The blind tigers Of Charleston go
:merrily ahead with their violations Of
The law in an open and contemptuous
disregard Of the police authority and
against the State and none of them are
ever punished except by the payment
of a nominal fine once in awhile. This
IS a remarkably potent argument for
The abolition Of the dispensary.
The notoriety that the part he has
taken in the dispensary investigation
gained him has been too much for
Mr.. J. Fraser Lyon and he has jumped
at what he thinks is an opportunity
20 be elected attorney general. He
mas undoubtedly done a good work
in the investigation of the dispensary
but the work is not finished and by
becoming a candidate for Office he has
turned his back on the work he had
undertaken and put an end to his use
fulness in that line.
Col. W. W. Lumpkin, Of Columbia,
who says he is running against Sen
ator Tillman. will have the senatorial
campaign all to himself for few
days as Senator Tillman is detained
in Washington, the Senate being still
in session. Col Lumpkin should make
the most Of this opportunity and get
all the fun out of it possible. II he
does not have some fun the campaign
sill be 81 failure so far as he is con-
cerned for even he cannot entertain
the shadow of hope of election.

men. Those who De1elVe t1ldl ztiie oto
pensary law, honestly administered, is
the best and most practical solution OF
the LIQUOR evil should vote for Rich
ard I Manning, while those who pre-
fer straight prohibition, without any
local option, blind tiger or high IL
cense should cast their ballot for joe
E. Bunsor. It is seldom that one
county offers two gubernatorial can
didates who each stand so high in
the estimation of their home people.
Beth Manning and Brunson are men
who have made a success Of their
business affairs. both possess unim-
peachable characters and both are
men who merit the confidence that is
reposed in them.
The settlement of the dispensary
question will est with the legislature
to be elected this summer after al,
ard it is more important that a man
of force and character be elected tim
man who claims to hold particular
views on any special question.
The Spartanburg Journal may be
correct in its diagnosis Of public SEN
timent respecting the dispensary in
vestigation. The people may be tired
of revelation and want something new.
They may be satisfied that there has
been sufficient evidence produced to
make out case of grating against
the management Of the dispensary,
and are now waiting for some move
to be made to punish the grafters.
Unless the result Of the long drawn
out investigation is turned to practl-
cal account it will have been use
less and fruitless proceeding. 7As we
see it the investigation has established
the fact that the State dispensary has
been delivered into the hands Of graft
ers and it is for the people to apply
the remedy by sending men to the
legislature who Will enact amend
naents to the law that will render
grating difficult and dangerous, if
not impossible, and then elect men
who have not been affiliated with the
gang of grafters either directly as at
taches of the graft ring or as whiskey
drummers. The hue and cry for the
destruction OF the dispensary system
is dying out, save fn a few quarters
and the people as whole are return
ing to a common sense view Of the
question-that the system itself is
an Improvement on either high license
or theoretical prohibition and that the
system has been brought into discred-
it by corrupt management. The
strongest RECOMMENDATION that the
dispensary system has to our favora-
bic consideration is that the people
can control it absolutely by the zsxer-
else of the authority that they pos
sess. # it is nisraanaged they are re-
sponsible, and they have the power to
turn out the rascals and put new men
in charge, and this we believe the peo-
pie Of South Carolina will determine
to do this summer.

remotest chance Of election but he
may succeed in accomplishing the de-
feat of Mr.. Manning, the best man in
the race.
We await with anxious interest to
see whether Jones will crowd Brun-
son off the prohibition platform or
Brunson will crowd Jones. There is
bound to be d pushing and showing
on this platform before the campaign
ends and we anticipate an interesting
little scrap, as side issue, to de-
termine which of the two is the only
and original prohibition leader.
Manning and McMahan will also
crowd each other on a single plat
form, but Mr.. Manning can justly as
sert that he claimed it first.
Mr. Lever can remain in Washing
ton with an easy conscience and an un-
troubled spirit. He has a hard and
fast cinch on his seat in Congress for
another term, for it is not likely that
4 Republican will ever be able to oust
him.

MI. John j. McMahan, the latest
entry in the race for Governor, is a
gentleman for whom we in common
with ali who know him, have the.
highest respect and in whose honesty
we have the greatest confidence. His
platform, in so far as he defines it in
his announcement, meets with our ap-
proval. It is, however, identical with
the platform announced by Mr.. Man
ming several weeks ago, and we are
somewhat at Joss to understand
why Mr.. McMahan gives it to the
public, with a subdued flourish, as an
original production. If you strip MI
McMahan's announcement Of its ver-
biage and the personal explanations,
it is fairly good paraphrase of Mr..
Mannings platform. He may feel
It to be his duty as a. citizen to
conduct an educational campaign
with the governorship as his goal,
but unless his speeches should devel-
op something much more distinctive
than is foreshadowed in his an
nouncement, We do not see wherein
lies the urgent need Of his candidacy.
Mr.. McMahan's candidacy will serve
to complicate the race and will streng-
then the position Of those candidates
who represent the two extreme views
respecting the dispensary-the uncom-
promising opponents of the dispensary
and the men who ask nothing better
than the dispensary management as
il is and has been Mr.. McMahan
has a great many personal friends IN
all sections of the State, and standing
on the same platform as Mr.. Manning
the votes that he will receive will be
votes against Mr.. Manning and in
directly votes for the candidates who
entertain contrary views. For this
reason we regret Mr.. McMahan en-
tering the race at the eleventh hour,
for if the vote of those citizens who
believe that the dispensary properly
and honestly administered is the best
solution Of the LIQUOR question, is so
divided. the chances Of electing a man
Of the character and ability cf Mr..
Manning or Mr.. McMahan is reduced
to minimum. The out and out op-
ponents of the dispensary and the
friends Of the present management,
could not have devised a better
scheme to defeat the reformers Of the
system than to have two such men
as Manning and McMahaa in the
race for Governor on the same plat
form. We have too much confidence
in Mr.. McMahan to entertain for a
moment a suspicion that he would
even consider such a scheme or be a
party to it. but the result Will be the
same. AS We see the situation at
present Mr McMahan has not the
