on its own links 35 up last Saturday
Is expected 10 play on the local INKS
Saturday. There is some talk of a
ladies team accompanying the Caro-
linians to play a match with a team
of ladies of the Savannah Golf Club.

| GREAT JOINT DISCUSSION
Speakers Heard by a Large and
Appreciative Crowd.

A crowd Of several hundred peo-
pie assembled on the public square
last night to hear the joint discus
sion between Hon. j. Hall Bowman
and Attorney W. II. Walne on the
prohibition question. The discus
sion was opened for the antis by
Mr.. Bowman, who for forty minutes
entertained his hearers with clear
and logical presentation of the anti
side Of the question. He assigned
three reasons for his opposition to
local option. First, that 1t is Inn
practical. Second, that it is wrong
in principle. Third, that 1t tends to
union of church and state.
Mr.. Walne replied in an address
OF one hour in which he made very
forceful argument in favor of pro-
hibition. He answered the argu-
ment submitted by his opponent in
fair and impartial manner AS to
local option being impractical he
said it was In force in about eighty
counties In the state and that the
law was better enforced than many
of the regulative laws of the land.
The audience appeared to be
equally divided between the pros
and autis, and each speaker was
generously applanded when he
would score telling point.
The Firemenis band diseoursed
several selections for the entertain
ment of the crowd before the speak
ing commenced
Tonight at the same place Hon.
Barry Miller, anti and Rev. Gran
