THE STATE FOR PROHIBITION. Written for The Courier: The question of prohibition is not a new one to me, my father gave it a battle as Ion? as he Jived. He gave it a fight in any place he found it, in town, country and state. This was 25 years ago when whiskey was a very popular commodity in our oune. very lew cnurctt membcis and preachers would attack the question. A great many officers of tne cnurch tampered with "booze and it was good cause to ask removal of the preacher who opposed a "dram." The man who stood square on his feet against whiskey was a back number. The dry man took a back seat and very often showed the 'white feather. There was very 'little room in courthiuse, opera nouse or church for prohibition -speecnes. ine Governor was sup posed to take punch made of the pure stuff, cut things have chaug ed, changed with the preachers, lay. aien, lawyers, doctors, democrats, republic is, governor and judges And they are moving things. The state is a net work of a great army, all under one flag and the 26th day or nay will nnu the old JNortn "State dry. Over two hnndred men in Rich anond county today are on their farms at work, that would be half drunk and doing nothing, but for prohibition. It can be said also, that over fifty thousand dollars is now invested in Richmond county ii farms, and cultivation of farms, that would have ben invested in I the liquor traffic. Over one hun dred homes in this county are hap pier than they have been in ten years. This is part of the results in one email county. Hoffman, the ""home of corn liquor" three years -ago had a school three months in the year with 18 pupils, and had Church once a month, and only three houses were painted. We had five whiskey distilleries and four bar rooms, that handled over a thousand dollars each two days. This town has been dry two years. We have .ft county high school of To pupils, three teachers, church three times a '-month Nearly every house in painted aDd many new ones. A tWO thousand dollar new depot, : 3ix store and everybody at work. This is part of the resufts in a small town. Who wants whiskey back here? Not even the whiskey men. Who wants tO See poor men COmitlg 'twenty miles with an Old OX Or mule to' get 3 gallons of mean bug juice. .-, . v 1 1 W ho wishes to see men spend su QOIIarS a WeeK lor mean UOOZe, Wimiat la.-t found something that. only six pieces of furniture in their only tUie that have this Jisea house.

I say who wants it? Now where does the fun come in to men who drink? I have drank some in my life, I regret to say, and drank 'fine whiskey. Ask me where the fan came in, and see my chin drop; and see me turn a very pale brae behind the ears. Can I tell -you? I can say it was funny that night because I do not remember, and the "nest day" well I should not call the next day, for have any of you ever been sick? I say "sick" cot ill. Is there any possibility that it will ever slip your memory? Do you one time believe you can ever forget it? No, you won't forget it. There is no law too hard on Txroze. There is no justice in "booze' no law, no conscience, no aoul, lo heart, no mercy. Don't let us now fear that we will hurt "licker." Nor let the South think that it "will hurt the Republican party to rid her of "liquor. Don't let any body believe that we Democrats are going to take ad. vaitage of them bv prohibition. All we want is to annihilate the whole "biz" in our State. C. O. Peppeb. ''Every man to his trade" is an ol I adage and is familiar to nearly all of us. It is brief in its wording but conveys a grett de.il in its meaning. It is merely a terse way of saying that a man who makes a specialty of any one thing knows more alxmt, and is more proficient in his particular specialty thsn any one else could Tbe. It is for this reason that we all seek a specialist when we havs any serious physical ailment. It is for the same reason that The Rydale Remedy Co., went to one of the best specialists in the U. S. on liver and intestinal troubles, a professor in a Columbus, O. Medical College and secured from hitn a prescription from which Ky dale s Liver I ablets are made This specialist knew more about liver troubles than a doctor who treats all diseases and that is why Rvdale's Liver Tablets Ueve and cure more quickly all liver troubles than the ordinary liver puis and powders, SO tablets in a metal box, 25 cents.
