TO OPEN CAMPAIGN
 FOR STATE WIDE

Next Tuesday night at the Metho- dist church the campaign for "State- wide Prohibition" will be opened in this county, at which time Rev. Frank Barrett will deliver his lecture on this subject. Having been with Mir. Bar rett several weeks on this work and hearing him night after night, we feel that we should here urge everyone in this town and county who possibly can do so to hear him. MT. Barrett is not only one of the ablest speakers in the state on this question, but he is one of the greatest orators, best posted and most fluent takers on this question, in the south.
 If you are ever so much opposed to, or so much in favor of statewide pro- hibition that you think it useless for you to hear lecture on this subject, we urge for your own sake to hear him at this time. V. c. CRAIG,
 s. E. ANDERSON.

KING EDWARD VII.
 OF ENGLAND DEAD

London, May 7.--Edward VII, king of the United Kingdom and of all the British domains beyond the seas, Great Britain and Ireland and emperor of India, died at 11:45 o'clock last night after an illness of less than one week. ~.--
 Pneumonia, following bronchitis, is believed to have been the cause of the monarchs death. Some of the kings friends are convinced that worry over the critical situation which confronted the kingdom aggravated, if it did not cause, the fatal illness.
 Queen Alexandria, the prince of Wales, who succeeds to the throne, the duchess of Wales, the princess royal, the duchess of Fife, Princess Victoria and Princess Louise and the duchess of Argyle were present at the bed side when the king died.
 The prince of Wales succeeded to the crown immediately, according to the laws of the kingdom, without elf cial ceremony. His figrst act was to dispatch to the lord mayor the an nouncement of his fathers death. in pursuance of custom. The new king will bear the name of George V.
