A Sensible SaIOOnist.
The State the Bigger Rascal in
the License Partnership.

Discussing the late indictments for
selling to minors, drunkards, &c,
he wanted to know who m he could
sell to if he couldn't sell to those
who wanted liquor. He said he
paid his license to sell to people
that wanted whisky, and not to
people that didn't want it; and
seemed to think it very great
hardship that he should be confn-
ed in his sales to selling to temper
ance men and preachers. There
was some considerable force in his
reflections, but he seems to forget
that when he took out his license he
took it out subject to all the draw
backs, and as he went into the
liquor-selling business purely to
make money, he need not expect
any sympathy or indulgence, if he
gets into trouble WellSburg Herald.
There, now, is a sensible saloon
ist. But when we say sensible, we
by no means say he has in his
makeup either conscience, homes
ty, or any of the better instincts of
humanity. A man may be aems5-
bic without possessing any of the
virtues that 60 to make up a
worthy citizen, and as the Herald
intimates, if he is mean enough to
go into corrupt bargain with the
State, in which he is to divide the
fruits of his robberies, he must not
complain if the State proves the
shrewder rascal, and after getting
its share binders him somewhat in
getting his share.
While the saloonist, as the Grim
inal partner with the State, has no
right to complain, yet his charge
against his pal is true, and his way
of putting the case is convincipgly
logical, and makes the State the
meaner criminal of the two.
The State not only agrees to the
scheme to murder and rob for a
share OF the spoils, but in demand
ing its share of the spoils in ad-
vance, and then proposing to pun
ish its partner, the saloonist, for do
ing the robberies, it becomes a
bLackmailer, which is the meanest
of all robbers, and even puts beyond
its test the old adage, that "There
Is honor among thieves."
Then we repeat it, there is sersi-
bic saloonist. He is sensible in
putting the horrible license system
in its true light. 1t is nothing less
than criminal conspiracy to prey
upon society and divide the spoils,
with the deliberate understanding
in advance that each of the conspir-
ators shall cheat and swindle the
other in every possible way. The
State, for 5000, $500 or $500, licenses
the saloonist to sell liquid frenzy
and then forbids him selling TO
anybody that wants it, and de-
mands an additional share of the
spoils if he does, and here the game
of rogue catch rogue" and rascal
catch rascal, begins, and SO the mi
quitous, Ubiquitous, legal shutting
goes on, ad irafmitim,, in Council
and Court, wherever the infamous
traffic is licensed!
Who is the honest man or wo-
man who will not shout aloud and
swell the rising cry,

readily seen at distance, adding in
very small letters the words business

pose of such signs is to mislead and
deceive the public, particularly set

formed and who often enter these Of

tinued. and you will report all snch

More snocks in the South.

CHARLESTON, S. c., Nov. 5.-There was
the severest shock yet felt at Sumner at 1925
o'clock to-day and severe and continued
shock. at Greenwood, S. c., at 1888 O'Clock
to-day, perhaps the second severest yet felt.
A Il the schools here were in session at the
time Of to-day's shock. One pupil in a
colored school was crushed in the panic Of
pupils and several pupils in the Shaw
school (colored) were injured by falling
plastering. No one was seriously hurt.
Special dispatches received tonight from
WATERFORD, Greenwood, Chesterfield, Lau-
rens, Abbeville an dother points in the State
indicate that the shock to-day at those places
was more severe than in Charleston. At
WATERFORD it was so severe as to make the
peo lie rush into the street and to cause the
circuit court to adjourn without ceremony.
Tonight all is quiet in Charleston and con-
iidence is restored.
COLUMBIA, S. c., Nov. "a severe earth
quake shock was felt in this city at 1928 this
afternoon. 1t was accompanied by the usual
loud detonations. The vibrations continued
40 seconds. Buildings were violently shaken
and people rushed out into the streets. This
shock was probably severer than any ex-
perienced here since August 31st No dam
age has been reported.

COL. MORRISON.
What lie Has to Say of His Defeat

WATERLOO, ILL.,, Nov. 5.-Col. William II.
Morrison, last night, in response to inquiries
as to the causes of his defeat said: Jar
rett, the tin-plate emissary Of Pennsylvania
and other protectionists protesting to repre-
sent the Knights of Labor aud other labor
interests, were in the district ten or more
days just before election, hiring and bribing
such as could be hired and bribed, and con-
tinued to so consolidate in Bakers interest
most, Of the labor element. In proof Of
which hiring and bribery we have Jarretts
letters. While this was going on, Baker
was declaring for pure ballot Mr.. Hew-
tits interview as telegraphed to the St.L0uis
Post-Dispatch, falsely representing me as
standing in the way of tariff reductions, IA
cilitateda Jarrett's mission Of bribery in
the interest Of pretectionists, but it Is all
right if ''the blood of martyrs Is still the
seed O. the church"
To questions whether the result was a sur
prise, Col. Morrison said: Il recognized
that Influences were at work as / went
through the district. | received good deal
of information as to what was going on. but
what surprised me was the solidity with
which the element that defeated me was
handled at this time. Heretofore | have
had my share Of the labor vote of the dis
trict This time it was handled as have in
dicated.
Col Morrison does not entertain the idea
that the cause of tariff reform has received
a setback by reason Of his defeat or the de-
feat of Hurd or Carlisles close call. To the
question, if the results would bear that in
depreciation, he replied: "Oh no, not at ALL
Our cause is growing right along. We have
lost no strength"
To the inquiry whether any sentiment an
tagonistic to the administration had any
bearing ON the result, Col. Morrison said
"No, | think not. These are hard times.
There is some feeling that the change of ad-
ministration has not been followed by that
effect on business, and by such revival Of
times as was anticipated. This feeling, what
there was Of it, produced some apathy
among the Democrats, perhaps, but did
not discover any anti-administration senti-
ment based upon any specific objection to
the course of the President.
