Suffragists Appeal for Aid. g To the Suffragists of Williamsburg:! County: ? Kqual suffrage resolutions and; amendments will be strongly presented at the coming session of Con- j gress. South Carolina represent- j atives have heretofore either opposed the measure or been indif- j ferent, because, sentiment in this; State has not warranted active sup-; port. j However.the time has come when it is necessary to advise our United States Senators and Congressmen as to the strength of the movement in Pornlina in order that they OUWUI VMi Vi. *<v. ... may truly represent us in Congress. At the annual meeting of the South Carolina Equal Suffrage League in Columbia recently a resolution to petition our Congressmen was unanimously passed, and plans for giving every suffragist in the State an op-j portunity to take part in this peti- \ tion were made. The following are the resolutions | j to be presented to our representatives in Congress, and you are invited to sign and mail to the chairman of the Congressional committee at once. Men as well as women are urged to co-operate with us by signing since a representative list is desired. Address Mrs M T Coleman. Ch'm'n Cong Com. Whereas, the South Carolina Equal Suffrage League, an organize tion of j, 1,400 members, desires to cooperate i with the National American Woman Suffrage association, through its Congressional committee, for the purpose of securing the passage by Congress of the Susan B Anthony amendment to the United States Constitution, granting suffrage to women upon the same terms as men; and Whereas, Reiterating the long established principle of nonpartisanship on the part of the National American Woman Suffrage association, with which our organization is affiliated, we ask for the support of all political parties in our efforts to secure the passage of this amendment in Congress and its ratification by the State Legislatures; and Whereas, All of the National political parties except two have already declared their support of the principle of woman suffrage; therefore be it Resolved. That we hereby request the Hon B R Tillman and the Hon E D Smith, United States Senators from this State, and the Hon J W Ragsdale, representative in Congress from the 6th Congressional District of this State, to vote * j: the amendment and to use their | fullest influence in its favor; and Resolved further, That we hereby request the two political parties that have not declared in favor of woman suffrage?the Democratic and Republican parties?to include in their State and National plat- , forms a declaration in favor of woman suffrage, and a promise to support legislation to that end. Accidentally Killed by Train. ' The Florence Times of Saturday says: "A negro whose name could not be learned was picked up by a Coast Line train at Brockington Thursday in an unconscious condition and was brought to Florence. He was given medical attention but death resulted yesterday morning. Coroner Gunn held the inquest and it was determined that the negro was ! struck by a train which caused his death. The Coroner endeavored to find out who the dead man was, but found no one who knew him. He was buried here yesterday." A FAIR WARNING. Oae That Should Be Heeded by Klogstree Residents. Frequently the first sign of kidney trouble is a slight ache or pain in the loins. Neglect of this warning makes the way easy for more serious troubles?dropsy, gravel, Bright's disease. 'Tis well to pay attention to the first sign. Weak kidneys generally grow weaker and delay is often dangerous. Residents of this locality place reliance in Doan's Kidney Pills. This tested remedy has been used in kidney trouble over 50 years?is recommended all over the civilized world. Read the following: W G Graham, 116 Fountain St, Darlington, S C, says: "My kidneys gave me a lot of trouble, causing dull pains in the small of my back. In the morning my back was so sore and lame that I could hardly keep going. I had dizzy spells and the kidney secretions passed irregularly. Colds often settled on my kidneys, making my condition worse. I tried different medicines, but with no success until I used Doan's Kidney Pills. Three boxes cured me." Price 50c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy?get Doan's Kidney Pills?the same that Mr Graham had. Foster-Milburn Go Prop9. Buffalo. N Y. V j?
