Interesting Story About a Con-

Special to GreenyilIe News.
Columbia, S G, June 10
Quite an interesting story has been
developed by the return to the
penitentiary of John Stuckey,
white convict, from the Scar
borough farm in Sumter county.
Stuckey was convicted in Spar-
tanburg about year ago of kills
ing j G Sewer, who was a clerk
in his store. Owing to the
prominence of the parties the
case was in many respects u SEN
sational one.
Stuckey was found guilty Of
manslaughter aud was sentenced
to twenty years Imprisonment.
According TO the story related
by the penitentiary authori
ties, Mr.. Scarborough is a
man who contracts for conv lets
as laborers on his farm. 1t ap-
pears that he was also q relative
of Stuckey, and when he got his
last batch Of cOnvicts he asked
that Stuckey be included. Not
knowing of any relationship ex
isting between the two men, he
was turned over to Scarborough.
1t was later reported TO the author
tiles that Stuckey was not beng
used as convict, but was really
having pretty good time. 1t is
alleged that he was actually board
ing with Scarborough and paying
for it, and was not IN stripes.
Acting upon these reports the
superintendent and the >boaad of
directors ordered Stuckev to be
brought back to the penitentiary.
He is now III that institution again
in stripes and at work, in the
commissary department.

SATURDAY JUNE %, 1900.

We often hear asked "What
can a prohibition governor do
without prohibition Legisla
ture 2" We answer, he can ap-
point prohibition magistrates and
sec to it that they appoint prohi
bition constahIes. More than
this: He will put new construc-
tion on the dispensary law which
will greatly curtail the sale of
whiSkey as beverage, and he
will enforce it in manner that
will make many people think the
law in itself is prohibition enough.
The law WAS enacted avowedly to
Curtail the sale of into1Icants and
it is claimed for it that when given
a fair tia. it will do it. What
opposition has there been to the
enforcement OF the law by the
present administration ? What
more favorable circumstances
could be imagined for its enforce-
ment than the pr sent adninistra>
ti0n has had Yet has q curtail,
mont of the sale of whiskey been
effected ! Iear.by year the sales
by the dispenSarics continue to in
crease until it really seems the
administration Of the law Is Judged
by the amount of revenue turued
into the eSchequor. If the law is
ever properly construed and en-
forced in South Carollna-and it's
most ardent supporters will never
admit it has had fair trial until
1t has been-it will be under a
prohibition governor. Its friends
have elected four successive gov
ernors and the four successive adj
ministrations have interpreted the
law so as to permit the institution
to become a source of raising all
the revenue possible, hoping in
this way to make it and themselves
more popular, while the majority
or Its supporters are anXiously
hoping to see it curtail the sale
of liquors and make it the "step
towards prohibition" which it
was promised them it should be.
Respected citizens of Carolina,
who are conscientious in believing
the dispensary law the best solu-
tion of the whiskey question. can
you not see that the election of =
prohibition governor at this time,
is your only hope to resuscitate
the law you profess TO think a
good one, but which now lies
dying in the arm. of Its friends
killed by their abuse of it in
straining its Interpretation at
every point to make all the sales
of intoxicants possible? Think
upon this matter.
