ty, but if under this Act, liquor
can be broughtAin ''For Personal
Use" as some claim, then we do
not see how the legislature can
help the situation IN dry coun.
ties any more than what the
present laws provide. Our
main contention however, is, if
it is the wish of the majority for
the legislature to enact a prohi-
bition law, itcan as we'll be done
by the people instructing their
Representatives, and let them
act directly instead of sending
the question back for a vote.

cent of the voters who may or
may not be Indifferent as to its
enforcement, thus leaving ;. the
question where it was before,
and leaying it open for future
agitation to be threshed out in
every primary where the full
vote is obtained. Under the
present law counties have the
right to have elections on this
question and in a majority Of
them they have procured prohl-
bit.on laws. the few that retain
the right to sell liquor, can
whenever they see tit, abolish
the sale, but if they are forced
to come un der prohibition
against their will, in these coun-
ties, it will be with much diff
Guilty to secure a sentiment IN
favor of anything like a strict
enforcement.
Take the city of Charleston,
where there is a cosmopolitan
population who do not view the
sale of liquor as do other COM
munitles, we doubt very much
if the enactment of a statewide
law will bring about the enforce.
ment of a prohibition law in
that city; the same may be said
about Richland county, and
other counties that have reject
ed the prohibition idea-the sen
timent of the people must be
behind the law to have a proper
enforcement, and without such
enforcement the law is uullity.
In this county we have had
prohibition for several years,
and at least one attempt was
made to return to the legal sale
of alcoholic beverages. it failed
because the majority would not
consent to meet the require.
ments of the law regulating
these matters, but had the law
been complied with; we doubt if
the movement would have sue
ceeded; so it is with many other
counties, but while this and
other counties are not willing to
return to a legal sale of these
beverages and because of the
fact. there Is q very large pro-
portion of the population who
are not favorable to prohibition,
makes it difficult to secure the
enforcement of the law.
Much stress is laid upon what
is known as the Webb Act, it is
claimed that under this Act the
state will have the power to
prohibit the transportation of
alcoholic liquors into the state.
if this is true, the enforcement
OF a prohibition law can be OBJ,

Suppose the Dallas News has the
poor opinion of the Governor Of
the Lone State State it ex-
presses. the people of that state
do not seem to have the same
opinion, because, it is stated that
he was chosen over strong com,
petitors for re. election by some
thing like $4,000 plurality, not
withstanding The Dallas News
says:
"The affairs of Texas were
never so grossly mlsmanaged
as they have been during the
four years of his adninistra-
tion. It would hardly ex-
aggerate to say that the eleva.
ton of Mr.. Colquitt to the
Governship of this state has
shaken the faith Of thousands
in the ability of the people to
choose their servants wisely.
Indeed. If one were to rank
the misfortunes which Gov.
ernor Colquitt's administration
has brought on Texas, it is
possible that the weakened
faith in the feasibility of
Democracy, resulting from his
ineptitude, his intellectual lin
itations, and his iufataation Of
himself, would be counted a
graver and more condign con
sequence than even the plight
into which he has brought our
government affairs. "
Every Democratic newspaper
ought to be in position to de-
fend the administration from
attacks of the opposition, but
when it is attack by one who
has done service for the party,
and who represents one of the
largest constituencies iL the
states of the Union, there is no
time to answer by abuse, but it
is necessary to show by con.
vincing proof that the charges
are baseless. If our recollection
is correct it was but a few short
weeks ago this same governor
was being highly praised be
cause of his position on legisla-
ton seeking assistance for the
farmer-the elimination of cot
ton planting for one year, Gov

Pine Grove Grange Holds Meeting

Pine Grove grange held its regular

though regular spring day, a very
good attendance was present. II those
members who were not present had
known of the bountful spread the la

place, they certainly would have let
that pruning keep until another day.

have a contest for the purpose of in
creasing the memberships a special rate
to be given for 60 days. We have set
the mark at a total of not less than l00
members. Six new applications were
received and promises of many more.

The social given by the grange Fri.

big success. The hall was crowded,
everyone seemed to have a good time,
and card playing and dancing were the
features of the evening.
