hot heads to lead in the management OF
the unions a strike on a false issue,
or usinguulawlul or bulldozing methods,
Injuries everybody, but most OF all the
laboring men themselves. The public
remembers and resents caueeless in
jury. There Is natural sense OF JUS
tce in the public, and it finally settles
down about the right place, and dis
tnguishes pretty clearly between the
assertion OF rights and the imposition
oil wrongs. 1t sees an injustice when It
is perpetrated at the diClation OF a,mis-
guided union as easily as when it is per-
petrated by a skilled and designing cap
ilalst.
YES, George, but this is case OF
resistance to tyranny"
Now, Jack, don't be too hasty. PEG,
Pile who are in tho fight are not cool
judges, ! suppose this strike may 90
on for long time, but don't believe
the strikers will ever win, This COM
pany has q public franchise, and is a
public servant, The public want
good service, by good road, with good
equipments, and gentlemanly, accom-
modating employees. AS long MS it Is u
question merely OF getting the best men
for that service, the public has IN in
terest in common with the company,
and they will very naturally conclude
that the officers OF the company
in charge of that matter are
better able to judge as to the
comparative fitness OF the employees
than the employees are themselves. 1t
isn't natural that the company would
be discharGinS men recklessly 1t is
money in the company's treasury to
get the best, The better the service
the better tho patronage, and the better
the company will be able to pay first
class wages. Probably some Of those
strikers know very well that they have
forfeited all right to get back, Those
men will keen up the racket, OF course,
The rest had better go back while there
is room. That's the way it looks to mt,
and PIE seen good deal OF such things"

The Railroad Wreckers.

The railroads have lost their suit in resist
ing the taxes levied upon them In this STATE
This is matter of great regret. The railroads
have been assessed at figures which are op
pressive, and which must be abhorrent 10 eV-
cry man W no loves fair play and equailty IN
bearing the burdens of taxation.
The State officers assess the railroads AT ou'-
rageously high figures; the Legislature ap
pointed a commission TO control their ousi-
ness, without In any way restraining tne
strikers and laborers' unions which comoine
and consplre together to rob the railroads, un-
der the pretense and guse of demanding iair
wages, while using force to prevent other peo-
pie from taking the places which they may
not want, except at Increased prices.
1t has been said that the railroad authorl
ties have been looking to the Railroad com
missioners to give them pretext for reducing
the salaries of the employees Of the road
The recent decision of the United states
Court which allows the State to fall upon Inc
property of the companies will iurnlsh tne
pretext for which they have been looklng.
Railroads which are not earning enough 20
nav the exorbitant assessment OF the differ
ent unions in payment Of salaries Will oe
forced TO cut expenses somewhere.
The railroads then will likely make sweep
ing reductions in the pay Of their officers and
employees, in order to avoid bankruptcy.

The Dispensary Law May Bring Pro-
hibitiOu.

Itseems that the dispensary law may, after
all. bring to the country the very state OF al
fairs for which the prohibitionists have been
clamorIng-a prohibitory law.
IT. is onlte certain that the law Will curtall
the liouor business In South Carolina, even IN
those towns where dispensary may be es-
t.h,,shed and we have the most cheering In
formation from various parts Of the STATE.
The News and Courier, some days ago saio
that it was almost impossible for any one u
get the requisite number OF signatures I'D
Charleston, and Of course, failing TO get tne
signatures no dispensary could be established
in that city. We would then have practlca'
prohibition, with authority TO employ any
number of constables to seize the "blind u
gers"
We also see that Spartanburg will likely re-
fuse TO establish a dispensary.
The daily newspapers in Greenville ana
Columbia, we believe, have urged the refusai
OF citizens to sign applications for the ap'
pointments.
II the opponents of prohibition refuse 10
ask for the establishment OF dispensary, tne
probibitionists will hardly force the establish
ment OF places for the sale of liquor.
The dispensary law is actual prohioilion'
except in cases where a majority Of the land
owners desire to have whiskey sold IN 'he in'
corporation. 1t remains for the people o'
each town to exercise their choice or Wish IN
the matter.
If the opponents of prohibition will only
hold ont In refusing to sign PETITIONS we've
got prohibition, and an army OF, constables lo
enforce It.
The Abbeville press and banner. [volume] (Abbeville, S.C.) 1869-1924, 1893-01-18
RecOuSitered.

Il is a matter of congratulation that the
city council of Charleston have reconsidered
their action In granting licenses 10 the liquoi
dealers for the whole year.
They have concl uded TO conform their u.
censes TO the requirements of the dispensary
law. which necessitates the closing OF the bars
on the first of July.
We are glad that Charleston has done the
proper thing, and we hope that the people o'
that old and honored city may conclude TO
fall into line and determine TO be citizens of
the State-plain every day cltizens-who may
be willing to be governed by the same laws
that apply to the country people.
The days of the bar rooms are numbered IL
South Carolina, and 1t may be said that the
prohibitionisLs OF this State will, as body,
give their support to the administration
In enforcing the new law.
1t is believed that the new law will result In
good, but in case 1t does not, the temperance
people are strong enough to demand Other
and further legislation.

Special Spite at Abbeville.

It seems that the originator Of false reports
has a special spite at Abbeville. The report
that Abbeville would not get the railroad
shops has been industriously circulated al
all over this State, and now we see 1t stated
In some of the papers that preacher has ap
piled for the place Of county dispenser at Alb
beville. The fact is. that 1t Is not at all Ger
tain that Abbeville will have dispenser

What Will They Do?

Now that Charleston has determined to
obey the law in reference to the granting OF
licenses after the LIST OF July. would it not be
we'll for the little towns to do like Little Bo
Peeps Sheep?"
1t Is much better to yield gracefully to the
inevitable than be forced to obey the law.

will be closed by the State constables. and no
attempt to defy the law OF the State will sue

Unless majority of the landowners of the
town OF Abbeville sign petition for the sp-
pointment Of a dispenser, we have prohibi-
ton, pure and simple, with an army OF con-
stables TO attend "blind tigers" and catch
railroads which carry liquor contrary to law.
The law is one which will prohibit, and for
which every real prohibitionist will be thank
full. Don't sign the petitions for the dispen.
sary, and we will be all right Anti-prohibi-
tionlsts will refuse TO do so, and certainly no
true prohibitionist ought to sign such petit
tions. Unless We ask for the dispensary, we
will have dry town.

Photographic camera would ever sur
bass tha telescope as mears Of eX-

of the wonderful power of the little
instrument. 1t photographed comet

but which the latter instrument dis
closed when the position of the comet
had been ascertained. The camera is
