ed by experience not to try to take
any liberties with him, all Of the law
yers of the state have the highest re-
gard for Judge Watts. They know
that he is broad and liberal; that his
predominating characteristic is an
unshakable love of justice, and that
he will not tolerate any quibbling.
The state Of South Carolina Is to be
congratulated in having such a man
in such a position, and we feel sure
that there are hundreds Of people al
over York county who will join us In
the hope that this just man will be
spared to adorn the bench of the state
for many years to come.

THE attorney general Of the United
States has given an opinion to the ef-
feet that newspapers that advertise
guessing contests in connection with
business schemes are violating the an
ti-lottery laws and should be denied
the use Of the mails. He also says
that circulars covering such schemes
are unavailable. Legitimate businesses
having such schemes under way are
to have a reasonab BILE time in which to
close them up; but no new schemes OF
the kind must be started.

NOTE AND COMMENT.

cause Christmas comes on Sunday this
year. They will have Monday all right
however, r..

er who can possibly arrange to do so
will put in few acres.

ed for it's verdict to the Confederate

A correspondent desires THE EN-
oU1RER to call attention to the fact
that the law requires license OF $2b
to be paid to the county treasurer be-
fore non-residents Of South Carolina
may shoot partridges or other game In
this state.
Mr.. w. r. Carroll Of Yorkville hand
ed in an advertisement yesterday OF
mule that had gone estray ard Mr.. j.
]. Clinton Of r. F. D. No. 3, Yorkville,
handed in another this morning OF an
estray mule taken up. The two de-
scriptions seemed to tally, so both ad-
vertisements were left out. However
we beg leave to present the compli-
ments of THE ENQUIRER to the two
gentlemen and suggest that they get
together.
| The Cherokee county people, accord
ing to the papers at Gaffney, are pre-
pairing to take vigorous measures
to prosecute any violators Of the law
in regard to selling whisky. One prop
osition has been made that the coun-
ty commissioners offer standing re-
ward of s25 for information that will
convict any violator Of the law, and
the proposition has been received with
considerable enthusiasm. The county
commissioners will probably consider
| 1t.
Confederate veterans and others in
terested in the pension list can help
matters very much by dropping Mr..
Joseph F. Wallace postal cards giving
him information Of deaths that have
occurred among pensioners since Feb
ruary. Mr.. Wallace knows Of num-
ber Of pensioners who have died; but
his list Is not complete. If people
will take the trouble Of advising him
of all the deaths that have come
within their knowledge, his work will
be lighter.
"There is just lots of work to be
done and it is we'll nigh impossible to
get anybody to do it." was the COM
plant of a large farmer Of the Sharon
neighborhood to the reporter yester-
day. "All the negroes have a little
money" he continued, land they don't
seem to know anything better to do
with 1t than to buy buggies and ride
about over the country. They don't
have to work, and won't work until
they have to. 1t seems to me that II
there Is ever to be time for the re-
peal of the lien law that time has ar
rived"
There were two important errors In
the interesting interview that was pub
lished in THE ENQUIRER or last Frfs
day on the subject Of typhoid fever
and malaria. The physician on whose
conversation the interview was based,
has kindly called our attention to
them. We made the physician say
that "all mosquitoes are capable Of
transmitting malaria" whereas he
said that the disease Is transmitted
only by female mosquitoes Of certain
species. Also the physician was made

FRIDAY, DECEMBER 2, 1904.

IT is sincerely hoped that the legis-
lature will, at its next session, agree
upon some statute to regulate the
marriage question, at least to the ex-
tent Of requiring registration If not
license. The sensible thing Is to re-
quire both license and registration. 1t
would be no hardship on anybody; but
on the other hand would eventually
prove decided benefit to all concern
ed. There is no sense or reason in the
present situation.

SEVERAL exchanges have published a
story from Columbia to the effect that
Governor Hayward would pardon Hoyt
Hayes except for a fear that the man
would be lynched should he return to
his old home. Al least one paper that
published the story discredited the
same in its editorial columns, and we
do not think that many people Of ordi-
nary discretion or intelligence, will be
disposed to accept it seriously. Gov
ernor Hayward may make mistakes as
he no doubt does, but he could hardly
be so absurd as this. If he thinks
Hoyt Hayes should be pardoned he
could hardly withhold that pardon for
such a reason. We are inclined to the
opinion that the papers which pub
lished the story have been imposed up
on by some amateur who is unable to
distinguish between concrete facts, and
the vagaries Of an indifferently devel-
oped think box. This is our suspicion
of course, and If our suspicion is well
founded it would seem that the COVER
nor ought to be entitled to some pro-
lection from such Misrepresentation
If he said what has been imputed to
him he is very silly. and If he did not
say it, the correspondent has done him
a serious injustice.

TILE South Carolina public would no
doubt be intensely interested in leg
islative investigation Of the Richfand
distillery. This is a private corpora
ton; but still 1t Is very closely allied
to the state dispensary. Otherwise it
would not be able to get such tremend-
Gus quantities Of its raw spirits off on
the people Of the state at such long
prices. It Is rumored that the stock is
owned by many prominent people, and
that some of these people came into
possession Of 1t at nominal figures. 1t
is also said that the distillery compa-
ny is doing such g. prosperous business
as to enable it to pay dividends every
Saturday morning. This Is no doubt
an exaggeration, but we believe 1t has
a foundation in fact. Anyhow we
would like to see good honest inves-
tigation. OF course we don't want any
whitewashing business, and we do not
believe the people will be satisfied
unless they can feel assured that the
members of the investigating commit
tee are true and tried men who are op-
posed to the liquor business on princi-
pie. An investigation Of the owner
ship Of the bottle works, along with
the distillery would also be Of interest.

Why deny the possibility of their fu- ture? The pessimists. who are perhaps not only pOWerless. but idle, shrug their shoulders and smile. Let me tell them a simple story. In 1923 the commander of Fort Dearborn. a pessimist of that time, wrote to the secretary of war of the United States as follows:
 ''I have the honor to inform you that this post should be abandoned, because the country surrounding 1t is such that it is impossible for a population to live here sufficient to justify the expense of keeping a fort at this place.
 In 1893, seventy years later, the place where that fort stood had a population of a million and a half. and twenty seven million people visited her exposi- ton. I refer. of course, to Chicago.
 It is neither resources nor a future which France lacks if she does not prove untrue to herself. Books such as these I have presented to the public are useful because they are excitants to energy, and I should like to see them in the hands not only of business men, who would be able to draw inforIna- tion from them, but also of professors, to give instruction from them, 4 very valuable point concerning this partic- ular book Is that it is printed in alter nate columns in French and English. This will assist the student. t.-Published in the Journal de St. Petersburg, an Influential Russian Paper.

rrTr MAIn AND nm MIJMMY.


 The opening attraction of the year. in New York city, 'The Maid and the Mummy" which fired the first gun Nof the present season on July 25i is playing to the capacity of that playhouse at ev- cry performance, something very unus- ual at this time of the year. and were lit not for prior contracts there is but little doubt that the entertainment would remain at the New York theater for many months to come. Tn the sec ond place, while there are few novelties scheduled for immediate production, the revivals which go on in the near future adready have many advance orders for seats. The success. of .'The Maid and the Mummy" and the advance inquiry for the revivals make a good augury for the new thetrical year, especially in New York. The Maid and the Mum ny' is one of the early attractions for Bunnells New Haven theater.

DEFINITE STATEMENT WANTED.
/ Further Conference Regarding Freight
Deliveries to Be Held Monday.

With the view Of having on record state
ments relative to the steam railroad freight
service made definite by dates, a further
conference is to be held next Monday after
noon by the Board Of Trade committees on
transportation and commercial interests
and representatives of the railroads.
An account of present conditions as af-
fecting them was given yesterday after
noon as outlined in The Star, by Thomas
W. Smith, Edward Graves, w. ]. Zeh The.
odore J. Mayer, John III. Magruder, Frank
p May Robert B. Tenny and others. IL
was stated by the representatives of the
railroads that they wanted to know the
dates when the alleged delays occurred be-
fore they could explain the causes. 1t was
said that while the terminal improvements
were in progress the space for handling
cars would be more limited than would
eventually be the case.
1t is believed the interchange of views
between the freight carriers and merchants
will result in a clearer understanding of
the circumstances on both sides, and will
lead to an improvement in the service.
AS stated in the account In The Star of
the conference yesterday, complaint was
made that cars had been received in such
numbers that 1t was impossible to unload
them in time to escape the railroad charge
of 81 a day on each car that remained I'M
touched 1t was thought this oversupply
was quite as much of a grievance as the
undersupply.
