Other NotesRain is falling every clay, and wo are all wet and lively. Th efarmers are all wearing unpleasant looking faces because of so much rain on their crops. But as the old saying goes, In]inanity is doomed to disappointment, and such is the experience of the fanner this year. Mrs. G \V. Cook of Florida was the guest of tlie Misses Oliver last week Miss Flora Oliver is at home again after a deJightlul visit to Muri'ells Inlet. B. F Singleton ai d M. W. Cook of Conway visited friends here recen tly. Miss Fannie Oliver was hostess at at a delightful informal entertainment Wednesday evening at the home of her , mother, Mrs. 1). \V. Oliver, given complimentary to Miss Sadie Oliver. The home was brilliantly lighted and prettily deeorat eo tor the occasion. Mrs. It. L?. Lunn welcomed the gnosis at the! door and invited them into the hall, ' where from a bower of exquisite i ferns, Miss Clara Oliver charmingly served them with refreshing fruit nectar. Thence they were shown into the drawing room, where Miss Lannie Oliver received her guests. Much mirth and laughter were indulged in when the young men became busily engaged in trimming the prettiest tacky hat for their chosen partners. The guests then repareo to the dining room illuminated with Japanese lanterns where dainty refreshments were served at small ?ables. The color scheme was pinlc and white. N T.

Success to all. L M. Hardee ? ?*~o Is your name on your club roll? SUPPLE* CONWAY, S C., TllURS MR. JACKSON'S PLATFORM. Opposes M'liiskey Trnfflc-Fuvora Schools and (iooil Koads. It seems that the boys prefer to hold themselves in reserve till the campaign opens and not let their platform be known, which is all rioht for mo, for 1 have decided to continue in the race to the end and I now take the liberty to let the peo| pie know where 1 stand on all the issues that are likely to come before this camnriiirn. a In the tirst place 1 air-, opposed to the whiskey business in any shape. While ii is a fact that prohibition fails to entirely prohibit, it is an indisputable fact that it does prohibit to a certain extent, and if those in authority would execute the law, as they should, and not wink.at the vio- ; lation of it we could enfyce prohibi- I lion. lint, if we have got to have J whiskey any way, 1 am in favor of doing away with the State dispensary and let each county say whether they will have county dispensaries 1 1 ...I : - : ' J - 1 uiuuii'u in incorporated towns. and i then let the towns say whether, they are willing to have it or not , Bui I shall never vote for one anywhere. 1 have always voted for Tillman, and shall do so again, but I can't agree with him in every particular. Some say county dispensa- | ries will diversify graft, 1 say it it, 1 does, let the State dispensary go anyway. Just, as well have a lot of little rogues as a few big ones. 1 . do not mean to say that all connected with the business were j rogues, but undoubtedly there was something wrong with some of them. In the event we fail to get rid of the State dispensary, then let the State manufacture its own whiskey and not buy a single gallon from other places, I am also in favor of the State manufaoturinVj^li^t.nizers, which is just as reasonable as going into tlit; whiskey business. ! 1 am in favor of an appropriation being made by the Slate to supplement the school fund for the beuetit of the poor country schools. It seems that- the people want to know how I stand on the slock lav. question. T will say that is a matter for the people to settle and not me. If I am elected it will bo by the people and I shall be a servant of the people. 1 am in favor of an extra ma'1 tax so those who cut up the road most will help to keep tnom up. That is, 1 want to put thistfood roads question into elTect in s. me shape. This is my platform and by it I shall stand or fall. A. I) Jackson.
