HINEMON'S CONSISTENCY.

Mr. Hinemon, the avowed temper ance candidate, is working over time trying to disseminate information that would leave the impression that he is the only temperance candidate in the race for governor, when the truth of the matter is he is not one whit more a temperance candidate than any other candidate for this high position. Read the statement of the Anti-Saloon Lea que, published in this paper today, ,rela- tive to the position of the various can didated on this question. The truth IS any of the other candidates are more consistent than Hinemon on this ques
 tion. There is absolutely no difference in their position except that Hinemon declares himself specially in order to get votes and for no other purpose or he would evidently have announced this principle in his platform at the very beginning. It is not a matter of princi
 pal with Hinemon any more than it is with the other candidates, but it is a matter of getting votes. The manner in which the temperance people are divided on this question makes it evi- dent that Mir Hinemon will be far from carrying the temperance vote of the state, in fact, some of the best temper ance people of the state are positively Gt of heroic position. The truth is no man among them has done more for real temperance in Arkansas than George w. Donaghey. He is not ashamed of his position or his record and states it wherever necessary. He was one of the strong leaders who bearded the lion in his den" at Conway years ago and freed the town and county of the evils of intemperance. As Conway is an educational center, there is no tell Ing what this one act was worth to the state from whose hills and valleys everywhere hundreds of boys and girls have gone and are going to this popu- lar educational center
 But again, as to Hinemons consis- tency. He takes the stump with all the grace and manner of a Chesterfield and declares that he proposes to run for office on his merits and not on the demerits of his fellow candidates. He then proceeds to rip MT. Donaghey up the back for spending so much money and Mir. Kirby up the back for spend ing so much and using a United States Senator to help out in his race, and, in fact, makes two thirds of his speech by railing at the other candidates. If Hinemon is not spending as much money as Donaghey or Kirby it is because he IS either too stingy to spend it or can't get it to spend. It is not because he does not want the office bad enough. The News positively believes that every one of the candidates will spend all the money he is able to spend in a legiti- mate way and that none of them will spend it in an illegitimate way in order to be elected. Who objects to this? They have right to do so and it is their privilege, If they see ft It takes money to run for office and they are all spending it.
 MT. Hlnemon, you are nice man. You are good school teacher and can deliver fine lecture but as candi- date for governor, you are in the air.

Can This Be True,

We saw it stated in letter from
Washington the other day that the
figures of the internal revenue bu-
reau for the fiscal year 1907 show
that in the State of Virginia, where
saloons are licensed in different COM
munities, there were granted 2,957
licenses to retail liquor dealers. In
the State of Kansas, where the sale
of liquor is forbidden altogether,
but where drug stores do rushing
business, a total Of 1858 licenses
were granted to dispense liquor at
retail.
The population of Virginia is near
ly one-fourth greater than Kansas.
Licenses to retail dealers in malt
drinks like beer were issued in Kan
to the extent Of 637, while in Vir-
ginia the total was only 172. There
were 101 licenses to wholesale deal
ers of malt drinks in Kansas and on
ly 50 in Virginia.
The letter goes on to state that in
the State of Maine where prohibi-
ton has been upon the books for
fifty years licenses to retail malt
liquors were granted to the extent
of 46S against 172 for Virginia. The
population of Maine is less than
half that of Virginia. In the the
State Of North Dakota, where pro-
hibition is State wide, retail liquor
dealers were granted licenses to the
number of 1,055 and yet North Da-
kota does not have one-fourth the
population of Virginia. In the same
State were $50 men holding licenses
to sell malt drinks.
According to population there is
one retail liquor license in Kansas
for every 42S population, while IN
Virginia there is one license for ev-
cry 794 people. In Maine there
is one license for every 661 peo-
ple while North Dakota makes
worse showing than any the
others, by having one license to ev-
cry 241 people.
Acco ding TO the census figure in
1900 the deaths from drunkenness
furnish almost as startling figures.
For every 100000 people in Maine
there were ZIG deaths from drunk
enness, while in Alabama where sa-
looms were then licensed, the figures
are 1.10. Kentucky, where booze
was as free as water in 1900, made
a far better showing than Maine, the
average being l.63. Can these fig
be correct?:

Great Meeting at Sumter.

The Hon. James Wilson will visit
and address a farmers meeting al
Sumter on next Friday. This dis.
tinguished cabinet officer has not
only displayed great interest in the
agricultural conditions in the South
ern States, but Sumter, Lee, and
Orangeburg counties have: been the
recipient of special interest and IA
vors at the hands Of Mr.. Wilson
through his great agricultural de-
partment.
The State farmers Union, the
Cotton Growers Association of
South Carolina, and Commissioner
of Agriculture, E. j. Watson have
arranged a very interesting and in
structive program of discussion
about varied subjects of great inter-
est to the farmers Of Sumter coun-
ty, and every other county in South
Carolina. Then again, the farmers
Of Sumter. Lee, Orangeburg, and
Richland counties should remember
the fine work done by our deserved
ly popular and energetic Congress
man A. F. Lever.
The Sumter Herald says Secretary
Wilson is coming to Sumter in re-
spouse to the earnest solicitation Of,
and because of his close friendship
for Mr.. Lever. Our Congressman is
very close to the greatest farmer"
in the United States, Secretary
James Wilson. Mr.. Wilson's visit TO
Sumter should be considered as a
big compliment to Sumter county,
and to all South Carolina fal ,ners.
He is doing for S'.mter county, in
paying this visit to Sumter, what he
has time and again had to decline to
do for the farmers of other sections
of this great county, who have been
inviting him for years to visit their
sections.
The farmers Of Sumter county
have it within their power to show
by an enthusiastic and cordial re-
ception of Mr.. Wilson, that Con-
gresham Levers assertion to the
The times and democrat. [volume] (Orangeburg, S.C.) 1881-current, 1908-05-05

effect that the farmers Of Lee, Sum-
ter, Orangeburg and Richland are
really interested in the work which
the United States Department Of
Agriculture is carrying on in soil
surveys, fertilizer experiments, soil
utilization. and the experiments to
be made in winter pasture grasses;
good roads, etc., are really true
statements.
The Department of Agriculture,
with its more than three thousand
of the greatest agricultural experts
in the world and it's many hundreds
of thousands of dollars is hunting
for these farmers who desire to as
sist this government in demonstrat-
ing that science and practical farm
ing can, be worked together harmo-
niously and proftably to the farmer.
President r. I. Manning, of the
Sumter Chamber of Commerce, him
self practical farmer, and presi-
dent of the Sumter County Far
mers' Association, together with his
officers and members of the Sumter
commercial organization, and the
business and professional men of
Sumter city have put forth special
efforts to induce Mr.. Wilson to visit
Sumter.
Secretary Wilson's visit is not
alone visit to the city of Sumter.
The citizens of Sumter have turned
the big mass meeting over to the
farmers to run in their own way and
to suit their pleasure. profit, and
convenience. The city of Sumter
will do the honors, and receive and
entertain the distinguished cabinet
officer as BELTS a statesman and off
cial of his rank. All that the busi-
ness and professional men of Sumter
ask of the farmers of Sumter coun-
ty and South Carolina is that they
will show Secretary James Wilson
that they really want the co-opera-
ton and assistance of his great
agricultural department.
Secretary Wilson's visit is no poll
tical scheme. Neither is it brought
about as an advertising medium for
the city of Sumter, But Congress
man Lever himself a prominent and
very influential member of the agri-
cultural committee of the House of
Representatives, and staunch sup
porter of Secretary Wilson'S depart
ment desires to prove to that cabi-
net officer that the farmers Of Lev
er's district are up to date, and,
desirous of learning all that they can
from the department of agriculture.
Therefore, it is up to the farmers
of the Seventh Congressional Dis
trict to be in Sumter next Friday.
rain or shine, and when Secretary
Wilson makes his first appearance in
the Gamecock County of the great
Palmetto State, give him such a
rousing and cordial welcome that he
will never forget as long as he lives.
A telegram has been received by
President Manning of the Sumter
Chamber of Commerce, stating that
Honorable Charles S. Scott, Chair
man of the Committee of Agricul-
ture of the House of Representatives
will accompany Secretary Wilson
and Congressman Lever to Sumter
to meet the farmers of South Caro-
lima at the monster farmers meet
ing at Sumter. This is an addition
al compliment to the farmers of the
Seventh Congressional District and
is all the more the reason why they
should be here.

The Democrats in Congress are
still demanding the consideration of
the campaign publicity bill; a bill to
put wood pulp and print paper on
the free list, and the anti-injunction
bill. These measures are insisted
upon by Mr.. Williams, the Demo-
cratic leader, as all part of the Pres
jdent's legislative program.
