Great preparations are being made
for the opening of the States great
barroom, and the strange part of all
this business is that good people who
profess to be great advocates of temper
ance are in favor of the sale of liquor by
the State and hope thereby to lessen
the, burdens of taxation. If that is the
result then there must be many buyers
and much drinking, otherwise the
business will not be financial success.
IF it is successful financially where are
the benefits to come in in moral way
in the lessening of drunkenness and The
miseries and crimes we have heard so
much of from advocates of prohibi-
ton? Men can buy their pints and
half pints and treat and drink as
much as ever and if the object of the
law is to sell for the profit there is in it,
the State will not only be legalizing
the business by engaging in it but
will have to encourage it. We can't
understand the position of a prohi-
5itionist who favors the Dispensary.

RATHER WEAK.

It would be interesting to know
if Governor Tillman gave President
Cleveland the same reasons that he
gives the alliance for his opposition to
Mr.. Donaldson. His main reason, it
seems, for opposing Mr.. Donaldson, is
the fact that he went to Chicago and
took an active part in favor of the
nomination of Mr. Cleveland when the
South Carolina Convention had de-
nounced him, and also because MIR.
Donaldson as Senator helped to defeat
a pet railroad bill Of the Governors.
Well, we Go not see any good reasons IN
the Governors statement to warrant
him in asking the President not TO ap-
point him. If be was an original
Cleveland man he was and,is certain
ly in sympathy with Mr.. Cleveland
and that should rather be recommeo-
dation to him. His opposition to u
railroad bill that is two years dead
should certainly not disqualify him for
Federal appointment.
We are inclined to think that Mr..
Donaldson is not quite plant enough
or as easily managed as the Governor
would like. He is possibly most too
independent in thought and action.
We admit to disappointment in the
Governors statement of bis reasons.
We expected that he would furnish
better reasons if he gave any at all.
They seem to us to be rather of a per-
sonal nature. But in another column
may be found his letter.

WHO ARE DEMOCRATS

Our Bachman Chapel correspondent
admits that the statement of The Her
aid and News that a man could not
hold one set of principles and still claim
to be member Of another party, whose
platform of principles WAS entirely
different. That is the way it seems to US.
But he undertakes to excuse Messrs.
Latimer, Strait and McLaurin on the
ground that Mr.. Haskell led on indepen-
dent movement in 1890 and that Gen
eral Hampton did notvote. The Herald
and News did not endorse nor support
the Haskell movement, but that has
nothing in the world to do with the
question at issue. Because that was a
mistake does not in the least excuse
these other gentlemen. General Hamp-
ten went to the polls to vote and he
had forgotten his registration certificate
and the managers would DOT let him
vote without it.
Ifthese gentlemen endorse the prin-
ciples of the Third party then they ere
not Democrats, and We are glad that
that is the way our friend of Bachman
Chapel sees it for it is the only correct
way to look at it.

A LYNCRISG.

On Tuesday night at Denmark, III
Barnwell County, q negro by the name
OF John Peterson was riddled with
bullets. He was charged with COM
mitting an outrage on Miss Baxter, a
small school girl, the daughter OF
well to do farmer of that section. The
evidence was no. entirely conclusive
that they had the right man, but
number had been arrested and some
one had to suffer the death penalty.
Peterson protested his innocence to the
last and as he was dying. He had been
brought to Columbia, or had come OF
his own accord, and asked protection
of the Governor, but Governor Tillman
decided to let him be carried back TO
Denmark that the evidence might be
taken before Judge Lynch's court. The
evidence was taken and as a result the
man has been ushered into eternity.
IF we remember correctly Governor
Tillman wanted the Legislature to
give him power to remove sheriffs VINO
would permit prisoners in their charge
to be lynched, and now he sends a man
back to a mob for trial. We do not
see how he could have expected other
results. It is ali right if they have the
right man, but as to that there seems
to be some doubt, but even then the
Governor should have enc .avored to
have given him regular trial.

IF Mai. Hamilton has no stronger
case against the Dispensary Act than
the fact that Speaker Jones altered
the bill while it was beir passed with
out the authority of the House we
think he bad better throw up the
sponge and not waste the time Of the
courts. It is a serious charge he
makes and one we DO not believe will
be sustained by the facts in the case.
We do not believe that Mr.. Jones
would undertake anything Of the
kind even Iif he had favored the bill,
but the fact is he was opposed to the
passage of the bill and voted against it.
Somuch the more reason why he would
not undertake to aid its passage. The
Herald and New opposed the passage
of the bill and we do not now think it a
good or wise law, but we believe in
giving it test, or if it 10 be fought let
it be done without trying to injure the
good name of any one, especially with
out proof. The bill was no doubt
rushed through in too great haste and
the defects, if any, should be a lesson
against hasty legislation. We feel sat-
isfed that Mr.. Jones will be amply
able to fully vindicate himself.
On the other hand Maj. Hamilton
says the changes have been made and
the matter will have to be investigated
by the Supreme Court and that body
will have to pass upon it.

Mr.. Steven A. Ryan, the Atlanta
merchant prince, who spent good
long time in the Jail Of that city, is now
out and seems to be much of pugilist.
He also seems to keep scrap book, for
the other day, the Atlanta Constitu-
ton says, that Mr.. Ryan had call
from shoe drummer, by name Nc
Geough, and when the gentleman be-
gan to enquire if Mr.. Ryan wanted to
buy some shoes, Mr.. Ryan began
ta=aakif. this gentleman haa~net~=been
in the habit of making banquet
speeches. It seems that about a year
or two ago this drummer made speech
in Boston in response to the toast,
1.-THE. South" and most of the said
speech was taken up in abuse of Mr..
Ryan. Mr.. Ryan remembered the
speech and the man also and invited
him in the rear of the store, but the
drummer did not care to go, where
upon Mr.. Ryan proceeded to knock the
man down and kept up the amusement
for about five rounds, and then led him
to the back door and proceeded to
show him the street. He did not sell
bill of shoes. It would seem that Mr..
Ryan is good fighter any way you
take him.

THE DISPESSARy.

The Greenville News of recent issue
discusses the Dispensary bill at some
length in reply to an article in the
Mountaineer. Without bothering their
discussion in the least, we want TO
make few extracts from this article
on the Dispensary. The bill is now an
Act and law, it is true, and will he EN-
forced unless upset by the courts, but
still we do not believe it a wise law,
and it may be repealed by the next
Legislature. We do not see how any
prohiOitio0ist, who wants to do away
with liquor on moral grounds can pos
sibIy endorse such legislation, yet some
do.
The News says:
I'm our view the dispensary is an in
genious combination of all the evils
and wrongs of prohibition and the
license system. 1t invades and de-
stroys the principle of personal liberty
without any of the claim of moral right
which makes prohibition respectable.
1t recognizes and endorses the morality
of the liquor business and declares that
it is right to sell liquor to everybody
with the exception already fixed by
law for any purpose. At the same
time it says the citizens shall not have
the profit there is in the business be-
cause the State wants it. It proposes
to fix the liquor business on conmunl-
ties without giving those communities
any control of it. The cities are to do
all the policing and feeding and keep
ing Of prisoners made necessary by the
sale of liquor, while the State and
county take three-fuurths Of the profits.
1T is undemOcratic, unamerlcan.
1t is confiscation of property and ban
ishment of citizens and invasion of
local self government without the ex-
cuse of moral principle. 1t deprives
cities of revenue without pretending to
decrease their i'm morality or diminish
their expenses"
But some ease their consciences, we
presume, by the profit to the State that
is to be gained from it.
The News further says:
IF the dispensary is success in pro-
noting temperance it will be u failure
financially. If it is u success tinan-
cially it will be a failure in promoting
temperance. II it is failure in pro-
noting temperance and a success tiuan-
cialIy it will surely diminish the
chances for ever obtaining prohibition.
How, then, can prohibitionist sit
complacentiy by and watch the expert
ment tried? II the dispeussry is
better scheme for promoting temper
aDce than prohibition is, why not cou-
fess frankly that Ben Tillman and
John Gary Evans have found better
path to temperance than John B.
Cough, Father Matthew, and all of
them, and endorse and support it hon
estly and frankly? fit be good, but
not so good as straight prohibition why
not 60 the direct road to straight pro-
hibition at once without fooling around
side way with the dispensary and
taking chances?"

South Carolina has blue law also.
The Herald and News stands corrected
in the statement made last week. The
following is the law on the observance
of the Sabbath. Our attention has
been called to il by member of the
Newberry bar, and we copy the law on
the subject in full. Here it is:
"SEc. 1851. No tradesnan, artifcer,
workman, laborer, or other person
whatever, shall do or exercise any
worldly labor, business, or work of
their ordinary calliugs upon the Lords
Day, commonly called the Sc BATH
or any part thereof, (works of necessity
or charity only exeepted;) and every
person being of the age Of fifteen years
or upwards, offending iu the premises,
shall, for every such offence, forfeit the
sum Of one dollar.
"SEc. 1852. No person or persons
whatsoever shall publicly cry, show
forth, or expose to sale, any wares,
merchandise, fruits, herbs, goods, or
chattels whatsoever, upon the Lords
Day, or any part thereof, upon pain
that every person so offending shall
forfeit the same goods so cried, or
showed forth, or exposed to sale.
"SEC. 1888. No public sports or
pastimes, as bear-baiting, bull-baiJing,
football playing, horse-raeing, inter-
ludes, or common plays, or other games,
exercises, sports, or pastimes whatso-
ever, shall be used on the Lords Day
by any person or persons whatsoever;
and every person or persons offending
in any Of the premises shall forfeit for
every offence the sum of one dollar"
The foregoing has been the law Of
this State ever since 1851 and 1712.

The railroad cases have been decided

The railroad cases have been decided
and the State loses. The merits Of the
eases have not yet been reached. The
Herald and News advised long ago
that the shortest road to an end Of this
litigation was to take the cases up on
their merits and get decision from
the Supreme Court of the United States
and that would end the whole matter.
We never could see where anything
could be gained by all these side issues.
If the tax;s a legal tax the sooner that
can be determined the better; if it is
not a legal tax why the sooner we
know it the better. Such a decision
would end the whole matter. All these
side issues are costing the State money
and the taxpayers will have to pay it
and the case is no nearer ended than
it was long ago. Let's see what the
cost is: Mr.. Samuel Lord $1,000; Mr..
Ira B. Jones $1,000; Mr.. Randolph
Tucker Zone speech) $1,000; the fines of
four Sherifs $500 each) $1,000; expen-
ses Of these Sheriffs at least $500; expen-
ses of the Attorney-General at least
$500, making a total of $4,000; and
when it is all added possibly $4,000,
and no result.

The weakest thing we have ever seen
from Governor Tillman is hestatement
of his reasons for wanting President
Donaldson blacklisted by Mr.. Cleve-
land. He must have felt the weakness
of his case when he was writing that

vigorously but in this case it is weak
and has none of the ear remarks of Gov.
Tillman's strong rhetoric.
