Regarding recent attempt to
debauch some State Newspapers,
the South Branch Review
remarks ~
The Review is in need of that thou
sand dollars, and could give you so
much better paper if It had it. But we
did not consider the question for mo-
.inent. We were not even tempted.
AS we told You in taking charge of the
Review, we shall have opinions and
shall express them from time to time,
but they will not be for sale In ad-
dition we are turning down liberal adj
vertising propositions from the liquor
dealers in Harrisonburg, Staunton and
Cumberland. .-=r4=====
Has any minister of the gospel,
church member or temperance advocate
furnished US an advertisement, new
subscriber, or even spoken word in
favor of the Review, because of its
course on this question? No, indeed.
Will any minister OF the gospel. church
member or temperance advocate see
that the Review gets any advertising.
or new subscriber, or even word of
encourag ement in the future? No, in
deed. It may perhaps lose q few SUBJ
scribers among the anti-temperance
people, but that will be all. Verify,
virtue has t.. be its own reward, or it
wouldoften 60 unrewarded.
Don.t let the iron enter into
your soul brother Calhoun. The
Liquotbund has not fastened its
foul claws on your glorious South
Branch Valley yet.
If You want to know what real
Booze Boycott means, come down
to the Eastern Panhandle and
note what that evil interest tries
to do through its lackeys to those
who decline to bend the knee.
In Berkeley and Jefferson it is
afight to the knife and the knife
to the hilt, with no quarter asked
of a merciless adversary which
takes care of those in whatever
position, who wear, its collar, or
agree to ignore if not acquiesce
in its deviltries.
But when those who are most
pronounced-to the extent of be-
ing Incorporate in their tenn
perance" their denunciation
of liquor, Withhold their patronage
lest their business suffer at the
hands of those they affect TO des-
pise, one is a little tempted to
lose faith in human nature.
But despite these unAmerican
tactics, whether practised by
those controlling mercantile, pro-
fessional, official. legal or any
other kind Of business, there can
be no doubt Of the final outcome.
"A people that gave up every
thing once for a principle they
held sacred will not countenance1
such methods in the long run.

WACO COTTON PALACE
AND CARNIVAL
Preparations About Completed for Bio
Attraction Which Opens
on November 2.

Waco, Texas, Oct. 26.-Never before
thus far in advance of the opening
date have preparations for the big
Cotton Palace been perfected to such
an extent as this year, and there is
no longer any doubt that the 1912 ex-
position will be far ahead of any pre-
vious effort. When Governor Colquitt
presses the button that will start the
palace in operation at o'clock in the
evening of November 2, the Cotton
Palace will be as complete and perfect
show as it will be a week later
when in full blast. The absence of
conflicting dates, the promise of the,
railroads to Ego the limit" as regards
low rates, the bumper crops-every-
thing tends toward clinching the be-
lief that the Waco Cotton Palace will
be the meeting grounds for the whole
of Central and East Texas in the
early days of November.
