I
The prohibition convenlion held
in the court house here last Saturday
was what might be called the
4%fir*t giin''in this county in the com
ing campaign. As will be seen by
reference to our news columns, de
legates were elected to the State
prohibition convention which
' meets in Columbia next Thursday.
At this convention a lull State
.?* ^
ticket will be nominated
to be voted for by those favoring
tho prohibition of the liquor
traffic. It is the intention of the
i '
I prohibitionists to run their candidates
in the regular Democratic
primary that is to be held next
summer. There is some doubt
about the State Democratic execu.
live committee permitting the
prohibitionists to have candidates
in tKa nrimarv. and if the cold?
(Water candidate is raled out by
the Democratic committee, theu
he will run at the regular election
next November.
A straightout prohibition ticket
in the 6eld is something new in
the political history of South Carolina,
and the result of the election
will be watched with a great
deal of interest. Just how Williamsburg
will go it is hard to
tell. In the election in 1892,
when the question of prohibition
or no prohibition was put to the
people at the box,there were 1,986
votes polled for the State ticket
but only 1,794 on the prohibition
question. Out of these 1,794 voter
on the question of prohibition or
no prohibition, "no prohibition1'
received 1.035, and "prohibition"

|j liarasbarg was a "dry"coantry,hav
? ing been legislated so some years
before.But since the advent ot the
f ' dispensary andu0. P.n shops into
the county, there has been a decided
change in the sentiment of
prohibition of the liquor traffic.
So there is no telling where the
county will stand when the bal
to lots have been counted, but the
fe ' prohibitionists say that the result
w will be a surprise to those who
think that the minority of the
ami
votes ot Williamsburg favor the
sale of whiskey.
What has become of the ordi.
nance passed last January re. quiring
all male citizens of Kings- <
tree wbo are subject to poll tax 1
to pay two dollars street duty? If
our council has ever tried to col- ,
]
Ject a single dollar of it, it is more <
than we know. As an act of ;
fairness and justice to the property
holders of the town, this law
should be enforced. There are
scores of men of both races in
Kingstree who do not contribute
one cent towards defraying the (
expenses of the town. This state
of affairs should not exist, and we
vjt hope the town council will see to c
U that all men wbo come under
mf- cwvzm
1 ;
the bane of the law wilf either
pay the two dollars or work out
the amount on the streets.
The Independent Republic, of
Conway, 6eems to be burdened
with unappreciated efforts on the
part of would-be newspaperwriters,
for it says:
Those who do not subscribe to
the Renuhlio need not send in
communications, except news, unless
they want to fill our wastebasket.
V-Te will receive news
from any reliable source, but our
space is too valuable to fill with
matter from and about those who
have not enough public spirit to
subscribe to their county paper.
The Darlingtouiun now comes
to us twice a week. Editor Brown
knows what the demands of his
subscriber are, and always tries to
supply them, hence his efiorts to
give the people news while it is
fresh. The DarJingtonian
has enjoyed a very prosperous
career since its entry into the jour
nalistic field of South Carolina,
and we hope it will continue to
meet with success.
We are often asked how many
times land must be advertised
against tresspassers make it lega'.
IIere is the bill as amended by the
recent Legislature, which settles
the question:
Section 1S6. Every entry
upon the'land of another after no
tice from the tenant or owner prohibiting
the same, shall be a misdemeanor,
and be punished by a
fine not exceed $100 or imprisonment
with harl labor on the public
work of the county not to exceed
30 days. Provided that
whenever any owner or tenant of
lands shall post a notice in four
couspicious places on the border
of any land prohibiting entry there
and shall puolish once a week
for four consecutive weeks such
notices in anv newspaper, eirculat
ed in the county where such lands
are situated. A proof of the pub
lishing and posting of such notices
within twelve months prior to
the entry shall be deemed and
taken as notice conclusive against
the person making said entry as

HYPNOTIZING HER FATHER?
Chtrliy Thoofht It Would B? Euj ifUr
Expcrimeotlng oa Other*.
Charley Horton is one of the best
young men in this city, but it is
barely possible that there may be
found here and there somebody who
knows more than he does?or did.
A few weeks ago when Charley
was visiting Dollie Bid well?these,
by the way, are fictitious names?
he and she got to discussing hypnotism.
Dolly loves Charley very
i much, but she loves a joke, too, and
' when he proposed to hypnotize her
she not only consented, but pretend1
ed to immediately fall under the
force of bis spell.
In fact, she was as passive as a
little kitten even when he took a
| long, sweet kiss from her, and she
: meekly went through a lot of ridici
ulous performances at his oommand,
| finally ooming out of the spell with
a jerking of hor pretty head and a
i blinking of her eyes when he snap
ped his fingers and saia, "Aiirignu
Dollie told bor sister Mildred of
the joke, and when the letter's beau
i came, a few evenings later, Charley
i had to hypnotize the three of them,
j They all proved to be good subjects,
| and he had a mountain of fun. Then
when be and Dollie were alone
! again she unfolded a noble plan to
him.
"Why not," ehe said, "hypnotize
papa when you go to ask him for
mei You've been putting it off and
J putting it off from week to week because
you were afraid he might get
angry, but if we are to get married
he ought to bo told at once.
"Go up to him, cast your spell
over him, or at least partly hypnotize
him, and then the rest will be
easy. What do you think i"
"It's a capital scheme," said
Charley. "I'll do it tomorrow. By
| George, what a lucky thing it is
i that I have this wonderful power 1"
So the next day young Air. Horton
walked into Mr. Bidwell's office,
sat down opposite the old gentleman
and began gazing at him steadily.
Anthony Bidwell gazed book,
wondering whether the yonng man
had been rendered speechless or
what was the matter with him. and
was about to say something when
Charley raised his hands, pointed
his fingers at the father of the girl
he loved and then made several
passes in rapid succession.
Mr. Bidwell arose, grasped the
j back of his chair, with an inwaid
; determination to 6ell his life dearly
j if the worst came, and then began
I slowly backing out of the office,
with Charley following, making
passes and gazing at bim with an
intensity that was almost frightful.
Finally Mr. Bidwell reachod the
door, grabbed the knob and slammed
it shut after him as be jumped
into the hall. Then he hung on,
bracing himself against the wall,
and began yelling for help,
i The porter, the elevator boy and
: several tenants of the building ran
| to bis assistance, but before tbey
; could decide upon a plan of action
Dollie, wbo bad desired to aeo the
fun, appeared upon the scene and
asked what was the matter.
Her father knew she loved Charley
Horton, and be looked at her
pityingly for a moment before telling
her the awful truth.
Then she laughed a merry laugh,
whispered something In the old gentleman's
ear, and he relinquished
bia hold upon the doorknob, at the
same time telling those who had
gone to bia assistance that it waa
all right
.hurt what happened after Dollie
and her father got inside she refused
to tell, but she and Charley went
away happy half an hour later, and
he has decided to do no more hypnotizing.?Cleveland

The bladder wascreated for one purpose,
namely, a receptcle for the urine
and as such it is not liable to any form
of diseases except by one or two ways. \
! The first way is from imperfect action
of the kidneys. The second is from
| careless local treatment of other diseases.
CHIEF CAUSE^_ 4UM
Unhealthy urine from unhealth^W
kidneys is the chief cause -of bladder '"~h
trouble. So the womb, like the blad- ;
ber, was created for one purpose, and
if not doctored too much is not liable
to weakness or disease, except in rare
cases. It is situated of and very closo
to the bladder, therefore any pain,
disease or inconvenience manifested
in the kidneys, back, bladder, or uninary
passage is often, by mistake, attributed
to female weakness or womb
trouble of some sort. The error is
ensily made and may be as easily
avoided. To find out correctly, set
your urine aside for twenty four hours
a sediment or settling indicates kidney
or bladder trouble. The mild
and the extraordinary effect of Dr,
Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great kidney,
