Getting Married in ,ab.

AT the close of the war" said Hon J. NJ
Seibert, our popular and efficient state audi
tor, to the Boonville (Mo) Advertiser, after
the smoke of battle had cleared away, and
wh1te-winged peace lowered over Southeast
missouri, made up my mind that l would
try and bring my matrimonial engagement to
close. After presentation of the case to
all interested, the date for our marriage was
agreed upon. Details had been arranged
when it occurred to me that one more impor-
tant matter to look after was to engage the
services of preacher. / made inquiries and
found the preachers in Cape Girardeau county
hadn taken the oath and couldn't legally
perform the ceremony. The thing grew seri-
Gus. wrote letters to preachers all over that
part OF the state, and, don't you know there
WASH one to be found who could come to my
rescue. To say l was worried doesn't eX-
press 1t. l had encountered an obstacle
where l least expected one. A number of
other young men in the county, to whom l
unfolded my tale of woe, were found suffering
under the same embarrassment. We all got
together, discussed the perplexing situation,
and, finally, learning there was preacher up
in Iowa who had taken the oath, we pooled
our issues, raised an amount sufficient to
bring him down, and we sent for him. This
was the only solution to the difficulty The
preacher came in due course of time, and il
seemed to me he married every single man
and woman in the county. My part of the ex-
penSe was So"

South Carolina Dispensary Rules.

The rules regulating the sale of liquor
in South Carolina under the dispensary
system have been published, and they ap-
pear to be In harmony with the spirit as
well as the letter of the law. That the
law will be vigorously enforced there is
every reason to believe. 1t has become a
political issue, and the faction that sup
ports it is in the ascendency. A lax en-
forcement of it would afford its opponents
an opportunity to attack it. It's friends
will take care, therefore, that no such
opportunity is presented.
Looking at the law from an unpre-
JUDGED standpoint it promises to be the
most practical attempt to control the
liquor traffic that has yet been made, and
if the results expected are ATTAINED there
is no doubt that it will be tried in other
states.
Among the rules for the control of the
have immense effect in reducing the
amount of drinking. One requires the
dispensaries to be closed at O'Clock p.
m, and the other prohibits selling LIQUOR
to any person more than once a day.
Liquor, of course, can be bought before
the closing hour and drank afterward,
and man who has made one purchase
can make another the same day through
a friend or confederate But the rules in
question throw such distractions in the
way of drinking that the tendency will be
strongly toward temperance.
Loafing around barrooms and treating
and being treated win be customs of the
past and with the breaking up of those
customs much of the pleasure and inclina-
ton to drink will be gone The old topper.
respectable or otherwise; the parson who
steps in to see his friend, the grocer. and
takes a little stimulant for his stomach's
sake; the Judge, or the lawyer, or the
editor or the merchant who rests his
elbows upon the bar and discusses a case
in court, the tariff or the silver cues
ton, and the mechanic or the
clerk who takes his whisky or
beer before beginning the duties of the
day win all be on level in the matter of
drink. They will have to buy their
whisky and beer at the dispensaries in
accordance with the rules and drink
them elsewhere than at the place of pur-
chase. The great American practice of
treating will become a thing of memory.
The South Carolina experiment will be
watched with interest. If it should be
success that state viii, in great meas
ure, have solved the temperance problem
and it will have taken an immense step
toward a greater prosperity.

Bad Advice.

! The New York World and some other
papers are advising the administration
not to enforce the anti-Chinese law at
this time, but to wait and see whether or
not congress wants it enforced. The argu-
ment is that the law is barbarous and in
! human and should not be enforced at all,
and that congress will repeal it.
Those papers that are so outspolIen
| against the law do not seem to remember
that they said little or nothing against
the bill before it was passed. They ap-
pear TO have awakened all at once to the
fact that the law is a bad one, and they
want to place the responsibility for not
enforcing it upon the administration.
The way to bring about the repeal of a
bad law is to enforce it. If it be fact
that the sentiment of the country is
against the law the way to make that
fact apparent is TO carry the law into
effect. 1t is true that there is very little
money at the disposal of the Secretary Of
the Treasury for deporting Chinese, but
there is enough to test public sentiment
with respect to the act.
If the administration does nothing it
will fail to do it's duty and there will be an
opportunity for the republicans to say
that it had not the courage to enforce the
laws. Congress may be in doubt as to
what the sentiment of the country is and
might think that, as a matter of fact, the
people are in favor of enforcing the law.
If it takes that view it will make an APP
preparation for carrying the law into
effect
On the other hand if the administration
does its plain duty it will use what money
it has in enforcing the law. 1t is not
enough to send many Chinese to China,
but it is sufficient to test the sentiment
Of the country in regard to the law
We are inclined to think that the law
is bad One-not that part of it shutting
out Chinese-but that part which re-
quires that certain Chinese shall be sent
back to their native land unless they take
out certificates of registration,-but the
administration has nothing to do with
the question whether the law is good
one or not.
The administration waited until the
supreme court had passed upon the con
stitutiOnality of the law, and it is be-
lieved it hoped the law would be pro-
nounced unconstitutional The law has
been declared constitutional and the only
thing it can do now is to enforce it.

Sir John Lubbock, M. P, in a recent address
described some amusing incidents of the
House OF Commons, says the Manchester
Times. A member from the other side of the
Tweed, abiding to the vote of G2000,000 in
support of the Afghan war, described it as "a
flea bite in the ocean" Another, while advo-
eating an increase in the European troops
employed in India, remarked:
You may depend upon it, sir the pale face
OF the British soldier is the backbone Of the
Indian army"

In 1879 young Irishman got up very late to
speak on particular subject. He fSir john
was sitting about six feet from him, and to
his surprise, was unable to hear word he
said. He presevered CALAMITY with profuse
gest1culatlon, and he was on his legs about a
quarter of an hour, during the whole of which
time no one heard single word. He believed
that the gentleman in question was very
nervous, was simply speaking to himself and
thought he was talking aloud.
