A Comparative View.

More comfort still was contained in the
result Of research into the records of the
past. 1t was revealed that the record for
thermometrical height in July was reached
July H. 1887, when the normal figure of
1O3 was recorded. So 1t will be seen the
weather is yet far from record-breaking,
either in intensity or duration. July, 1898,
was one of the hottest months ever expert
enced in the capital city. There were six
teen days out Of the thirty-one when the
thermometer recorded maximum of more
than 90 degrees. A temperature of 1O1 WA
reached July of that year. Last July,
however, there were but eight days of 90
degree weather. the highest being "a.

A DASTARDLY DEED.
Negro Knocks White Man Down
With Club and Beats Him
Into UncOnsciOusnp

Will Gsmbrill, a OF sged
Negro, yesterday afte. at
about 6 o'clock near the Air Line
trestle, severely beat Z. q. Raines,
a white man of Chick Springs,
over the head and face with a
club, knocking him down. Mr..
Raines remained unconscious for
sometime.
Mr.. Raines is employed as u
carpenter on Harry Deans houses
which are being built in West
Greenville near the old Gates
desk factory. Saturday afternoon
Mr. Raines said he ordered Gam
brill's son, who had been loafing
around the houses, to stop taking
off the pieces of plank, shingles,
etc, that were left on the ground.
Yesterday afternoon, Gambrill, in
company with four or five of his
friends, met Raines near the Air
Line trestle. Gambrill had few
hot words with Raines about
what had been said to his son
and without further warming hit
him strong blow over the head
with club, knocking him down.
1t is said that Gambrill then
took his club and dealt Raines
several blows over the face, con-
tinuing his beastly work until
b. M. Millwood, white man who
was passing near, came to Raines'
assistance.
Mr.. Milwood stated that when
he arrived upon the scene there
were at least seven or eight Ne
groes gathered around Raines
and that several of them were
assisting him in beating Raines.

from Raines," said Milwood, "but

grabbed some pieces of brick and
began throwing them at the Ne.
groes. Finally | succeeded in
rescuing Raines, and while he
was still unconscious | carried
him to a house nearby, where
after bathing his wounds end
bruises, Raines regained con
sciousness.
About 9 o'clock Raines notified

Why i Am PrOhibitiOnist.
Why | am a prohibitionist, is
because | see so much evil re-
suit from the use Of liquor. Mr..
-. r. NJ" seems to be afraid
some ono will die from snake
bite. Is there nothing to cure
snake bites but liquor and Is
there not an average of one
hundred killed by the use of
liquor to one snake bite. Then
we must pay men big salaries
to sit up in the dispensary to
rob the father and son of what
they have. While the dispen-
sary is an act of the State Of
ticers, and they have aimed all
for the best for the people, they
made a mistake on that point.
The mothers intention was to
keep the milk in the jar so the
children couldn't waste IL but
she made a mistake and poured
it out and the children played
in it. Look at the blind tigers.
/ dU not wonder at u decrease
in the sale Of dispensary liquors.
If you will only visit some of
the cities and towns of the State
you will find how it goes. How
many blind tigers are there in
our towns to day? Visit our
town depots and SEQ the express
cars unloaded and how many
jugs, demijohns and kegs are
put off, for some one, that the
State gets no license for. These
things can be proved. You
know the dispensary law is it
carried out? | have already
proved that our State officials
are responsible for the lives and
suffering caused by intoXicants
and now, Mr.. 81. r. NJ. ;" our
arguments are before the public
and | will let the public say if

dency to the promotion of our

National constitution. Now, let
us come together as a people,

and to one end and work to-
gether for the greatest good to
the greatest number and pro-
mote that which will protect
our civil, political, social and
religious liberty. ] do not stand
as prohibitionist to defeat the
dispensary law, but to control
liquor. If we can have q law
to control liquor, very well but
if not, let us come together, like
men, and put it away from us,
then we may go to a political
meeting and have no fear of
