The State board of education, which
recently met and adopted a number
of new school books, is coming in for
a good deal of cussing at the hands of
the people.
They have placed the burden of
buying new books outright upon the
people; they have adopted series of
high priced books; they have let creep
into the list, books of a partisan and
sectional character, books by authors
who are enemies to the South; they
recommended an expensive State de-
pository, which must come out of the
pockets of the people; they have
made moonshine of Supt. Martins
campaign pledges to change books
as little as possible. All in al: the
board could hardly have done worse
if it had tried ever so hard. See the
list elsewhere in this issue.

TIE ONE ISSUE.

Whiskey is to be the leading issue
in the campaign of this county. 1t is
made so by the overwhelming senui-
ment of the people and by the action
of the County Executive Committee.
The issue is not of our making; we
would have had it otherwise, but since
the issue is made, let it be fought out
in fair and square legitimate way.
The Legislature about to be chosen
must settle the vexed problem and
the people must see to it that they
are truly represented upon this mat
ter. When issues are up for settle
ment, straddlers must take back
seat. Candidates for the Legislature
must state in unequivocal language
their position upon this one absorbing
issue. A man is either prohibition
ist, dispensaryite, local optionist or
high license advocate. A great many
men in this county give adherence to
the doctrine that prohibition is prac-
tical and will prohibit; others believe
in the old license system as the safest
way of regulating the sale of whiskey;
others take the view that each county
should be the sole judge as to the
traffic, within its borders; while a
great many people believe firmly that
the dispsnsary can be put above sus-
picion through the good sense and
patriotism of the people and that
when thus freed of the suspicious,
real or unreal, is the very best soiu-
tion Of this problem, and is a step in
the direction of practical prohibition.
Now, here We have four distinct and
divergent views on this question.
So far the candidates announced for
the house, who have given expression at
all on the subject, stand for the dis
pensary, purified and purged of the
possibility of wrong doing. =
We believe that the other views
shoald be represented On the stump
IN the discussion that must be had on
this question. Why should rot this
question be fought out in a manly
way on the stump? Let the prohibi-
tionists put up their men, the local
optionists theirs and the license men
their candidate. Let these meet
upon the husting. Let the issue be
clearly made. No evasion! Where
do you stand? Let the people have
the opportunity to make choice on
the issue. Let US have all views
represented by strong, clean advo-
Gates and when the people have
spoken, let us stand by the majority
and endeavor earnestly to make their
verdict effective. Come out, you pro-
hibitionists! Come out, you local
optionist! Come out, dispensaryite!
Come out high license advocate!
Give the people the chance of voting
their conviction upon the issue, and
when it is over let there be no grum-
bling.

poor circulation and q general low

things to do to get rid Of the color are
to strengthen the physical state and
improve the circulation. The latter
Is done locally, by massage and To-
tons. while diet and certain foods will
have much to do toward changing the
condition of the blood. Inflammation
and dilation Of the nose always indi-
cate an unhealthy internal condition.
So many internal difficulties may
cause this Disagreement that It Is
necessary, first, to find its origin Poor
circulation, digestive troubles, chronic
Intestinal arrangement and nervous
diseases-all these will inhame the

that too much alcohol will produce
