Last week we had something to
say about this poll tax business, and
NO propose to say some moro, es-
pccially when we hear that there
arc pcoplo silly enough to believe
that tho poll tax can be increased
to So Just because Governor Till.
man said it ought to be. What
fools wo lnortals are Say, reader,
tho man who tells you that the
.Y,Ss,,an who votes for Tillman, votes
to aS;S pa;yS. 9 tax Of SO, tells you bare
face story, a2a he knows nc, il wheRa whleea he U
tells you 50. The poll tax cannot
DO increased cent more than it is,
without the votes Of the people.
Til)man nor any other man can
change the lew. Tho people must
say yes or no. Let no man fill your
head with such stuff. If you are a
friend to Tillman and Reform, cast
your ballot for tho full delegation
and listen to no foolish, silly talk
about the poll tax. The country be-
longs to the people and not to the

admits OF no controversy, MS the
proofs arc unfortunately too famil-
lar 60 the obscryttion aud expert
lonce q every man, woman and

I That The traffic Is pro ucing
/ thcsa diratnl results at ttE time,
al oycr South Carolina, is attested
undeniably by the largely increas-
ed criminal business Of our courts.
the filing Of our jails with crimi-
nails, penitentiary with convicts,
and our asylum with lunatics, the
degradation and ruin Of many Of
our brightest young men, and the
general condition of unrest and
decentralization which is every,
where apparent. In a word, it is
the agency most potential in its
ln1lnehce in opposing the intellect
ual, social, material, financial, ed
ucatlonal and moral interests of
our people, and opposes an almost
insurmountable barrier to the sal
vation of human souls. This con
dition Of things is neither natural
nor desirable, aud exists in spite
Of the denunciations of Gods i'm
mutable Word against it, and the
efforts Of the good and true to re-
form it.
All efforts to regulate or rcstrain
the traffic, or mitigate its evils by
law, have proven abortivc, because
under the dcmoralizing Influences,
inherent in the traffic, the liquor
seller utterly disregards or violates
every provision which is intended
to restrain, and the authorities fol
