The Governors Proclamation.

The proclamation by the Governor orue'-
ing the dispensarles to be opened Is the rlght
and proper thing 1t is just what the friends
of Temperance have been expecting that ne
would do.
or course this will be bitter pill for the IL
cense advocates, an6 the lawless element
who feel that they are above law ana can
trample it under foot when 1t does not suit
their purposes, but the better and law-aoidlng
elem ent, as a rule, will endorse the act OF the
Governor, irrespective Of political bias.
While the Governor has In his ranks some
tender feet, who fear that the move at this
time ia impoli,ic, yet the act is right, and IN
the interest of law and order, and whatever Is
right should prevail, and, We believe, will IL
nally prevail.
There Is, as we understand 1t, no organized
or combined opposition to the law, except
such as Is controlled-judging by the names
which we see printed in the newspapers-by
Italians and other foreigners who may feel
that since being relieved of despotism al
home, they should, in a free country, know
no law, except their own sweet will.
Well, now, the State Of South Carolina
must be ruled by somebody. The people, un'
der the forms of law, must govern, or else the
lawless LIQUOR element must rule.
It is for the people to say which.
When Charleston and the other towns, In
which Italians and other foreigners Kick up
such q fuss about the dispensary. placed the
country districts under strict prohibition, the
moral population obeyed the law without
murmur, but now when Charleston's liquor
traffic and debauchery Of the people, is to be
ourtailed We hear q great and mighty howl.
twill be for the people OF South Carolina to
say whether they will govern this country
under the forms Of law, or whether an aggre'
CATION Of foreigners shall head lawless mob
and defy all law.
In case, therefore, the city of Charleston
should resist the execution and enforcem ent
OF the LIQUOR law of the State, the Legislature
II its members are worthy of decent respect,
will have the city governed by a metropoli
tan force.
In saying this, we would admonish our Leg
islators and executive officers. and police
force, to use no more force than Is actually
necessary, 10 be little blind occasional lily
and other times to be little forgiving, but -
force is necessary, then use all that is neces
sary, or enough 10 let the metropolitan cit y
know that the State, and not the city, Is the
governing and ruling force.
Charleston must obey the laws OF the State,
and 1t is hoped that she may do 80 quietly
and peaceably, but pcaceably or not. the law
must be enforced, or We will have anarchy In
this country.

ERIcSSON'S TRIAL TRIP,
The Experiment at st. Louis Attended nv
Satisfactory Results.

Satisfactory Results.
The Ericsson was given a partial
trial ut st. Louis before leaving for
New York. The test was a cursory
one merely. but was sufficient to
show that the little craft possesses
great speed. Referring to it, the
Globe-Democrat SAYS:
The movement of the machinery
last night showed a slight defect in
one Of the engines and it was thought
best to remedy this before departure.
The Ericsson is very clever speci-
men of marine architecture, and be-
ing the first torpedo boat ever made
at an inland port has been a craft of
much interest to inland maritime
enthusiasts. Her movement showed
that her handling qualities were per-
feet, although she was manned by
men unfamiliar with the kind of ma
chinery used in her.
Lieut.. N. r. Usher, a government
officer with % years of naval exper-
fence, is to have charge of the little
destroyer. He assumed command at
Dubuque before she left the shops.
and has remained in this city since
her arrival. He will have charge of
the boat on the voyage to New York,
and expects to make the run from
New Orleans in five days, unless bad
weather ensues.

Capt. Thomas Dolson. an Upper
Mississippi river mariner, has charge
of the steering apparatus, and Char
ley O'Neal, an experienced Anchor
