Whether a soldier may vote depends
on the laws of the state in which he Is

the men to acquire residence, while
others do not. The war department
says that 1t has been the experience
of years that the soldiers seldom

MOT since 1893 has the total United
~ States pensioners been so low as
1t is at present. This fact Is made
known In a report by the commission
err of pensions, recently issued and
the report shows that steady decline
has set in, death cutting heavily into
the ranks in the last year. The 1908
total is 951, 687, and 1t was said that
in all probability this will shrink to
100000 within another year.
Four years ago the high water mark
in pensions was reached. For a few
days in August, 1904, there were more
than 100000 persons on the rolls.
These figures, however, do not appear
in the official reports, as the official
record of 1904 gives an average OF
only 994,702. There were 99S,441 pen

Aroused New Interest.

all the churches of Clinton were clos

might attend the Temperance Rally
at the Carolina Memorial chapel of the
Thornwell orphanage. The minis

In the exercises, and n very large au
dience indicated the general interest
aroused. The speakers were the
Hon. G.. G. Featherstone and the Rev.
w. e. Thayer. Both gentlemen made
excellent and forceful addresses and
held the interest of the crowd.
Mr.. Featherstone was already
known in Clinton where he has many
warm admirers. Mr.. Thayer was
heard by Clinton audience for the
first time and made a decided i'm
preston by his clear incisive reason
ing and his pleasing manner There
is little doubt that the meeting was of
decided value to the cause of proh-
bition in Laurens county because it
aroused the interest and enlisted the
