Scarcely had the announcement been
made through the press of the
State that Governor Ellerbe had dis
banded the constabulary force and
entrusted the enforcement of the
dispensary law to the municipal au-
thorities of the cities and towns, be-
fore many Of these same papers, par
ticularly those in Charleston, made
the startling announcement Of the
presence Of numerous blind tigers
known. Prior to the. removal of the
constables the mere mention Of the
presence of a blind tiger in any com-
munity Was sufficient to cause the
self righteous to lift their hands and
roll their eyes in holy horror, and any
attempt to bring the yiolators of law
and order TO justice was regarded as
an invasion upon the sacred rights
and liberties Of the people, and the
State officers held up to public con-
tempt aud scorn. Since then no Wis
bic effort, as far as we have noticed
in our exchanges. has been made to
stop the illicit sale of whisky and ap-
prehend the violators. II by chance
a tiger is indicted, jury cannot be
had who would convict upon the
strongest and most unimpeachable
testimony. That was Il sad com
mertary upon our citizenship and a
disgrace upon our Christian ciyiiiza-
ton, when intelligent men of a city
whose pride and boast has always
been the deep love and reverence Of
law an order, declare in open court
and upon their oath that they are
50 harrow minded and proiudiced
and weak as to be incapable
OF finding a verdict according to the
law and evidence. 1t has become
more and more apparent each DAY
that the proper enforcement Of the
dispeDsary law demand the re estab-
li>bmcnt Of the constabuiary system
and We are glad that Indications point
to this being done at no distant Gate

LAYING Their WIRES.

l. is rather carly i'll the season to
calculate with any degree Of accuracy
the probable current Of political
events in the fall elections next year
and to forecast the issues upon the
success of which depend the elevation
to power and Office the faroritcs oI
political factions. Notwithstanding
this unpropitious season ior tie heal
thy growth Of candidates, politicians
have already commenced to lay their
wires, feel the pulses Of the "dear
people" and prescribe an infalllble
panacea, according t. their diagnosis,
for every financial i'll of Il desper-
ately sick body polite.
The State is filled with candidates
and rumors of would be candidates
all the way from Governor down to
Coroner. Nearly every county IN
the State has a candidate for some
Office whose fitness for the position
for which he is urged, in majority
of cases, seem to be that they are
sons of the county and are, therefore,
entitled to receive the support of their
fellow electors. There are others
whose claim ior preferment lay in
the fact that they are the Reformer
OF Reformers, or the bitterest and
most vindic.ire Conservative Of them
all, or they were the strongest friend
or foe to the dispensary system Of
controlling the sale Of whisky. 10
these classes and their friends these
claims seem to be all sufficient and
ali important to give them a clear
title to some office.
Unless we greatly misapprehend the
trend Of public events and the flow of
public sentiment all minor and barrow
minded issues will not be tolerated
ard he who expects to use them as
an open sesame to office will have woe
ful disappointment for his pains.
From the decaying memories OF the
bitterness and strife Of late years
which has kept the blood of men
and brothers boiling and their carual
passions at fever heat, there has
spraUg up among the better clement a
more patriotic purposeto let the dead
past bury its dead aud to select the
best men. irrespective Of past fac
tional affiliations, TO rule over the
dcstiuies of the STATE. Merit and
competency will hereafter be, as they
should have been i'll the past, the
test by which aspirants vii! be Gle
waited to power. We hail the dawn
of Il new aud brighter era for South
Carolina with thankful and CRATE
ful heart and welcome the cessation
of factional strife and bitterness
as the forerunper Of brighter and
more prosperous future.
