IT'S Christmas Eve, and the hour Is

Merry sleighbells. hear them ringing
Can Santa be on this rough road?
To please good children he is coming,
With reindeer sleigh and heavy load
I can't exchange;my JOY for slumber,
Though I fear he'll pass me by,
Then Christmas morn, I'll be among

Who'll sit about and sigh and cry.
Wonder if he'll find my stocking,
It is hanging % rack.
No, I see him packing, packing,
All of my gifts into sack.
There goes doll, III call her Moll,
A Teddy Bear, with a suit to wear,
A Picture Book, IN yon, cozy nook,
A Tea Set too, oh. the fruit.
A Soldier-boy Doll, he's dandy,
A Signet Ring, nice gold locket,
A pretty Bracelet, some Lowney's can

A Purse that fits my long cloak poek-

has struck the South with such
force has awakened some Of it's
statesmen to know that public
thought is not created in the
minds OF men holding exalted
political positions with large sal.
ary attachments, but it's begin,
ming is with the people who
make and unmake politicians.
The people Of this State a mum
Der Of years ago voted in favor
of prohibition, in which we did
not then agree, nor do we agree
with the theory now, but Senator
Tillman was then Governor, and
he disregarded the mandates Of
the people, to create a liquor con,
troll system which bred more cor.
ruption than ever was conceived
in the days when the govern
ment was in the control of rene.
gades and looters. Now, how.
ever, the sentiment for prohibi'
tion has extended over the State
to such a degree that the politi.
cal instinct Of self. preservation,
brings our senior Senator to in.
troduce legislation seeking tc
prohibit the handling by public
carriers of liquors for sale in
States that have enacted prohi.
bition laws. In this we agree
with him and until the federal
government stops the sale
of whiskey in prohibition States,
prohibition is a nullity and
amounts to very little more than
a farce, but if the Senator can
succeed in getting Congress to
amend it's Interstate com
merce laws and give States the
sole right to handle this liquor
proposition, then conditions will
be such as to strengthen prohi,
bition sentiment, because the
principal objection to prohibitory
laws will then be removed.
We think: however, if the Sen
ator proposes to out Herod-Heroo
in prohibition legislation by go
ing to the extreme of wanting tx
deprive people of drinking intox
icants by not allowing persons
living in prohibition territory te
receive liquor for private use
then, in our opinion, the Prohi
bitionists should pray to be de
livered from such a friend. as
his extreme ideas will drive votes
away, whether he so intends o,
not.
The Senator, if he really
means to help along the prohi
bition movement, should direct
his thoughts towards getting the
government to withdraw from
the revenue department. the right
to issue United States revenue
tax receipts which are looked
upon as licenses to sell liquor.
# the government will refuse tc
issue these licenses in prohibi
ton territory, the selling Of liq
uor in such territory then be-
comes a violation Of both nationa
and State laws, and both gov
ernments will have the enforce.
ment of the law. The Senator
should not overload his bill aud
make it so top.heavy that it's ex'
treme load will kill it.
