The passage OF the anti canteen law
III Congress was undoubt eddy a victory
OF principle over practicability. Not
even the chief promoters Of the cause
can conscientiously lay claim to the
argument that the abolition of the
canteen will decrease the amount of
drunkenness amongst the soldiers.
In reality the natural efft ct is more as
1t is related by the Chicago Inter-
Ocean In the following words: "If
the es Unable ladies' and gentlemen
who induced Congress to abolish the
army canteen could have visited High
wood and Fort Sheridan Thursday
night, their ideas on the subject of
temperance reform would have been
considerably altered, At Highwood
they would have found all the old and
several new saloons filled with SOL
diers drinking and gambling in the
company of vile characters Of both
sexes. Later in the night they would
have found in the Fort Sheridan bar
racks more drunken sleepers and more
men absent without leave than have
been recorded for years. Thursday
was the Arst pay day at Fort Sheridan
since the canteen was abolished. For
some years the difference between pay
day and other days has not been Wis
ible to the ordinary visitor. Soldiers
who liked beer were able to get 1t In
reasonable quantities at the canteen
at any time, and few celebrated pay
day with a debauch. On Thursday,
however, such men flocked to the
Highwood saloons and many OF them
spent their months pay in a night.
Disorder was general and fights were
frequent. Only those who prey upon
the vices of their fellow men profit by
the abolition of the canteen. Yet
thousands of we'll meaning women and
men really think that they have &C
compli,hed "a great reform when
they induced Congress TO suppress the
canteen.''

Although the long drawn out water
fight in this city has probably become
an issue of the past, the question as
to the wisest course for the future is
by no means settled and it will be
many years before the public water
system can be so manipulated as
to be OF any very evident
benefit to the city treasury.
Mary different ideas are advanced In
regard to the subject and several
wise suggestions have c'me from va
rious sources. 1t is a matter Of vital
Importance to every taxpayer and the
operation of aublic systems in other
cities cannot help but be of interest
here. In a recent interview Alder
man Rhodes of Minneapolis is report
ed to have said relative to the water
works of his city: "Our city water
works system is our particular pride.
The plant has been owned and operat-
Ell by the city ever since it was estab-
l.shed. Our water costs us about 81
year for private houses. The meter
system is used, but you cap get all the
water you want within the 81 limit.
That is the minimum. Each man has
to pay that for the use Of the meter.
A great many families get along on
S3 SO or 1915 worth Of water. The
objection Offered by so many men who
argue against municipal ownership
that the city plants are apt to become
gigantic political machines does moi
hold I'd in Minneapol S. Our plan,
EMPLOYS about $50 men. When The
administration changes every two
wears, not more than twelve to fifteer
employees of the water works plant arr
changed. Besides furnishing water al
this unusually low rate, the Minneap
lis city water plant is paying into th'
city heavy dividends every year."

A Devoted Mother.

Although looked upon as vermin and
destroyed accordingly, the weasel Is
a good mother and probably treats her
young ones more kindly than many
Of her human enemies treat theirs. a
weasel, carrying something In her
mouth, was once seen to enter hole in
a tree. The observer, applying lighted
straw, soon smoked her out. She then
darted toward q stone wall, near which
she was attacked by terrier, which
speedily slew her. She fell an easier
victim because Of the burden she bore
in her teeth. Anxious to see what this
was, the onlooker went forward and
found it was q baby weasel. The moth
er's nest in field close by had been
plowed up, and she had been searching
for another home. AS her youngster
could not run she carried it in her
mouth rather than leave it to perish.

Swan the water under the earth" is
the world famous man faced crab Of
Japan. Its body is hardly an inch in
length, yet the head is fitted with a
face which is the perfect counterpart
Of that OF Chinese cody, a 7eritable
missing link, with eyes, nose and
mouth all clearly defined. This curl
Gus and uncanny creature, besides the
great likeness it bears to human be-
ing in the matter Of facial features. is
provided with two legs which seem to
grow from the top Of its head and hang
down over the sides Of its face. Be-
sides these legs, two "feelers," each
about an inch in length, grow from the
"chin" Of the animal, looking for all the
world like q colonePs forked beard.
These man faced crabs fairly swarm
in the inland seas Of Japan.

Gen. Joe Wheeler.
HE BELIEVES IN M'LAURIN's DEMOC
RACY.

Gen. Joe Wheeler who is on
the retired list of the y. S. army
with the rank Of Brigadier Gen.
eral is managing a law case in
the city Of Washington. 1t is
thought that he will practice law
regularly from this time On.
Gen. Joe Wheeler is a remark,
able man. He did some of the
hardest fighting in the war be-
tween the States and without
the influence of distinguished
men he was a Lieutenant Gen.
eral at the early age Of twenty
eight years. During the war he
had sixteen horses killed under
him in battle and many more
wounded. Thirty two of his
regular and acting staff officers
we're killed or wounded by bis
side. He was himself slightly
wounded three times and once
painfully.
Gen. Wheeler is a scholar anG
during the war published a work
styled "Cavalry Tactics" which
was regarded by military men as
high authority.
Gen. Wheeler made an infuen.
tial member of Congress and in
fact has been an energetic mar
of business all his life.
After he reached the age OF
sixty years Gen. Wheeler fought
in Cuba and afterwards had
command in the Philippine IS
lands and did his duty every
where.
1t seems impossible for him tc
be idle. He always finds some
work to do.-Abbeville Medium.

LAWYERS HUNGRY.

In 1890 Benjamin R. Tillman
made a great ado about the law
yers having control of State pol
itics, 1t is time for Ben to start a
movement in this direction again.
The legislature is now composed
of a large number of lawyers,
and the number who have politi-
cal aspirations seems to be in
creasing every year. 1t is likely
that in the campaign next year
lawyers will constitute the larg-
est number of candidates for all
offices. For the y. S. Senate,
there is Mr.. Johnston, Mr..
Hemphill, and Mr.. Henderson,
while several other lawyers are
spoken of as possible candidates.
The following lawyers are spok-
ZEN of as candidates for governor:
M. F. Ansel, Jas. H. Tillman,
Jno. G. Sheppard, and possibly
others. For congress in this
district a number of lawyers will
be candidates: Mr.. Thorpe, of
Aiken; j. W. Thurmond: now
solicitor; G.. Duncan Bellinger,
now attorney general; and J. O..
Patterson: Then, there will, of
course, be a number of legal
lights who will aspire to legisla-
tive honors. In view of the
great number of candidates for
public Office from the ranks Of
the legal fraternity, it might be
proper to inquire if lawyers con-
stitute a majority of the popula-
ton of South Carolina.-Bam-
