that the office requires men Of intelligence

of the Office is ut the pleasure Of the Goy-
eraor under the present law, and there are
snany, he says, still performing the func
tions Of the Office who have lost their com
missions. Complaints have been made, he
says, of untitness aud NAL administration.
He then declares That every commission

the Legislature TO make u limit Of five ye1rs
TO the appointments.
One object in the proclamation il 10 get
rid of number of negroes who arc ho ding

Day We have not room this week for
Judge Wallace's decision on the constitu-
tionality Of the dispensary law. We con-
slider 1t the ab!est and most conclusive pre-
sentation Of that law we have yet read, and
50 fully accords with the opinion we have
all along held on that subject that we shall
publish 1t next week.
1t is not the law itself that is so objection.
able TO the generality of our citizens, but
the men and means employed to enforce its
details. 1t is natural for every man tc
loathe spy or sneak. twas imbedded in
all of us at school, aud we can't rub it out
Who does not remember the utter contempt
that was felt for a boy or girl that acted as
spy and tell-tale upon his or her school
mates.
From the schooiboy up to the highest Of
fcer in the army there is deeply rooted dis
gust for any one who will resort to surrepti
tious and unmanly means to find cause fol
anolher's punishment. That seems to be
the conduct Of the dispensary constables
and hence it is but natural that they are moi
respected and meet with opposition.

By Heretofore we have been copgratu.


Bay" Heretofore we have been coppratu-
lating oursclf upon the sobriety Of our town
and the absence of "blin tigers" but we
can do 20 no longer. There must be num-
Der of tigers prowlng about town, for we
hear their growing every night and see the
unsteady tread Of their victims in day time.
Where their lnirs arc cnly the initiated
know, and they stare i'll unsophistcated
astonishmcnt and chilllkc innocence when
asked if they know "whcre to get growl."
Our town authorities claim that the dis
pensary law takes the power to arrest and
punish parties for selling whskey without
license completely out of their hands. They
have no right to search any room or other
premises to find whether the drunk comes
from dispcnsary or contraband whiskey.
That duty belongs to the dispensary officers.
All that the town authorities can do is to
arrest and punish those who disturb the
peace of the community when under the
influence of either dispensary or blind
tiger whiskey. The result is, many drunks
and n number of "biiEi tigers" Are the
authorities correct in the position they as
sume;
We have heard Of one dodge to deceive
the dispcnsary detectives, and we don't see
clearly ho'T j. can &c caugh; Up with Il is
simply this: a man collects any number
Of dispensary whiskcy TASKS and bottles.
lie may buy them flied at the dispcnsary.
There's no law against havirg these TASKS 8
i'll your possession, AMI il will take the
keencst detective eye tn prevent the dis
penscr himself or anyone else from filing
them rs often as they wish with contraband
liquor. We have no dispcnsary in Union,
but we have heard Of n man having o dis
pcnsary flask filled five times in one day,
right in this town.
Coy. Tillman finds the law very defective,
with lots of holes for officers and people to
creep through, and he promises when the
legislature meets to have it made like the
farmers lawful fence horse high, bul
strong and pig tight.
II is astonishing how many goods you can
buy from GRAHAM x SPARKS for n ,}pIlor

Gay In conversation with some of the
leading merchants of this town, We found all
agreeing that their cash sales are better
than nt the same season for son. years back,
while collections Of past due debts are much
worse. Money is still very scarce, Ms all
taken over the counters has to be forwarded
to meet stipulated obligations Of the mer-
chants, and but little is left to circulate
among the people, consequently those of us
who haze no daily sales but weekly pay-
mcnts TO make have II hard time to meet cur
rent cxnenses.
