The Elks Raising Money.

The Street Fair Committee. of the Elks is very busy these days raising money by subscription from the mer- chants to put on the Street Fair on De- tober l4th. The members are meeting with fairly good success, though some of the subscriptions are small. k. K. Kornegay of the Hotel Albert gave $l0o and stands ready to give more If nee essary. This fair will be a great thing for Selma and the merchants and busi- ness men will stand in their own light if they do not contribute literally to the fund. Thousands of people will be brought to Selma from the contiguous territory and every one that comes to the city will leave from So to SlO0. If they do not come to Selma, they vii! go to fairs in nearby cities. and that much money will be carried away from the channels of local trade. to swell the commerce of rival cities.
 The Elks nave placed twelve boxes in different places about the city. and the voting contest began today for the Queen of the Fair. As yet, there are no announced candidates, but as the voting commences today and vote only costs 10 cents. the names of the different young ladies who will contest for the honor will be made known and their admirers among the young men of the city will go to work in dead earn est to see that the favorite they are backing wins. The contest promises to be an exceedingly lively one.
 The Elks have employed Mr. W. H. Rice of Chicago, a Street Fair promo ter, to take charge of getting up the Fair. He Is expected to arrive some time in the next ten days or two weeks and then the work of getting up the big Elks' Street Fair will proceed in earn est The Elks will spare no pains or expense to make the fair big success.

GRADY ON LIQUOR.

Tonight it enters an humble
home, strikes the roses from
woman's cheeks, and tomorrow it
challenges the republic in the
halls of congress. To-day it strikes
crust from the lips of starving
child, and tomorrow levies trib-
ute from the government itself.
There is no cottage in this city
humble enough to escape it, no
place strong enough to shut it out.
1t defes the law when it cannot
coerce suffrage. 1t is flexible to
cajole, but merciless in victory.
1t is the moral enemy of peace and
order, despoiler of men and terror
of women, the demon that has dug
more graves and sent more souls
uhprepared to judgment than all
the pestilences that have wasted
lives since God sent the plagues
to Egypt, and all wars since Josh
ia stood before Jericho. It comes
to ruin, and yet it shall profit
mainly by the ruin of your sons
and mine. 1t comes 20 mislead
human souls and crush human
hearts under its rumbling wheels.
1t comes to bring gray-haired
mothers down to shame. 1t comes
to change wife's love into des-
pair and her pride into shame. 1t
comes to still the laughter on the
lips of little children. 1t comes
to stifle all the music of home, fill
it with silence and desolation. 1t
comes to ruin your boy and mine,
to wreck your home, and it knows
it must measure it's prosperity by
the swiftness and certainty with
which it wrecks this world.
