United States and incorporated into the body of the state constitution
 "Offical messages of the governor of South Carolina, quoted by Senator Moody in his Seals hall address, were quoted freely in favor of the great value of the law to the state.
 q appeal to all persons in this large con- gregation to acquaint yourselves with the features of the dispensary bill and com municate with the honorable senator and representatives of Jefferson county your es- innate of its merits. If your judgment ap- proves, ask them, as your representative, to support the measure.
 T betray no confidence, I presume, when l repeat what Senator Moody stated in the address to which l have referred, namely, that the bill had been laid over until after the recess, that the assembly men might sound the respective communities on the subject The senator from Jefferson would support the bill if convinced it was in &C., cord with the wishes of his constituents
 "There are two material interests that the people of Birmingham and vicinity are es- pecially desirous to conserve-namely, capital and labor. The open saloon is the enemy of both Capital is timid to ven- ture where there is crime and disorder. It seeks investment where peace security and good municipal government are assured.
 The suppression of the open saloon means the protection of labor. Instead of wages being squandered they will appear in sav- ings banks, the purchase of comfortable homes, and the improved condition in every particular of the industrial population.
 Industrial Advantages
 "I believe the operation of the measure in behalf of Birmingham and the surround ing district would recondition the social and industrial advantages of the city, and >sst 1t forward twenty-five years
 "l would call attention in conclusion to the fact that under the provisions of ths bill-whatever revenue accrues from the sale of liquor goes into the treasury of the city. The only person who can object to the bill on the lone plane of revenue is the present proprietor of the saloon. But read the bill and join in petition to the honorable senator and representatives of Jefferson county to give it fheir support"
 The ministers propose to make an active campaign in Jefferson county, which may spread to other portions of the state. They claim that Birmingham and Jefferson coun- ty should take the lead and their plan is 70 have as many voters as possible write the local representatives endorsing the bill.

land is trying to buy the Galapagos

Panama where the proposed canal would

England TO control the western entrance

HOW WILL THEY voTE9

There are hundreds OF sincere men
who voted for Mckinley in 1896 be-
cause they opposed free coinage who
are much more antagonistic to Nc
Kinley's policy of Imperialism than they
ever were to free silver. What will
these men do in 1900? They embrace
many native Americans and more for
eign born citizens, particularly Ger
mans. 1t is certain that Bryan will
be nominated on an anti-imperialistic
platform plus the reaffirmation of the
Chicago platform, and that Mckinley
will be renomianted on an inlperialistic
program plus the st. Louis platform
They will not wish to vote for Bryan
and free silver though they will wish
to vote for his anti-imperialism. They
will not wish to vote for Mckinley and
his miiitarism, though they will desire
TO maintain the gold standard. There are
some who advocate a separate party with
candidate standing on a single plank
against imperialism, but sensible mer
recognize that such ticket would b.
another Palmer and Buckner tiasco.
1t may be safely predicted that these
men will each for himself decide wheth-
or he most breads militaris1n or free
silver, and what he regards as the
paramount issue in 1900. There are
indications that they are tending to Bry-
an. In the Anti ImpeTialistic Confer
ence in Chicago. this resolution was
adopted:
Those who dispute about standards
OF value while the foundation of the
Republic is undermined viii be listened
to as little as those who would wrangle
about the small economics of the house
hold while the house is on fire. The train
ing OF a great people for century. the
aspiration for liberty of a vast immigra-
ton who have made their homes here,
are forces that will hurl aside those
who in the delirium Of conquest seek 70
destroy the character of ON institu-
tons"
Writing Of the conference and the
spirit that controlled it, Mr.. Horace
White, one of the ablest gold standard
writer's in America, said:
Finally, it was determined that the
league would not allow the money qlies-
ton TO serve as a buffer between Me-
Kinley and the anti-imperialist forces.
They intend first to secure the founda-
ton stone Of the republic, which Is
the principle of self-governmellt, and
not TO waste precious time-time which
can never be recalled-in quarrels over
standards of value. In this determine
tion Mr.. Townc, the secretary or the
national bimetalic organization and the
most prominent man in its next to Mr..
Bryan, was as emphatic as Carl Schurz.
Edwin Burritt Smith, Edward -AtlSin-
son, and Louis II. Enrich, all of whom
have been hitherto foremost in uphold
ing the banner Of sound money"
These are straws which seem 10
show that the wind is blowing in the
right direction.
