could aid in correcting railroad

Mr.. Summersett was evidently
born under a rhyming planet, as
will be seen from the following
couplet "All the votes that Sci.

Mr.. Manning answered the
Blease criticism of his vote on
the Jim Crow car bill by stating
that when it was first introduced
It's provisions were glaringly de-
Iective and actually ind ecent, so
that he and others felt that ihey
had no course but to oppose it
and it was defeated. Aflerward
when these defects were remed

that the advocates Of county

speakers, Senator Tliiman be ng
the first. The senator, who 10
looking remarkably well, spoke
for more than an hour and a
half in his characteristically
forceful and impressive manner,
the theme of his discourse being
the dispensary. He said after
his arduous labors in Wash
ington it would have been pleas
ant 10 have gone to his home
andrested, but he felt that he was
under obligations TO the peopel
of South Carolina, and although
without opposition for reflect
lon-,he therefore,decided to make
as many speeches as practicable
In this campaign, recognizing as
he does the fact that the people
look upon him as leader and
are entitled 10 his advice and
counsel. He explained why he
lnaugurated "circus" of his
own instead of following the
regular state campaign speak
ers. Owing to the number
OF state candidates. about 25,
1T is impossible for one in
the limited time allowed each
speaker at a meeting. to give an
intelligent idea as 10 VINO he is
and what he stands for. He there
fore determinednot to accompany
the state campaign party.
Mr.. Iillman soon got down TO
the issue before the people-the
dlspensary. He gave "a history
OF It's establishment and reviewed
It's record up to the present. He
sad that there are only three
ways Of handling the liquor ques-
hon, by prohibition, diSpensary
or license. He dweit on the i'm
practlcabIlity Of prohibition and
stated his objection to the H.
cense system. He contended
that the dispensary is the best
solution. He said that a legis-
laiure should be elected that
Will throw the proper safe
guards and restrictions around
the state dispensary, and in
this connection pointed out
his objections to a system of
county dispensaries in lieu of
the present system. If rotten.
ness and corruption can not be
kept out OF the state dispensarv,
IL viii be impossible to prevent
graft, stealing and rake-offs in a
county dispensary, where the
opportunities for :ascality will
be very much greater. He Jumped
OH the last legislature with both
feet. He said that the members
elected 2 years ago were elected
not on issues but on their good
looks + good speeches. The dis
pensary was not then an issue.
After repeated charges of corrup
ton in the management of the
disponsary the legislature neither
killed the system nor passed a
law to purify it.
The Senator reviewed the work
OF ihe dispensary investigating
committee, which, he said, had
failed TO secure evidence upon
which parties accused or suspec-
ted Of stealing could be convic-
ted iu court of law. He char
ged the committee with refusing
to pursue Itsirquiies in certain
cases, notably in the Newberry
matter and the Ianahan affair

the conclusion that the result of the
recent elections in the United States
Is manifest expression of the grow
ing hatred of the American people for
the exactions Of the trusts. Tie
American press Is hardly as candid,
mately, in this regard than any for
eign journal can possibly know ii. We
believe the DEDUCTIONS from abroad
are correct, and wholly patent TO the
real situation We are, as a people,
infinitely patient and abide religiously
by our faith in the timely adjustment
OF all popular wrongs; but it is sig
nificant only Of the power that lies
behind repression, and Is in no wise
a deliberate. or cowardly concession
to admittedly irremediable abuses.
Whenever the patience Of the people
shall be exhausted, and the hour ar
rives for their declaration Of rebellion,
there viii be instant and comprehen-
sive remedies invoked that will clear
up the situation In a fashion that win
astonish our continental brethren as
well as those responsible for the pro-

concerns, that reckons without this

country who does not know, in his
heart, that the day is to come when
the spirit Of America viii confront
him with an inexorable demand for
surcease and compensation, and that
he must answer by the laying down
of his tremendous advantages. 1t Is
this very knowledge and the correla-
tive ignorance of when that hour is
to come, that is responsible for the
vast and universal greed now inspir-
ing the commercial accumulations OF
the day.
