PASSED PROHIBITION
BY TRUCE IN HOUSE
Vote Finally Reached After Con :
fereHce of Leaders on
Both Sides.
By Ballot of 58 to 40 the State
wide Bill Passed-By Vote of
81 to IS the Test Vote
Was Taken for Clos.
ing Dispensaries.

The house last night passed
the State wide prohibition bill
and the bill providing for the
closing of the several county dis
pensaries. The vote on these
bills was taken after an agree
ment betweent the local optionists
and the prohibitionists.
The passage Of these two bills
was not secured until there had
been five days of determined
hghC On both sides, and while the
result was not a surprise, it is
generally believed that no agree
ment would have been reached
but for the fear of the members
that they would not have been
able to 60 home Saturday.
The stand taken by the prohi-
bitionists that the supply bill
should not pass until the prohi-
bition bill had been disposed of
was dropped and the position
taken by the local optionists that
there would be no vote on the
prohibition bill before Saturday
was receded from.
Thus both sides conceded
points. but not until the bill had
reached stage when it was i'm
possible for it to pass the senate
unless the members stayed over
next week.
The vote on the passage of bill
IS, which was the test bill and
provided for the closing of dis
pensaries of the state on July 1,
1909, ,swas So to 40, with a number
of pairs. The vote on the pass
age of the general prohibition
bill vas 50 to IS.
1t became known early in the
morning session that there would
be an agreement reached, and
the vote was not a surprise to
either side. The only question
confronting the members was
the adjournment Saturday, and
upon this the majority on both
sides were insistent. Therefore
they were willing to give the pro-
hibition bill right of way il the
supply bill could be p} tsefl, and
realizing that every COZ 49,

1ts ob5eets are. first TO advance
the interests of Cheraw in q com.
mercial and social way" and sec
ondly, to encourage friendly re
lations among men of different
avocations and professions" Ev-
cry lover of Cheraw will COM
mend and encourage the club for
the first Of these objects; every
Christian will commend the club
for the second.
The club is not only strictly
moral, but it may be said to be
eminently Christian. Not only
are drinking, betting an d
gambling prohibited, but one
may not even pay for the games
of another. There can be no
dancing. The play rooms shall
not be open from II p. m. Satur-
day night until 9 a. m. Monday
morning, so that the Club offers
no temptations to stay away
from church. Any one intoxica.
ted cannot be admitted into the
building.
The high character and force
of the men who are the moving
spirits of the Club is sufficient
guaranty of it's moral tone and
influence. Several of the minis
ters of Cheraw are members,
and thus not only have a whole
some influence oyer the mem
bers, but by coming in contact
with the men on this level are
themselves benefited by seeing
side Of life which ia not other
wise visible. They can preach
better sermons if they rub up
against men, and keep in touch
lGh all phases of life.
While am writing, may ask,
Why should not the Board OF
Trade and the Chiquola Club
npalgate? It strikes me that
hese twoN organizations, which
have the same objects and the
same men as members, could dc
more consolidated than separa.
ted. A united front Is better
than a divided front. One sledge
hammer will drive deeper than
two smaller hammers. It is by
a long pull, and a strong pull
and a pull altogether" that any.
thing can be accomplished.
Things will move, and things
will hum,
And croakers cease to whine,
When everybody pulls his best,
And all will pull in line."

Eating for Strength.

The greatest pleasure to be de-

gets in the knowledge that his food is
giving him greater strength and vi
tally.
Because of this fact there is a con-
slant increase in the consumption of
Quaker Scotch Oats; every time the
strength making qualities of Quaker
Scotch Oats have been tested by sci
entific investigation or by experiments
in families it has been found to be
q food without an equal.
1t builds the muscles and brain with
out taxing the digestive organs; it
costs so little anyone a afford it.

the admiral visited him at his coun-
try box, to find the old sailor pos
sessed of an apparently useless man

What do you want with him?'
asked Fisher.

yells: "Sh-h-h-, you beast!" The dog
continues to howl. The man again
comes to the window and this time
hurls a shoe at the dog. Still the
animal bowls. Another shoe follows.
The next day the mans wife goes
around in her stocking feet because
she can't find her shoes. The man
hasn't the price of another pair of
shoes for her, and the next night the
dog bowls louder than ever.
