CAROLINA'S BIG SALOON.
LAWYERs ADVISE BARKEEPERs
TO OBEY THE EEW Law.

a Test Case Can be Made Only After
1t Goes Into Bfsct-The Opinion Filed
by Four Of TIE Most Prominent Legal
Firms in the State Employed for the
Purpose by the Liquor Dealers.
CHARLESTON, :. c., April 5.-There will
be no liquor or teer sold in South Carolina
except by the state after July ]. 1898. Four
Of the most eminent legal firms in the state
to-day decided the matter. Soon after the
passage Of the law at the last session Of the
legislature the liquor dealers Of the state
formed an association and employed coun-
SCI to test its constitutioDslity. These
counse! to-day fled their opinion,
which was submitted co the executive
committee of the liquor dealers tonight.
The counsel advise the liquor dealers that
they prepare TO meet the law as valid and
constitutional on and after July l. That in
view Of the heavy penalties prescribed by
the act they cannot advise them to continue
selling liquor after July l, but, on the con-
trary, advise them to comply withlthe statute
until it has been sdjudged invalid. To
test the constitunonslity Of the statute
on the point Of federal prohibition
that proper proceedings be taken to test
that question, but that pending such pro-
ceediDgs and the determination thereof the
provisions Of the state Law be carefully OBJ
served. The counsel say that the statute
can only be tested after July l by the at
tempt Of She state or any of its officers to
seize and sell liquors manufactured 10
another state and exposed for sale here by
some one who has obtained and holds a
license to sell liquors for the whole year
The news was a great surprise and It's effects
in a business point Of view will be
serious, as it will retire q large
number of persons from business.
In the meantime the cover Of the state.
together with the state dispenser, is travel
ing in the west and the north making ar
rangements 20 start the state bArrCom on
July ]. Under the new law the state will
sell all the liquor aud beer sold in South
Carolina. Gov. Tillman expects to buy the
liquorB either in Chicago, st. Louis or New
York. The act apprOpriates only $50 900
with which to start business, but the gov
ernor thinks the state can easily get ell the
credit IL wants.

CENTRAL AND ITS MEN.
PATTERSON SETS FORTH THE
RIGHTS OF THE ENGINEERS.

A Claim That It Is Unjust to Compel
Them to Haul Cars From q Road on
Which There Is q Strike-Tbe En-
gineers Always Willing to Abide by
the Laws.
MACON, GA, April 5.-The case Of the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers
against Receiver Conner Of the Central was
concluded to-day with the argument Of
Attorney Patterson, who was unusually
forcible. he began his discussion Of the
testimony at 10 o'clock and spoke for more
than two hours. Mr.. Patterson maintained
that the clause concerning whether or not
the engineers should be compelled TO handle
freight from a road upon which there was
strike should not be inserted In any contract
that might be drawn up. Its wrong he
stated, "it's illegal and unconstitutional A
man has q right to resign his position when
be wishes to.
"Yes," interrupted the court, "but the
trouble is that when one resigns all do"
"It al depends" stated the attorney,
"upon the manner 10 which they quit, that

to cripple trade or interfere with interstate

Mr.. Patterson then went on TO say that

giueers want a contract that Will be bind-
ing with the receiver. At the same time
they say they won't haul cars from another
road on which there is a strike. That's q
condition. it is not u theory"
ut Is just this way" Mr.. Patterson went
on, Iii the ruling Of these judges becomes q |
law We are bound by It, and there is no
need to allude to that clause in the con-
tracts, but there is no occasion TO require
of men u proviso against any po5si-
BILE thing thai may arise. These engineers !
are citizens Ot this republic anu have as
much Of a heritage In 1t as Depew, a !
Wadley or a Conner, aud regard the laws Of !
the United States as paramount t0 all the |
laws Of any order Mr.. Patterson attacked !

that the brotherhood was conspiracy and |
unconstitutional. Here, he said, SIS an

ney paid what he called "a tribute of facts
to the engineers. Two hundred and fifty
million people, be stated, had intrusted their
lives during the past year to these men at
the throttle, and yet Just one two thousandth
Of per cent. had lost their lives "Aud

been given in the newspapers, They haven't

eminent affairs
The two CAGES which attracted the i'm.
POrtant body TO Macon we're those of the
Cordee machine shops VS.. the Sam read and
others, aud Of Hill Bros VS.. the Georgia
Southern end Florida road and others
They both, as is known. allege discrimins-
ton by these various lines in rates.
1t means the disposition of the
long and short haul clause,
in which the carrying of freight for short
distances is said to be charged great deal
more proportionately than for long dis
tances. The case taken up this morning
was that Of the Sam road. Testimony was
submitted until l O'clock. when an adjourn
nlent was taken until this afternoon. The
commission will take the evidence under
consideration and render its decision later.

pieces of the assembly. The lecture was an
earnest argument Ia favor OF better COM
mon school system and the concentration
or the agricultural element of the popula-
ton in farm villages. 1t is the dearth of
intellectual advantages which the doctor
said is driving the youth of the country to
the cities. He said that Georgia,
with its S465, 600, 900 of taxable
property, could we'll afford an
annual appropriation OF 100000 for its
public schools. He said that ignorance and
vice were two great dangers that were most
to be dreaded and that they could only be
guarded against by more schools better
teachers getting better pay, and better
school houses aud facilities. He said that
there was no use In trying to get around
the education Of the negro. for if we did not
do 50 somebody else would. He illustrated
bis point with the story Of the Irishmau,
who, while trying to freeze his beast Of a
dog got frozen himself. The lecture
aboundsd In logic, wit and pathos, and
made deep impression on the large audi
ence who heard IT.

tauqua and teachers institute.
Hon. Gazaway Hnrtridge reached the
city last night, but left for his home this
morning. His failure to reach here on time
was due to the stupidity of hotel porte-

pressed over his failure to fill his part on
