viii Agree 10 Accept.


viii Agree TO Accept.
Briefly, the senate committee will
agree to accept the view Of the presi.
dent and the house as TO free wool
and One-cent sugar, with the free-in
thrCeyears attachment; but it viii
exercise its rights to amend other
schedules and provisions of the tariff
bill as it thinks best.
The conference with the president
Wednesday brought a working agree.
ment, under which both the executive
and the senate leaders have yielded
certain points. The senate Democrats
do not purpose making any general
increase in the rates of the tariff bill
or to make the senate liable to the
charge of having impeded the efforts
of the president and the house to-
ward tariff reform.
Many Changes Proposed.
Changes will be made in many
schedules, however, the work having
now been started with a consdera-
ton of the first schedule in the bin
Some Of the changes regarded as
necessary by the senate leaders may
be carried over 10 the house. and put
into the bill in the Democratic eau
Gus, stiA in progress there.
The senate leaders reserve the
right to make changes after the bill
reaches the senate, when they con
slider them necessary to make the tar
iff revision more equitable and scien-
tific.
The decision to stand with the
president upon the wool and sugar
tariff issue has brought the various
forces of Democratic control into
practical unity, it is claimed.
In Case Of Refusal.
Should the president and house ma
iority refuse to accept any change in
the wool and sugar provisions, it is
understood that the senate commit
tee will lend it's support to the same
program.
The fight against free wool. how
ever, has become more acute at both
ends of the capitol. and several state
delegations in the house are appealing
to Democratic senators for support in
the fight to retain some duty.
The Democratic caucus Of the
house has reached only the third
schedule of the new bill. Represen-
tative Underwood and the other
Democratic tariff leaders are making
no apparent effort to limit debate or
hasten a party decision on the bill.
This deliberate progress has raised
the hopes of the wool and sugar in
terests that they may be able to or
ganize sufficient strength to change
the bill in the caucus, so that it will
pass the house with at least a small
duty on wool and without the proVi
sion to make sugar free in 1916.
This opinion is strengthened by the
attitude Of the senate Democrats
Many Of them who favor at least a
small wool and sugar tariff are lend
ing their influence TO the fight in the
house, in the hope that the issue cam
be fought out there and will not have
to be settled in the senate.
No Changes During Day.
Representative Underwood and his
associates of the ways and means
committee succeeded in plotting the
tariff bill through another days de-
bate in the house caucus, without any
change in its rates. Many phases Of
the tariff were gone into with demands
FOR changes in duties coming from
many quarters.

tenderness and love lighted up the sad

upon giving his fathers friend a dewy,

One impression the book conveys Is
that of the kindly and generous feeling
that existed between Confederates

made at the time Of the birth OF Gen

The Dispensary Election.
Editor County Record:

Editor County Record:
| have read the articles which
have been published in The Record
for the past few weeks concerning
the coming dispensary election.
These articles have been strengthen
ing to my faith in praying that God
would deliver US from this threaten
ed danger of having whisky selling
again legalized business in Will
liamsburg. This suggests to me that
perhaps l may be able to help some
others by telling them that |, too,
belong to that circle who pray daily
that all Christians may vote against
this wrong and THAT it may be
defeated. l do not want my boy to
grow TO manhood in community
where it is treated as respectable
business. In my Bible study this
morning | came across this passage:
WOE unto them that decree un.
righteous DEGREES" Will not this
woe apply to everyone who by his
vote legalizes this curse of whisky
selling? Yes, indeed ,and, fathers, re-
member it will apply not alone to
you but to your children. In time
to come, when you have passed on to
render to God an account of your
actions while here your children will
be left behind to reap the fruits OF
your present sowing. All | ask OF
you is that you seek guidance from
God as to whether you vote for the
dispensary or against it. There is
not a man in this county who ex-
poets to vote for it who can honest
ly say he has asked for Gods guild
ance in the matter and is sure it is
Gods will for him to vote for it.
Friends. will you not stop long
enough to consider?

,us and less to be excused than a

ulous and less to be excused than a
drunken man or woman? Yes, wom-
an! Why should she not have the
same right? The person writing the
above piece for the News and Cour-
ier seems t. try to picture the DIS
pensary so much better than the blind
tiger, just as if we were compelled
to have blind tigers. Who are re-
sponsible for the blind tigers? What
do they mean? They mean poor OF
ficers and weak men. A blind tiger
is law-breaker, and should be pun
ished. But even they are not SO
tempting or inviting to our young
men and boys as the dispensary.
Some of you may answer that the
boys are not allowed to buy whiskey
from dispensary. am sorry to
say that there are older ones whom
they may only ask to buy it for them.
Think and decide, citizens of Will
liamsburg and other counties.
When you see a person under the
influence of strong drink from a blind
tiger do you feel responsible? If you
vote in favor of the dispensary and
see a person under its influence, will
you then feel responsible? Will you?
1t may be your own loved one, who
would not have touched it, but for
the sight of it ever near.
Merchants, think of the dollars a
dispensary will take from you, many
a dollar that would otherwise go to
you will go for drink. Some men
will spend their dollar for drink if
their poor wives and children have to
suffer for the want of food and cloth
ing. Will you help to make it easy
for them to get drink? Which will
YOU decide? You who have sons and
daughters to raise, will you say put
liquor in their midst to so tempt
them? Only short while since one
sweet little wife and mother remark
ed to the writer: my husband has
not drank whikey for four years;
how hope they will not bring the
dispensary back to so tempt him. he
has been like a different man since
he quit drink" Will you help to
destroy the happiness of this and a
great many other homes? Perhaps
your own.
Decide, friends, what you will do,
and vote according in August. Will
you say, bring the dispensary and let
my children be drunkards if they
wish? You will surely regret it when
it is too late.
How much easier to abstain from
anything when it is out of our sight?
Had you thought of it?

In Re Dispensary Question.
Editor County Record

Kingstree, June 16:-Discussion
on the dispensary question is very
quiet here, although petition, sign
ed by more than the required one
third voters, has been forwarded to
the Governor with a request that ne
order an election on the question of
a dispensary or no dispensary to be
operated at Kingstree. Until recent
" the blind tiger business was so
flourishing here that a number OF
the townspeople, who voted against
the dispensary three years ago, be-
lieve now that it will be great re-
lief, and have not only signed the
petition for an election. but openly
signifed their intention of support
ing the dispensary question at the
polls when the election is held in
August.
| was very much surprised to see
i the above in the News and Courier,
some time past. Citizens of Will
liamsburg county, think seriously
before voting in favor of a dispen-
sary back in Kingstree. You have
gotten rid of it and it will surely be
sooner or later to your sorrow If you
do not help to stay rid of it. What
does it mean? 1t means that many
a Young man who would otherwise
never touch liquor, will go to drunk
ards grave. 1t means that you who
have sons are inviting and encourag-
ing them to drink. Men, let your
consciences work before and not af-
ter the election. Why did God give
YOU these precious sons and daugh-
ters? 1t is not every married couple
who are so blest.
