The Prohibition convention
which met in Chicago nominated
John ]. Woolly of Indiana for
president, and Henry B. Metcale
of Rhode Island for Vice Pres,
ident, and as their conven-
ton was about to adjourn the
delegates sang BLESSED be the
tie that binds. - We wonder
if our South Carolina Prohibi-
tionists echo the same sentiment
and feel that to be consistent,
they must vote for the National
prohibition nominees? The reg
ular Democrats in this State
who are supporting candidates
that are not the nominees OF
a faction, are supporting
Bryan and Stevenson. If a
man is a real, earnest Prohl-
bitionist, and is supporting that
idea as religious principle. to
be consistent he must support
prohibition wherever he finds it,
whether in the nation OF the
State. No man can consistently
be a State Prohibitionist and
an advocate of liquor.

M'SWEENEY AND E0YT ARE NEWSPAPER
MEN.

We heard strong supporter
Of Colonel Hoyt say, that the
newspapers are supporting Gov
ernor McSweeney, because he is
a newspaper man. What is Col
onel Hoyt? He is now, and has
been for many years, the editor
of the Greenville Mountaineer,
and in that paper last December
advocated a coalition between
the License advocates and Pro
hibitionists to repeal the dispen-
sary law. He and McSweeney
have both been presidents OF the
State Press Association, and as
far as the newspapers are con-
cerned both Hoyt and Nc
Sweeney have equal claims. If
McSweeney is getting the larg-
estsupport from the newspapers,
it is because both Hoyt and Nc
Sweeney are known to the edi-
tors, and they believe that Nc
Sweeney's administration de-
serves endorsement.
Colonel Hoyt is personally
popular with the newspaper pro-
fession, but his mermaid Dis
pensary- Prohibition platform is
not regarded a good thing for
South Carolina.
If McSweeney and Hoyt's
newspaper associates, men,
whose business it is to study
public affairs, support Nc
Sweeney, it is a first class guild
ance for the voters generally.
We notice, the few newspapers
which are supporting Colonel
Hoyt, are those that have always
fought the dispensary bitterly,
and a least one Of them has in
directly advocated the violation
of the law. We know of no
paper in South Carolina now
supporting IHoyt, that at any
time supported the dispensary.
The Columbia State and the
Darlington News have always
fought with disgusting bitter
ness the dispensary and prohi-
bition, and both of these ultra
papers are now supporting Hoyt
hoping, if he is elected the license
system will get back.

ISionedl ]. X. PERRY.
Bro. Perry does not dispute the
fact that Col. Hoyt at one time
advocated ''high license" as al
legged by Brother Gardner, he
only says he did not write the
article charging Brother Hoyt,
and then goes on to say, But
whatever views Col. Hoyt may
have held in the past, he now
declares himself to be a good
Prohibitionist. and as such |
shall give him my support" But
Col. Hoyt, in his speech in Man
ming, disputed Brother Gardner,
editor of The South Carolina
Baptist, and declared that he
never had advocated license.
Now which Of these gentlemen
IS correct, Rev. G.. W. Gardner,
who asserts that Col. Hoyt did
advocate license, or Rev. W. W.
Keys, who assumes responsible
itv for one certain "license" edito'
rial. or Col. Hoyt, who is run
ming as candidate for an office:
Somebody is wrong, sure. Il
Col. Hoyt is wrong, is he the
"good Prohibitionist" he pro
fesses to be?

THE PAST FORGIVEN.

The exposure of Col. Hoyt'<
position on the liquor question
by Rev. G. W. Gardner, one ot
the editors of the South Caroline
Baptist, and which was repro
duced in these columns, has stir
red up a small-sized row among
the Baptist brethren. Rev. W.
W. Keys, in the defense of Col.
Hoyt, assumes responsibility fol
a high license editorial which
appeared in the Baptist Courier,
but Brother Gardner comes back
at Brother Keys and asserts that
he was not alluding to one edi-
torial, but a series Of editorials,
and he does not retract in the
slightest, but on the contrary,
he reiterates Col. Hoyt,s position
on the liquor question. In our
editorial comment we alluded to
Rev. J. W. Perry because his
name appears as one Of the edi-
tors of the South Carolina Bap-
tist, and because he is known to
our readers. And now comes
Brother Perry with his voice
raised in behalf of Col. Hoyt in
the following card:

Editor The Manning Times:
The annual State meeting Of the Wo-
mans Board of Foreign Missions was
held at Greenville. S. c., in Buncombe
Street Methodist church, June ?! to
July l.
The devotional exercises of the first
evenings services were conducted by
Rev. Harman, pastor in charge. Then
most kindly were the members and
visitors welcomed within the beau
tiful Mountain City and picturesque
homes of its cultured people.
One hundred and twenty-five dele.
gates were in attendance. We missed
very much our recording secretary,
Miss Belle Martin. who has gone to
Europe and was prevented from attend
iH%. Mrs. Peter Stokes acted in heI
stead in q most graceful and acceptable
manner The Twentieth Century Fund
was thoroughly discussed and 4 definite
understanding gained by all.
1t was gratifying to have two mis-
sionaries with US, Miss Gary from
China and Miss Glenn from Brazil. for.
mcr homes in Georgia. They furnished
us with most valuable information con.
corning customs, manners. etc, CT tie
countries named. 1t was a pleasure tC
have Rev. Harmon present At almost
every meeting.
The ladies of the board and visitors
are surely much indebted to the ladies
of Bunconbe Street church for many
lsindnesses shown them and for the eX
tended hospitality.
Greenville can boast of four hand
some colleges which is an indication Of
intelligence.

clipping from THE MANNING TIMES
containing IN editorial, in which the
editor was Sparring with the Columbia
State about Col. Hoyt and his candidacy
for Governor. The giSt Of the article
was that The State, to quote its own
words, was advocating Col. Hoyt's
candidacy for Governor because it
thinks. and it may have the colonel's
word for it, that Col. Hoyt is willing to
have a license system if he cannot get
prohibition And the article goes on
to say that Col. Hoyt has been an advo-
cate of high license in the past, and
