sCORRECTING A CLIPPING"

In view of an editorial which ap-
peared in The Herald and News Fri
day, it is deemed but fair to print IN
the same columns the following edi-
torial from the Observer of Friday:
sOne newspaper does not endorse
the statements or opinions of another
by copying them; and yet no paper
should copy from another anything
that is unfair or injurious to anyone
The Observer is careful about its clip
pings from other papers, though in
the hurry of selecting articles it is
often impossible to give them more
than a glance either in clipping or
proof-reading. This explains why the
following paragraph from a long clip
ping from the Colleton Press and
Standard appeared in Tuesdays pa
per:
"But why notice the Vaporings OF a
governor whose sympathies are with
the liquor elements in and out Of the
State-a governor who is reported to
have stopped at a. blind tiger. and
treated a coterie of friends the morn
ing he was inaugurated as the chief
executive officer Of the sovereign State
Of South Carolina?"
1--WE regret that this portion of the
clipping appeared in The Observer;
for, while We. have no sympathy with
Gov. Bleases attitude on the liquor
question, We desire to be fair toward
him, as we'll as everyone else; and we
do not believe there is any truth in
the report the Colleton paper mentions
If there is any such report. If there
was nothing else to discredit the re-
port, the fact that Gov. Blease was .
very sick man the day Of his inaugu-
ration, and in no condition to be treat
ing his friends at blind tiger or else
where, would be sufficient to show that
the story is without foundation.
It is only right and just to say that
If we had read the clipping more care
fully this would have been cut out.

There are several reasons for this.
One is that in a coast region-in any
coast region-Whiskey and beer are
regarded by a great many people as
as much of their daily diet as shrimp
and fish and steak and bread. Anoth-
er is that with the railroads On the
one hand and the water front on the
other, and the islands ana the inlets
and the hundreds of ways of ingress
and egress, those who are disposed to
violate the law can not be prevented
by whole army from doing so. And
in Charleston, another and important
reason, is that the start wasn't right.
The people of Charleston-rightly or
wrongly-got the notion in their heads
that the remainder Of the State was
saying to them, 'You have been think
ing too much of yourself all along;
now, you've got to do so and so,' and
the people of Charleston wrongly,
but as matter of fact, nevertheless
got the notion into their heads that
the enforcement of the dispensary law
would be an infringement upon their
personal rights-and governors may
come, and governors may go, but while
Charleston stands the dispensary law
won't be enforced.

The whole thing in the lower part
of the Standardization, particularly,
We have reference to-is farce, and
always will be, so long as men are
constituted as they now are. Better
far to let Charleston have some kind
Of law under which they could do
what all the powers of earth can't pre-
vent them from doing, and still be
within the pale Of the law. One law
towards which the attention of the
people of whole State is directed,
which proves a bowling farce, and
which the whole State militia and the
whole United States army couldn't
enforce in the States principal city, is
bound to SOW the germs of disrespect
for all law-and that kind Of germs
breeds fast.

CHARLESTON, THE ISLE OF PALMS
AND THE DISPENSARY LAW.

There have been more people from
your section of the State at the Isle
of Palms this summer than ever be-
FORE" remarked the manager of this
resort to the editor of The Herald and
News and to the writer on Sunday. We
have never understood why this we'll
nigh ideal summer resort was not
more generously patronized by the
people of Newberry and of upper
South Carolina. South Carolina has
contributed largely during the past
number of years to the support of the
resorts of the western North Carolina
mountains. There is no doubt the
North Carolina mountain resorts are
worthy of liberal patronage, but it
would seem that more of the people
of South Carolina would choose a re-
sort in their own State, with equal or
superior advantages, and far more
easy Of access.
The Isle of Palms is now under the
management of Mr.. James Sottile.
There have been many improvements
having for their aim the comfort and
the pleasure Of the summer visitors,
and one who has been familiar with
the place is struck at once with the
change.
There were some $500 people at
this resort on Sunday. Many of them
were from Georgia and Florida. They
were out for day of rest and recrea-
ton, they were all in good humor, and
they all seemed TO be having good
time. Hundreds and hundreds of them
were in the surf during the day-and
the surf here is one Of the best on the
Atlantic coast.

Governor Ellerbe did the best he
could, and then Governor McSweeney
did all he could, and Governors Hey
ward and Ansel did the best they
could. The law now is as we'll en-
forced in Charleston as it ever was.
The constabulary is composed of good
men and true-men who are honest
and firm in their endeavors-and they
keep down the illegal sale as much as
they can and place as many restric-
tions around it as they can. But, siz-
ing up the whole situation, the best
they can do-and the best any set of
men could dds to hold the illegal
sale as far as possible within the
bounds of all the respeetability whic1
can attach to the sale of the commo-
dity.

When one in this section of the
State thinks of Charleston he wonders
how the dispensary law-or the prohi-
bition law, or whatever it may be call
ed is getting along down there, be-
cause there has always been a great
deal Of trouble in the enforcement of
this law down there. 1t will be re-
called, as matter of history, that Gov
ernor John Gary Evans placed in
Charleston what was officially known
40 metropolitan police" About the
only results achieved by the '*metro-
politan police" were bitterness and
the further estrangemnt of the people
Of Charleston from the people of the
other sections of the State. The meth
Cd pursued by Governor Evans may
have been wrong, and probably was,
but this doesn't excuse the people of
Charleston for their persistency in
the violation Of the law. Charleston
ought to obey the laws on the statute
books. But, after an intimate acquain-
tance of many years with Charleston,
we are convinced that the only way to

One Judge Gary from somewhere,
who has been up before some investi-
eating committee up in Washington,
has got off one or two good things, ac-
cording to the newspapers, and one Of
these is the following: ut is better to
take your competitor in business by
the hand than by the throat" In look
ing around over this town it seems to
me that every man is trying, at least,
to get his competitor and every other
man by the throat rather than by the
hand. Now, so far as I am concerned,
I have no competitor, and, therefore,
no one can say that I am in the least
jealous or envious, for I am in class
all to myself. Suppose I suggest that
the business men of Newberry adopt
this aphorism of this Judge Gary, and
see if there isn't something in it.
really think there is, and believe you
would find it so if you would try it
carefully.

All Of this stuff on the dispensary
law in Charleston was suggested by a
card which Vincent Chicco gave US
on Sunday afternoon. In the centre
of the card is his picture. On the left
hand side is a tiger and on the right
hand side is a lion. Above the tiger
is, "I fight for my equal rights" Above
the lion is, "To he'll with that it's
money we WANT Below is the fol-
lowing:
"The Tiger and the Lion, they had a
long fight
The Tiger worried the Lion day and
night
THIS IS NO LIE
THIS IS REALLY TRUE
When the Lion realized it under tho
red white and blue
He gave up the fight.

enforce the present liquor laws in
Charleston would be to wipe out the
town, plough up the streets, and SOW
them in salt. A dlspensary or a pro-
hibition law will never be enforced in
Charleston until human appetite runs

In trip to the Isle Of Palms even
those of the most cheerful and sunny
disposition will register one kick-and
that is not against the Isle Of Palms
management or anything connected
with it, but against the method which
the Charleston Consolidated Railway
and Lighting company chooses to han.
die the crowds in loading them and
unloading them. On Sunday afternoon
there were a. good many hundred peo-
pie kept waiting at the gates for at
least half hour, and then when the
gates were opened there was a mad
rush for the cars. This was at the is
land when the people were trying to
get back to the city. 1t does seem
that in the thirty minutes during
which the empty cars were On one side
of the fgate and the eager crowd was
on the other there could have
been some arrangement under which
the crowd could have been passed
gradually through the gate and loaded
on the cars. But it seemed that the
officials in charge were waiting for a
certain minute to open the gate, and
then the people could engage in the
wild rush for the cars, and if a fellow
happened to get run over it was his
own look-out-that was the way it ap-
peared. Nobody, however, seemed to
be out Of humor, and it was a good
natured scramble. Once on the cars,
those in charge are as courteous and
polite as one could desire, and this is
true IF t;1s officials in charge of the
boat from the Mt. Pleasant wharf to
the Charleston wharf.

do not want any one to think for
moment that I have given up The
Idler's park, for I am not one who
gives up any worthy cause in which 1
engage. This is worthy and will come,
but these Newberry people are conser-
vative-that is the mildest word I can
find to use-until it is actually pain
full. They are pretty good set, but
they want to keep on doing just as
their grandfathers did and are so set
in their ways that they will not do a
good deed if it looks like an innova-
ton of any kind. They forget that a
hundred years ago Newberry was one
vast park and there were so many
pretty berries in that park that look
ed so new and nice and sweet and
pretty that the citizens decided to call
the town NeWberry. I am really
ashamed of some of our rich men who
made their money right here in New
berry, and made it from the sweat OF
our own people, that they take so lit
tie interest in anything that is for the
benefit of the whole community. We
must have the park, and it is time tnat
something was doing. I will walt now
until some of those who are able 70
get away from town to enjoy parks in
other places return, and maybe they
will have a little more generosity in
their souls and be willing to do some
thing for the enjoyment of those OF
us who have to stay here and keep the
town together for them while they are
away, so that they may have a place
to which 10 return after their vacation.

There are very few people In this
town today who were here forty-four
years ago when came here, and many
changes have taken place since then,
and some times I can't help getting a
little reminiscent but just now I am
not going to indulge, but simply want
to say that then man by the name OF
Miller was street ,ovdrseer. and it
seems to me he lived somewhere near,
if not on the site Of, the Southern Oil
company's plant, and do believe the
streets were in better shape then than
what they are today. That is all the
reminiscence that I am going to in
dulge just now, but some time in the
future I am going to dig down in the
depths of memory and tell you some
thing of the people who made New
berry then.

VINCENT CHICCO

AT CAO SoAA4S SAo OCc@Ao'
80 to S51z Market st. Charleston, S. c.
Chicco was there when Tillman was
governor, and he has been there ever
since-"at the same old stand" He
sells a cigar called ''The Two Deter
mineds," referring to himself and Till
man, with the picture of himself and
Tillman on the lid. He says Tillman
was determined that Chicco should
quit selling liquor, and Chicco was de-
termined that Chicco would keep on
selling liquor and that the history of
Charleston, which is a part Of the his
tory of South Carolina, proved that
Chiccos determination had more force
behind it than Tillman's.

Another thing that has puzzled me
all my life is, why some people will
persist in misrepresenting things, or,
to be plain, will not tell the truth.
It pays to speak the truth if you do
not want to put it on any higher
ground. 1t is just like being honest.
The old adage, ''Honesty is the best
policy" is true if you do not put it on
any higher ground than policy, OF
course a man should not be honest
from policy Ary NOE n az h. should
speak the truth as matter Of policy,
but as I say to put it on no higher
ground it pays as policy to be honest
aid to speak the truth. But somehow
there is weak streak some where in
human nature that can not always rise
to the proper height. it takes some
courage Of a high nature to be man
in this age. But sooner or later it will
tell.

That is the situation as one who
knows Charleston can see in very
few minutes. Governor Blease's force
is doing as much to enforce the law
as any force since the law went into
existence-and it really seems that
they are doing more. They are doing
as much as good men can DO. But they
can't enforce the law in Charleston
and no other set of men could-so
long as Charleston is Charleston.
