Magazines and Liquor Adver
tisements.

mot long ago a canvass was
made Of sixty popular magazines to
find out where they stood on the
temperance question. Forty of the
sixty said space could not be bought
at any price, for liquor advertise
ments. We should suspend business
FIRST was the purpose expressed in
one form or another by all the edi-
tors of these magazines"
The above clipping from a Texas
exchange is a very strong testimo-
nial to the sentiment against the
liquor business. This sentiment is
growing all the time and in a few
years more it will be strong enough
60 wipe out the foulest blot that
now rests upon the civilization of
this great country.
At least one newspaper, while
protesting not to see that the liquor
sraffic is immoral, felt the pressure
so strong that it cut out all liquor
advertisements at a cost of hun
dreds of dollars per annum. This is
proof of the strength of sentiment
IN South Carolina ag ainst the liquor
interests. What temperance people
need to do is to assert themselves
mora strongly, and make demands
that their wishes be regarded

FROM THE PEOPLE.
STOCK-RAISlNG IN THE SANDY LAND.

STOCK RAISING IN THE SANDY LAND.
Editor of the Beacon:
| see so much about home-raised stock
in the different parts of the state, will
show you that we have some stock
c untry, too, in this section of our coun-
ty. Thos. McHenry, of Paulette, re-
Gently sold to Little & Nixon. of Liv'
ington, Ala. forty-two head of home
raised mules, mares and colts, and they
are as good as you can buy in Tennessee,
Ed Robbins also sold six home-raised
mules to the same parties. Prices
were very satisfactory and the county
is still full of mule and horse colts.
Now how is that for the red necks?'
McHenry recently sold 100 head of cat
tie TO j. B. Elkin, of Macon, and Rob-
bins sold a bunch of cattle to Cunning
ham, of Brooksville.
The boil weevil will not hurt US tc
any great extent as long as we car
raise stock. Still people will buy Wes-
tern and Tennessee mules. Shannon
says if YOU tell a mar in this count,
THAT you have a home-raised mule t
sell, he will not buy him, but if you viii
bring him from the depot with a lot, he
will sell easily as a Tennessee mule. II
takes lots of different kind of people to
make a world.
The farmers do not seem to be taking
advantage of this beautiful weather to
get their cotton out, that they may &c
to work to combat the boil weevil.
Our crop is turning out very well not
withstanding the boil weevill. We will
get half a bale to the acre. We are
preparing the land as fast as we can for
another crop, for we must work fast,
work early and late and everlastingly
to fight the boil weevil, for they ars as
bad as the Mexican rebels death and
destruction wherever they go. The ne
groes are not yet convinced.
