' TEMPERANCE LAV AND j ORDER RALLY. Anti-Dispertsary Speeches. Prohibition. Tuesday was the day of the grand rally of the law and order, antidispensary and prohibition leaders. Hon. Joseph MtCullough who was expected to address the people, telegraphed his regrets. Rev. F. C. Hickson, of Gaffney, and Rev. H. K. Ezell, of Kelton, were present and both made good speeches. Mr. Hickson reviowed tho history of whiskey selling in all of its phases, the old bar room system, the dry or prohibition^ time when the drug stores sold it,.and blind tigers flourished, down the dispensary. He detailed all of the evils which had emanated from the dispensary. He drew to life pictures of the average candidate for the different offices, when he said that tho candidate would say: lam not a speaker, but so far as the whiskey question is concerned "J am for the dispensa ry." It was too true that the average candidate of those 'days could not l?y reason of his blindness separate the dispensary from Tillman, he seemed to regard them as identical, those opposed to the dispensary were therefore necessarily opposed to Tillman. Their blind and unquestioned suppoi c of the dispensary was an evidence that tlicy did not think for themselves then as they seem to be now doing. Mr. Hickson is obtuse as the al)ovc mentioned candidates, in his not being able to separate dispensary abolition from prohibition, he takes prohibition rather more than the necessity! of getting rid of the dispensary, in this he makes a mistake for the simple reason that there are a good many who are opposed to the dispensary and would vote against it,, but are not advo" cates of prohibition in the sense used by Mr. Hickson. It is always better tb fight for one thing at a time ana not confuse and confound two issues if we desire to sue coca. This meetihg was very well attended and the speakers were given an attentive and respectful hearing. This is a difficult problem for the people to solve as has ever been, the whiskey question, viewed as it is from such a vast number of standpoints; but the people are going to settle it one way or the other. ^ - . He Turned on the Lights, , Exposing the Chips on the Green Cloth. Tuesday night a certain itinerant I peddler found in his rambling through our town a place where he I could, if luck came his way, take up more than ho put down. It ' seems that on that particular night > he was sailing under a particularly lucky star, and in the deal and possibly every turn the chips fell on his pile, until he had more than the unlucky dealer in the red, white and blue could or would redeem. . The lucky peddler and game of chance player became a little enraged that his winning chips could not or would not hv tho nnliinlrv dealer be cashed or rodeemed, so he ) carried the unredeemed chips to the chief of police and thus exposed the ' illegitimate transactions of the green . cloth, and upon the information furnished a warrant was issued for the dealer and proprietor of the green cloth. While we deplore the existence of any such places, and c feel that they are a curse to the country, affording as they do one f of the greatest evils and sources of ? corruption, degradation and total depravity, we have absolutely no sympathy or respect for one who in a spirit of revenge only and not from principle exposes the existence of a gambling den. This is a case that should be so dealt with as to make an example by which others I of similar character would tako warning. We have an editorial in this issue in which we warn the I city authorities, but it has no reference to the matter we relate in this article, as it was written before the e occurrence herein related. It is j high time that the Augean stables 8 be cleaned, and if all we hear be true it will take a Hercules to do c it, and our mayor should be that. ii Massage Treatment-Women ^ Made Beautiful. Miss E. E. Blankcnship, of Charlotte, N. C., is in the city and offers ? her services to the pcoplo, especially I the ladies. Indies of culture and refinement pronounce the treatment productive of all that is desired in development of woman's charms. Health is the true secret of woman's 0 beauty, and massage is the means it through which this is attained. ?? The lull headed men and thin r haired women can find relief from this loss of hair in tho treatment given by Miss Blankenship. 11 r G R EAT^^S ? Closing Out Sale! | Will Continue to Sept.
