South Carolina Were TO indulge in a gigantic
spree from one years end 10 the other the
dispensary party would fail into ecstatic
delight.
But 1T must be official "booze." 1t
must bear the Palmetto trademark, None
genuine unless blown in the bottle" An
unofficial drunk is "aliunde," so far as
party allegiance and obedience to the
law are concerned. 1t is wrong for a man
TO get drunk on whisky bought outside
Of dispensary, but "dulce est pro patria
bibere."
Such has been the gospel of the party,
and now has come Judge Goff and knocked
The whole business into cooked hat He
has not given judicial sanction, to be sure,
TO jag, whether official or otherw Use,
but he has declared that man may, under
the Constitution, get drunk on whisky i'm
ported by himself, as well as by the State,
ana none may say him nay
What effect this decision will have upon
South Carolina sobriety and politics the
future alone can tell.

the gamblers across the river will have
to lay down their sceptres.
On the 23d of this month the contest of
strength between right and wrong in Alex

side are arrayed the gambler forces,
strengthened by the purchasable vote, and
on the other are the friends OF law and

gamblers now control the county it must
be admitted the situation is not encourage

THE NEW ALEXANDRIA SCHEME.

THE NEW ALEXANDRIA SCHEME.
Following up it's avowed purpose OF ex-
posing all schemes to take money from the
public without giving adequate return,
The Times this morning publishes descrip-
tion OF the New Alexandria Improvement
Company. This is done entirely ia the in
terests OF persons who might be induced
TO place their money in the hands OF spec
Ulators, and in this connection At should
be explained that The Times has refused to
advertise the New Alexandria project for
the same reason that it Will not ihdorse
tramp stores, outlaw tracks and ether
questionable enterprises
No board OF sensible, legitimate pro-
5ectors would ever undertake 10 build
manu- featuring town where there are 10
railroads and on the banks OF a marsh.
Not even a briekyard could thrive on the
location selected FOR New Alexandria for
want of facilities to transport its product
TO market. With each ebb OF the tide the
water front becomes a malaria breeding
sink OF marsh vegetation, and c:iills and
fever should make doctors more necessary
to the successful populating OF this enter
prise than almost anything else except
money.
No city in the world can offer more
suitable locations for working people or
better sites for factories than csl3 lie found
around Washington. There are also many
beautiful reside nee properties in other
sections of Alexandria County, and people
who allow themselves to be persuaded
into Investing in such a marsh surrounded
spot as New Alexandria DIust have been
deluded by exaggerated advertising.
1T is safe plan to never invest ia prop
erty that has neither real Oor speculative
value.

] Some Facts.

The new woman is a success until she
meets the new servant.
A mans past is measured by his sins;
q woman's by her loves.
Uncle Sam, having borrowed $50, ,000,-
600, will now be able to spend the whole
week in q fashionable Florida hotel
There is one huge consolation in the re-
port that the puff-seeves are to be made
still larger. 1t insures more elbow-room
at dinner parties.
The only reason why a woman should
not propose is that one rejection would
crush her proud spirit. With the average
man nothing under fifteen noes is serious.
He is built in the way to stand it.-Judge.
