The federal reserve act, the resolu-
tion to be adopted by banks which
wish to enter the system and the
blank drawn by the organization COM
mittee for use OF applicants for mem
bership will be mailed tomorrow to
every national bank in the United

There are $500 national banks in

soon as the national bank list has
been completed. TheIe is no time

Summing Up.

The article published few days ago
showed the widespread disregard Of
the rules we have. This one gives
two of the vast number Of occurrences
that show the rules we have to be
vitality defective. There can be no
doubt that the party regulations have
fallen into disrepute in large meas
ure because they are so defective.
The legislature has passed laws to
assist in enforcing the rules. But it
has been like driving nails in rotten
planks, they won't hold. Rip off ev-
erything to the good timbers and
build with sound statutes.

ri'se Will he No Country Club.

The proposed movement to establish
Country Club" in the vicinity Of
NJ aiming has aroused public sentiment
iu opposition 90 strong that we doubt
Nery much IL the projectors will at
tc'npt TO carry out their purpose. 1t Is
Known that the law forbids the estab-
hmert OF an institution which per-
lnlts the storing of into .;icants where
persons congregate to drink, such
places are declared q nuisance, and
subject to severe penalties. not only
se. but whore the public sentiment as
Manifested. is SO much opposed. 1t
vould be foolhardy for any man or
l'et OF rnen TO attempt to defy 1t.
The projectors OF this club applied
90 the Secretary OF State for a charter
tu establish a club for social, literary.
nd charitable purposes. with the
rrivilege OF having amusements, and
other features. but this does not allow
features which the law forbids. and
NV. all clubs. whether under the lock-
ors or otherwise are illegal. and will
not De permitted by the people Of
this community.
There are many who favor the le-
al sale OF intoxicants who are as
much opposed to the club scheme as
ore the most ardent prohibitionists.

nt the establishment OF = laiyieas

worse than an open harraom ov n

demned that the young. out OF re-
Sard for public sentiment. will re-
main away. but with a club which Is
visited by the prominent. gives to the
young a certain amount OF imaginary
prestige which they will crave to get
within Its portals. and disaster results
Last Sunday the subject was taken
up and HANDLED from the several pull
pits. Sunday night the service at the
Baptist church was converted into
general mass meeting. and participat-
ed In By members OF the several
churches as well as non-mcmbers.
Charlton DuRant. ESD. was the prin-
cipai speaker. He discussed the Ii
duor question thoroughly. and his re-
marks met with the approval OF the
entire congregation. Eev. j. A. An
siey. Capt. ID. J. Bradham. Mr.. A. S.
Briggs. Mr.. r. c. Thomas. and others
also discussed the matter forcibly.
and made II clear that the contemplate
ed country club was not desired, and
would not be tolerated.
A. the conclusion OF tho meeting
the following resolution was adopted
unanimously:
Be IL resolved. by the members of
the several Christian churches. and
citizens OF Manning. assembled in
Manning Baptist church. that we put
ourselves on record as being opposed
to the establishment of the Claren-
don Country Club. or any other place
for the sale or distribution OF alcoholic
liquor. and pledge ourselves TO sup
port all lawful efforts to prevent the
