CIVIL SERVICE REFORM.
Correspondent: "Do you feel able to
express yourself on the subject of civil
service reform 2"
Col. Aiken: II have always been op-
posed to civil service reform until the
whole civil service could become as
Democratic as it was Republican before
Mr.. Cleveland's election. My judgment
is, if Mr.. Cleveland's election could have
been assured, the last Congress would

because it relieved every member of
Congress from vast deal of unpleasant

public duties"

Correspondent: "Would you like to
say anything concerning present State
questions?"
"Col. Aiken: Il will only say now
that had hoped that the present Legis'

burying the lien law SO deep that it
could never have been resurrected. But
alas for frail humanity, the laboring
men of South Carolina will have another
year to buy provisions at so per cent.
more than they are worth, by reason of
the timidity, in my judgment, of the
existing Legislature.

The Ne,cs and Courier, in reviewing the

rs aThere was ample debate con-
rning prohibitory legislation, and the
Bult Of Il. all was to leave the law as it
with two exceptions. The Oconee

I'm Of. Walhalla can now decide by a

bme manufacture, everywhere in the

Barnwell prohibition law, and to
|tablish prohibition throughout the
bunties of Anderson and Greenville,
lied entirely. Under the State Law
b sale of spirituous liquors of every

South Carolina, except in the incor.
rated cities and towns, where the sale
such liquors may be prohibited like
