Gains Momentum Day by Day.

The great Southern Baptist conven-
tion which assembled in Nashville last
week declared itself in favor of Ma
tional prohibition, and will employ a
field agen. to cooperate with the forces
already at work to that end. The pro-
hibition cause may receive backset
here and there IN local committees, as
has been the case in few counties in
South Carolina, but the great nation
wide movement is stronger than it has
ever been and lis gaining momentum
day by day. That which affords most
encouragement from a prohibition
standpoint is the fear and anxiety that
exists among the distillers themselves.
They realize that their business is on a
sandy foundation and that with an en-
lightened public sentiment aroused
against them their business is liable to
be swept from them almost any day
through national legislation.

Every Citizen Should Vote.

The records show that 1876 registra-
tion certificates have been issued for
the approaching municipal election.
Next Tuesday every holder of a regis
tration certificate should vote without
bias or prejudice for the men who in
his judgment will serve the town the
best. Every voter must cast two bal
lots-one for mayor and the other
for warden. These are to serve for
two years. Calmly consider the mat
ter and vote as your conscience di-
rects.
There is considerable interest in the
election but no feeling. And we do
not believe that the people of Edge
field will allow themselves to become
unduly wrought up over the election.
Voc quietly for those who in your
judgment will serve the town the best,
and then concede the same right to
every other citizen If that be done,
the election will pass off without rip
pie of unpleasantness

The Farmers Senator.

Other members of the United States
Senate are able men and splendid
speakers. But Ellison D. Smith, Of
South Carolina, is the only Southern
farmer in that body. His knowledge
of the cotton crop and the methods of
manipulating brokers to detraud the
cotton farmers of tair price for their
product exceeds that of any member
of the Senate. He has displayed q
knowledge which has simply astonish-
ed his fellow Senators; and he has
been able to sustain his charges by
producing records.
Senator Smith has earned high
place in the estimation of mis- fellow
Senators. They regard him as states
man, according to the statement of
Senator Kern, peculiarly fitted to rep
resent the agricultural South. South
Carolina also has learned to honor and
trust him. -Abbeville Medium. :

A Day Current Needed.

For the size of the plant and for the
amount of capital invested, there ID
probably not another town in the State
that is better lighted than Edgefeld.
What is needed now is day current.
Surely with the large amount of local
capital that is practically idle in the
banks, sufficient number of small in
dustrial enterprises could be establish
ed in Edgefeld to make possible the
supplying of day current.
Numerous and great variety Of de-
mands for the power would open up as
soon as the day current became per-
mency. Druggists would drive their
fans, dentists their drilling and grind
ing apparatus, printing Offices their
folders and presses, ginneries their
gins, lumber mills their saws and
planes, repair shops their sundry ma
chimes, the town its pumping station,
grocery stores would install coffee
mills and meat markets motor-driven
sausage mills and meat cutters, sta
bles their shearing and clipping ma
chimes, and bald-headed men would
install fans in their stores, Offices and
homes.
Lets put our heads and shoulders and
purses together to the end that Edge
field be supplied with CONTINUOUS
electric current.
