In the near future an election
will be held to determine the liquor
status of Dade county for a term
of two years, and it means whole
sale or retail liquor. Shall it be
sold by the drink or by the gallon
is tne question to be determined at
the polls by voter.# who should
weigh thouroughly the question
before them. Unqualifiedly we are
opposed to a restriction that allows
the sale of whiskey in quanties less
than one gallon. Not that we want
more whisky,God knows we don’t,
but we are tired of a law which
never can be operative; we do not
want to encourage crime by offering
inducements to the criminal. We
have tried it by the gallon end we
have tried it by the drink and we
dont want any more of this gallon
business in ours. Let every man
who has watched the results for
himsels determine which he would
prefer—a tax paying saloon rim
ing under the law. or one illegally
conducted yet bringing all the re
sults of the other,

It is a pity that Rising Fawn
could not furnish us a correspond
ent to communicate the prais
wqrthy acts of her go I , ■ >le, but
nevertheless her good deeds should
not be veiled on this, account,
When Rev. J. H, Harwell departed
for Varginia to wed his blooming
bride and afterward returning with
the expectation of furnishing out
his modest pastoral home he little
dreamed what his eyes would meet
as he steped upon the threshold of
his future home. Kind hands
prompted by generous hearts had
indeed wrought a miracle in the
eyes j!of the young divine. The
good ladies of Rising Fawn headed
by Mrs. A. T, Fricks had begun
their work ere the preacher had
departed on his mission, and a few
days energetic work completely
furnished the little parsonage in
all the equipments essential 1 to a
noat and pleasant housekeeping.
In the words of Brother Harwell
“they had omited nothing but the
the salt and peper”. In every ar
ticle of that neatly furnished home,
Mr. Harwell has something to re
mind him of the high esteem in
which he is regarded by the citi
zens of Rising Fawn, its a token of
a high appreciation of which he
might well be proud, idle words
may be meaningless and flattery a
fraud but in this goodly act. we ean
but see, attachment, high esteem
and a high appieciation of a worthy
young man. In this kind act the
rival town of Trenton sees nothing
of which to be jealous, tho’ some
day she may attempt to surpass
Rising Fawn by performing a like
deed.
