The Ex-Governor of Oregon is an

Letter 70 N. N. Krasnoff.

Dear Sir: The easiest business in the
worlds dry goods: the reason is: your
customers want your stuff as much as
you want to sell it: they come in; you
Show it and sell it. That's the whole
business, except your buying the goods.
Devoe comes next. 1t saves money,
and people like money. They like some
body else's more than their own: they
like to make it more than to save 1t:
they like to keep it perhaps as we'll as
to make it.
Buildings run down fast, without
paint: poor paints the same. Devoe is
the means of stopping that leak, a big
one. All we've got to do, to sell Devoe
is to show thata man saves money oy
using it.

J.J. Cantey Nominated For Governor.
Editor The Manning Times:

Editor The Manning Times:
I notice an article under the head
lines, ''The People vs. Northwestern
Railroad" signed J. ). Cantey, pub
lished in last weeks issue of THE MAN
MING TINES. in which Mr.. Cantev
states that the time has come, if it has
not always been thus, when the people
of Summerton and the surrounding
section, are much in need of some man
with bit of wisdom to represent them
in the State Senate, or house of repre-
sentatives, some man indeed with "a
mite of mental soundness and physical
energy to better himself IN the direc-
tion of doing deed of kindness for the
people Of Clarendon, etc, and so on.
Now, Mr.. Editor, ordinarily would
not have made any reply, but the peo-
pie of Clarendon, land especially in the
community of Summerton) might be
informed that we have a man here in
Summerton, in the person of Mr.. J. j.
CanCey, who is eminently fitted for the
position of State Senator, and ] have
no doubt that he could easily remedy
all of the difficulties, troubles and all
mentS, he says Inc people are laooflnS
under, were he exalted to that posi-
tiou. 1t has been said that MIR. Cantey
has a Gubernatorial bee in his hat, but
I think it would be a mistake if he
should stand for that position, as he
would in all probability be elected, and
feel sure he could not command affairs
as well in that capacity, as he could
in the Senate chamber, as you perhaps
know Mr.. Canuey is man learned IN
the law. And l am surprised thatshe
had not taken up the rights OF the peo-
Die long before this, as there is plenty
of law or the Statute books of South
Carolina for him to have done the
work to finish. 1t is one thing to
enact laws. but another to have them
enforced.
Very respectfully,

there was one small shortage IN

How is it since? There have
been shortages reported in State
offices. and a fearful condition OF
rottenness in the biggest OF the
State offices; county after county
has been shown to have suffered
from theft, mismanagement, and
graft, and the bribery, debauch,
ery, and all the corrupting intlu-
ences possible, has crept into our
election system. The same con-
dition has even crawled into the
courts. Is it not time for the
people to awake to their inter
ests? How long shall this fear
ful condition continue:
We should not have another
1890 revolution, wherein bitter.
ness and strife dethroned reason.
but we should have revolution
on quiet, sane lines, and come to-
gether with a patriotic endeavor
to rid ourselves of a menaclng
disaster. The cry should be
raised, in every county in the
State.

of a decrease in taxation we have
a continual increase; and a
steady continuation Of deficits

A REVOLUTION NEEDED TO SAVE
TEE STATE.

There is scarcely a day that
the morning papers are without
some account of a shortage IN a
County Supervisors or Treasur
er's Office. :. It is appalling to US,
for the reason that such things
were comparatively unknown in
this State until recent years.
There must be something wrong
somewhere. In our opinion our
election methods are responsible
for much of the corruption-men
are not selected for their fitness
for Office, very frequently, they
are put in by political machine
whose manipulators benefit by a
class of men they manipulate in
to Office.
The Democratic party in this
State took charge of the govern
ment in 1877, and from then un-
til 1890, about 13 years, very lit
tie, if any shortages were report
ed, there were charges of ring
rule, but no stealing. The peo-
pie became tired Of the conven-
ton system then in vogue, be-
cause of the methods employed
to put into Office those who. were
really not the choice of the peo-
pie. Then came Tillman in 1886
lat Bennettsville, with a speech
which electrified the State.
Later, in 1890, a convention was
held and Tillman was nominated
to lead the opposition to the
then, controlling powers. On
every stump Tillman charged
corruption, followed by a com
plete and bitter revolution,
such as we hope never to see
again. A great many followed
Tillman, because they were dis
satisfied with the political meth
DDS of those in control at the
time, and because, they had i'm
plicit confidence in his honesty.
The Reform movement swept
! the State, and notwithstanding
the promise Of lower taxes, the
people. after fifteen years of
faithful support, and patient
waiting, have not yet realized
| it, but on the contrary, with q

THE DISPENSARY OUTLOOK.

Florence county is the first to
break the record of elections un-
der the Brice Act, and others
may follow suit. It was not ex-
pected by those who oppose the
dispensary that every county
would vote it out, but when one
after another went overwhelm-
ingly against the system it be-
gins to look as if a tidal wave
had struck the institution and
was going to wipe it away en-
tirely. The votes taken in the
counties where the question was
voted upon have been light,
nothing like a full vote being
cast, not even in Florence where
the dispensary won, was there
anything like a full vote, why
this Indifference we cannot un.
derstand.
We are satisfied that the voting
out of the dispensary in several
of the counties is not necessarily
a victory. for Prohibition, be-
cause, many who voted, and pos
sibly a majority who voted to do
away with the dispensary, were
not prohibitionists, but were dis
gusted with the lawless opera
ton of the system, and the ind
cations of corruption, and they
voted to wipe out the dlspensary
with the hope that the General
Assembly would devise some
plan whereby the people can
enjoy the Democratic principle
of local self-government, and
vote upon themselves a system
to control the sale of liquor best
suited for their environments,
conditions, and where they. elect
to have a dispensary system, for
the county to own and control it,
so that all profits accruing there
from may be put into the county
treasury. either for the schools,
or for the general use. The
coming session of the legislature
has grave situation to face and
consider, and the members Of
that BODY should make a care
full study of the conditions, and
give the people Wholesome legis-
lation on the liquor problem.
That a change of some kind is
necessary is conceded on all
sides, even the politicians who
are fattening from the dispen-
sary will not have the temerity
to claim a retention of the pres
ent baneful conditions, but what
must be done to rid the State of
a continuance of the scandals
that has brought nothing but
shame is for the legislature alone
to solve.
We have long ago reached the
conclusion that as long as poll
tics continue it's hold npon the
management Of the dispensary,
just so long will it remain a
source of corruption, and con-
tinual disturber of the peace.
The question then is, how can
the dispensary be separated from
politics? There is only one an
swer, that is: let the legislature
appoint day for an election
throughout the State, separate
and distinct from any election
for county or State offices, and
at this election, the people to
vote a system Of liquor control
best suited them, whether they
vote prohibition or liquor, which
ever system a majority in a coun-
ty want, let that be the
system for that special county.
The details of the laws op-
Grafton can be fixed by the legis-
lature. and in this we get clear Of
the State institution which has
been srbverted into huge graft
and political machine, so conced-
ed by Senator Tlllman: and many
more ardent supporters Of the
dispensary.
