Lake City MelhOdiStS Rejoice at the
Completion OF Their Sanctuary.

LAKE CITY, Nov. p: The
new Methodist church has been
completed and it is beauty.
Beyond question it is the pref
tiest church in Williamsburg
county and would be an orna-
ment to any town. 1t is of wood
and the cost was about $4,000.
On Sunday,No 10 it was dedicat-
ed. The interesting services were
conducted by Rev j B Traywick,
TntQse pastorate the house
was built. "A very large congre-
CATION was foresent and every
number of the programme was
given close and respectful
attention. The y, formal cere'
monies were simplex but impres.
sive. The membership and the
pastor are to be heah.tily con,
graduated upon the building,
completion and furnishing such
a creditable structure in2 which
to worship. The indications
seem to be that this church. will
in the near future be ma de a
station. The increasing pros,
perity and liberality of the m: EN-.
bership point to the conclus ion
that a pastor can be supported
and cared for by this one chure h.

Prohibition In Maine.

In 1916 the State of Maine, dis
satisfied and disgusted with the
saloons and distilleries that were
overrunniDg and cursing the State,
passed a prohibition law for the en-.
tire State. In 1851 they passed
what has come to be known as the
"Maine Law" The vote for it was
IS to 10 in the senate and sc to 40
in the house. Maine had been
drinking up every twenty years an
amount equal to the entire taxable
property of the State.
Every time the people have voted
Oh it since then they have sustained
the law by overwhelming majorities.
In 1884 the Legislature of the State
submitted constitutional amend.
ment prohibiting the manufacture
and sale of liquor in the State. II
was great battle. The vote was
.10,7S3 for the amendment and
S,3,S1l against it, Every county in
the State gave a majority for it.
Some eminent opinions on the law
at;e as follows:
! Senator Hale: Name people be-
lieFe in prohibition because they are
everN day witnesses to its good eff
fects.>
Senator Frye: 1 can and do, from
my OWN personal observation, un,
hesltatingly affirm that the con-
sumption of intoxicating liquors in
Maine is noh one-fourth so great as
it was twenty wears ago.
Maine prospering under her law.
North Carolina. wants State law
an amendment prohibiting liquor in
the State. We are ready for it. Now
is the time to strike.
DR. J j Hall, of Fayetteville, who
lived for several years in Maine un-
der the State prohibition law, and
helped to get constitutional prohi'
bition for the Pine Tree State, says
of the movement for State prohibi,
tion in North Carolina: "Every
good citizen should appreciate the
position the governor has>taken. The
idea that we should wait for the op.
perfume time is deluSive. Someone
might have objected to COD AL
mighty issuing the Ten Command,
ments, by saying: The world was
not then ready for such laws. There
must be a standard for such right
eousness. Prohibition is the stand
ard upon the liquor question. N

BAIL FIXED FOR CoRDovA
Father of Bovine Girl Changed His At
titude Toward Accused

j. Frank Cordova, the ex-minister who
eloped twice with Miss Julia Bovine. had
bail fixed in New Brunswick. N T nv
Judge Strong yesterday at 81 1900 1000 for
each conviction pending the result of the
prisoners appeal to the court Of errors for
a new trial.
J. Conover Bovine, father of the girl
whose 1nfatuation for the clergyman led
her to leave home for him, yesterday ex-
perienced change of heart. Previously
he had threatened to shoot Cordova on
sight Yesterday he exerted himself to
procure the required bail His daughters
pleas for the man she Hoves, and who left
his wife and family for her, have changed
the fathers attitude.
Cordova doubtless will not be removed
to state prison until April 2, when the re-
suit of his appeal will be known. Should
he obtain bail he will go at once to Mexico
where his family made many friends who
are expected to aid him financially in his
trouble.
restaurant keeper Of this city yester-
day offered Julia Bovine position in his
establishment at 81 week. She declined
the offer, saying she wished to be near
Cordova, who seems worried over nothing
excepting what may happen to Julia.

them are of such great size as to show
race of men far larger than the rather
small-boned, slender Indians known to our
