NO LIQUOR INTO DRY

The Webb bill which has re-
Gently passed both houses OF
Congress, and will in all prob
ability be signed by the Presi-
dent, is a law that should have
been passed long ago. A hue
and cry has gone up that it is
unconstitutional, because it in
fringes upon the natural rights
of the people. 1t does nothing
of the kind. 1t simply gives
the local state authorities the
power to seize shipments of
liquor from a wet state into a
dry state and to confiscate
them if they were shipped into
the dry state to be used con-
trary to the laws of that state.
And this is as it should be.
When a state has gone dry it
certainly should have the right
to protect itself from outside
liquor houses in conspiracy
with resident blind tigers and
violators of the law, and this is
the extent to which the Webb
bill goes and no farther.
Of course a wall of anguish
will go up all over the country
against the law, but in the main
it will be from those who have
a fondness for the stuff. If
whiskey can be banished from
South Carolina it will be a
blessing. 1t has caused enough
suffering and bloodshed al
ready. A few days since we
heard a gentleman say that he
had consumed lots of liquor
himself, but that it was a curse :;
that it would make you think
speak wrong, act wrong,
and that when under the influ-
ence of it even if you sat down
and kept your mouth shut,
you would look like a darned
fool, and we believe the gentle
man was right.

COMPULSORY EDUCATION.

All honor to Representative
E. P. McCravey of Pickens
county, the author of the local
option compulsory education
bill that passed the House of
Representatives by the decisive
vote of 81 to 10. 1t provides
for an election to be held when
one-third of the qualified cleo
tors in any school district petit
tions for it.
The trustees of the school
district have charge of the en-
forcement of the law. Parents
or guardians who do not put
the children in school are sub
ject to fine of between So and
$40 for each offense. The
measure carries no appropria-
ton.
The election is to be ordered
by the county board of edu-
cation if the majority of the
votes cast are in favor of COM
pulsory school attendance, the
McCrarey bill goes into effect
in that school district and all
children between the ages of
8 and Is years, not mentally or
physically disabled and whose
labor is not necessary for their
support, must attend the public
school for the period of at
least three months in each year
if the session be that long, pro-
vided they do not attend a pri-
vate school.
This law, although not giving
all that might be desired, is yet
a long step in the right direc-
ton.
We are glad to note that Rep
resentatives Massey and Sapp
Of this county voted with the
majority in favor of the bill.

The House of Representa-
tiveS acted wisely in killing the
Rembert bill, having for its OBJ
ject the muZzling of the press
of the state. The full text of
the proposed bill is published
elsewhere in this issue with
pertinent comments thereon by
The Pee Dee Advocate. The
bill was clearly in conflict with
both the state and federal con-
stitutionS guaranteeing free
dom of the press. There is be-
sides no good reason for such
a law. The demand for it
comes from designing dema-
gogues, who want to pull the
wool over the eyes of the peO-
pie. Thomas Jefferson, the
great first friend of the people.
insisted on the absolute free
dom of the press, as the great
palladium of the peoples liber-
ties. There may be abuses of
the privilege at times, but this
is no reason that the voice of
the press of the entire state
should be silenced because de-
signing politicians do not want
their methods and vices shown
in true colors to the people.

We agree with The Ander-
son Mail that instead of taxing
the development of water pow
er, as is proposed in the bill
now pending before the legisla-
ture, it would be better to en-
act a law regulating the charges
for current and power. While
these water power develop
ments are great assets in the
state, and should not be Grip
pied by unwise legislation, yet
there is no reason why they
should not be regulated as tc
their rates just as railroads
are. Being practically a mo
nopoly, the Southern Power
Company should not be lef'
free to fix its own charges fol
