DIR. w. y.

DR.. w. j. Alexander, who died
in Darlington last week while
widely known in the State was
perhaps best known to q few hun
dreds of the younger generation OF
South Carolinians who met him
from day to day in the class room.
They will remember him as char
acterlzed for a noble purity of life
which silently but profoundly i'm
pressed itself on his associates and
for a high moral heroism which
did not shrink from graphing with
problems whose serious and vital
consequences to himself none
other could so justly estimate.
No one who knew him will deny
the intellectual valor which he un-
obtrusively illustrated in following
the unexplored paths were an alb
solutely unselish reason led him.
Personally the writer feels a sin
cere sorrow that DR.. Alexander
should have died and believes that
in his departure the world has lost
a brilliant and original thinker and
a man who was earnestly and
simply good.

FiIching Liberty.

If the officials make no sincere
effort to prohibit Illicit liquor sell
ing and recognize that the State
having embarked In the business
for Doodle must meet all compe-
tition open or concealed, then the
dispensary scheme may meet with
some success In the way of making
money. That is to say that the
State will fail to monopolize the
sale of good whiskey at fancy
prices and that its endeavor to leg
islate cheap drinks out Of the mar
ket will not materialize. The OBJ
stacle is that the law lacks the re-
spect of at least q third of the peo-
pie Of the State and no sort of Greg
ulation" is worth a counterfeit cop.
per that is not upheld by some
thing approaching enlightened if
not unanimous public sentiment.
There r democrats in South Car
DINA and they are intelligent men
thousands in number whose sense
and feelings resent the notion that
the government, governor or any
body else shall dictate to them
from whom they shall purchase
any article whatever. From just
such the dispensary may expect a
contempt which will not be of the
silent kind.
The ~dispensary law deliberately
flches from every freeman q por-
ton Of his private rights and un-
dertakes to declare and emphasize
the power Of the State to a%ppropri-
ate the liberty of the citizen at will.
1t doesn't matter who knows that
the ADVERTISER is opposed to any
kind Of p%rohibitory or interfering
legislation with the whiskey traffic
and that it ear only justify high or
low license on the ground that in
toxicants are not necessaries and
are consequently proper objects Of
taxation for purposes of revenue
only.
If the underlying principles of
the dispensary + rational the ar
guments against socialism, nation
alism and "Bellamyism" are trivial
and the success Of the scheme as a
department of the government will
demonstrate the practical superior
ity of paternalism over democratic
ideas. If the dispensary meets
with the success that it's friends pre-
tend to hope for we believe that
it will mark the beginning of the
overthrow of local self govern
nent by centralized rule.
We do not and will not incite the
disregard of any law unless there
is urgent and immediate reason
and in this case there is not. But
we cannot but denounce the whole
scheme as an insult and an inva-
sion OF the privileges incident
to Carolinian manhood and which
it is the inherited duty of CAROLYN
ians to maintain.

The ADVERTISER would perhaps

candidacy but at the same time we
should be delighted to see him the

The ADVERTISER does not object
to seeing Donaldson, Tillman, Irby,

Is a distinct gain to the real reform

Gov. Tillman has lorded it until
he can afford to eat a little humble
pie. The rules made by the Board
of Control, of which His Excellency
is chief, is a humiliating concession
to the railroads in the State. They
are asked to play the part of the
spy and report all intoXicants
shipped to private citizens over
their lines, that the same may be
seized and confiscated. 1t is hardly
probable that the Railroad author
ties will be purchased on such de-
grading terms. 1t is humiliating
to an ordinary citizen to witness
the low estate into which the
chief of even such q small concern
as South Carolina has fallen. We
had thought the mission Of what
A. b. w. calls the Refawmers, was
to raise the state from the slough
of rottenness into which her rulers
for two hundred years had de-
graded her. See manifesto of 1890.
