MOCK TRIAL A
GREAT SUCCESS


Ladies Realize Handsome Profit
AFFAIR Well Attended and
Greatly Enjoyed
One of the largest crowds, il not
the largest, that ever assembled Ia
Odd Fellaws' hall, was present We'd
nesday evening to witness the Mock
Trial." Sarah Ann Spookendyke vs..
Josiah Allen (poet), and many also
we're there in time to do their share
toward devouring the chicken-pie
and other good things provided by
the Ladies Aid and their friends.
The affair was given under the au-
spices Of the Ladies Aid Society of.
the NJ. e. church, and was a pro-
nounced success both socially and f.
nancially. Lack of space and time
will not permit us to give it the men
ton it deserves, but to say that the
crowd which had gathered to greet
the parties to the great and mani
testify Important legal case fraught
with so much significance to the COM
munity, were well pleased, is putting
it mildly.
Poor Mary Ann, carcworn, md al
most sick as tle result of disappoint-
ment in her love affairs, sat by her
attorney, downcast and cherries,
listening attentively to every word
uttered against her by the defense,
an occasional smile passing over her
face when it was apparent to her
that she had scored a point. Gaily
dressed, as she was, made her q
"mark for every eye in the house, =
and being conscious Of this, it only
added to her misery. The defendant
in the case sat on the other side of
the room, Indifferent and scornful,
but paying close attention to the evil
dence introduced
All taking part were well prepar
ed and qualified to testify as to what
they knew about the case, and to
those appearing in costume especial
credit is due.
The steamer Buckeye came in early
in the evening with an excursion
party from Orcas island, the excur
sionists coming here for the purpose
of hearing the distressing case.
The profits, clear of all expenses,
were $64.25. The pastor and mem
bers of the church wish to express
their thanks to all who took part and
helped to make the results so profit
able. 1t encourages those who have
the interests of the community at
heart to have SO generous response
to the call for help in their work.

Is Tillman Responsible

To Senator B. R. Tillmsn certainly belongs
credit for the dispensary law, aud for the
beneficial effects OF that law he deserves the
grateful thanks OF al prohibition and tenn
perate people.
But 10 Mr.. Tillman responsible for the et
forts now being made by the license advo'
Gates TO vote out the dispensary In various
counties? We think II entirely probable thai
that he IL. He, like the devil, quotes Scrip
ture. Aud these quotations were Intended 10
prove tina the Bible does not discourage the
drinking OF In toxicants. And various OF bis
speeches would lead to believe that be thinks
q little liquor does good and not harm.
Well, now, II Mr.. Tillman Is correct In prov
ing thai the Bible does not discourage the
drinking of intoxicants, and II 1t is not wrong
10 drink dlspensary stock. then the existing
restraints or limitations on the sale of liquor
is wrong. and the law should be repealed.
II II 10 not against divine command and is
not against humane interest and morality, TO
drink liquor. where is the Justice or the farm
ers in restricting the vale Of liquor!
GfMr. Tilimsn's speeches are rightly inter.
pretsd, any bar to the sale OF LIQUOR is wrong.
and the advocates OF free liquor are justified
In their demand for the repeal OF the license
law.

h%ibitionists who are shivering In the ptltti.

Advertising Notes.

While you are waiting to "get
around" to doing some advertising,
the other fellow may "get ahead"
with his.
A few dollars added to the cost of an
advertisement may turn probable fall
ure into certain success.
Advertising Is as much Of a necessity
in modern business as any other "mod-
ern convenience.
The merchant who talks business IN
his advertising usually gets business
from 1t.
Put the crisp freshness Of autumn
mornings into your fall advertisements
The untruthfuI advertiser deceives
no one 30 much as himself.

To Vote 1t Out,

It has been said that The popular reaction
In favor OF license and less restrictions on the
sale OF liquor is 80 great that the fate of the
dispensary is IN The balance. In our W
opinion. the fate OF the dispspsary depends
entirely on the number OF alleged prohibi.
ionists who vote With the liesnse people.
We know where 10 npd the licencs people,
But who can tell where the prohibittonits
can be tound! n they should be found In
the license camp the result can be easily fore=
told.

Of dollars to the cotton growers of the
south. 49,.
According to information received
in Atlanta from New Orleans, the agri.
cultural bureau was preparing to in
augurate a new and entirely uuexpect.
ed system in the matter of estimating
the number of bales and one that was
calculated to have q decidedly bearish
effect upon the market. Instead of
estimating the crop on the basis Of 500
pounds to the bale, which Ia in keep
ing with the established methods Of
the bureau, 1t was reported that it was
intended 10 allow only about ATS
pounds to each bale.
Such an estimate, says Secretary
Richard Cheatham, Of the Southern
Cotton association, would have been
grossly misleading, increasing the
The number of estimated bales over 5
per cent and would have resulted In a
loss. of perhaps twenty-five million dol
lars to southern cotton growers.
Immediately after the news Of the
contemplated action of the ~agricultu-
raj bureau was received, President Jor-
dan held q hasty conference IN Allan
+! ia, which resulted in his departure for
Washington at doom Sunday. He
reached his destination Monday morn

told in the following telegram, receiv.

was received: q

Following the reception Of the above
information, Mr.. Hayne, of New Or

methods as pursued in previous years.
It was this that resulted in the latter's
