The auditors bill is a kind of a

DC good Idea tU take the constables
Out OF those counties (Marlboro, Hor-
ry,, Pickens and Oconee) and lot the
people thore see what prohibition
meant without constables.. Gov. Till
man does not think it will be long
before every county in the State will
have dispensary. Elections have to
be held to authorize dispensaries he
fore they can be opened:"
Pickens county does not need a
dispensary. It already knows what
prohibition means without constables,
and it gets on fuirly well And we
hasten to say that we do not believe
disrens"ry i'll this county would
more than pay expenses, rs we have
no very populous towns.
Since the good people of Central
eradicated the illegal sale of whiskey
from that town, it has been as order
~ and we'll behaved as any com,nuni.
ty. 1t is begging the question to say
that people will have whl9key. A few
people will have it,, but they are as
nothing compared to the many who
have never been corrupted orindulged,
but who would yield quickly to the
temptation legalized and held out to
them by the State. Putting State
officers and church members in
charge of whiskey stores will catch
many good, luw-abiding boy, who
would never dream Of going among
the roughs in u bar room, or steuiiny
out under the cover of darkness to
buy contrabund poison. Our people
are not in the habit of drinking, and
the moral, religious and fnancrul re
suits are not such as will justify the
State in All effort to push it's trude for
revenue into a frontier county like
Pickeus.
We arc afraid that many in the
State already, Who never before pat.
romiH2a nar-rooms, have learned to
drink since they can purchase
whiskey from the sovereign State
We will SOON find that there is Il wide
difference III the old law, which per.
mitted Il few citizens under high
license to sell whiskev, and the new
law, which pays State officers md
requires them to sell it, 1t certainly
must be some help to the devil to
get tho impromntur of the State put,
both on whiskey and tho snle of it,
and then have the active CO cooperation
OF State officers and church meu-
bcrs. Who will be the first to handle
the poison in this county? Who will
first wave the fire brand! Where
arc the prayers Of pious mothers, and
the votes Of godly fathers! Where
are the watchmen that stand upon
our towers? Politics and the devil
want your sons and dau9hters-they
want your homes. They arc blood
thirsty hell-hounds If they once
gain admittance, they will rend the
child and the mother, and cut the
strong man in pieces. Spoil our
cut off our iiocks and herds,
but leave our youth uncorrupted and
our homes happy.
If It is unlawful to sell whiskey
within three miles of Clemson College,
it is wrong to sell it in Pickens county.
Every three miles square in the county
has place more sacred than Clemson
College has ever had time to be.

TO hc Editor pI he IaeiinJtHa.r,
SIG:-In Senator Voorhees, speech In.
Producing tho Wilson bill IN tho United
States senate occurs this expression:
III believed FREQ wool would hurt tho
farmer | would not vote for tho pending
bill" lilo then asscrta that 1t Ia n mat.
ter OF actual demonstration that FREQ
wool, with reductions In wooden goods,
which the farmer has TO buy and which
Is provided for In tho Wilson bill, would
DO tho greatest blessing that could be-
fall tho farmer. (llc docs not gIyc tho
demonstration, however,. Tho question
comes up, how much OF Il blessing would
the farmer receive Of having FREQ trade
in place OF protection In ordor to asccr.
tain tho extent Of tho blessing con.
ferrod?
have mado careful estimate OF the
amount OF WOODEN goods used by m
average wcll.to.do farmer in ono year,
having iarmcd some myself in tho pnst,
and ! assert that an average farmers
family of five or six persons, II they
used all foreign goods, under protection,
would not pay as duty more than Sl5 to
S25 year, and Ii they used American
made goods might not pay anything.
1t would depend on tho kind OF goods
used. But how Is the farmer to know
what duty he pays? 10 can easily test
tho matter without taking any mans
say So
Let him weigh all tho wooden goods
used in ono year, and multiply tho
number OF pounds by tho cents per
pound duty, which in tho Mckinley
bill is IL ccnts for fine wooden goods
and cents on carpet and coarscr woola.
On his carpets, according to quality,
tho duty would DO TO 10 cents por
yard. Tho duty paid for clothing for
tho class indicated would be about 81
for each person. Lot every farmer
test 1t. but DO sure tho goods tested are
all wool.
Now. II no can save SO by getting his
wooden goods free, how much Is ho
likely to lose, on tho other hand. by
free trade?
We will suppose he has 100 sheep,
which in the simple shadow OF tho vii.
son bill arc reduced in price 500, and
