his own good reputation by &C

his own good reputation by ac-
cepting such place:
The State dispensary has been
run by various boards for the
past thirteen years: Mr.. Manning
had an opportunity to vote out
one whole board because of its
corruption, andsince then he has
learned of one of his own con-
nections, Mr.. Boyhin, coming off
Of the board labeled all over with
suspicion. 1t does seem to US
that after SO many years Of un-
trial, the dispensary,
Acknowledged by Mr.. Manning
to be corrupt, there is a slim
chance of even so good a man as
Mr., Manning to purify it. If
Mr.. Manning believed the State
dispensary could be purified why
did he vote for the Brice Bill?
That measure was introduced as
an open Dagger to give the
people a chance to stab the dis
pensary to death. Mr.. Manning
voted for it, but may be it was
on the principle, killing the Indi-
an to make him good. # he pro-
poses to kill the dispensary to
purify it, then he should drop
his dispensary sheep clothing
and let the destroying wolf be
seen.
No man who voted for the Brlce
Bill can be a friend to the State
dlspensary.

WAS MISQUoTED.

We are glad to note that Sen
ator Tillman denies having said
that he s:can walk into barroom
with as much reverence as l can
a church. The Senator says he
was misquoted, that what he did
say was Il can walk into a bar
room with as much independence
as can a church" We cannot
understand why hewill connect a
barroom with a church, and why
it is that the reporters will mis-
quote him so often. AL Of the
reporters, regardless of whether
they are for or against the dis
pensary quoted Tlllman as hav-
ing said II can walk into a bar
room with as much reverance as
I can a church" not once, but on
more than one occasion. The
Columbia Record, a dispensary
organ, and which is being sent
out free all over the State filed
with a defence of the dlspensary
and laudations.of Tillman, quoted
the Senator as having used the
insulting language which has
given pain to so many church
people, and also to many who do
not belong to a church: but have
a reverance for things holy.
In the heat of debate a man
may say something that when
he cools off he would like to
change, therefore in parliment-
ary bodies, such as Congress
where a record is kept, a privi-
lese is given to edit the speeches
so that it often happens that the
speeches delivered upon the
floor. are very different from
those appearing in the Congress
ional record. If Senator Tillman
was correctly quoted at the out
set, and he afterwards realized
his mistake he did the proper
thing to amend his utterance,
even if the amendment takes
from his speech it's ginger, and
It's aptness, it is better so than
to have a sacraligious utterance
stand against him.

The "Double Pay" Dodge

The persistency with which
the dispensary organs play the
tune of ':double pay in their
fight against Mr.. Lyon would be
ridiculous if it were not so de-
spicable.
Everything connected with
the matter shows that the thing
is born and nurtured in revenge
for his showing up the frauds
and: corruption in the dispen-
sary.
The question of pay was dis
cussed by the investigating com
mittee in their sessions, and the
unanimous opinion of the COM
mittee was that they were enti-
tied to it under The law and by
precedent and custom-not a
single one of the seven members
Of the committee raised an ob-
lection. Afterwards one had not.

This section was visited last
Wednesday by a terrific wind,

on some of the farms near here
were totally destroyed by the
wind and hail. Considerable dam
age was done on the mill yard.
Several sheds were blown down,
and a dozen or more trees were
uprooted, one of which fell across

in the News and Courier an ac-

The public meeting of the W.
C. T. u, which was held at
Salem Baptist church on last
Wednesday evening was a great
success. The pulpit was grace
fully draped with beautiful
flowers and trailing vines, inter-
woven with white ribbon-the
emblem of the union. The pro-
gramme which consisted of songs,
recitations, readings and tableaux
was a good one and was well
carried out. The singing was
fine and the tableaux were of the
highest order. The readings and
recitations were also good, all
bearing on the one subject-tem-
perance. On account of the in
clemency of the weather, the
crowd was not so large as was
expected. The W. G. T. q. of
this section has not long since
been organized, and since its or
ganization several have taken the
pledge, and it is now in a pros
porous condition. It's efficient
president, Miss Marion Hicks,
deserves great credit for her un.
firing efforts put forth in behalf
of the Union, and to her the sue
cess of the public meeting held
on the evening of the 10Th, was
largely due.

SOMETHING PROFITABLE.

We should like for Senator
Tillman to devote some of his
time to an argument showing
why it is not to the interests of
the white people Of the State to
have a compulsory education law.
A good statesmanlike deliver
ance would be of an educational
value, and coming from Senator
Tillman it would carry force,
The Columbia State has been
making an earnest fight for COM
pulsory education and makes the
showing that the negro goes to
school, while the white children
remain away. There is much in
this, and if it continues it will not
oe many years before the negro
will be educated and the white
man will fall behind, and it needs
no argument to show what re-
suits follow.
South Carolina is peculiarly
situated, a compulsory law must
fall upon both races, but as the
State rightly contends, the ne
groes go to school anyway, ii is
the whites who are Indifferent Of
the cause of education, and the
question is, must we keep the
white children IN ignorance be-
cause perchance the negroes VII
be benefited also, when we ..iIow
that with, or without a free
school fund the negro school
houses are full always?
Senator Tillman is opposing
compulsory education, and dis
passionate argument, such as he
Should he capable of making,
will help many to solve the prob
lem in their own minds. We
should also like to have the can
didates for governor give US a
rest Oh the whiskey clatter, and
in its, place something on the fu-
ture education Of the white chill
dren of the State.

dispensary organs raised the
howl ssdouble pay"

dlspensary organs raised the
howl double pay
In defense of the action of the
committee-or the majority Of
them-it was published that Sen
ator Tillman and Gov. JohnGary
Evans and Gen. R. R. Hemphill
and Attorney General Bellinger
and Senator Irby, and a whole
lot of other men who were Of
fcers, accepted pay as members
Of the constitutional convention
in 1895. "Oh," say the organs
and the defenders of the G.. MI.
:sthe constitution was not adopt
ed then forbidding one man to
hold two offices at the same
time"
This argument, if it proves
anything at all for the dispen-
sary, proves too much. 1t would
prove that the members of the
committee were not a legal COM
mittee; it would prove that the
committees to examine the State
colleges and other State insti-
tutions were not lawful commit
tees. The constitution does not
say one shall not receive pay
from two Offices at the same
time.
Let our great constitutional
objectors-who are mostly law
yers, as it happens-split hairs
over the question whether a
membership on the legislative
committee is an :;ofice" under
the constitution, and if it is, let
them knock the whole dispen-
sary investigation higher than
Gilroy's kite. To a simple lay
man it would appear that if it is
an ':ofice", then either legisla-
tors ceased to be members Of the
legislature when they accepted
places on the investigating com
mittee or else their appointment
on committees by the president
of the senate and the speaker of
the house is a nullity, and their
whole work is a nullity. The
constitutional inhibition is not
against what the howlers de-
nominate double pay"-it is
against sdouble" Office; there is
nothing said about pay-the
members of the const: :tutional
convention no doubt taking it
for granted that South Carolina
is not too poor to pay for what
ever services it exacts of its cit
izen: for they themselves accept
ed "pay" for their services in
that convention, as they had a
right to do.
The question of ;'pay" is not
involved here; if itlsa question at
all it is a question Of holding
'stwo Offices at the same time"
It will have to be proved first
that the Investigating committee
were "holding two Offices at the
same time" before the question
of their right to ''pay" comes up
at all. The objectors prove either
too much or else they prove
nothing at all.
If there had been anything in
the talk of "double pay" Senator
Tillman would certainly have
made use of it when he was say
ing all the harsh and bitter
things he could rake and scrape
against Mr.. Lyon in his Colum-
bia S peech. Senator Tillman,
though he boasts of being 'only
a cornfeld lawyer, knows there
is nothing in it; and every un-
prejudiced man knows it.-New-
berry Observer.
