CAMPAIGN DAY.

Friday of this weeks the day for the
State campaign meeting at Newberry.
The meeting will be held in the grove
on Maj. Jones' place in the incorporate
limits of the town. The candidates will
tarry with US for only short time.
They will arriyelate on Thursday night
and depart in the afternoon Of Friday
for Laurens.
Our object in calling attention to the
meeting is to urge that all speakers be
given quiet and peaceable hearing.
We sincerely hope there will be no
bowling down business resorted to.
We all remember the meeting at
Helena two years ago, and what for
tunate thing it was that the platform
gave way and possibly averted serious
trouble. Let US hope there will be no
such scene enacted this year. There
is no occasion for it. Let US have a
quiet and peaceable meeting. Demon
strations on these occasions DO not
amount to anything. The votes are the
things that count.
We sincerely hope and believe that
there will be decency and decorum at
the meeting on Friday.

Ido not suppose YOU would object to
receive few items for your paper from
Jalapa.
The Newberry Herald and News is
the senior newspaper published at
Newberry. Your paper has the ma
iority of subscribers at our postofflce
over any other newspaper that IS taken
at Jalapa.
Jack Adams, commonly called "deaf
Jack" was shot in DR.. Clark's horse
lot last night about s O'Clock by Mr..
Ira C. Clamp. 1t was purely acclden-
tai.
Rain. Rain! At Jalapa the corn and
cotton and even the grass are showing
the effects of too much rain. The farm
ers will have to let their crops, or at
least a portion of them, go with the
grass as master. This is an unusual
season for June and July, being too
much rain, but I will say all things
work together for good.
A good many people that attended
the soldiers barbecue on laft Saturday
report the dinner one of the very best
meat and hash dinners without bread
they ever attended. Isuppcse it was
mistake in the committee not to have
bread enough. Afterthe committee had
time to send back to town after more
bread the supply was bountiful. One
of the best things of the reunion was
truly DR.. Grier's talk to the old soldiers.
He is an old soldier bimself, and knows
lust how to talk to the veterans. l
think Gov. Tillman and Gen. Butler
had better get the Rev. DR.. Grier to
make speech or two for their benefit,
as an example. do not think there
would be any rock throwing between
the honorable gentlemen after hearing
this wonderfully gifted gentleman.
Between 1900 and 800 persons, little
and big, were there. That is my count.
What is yours, Mr.. Editor?
There will be a barbecue at Jalapa
the 9Th Of August, being the opening
campaign for our county candidates.
We hope to have all three the editors
from Newberry with US on that day.
The barbecue will be given to have
St. James Lutheran church improved.

Our friend Mr.. J. D. Stone left on
Saturday for Florida, where he will

wish Johnnie success, and trust he
may be we'll pleased with the land OF
flowers.
I heard sermon preached Saturday
afternoon on the streets in Prosperity
by Evangelist Boyd. We were told
that this divine had preached several
sermons on the streets during the
week and that he had poured hot shot
in each sermon preached. Rev. Boyd
comes down on the dispenssry, card
playing, dancing and many other sim
ful habits that people so easily fall into
and soon become hardened to. All
such, be said, was "under q mort
gage to the devil" and some Of these
days the "devil was going to close
out that mortgage" The speaker said
there was persons in Prosperity that
had turned up their noses at him, but
they could hiss him as much as they
pleased, he was going to preach the
truth and he had his Bible as his guide.
He gives the city and country dudes
fits, and says they had bettar turn a
new leaf at once. Of course Evangelist
Boyd is a stranger to this writer, but
we were pleased with his discourse and
trust he may be doing some good.

IfGov. Tillman has the right under
the Act of 1893 to open the Dispensa-y,
he had DO right to close up the busi-
ness. It is piece of absolute dictator
ship for the executive to say that be
can put law passed by the Legisla-
ture in operation or suspend it accord
ing to his own sweet will. This is said
without reference to the constitution
alitv or uncoustitutionality Of the Act
Of 1898. Such proceedings is bad and
dangerous precedent to establish. We
need to have some respect for the law
ful way of doing things.
The Newberry herald and news. (Newberry, S.C.) 1884-1903, 1894-07-25
THE DIsPESSARIES TO OPEN.

Governor Tiilman has issued a proc
lsmation to open the dispensaries. He
claims that the Supreme Court only
passed upon the law of 1892, and did
not touch upon the Act Of 1853. That
being the case it seems very strange
that he should close all dispensaries in
the State. Has one man the right to
say u law that is of force and effective
shall be in operation or suspended at
his own free will? If the law of 1883
was not affected by the decision Of the
court, why stop operations under 1t?
That is assuming great deal of au-
thority. If Governor can so act in
this matter he can in any other, and
he might take any of our laws and hide
out in the bushes, as he says, and make
them of no force. It seems to be going
very far to assume in advance Of what
Justice Gary will hold when he gets
on the bench. Has he indicated to any
one that he believed the law constitu-
tional?
All this abuse of our courts and judges
is one OF the worst features of this new
order OF things. We need to inculcate
and instill respect for law and author
ity. There is 2 spirit Of lawlessness
abroad and much Of it is due to the
cheap buncombe we hear on the stump
whose position should demand Of them
a different course. Even if We do not
agree with the conclusions reached by
the highest courts in the country, we
should accept their decisions as the law
of the case and not go ranting around
about their being governed by factional
prejudice. When the judiciary be-
comes tainted with partisanship and
men are rewarded for their factional
service by positions on the bench, or
the people are LED to believe such is the
case, their rights and liberties and lives
are endangered and the existence of
our free institutions endangered. We
should do everything in our power to
inculcate respect and regard for the
powers that be. Otherwise we are
doing an injury to society and to the
State.
We care very little what is done in
regard to the dispensary. Ifa majority
of the people think that is the solution
of the liquor problem, well and good.
We will submit. However, we do not
believe it the best way to deal with the
problem. The spy and constabulary
system, which its friends say is the
only way to enforce it, will always be
repulsive to a free and li5ertyIloving peo-
pie, and, we believe, will cause blood
shed and az endless amount of trouble.
To start the machinery in operation as
soon as there is change in the COM
plexion of the Supreme Court, presum-
ing on what Judge Gary will hold, will
only intensity the matter. The people
have never had an opportunity to say
whether they want the dispensary or
not. It would be better to let the mat
ter rest until the Legislature meets, but
Gov. Tillman seems to possess all
power and can, and no doubt will, do
as he pleases.

Business Again on August 1st

COLUMBIA, S. c., July 23-4 P. M
South Carolina is all astir to-day. Gov
ernor Tillman yesterday announced
that he would to-day issue an official
proclamation declaring that on August
1st the dispensary would be reopened,
and that the reinforcement of the sus-
pended 1893 law, which it is generally
conceded was declared unconstitutional
by the State Supreme Court; that the
law would be enforced mere rigidly
than ever, and that ten days time will
be given to the liquor men to close
their business and get out of business.
This announcement created great
sensation all over the State this morn
ing.
Gov. Tillman did not come 10 the
Executive Office until noon. In the
meantime there was general activity
about the big State gin mill, an6 many
of the old constables were gathered
about.
Promptly on reaching the Executive
chamber Governor Tillman began the
dictation of his proclamation, which
reads as follows:
