CHARLEsTON'S BLIND TIGERS.
Judge Benet Hits Them Quite n
Heavy Rap.

Heavy Rap.
In the court of general sessions at
Charleston, last Thursday, Judge w. c.
Benet made a special charge to the
grand jury, when the dispensary cases
were taken up.
He called attention to the open and
fragrant manner in which the dispen-
sary law was being violated in Charles
ton, which he said was not the case in
other cities in the state.
During the course Of his remarks, he
said: "This town Of Charleston Is to-
day as bitterly opposed to the enforce
ment Of the dispensary law as when it
was first passed. and judging from the
newspapers and the current records
there Is no more desire to enforce the
law now than when it was first placed
on the statutes.
The law is openly and unhesitatingly
violated and defied. The whole state
knows it; neighboring states know that
the law is fiagrantly violated every day.
On nearly every street corner, and be-
tween every street corner, are places
where liquor is sold, day and night and
on Sunday. Strangers entering the city
find it entirely convenient to get drinks;
they express their disapproval Of the
way in which the law is so openly de-
fled.
1T is high time for this good old
town to make an honest effort to en-
force the law. There never has been an
attempt in this direction, and until an
honest effort is made, it cannot be said
that the dispensary law in Charleston
is a failure.
This town of Charleston is por-
ton of the state of South Carolina: 1t
has not yet been cut off; it is no inde-
pendent, petty principality. 1t is a
part of the state. governed by the same
laws that govern the whole state, and
the grand jury of Charleston is expect
ed to treat the dispensary cases the
same here as they are treated by the
grand jury in other counties in the
state
During his remarks Judge Benet stat
ed that it was a remarkable fact that
the grand jury Of Charleston had failed
to find true bills in the large number
of dispensary indictments that were
handed to them at every term Of court.
He also gave the police department a
ran for not being Yigiant in trying to
enforce the law"
Following Judge Benet's remarks the
dispensary indictments out Of batch
of 50 cases, were given to the grand
Jury, and mo bill' was returned in
every case.

How the Patient People Have Been
Worked to the Benefit of Poll
tIcians.
I have been very much amused at the
gyrations Of our senators and that
Gaffney fiasco turned out just as I ex-
pected. In this day and age, it isn't
often you hear of man resigning $4,000
a year and an easy Job. Personally. I
am tired, sick and disgusted with poll
ticians and officeseekers, for they are
six, one-half dozen or the other. All
they care for Is to feather their own
nest, and only think about the dear
