The Dispensary.

The editor Of the Press and Banner has been
a teetoller all his life, aud from his earliest
childhood he has never let an opportunity
pass to give the liquor traffic blow.
&. Until we saw the practical operation of the
dispensary. we never saw the day when we
were not prohibitionist
In the days that are gone Abbeviile had ex-
perience with licensed bars, and we had a sea.
son OF prohibition, and for several years we
have bad the dispensary. Under the dlspen-
sary laH we have had less tippling and less
drunkenness than we ever had under either
the license system or prohibition.
The editor OF the Press and Banner has
lived on the Public Square ever since the war,
and he thinks he knows whereof he speaks
when he says that the dispensary law has
done more good for the sobriety and good or.
der Of the town than any law that we have
ever had.
Prohibition did not prohibit, because we had
no constables to enforce the law, and the dis.
pensary would not bring its wholesome effects
IL We had no constables to prevent the Illicit
traffic in liquor.
Any unholy alliance of liquor men with
prohibitionists 10 break down the dispensary
has failed and will fail.
And any attempt to curtail the liquor busi-
ness In any State will fail as long as the cities
dominate the State.

The Legislature is making some effort TO
suppress the habit of carrying concealed
deadly weapons. This Is right. The habit
should be stopped, and one way to punish the
violater of the law Is 10 raise the salary OF
the Solicitor, when he would prosecute with
more vigor. If the Circuit Judge receives
salary of $1,000 1t is evident that the Solicitor
should receive sum equal to that OF the
Judge That of the Solicitor Is the more I'M
portant office. If the Solicitor falls short oil
his full duty in representing the State in
prosecuting offenders against the peace of the
State, there is no way to correct his mistakes.
neglect or omissions. But II the jury errs, or
If the Circuit Judge makes mistake there is
q way 10 correct their errors. The represen-
tative OF the government should be the ablest
man on the Circuit and the State should not
think OF employing a cheap Solicitor, neither
should the commonwealth ask a high class
man to represent her Interests at less than
full pay. Anybody can sill as Judge or juror
juror is nothing more nor less than judge.
The juror has the Circuit Judge TO correct his
errors. and the Circuit Judge has the Supreme
Court to set him straight when he gets off the
right track. But 1t isn't everybody who can
be States attorney. According TO the way
the Press and Banner looks at II, the Solici-
tor should outrank both the juror and the cir
cult judge in the matter Of pay and in the
importance OF his Office. Even supposlng the
Solicitor to be the ablest men in the circuit,
he has hard time of 1t when he has TO meet
two or three OF the best men of the circuit.
He should at least be the equal of the best OF
them. Then pay fair price to the Solicitor.

Editor Aull OF the Newberry Herald and
News has some sensible remarks on the sub
ject of country papers clubbing with city pa
pers and magazines. Our experience Is very
much In accord with the remarks Of Bro.
Aull. When this editor first entered the
Press and Eanner office he found a system OF
clubbing In existence. 1t was continued for
year or so. We found that the clubbing gave
US more trouble than the whole of the balance
OF our subscription list, and if we ever gained
a cent for our trouble we never knew Of 1t.
Speaking for this newspaper we do not in
tend to exercise curse elf about increasing the
circulation of any OF the cheap publications,
whose chief merit or lack of value may con-
sist in their cbeapness.
The people of every county will find that
good local county paper is worth more 10
them than any of the foreign published pa
pers, which seldom or never have word to
say Of any man or any enterprise in their
county.
Another thing. This editor would think
that he had lost something of his self-respect,
and had done foolish thing If he undertook
TO persuade his subscribers TO quit his own
paper to take seventy-fve cents paper.
If the average country editor will work on
his own paper, and cease to work against his
own interest ne will posper more.
And still another matter. We believe. to
say nothing of an indefinite amount OF work,
that no country editor can make as many
subscribers as he losses by any such arrange.
ment.
/, If any country editor has any doubt of the
naaitiOn which ha aesppoc In hooo,,ing a
clubber, lei him find out II the city editor
will exercise himself in behalf or the coun.
try gudgeon.
