The Dixie Liquor Case.

In our issue of Thursday, May
9, an article appeared under the
caption. Hired Boys to Sell 1t, "
and which read as follows:
Mike and Jim Payne, who run
drug store at Dixie, were arrest
ed few days ago for introducing
and selling liquor. They had their
examining trial before Commits
siouer Gullett and were bound
over to await the action of the
grand jury.
The evidence showed that the
defendants hired boys to dispose
of the unlawfdl fluid, for which
they were to receive half Of the
profits.
This little story was told the
ARDNoRElTE reporter by Deputy
Stevens, who said he made the ar.
rest
Now comes J. w. Payne, one OF
the aforesaid parties, and says:
Mike and James Payne do not
run drug store at Dixie or else
where, neither are they partners in
any business whatever.
The charge upon which they
were recently arrested was intro
dueing" ore gallon Of whisky.
The witnesses for the prosecu
ton testified in substance that EC
johnson had sold whisky to many
parties about Dixie, duplicating
Mike Payne in two particulars.
lst. That he had loaned Ed
johnson money with which tC
handle the fluid with the under.
standing that he was to have par
of the profits.
%. That Mike Payne furnished
alcohol and whisky to Ed johnson
for the purpose of carrying on hi
unlawful traffic,
There was no evidence agains
James Payne, so the court ordered
his release, holding Mike Payn
and Ed johnson under bonds, t,

Speaking of the suggestion that q
Southerner should be nominated on
the Democratic national ticket in
1904, the Mobile (Ala.) Register says {:
"What We want is good sandidate, q
winner, and we do not care where he
comes from provided he is winner.
We have no prejudice against q north
ern man. Indeed, we do not think
sectionalism should be considered.
We want to win because we deserve to
win, and not ~ posing Southern
man as Southern candidate" The
Democratic party is, by tradition, his
tory and instinct, absolutely non-sec
tional. It's great successes have been
won when it's platforms were so fram-
ed as to be applicable to all sections,
or rather to no particular section. It's
greatest reverscs have occurred when
Gas in 1860 and in 1866 sectionalism
was rampant in the national conven-
tion. The Mobile Register has the
right idea. We want the best candi-
dates, no matter where they come
from, and the most sensible platforms
and then let the Republicans look
out for trouble.

Not a Political Deal.

COLUMBIA, Aug. 28.-The governor
to-day gave out IN interview in which
he denied most emphatically that he
is now or has ever been in any politi-
cal deal Or trade and that any intima-
tion that he has made trade in the
Neal matter is absolutely untrue. He
says he pardoned Neal on account of
his wife and family much more tn an
on Meals account. Neal has always
been opposed to him and in his race
for lieutenant governor opposed and
worked against him and he is, he
thinks, too much of judge of people
to think that Neal will ever again
WELD the influence that he once did in
politics. The governor says he is re-
sponsible to the general assembly and
the people for his pardons, all of which
are conscientionsly made and he invites
honest criticism of his pardon record
and says it will be found to be no
larger than that of other governors.
He says he has never acted for pOliiti-
cal effect and does not expect to ever
do 80.

for the pardon. Under the circum
stances the Governor no doubt did
the best thing that could be done.
In this section, however, there is con
siderable difference Of opinion in re-
gard to the matter, some believing
that as he has been prosecuted aud
convicted in open Court the ends of
justice have been met. while others
think he should have served his full
sentence. Attorney-G General Bellin-
ger has issued strong protest against
the action of the Governor, his chief
grounds Of complaint being that the
Governor did not refer the matter to
him, and that he accepted misstate-
mcnts without trying to get light.
But the subject has now come /, an
end and the matter should be d-cnpcd.
Neal is free man, but he can never
again be honorcd with position of
public trust.

Some interesting statistics have re-
Gently been given out showing the
wonderful degree Of efficiency which
has been attained by the United States
postal system. During the past fiscal
year not less than 5000, 900, 900 pieces
Of postal matter were handled by the
government. Yet the number Of
complaints fled in Washington, D..
c., on account of tho non-receipt Of
letters was comparatively small. So
far as the records show only 52,3O6
letters and 47,949 packages failed to
be delivered. Considering the tre-
mendous bulk Of the business carried
on in the postal service, there is very
little interference with the mails and
the risk is reduced to almost nothing.
So thorough is the system that when
ever letters are net delivered it is
either because of illegible penmanship
on the part of the writer or else on
account Of train robberies and acci-
dents.

Within the past few weeks the
press has teemed with accounts OF
lynchings. They are not confined to
any one section Of the country, though
the greater number have occurred in
the South. The usual crime has caus
ed the majority Of these lynchings,
and yet there have been some cases of
lynching for other crimes. This leads
one into much thought on the subject.
The crime for which lynching is a
specific remedy is on the increase, and
despite the efforts 20 enforce the law
lynchings are on the increase. Just
what is to be done to remedy this
state of affairs cannot be said. It is
problem that will tax the wisdom of
the people for years to come.

HUNTSVILLE, ALA, Aug. 22.--Poor
yesterday and rich today is tic ilnppy
condition of Frank Jacks and family,
who live about seven miles east Of New
Market, Il small town on the Nashville,
Chattanooga and st. Louis railroad.
1t is reliably reported that Mr.. Jacks
found Il pot Of gold buried near spring
OH Mountain Fork river. The value of
the pot of gold is estimated mt between
500, 900 and S8O.O00.
Mr.. Jacks has little to say when quer-
led by members of the press or his
friends; in fact, he will not own up to
anything further than that he found
tho pot.
Reliable citizens who 1.-Two near Mr..
Jacks state that he is an entirely
changed man in every way, presuma-
bly, being the result OF his rich and un-
expected find, which was the result of
digging around the spring.
When his pick first struck the pot
little attention was paid to it, but fur
ther digging disclosed the bright mug
gets.
IL lS IcpOrtcu tn0C MT JACKS mas de-
posted the money in Tennessee bank,
but this cannot be verified; however, it
is fact that he has made large cash
payments on valuable tracts of land
near New Market in the past few days.
Citizens who have lived in the Wells
precinct for the past sixty-One years
say no one he's lived there who was able
to have left the amount MIR. Jacks is
reported to havo found, and tho theory
is that the gold must have been hidden
there during the time Of some war and
whoever it belonged to never returned
to get his fortune.

There were to be no more labor
troubles, was the song of the trust
promoters not long ago, but the steel
strike has dispelled that bright vision.
Their reasoning was plausible, but
specious. The very vastness Of the
trusts would prevent the labor unions
from fighting them. And. of course,
these huge corporations were to be
managed SO wisely that strikes would
be out Of the question; they would
both work in unison for the large
profits and big wages. It does not
seem to work that way, and of course
the trusts say the obstinate working
man is to blame.

We notice from our exchanges that
several towns are diligently enforcing
the vagrant law. This is a good idea
and is worthy Of emulation by many
other towns in the State. We think a
few doses of it administered hot in
Anderson would be helpful, and have
tendency to rid the town of some of
the loafing elements. Make them
show their hand, get to work or skip
the gutter. We have no room in this
city for loafers and idlers.

NOME ) INDECENT
To Be SUCCORED
Revenue Cutters Will
Bring Back the
Stranded.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

SEATTLE, Oct N.-According to a re-
mark by a captain of one of the United
States revenue cutters now at Nome, the
Government VIII bring to Seattle late this
autumn those who actually stranded
in Nome.
Last year when the Government noti-
fed the citizens of Nome of it's charitable
intentions about 200 persons who had the
means and would otherwise have come
down on passenger steamers played the
part of hypocriteS and allowed themselves
to be taken care of by the Government
Several OF these fraudulent destitute" "
1t was found afterward, brought down
pokes of from $500 to $4,000 each. To avoid
a repetition of these frauds it has been
made to appear in Nome that no one
would be brought out by the Government
this year. AS a consequence all those
except the really deserving poor will
have come out by the time it is known
that Uncle Sam is to take hand.
The method of this diplomacy was
somewhat novel 1t is not generally
known that a revenue cutter can accom-
modate large numbers of passengers.
This, however, is true. The cutters Bear
Thetis and McCulloch have remained at
Nome to the very close Of the season, os-
tensibly to protect the merchant marine.
This was only partly the case, as the cut
ters are to bring down the INDECENT gold
seekers.

ROOSEVELT APPOINTS
A GOLD DEMOCRAT
George E. Rooster Chosen Collector Of
Internal Revenue for South

WASHINGTON, Oct. 21.-The President
to-day appointed George E. KOester Col
lector of Internal Revenue for South
Carolina. With the appointment the fol-
lowing statement was issued:
''Mr. Koester is prominent gold Dem
ocrat and has been recommended for the
position by a large number of influential
business men and representative citizens,
not only of South Carolina, but of North
Carolina and elsewhere"
The appointment of Koester terminates
controversy which devolved upon Roose-
velt with his accession to the Presidency.
1t was in connection with this appoint
ment and that of former Governor Jones
to a Federal Judgeship in Alabama that
the President announced that his policy
would be to name suitable Republicans if
they could be found and il not to appoint
Mr.. Blalock, who has been long identi-
fed with the Republican party in South
Carolina, at first was understood to be
slated for this position. but the President
later decided not to appoint him. Sub
sequently Senator McLaurin, whom the
President consulted about the matter,
suggested the name of Mr.. Koester.

part responded in the same spirit to the
appeal of the United States, and alto
gether the two governments, Turkey and
Bulgaria, probably have been put to de-
gree of expense equal to the amount of
tors in the military operations they have
already directed in her interests.
CONSTANTINOPLE, Oct. N.-The Off
cials of the United States Legation are
still without news from the missionaries
with the abductors of Miss Ellen M.
Stone and her companion, Madame H. S..
Tsilka. 1t is regarded as probable that
. the missionaries will use the nearest tele-
graph only when the terms of the ransom
are settled, directing where the cash shall
be sent.
LONDON, Oct. 21-The idea that the
capture of Miss Stone originated with the
Macedonian committee is corroborated,
according to the Vienna correspondent Of
the Daily Mail, by the fact that numer-
Gus Macedonians in Sofia have offered to
mediate with the brigands.
The rumor emanating from a Bulgarian
source that Miss Stone is hidden in the
villayet of Salonika is regarded as very
improbable, says the Sofia correspondent
of the Telegraph. Charles H. Dickinson
United States Consul General at Con-
stantinople, is still firmly convinced of the
completely of the Macedonian committee
In missionary circles the view is favored
that when the ransom is paid the brig
ands will also be granted amnesty, and
that all records Of agreement with the
band shall be Cancelled.

Two Youthful Couples

Special Dispatch to The Call.

PRESCOTT. Wash. Oct. 21.-Because
the parents of Myrtle Marr and Alta
Reavis, II and 16 years old, respectively,
would not let them marry they startled
Prescott last night with double elope-
ment. Their partners were Timothy Shea
and Clifford Reavis. whose ages are 20
and 10 years. A hard race is on between
the youthful lovers and the officers in
every town between here and Seattle,
with the chances apparently in favor of
the officers.
Shea and Reavis met the girls early last
evening. At o'clock they were at the
Oregon depot, but four hours later sud-
denly took a carriage for Riverside. a
small station seven miles west, on the
Washington and Columbia River Rail-
road. Here they boarded a train and went
to Eureka Junction. where Shea pur-
chased four tickets for Seattle
All the persons concerned are prOmi-

here. Miss Marr's people live at the edge
of town, and the Reavises are close
neighbors. Shea is a strapping Irishman,
curly and handsome. Both the girls are
than a child.
William Reavis objected to Clifford
ReaV1S because he was a second cousin
of the girl and was too young to know
what marriage meant Clifford worked
on the farm 70" William Reavis, who had
reared him. Clifford and Myrtle were
brought UP together like brother and sis
ter. Strenuous efforts are being made to
catch the elopers.
