SOUTH CAROLINA'S LIQUOR
 SPECULATION.

Governor Tillman Is having 8 stormy time with the enforcement of the new liq- uor law in South Carolina, under which liquor is required to be sold under sys- tenn of state dispensaries.
 Liquor is purchased at wholesale for the central or "state" dispensary, and af- ter the purity is determined, is distributed to the country agencies, where it may be obtained by the thirsty, under regulations which are designed to restrict the sale to actual needs. But in practice South Car olina's restrictive law works poorly. The illicit trade is increasing steadily. The constabulary is powelless, especially in the country sections, where it is reported use of liquor has sprung up far in excess of it's use under the old condition of l things. In counties which were prac4 | tically "dry'' heretofore because public sentiment had grown up against the drink 1 ing of liquor, it's use has now become common. The younger element, in par ticular, are inclined to exert themselves l to get liquor not so much because they
 want it, as to defeat the operation of law which operates harshly. Against such feeling as this in the community, prose- cutions are a waste of time and money. It is reported that in fifty-eight prosecutions brought in the state, only one conviction has been secured, and that not per cent of the violations have even been prose- cuted. If this latter estimate is true, it is evident that South Carolina's law lacks the incentive to prosecutions which is af- forded by the law in this state. Prose- cutting agents here bring cases freely, for the law assures them handsome fees, whether they win or lose.
 The Charleston papers are rapping Gov ernor Tillman rather sharply over the knuckles for letting down the bars of @ law for which he is mainly responsible. MT. Chatfield Ca Connecticut man, we be- lieve), who keeps hotel for invalids, the famous health resort in the pines region, complained that he could not obtain for his guests the particular brands of liquor they demanded. Governor Tillman took l redSOnaDl6 VleW Ol bulS COulplblul duu gave MT. Chatfield authority to import his liquors direct from New York, pro. vided he would report his purchases and sales to the county dispensary.
 A Charleston hotel man demands like privileges, and the Charleston papers are scoring Governor Tillman for the special concession to the Aiken hotel. They reason that if invalids are to have
 what they want, then there is no reason for depriving South Carolinians who are fortunate enough to be healthy of the
 brands which they prefer.
 1 As a financial measure, the new law Is
 working fairly well. The reports for the
 first quarter show a profit of $40,0O0 to
 the state on it's liquor trade, and if this
 continues, $120,000 per annum will be
 very acceptable item of revenue.-Hdrt-
 ford Times.

A BOYS LETTER.

My Dear Ma: I wright to tell you l am very retched and my chilblains is worse again. 1 have not made any prog ress and do not think I shall. I am very sorry to be such an expence, but I do not think this schule is any good. One of the hat for target, he has now borrowed my watch to make a water wheel with the works, but it wont act. Me and him have tried to put the works back, but we think some wheels are missing as they wont fit. I hope Matilda's cold is better. am glad she is not at schule. I think i have got consumption. the boys at this place are not gentlemanly, but of course you. did not know this when you sent me here, will try not to get bad habits. The trowsers have worn out at the knees. I think the tailor must have cheated you. the buttons have come off, and they are loose behind. don't think the food is good, but I should not mind if I was stronger. The piece of meat I sent you is off the beef we had on Sunday, but or othpr days it is more stringy. There arc black beadles in the kitchen and some times they cook them in the dinner, ,whicf can't be wholesome when you are not strong.
 Dear Ma, hope you and Pa are we'll and do not mind my being so upcomfort able because do not think shall las | long, Please send me some more money | as Sd. if you cannot spare it 1 think 1 can borrow it of boy who is going tt leave at the half quarter and then he won, ask for it back again, but perhaps you wd not like to be under an obligation to his parents as they are tradespeople. Ithinl you deal at their shop. 1 did not mentiot it or dare say they wd. have put it dowI in the bill. Yr. loving but retched son
