Benson, August 3:^The constitu
ents of the Benson baseball team,
formerly the "Reds'' and the
"Blues",are of a progressive nature
and therefore are increasing greatly
in number. This increase, together
with a spirit of rivalry, suggested
the making of another play-ground?
or diamond, Number 2. Number I
ia on the west side of Cedar Swamp
aid Number 2 on the east side. Only
two weeks have elapsed since the division,
yet the enthusiastic fans and i
o.thers enjoyed a match jrame Satur- i
day en diamond Number 1. The j
m itch pame fever was at a white <
heat when Nos.l and 2 crossed bats, j
but with R Cantley in the box for i
Number 2 and A Howard behind the j
bat, with the assistance of a shower i
of rain, they rec. ced the tempera- |
ture of No.l to the tune of a 6 to 16 <
score. Batteries for No. 1: B (
Croooks, Scott McGill.J McCulIough l
and C C Boykin. i

Rev J L Mullinix spoke to his 1
' 1 congregation Sunday on the subject i
of temperance. His principal j
thought was directed to the voting j
on the dispensary questibn. He j
took the statement of the Attorney- ;
^ General of the State of Kansas, which <
has been under prohibition for thir- ]
ty years, where they have wealth, i
very few prisoners,a limited number ,<
of lunatics, paupers and imbeciles; <
whereas, by comparison, our State i
shows prison houses full, crimes in- |
numerable and the asylum filled to <
overflowing:. He depicted the blind |
p tigers and the purchasers from them ]
as the lowest and dirtiest of all deal- <
* ers in liquor. But their sales, by j
actual figures, could not compare
with those of the dispensary.

8 In Re Dispensary Question. y
I Editor County Record:? i
I Kinjjstree, June 16:?Discussion y
| on tn# dispensary quesuuu id
I j* quiet here, although a petition,signI
ed by more than the required one- l
S third voters, has been forwarded to ,
I the Governor with a request that he
order an election on the question of
I a dispensary or no dispensary to be
I operated at Kingstree. Until recent0a
ly the blind tiger business was so
flourishing here that a number of 1
the townspeople, who voted against
a* the dispensary three years ago, believe
now that it will be a great re- j
lief, and have not only signed the j
t petition for an election, but openly (
signified their intention of support- r
ing the dispensary question at the (
polls when the election is held in j
August. (
I was very much surprised to see t
the above in the News and Courier,
some time past. Citizens of Wil- *
liamsburg county, think seriously j
before voting in favor of a dispen- j
sary back in Kingstree. You have s
gotten rid of it and it will surely be i
sooner or later to your sorrow if you '
do not help to stay rid of it. What |
does it mean? It means that many r
q imnr.or man who would otherwise r
w J WVk"0 ?
never touch liquor,will go to a drunkard'sgrave.
It means that you who r
have sons are inviting and encourag- 't
ing them to drink. Men, let your ?
consciences work before and not af- i
ter the election. Why did God give J
you these precious sons and daugh- :
ters? It is not every married couple s
who are so blest. f

ulous an?l less to be excused than a
irunken man or woman? Yes, woman!
Why should she not hav& the
same right? The person writing the'
above piece for the News and Cour,er
seems to try to picture the dispensary
so much better than the blind
liger, just as if we were compelled
:o have blind tigers. Who are responsible
for the blind tigers? What
io they mean? They mean poor ofneers
and weak men. A blind tiger
s a law-breaker, and should be punished.
But even they are not so
tempting or inviting to our young
men and boys as the dispensary.
Some of you may answer that the
boys are not allowed to buy whiskey
from a dispensary. I am sorry to
say that there are older ones whom
they may only ask to buy it for them.
Think and decide, citizens of Williamsburg
and other counties.
When you see a person under the
influence of strong drink from a blind
tiger do you feel responsible? If you
vote in favor of the dispensary and
see a person under its influence will
you then feel responsible? Will you?
It may be your own loved one, who
would not have touched it, but for
the sight of it ever near.
Merchants, think of the dollars a
dispensary will take from you, many
a dollar that would otherwise go to
pou will go for drink. Some men
will spend their dollar for drink if
their poor wires and children have to
suffer for the want of food and closing.
Will you help to make it easy
for them to get drink? Which will
pou decide? You who have sons and
daughters to raise, will you say put
liquor in their midst to so tempt
them? Only a short while since one
jweet little wife and mother remarKid
to the writer: "My husband has
aot drank whikey for four years;
how I hope they will not bring the
dispensary back to so tempt him. He
has been like a different man since
he quit drink." Will you help to
destroy the happiness of this and a
jreat many other homes? Perhaps
pour own.
Decide, friends, what you will do,
md vote according in August. Will
pou say,bring the dispensary and let
ny children be drunkards if they
vish? You will surely regret it when
t is too late.

The Dispensary Election.
Editor County Record: I
have read the articles which
have been published in The Record
for the past few weeks concerning
the coming dispensary election.
These articles have been strengthening
to my faith in praying that God
would deliver us from this threaten
ed danger of having whisky selling
again a legalized business in Williamsburg.
This suggests to me that
perhaps I may be able to help some
others by telling them that I, too,
belong to that circle who pray daily
that all Christians may vote against
this wrong and [that it may be
defeated. I do not want my boy to
grow to manhood in a community
where it is treated as a respectable
business. In my Bible study this
morning I came across this passage:
"Woe unto them that decree unrighteous
decrees." Will not this
woe apply to everyone who by his
vote legalizes this curse of whisky
selling? Yes,indeed,and, fathers, re
member it will apply not alone to
you but to your children. In time
to come,when you have passed on to
render to God an account of your
actions while here,your children will
be left behind to reap the fruits of
your present sowing. All I ask of
you is that you seek guidance from
God as to whether you vote for the
dispensary or against it. There is
not a man in this county who expects
to vote for it who can honestly
say he has asked for God's guidance
in the matter and is sure it is
God's will for him to vote for it.
Friends, will you not stop long
enougn to consider:

Costly Treatment.
"I was troubled with constipation
and indigestion and spent hundreds
of dollars for medicine and treatment,"
writes C H Hines of Whitlow,
Ark. "I went to a St Louis hospital,
also to a hospital in New Orleans,
but no cure was effected. On returning
home I began taking Chamberlain's
Tablets and worked rightalong.
I used them for some time and am
now all right." Sold by all dealers.
