A case is to be made up by consent
to have the Supreme Court to pass
upon the constitutionality of the Evans
dispensary bill. That it seems might
be the easiest and simplest way to have
the matter settled. No one copid then
reasonably complain, for if the law is
unconstitutional we had just as well
know it at the start and be done with
it. Then the legislature could go to
work at the next session and take more
tine and give US something that would
hold. The Herald and News does not
favor the biH, but it has been passed
and we shall not favor its violation,
but shall uphold the law as all good
and law-abiaing citizens are bound to
40. But if the law is to be tested in
the courts and case can be agreed
anon. it seems to US to be the easiest
8od simplest way to settle the DIM

lThe State, 7th.l

[The State, 7th.l
The wide spread attention being
given to the liquor dispensary act
seems to increase daily though it is six
months before the law can be opera
tive.
The State has already given the crit
icisms of the press throughout the
couutry on the dispenssry scheme.
The press of the entire land does not
hesitate to denounce the law in un-
measured terms, showing the universal
temper of the public in regard to the
iniquitous legislation.
On the other hand Governor Tiliman
is receiving congratulatory letters, and
letters asking for information, without
end. Seldom, if ever, has the execu-
tive mail been so overrun with letters
on any one subject of legislation.

We agree with Or. Carlisle Of Wof-
ford College when he says that South
Carolina is in need Of men. She sorely
needs them. Men in the true sense OF
the term. Men wbo are not simply
seeking their own advancement, but
men who have the brains and the
nerve, the patriotism and the states
rnanship. to do that for this good old
State which will be for her advance
:ment and progress, and that will, at
the same time, have due regard for all
her interests.
Statesmanship has about played out
in this day. There is scarcely higher
motive now that actuates most Of our
so-called statesmen than to seek their
own preferment. Self first and all
other things afterwards seems to be the
motto Of most of the present-day states
mer. A great pity it is SO.

EXCELSIOR NOTES.

Mr.. A. NJ. Counts is confined to lis
room quite i'll.
Mr.. Ed. s. Werts, of Mountville, SC,
visited relatives in the community last
week.
We put our public road in good con-
dition on Monday, and now we are
happy and cheerful for two years to
come.
The little daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Jacob Dominick, who has been quite
i'll with pneumonia, is improving and
hopes to b! able'to attend school again
soon.
Some unknown person or persons
visited Mr.. J. S. Werts' potato bank a
few nights ago aud deprived him of a
few messes of "taters." Such boys
should serve twelve months in their
penitentiary stripes and possibly they
would learn how to cultivate a potato
patch of their own.

ton, was happily joined in the holy
bonds dsofmatrimony to Miss MaryW hit
man. of St. Luke's, on last Thursday
afternoon, by the Rev. Mr.. Dantzler,

Der in the community gathered togeth-
er and furnished the happy couple
With rousing serenade at the grooin's
residence. We wish the happy couple
a long and prosperous journey through
life.
Sabbath we had the pleasure of lis
tening to an interesting sermon
preached by the Rev. J. c. Boyd, in
the A. r. P. church at Prosperity, s. Z.
Mr.. Boyd has been pastor OF the above
named church in former years, and his
sermon was listened to by large num-
Der of his warm friends who e,de-
lighted TO meet him again and hear
him preach. Mr.. Boyd is az able
preacher, had served the "A. R.. 2.
church at Prosperity for number, of
years, and though his services have
been called to another field of labor, his
many warm friends in Prosperity will
not soon forget him. This was our
first time to hear a sermon preached
in the new A. r. P. church since it has
been erected. The church is nicely
arranged, and one among the prettiest
churches in Prosperity. SIGMA.

[
Mr.. S. A. Nettles, the prohibition
leader, was in the city yesterday. When
asked for his views on the Dispensary
law, he said that he thought the out
and-out prohibitionists were ready to
give it trial. He believes that it will
be impossible in the larger portion of
the State to get the freeholders to sign
the petitions aud that it will in reality
amount to total prohibition.
He don't think that there will be
many attempts at run6ipg blind
tigers" He thinks that the prohibi-
ton question as national and State
issue is now entirely out Of politics in
South Carolina, which is not exactly
what the prohibitionists wanted.

Comptroller {
WILL REVIVE OLD ISSUES.

1Suecial to News and Courior.
COLUMBIA, January Swatch the
banking institutions of tie State follow
the example of the National Bank of
Newberry, which reduced its surplus
S75, 900, aud in that way will have s4l2
less taxes to pay next fall. OF course
the circular of instructions Of Comp
troller General Bllerhe Will prove
especially interesting to the banks,
phosphate companies, factories, mills
and corporations of all kinds that have
accumulated surplus with which to
conduct successful business. For the
very same reasons that the corpora-
tions last year fought the raising Of
their taxes they will do so again. They
contended at that time that their assess
ment, as ordered by the Comptroller
General, was unjust because of its in
equality with other tax standards. 1t
was not so much fight on technicali-
ties as Oh what the corporations thought
were their rights.
Whether Comptroller General Ellerbe
will attempt to repeat his crusade
against the banks remains to be seen,
as nothing can be anticipated until
after the returns are made and they are
passed upon by the boards Of assessors.
Mr.. Ell.rbe will probably again Insist
upon having the banks return their
stock at their market" value, az based
upon the books, and this will naturally
precipitate another and perhaps more
vigorous fight. He is, however, per-
fectly sincere and honest in what he is
doing and will do all the more to carry
out his peculiar ideas. It can hardly,
however, be said that the Supreme
Courts decision is as favorable towards
his course as was the Legislature: 1t
:, estimated that the ''raise" OF the
COMPTROLLER General over the returns
of personal property last year amounted
to about two million dollars.
1t will readily be seen that the big
stakes are being played for, and that
there is not very much use for either
side to do any "blufing." Last year
when there was q similar contest the
banks were preparing to reduce tnelr
surplus. Some of them succeeded, and
if the policy is continued there will be
many more. The. result will be that
