Fraud Hunters.

Fraud hunting has become such a mania
that in the search for fraud certain learned
men have gone back 10 the time Of Moses
a veritable old "snoligoster". They say that
1t was his habit 10 cut his name on beech
trees and carve il on the door post OF all the
Court Houses and post cfices etc, OF his en-
tire domain nay further, that he would erase
the ma me OF amy other politician and put In
to place SEES the II! BE painted all the
rocks leading TO the Court Houses white and
then placed thereon his name in big caps
All the sign boards OF the merchants, tailors
grocers, etc. which were strung along the
public roads he erased and adorned with the
these wise antropologists, Ramses was a stu.
pendous. stultiloquent, blatent fraud
This shows how mistaken even learned
men can be when they 60 at a subject with
biased minds. Old Ramses very probably
offered q price Of some thousand ht-goats in
cludi Dg many asses and camels 10 the young
m en- OF tender sge, under three times seven,
who could best carve bis (Ramses) name. OF
course a greatnumber Of youngsters through
out every congressional district took a hand
in the contest and the result is obvious.
Some mention OF this TACT wss made in the
congressional record of the time but ii was
burned In the col hGgration OF the AlexaD-
drine library.
And nov theae wise men desire 10 !mpugp
Ramses motive s and cast g shadow OF fraud
over his memory.
Que malo!

Concerning Prohibition.

Georgia has gone for prohibition, This pa.
per has Of late years favored the dispensary
on the glornd that If whiskey will he bought
as 1t is bought, from adjoining States, the rev.
enue going to such States or to blind tigers,
the moral condition is worse than to have lis
sale regulated by selling through a govern
men ~dispensary.
1t is freely admitted that II the money
spent for whiskey can be kept in the pockets
OF the people. this is OF all things preferable,
II so per cent. less whiskey is sold than under
the dispensary or any other system, prohibi-
tlon is a failure.
II North Carolina now will join Georgia in
the prohibition movement, there will be some
chance for South Carolina to enforce prohib1-
ton. We will give Georgia and North Caro-
lima a chance, and II they give us a s~atisfac-
tory example OF enforcement Of the law in
those States, this paper will join the prohibi-
ton ranks.
Prohibition enforced Is the best Of all meth.
DDS OF dealing with liquors, but prohibition
that permits the traffic with other States and
In States conveniently situated for that traffic
Is worse than a failure. 1t builds up a host OF
law breakers In both the drinkers and the
sellers.

New Appointments.

President Finley OF the Southern Railway
Company in recent speeches said that he
wanted the people and the railway company
to be on good terms. when the best interests
OF the country and the welfare of all would
be best subserved. AS evidence of President
Finley's good faith he has recently promoted
to General Travelling Agent MIR. c. D.
Brown who has been the efficient and polite
station agent in this town for twenty years.
And as further evidence OF good feeling to
our people on the part of the railroad, Mr.. f.
L. Morrow has been appointed successor to
Mr.. Brown.
Mr.. Morrow, like Mr.. Brown, has been con-
nected with the railroad for a long time,
(eight years. and q more laborious clerk
never handled q pen. And no agent was
ever more uniformly acceptable to the Gus
toners OF the road. Having had eight years
OF training under one Of the most efficient
men In the employ OF the road, Mr.. Morrow
could not fall to be faithful 10 the railroad
and acceptable to all its customers.
Many friends congratulate both the gentle
men on their promotion.
Mr.. Browns headquarters will be in Spar
tanburg, but his family will remain at home
in Abbeville, where he will come. once q
week.
Mr.. Morrow's head quarters hereafter will
be at the station every day and he will be, as
aforetime, at home when of duty.
Here's good LUCK to the outgoing and TO the
incoming station agents.

The Lebanon Picnic.

The annual picnic at Lebanon, which may
we'll be termed the "old soldiers" picnic, was
given Friday, August md. This annual pic
mic is to have a place on the years program
OF pleasures, as long as there is one Of the old
boys TO answer the roll call.
Perhaps the largest crowd that has yet par
AIKEN OF the hospitality OF Camp Owen, and
the Lebanon and Sharon people, assembled
at Lebanon church on last Friday. The
crowd was most orderly and the dinner could
not have been improved on.
The speake rs Of the day were: Prof. Mark
E. Bradley and Mr.. G. NJ. Beasley. attorney at
this place.. Their speeches were IN good taste
and were received with due appreciation by
the audience, despite a storm which inter
rupted their remarks.
So well were the old soldiers pleased With
the spec ches Of the gentlemen, that immedi'
ately after the exercises were over they mel
and passed resolutions stating their great ap-
probation, and requesting that the speakers
write out their remarks for publication.
MI. Bessley has recently come to his
County, and he has taken up the practice o!
law at this plsce. He has evinced all OF those
Qualities that make for success and a bright
future is predicted for him.. Quick, intelli'
gent, ready OF speech, he is sure to win success
He has not come TO prey upon us, but with
open hands he has already become a factor In
building up the town.
Prof. Bradley was In the house Of bis
friends. in his own class and tribe. He was
at his best and his speech on Robert E. Lee
we'll deserved the close attention that it re-
ceived.

Personal Privilege.

The Press and Banner Acknowledges with
profound humility that develop mepts show
That there war the spirit OF graft in lis edi
torials abusing the old Court House ard e,
pecially the shutters.
When q man wants 10 buy q piece OF ploI-
erty his first step Is 10 run II down; but when
II Is bought II 1ises in value al once. tbs

1t is thought that The associate editor Mr..
w. Il. Bradley and the editor Mr.. Wilson will
pool their purchases and build q house there
with. Like The cid Scotch C~ovenanter, who
had all OF The beretics turned out Of the
church, leaving only himself and his daugh.

about his daughter. The only remaining

Another Need.

Tines" VINO i've in the city, who have their
hulues there, canno know what Il trial II Is
10 those VINO come from q distance 10 do
shopping OF attend 10 other busin ess to have
to wait about the streets until time to ave.
For instance, a lady accompanies her hus-
band TO town and after she has finished her
shopping she must wai' until he is ready TO
20 home. Where shall she go? TO her
friends? Suppose she has no acquaintance.
then what? She must loiter around, wait in
some store, or walk the streets until the liege
lord IL ready.
Most cities have some place to GO. The
railroads or street railways have frequent
stations which are utilized as waiting places
by people who are not travelling, simply be-
cause such places are convenient and COM
Portable.
Green wood has its depot In the very center
of the city and many people, women espe-
cially, enter 1t because there are comfortable
seats and q place 10 rest and wait. 1t must
be very disagreeable to a woman who has no
friends to wait in u place like Abbeville.
Most people from the country have friends, 1t
Is true, and when they have done their shop
ping and have TO walt 20 10 the home OF their
friends and there put in the time, but many
nave no acquaintanc es and perforce must
pass the time az best they can on the public
square.
Whether other towns have a place for peo-
pie to wait or not makes no difference to Alb
beville. We should have such a place. A
place where a mother could tax her children
and rest for the time che must walt.
Some will say that such a waiting place
would encourage loaing, but such a contin-
gency is not likely to arise, and If 1t did 1t
would very probably be better that the loafer
be there than on the streets.
One thing Is sure, every woman who comes
TO Abbsville to do shopping will say a long
amen to such a proposition. The mother
who has her little tots struggling after her
over the streets, tired Il worn out, would
thrice welcome such an institution.
A place of This kind would not cost the city
much. Practically all the expense connected
with such an institution would be the salary
of a janitor and waiting maid, after the insti-
tuition was established. II We had such a
place where the women could carry all their
bundles and their children many q woman
would come to Abbevilie to shop who now
delegate that duty to others on account OF the
obvious Inconvenience.
What say you? Do you agree? We would
like to hear from the good women on this
subject.

Victory fol Attorney General Lyon

Victory for Attorney General Lyon
In view OF the fight that is on in all parts
Of the United States to bring Corporations
under tn Q same rules Of justice and equity
that the individual is bound by. the recent
decision Of the Supreme Court in this State
In the matter Of the State against the British
and American Mortgage Company, is signif-
cant.
The practi cal result Of the decision is to de-
Glare valid an act OF the legislature taxing
such corporations, by which tax the State
recei YES an annual revenue OF something like
$4,000.
The decision OF the Supreme Court. written
by Justice Gary, and concurred in by the en-
tire Court closed a decided victory for Attor-
ney General Lyon. The case had been
heard by the Court. the State being repre-
sented by Mr.. Lyons predecessor, Attorney
General Ray, and q decision unfavorable to
the state had been rendered. Mr.. Lyon
made application to the Court to reopen the
case and grant q new hearing, stating his
points and authorities in this application.
The Court granted the re-hearing and found
in every respect in accord with Mr.. Lyons
presentation Of the case.
The decision OF the Court reverses It's for
m or decision, and 1t is very complimentary
to Mr.. Lyon. 1t might be added that 1T is
also a compliment to the members Of the
Supreme bench, who realizing that even
Courts sometimes make mistakes, were will
ling to correct any error rather than hide be-
hind precedent or what the lawyers call
"stsre decIsls.":
The decision was rendered by MIR. Justice
Gary and 1t is clear and forceful as are all of
his opinions. A fuller statement OF the case
taken from the News and Courier Is copied
elsewhere in this issue OF the paper.
