HAPPY RESULTS.
Have Made Many Sumter Residents
Enthusiastic.

No wonder scores of Sumter citizens
grow enthusiastic. 1t is enough to
make anyone happy to find relief after
years of suffering. Public statements
like the following are but truthful rep.
resentations of the daily work done
In Sumter by Doan's Kidney Pills.
William Burdell, 211 Church St.,
Sumter, S. c., says: II suffered from
backache and sharp, shooting pains
through my loins for some time. ]

too frequent passages Of the kidney

from backache, and my kidneys have

CANDIDATES. AT DALZELL.
Office Seekers Make Their Speeches
to A New Crowd.

The campaign meeting at Dalzell
on Tuesday last was probably the
best attended of the series of meet
tings held for the purpose of bringing
the candidates for the Senate, House,
and county offices and the voters face
TO face. There was a large assem-
blage from all the country tributary
to Dalzell. Stateburg, Rafting Creek
and also a large delegation from the
city Of Sumter went up to spend a
pleasant day mingling with their
friends and enjoying the oratory Of
the office-seekers.
The speeches of the candidates
covered practically the same subjects
and the same ground as at the pre-
vious meetings. The same jokes were
told and for those who have been fol-
lowing the campaign there was moth
Ing of particular interest in the meet
ing. but for those who heard the
candidates for the first time the oc-
O" was apparently lull VI inter-
est and all the speakers were given
an attentive hearing. Senator Clifton
introduced new matter into his speech
that was listened to with marked in
terest. He explained his position
and votes on the mileage book bill
and on the Custody of minor children
bill. His explanation covered sub
stantially the same ground as did his
card published few days ago, the
only difference being that he went
somewhat more into detail.
While Mr.. c. f. Stubs was on the
stand, he was asked to define his po-
sition on the liquor question, all the
other candidates for the legislature
having done so. He said he was a
prohibitionist, and had always been
one. but that he would not commit
himself as to how he would vote II
sent back to the legislature, as he
would be governed by conditions.
that the liquor question was some
what settled now and he would not
try to disturb conditions unneces-
sarily.
Mr.. Lever was not present, having
previous engagement to speak at
North, Orangeburg county. DR.. Ray
merely announced his candidacy. He
said he did not think it fair for him
to make a speech when his opponent
was absent.
Following the speaking dinner wa
served to the crowd by the ladies OF
the Dalzell Methodist church. They
had provided abundant and elegant
dinner and the patronage was ali
that they could have desired, for the
ladies were kept busy serving the
hungry crowd for more than an
hour.

PROHIBITION OR NOTHING.
Mr.. ID. James Winn Does Not Ap-
prove OF Local Option Views of the
Candidates.

Mr.. Editor: l regret exceedingly
to see in your issue of Aug. 10 that
the men Who are asking to represent
the voters in Sumter county are all,
called local option.
This in the face cf the fact that a
majority of the voters in the county
have already voted for prohibition.
This in plain words is asking the
prohibition voters TO endorse the
present state of affairs where the So
called local option counties are flood
ing the State with whiskey. They have
certainly made local option a fraud
on its face. Why should they have
so much regard for the rights Of the
whiskey men and their friends, in
fiVe counties, to home rule? What
about the rights Of the thirty-eight
prohibition counties? Are they to
have no protection against this vile
traffic. Where is the right of the
majority to rule?
When some Of the representatives
from this county voted against pro-
hibition in the legislature and I ask
ed them how they could vote in favor
OF whiskey selling, they said they had
been elected on a local option plat
form and could not violate their
pledge. Now, therefore, 1 warn ev-
cry prohibitionist who votes for
them. after reading their statements,
that they will have 1t flung in their
teeth that they had endorsed this in
famous local option state of affairs.
l for one will never vote for any man
who Is willing to vote for the sale of
liquor in South Carolina.
1 believe just God will hold every
man responsible for the results that
come from whiskey, who in any
manner consents to, aids or abets its
sale. and he who votes for men who
are willing to allow this state Of af-
fairs to continue. may live to See the
idol Of his heart and his mothers Joy
fill a drunkard's grave, from local
option whiskey.
What is the use Of building Young
Mems Christian Association buildings
If we are to send men to Columbia
who are wiling to ALLOW these five
counties to supply the whiskey to
send them to their eternal ruin.
I claim a right to speak plainly,
for In 1876 I left my young wife and
her babies and at the call of Wade
Hampton, went with others and stood
with them in front of the State
House. and 1t needed only one word
from Hampton an6 the United States
Troops who barred his way, would
have been swept aside, though 1t cost
us our lives, and in all the years Of the
past, I have done what I could to
help build the waste places of our
beloved State. But today I would
rather have no one represent us, than
cast vote for any man who Is will
ling to vote to allow the sale of this
