TALKS ON PROHIBITION

erS began last fall, and which they
have conducted with much ability to
its successful conclusion yesterday.
They were aided greatly, however, by
the fact that those who lacked SYM
pathy with their views had nothing
to offer in place OF prohibition ex-
cept the county dispcnsaries. The
vote yesterday is even more con-
demnatiOn of the dispensary than an
appreciation OF Statewide prohihi-
ton, or at any rate quite as much so.
Even counties which had accepted it,
and where 1t was producing a hand
in favor Of wiping out the system,
root and branch. In a few months
the offspring Of the Great Moral In
stitutiOn' will have gone the way Of
the old State dispensary, the opera
tion Of which produced a stencil in
South Carolina which has not yet
ceased to give offense.
The vote cast yesterday is light as
compared with the vote cast in the
Democratic primary. perhaps less
than half; but it is especially s,gniii-
cant that since the State was deter
mined to make the experiment. in
favor Of which its citizens yesterday
gave their verdict. all parts Of the
State were agreed in the matter. As
this article is written it cannot be
stated positively that every county en-
ceDt Charleston has voted for prOhi-
bition, but it looks as if that is what
has happened. Certainly not more
than one or two others. if any. have
given majority against prohibitioI:
and the Importance Of this. as we
have just suggested, is not to be be-
Titled. We hope that it will be pom
dercd especially by the people Of this
city. CharleStonians do not want
prohibition and the city has given
as was its right, heavy vote against
it; but il is one thing to oppose the
enactment rf Il law and quite another
thing to oppose respect for il after
It's cnactmend That is a mistak e
which we hope no Charlestonian who
lays claim to be classed as a good
citizen will make. 1t is no narrow.
bitter factional majority which has
passed Statewide prohibition. Those
who voted for L lesterday included
many Of Charlestou's best friends
outside the city.

least two-thirds vote, and the ma

Where Responsibility Rests.
charleston Post. l5jh.)


There can be no question OF the
result OF yesterdays election on the
liquor question. BY more than a
twO-thirds majority the voters have
confirmed and made effective the law
enacted at he last session Of the
General Assembly, and, after Janu-
AIRY | next it will be unlawful TO sell
alcoholic beverages in South Caro-
lima in any qquantity or through any
agency. The last ycstige Of the dis
penSary system, devised % years ago
as substitute for prohibition, is
swept out by this vote from the only
ID counties in which it retained a
footing. Only two counties OF the
State returned majoritics against
hihitiOn-Charlcston with a vote
OF ten to one, and Dorchester by a
much smaller margin.
4 total OF fewer than 10000 votes
were cast, which is less than one-half
the number OF votes cast at the
certainly no more than one-third of
the eligible voters in the State. This
does not, by any means, indicate that
snap judgment has been taken upon
the issue, and it may as we'll be rec
OgniZcd at once that the sentiment of
the people OF South Carolina is. at

EASLEY POLICEMEN ATTACKED.
Two Arrests Made and Men Lodged

(Easley Progress, 16th.) }

In attempting to arrest several
disorderly negro men last Sunday
night. Policeman Pete Sanders was
struck or the head with stick or
bludgeon, being severely injured. and
left lying unconscious In an alley
near ;hc roller mills for some time
before he recovered sufficiently to
make his way to the street and give
, the alarm.
1t is alleged that there were three
negroes in the party: Rufus and
Luke Hamilton and Aleck Wakefield.
They seemed to be drunk and were
very disordcrly. Chief Patterson and
sanders were on the lookout for
them, but were not together at the
time Sanders was assaulted
Mr.. Patterson accidentally ran
across Luke Hamilton, who, it is
said. was the party who struck Mr..
Sanders, about s o'clock, anG seeing
him. As he was proceeding - the
guard house with him, Sanders, who
had regdincd consciousness and was
making his way to the street, net
them and reported to the chief what
had occurred. Luke Hamilton. who
was not handCuffcd, at this junCture,
made a break, and despite the fact
that he was fired on several times by
Mr. Patterson, gained his liberty and
ran three or four miles TO the home
OF his parents near EnOn churcL.
A posse was quickly organized and
by ~ o'clock he was caught by Har-
mon Williams and Dewey Team as he
was attempting to escape from his
fathers premises. One of the others,

PARTING OF THE WAYS"

"In the resignation of Mr.. Bryan
the inevitable has come to pass. Why
it was delayed SO long is puzzle to
those, who, possessing some know
ledge of the President and the Sec
rotary of State, counted from the
outset their disagreement was but a
question of time. Two men more un-
like in tempermental outfit and intel
lectual equipment were never yoEed
together in the same service.
Conserving that since the clash OF
arms in Europe the Secretary OF
State has been milestone not only
around the Presidents neck, but
around the country's neck as well. 1t

indispensable to the legislation which
Mr.. Wilson sought Of Congress and
thus to the immediate success OF the
administration. in spiie of sQne
personal gaucheries which brought
Mr.. Bryan into ridicu!c, but did not
impair his party Standing, he lent a
he lping hand to measures which else
wise would have gone astray. There
is a glimpse of friction on the matter
of prohibition. But this was in {
way tided over. The break comes
therefore, suddenly, bolt out OF
the blue, when the public was least
expecting it.
"Yet the relief, which most
thoughtful people feel, that at su
preme moment a most unequal foreign
minister is disposed of, takes secort
place IN their minds by le assurance
that the exit means no backdown Of
the government, or lowering of thc
flag before duties, which, however
repugnant, are memorable"
