LEI~TIEE~ ~EEIISPENSARY ALONE

LEgTzHrHsPENsARy ALONE
The constant cry has been that the
State ought not to engage IN the
liquor business, in which we fully
concur, but the brethren who are
clamoring for in dividual licenses for
the sale OF liquor are not taking the
State out of the business by any
means. True, it sanctions and ap-
provesstbessale of liquor indirectly,
but it is none the less a partner IN
the business, as it would derive
direct revenue from the liquor traffic.
The proposed restriction as to selling
in uabroken packages, not to be
drunk on the premises, is copied from
the dispensary law, which is a dis
tinct concession to its advantages.
individuals who sell liquor for profit
are going to make large sales, if pos
sible, and the experience OF the past
shows that they will not scruple to
sell clandestinely and in violation OF
the law. Saloon-keepers were con-
stantly evaaing the law by buying
moonshine whiskey and re6lling
stamped packages, and they would
do it again, even though they were
under heavy bonds. The demand
for individual licenses means step
backward in controlling the liquor
evil, and we would prefer direct
governmental control OF the traffic.
County management under the board
of township commissioners, with all
the restrictions that can be devised,
and with the local machinery of the
law to enforce the restrictions, would
seem to promise more for the reguls-
ton of the evil than to start back on
the road to the open saloon.-Green-
vile Mountainees.

ing of Cooper, but we do not consider
this case case of lynching, it was
nothing more nor less than the hunt
ing and putting to death a wild beast
that was prowling about, Speeding
death and destruction in his pathway.
Cooper, in our opinion, was crazy
man, but his insanity was of such
nature that death alone was the only
cure. The newspapers condemning
the manner of Cooper's death would
be doing far better service did they
condemn the tardiness of the law
officers when Cooper began his career
of devilment; if the officers had acted
promptly the Wilson family would
not have been on his bloody list.

they were out of work, starving, OF

Coliseum Hall, Sunday afternoon,
and listened to number of red hot
speeches against the members OF the
city council clamoring for work. The
meeting was held in the Coliseum
Hall in response to call. The
SD .a>rs were Rev. Thomas Uzzell
and Rev. Mvron W. Reed, the gentle
men who have always been consider
ed friends of the oppressed and
needy. The former suggested that
the quickest way to bring about the
change for the better was to lake out

to keep the unemployed busy, that
the mouths of the hungry might be

POLICE.

While in Charleston last week we
accepted an invitation to visit police
headquarters and we spent an hour
their with interest. The headquart-
ers is model Of neatness and every
thing is so Systematically arranged
that at a moments notice company
of men could be sent out to quell a
riot. The horses are trained to per-
fection, and at the sound of the gong
patrol wagon is bitched up and off
TO the post of disturbance in twink
ling. The officials are all couteous
and they take pleasure in showing
visitors through. We made some
>ipquries as to the working of the
metropolitan a7o'1oe and We found
a record surprising to US. The poll
ticians can pirate about home rule as
much as they please, but the metro
politan police system is giving them
more home rule than they ever hao
before; the members of the force are
Charleston citizens and the regula-
tions will not permit man on the
force who is not bonaide voter OF
the city. Chief Martin is a terror to
egil-doers and Jim Hogan "don't do
thing" but land the light fingered
gentry behind the bars, and from
what we saw on the records at the
station We are convinced that all
cities should have similar system.
Many people have been led to be-
ieye that the present police system in
Charleston is a machine of oppression
and the people there, are praying
for It to be taken away; this We found
to be false, and if a vote were taken
by the property holders in that city

almost golden, falling in q rich veil

singing her wondrous song, asa being

But Berthald had always been q fra
