just reasons for calling Boealusa a

THE LIQUOR PROBLEM.
sheriff Hunters Views on How Pro-
hibition MAY be Enforced.

Sheriff Hunter has decided views
or the question of how the Illicit sale
of liquor can be handled and in "A re-
cent interview the sheriff discussed
the question I'm detail Among other
things Sheriff Hunter says, if he were
to declare that he was going to
make Lancaster county as dry as a
powder house, and stop everybody,
who wished to do so, under the state
and federal laws, from ordering one
gallon of whiskey in each calendar
month, which they have a right to do,
that some of his enemies would then
say he was a fool, and so would every
sensible person. But he said that
this would have to be done before
any county could be made as dry as
powder house.
Sheriff Hunter says that he knows
OF no one violating the liquor law in
Lancaster county, and if any one else
does and will give him the proper in
formation and evidence. that he will
guarantee that prosecutions will
promptly follow But he asks that
when any one wishes to give him in
formation that he come and give il,
and not be afraid nor ashamed to let
his true name be known, but confe
out openly like brave and respect
able white man always does, who
never tries to stab another in the
back. Sheriff Hunter says he always
discharges the duties OF the sheriffs
| office according to his best Judgment
and in as humane manner as pos
sible. and when he makes mistake
he always endeavors to profit by it
. doing better the next time.

COOPERATION NECESSARY.

Much has been said and written
about the enforcement of the laws
against the Illicit sale of liquor.
Many people seem to think that the
officers of the law are alone respon-
sible for it's enforcement, while 9TH
ers declare the people are RESPONSE
BILE. To our mind the necessity for
cooperation was never better illus
trated than in this matter. 1t calls
for diligence on the part of the Off
GERS and help on the part of citizens
generally. 1t is necessary that the
officers be fearless and no respectors
Of persons, that they be just as en-
ergetic in running down one class of
people as another, absolutely indif-
ferent as to how their course of con-
duct will affect their personal popu-
larity, their sole aim being to see
that all criminal laws are enforced.
The public. on the other hand, needs
to realize that it has also part and
a most important part at that, in
bringing about the punishment OF
the violators of the law. Public SEN
timent should be such that no indi-
vidual who has knowledge of any
violation of the laws should hesitate
to give such information to the Off
Ncers And where there is good
SNgong public sentiment, not too
mNkh diffused, but rightly crystaliz-
ed there will be found individuals
who VIM come out openly and above
board furnShing the necessary in
formation upon which the officers eau
act. Hearty coAeperaton, therefore
on the part of both ,@Rcers and pub
lie is the sine qua non for rigid
enforcement of the crin4 inal law.

Shaking Hands.

The other day / shook hands with
lot or men-big men and littA.
men, old ones and young ones. And
noticed that the ones who offered a
lrm grip also looked me squarely in
the eye. and the ones who offered a
habby hand looked at a point over
my shoulder
| wonder if hand shaking isn't a
good indication of character? Per
maps ! am superficial, but / never
could like man who shakes hands
or rather offers his hand for the per
tormance in listless. half-dead, fish
cold sort OF way.
| love the sort OF man who will
grip like he had a bone in his fist
and another in his back and who will
look me squarely in the eye i'm a
manner that says: I'll treat YOU
white. but If you step on my toes TT
smash your jaw"
A good, clean. firm, manly hand
shake, backed by eyes that are frank
and steady is tonic. One likes tc
meet strangers who bring that sort
OF recommendation.
But any other sort OF hand shak,
is sacrilege. better done without

Sheriff Hunter also called attention

A Product Of Ignorance.

In South Carolina, and in other

notorious fact that the people are
divided along factional lines when II

other half is responsible for the con-
dition, and all intelligent persona
know that suspicion and distrus, are
the most glaring results of illiteracy.

Observation-Disclosures
The Charleston Evening Post OBJ
jects to the recent notification sent
to the Turkish government by the
United States, in reference to the
wholesale massacre of the Armenians
by that barbarous nation. The Post
bases its objections upon the ground
that the main point of the whole
matter is that the United States has
it's own business to look after and
that is enough to keep everybody
concerned busy and prepared for
eventualities however they may
seem" 1t also contends that We
SHOULD not reach into Europe for
the sake of humanity or anything
else while we have Mexico at our
very doors, our own peculiar charge,
and no disposition to take a hand
there"
Yet, The Post admits that the
slaughter is frightful, for 1t says:
THE treatment of these poor peo-
pie, while it has become into peculiar
prominence during the war, is moth
ing new to the Turk. He has kept
his soldiers in practice with the
Armenians as live objects OF war.
Europe has been shuddering at the
massacres in Armenia for at least
thirty years"
The Post may think the United
States is not concerned with the hor-
rible butchery going on, but occupy
ing the position we do among the
world powers, when all eyes are
turned to this country for leadership
we cannot hesitate to raise our voice
in protest against the slaughter of
thousands of innocent women and
children, who are being exterminated
for Christ's sake" 1t is our proud
boast that we united with the powers
OF Europe to stay the hand of the
Boxers, when they we're committing
similar outrages in China. The hand
or Spain was also staid when the
slaughter of the Cubans was in pro.
gress. The Post intimates that we
should go into Mexico. But we have
no business there. AS President Will
son has already pointed out, the
trouble in Mexico is caused by aD
uprising of its people who have hae
no part in the government, and
that this country will not interfere
in the internal affairs OF that country
until it is demonstrated that the
PEOPLE are incapable of f-govern-
ment
The United States has never turn
ed deaf ear to the cry of the op-
pressed OF any land, and it is to the
credit OF our great President that HI
has protested in behalf OF our people
against the atrocities of the insati-
able Turk.
