PROHIBITION.
A State Convention Of prohibi-
tionists was held in Columbia on.
sFhorsday, the 26th of May. IS

Eight ty-nine delegates were pres,
I emf repres nting tWent three h
coanties. s.
Twas decided after q lengthy
discussion that no nominations
for State officers should be made,
but that there should be a prohi-
bition campaign. A platform Of
principles was adopted and an
address issued to the people Of the
State.
The method proposed by the
convention by which the senti-
ment of the people on this question
may be ascertained is to place at
every polling precinct, on the day
ofthe primary election. a ballot
box into which every voter can
deposit his ballot for or against
prohibition. 1t is proposed to
catechise all candidates for the
Legislature SO that their views may
be known in advance Of the pri-
maries, thus giving the voter the
inalienable right of ''going" for
him in either sense of that word
he may elect.
There is vast deal of literature
upon this prohibition question.
Tones have been written, statis-
tics have been piled up mountain
high, and yet the solution of the
problem, GLOW to make people
quit drinking liquor" is as far off
as ever. The aspirations of prohi-
bitionists, those who are prohibi-
tionists per Sc and not for some
ulterior object or purpose, is GER
tain1y a high and holy one. Yet
Notwithstanding the experiments
with prohibition in divers States,
towns and cities of these United
States the thing itself has never
had a lfair. test on its merits any,
where. Wherever it has been 8
success it was not success by
reason of its merits, and wherever
it has failed it's failure cannot be
attributed to its demerits. Upon
all great moral questions-and
prohibition is a great moral ques-
tion-the two great paaties of this
country invariably divide, the
Democrats taking one side. and the
Republicans the other, with COM
psratiyely few exceptions. The
moral part of the question is elm
mated and prohibition is used
simply as means to an end, to
get into power, or to keep in pow
or. South Carolina will be no
exception to this rule. If the
Democratic followers of Tillman
should espouse prohibition the
irrecocilable Haskellites and the
ineomprehensible sheppardites
will as surely become anti prohi-
bitionists without reference to the
moral part of the thing itself.
Such being the case, should pro-
hibition carry in this State and
become the law, those who are
now opposed to prohibition and to
Tillman would do all they could
to make prohibition q failure, and
assthe anti ilimanites and anti
.prohibitionists CONTROL the towns

OF the Republican First Voters Club, held
on Thursday evening, September !, the
matter contained in your letter to the club
was fully discussed After giving the sub
iect careful thought, however, it was de-
ciicd that the proposed debate would be
neilhe satisfactory nor expedient, for the
following reasons:
First. The club doubts seriously that the
outcome Of such debate would succeed in
altering the convictions each side already
entertained regarding the questions at
issue, but on the contrary would merely
prove the ability OF the respective partci.

favor unnecessary loss of time which the
proposed discussion would cause. Very
truly yours, JAMES ]. SPRINGER,
