DR.. cRoMER's LAST SAY.

Had No Intention of Misrepresentins
the Law. In the Case. Z
The following Is Dr. Cromers re-
ply to the contribution Of Senator Till
man published elsewhere In this issue:
Hon. B. r. Tillman. '" -
Dear Sir: Your letter published this
morning calls for. an explanation ana
a disclaimer.
1t greatly surprised me that anything
I'm my last letter seems to warrant the
inference that am trying to mislead
the people took Ii for granted that
all who have intelligence enough 10
follow the discussion knew ALREADY
that the supreme court had upheld the
constitutionality Of the dispensary
law. Including the profit feature. . !
said that the supreme court and the
prohibitionists are together In the pro-
position that "liquor In Its nature Is
dangerous 10 the morals, good order.
health and safety Of the people, and
that from that point Of view the state
may take control of the traffic to po-
lice 1t, but not to profit by It." That
language means, IL 1t means anything
that the state may take control OF the
traffic for the purpose OF controlilng
II but not for the purpose OF prohting
by II. Under the decision Of the SUI
preme court control must be the main
object; trade and profit must be mere
ly Incidental was combating the
position Of those advocates Of the dis
pensary who urge the profit feature
"as a justifying fact" and who are
virtually teaching the people thar we
should sunnort the system as q proht-
able revenue measure. The argument
stated In logical form Is as follows:
II liquor In its nature Is dangerous
to the morals, good order. health and
safety of the people, 1t is wrong for
the state to take control Of the trafnc
to profit by II. But the supreme court
holds that liquor in its nature Is dam
gerous to the morals, good order.
health and safety of the people, there
fore, II Is wrong for the state to take
control OF the traffic to profit by IL.
I was arguing the question on the
ground OF public morals, but nothing
was farther from my intention than to
conceal or misrepresent the law OF the
question.
Your comments on the extract from
the Charlotte Observer are not In re.
ply to anything that have said; but
since you have brought 1t: into this
correspondence, I am moved by my
high respect and esteem for the MEM
bers of the supreme court to say that
I am not In sympathy with the spirit
Of that extract

REAL ESTATE INQUIRY.

The inquiry for real estate is
stronger than 1t has ever been in the
history of the county, especially
since the war; and the activity is
greater.
People in a position to know what
Is going on along this line are i'm
pressed with the number Of would-be
investors who seem to be hunting
something nice in dirt.
The demand for agricultural lands
Is rather more pronounced than for
town lots; but either kind Of prop
erty is more readily salable at this
time than 1t has ever been.
There have been numerous trans
fers in different parts Of the county
of late at prices that were especially
satisfactory to the sellers. and which
must necessarily have had the ap-
proval of the buyers.
The number Of farm mortgages on
record at the clerks office is smaller
than 1t has been for many years and
few new mortgages are being re-
corded except to secure purchase
money. There Is no good reason to
look for a great many foreclosures
this year. because in the case of
most maturing paper, where the
holder is unwilling to renew there is
generally somebody to take his place,
AS matters now stand the proba-
bIlity is that the majority Of the sales
to be made by the clerk this fall
and next spring will be for the pur-
pose of partition.

There was just one man who was
ever able to practice municipal own
ership honestly" he said, land that
was the late Golden Rule Mayor
Jones Of Toledo. Jones asserted that
there was graft and Doodle in muni-
cipal ownership, the same as there
was in the political arena. Then
turning to Mayor Dunno, he added:
You know IL, too"
The delegates could stand 1t no
Longer and left the convention hall.

Cotton picking is daily becoming
more general; but has not yet fairly
opened.
II is getting time to make arrange
ments to put in wheat crop. In view
of the general failure this year the
next crop ought to be good.
A gentleman who was in Lancaster
county a few days ago informs the re-
porter that strong feeling has been
aroused because Of the suit against
the county on account Of the Morrison
lynching. The probability Is that the
first move of the plaintiffs attorneys
will be for a change Of venue.
There is a continued gratifying In
crease In the business Of the local
banks and new customers are an
every day business. 1t Is fact, how
ever that not a few owners Of cash
money still insist on the old time Gus
tom of carrying 1t to their homes and
hiding 1t as best they may, Instead OF
leaving II safe subject to check OF
bearing per cent interest on certih-
cate of deposit. Both the local banks
are as safe as any similar institutions
in the country.

WHEN we used to intimate corrup-
ton in the dispensary, some Of our
contemporaries would insist that we
prove It,. We venture now that the
greatest wonder with most Of the peo-
pie in the state is not that evidence
of so much corruption has developed; !;
but that it ever came out. We venture
also that but few people in South Car
olina believe that even the half has
been told.

his hand pretty severely burned by

Handy, living on Wilkinson street,
shot himself in the hand with a

wadding going through the hand
and lodging just under the skin on

no serious injury will follow.

All that could be done was to

GUARD
FIGHT ON
STREET

Saturday afternoon, about $3.50 an
exciting fight occurred on the corner
Of Commercial and State streets. The
principals in the affair were two night
watches out at the penitentiary by the
names OF John Griffin and John Man
lev. 1t seems that Manley was dis
charged from the penitentiary satur-
day morning. Griffin claimed that he
had discovered him asleep on post, and
reported the fact to the superintendent,
who at once relieved him from duty.
The result Of this produced ill-feeling
between the two men, so that when
they met on the street Saturday after
noon both were ready to wreak their
hatred out on one another at the slight
est provoeation. Manley, when he
caught sight Of Griffin, walked up to
him concerning the case. Griffin sud
denly raised a heavy cane he was car
rying and struck Manley several times
across the face, cutting it severely and
blacking the left eye. Manley was not
idle by any means during this time, but
pitched into his assailant so fercely
that he had almost succeeded in dis
arming him before bystanders could in
terfere and stop the fraeas. As it was
Griffin received few blows which dam
aged his physiognomy TO a slight ex-
tent. Officer Cornelius appeared on the
spot at this stage of the game and took
the men in charge. They accompanied
him to the police court, where Griffin
was charged with assault. He pleaded
guilty to the charge, and Judge MOores
let him off easy with a fine of $40. Man
ley was released, as it was shown that
he had only been defending himself.

OF INDIAN
DECISION

Justice Brewers decision holding 1t
lawful TO sell liquor to Indians who
have land allotted 10 them in severalty
will create havoc in those counties
throughout the West where large num-
Der Of Indians are residing on allotted
lands.
The decision practically does away
with federal prosecutions in regard TO
the sale Of liquor to the Indians, and
consequently throwing the burden Of
preventing this traffic on the state au-
thorities. 1t win have the further ef-
feet Of making it necessary for the
state authorities to enforce law and or
der upon and in the vicinity of the
reservations. Heretofore Indians have
been prosecuted upon the several res
ervations for murder, manslaughter,
larceny and criminal assault upon the
theory that they were wards Of the
government. Hereafter these and kim
dred Offenses viii be subject to state
prosecution, and the state courts will
have explicit jurisdiction. In counties
where there is large Indian popula-
tion the burden of such prosecutions
will be a heavy burden upon the tax
payers, and in case some provision is
not made to share this burden it VIII
virtually bankrupt such counties.

Beeswax Is Parafne.

A representative Of the Portland Coal
& Development Company, which owns
about 5000 acres of land around Tilla,
nook, where the beeswax ship is sup
posed to have come ashore, says that
his opinion is that the story of this ship
is a myth, and that the so-called bees
wax found in that neighborhood is
nothing else than parafne left from oil
seepage. In support of this theory, he
claims that over 600 tons of the stuff
has already been sold for beeswax, and
that ships in those days never carried
any such cargoes. 1t is also claimed
that oil still seeps from the ground
along the coast.
