years. Col. Jones, the local member
of the board, was elected chairman of
the body aud better selection could
not possibly have been made. The
board after talking over matters for
some time went into the election of the
staff officers to carry out the work OF
the board and reelected all of the
present attaches, only changing the
names OF the places to conform to the
new law. The appointees were Clerk
OF the board and bookkeeper of the
board, Seth w. Scruggs, bookkeeper
to the commissioned, K. E. Blakeney !;
assistant bookkepper, Chas. Lynch I;
superintendent, John L. Castor clerk
in charge OF the constabuary, w. w.
Harris; shipping clerk, ID. A. G. Outz.
OF course, the board had nothing to do
with the commissioner as his term of
Office continues Il year lonEor.
The new board held afternoon and
night sessions, but not much was givsn
out for publication. The board seems
to be hard working and getting along
very harmoniously. AT the afternoon
session series OF rules were adopted
for the government Of the dispensary
and these will likely be given out as
soon as they are prepared for the press
and printed. At the night session the
purchase OF liquor was considered by
the board. There were about eighteen
representatives Of liquor houses on
hand and it was thought better to re-
ceive written offers from each of the
houses represented than to hear them
and so the board took up the offers,
out no final action was taken.

THE new DISPENSARY BOARD.
The Organization Effected without
Any TrOublc--NO Changes i'm the

Special to the News and Courier.

Special to the News and Courier
1t is somewhat Of coincidence that
the famous Raines bill should go into
effect almost at the same time as tic
new order Of things with the South
Carolina dispensary law. In New
York the chief subject Of conversation
is the effect the Raines bill will have
on business and politics. There the
idea seems to be to ccntralizc the con-
troll of the liquor business, so that
what they call the "Platt machine !"
may have control of matters. In South
Carolina, instead Of having the Cover
nor to run tho whole business, board
of five is now to have general charge
OF the liquor business. The change in
South Carolina is a mere incident in
the operation Of the Gispcnsary law
while in New York the talk is that
tho approval Of the Raines bill has
killed the hopes of Governor Morton
for the Presidential nomination, and
that he could not carry the State for
anything. In New York State it is
said that as a result Of the business OF
the Raincs bill a Democratic State
ticket is sure to be elected. The change
of affairs in South Carolina will have
but little, If any, effect on the State
Government.
Every one in New York was on the
tiptoc OF expectation on the eve of the
change in Now York, whom the free
| lunches and front door screens had to
go under the provisions OF tho bill
while with tho new order Of things il
South Carolina the change came about
as naturally as the most commonplace
law goes into operation.
With the exception OF those i'm
mediately interested in the Offices anC
the sales Of goods to the dispensary
few took any interest in what wa
going on in the board meeting. They
want to see the results OF the change

THE VIEWS OF A GREAT MAN.
The Silver Question Stated i'm Plain
Language by Alex. III. Stephens.

The following letter from Alexander
II. Stephens, written January 26, 1882,
states the silver question in plain Ian
guage and tells the whole story in a
few words. 1t was written prior to
the first election Of Mr. Cleveland, and
when all Democrats were supposed to
be unanimous in condemning TIN crime
Of 1873, for which the Republicans
were responsible originally. No matter
what one believes now as to the silver
question this letter from the great com
moner OF Georgia will prove Interesting
and'profitable reading
WASHINGTON, ID. c., Jan. 26, 1882.
Mr.. FL. d. Barrows, Los Angles, Cal.
My dear Sir Your letter of the
18th instant with enclosed slips was
received this evening. The subject is
one of the gravest that now occupies
the attention of Congress and the
thinking men throughout the United
States. The reason that silver bullion
has been deprecated since 1873 in this
country is that Congress in February
1873, struck silver from the lists O
money in the United States. The
moment that this act of Congress wal
passed gold was made the only stan
dard of values in this country. Tha
was u great error and was ATTENDED
with Infinite mischief in the United
States.

Means an Appeal to the Negro.

Senetor II. b. Watson, Of Edgefeld
who has always been warm frIent
and strong admirer of Senator B r
Tillman, has written the following
letter Of admonition and counsel to the
people of tie State:
| Editor Register: | have never writ
ten an article for publication. l fee
that it would be criminal to be silent
now when the very existence OF the
Democratic party in South Carolina is
threatened. [ am a Democrat and |

shall feel it my duty to strike with oil
my might all enemies of the party
whoever they may be. Let all those
who do not believe in majority rule
leave the party and form such alliances
as they choose. But let all Democrats
stand firm. l shall stick to the party
OF my fathers, and If she goes down 1
will go with her. Let US all fight for
our rights in the party.
Senator Tillman has made great
mistake in advising our people to
leave the party. We owe her much
and we must stand by her to the end
Az YOU VIZ iCGNS tuo Ouly pdrGy GDaG las
helped us in the past II we cannot con-
troll it in every particular to-day? 1t is
OF the utmost Importance that our
Whlte people stand firmly together.
Ii Senator Tillman's advice is followed
there will be a permanent division of
our white people and ultimately an ap-
peal to the negro. 1t is crime to
bring about such condition.
Senator Tillman says "our one over
powering and overmastering issue in
State affairs has been white suprema-
cy, and this under the conditions ex-
listing before the new Constitution was
adopted made revolt against the white
majority nothing less than crime"
And, | say, it is no less crime to-day.
He may call us towards and sycO-
plants and treacherons leaders now
as Democrats" but we
will fight for the good old party against
all her cnemies-the only party in
which our rights are assured
The Piedmont Headlight says truly
The word Democrat in the South
means more than any political move
ment. 1t means the rule of the white
majority.
In conclusion let me say again to
every true Democrat in South Caro-
lima, stand firm. Be true to the party
of your fathers. Fight all her enemies.

States and the representatives the
people. a hundred years ago there
was something in that, but there is
nothing now. In my opinion the people

do the governor and all other officers

lors in wisdom, and who would protect
the rights of States, and small State
! had as much powers as large one. But
| that is a thing of the past. States
| rights have gone into q state Of innoc-
uous doseuetude and money has more
to do with senator's fitness than age
or wisdom. There is no good reason
why Rhode Island should have as much
power as Texas or Pennsylvania. If
population should settle it then New
York should have forty-eight senators.
Ii territory should settle it then Texas
should have 1000 in proportion to
such body at all. One house Is enough
and there la no good reason in eighty
four men In the Senate overriding 300
in the House. The constitution re-
quires senator to be thirty years
old; he should be sixty. Then he
would have moro sense and less am
bition.
Well, l never voted for senator in
my life and many one has been fill
bustered through the legislature that
| would not have voted for and the
people would not have chosen. A
shrewd, ambitious man can play 'par-
lez vous" with POO men, but be can't
do it with 200,000-so let us all vote
this time.
And now let the great battle for the
next president come on. This is an age
OF surprises and the Democracy is not
dead. nor its great principles aoandon-
ed. wouldn't bet on its success, but
we were not very sanguine the last
time. The Populists will be in the
fight pretty strong and there is no tell
ing which way the cat is going to jump.
Both parties are bidding for their vote
and some wise men predict that there
will be no election by the people but
Mckinley and his Southern friends are
sanguine and jubilant One of them
made speech in our town and said,
with uplifted hand, "that Charley Nc
kinley would sweep the deck of the
old ship of State like Napoleon Bona
parte swept the field at the battle of
Waterloo" And all the colored breth-
rem shouted, amen. But if we have to
take Republican, | believe had rather
risk Mckinley than any of them. He
has never abused the South malicious

IF a Northern man.
