Gen. Abner Perrin.

The newspaper announce that the remaint
OF General Abner Perrin have been removed
to Richmond from the battlefield at SPOTS
vanls, where he was killed and buried, forty
years ago. The devotion Of the United
Daughters Of the Confederacy in honorine
the distinguished dead Of the Confederate
army is only eQuslled by the gallant ole
soldiers in the Lost Cause giving OF theil
scant means to forward the noble work.
While these old soldiers deserve, and
ought to receive pension, they are depriv
ing themselves Of needed articles, in ordel
TO help along in perpetuating the memory
of their old officers.
To show the necessity for monuments. with
inscriptions on them, It Is only necessary
70 state that large per cent Of the newspa
pers OF this State printed the name "Aonel
Piokens." Think OF 1t. In less than forty
years after his death bis name is unknown te
even q majority of the editors of the State In
which he lived, and in fighting whose battles
he died.
Our school books may not print al the
names of the gallant Confederate dead, and
the poverty Of the survivors precludes the
possibility Of engraving their names on mar
BILE shafts, but great State might see tha,
at least the names OF the Colonels and the
horses are not 30 soon forgotten.
Let the Legislature give liberal appro-
priation to the United Daughters Of the Con
federacy to help them keep alive the mem
ory OF the dead officers.

The Dfspensary.

Quite number OF the newspapers In this
State are making q camor against the dis.
pensary.
AS we understand. some OF them are pro-
hibitionists in principle, while we believe a
majority Of those who oppose the dispensary
are in favor OF, and hope for, return to the
license system.
Let a few misguided, but honest, real pro-
hibitionists take the lead. and our firm belief
is, that very large per cent OF the saloon
men will follow the prohibitionists. even ne
they even not so long ago. We ebelive that. ls
susceptible OF proof that we'll known license
newspapers supported that ticket when the
issue of prohibition was last raised. And we
believe 1t is equally susceptible OF proof thai
the advocates OF the barroom system voted
the dry ticket.
| If q few good, but misguided temperance
men. take the lead. they can make strong
showing, ifthey can get the whiskey element
to follow them, as We believe they can.
Ifthese good men really desired to discour.
age the liquor traffic In this State, they should
ATTEMPT q practical plan Of enforcing the dis
pensary law; while seeking for such changes
in the law as might reduce the sale OF liquor
/. The dispepsary should be opened later
and closed earlier In the day.
2. The price Of the liquor should be raised
better tits for him.
8. The law as 10 making written applica
tion for liquor should be enforced.
4. The law torblddng the drinking o.
| LIQUOR on the premises should be respected
] If some OF the dlspensaries are not violating
this law they ale said 10 come dangerously
near IL.
s. The Legislature. or the officers, should
provide for the closing Of a dispensary upon
the same rule that 1t is opened. If 1t Is open
ed on majority vote OF any community, II
should be closed when majority vote is IN
| favor Of closing II.
s. The city of Charleston should be made
TO respect the law. II Governor Hayward
neglects to enforce the law, be should be
ask ed to explain why he does not do 80
All temperance men who know anything
about what they are talking, are obliged te
know that the dispensary prohibits the sale
of LIQUOR after sunset and until sunrise. The
veriest fool in all the land knows thai
liquor, under the license system, was sold al
night Any man that has lived in town ol
any size, and was at all acquainted with wha,
was going on, knows that prohibition means
| free liquor.
Another matter. When good and honest
prohibitionists know that the most pro
nounced liquor men become their allies
against the dispensary, they might question
their acts, and see If they are not allowing
liquor men TO make tools of them. When
sincere prohibitionists join hands with the
license people, the com oination is such as tc
excite surprise. A man Is sometimes judged
by the company he joins. Is 1t not strange !
prohibItionist quits the company OF Other
temperance men 10 enter into compact with
the most pronounced liquor men?

Unsatisfactory Schedule.

Unsatisfactory Scneuule.
The change In the schedule Of the Southern
Railway is very unsatisfactory to the people
Of Abbeville.
It seems that there has been some kind of
understanding, or agreement, to divide out
the business OF this part Of the country De-
tween Greenville and Columbia.
The trains are to leave Greenwood daily In
the morning for these cities, and return at
night.
In the shuttle Abbeville is left ont in the
cold. We will get no mails, except local
mails, over that road until four O'Clock IN the
afternoon.
While our people are not especially interest.
ed in either Columbia or Charleston, yet they
like to hear how Charleston Is getting along
raising blind tigers and other things, that
have been known to break loose in Georgia.
ANY attempt to force our people to trade
with either Greenville or Columbia will likely
fail. Abbeville, Hodges Depot. Greenwood,
Ninety-Six, and Darraugh's Turn Out no
doubt have just as good merchants and just
as good goods as are to be found In Greenville
or Columbia.
II our people need liquor they don't have to
60 to the Blind Tiger City. II Greenwood
needs liquor, we presume 1t can be had with.
out going to the coast for 1t.
Not 80 long ago Anderson raised howl be-
cause the name of that city did not appear on
some Of the advertising matter Of that road.
And now trains have been taken of the rails
leading TO this place. If the Southern will re-
store its trains, that road may take the name
Of Abbeville of OF all its advertising dodgers.

Strange Animal.

The Charleston menagerie scems TO have
let some of their animals escape. Our ever
watchful police discovered a strange animal
prowling around In this vicinity last week
and after taking 1t In charge, and examtng 1t
carefully about the eyes, they concluded 1t
was a blind tiger, that had possibly escaped
from Charlerton. Nobody was here from
Charleston to claim 1t, or to identify it. and 1t
was treated as proper subject for seizure and
conflscation. The Council had no use for 1t,
however, and having Its other eye opened so
that the tiger could see It's way clear to pay
$50, the money was forked over-the Council
agreeing to take NO further action in the mat
ter. II the tiger would not appeal TO Judge
Slmonton to bind them over to bis Court.
The blind tiger, in exercising its kindly
offices with Judge Simonton, and after an
operation on its optic nerve, its purse strings
we're tightened up little and 1t went on its
way rejoicing.

"Lack OF Decency is Want Of Sense

s.Lack OF Decency is Want of Sense
Nearly nifty years ago, when this editor wai
q boy. he heard the wife Of an editor give
him an energetic rebuke for some words o1
doubtful modesty which had appeared In hit
paper. Among other things. she said SUBJ
substantially, that O man or q newspaper
might sometimes be excused for repeating
profanity, but that the repetition Of vulgarity
was neverlpermissible-i was an offense to
decency, and 1t was inexousable. That under
great provooation, or in anger. man might
30 far forget himself as to use profane Ian
guage, but that the use OF vulgar language
was q cold. .blooded, deliberate and:wilful Of
tense against decency.
The Press and Banner, repeats In the
above short paragraphs the lecture which q
good woman delivered to her husband half
a century ago. 1t Is as good today as it was
then. Gentlemen should neither use vulgar
language nor laugh when others offer an un-
pardonsble offense to their own sense OF
decency.
