Mr. Editor :-During the canvass for Sem
a,oi and member Of the last Legislature, made
the assertion that at previous session OF the
Legislature Mr. Griffin offered resolution for
the suppression of "the retailing of spiIituous
liquors. which was RalIy contradictci. Now,
for the satisfaction Of the public aud in vlndi'
cation OF myself, refer 10 the Journal OF the
Senate and House of Representatives of the
South Carolina Legislature, at its regular ses.
sion of 1889, pages l66-l69, where will be
found the following:
" The following preamble aud resolutions
submitted by alr. Griffin. were taken up:
Whereas, tiom numerous memorials, and
presentments of Grand Juries, or the subjec.
Of the License Laws, which have been pre-
sent during the presented session OF the Le'
sislature, il 10 manifest that tue public mind IS
much agita,ed, in relation TO The evils ofinte.n.
perance. and tie suppression OF dram shops
and tipping houses; And whereas, tins Legs
:lliure, although declining, from. considerations
of policy, to adopt any hasly prohlblloiy enact
ments on these subjects, yet feels that some
notice thereofis demanded by proper respect
for the great budy of the people, whose senti..
ments are embodied in the papels alluded to:
Therefore, =.
ResOired, That this Legislature regards the
retailing Of spurious liquors as an evil, which
i, is desirable should be suppressed.
Rcsol1ed, AS the sense oi this Legislature,
thai the Commissioners Of Roads, Bridges, ard
Ferries, in the respective districts and parishes
Of this State, and other bodies with like powers,
have the discretion, under the existing laws 10
grant or withhold licenses 10 retail sptrtuous
