THE SALOON
MUST GO"
G. T. HUGHES, ESQ.,, WITH THIS
BURNING THEME AS HIS TEXT,
Enthuses a Large Audience, And
Starts a Tidal Wave for Temper.
anee Legislation That viii
Spread This County Over.

George T. Hughes, Esq, spoke in the
Circuit Court room Monday and those
who heard him will not soon forget
that fact. And many who did not hear
him will have cause to remember it:
for it will tell upon the business Of
some of them, and upon the political
fortunes of others of them. And Mr.
Hughes will perhaps have some trouble
forgetting it himself; for, If he don't
mind, he committed the Bryan act and
nominated himself to office. He SC
enthused his audience, so convicted
them of the righteousness of his cause
so impressed them with the urgency OF
action, and the necessity of caution,
and the need for Men, that nearly with
one accord the large audience turned
upon him and said, Behold, Thou Art
the Man." What he will do about it,
is the question. He is a lawyer with
a large practice, man of large affairs,
and man who shrinks from political
contests; it would be sacrifice Of bus
mess interests and personal taste and
feeling, should Mr.. Hughes consent to
stand for the Senate; but when ones
country calls and duty demands, if the
call is loud and the duty clear no man
of the right mold can put it aside with
an easy conscience.
Mr.. Hughes speech was tenn.
pered with that clearness and force
and moderation which always charac.
terizes his argument. He was perhaps
more earnest than usual, for If there is
one subject which reaches him to the
marrow bone, 1t is the question he was
reviewing. But he said never a word
of denunciation or vindictiveness; he
simply stated plain facts; but he mar
shalled them in such array, and
hurled them with such force of logic
and eloquence, that it set the very
nerves of his hearers on fire to be up
and doing.
1t was very busy day, and the
room was much too small, and there
were hundreds who failed to hear Mr..
Hughes who want to hear him, and
an effort will be made to have him
speak again, perhaps at the Taber-
nacle, in the near future.
Like most other business institu-
lions, the Herald was overrun with

thing for him, we do not want him in
our school,"
These rules, he said. meant no more
nor less than they said; they were few
and simple, and they were made to be
obeyed. He reminded the boys that
permission to leave the premises at
night to go to church, meant to go
to church, and not to go visiting; and
to go visiting instead of church, meant
expulsion. Not expulsion for going
visiting, he explained; but for violat-
ing your word of honor as a gentle
IA. The cards were then circulated
and signed, every boy signing for him
self; it being personal pledge of the
boy, the boy and not the parent must do
the signing. About 140 signed Wednesday
morning. There were others expected to
come in and sign at the afternoon exer-
cises; and there are many others still
who have sent in their names and will
enter within the next few days. The
enrolment by this time next week will
doubtless be over two hundred. The
enrolment the first day of the last
term was one hundred andfive. Wednes-
day morning, it was about 140, which to-
gether with the afternoons enroll
ment will make the enrolment for the
first day Of this term about 500 larger
than last year.
Uncle San did a mighty kind and
generous deed when it gave these
beautiful grounds and magnificent
buildings for educational purposes;
and Columbia was doubly fortunate
when it secured the services of Messrs.
Hardy and Edgerton to further this
grand work

NEW YORK, Aug. S0-Such a well
come as seldom in this country's his
tory has been accorded to a private
citizen was given to William Jennings
Bryan at Madison Square Garden to-
night in the celebration of his return
from years absence in foreign trav-
ell.
AS the guest of the Commercial
Travellers Antitrust League, Mr.. Bry-
an was greeted by more than 10000
persons who filled the great structure
from floor to upper gallery. At the
same time the streets and avenues out
side the Garden were checked for
blocks by other thousands who stood
patiently for hours for the privilege of
even getting a glance at the distin-
guished visitor.
The interior Of the Garden was a
waving sea of color. Every person
in the audience had been provided with
a miniature American flag, and every
cheer from 10000 Threats was accen-
tuated by the waving of 10000 tisy
STATS bearing the stars and stripes.
When Chairman Tom L. Johnson, in
his introduction of Mr.. Bryan, referred
to the guest of the evening as ''the
first citizen, if not the first official of
the land-not yet the first Official"
and Mr.. Bryan rose, the great gather
ing broke out in unrestrained cheer
ing. while the band played Hail to the
Chief"
So touched was Mr.. Bryan by the
welcome that as he stood waiting for
the cheers to subside his eyes filled
with tears, and he strobe nervously
from side to side of the narrow plat
form.
How can / thank you for this well
come home?" he said. MY heart would
be ungrateful if it did not consecrate
itself to your service. 1t was kind to
prepare this reception. 1t was kind
of Gov. Folk to come here all the way
from Missouri. 1t was kind of Tom
Johnson, that example of moral cour-
age we so much need in this country,
to lend his presence here. 1t was kind
in you to fully recompense me in be-
ing absent so long from my native
land. thank you. l return to the
land of my birth more proud of my cit
lzenship than ever before"

MILITARY ACAD-
Envy OPENING
SENATOR cARMAcK DELIVERS
HIS SPLENDID ADDRESS ON
CHARACTER"
To the Student Body and Their Visit
ing Friends.-EnroIIment Fifty
Per Cent Larger Than
Last Year.

The opening exercises of The Co.
lumbia Military Academy were held in
the main building Wednesday, quite
a large audience being present, at
tracted by their interest in the school,
and the announcement that Senator
Carmack would be the orator of the
day.
Prof. Hardy welcomed the visitors,
in short talk, expressing his pleas
ure and gratitude at the very kind
and generous support Columbia had
shown all the while in the success of
the school, and bespeaking for their eff
forts the same kindly spirit in the
future He wished to cultivate be-
tween Columbia and this school a mu-
tual feeling that they were one;
reciprocity of interest; and wherever
he or any of his faculty had been this
summer, they had talked Columbia;
and in this personal way, and through
their advertising matter they were
bringing Columbia to the attention,
and in a most attractive manner, of
people who had never heard OF Column
bia before. In this and other ways he
said he hoped for the school to be of
great benefit to the upbuilding and
prosperity of Columbia, and he hoped
that Columbia would always feel
like pride and interest in its school;
which, he said, they intended to make
the leading school of its class in the
South.
Prof. Hardy then congratulated the
audience upon the literary treat they
had in store, and presented Senator
Carmack.
Senator Carmack was in good form
and delivered his matchless address in
splendid style. We fancy it must be
a pleasure to speak such eloquent
words of wisdom to young men who
young men did to that address; and
we doubt not in the least that these
brave, kindly, strong words fell in
good places. and will rebound to the
building and strengthening of charac-
ter, and help on to a glorious success
some young life now among that stu
dent body.
After the address of the day Revs.
Cherry, Provine and Capers were in
troduced to the students and responded
in brief remarks. Then Prof Hardy
announced the terms upon which the
students would be received. He read
from the pledge cards which every |
cadet would be required to sign.
These cards pledge the signers,
upon their word of honor as
gentlemen, not to leave the |
premises after dark, without per-
mission; not to drink, nor have
in their rooms or their possession, any
intoxicating drinks of any kind not !
to engage in any game of chance, or to
nave in their rooms or in possession
any cards or gambling device of any I
Kind. No boy can matriculate at this
school without signing one of these
cards and promising thereby, upon
his word of honor as gentleman, to
obey these rules. "And once ne vio-
lates his word of honor as gentleman,
Just one time, said Prof. Hardy, then
we part company with him. Because"
ne said, IF boy has no regard for
MS word of honor, we can DO nothing
Tor him; and unless we can do some
