oldest paper published in the State, and with one
or two exceptions the oldest in the country. 1t is
proposed to continue its usefulness as paper

room and work shop and to this end neither
pains nor expense viii! be spared.
The GAZETTE circulates among people who con.
suit its advertising columns before purchasing

fact that Il large country edition-nearly as large
as the daily-s sent all over this section of coun
try three times a week, and is read by thousands,
most of whom send here or to contiguous cities to
make purchases. The advantages of advertising
in the GAZETTE are apparent.

a delightful dancing party at McBurney's
Hall given by Mayor and Mrs. J. B. Smoot
to their niece, Miss Florence Wooford. The

and fashion of this city, besides a number
of strangers from distance, while many of
maturer age graced the occasion with their
presence and joined heartily in the enjoy
ments of the evening. The toilets of the
ladies were extremely handsome and taste
full, while the ladies themselves presented q
galaxy of beauty never excelled on similar
occasion in this city. The music was
finely rendered by Prof. Donch's band
and during the evening delightful refresh
ments were served. Dancing was kept up
till nearly three o'clock, when the guests
reluctantly departed for their homes.

went on to say that he had been much en-
couraged by the results of his labors and
was satisfied that with the proper amount
of enterprise, money could be made in this
city. He further said that he was making
preparation to double his business this year,
and confidently expected that his profits

General Beaver in a recent speech said
be was forced 10 doubt the sincerity Of
men who proieesed to believe one thing
and work to accomplish another Hewas
talking about the Third Party men, who
proless u desire to save the country from
the evils Of incompetence, yet are pursu-
ING course which helps the Democratic
party, which 10 opposed to the measures
they advocate.
Wa cannot Ggree with General Beaver
that the sincerity OF all ouch men 10 to be
doubted. We know that some OF them
are sincere and believe all Of them to be
unwise. Tho sincere ones deIude them
gelyes into the belieitha they are helping
to build up q party that will soon be strong
enough 10 stand alone, to pass such pro-
bibitory laws as they desire and to enforce
them. They find q comforting analogy in
the growth and final triumph oil the abo-
lition movement, which Camo up through
great tribulatIon. This phase Of the ques.
ton Is well met by "a Prohibltisnist" in
the Philadelphia Pres;
Though political anti-slavery never car
ried precinct, it several times lost power
10 tho sentiment II maintained. For ex.
ample, In 1874 1900 Abolition votes in
New York elected Polk, annexed Texas,
lost the tariff OF 1912, made war with Mex
leo, repealed the Missouri Compromise
and covered Kansas with blood. The ABB
olitionist did not intend this, but his un.
wisdom and partisan action gave to the
slave.holding states the power to do this,
TO advance slavery. Wet, thanks to an
all-wise God, He Overruled the evil and
made II the means OF making US great
and widespread nation. But how did
He do itP Through punishment by war
and bloodshed, logs Of life, property and
peace to both the evil.doers and tho good.
shall not characterize the loss Of New
York by partisan Prohibition vote in
1884; yet wiRdom might strive to know
how much was gained by prohibition.
prohibitionists OF 1885, beware lest the
result in November strengthens the liquor
interest, and postpone the day OF final re-
demption. How God will override the
evil he only knows.
II war had not come slavery would have
been with US 10 this day. 10 follow out
the analogy the country must again be
drenched in blood before it can rid itself
OF the evils Of intemperance. But this Is
not what tho Third Party men expect,
and 80 their analogy Is not good.
Tho evils Of tho drink habit are go
great that we should despair Of the future
OF the American people II we thought
those evils could never be abated except
through the triumph Of the Third Party,
or even through prohibition; for the one
will not come and the other is disap-
pointmont when it does come. Society
can no moro stop iutemperanoe than pro.
family by an Act Of tho Legislature.

Tho Winter ontlook For ireland

England preferred 10 DRIFT a while onger
rather than make now departure on the
Irish question. She was deaf to the ap.
peal Of the Ireland which suffers and
starves. She would not heed the most
statesmanlike voice that has been heard
in her Parliament this century. Glad.
stone and Famine plead for justice to Ire
land and peace to the realm, and England
was as cold and unrosponsive rs one Of
Pyramids Of Egypt.
Winter approaches with the peasant
tOnantry in distress and the landlords de-
msnding tho pound Of tleah. The situa.
tion is worse than 1t was q year ago, not
only because the chronic disorder
Is aggravated by time, but
because the first OF English
statesmen has admitted that En-, lish rule
in Ireland Is infamous and justified the
Irish cause. After the admission and the
warnings that fell from the lips OF Glad.
stone the Irish people felt that they had
new arm to lean upon, and they will not
be more resigned TO the hard fate which
banishes them from the old sod, or burles
them in early graves. They are not
likely to be more patient. II Is not in
human nature, and the 1rlshmen are hu.
man, though the English oppressorS have
never believed It.
The opening winter may well Gil with
apprehension the friends Of Ireland.
Nothing Is 80 sure to breed turbulence As
distress, and turbulence will not help the
Irish cause. That cause has taken a deep
hold upon tho Epgllah conscience. There
Is a healthy growth among Englishmen in
favor Of justice for the land which has
felt only tho iron hand Of England. II
this growth Of sentiment DO not retarded,
Mr.. Gladstone, whose sands Of life are
nearly run ont, may live 10 SEQ his Coun.
trymen do justice to tho most miserable
Of their fallen subjects, Outbreaks in
ireland would delight the Tory heart, but
they could only be disastrous to the Irish
nauEe,
