. A Ihi'.cl er of 3f> years ex perienee. JDENTS.

The singing school at Greenwood 1 under the care of Mr. Charles Lewi^ 1 was well attended last Friday and Saturday. ' The Buckhorn school opened on ( the 20th of July under the manage- 1 ment of Mr. Wall, of Marion county Much is being said about the (lis- t pensary. We feel sure that the people of this section of the county would be willing to do their part towards doing away with the curse if they knew that would be the end of the Iiijnor question. We think if the dispensary is properly managed it is j better than the open bar roo n, butj we have no particular need for either. Anyway let us stand united | against the liquor curse;. A great deal depends upon how the leading politicians act, but let's show them that we have a conviction and have called upon them for help, but in trying to do away with it. let s not < call it a thief or robber an v more, but remember that it is alright in its place, and will not bother anybody if they let it alone. We think one of the most needful things at present is a bettor system of education. There is a great many parevts who do not take advantage 1 of the opportunities that tlicv have to educate their children, yet they pay a tax to help support the pub lie schools. You may ask them why they do not send to school? They cannot give you any lawful excuse. I say many times it is carelessness and for the lack of good judgment. Would not compulsory education t<? some extent be a great benefit to the i children brought up by parents of i this nature? Wo are glad to say that sumo (if the young people of this neighbor- , hood are making heroic efforts to keep themselves abreast of the times. MM,/.tr ...... I-: ? ..v>r u'iUMn^ ut*\v and stronger efforts to equip themselves for the t inevitable future on the farms, in 1 the schools and nearly every walk in life. Improvement is clearly seen. Some few have at last realized that there is always room at the top and that the time is near when there will be no room for the sluggard ei ther at the top or the bottom of the ladder. Keep 011 boys and girls, remember the destiny of our homes and our country will soon rest noon our shoulders and whv not wo of our ! own community be able to take our stand anion# the best of the land.
