THE DISPENSARY DECISION,

There have been sc many sensa-
tional and misleading statements
about the decision of the South
Carolina dispensary case that it is
well to understand just what the
decision is The dispensary law
not only forbids the sale of liquor
anywhere in the State except at a
dispensary, but it prohibits its
Importation for personal use.
twas only this latter provision
which was tested in the case just
decided by the Supreme curt.
The statement that the dispen-
sary law itself has been declared
unconstitutional has been made by
those who did not examine the de-
cision carefully. But for the act
of Congress Of August s, 1890,
no issue would have been raised
over the portion of the South Car
DINA law which forbids the i'm
portation of liquor for private
use.
In 1890 the Supreme Court de-
cided in an Iowa case that liquor
imported into a prohibition State
could be sold there in spite of the
local law so long as it remained in
the original package.
Almost Immediately after this
decision Congress passed an act
making all liquor imported into a
State subject to the police power
of that State Immediately on its
arrival.
The State authorities and courts
of South Carolina held that this
statute gave South Carolina the
right to seize liquor brought into
the State for private use. The
Supreme Court decides that the
State authorities have no such
power. The decision says that to
prohibit the importation of liquor
by a citizen of any State is to in
terfere with interstate commerce.
The argument is very like Il at
used in the original package deci-
sion, and the act of Congress
passed to give effect to State legs
islation on liquor imported III
original packages is held not to
prevent importations for private
nse. A citizen of South Carolina
may not import and sell liquor UNI
der this decision, but he may inn
port without limit for himself and
his friends. The dispensary law
Of South Carolina will operate
hereafter only on those who DO
NOT care or cannot afford to send
outside the State for their liquor.
In his dissenting opinion, JUS
lice Brown holds that the act of
1890 was clearly intended to al
low each State to regulate or re-
strict in good faith the sale and
consumption of liquor within it
limits. The trainers of the law
Hid not contemplate at that time a
STATE monopoly of the liquor trafs
&c and the language OF that act,

A NORTHERN ESTIMATE OF
LEE.

1t may be said that Rober E
Lee was the oae man conspicu.
Gus in the civil wal agains'
whom detraction and calumny
were never directed.
Some of the most beautiful
tributes to him have come from
the North, and no man was ever
more universally beloved by his
own people.
The Washington Post, owned
and directed by northern men,
made Lees birthday the occasion
of the following editorial:
Ninety years ago. to-day.
was born Robert E. Lee. His
forefathers had been distinguish
ed for patriotism and valor in the
war of the revolution, for SER
vice under the great republic
which they had done so much to
establish. for courage, for pas
triotism, for unselfsh devotion
to their country. His was a
family of brave and honorable
men. of vlrtuous and noble wo-
men. It's traditions were of good
faith, of loyalty, of courtesy, of
chivalry.' And Robert E. Lee
was worthy of his ancestry, had
no need to borrow their refect-
ed light, was in himself a history
and a model.
The world is familiar with his
record. The world knows that he
was no fomenter of secession,
that at the last, according to his
simple creed and condition, be
went with his kindred and his
people. The world knows also
that from the beginning to the
end of the war he was the ideal
captain-pure as Galfahad, gas
liant and strenuous as Launce>
lot. His admirers knew no limi-
tations on continent or country.
He was admired by the North as
sincerely as by the South. He
took into thefrst battle a 'scutch-
con stainless as the midday sun.
He sheaLhed at Appomattcx al
sword as bright as Arthur'S.

memory. He left behind him no
cause of bitterness, sorrow or
resentment.
All of US, north, south, east or
west, can be proud Of Robert r.
Lee. Than he there had been no
finer product Of America, Gentle
as he was brave, chivalrous as
he Was intrepid, unsullied of
thought or deed as he was indom>
Of spirit. Robert E. Lee
in himself every quail
ity that appeals to the love, the
reverence, and the admiration Of
SGeadfastly, Loyalty,
thoroughly, he did his duty as he
saw it. What could man do
more?'
Not the people of every sec
of this country alone, but
the people of the civilized world
endorse this estimate Of one who
Lord Wolseley has said was the
noblest character and the great
est man he ever knew.

That fact is greatly in the past's
favor. but who doesn't wish that
it were a little less secure, and
that some par's of it could get

If there is any sentiment in a
person it is going to bubble to
the surface when Spring comes,
and when a year takes its fight,

the TWO peculiar styles of bub-
bling will case a person to feel

the premises, as we figure it out,
is between the cheerful and the
melancholy.
he fight of time, to come
dc wn to facts, is a subject, for
thought. 1t should not be a
subject for tears, even though the
poet has so decreed. Tears are
too unavailing in a case where
time is concerned. "Of all fruit
less errands. sending a tear to
look after a day that is gone is
the most fruit:ess," says Dickens
in Nicholas Nickleby, and truth
fully he says it.
The holiday season vanished
like a dream. and we are now
having a lull that always sue

will talk just a little while longer
