The chief attraction in M city on
Monday last was the grand opening
and magnificent display Of beautiful
and elegant spring and summer
goods, millinery, etc, at a, summer
field 4 Bros. The procession which
kept up a steady march to and from
this splendid emporium throughout
the entire day was large indeedi and
the purchases thry made were many
and rare. 1t would be hard for us to
estimate the number of ladies alone
who we're there to inspect and buy,
for while we are sure nearly every
one in this city was on hand, there
were vast numbers from the surroun-
ding country and neighboring towns
To say that the display of handsome
and valuable goods was beautiful and
grand is but a poor description, and
we leave each lady who was there to
tell her neighbor of the marvellous
beauty Of the display and the Won
derful %cheapness of the goods. Ex-
ceIsior is their watch word, and in
this instance did A. Summerleld d
Bro. excel any effort heretofore made
at an acceptable display 0 fiheir goods
to the pubic.

RICHARD JABEH MASON, the sub
ject of this brief notice was born in
Fairfield District, near the old Stone
Church on Jackson Greek, not far
from Winsborough, South Carolina,
On the lith of May, 1877, and moved
20 Mississippi in lS4l, and settled in
Grenada county. H%ejoined the Pres
,yterian Church at Old Troy about
he year lSl7 or 1913, of which he was
Il true and consistent member until
| lie time of his death. He was mar
| lied to Miss Jane Mcdowell on the
!7lh Of February, 1919, who died on
he 9th of April, 1876, Was again
married, this time to Miss Marguerite
\. Miller, o n The 10Th of February,
1857, who departed this life July It'll,
1879. On The 18th of August, 1881, he
vas married to Mrs. Lucie Il. Lille,
Win whom he spent the latter part
f his life, until he departed from this
World on the End of March, 1856.
Mr.. Mason was a gentleman OF a
'eliring disposition, preferring the
Iuir,udc of happy country home
with its beautiful and pleasant sur
roundings to the busy routine of city
life, where the greater part of his day.
we're spent in the enjoyment of the
full confidence and highest esteem OF
very person of his neighborhood,
As a husband he was always true and
faithful to the charge which had been
.On1ided to him. As a father he was
yer devoted and gentle, but never
forgetting the responsibility resting
tpon him in that capacity. AS a
lrjghbor and friend he was always
he same kind, rue, and whole soul
d sharer of the peace and happiness
fail around him. Liberal and hos
oitabic, few persons ever applied t.
lim without receiving that aid which
hey desired, and which was exten,
led with a free and open heart. Thus
Is he lived he passed away, surround
I'd by loving friends and relatives
who bear testimony to his many no
Die traits of character, and who bo"
with humility to the rulings of Him
who doeth all things well. May the
soul of Richard Jabez Mason rest
Iuietly and unmoIested until sum
moned to join the happy throne
which assemble around the great
white throne of the New Jerusalem.

The question of signing petitions
for selling whisky was once a matter
of individual conscience and personal
liberty, without the animadversious
or public opinion or The interdlct OF
The church. The laws of the State
have thrown around the business OF
selling liquor all the safeguards OF
prudence and wisdom that are re-
CURED and if the officers will see that
these laws are faithfully executed we
can do no more and should ask no
more. The puny efforts Of the over
Jealous temperance folks to degrade
men who sign petitions, will in the
end recoil upon those who set them
selves up AZ censOrs OF individual
rights and public morals. The rash.
ness of preachers in holding up good
citizens, moral men and business fac
tors in this or any other community
to derisiou and sCOrn, Is an assump-
ton of priestly arrogance more suita-
bic to the dark ages than this enlight-
ened day of progress. :,

it will make inroads upon some other

much like some of our church men or

to try to control the Amazon, but

Temperance as an independent
moral principle, has ever been APP
proved by civilized man. 1t is a law
unto itself, and carries with it., its
own reward. Bat enforced temper
ance has no moral merit, it is simply
submissive to the will Of others, be-
:ause others have the physical power
20 establish it. If P~ROHIBITIoN was
intended to operate upon the intern
perate only, there would be some
apology for its Lyrany, but it says to
iii alike, you shall not drink any
thing stronger than a dew-drop dis
ti.lled in the laboratory of night, fol-
we Heaven-inspired prohibition peo-
pie intend to remOve it from you, Sc
hat neither temperate 0 intem-
peaate can get it. How generous,
now christian-like, how statesman
like is this sort Of legislation, whetlI'
er in church or stale, to punish the
innocent and guilty alike! Perhaps
Il half dozen men in this town ust
whisky TOO freely, while there are
hundreds who drink II moderately
we must remove it by law from both
We prohibition fellows know what
we are about. We dared not to pass
such q despotic act in u churches
because it would raise a rumpus
amongst the brethren, for some o
them will drink when they want it
But we can do better than that; We
will unite our forces and get the leg
islature to prohibit its sale, and thai
will get our W recalcitrent mem
bers pinned down under the rule as
well as the topers outside, The GEM
US that engendered this rrnhihitioi
crusade against the right of drinking
selling or giving away Of wines, beer
whisky, etc, will rank in church Gun
ming and boldness with a Richelien
The more that we examine this beau
tilul piece of legislation called "Loca
OPTION" the more hypooritic. and ye
the more despotic it seems. Wehav'
every reason to believe that the peo
pie Of this town and county, wher
the time arrives, will snow it undeI
with an Alpine drift. Temperance
by consent of the will, is a strong anC
amiable virtue, but temperance en-
forced, is akin to recantation at thu
stake.

We understand that on last Satur-

We understand that on last Satur-
day night the honorable Harry l..
Seymour, manager of the Emma
Warren Combination, stated during
the evenings entertainment, that he
paid the GAZETTE for six thousand
programmes, when really he had
received but two thousand. AS all
questions have two sides, we may be
allowed to have a word to say on this
subject. On Monday morning Of last
week the said Seymour entered our
office and inquired what it would
cost him to have a thousand pro-
grammes printed. We told him two
dollars, to which he objected, stating
that he wanted athousand each night
during the week. We then told him
that we would print them for one
dollar and a half per thousand, pro-
vided we printed the six thousand or
! more. This proposition he accepted
in the presence of two or three par
ties. We printed the first and sec
oud thousand, at which he expressed
himself exceedingly well pleased,
saying that they were the neatest and
handsomest programmes he had got
ten anywhere on the road. After the
second thousand was delivered We
heard no more from seymour, MOI
| did we receive any notification thai
he wanted US to do no more work foI
him, We knew the reason, for on
opposition had sent for Seymour, anc
when the two had met a bargain Wa'
consnmmated, but upon what basil
We neither know nor care. We re
reiYed from seymour payment TO
two thousand programmes at TIT
rate OftW0 dollars per thousand, am
for no more. As far as a division q
work between the respective offices i
concerned, it is satisfactory 10 us, 70
we had other and more protitabl
work to occupy our time, but this di
vision was in bold and open contlic
with the contract between said Sey
, mour and ourself. Now, to this gen

that the travelling man or Woman
meele j. TO find, combined with The
hotel or restaurant where they tenn

h0me-a place not merely where you
eat, sleep and pay, but with these
feels the gracious pieasantness OF
what II, all countries is consecrated
as home-where one feels welcome
IN the kind social converse and unre-
strained, simple etiquette of the
house, where pOliteness seeks without
show to make the guest feelat ease and
happy. Such places are the unex-
pected oasis Of travelling people,
which they leave with regret as the
Orient tourist does the cool shades
and refreshing waters of an Arabian
desert. Such a place transient pco-
pie often say is Mrs. LOe wenstein's

the clean, soft beds, and above all the
genial disposition and unaffected

is the gratuitOus homage that stran'
