Gov. Tillman's dispensary law is
causing exactly the trouble predicted
for it by this paper. Unusual and most
unpopular methods of enforcement
were necessary if any attempt was to
be made to enforce it, and following
these comes the use of the military
Ostensibly the militia has been or will
be called out for the purpose of en-
forcing the law, but everybody knows
that no law can continue to exist in any
state of the union that requires military
force for its execution The militia is
for emergencies, not for the perform
ance of regular police duty. 1t is to
suppress violence and to protect prop
erty. The Governors pet law ma Y
contain the true theory of liquor legis-
lation, but, clearly. time will be re-
quired to educate the people up to
that fact. He will find that Winches-
tiers and revolvers, as means of educa
ton, are out of harmony with the pop
ular thought in times of peace. He
will, if he persists in this course, bring
disgrace upon his state and disaster
upon himself, and will postpone indie
finitely any reformation that might
otherwise have been possible in the
matter of liquor drinking in South
Carolina. This is a good time for him
to pause, and consider the propriety of
some law upon the subject that can be
enfOrced.-IndeG-AppeGI.

Prudery seems to flourish in the
chaste atmosphere of the United States
Senate The medal for prize winners
at the Worlds Fair has made a very
different impression on select body of
sculptors and connoisseurs who in
spected the design on Tuesday night
to discover what all the fuss might be
about. Where the Senate committee
has discovered immodesty the Govern
ors of the National Sculpture Society
found nothing that would suggest evil
except to the hopelessly depraved, who
are sure to extract evil out of anything.
They passed resolutions, TO be submit
ted to the next meeting of the society,
"that the objections made by the
Senate committee to the nude figure
on the medal designed by Augustus
st. Gaudens for the Worlds Column
bian Exposition are unwarranted, and
that said figure, as presented in the
medal, is in every way unobJectlon-
able" The hardened moralists of the
Senate do not realize that the indeli
cacy which they criticise lies in them
for suggesting that there is immodesty
in beautiful young figure, which
would never have suggested it without
their coarse insinuation. Perhaps they
are mcToly lbHOIdHU. OIudpo CHOy
cannot grasp the fact that draped
figure can be made impure as easily as
a nude, and that the nude may be
made impure or pure. Such fine dis
tinctions are not meant for Senatorial
brains. What they do realize is that a
certain number of old maids of both
sexes may cast it up against them
hereafter if they do not put themselves
on record as stern DIRECTORS to the
nude wherever found. But the pres
ent Senate has shown a rooted aver
sion to bare facts and the naked
truth.-N. Y Times.

FRUIT CULTURE.-The reason why
comparatively few farmers succeed in
Embarrassing is because this business
demands more constant and continued
care in little details than stock, dairy
or grain growing, says an agricultural
journal. 1t is easy enough to set out
one thousand trees or ten thousand
small fruit bushes or vines, but it is
quite another thing to cultivate and
care for them as they need, from one
to five years before any return can be
expected. Few men have the needed
perseverance and steadiness of pur-
pose, even if they have the money, to
carry them through so long period of
fruitless labor, which must be done to
insure success. For this reason, per-
haps, more succeed with strawberries
than with vineyards or orchards. The
strawberry brings crop the year after
planting, and the period of uuproduc-
tive labor is shorter. Still, for those
who have the pluck and grit to stick
to it faithfully, fruit growing offers
and will probably continue to offer, a
good margin of profit.

WHAT COULD HE DO FIN and out of
Congress Secretary Carlisle has been
assailed with great bitterness for re-
sorting to the expedient of issuing
bonds under the act of 1875. What
else could he do? Congress would not
come to his relief and the credit of the
government had to be maintained.
Imagine how the Secretary would have
been assailed if he had permitted gov
eminent obligations to be dishonored.
The Secretary adopted the only course
open to him for immediate relief. His
conduct was heroic, and the emergency
demanded heroic action. This bond
issue has demonstrated two things.
First, the credit of our government is
above question, and, second, the people
are prompt to come to the relief of the
government. Patriotism is not vet
dead in these United States.-Lynch-
burg AdUGnce.

They are mighty sick lot of people
and from present indications they will
shortly follow in the path of all other
parties that have sprung up and run
as IA sort of a side issue to either of the
national parties. Mr.. G. H. Pierson
has been chairman and Mr.. r. H. Harris
secretary since the organization of the
populist party in this State. Both of
these gentlemen are politicians, and if
the way don't look awfully dark and
dreary it is thought they would hardly
have resigned their positions The I'M
preston prevails that the death knelI
has been sounded and it will not lie
long before the baby's funeral will take

missionaries preaching populistism in

THE EFFECT OF TOBACCO ON Ma
TIONS.-A writer in one of the quarter
lies in summing up the effects of tobac-
co upon the moral and intellectual
character of nations, says:
1t is said to make the Frenchman
more gay and the Spaniard more grave
1t has confirmed the German in his
speculative PHILOSOPHERS and has made
fatalism the firm belief of the Moslem
The Turks, who, before the discovery
of tobacco, were the terror of Christen-
dom, have since sunk into the ''sick
man" of the nations: The Hollanders,
whose ancestors swept the seas, with
the brooms of their commerce, now
contentedly smoke their pipes and live
| upon the remembrance of their former
| greatness.
Its effect upon the American nation
may be seen in the increased activity
of the mental powers at the expense of
| the physical frame. The mind be
comes more brilliant, but less deep; our
activity greater, but our endurance
| less.
