south Carolina and the Saloon.

Social reformers all over the coun-
try will watch with deep interest the
working of the new Liquor law in
South Carolina. 1t is an experiment
that may reyolutionize our present
temperance methods.
On and after the first day of next
July the uew Dispensary law goes
into effect, under which all the sa-
looms in South Carolina are closed
and their places taken by so called
dispensaries, managed under State
control. In other words, the State
will run its own saloons, and thus
see that they are as decently kept as
such establishments can be.
The new law is very explicit, and
Governor Tillman declares his inten-
ton of enforcing it to the letter,
though it will throw out of employ
ment about 5000 men at present
employed in the liquor traffic of the
State. Under it's provision one man,
a Commissioner of the State Dispen-
sary-will buy all the liquor to be
sold in the State. In order to in
sure his purchasing only the very
best qualities he is TO be assisted by
he State Chemist. A State Board
{ Control is to appoint county
boards of control for each county,
and the retail dispensers will be
under the direction of these local
bodies. There can be but 'one dis
penser in each county, and he must
be Endorsed by a majority of the
voters in the town in which the per-
nit is to be issued. Liqu manu-
featured in the State are to be given
the preference by the State Com
missioner, but on the other hand they
are not allowed to be sold to any one
in the State but him.
An important provision Of the law
is that which requires all beverages
to be put mp in packages of not less
than half a pint nor more than five
gallons, and forbids the dispenser to
break these packages. Before pur-
chasers can be served with the liquids
the desire they must make applica-
tion in writing, giving certain
particulars as to their identity, the
kind and quantity of liquor required,
why and for whom.
There seems to be no doubt about
the constitutionslity of the law; even
the legal advisers of the saloonkeepers
admit that. AS the profits-which
will be 100 per cent on the invest
ment-will go toward tightening the
taxes of the State, the Governor will
probably have no trouble in giving
the new system fair trial. He
believes that the plan viii finally be
adopted all over the Union. Its
success in Norway and Sweden for
the last forty years certainly argues
in its favor.
In connection with this experiment
it is interesting to note the utter
failure of prohibition in one of its
stronghol,'s-the Australian colony
of Victoria. The record of the last
forty years in that colony has been
one of steady progression from rigid
prohibition that failed utterly to
prohibit to rational licensing system
which has been attended with
steady diminution of the amount of
liquor consumed. The sentiment in
Iowa and other of our own States
where prohibitory laws exist, shows
decidedly the same trend. All re.
formers except the extremists viii,
therefore,, watch the working of the
South Carolina experiment with the
hope of finding in it a solution of
the vexed temperance problem

WASHINGTON, Dec 1.-THE Wilson
bill is in danger. Democratic men,
bers OF the house of representatives are
endeavoring to combine, with view
to making the passage of the bill i'm
possible, unless the house puts certain
amendments to it that will restore
special industries which they or their
constituents are particularly interested
in, all of which are afforded protection
by the Mckinley law.
Within few days representatives,
including Louisiana members, some
from Alabama, North Carolina, South
Caroliua, Pennsylvania, New Jersey,
Connecticut, comforting together to see
whether the combination bad sufficient
strength to be formed. They have
not agreed upon any definite line of
action. The plan many have been talk
ing over, contemplates drawing up a
schedule including various articles
upon which they want increased pro-
lection, pledging each man combina-
tion vote for amendments necessary to
have the entire list in the Incorporated
bill.
To carry this plan into. operation all
members of the combination would De

would all vote for taxes from iron

The promoter of the scheme is work
ing very quietly, and is averse to any
publication being made of his move
ments. Sperry (Ct) Sunday evening
said nothing definite had been done,
and did not know what might be done.
He said there was a great deal of dissat-
isfaction with the bill among the dem-
ocrats. If all could be combined there
might be sufficient changes to make the
measure more satisfactory in those Sec
tions of country that suffered most
heavily.

The Condition of Affairs In Hawaii-Pres-
idcnt Dole Doesn't Need Anybody's Aid.
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 1.-THE latest
from Hawaii is brought by the schooner
Transit on November 90. The Rr''"+'-,
published letter from Minister Willis
in which he said he wished his remarks
in the Star to apply to the entire press
of Honolulu
The steps taken by Minister Willis in
his interview with the Star, which was
revised in proof by him before publica-
ton, caused considerable anxiety in
government circles, owing to the inti-
nation that any breach of the peace
would be punishable by the American
minister. To reporter his words
were: ANY trouble precipitated on
the other side would be stopped at once
by the United States forces"
On the morning of the 17th, the day
after the Alameda left, President Dole
called upon Minister Willis to learn
how far the authority of the United
States was expected to be carried in
case of an emergency. Upon his re-
turn it was learned that the provisional
government was fully satisfied with
the explanation and limitations made
by Minister Willis.
1t is the general opinion that the
original language used by the United
States minister conveyed more than he
intended it should. 1t is understood
that President Dole very clearly in
formed the minister that the provision
al government commanded the situa
tion, and would require no aid from
the United States unless it was
called for. The president assured
the minister that any breach ot
peace which might occur would be
speedily dealt with by the Hawaiian
government. The provisional govern
ment received assurances on the points
mentioned which were perfectly salts
factory. 1t is understood that Minister
Willis said he would stand back of the
present government until the present
difficulty was settled.

The Washington Civil Service Association
Goes to Pieces.

WASHINGTON, Dec II. = The Civil
Service association, an organizat ton OF
about one hundred clerks in the treas
ury department, has gone out of exist
ence. The purposes of the association
were to extend the civil service in every
way consistent with laws and also to
cultivate among the clerks spirit of
pride in their work. A number
of meetings were held until shortly
after Secretary Carlisle came into of
fee. While the officials of the new ad-
ministration evinced no active
opposition to the scheme, it
is said that they made it plain
that their wishes were that no
such association should exist About
the only thing of Importance done by
the association was to forward to the
president petition asking him to
make it compulsory for chiefs of divi-
sions to take the civil service examina-
tions the same as clerks. The presi-
dent, it is said, took no notice of the
petition.
