The published list OF 1876 names

Advertiser is a most entertaining ad.

nifty. or, think, very many people
will find It so on careful perusal and
study. Just what Is expected OF this
committee Will be interesting to fina
out. IL is announced that It will
hold a meeting next week and select
an executive committee, whereupon
what will be left for the general
committee to do?
Does II not appear to be a case OF
gathering together an exhibition OF
some prominent men, some more or
less prominent men, and some men
not prominent at all, for the express
purpose of making an impression, a
sort of threatening array against the
multitudinous antf-prohibitionists? Is
this listing of the aforesaid 1876 a
sort of grandstand play? In plain
language. with all due respect to
number of most estimable gentlemen
whose names are on the list, is 1t
not a great. big BLUM on the part or
the prohibitionists? Is 1t to be con-
sidered for moment that the entire
1876 are going to vote for prohibition?
/ grant you, that perhaps the odd
thirty-five will vote for prohibition.
but believe 1t would be good
wager to bet that abount a hundred
of the number will either not vote
at all at the plebiscite or else will
vote against prohibition.

Life Imprisonment for Wealthy
Planter.

W. 7. Jones has been refused a
new trial by the State Supreme Court
which heard his appeal on Monday,
Jan. 3rd. This announcement of the
highest tribunal in the State of South
Carolina removes. the hope Of the
prisoner in his fight for liberty.
The history of the now famous
Jones Ease is, one that has excited
widespread interest, because of the
prominence and wealth of the prin-
cipals, and the very sensational fea-
lures brought out at the inquest and
at the trial, and the hard fought. con-
tinued and able efforts that have been
put forth by the defendants counsel
in the attempt to keep him from hav-
ing to receive the punishment provi-
ded by law and imposed by the pre-
siding judge after the jury hearing
the ease had rendered a verdict of
guilty of murder with recommended
tion to mercy.
1t was on Sunday night, July 9Th,
1908, that W. T. Jones, n of the
largest land owners and wealthiest
men in that section poisoned his wife,
who died in agony, repeating the
Lords prayer.
