WHO THE CRIERS ARE.

The cry ;hat personal liberty is invaded by COM
pelhng saloonkeepers to do what Is required Of
others on Sunday is the cry Of men whose craft is
in danger. Of brewers and disters who have long
heaped up riches by the violation Of the Sunday law
the cry. OF the demagOEUes and blackmailinE poti-
cal managers who desire to make personal or
party capital and Of misguided persons, both for
eign and native, who think they should nave the
same liberty they would have in the wilderness.
AS long ago as the time of Tacitus he found II
necessary 10 say 'The word liberty has been false
" used by persons who, being degenerated. profit
gate in private life and mischievous in public. had
no hope left but in fomenting discOrd.' Many Of
the people do not know the meaning of the word
liberty.
They hawl for freedom in their senseless moods
And sti1 revolt when truth would SCI them free.

ADAY OF REST DECREED.

The State also has gone further 1t has decrced

IL particularly forbids the saloon to open on that

On the 2lst day OF this month, to wit,

cabinet strike their tents at Washing
ton to invade Atlanta. The President
won his way to the White House on
his first venture by the skin OF his
teeth, deadly blunder of an old ALTER
alter, "rum, romanism, and rebellion"
struck terror to the Probabilities, gave
to the South her opportunity, assisted
herto herfeet and to the attitude which
she now stoutly and confidently holds.
He was the friend of the South in her
day of need and while many of her peo-
pie repudiate mis- late financial poll
cies, all will unite in extending to him
a noble recognition, as is due this
great statesman and President Of the
whole people.

Free Trade aud no Monopoly.

Inthe edition OF the New York World
OF October 9th james Creelmap, a spe-
cial correspondent, writing from Co
lambda, the little capital village of this
little State, prints an extraordinary
production.
The Tillmans, but specially THE
TILLMAN is the subject text. While
the very elaborate letter is over the
signature OF Creelman, it bears the well
known ear marks OF Benjamin himself
and Is beyond doubt the joint produc-
tion OF the nominal correspondent and
the junior Senator from South Caro-
lima. We have all heard and seen and
felt OF Benjamin and we cannot be
fooled, and readily recognize his
handiwork wherever 1t is met and m
competent experts as to the genuine
ness ofthe performance. The produc.
tion introduces Tillman to the audi
ence ofthe great World, sets him up as
q cosmopolition figure, which draws
him from his pent-up Utica, where
dwell his ''boys," and hencefor ward,
We III OuE COuUIaCbCo oDhCIC, oI0 hO
longer to have monopoly Of his eccen-
trio and amazing capacities and abili-
ties as SO graphically represented in
this jointproduction. The performance
is emphatically Tillmanic and then
again 1t Is not, Creelman the cores
pondent creeping out here and there
and the readers all the while hearing
the notes of Jacob and feeling the
touch OF Esau. Tillman is presented
by the TOUT ENSEMBLE a unique hero,
Of such a tumble Of qualities wild, will
full, wise and otherwise that the
try has not seen or read of the like be-
fore, and the prophecy is made of such
an apparition in the United States
Sena;e, should next December come,
as only cycles and not centuries can
vouchsafe to a great family Of States
and peoples. 1t is well probably that
the country is advised in time, that
due preparation may be had of the COM
ing phenomenon, and the country is
blessed in the authorship, as the fig
ure is probably faithfully drawn and
from familiarity the shock will be not
so great AMI somewhat softened. In
the meanwhile it makes little differ
ence If Creelman is laughing at Till
mar or Tillman at Creelman. SouSn
Carolina puts forward, before the
world, throug 9Th the agency oIhe great
New York newspaper: her mammoth
product, to prevent oily surprise or
shock and the whole country has the
.heneft of the advanced programme
Let'the country therefore render due
thanks tovthe joint authorship. Free
trade and no monopoly is good politics
as we'll as sound philosophy. Tillman
from'now henceforth and forever full
fills his fair destiny and is given up to
these United States and perchance to
mankind.

A Temperance Measure.

On circus day at Spartanburg the
beautiful substitute for the bar-rooms
measure-the State dram shop sold 5000
worth of the chemically pure. A gen.
eral drunk, and fifty fights ensued
among the motley patrons Of the cir
Gus. The mayor imposed fines $500
putting the ~exchequer of that model
city in royal condition. Governor Ev-
ans is much encouraged at the flourish
ing condition Of the dispensary trade
and the taxpayers over the State will
be refreshed by the favorable report.
The daily papers should publish once q
week the Estate Of trade" In which we
are all embarked as a christian peo-
pie, that we all may be cheered at the
startlingly moral progress we are
making. We say nothing of the broken
heads of the victims except that they
