Dearest you have left US,
Lonely are our hearts today,

You have crossed the cold dark river,
Angels hold you by the hands,
You are safe from storms forever,
Safe within that promised land.
How we will miss your gentle footsteps,
Miss each kind and gentle word,
No more in the lonely household,

Dear, oh how we loved you,
No pen can write, no tongue can tell,
But the gentle Shepherd called you,
We must bid long farewell.
Far alas the Saviour called him,
Called him from this world of war;
And his spirit has ascended,
From this earthly home below.
So fare thee well our dear one,
You have only gone before;
For if we are but as faithful,
We shall reach the golden shore.

Little Mountain Reunion.

It is claimed that the reunion OF
the students of Newberry College
held at Little Mountain last Friday

of persons present at from 4,5OO to
5000, and of this number the Co.

road brought not less than 1,50o and
the balance came by private convey
snces from Newberry, Fairfield,
Richland, saluds and Lexington
counties.
The music for the occasion was
furnished by a band of stringed in
struments and the College GIee Club.
The exercises were opened by the
address of welcome delivered by r.
W. Frick, Jr., who graduated from
Newberry at the session just closed.
Hon. G. M. E6rd, of Lexington, then
spoke on the subject of the work OF
the college and it's claims. DR.. James
A. B. Scherer, President of Newberry
College, made an interesting address
in which he expressed much crafty
cation at the unusually bright out
look of the college for tie coming

Mr.. J. 81. Shealy was reelected

Tillman On the Dispensary

4a!!mao VI gAe 01spe0saGy.
There was very good attendance
at the liquor discussion at Edge6eld
on August S. State Senator Garrett
Talbert, Representatives Nicholson
and Devore, ex-Solicitor Thurmond,
Col. Jasper Tslbert and Senator B.
r. Tillmsn were the speakers.
Tillman favored the dispenssry and
insisted that the committee do some
thing at Spartanburg. He asked
Evans, Towill and Boykin to help
clear away the talk about themselves.
He had no faith in the talk about
the board of control, but thought
they ought to help the committee.
He wanted an explanation as to why
it is necessary to keep such a large
stock at the dispensary when it is on
a cash basis and goods can be order
ed out and distributed in thirty days.
The committee ought to give light
before the elections are held.
Tillman said that unless the dis.
pensary system is improved, and be
is willing to frame amendments to
improve it, he will stump the State
against it, if his health will permit.
he asserted that dispenssry has been
in charge of the Conservatives and
the legislature has not been friendly
to the dispensary.

tive Nicholson are ardent prohibition.

An Outlaw.

When the Legislature OF South
Carolina, by enacting the dispensary
law, made the private citizen who sold
or would sell liquor in the State con-
trary to the dispensary law and out
law, it took q strong an safe po-
sition. When it provided that any
county in the State which would re-
move the dispensary from its borders
would be taxed two mills extra to
create a fund to protect the people
of such county from the outlaw, it
indicated to some extent at least it's
estimate of the diabolical character
of the outlaw. Every constable
which has ever been put into the
service of the State and every dollar
that has been paid out for such
service may be put in evidence that
the man who sells or offers for sale
liquors in any other way than
through the dispensary is an outlaw.
The age in which We live regards the
liquor tra6c as wrong. Even those
who believe the dispenssry the best
method of buying and selling it see
it's evil effects on every side, and
many of them today are afraid that
| if the dispensary WAS removed from
the State the outlaw would be upon
rs at every cross road. But why
this alarm? Under our new consti.
tuition we are protected from such q
misfortune, as I see it. As matter
of fact, the outlaw is in evidence to
day in our State as perhaps never
before. Frequently I am told that
leading business men find a way to
supply certain customers without
reference to the dispensary law. To
! my certain knowledge a State con-
stable failed to appear in case be-
| fore one of our circuit courts against
| an outlaw as seen by the dispensssy
law.
By casting the dispensaryout we
will find ourselves in position to
make the liquor business an outlaw
and then with consistency maintain
the cause Of prohibition. Prohibition,
says one of our Southern editors, zig
the logical way of dealing with the
whiskey evil. It makes the business
! an outlaw, and makes the law a de-
fender of the purity of the people.
rather than defender of the traffic

eale of liquors as beverage to be
proper and right, will doubtless ad-
NIT that Insofar as the dispensary

ing liquor, it has failed. On the
