PUBLIC SENTIMENT

Our Six snd Twenty correspondent
calls attention to conditions In this
county which are deplorable IL he has
been properly informed, and he is
rather careful in his statement. While
We believe the dispensary would make
matters worse instead of better, let
us face the condition as represented.
Officers OF the law cannot be blamed
II prohibition does not prohibit" for
the blind tigers in this county are of
the skulking cayote variety and not
The open barrooms OF Columbia and
Charleston. But with a little bit of
moral sentiment to back up juries and
put convicted persons on the chain
gangs, blind tigers would be as scarce
here as in Western North Carolina.
Blind tigers should be handled in
Magistrates courts. That is the great
trouble. Jail cases must be tried first
that has become a law OF custom.
and court ends before the liquor
cases are reached and they go over
from session to session.
Representative ]. w. Ashley had a
bill TO remedy this and give Magis-
trates more jurisdiction. It did not
become a law--but It should have
done SO. and We hope 1t will next
year and road working army be re-
cruited from the liquor sellers.
While we know from observation
and experience that Anderson Is one
of the most moral places in the coun-
try, especially SO when size 4 consid-
cred. yet we will not deny our cor
respondents statement that there Is
too much liquor being sold here. The
city has no right TO permit blind
tigers within It's borders to sell liquor
to negro farm labogersA EDrink knocks
them out OF work from Saturday till
about Tuesday.
On the other hand we cannot see
where the dispensary would help my.
II would only spread the trouble more
widely and make the entire negro ten

BY HIS OwN STANDARD

Sometime ago we called attention
to- what we considered the cnormity
of the action OF Abraham Lincoln in
liberating a horde OF slaves upon a
dcfenseless population OF women.
children and old men.
We have always thought Lincoln a
much overrated man who got into Of
flee by chance, as the popular vote in
1860 was much against him-LincolD,
1,866,462; Douglas. l,375.157: Breck-
enridge. S47.953; Bell. 590.953; total
4.68O.525.
But Lincoln's emancipation procla-
nation was far different in intent and
in tone from his speech at Charleston,
Ills, In 1889. when he said: 81 will
say that ! am not, nor ever have been,
in favor OF making voters or jurors
of negroes. nor of qualifying them TO
hold office. nor to- inter-marry with
white people; and | will say in addi-
tion to this that there il phySicai
difference between the white and the
black race which believe will for.
ever forbid the two races living TO.
gether on terms of social or political
equality =. |, as much as any
other man, am in favor OF having the
superior position assigned to the
white race
And on the 1st of January 1863 lie
set the negroes free, stating in long
preamble that this was done "as fit
and necessary war measure for sup.
pressing the rebellion"
Therefore measuring Lincoln by his
own standard. he was not much OF a
man.

Nothing to do but work
Nothing to eat but food,

Nowhere to sleep but in bed
Nothing to weep but tears,

Nowhere to go but out,

There is no vacancy in the solicitor

time, and Bonham is solicitor OF the

And this is followed by an equally

Senator Smith is supporting along

To tho Editor OF The Times Dispatch:
Sir-The crack OF firearms again this
Christmas reminds mo of what j have
long believed. and that is that there
ought to be some law that would pro-
hibit the indiscriminate sale OF pistol
cartridges. The young negro buck.
crazed with whiskey, with automatic
revolver and n pocket full OF cartridges.
Is a very dangerous animal to have
around. He knows no law save fear,
and. thus fortified, fear largely dis
appears.
l believe that the young negroes own
more firearms than the whites. and 1t
seems that arms certainly n part
Of their holiday, if not daily. outfit. We
may have improved the negro by Civ
Ing him n little book learning. but I
doubt 1t. 1t is said "a little learning is
dangerous thing" and If this Is ap-
plicable anywhere, it is certainly appli-
cable to the negro.
Our incoming Legislature can make
no more important laws than laws
looking to the conservation OF the So
ciety OF our beloved old State. We
should be as much interested In tho
future social welfare OF our children
as we are in their future financial VOL
fare Negroes. whiskey and firearms
mako bad combination We should
have protection against it. You know,
Mr. Editor. that there Is q vast differ
ence between the negro of to-day and
fifty years ago. / believe you also
know that the people of Virginia have
more forbearance than the people OF
California. w. g. COUSINS.
