Long Creek Locals.

Jan. 12.-Special: Our school at
the academy reopened January 4th
with six new boarding pupils and
severa' new ones from the commu-
| nifty.
j. J. Moore, from Clayton, Ga, has
recently bought Il farm in our COM
munity near the academy, and has
| moved to it. We are glad to welcome
him into our midst. He is a son Of
Rev. NJ. J. Moore. OF this community.
| and, like his father, is much inter-
ested in the work OF church and Sun
day school.
Mr., and Mrs. Julius Breedlove
came down from the Whitewater sec
| tion few days ago and have bar
gained for a place near the school,
and it. is thought they will move
down at once. They are anxious to
set their children in school here
Our Sunday school is taking on
new life. We are hoping to observe
Comc-to-Sunday-School Day, Febru-
ary II. We insist on all in reach of
Long Creek church being there on
that day.
We are expecting Rev. j. T.. Nc
Nanaway, one Of the Home Board
evangclists, to assist the pastor, Rev.
Il. !. Henderson, in a meeting here
beginning on Wednesday night, the
18th Of January. We are hoping for
great meeting.
There is whooping cough in our
community. The strange thing about
it is that some old people, who had
whooping cough when children, are
suffering from severe cough which
has all the symptoms Of whooping
cough. With the exception Of bad
colds and whooping cough, the health
OF the community is good.
The people of our community are
much grieved on account OF the sad
deaths of the two efficient officers
Messrs. Davis and Foster. They
were held in high esteem by almost
every one. How true the Scripture
which says, aye know neither the
day nor the hour" "Be We therefore

Revenue Officer A. Y. Reid and Ru-
raj Policeman w. l.. Littleton got
somewhat busy last week when they
made tour Of inspection over the
upper section Of the county.
On Wednesday last, about noon,
they cut down about 1000 gallons of
beer, mash, ETC., this raid taking
place in the Jocassee section. The
furnace was cold and the still had
been pulled out and taken away.
Eight fermenters, flake stand, a num-
Der of barrels and other articles Of
this class we're destroyed.
On Thursday run-out still was
destroyed near the Frank Robertson
place on Keowee ricer. This aban-
doned plant was located on the Pick
ems side of the river.
About a mile and a half from the
Burnt lanyard another run-out still
was located. and at this place eight
fermenters and fake stand were de-
stroyed.
No one was anywhere around any
of the plants and no arrests were
male, but the officers have pretty
good idea about certain things that
give them a clue or two to work on
in the future.

HER TERRIBLE LOSS.

The kaiser's man, Chancellor Hert-
ling, wants this kind of peace:
Not self.denial peace, not peace
of conquest but peace which con-
tains the guarantee OF permanence
and of a competition between the Eu-
ropean nations in the service of kul-
tur and humanity, on the basis OF mu'
tual respect and mutual confidence"
That. any part of Germany autoc:'
racy, can, even think such peace pos
sible shows that Germany does not
yet understand the war and its IT.
remediable effects.
Mutual respect and confidence are
not matters over which nations can
sit down and make bargains. The
human brains do not exist which can
restore Germany's loss in respect and
confidence of the nations, for respect
and confidence can neither be forced
nor secured by bargain. Germany is
in IL class with the VIGOROUSLY bad
hotel, bad woman, bad dog, bad actor,
and all the sacrifice she might be
willing to make at the peace table
cannot lift her out of it. Alas! at
the height of her power, culture, prog
ress and influence for good, Germany
has branded herself with the barbar-
ism, treachery, ferocity and vileness
of the Hun, and Hun she will remain
long after peace dawns upon civil
lzation that she has brutally ravished
and betrayed.
Peace may give Germany much. "
will not be able to give her the re,
spect and confidence Of other peoples

PRESIDENT OF EQUITY

Governor Lynn J. Frazier has re
membered Casey"
A certificate CT the appointment OF
Patrick M. Casey OF Cass county TO be
a member of the state board OF con-
troll was filed with Assistant Secre'
tary OF State Wilder late Monday
evening by Governor Frazier Casey
succeeds f. S. Lewis, former cnair'
man of the board, whose resignation
took effect December !. The new
members term OF Office dates from
December l.
Patrick NJ. Casey was the only
league candidate for state office who
fell by the wayside in the Townley
landslide one year ago. John Steen
bumped Patrick by some several hun
dred votes. Pat ran on the demo-
cratic ticket, and, though the league
printed up lot of literature showing
voters just how to scratch Steea III
the republican column ana jump over
into the democratic division and vote
for Casey, not a sufficient number OF
leaguers remembered Casey"
The governor, however, has not for
gotten Casey. Casey announced In
Fargo yesterday that he would be the
new member of the board, and the
governor apparently reached the same
conclusion at about the same time.
Although the commission was filed in
the secretary, of states office last
evening, the board of control had not
been taken into the governors con.
fidence up to noon today, and it's
members knew only what Fargo news
papers reports gave them. -p

with the city commission protests
against storm sewer assessments Nos
l and 2, complaining that the special
assessment commission has not equit-
ably prorated the costs according to
benefits derived, but has, they con-
tend, adopted flat-rate basis, charg.
ing every lot the same amount.
The protests were received and re-
ferred to the city attorney, and the
special assessments were approved by
the city commission. The same course
was adopted by the commission with
regard to protests from E. G. Patter-
son and Anna Slattery against the spe-
cial assessment on paving district No.
1. The protestants, who were repre-.
sented by Attorney Allen, alleged that

has not been equitably assessed.
Attorney Allen, representing Bis
marck motion picture men, persuaded
the city commission to amend an
ordinance adopted last June assess
ing picture theaters an annual license
fee of $3.50 and to reduce this tax
to SIS per year. Mr.. Allen stated
that what with war taxes, high cost of
films and other expenses, movie men
now have a deuce of time to make
bare living.
Over the objection of Commissioner
Bertsch, who objected to the city's
fencing public highway which he
claims has been in use for more than

SIGN OF THE TIMES:

Another evidence that Bismarck is
growing is found in the necessity for
increased office facilities which the
Northern Express Co. has met by es-
taDlishing city office in the North
west hotel building. All OF the COM
pany's business will be transacted from
this point. The partition dividing off
business quarters for the express
company in the Northern Pacific sta
ton building have been removed, CIV
ing the company ample capacity for
the storage of ten loaded trucks where

provement, which he believes will
make Tor much greater efficiency.

DOOM OF THE DOUGHNUT.

And among the youths of great
land there shall be waling and gnash-
ing Of teeth, and strong men standing
in the eating places shall mourn loud
" and shall call down maledictiOns
upon the curse of conservation they
shall reyile even their handmade
their cooks and their waiting ladies
and condemn them for denying the
food of the hasty. And those that
are given to the drinking of coffee
shall turn away unsatisfied, for what
is the drink of the gods, yea, even
the amber liquid if it be not accom-
panied by the doughnut delectable, by
the nut that has nourished the hurried
Of he nations!
For To-, it is written that the dough-
nut shall vanish from among us. On
the scrolls of the cooks it is written,
and on the tablets OF the food con-
servers. And though the voice Of
the people shall be lifted in anguish
and the heavens be rent with the
shouts Of the professors, yet shall the
law be fulfilled and that which was
beloved among viands shall be abol-
ished utterly.
And behold punishment is visited
upon the doughnut for its transgres-
sions, for it's temptations of the peo-
pie unto the sin Of gluttony. For it is
made of fine wheaton flour OF great
price and mixed with sweetness and
with the fruit of fowls, also Of great
price, and handmaidens prepare it for
the table, broiling it in fats, yea, the
priceless fat Of swine, SO that it is
puffed up with richness and of favor
exceeding fine. And men do look up
on it pleasantly, rejoicing in it's excess
of fairness and devOuring it with glad
ness.
So hath it fallen into i'll repute
among the elders, and taking council
with the handmaidens Of the tribe
they have conspired against it that
it shall cease. And the handmaidens
rejoice, saying, "Verily, this which
hath nourished among us, consuming
the stores of our nation, called among
men the 'sinker,' shall pass and be
destroyed forever lest it be 'sinker'
indeed and founder the ship of state"
