It Is Now Pelng Agitated In Wilkes County. Washington, Oa., Aug. I.—Tilt- dis pensary movement was started in this county a month or two ago by a number of men who had been ac- 1 tive In the cause of prohibition and tv-mperance. This agitation cf the li quor question brought up the matter of stralghtout prohibition which | proved lo be more in favor with n." pscple than the moet sanguine prohi bitionists had imagined. Tier latter phrse rs the question has continued to grow until It is conceded by all who have taken the trouble to look inlo the ; matter, tHat Wilkes county will vote In favor of prohibition at the coming (lection, by a very larg.? majority. In fact (here Is comparatively little op position. The Gazette Thought that the dispensary would come nearest the so lution of the liquor question, but over and above our vi ws cn the subject we cheerfully yield to the will of the peo ple freely and fairly expressed at the ballot box. We r ally think that a vote on, the dispensary would have carried the county In Its favor; but there was to be no expression of the <vill of the people by ballot on this question, and they determined that there should lie a change from the pres ent conditions and as the time ap proaches for the election all Indica tions are that the county will vole out liquor.

Latest Sporting Notes. By winning the Brighton cup yester day afternoon at Brighton Beach, it is practically ended that there will be a match race in the course of the weelt bet ween'Hamburg and Ornament. The tup race was no rue: ai all; sim -1 ply a walkover which meant |5,000 for Marks Daly, and $16.50 additional for the Montana turfman, Ogden, sec ond. Hamburg won by one-sixteentb of a j mile. The match race will probably be a mile and a quarter, possibly a mile and a half, for $5,000 a side, besides the purse to be hung up by Ibe associa tion. The weights In August would he 119 pounds for the four year old and 109 pounds for Hamburg. This would mean a coniest worth going miles to see and In all probability the Brighton Beach turnstiles will record more spectators than ever passed through them before. Marcus Daly, since the victory of his colt yesterday, is now eager to make the maicb, ami Messrs. Patterson and Norton have stated that they have sufficient faith In their horse to put him against Hie Copper King's wonder. Turf patrons anil admirers of the thoroughbred will have their find st hopes satisfied probably one da.- tilts week. The race will lie witnessed try thous ands. thousands of dollars will be wa gered on tlie result, and other countless thousands wil) eagerly await the writ ten description of the match in the newspapers. A delightful Ice cream festival will lie given In the grove on North Augu-ta I Friday night for the benefit of the 'the benefit of the North Augusta Sun day school.
