CHRISTENSEN SATISFIED. PsHAR!

It is refreshing to note that
Senator Christensen who figured
so largely on the asylum investl
eating committee and who repre-.
sented the majority report. is now
airing himself IN the Columbia
State, and using the columns of
that great daily to argue himself
into the halluc,nation :hat he and
his co laborers won out. If it is
soothing to the Senator from
Beaufort he should not be disturb
led, but to those Of US who were
OF the groundit looked very much
like the majority of that investl.
eating committee received the
Legislative boot right between the
pistol pockets, else why did the
Senator from Beaufort take un
bragg at not being appointed on
the conference committee: The
presiding officer with his usual
wise discretion in appointing the
conference committee selected
three Senators representing the
three different ideas that had not
been rejected by the legislature,
and these gentlemen having moth
ing but the good Of the State at
heart succeeded in taking the
threeI plans offered and out OF
them they were able to construct
a splendid solution of the asylum
difficulty. but had the Senator
from Beaufort been selected on
the conference committee the
probability is that an agreement
would rot have been reached. and
nothing would have been done to
relieve the conditions needing i'm
mediate attention. The bond
proposition was defeated. the
turning over the management Of
the institution to set Of polite,
ianS was defeated, so was the
scheme to sell the present asylum
property defeated, aud the at
tempt to besmirch the character
OF Dr.. J. ". Babcoch was also de-
feated. The adoption Of the con-
ference report embraces the ideas
of the minority Of the !nvestigat-

IDEAS Of Senator Mauldln Of

Richards and the others. The
only thing that McLeod's op-
ponents can bring against him is
that he does not believe in the
pcactibility of State wide prohi-
bition legislation, but prefers
TIE Democratic principle of local
self-sovernment, whereby the
people can decide the system Of
liquor regulation they prefer,
and the system best suited to
their conditions and environ.
ments. If the enforcement Of
prohibition continues to permit
the flooding of the country with
liquor through the express com
panieS. the masses will not
stand for the farce and will
want relief from it. Heretofore
the ProhibitioniSts were on the
aggressive side, but now they are
on the defensive. and unless they
can convince the masses that un-
der prohibition conditions have
Improved. their rcause will be very
weak by the time the next pr.-
mary comes on. If on the other
hand, the Prohibitionists will get
busy and see that the law is en-
forced, even as we'll as most laws
are enforced, then their cause will
be strengthened, and they will
land their choice for governor,
but as things look now, the coun-
try is full of liquor and not dol
lar of revenue do the taxpayers
get out of it, all of the money go
ing out Of the State. leaving Us
with nothing but the evil effects
Of liquor consumption. No one
could expectthat the Prohibition
lists would stop the conSunpt
ali together, but when they per-
suaded the people to vote for pro-
hibltion they made great promis-
es. and the voters are going to
hold them to them. It needs no
argument TO prove whether or
not prohibition is even a partial
success, the people know whether
lit is working for the best or not.
and when the head Of the Anti
Sa.oon League comes around his
hearers will know. whether or
not he has earned bis big salary
for the work done in getting the
people to vote out the legal sale
of liquor, having their taxes rails
ed. and yet having the liquor with
them still. The argument of what
Kansas has done on paper, will
not work any more, the people
will have to be shown that their
own eyes have deceived them.
The right of the people to rule
IS what the Democratic party has
been coutending for always and
when they are permitted TO adopt
rule. that rule made by them
selves Will be observed: it is this
plank in the platform of Hor.
Thomas G.. Mcleod that appeals
TO the conservative masses in
this State, many of whom are
ProhibitionistS from principle.
but who believe the cause Of
temperance Will be more effect
ually advanced by standing by
the right Of the people to rule,
and against the enactment of
laws that are unSuited to the con-
ditions and environments Of a
community. This element favor
temperance Legislation, but they
regard the methods of the Prohi
biticnists impractical, and they
will not support them il it, hence
their support OF man who stands
for Local Option.

Holidays

The Messenger does not share In
the idea that we have too many legal
holidays but II does believe that one
OF two OF them have not been well
appointed. Instead OF having too
many holidays as a matter OF fact the
American people do not have enough.
They take life too seriously, drudge
at too fast and too wearing pace
to make the most OF their three score
years and ten. Holidays, instead OF
being punched up at some season OF
the year should be distributed
throughout the twelve months with
evenness and should be the nations
great days OF relaxation and renewal
OF youth. Some day when we find
there are not pots OF gold at the ends
OF the rainbow we will begin to live
easier and happier.-St. Adams Mes
senger.

Emperor Williams open statement
that he is divinely appointed to rule
the German nation will be no news
to observers of his career. His whole
life since he became Emperor has
indicated his confidence that me
Und Colt" were in partnership. On
the whole his declaration against
woman suffrage may cause him more
trouble for while the men of Ger
many have accepted the Kaiser's
view for twenty years now, perhaps
the women won't. The real truth
may be though that Emperor Viii
liam is getting jealous of Col. Theo-
dore of America as a press agent
and realized that he had to do some
thing startling to get first place in
the newspapers again.

much more convenient for the gener-

We should say that no person has
a better reason than a newsaperman
