He ts "President Roberts, of the ennslvaia,(railroad) gave a good anwer .to the hotels and merchantE 'o Chiago when they asked the rail roadirto give a lower:rate than thie one hei iisltors at the World'u ~Fair. Said he: 'Will you give a cheaper rate at your hotels and will you mark .down your goods for the benefit of the visitors? Then he said something.: The disposition -to have the other fellow to do the work and ui To getthe profits is a part of the pro. gam handed down from generation to generation since tbe fail of poor old Adam." -Now there Is just lots of truth in the above. We always want the othei fellow to do something, but when it somesto a divide of the profits, or th' honors, we always want to be counted in. There is just a little bit too much of that sort of thing among a greal many people. SARE jONE$ ON( REBOADs. Rey. Sam Jones writes the. Atlanta Journal from Pennsylvania on rail. - rads and legislatures. He says up there where the railroads are fat and -sleek the legislatures "can afford to regulate and make their divide, but in Georgia we must keep off of our rail roads until trafflc increases, and wealth Is aecumulated by them. A country is never more prosperoua than its rail roads, and after all, what would Penn sylvania or Georgia be without their railroads? Let the Legislature of Georgia tackle the Dog star or the aurora borealis, and let She railroads -alone,at least until some ofthem-can get out.of the hands of a receiver. These law makers make many laws that are fatherless, or are like the little girl (the child of a ~traveling man) who was playing with a kitten; she said, 'Kitty, Kitty, I do love you; you are so sweet: -and Kitty, I know your mama. Old Passyi?syour mama, and I love Old fussy; but Kitty, I never saw youi papa. I speck your papa is a traveling man.' So many of the bills intro duced by the average legislator, the best thatecan be said of them is tha1 Stheir papa is atraveling man." What Mr. Jones says of Georgia may be said with equal force about South Carolina. We believe nearly every road in .the State is now in the hands of a receiver and none are mak ing any money, and yet our legislatorn seem beset on squeezing them stifl na.-#re*. Well, the bill has passed, and no doubt it will involve the State in -till mir3' ltigation. The appropria tion bill this year has an Item of $2,500 for lawyera'feesir the railroad-css, and we do not say it is too much but It might have been saved. Itis too-late now. The bill will be given a triaL The salary reduction bill has been continued to the next session of the Legislature. Just as well or better to have continued it indefinitely. On the bill to regulate the sale of liquor, passed by our Legislature, Sen ator Sllgh and Representatives Duncan and Hardy voted for it. Mr. Blease did'not vote,. as he was paired.

A Careful Review of the Work Done-In creased Taxation, Increased Ezpendi tures, Increase of Ofeers, All in the Name of Reform -Hard Words Used-No-Salaries Reduced And the State to Engage in the Liquor Business Great. is Reform. [Correspondeniee The-Rerald and News.] CoLUMBIA, S.-C. Dee. 26--I vncvei faae,frely translatedinto ourown verna cular,_means that a drunken man will speak the truth. And so last Friday night one of the"boys"who was taking hisChristmas in advance spoke only the literal truth When he said that the term "Reform Party," as applied to the dominant element in this State, was a misnomer, and that tney should be dubbed the "ruination Party." It is a sad truth that the General Assembly. which has justfinished its first session has certainly exhibited most -destructive tendencies, and has not "reformed worth a cent. There is the "salary reduction bill" gone where the woodbine-twineth, the whangdoodleroreath and the campaign howler rejoices for his first born, is the answer that echoes through the now empty corridors of the State House. Where is prohibition-killed in the house of its friends and a travesty substituted for it, is the reply that is sadly heard as the tread of departing feet dies atray in the distance. And where, oh, where is the much talked of "reduction of taxation?" It comes in the shape of an increased levy for State purposes, and our over burdended taxpayers,, many of whom find. it hard work to dodge the sheriff, will pay, for the year 1893, one mill -more to the State than they did in 1892. "Reform," as defined by the majority of the S,ate - Legislature, consists in harassing the; great corporations by vexatious and arbitrary legislation, and in destroying the liquor business in the hands of individuals and mak ing the State the.vender of intoxicants. Truly the mountain has- labored and brought forth a very, very small mouse. But :ci bono What is done is done and& it only remains for rne to oheromiele briefly the leadingen s of the closing week of the session. Theweekopenied with a battle royalon -'rohibition' ih theSenate. The '-Evans dipnoy bMu1 was taken up as an mendmentto the"Roper-Nettles bill", and inthis.shape was forced throughia second reading. 'The minority, under the skilled leadership of that able and accomplshed'parliamentarian, Senator Smythe, of Charleston-ably seconded bf* his colleague, Senator Bust, and by Senator Sloan, of Richland, and others -made an all night fight of it, and attacked the bill with eloqjuence and logici that could not be answered. But it was all in vain. The fiat had gone forth, and the royal command was obeyed. In speaking againist the Evansamiend ment Senktor Smythe said he could not~- see how the prohibitionist whc bases his opinion on moral grounds could vote for a bill to. transfer the traffic from one channel to another. It was not right to embark the State in such speculation. The cry of this Legislature is, Down with monopoly. Yet this is a monopoly of the worst kind. We are all going in as partners to sell liquor. It is paternalism. Here we are creating a little army of governs ment employees. By this bill we send the State of South .Carolina into the market to buy liquor on credit. Senator Buist made a three-hour -speech discussing almost everything~ under the sun. Several Senators rose to points of order, asking that the Senator be allowed to speak sitting down, and inquiring if a member could be regarded as present when he was asleep. The amendment. passed Its third reading in the Senate Friday night at 8.30 o'clock and then the fight was transferred to the House. There, as in the Senate, the antis- madeastubborn but fruitless fight. The speech of Mr. Sullivan, of Char leston, against the amendment was very funny. He said that it reminded him of the Black Code. It was filled with nothing but persecution and punishment. Under it you had to he a villain or an angel. If you looked at a bottle unsealed you were a villian. 1: you buy one from the State sealed, yor are an angel. Under it liquor could only be purchased in bottles. He hoped the Legislature would not compel. bim to carry his drink around in his pocket. Citizen Josh Ashley made a char acteristic speech against the bill. He had come pledged for prohibition, but if anybody would show him any pro hibition he would eat it. The amend ment was .twenty-eight sections long. He was no lawyer but he knew that b courts would decide in ten minutes tft no such lengthy amendmet could e made on the spur of the minute. here was no prohibititionin it. Under it you could not-only buy liquor, but thNy compelled you to buy a whole bottle in order to get any. Mr. Thomas, of Columbia, gave the most forcible argument against the passage of the amendment. He said that on account of its great length it was practically a new bill and it had not been read three times in the House as was required of all bills bay thle Con stitution. The bill had not been printed, thus preventing all opportunity to con sider it. The bill did not relate to but one sibject and that subject was not expressed in the title, as required by the Constitution. The arfiendment was passed by a vote of 57 to 30, as follows: Yeas-Barry, Breazeale, Buist, Car penter, Cox, Covington, Dendy, J. T. Duncan, Edwards,.

Mr. Nettles, the prohibition leader made the following statement; "I do Dot favor this bill, but, believiag it tc eense system, and a long step towards prohibition--because by taking the vast amount of capital invested in liquors the great influence it now has will be greatly weakened-I vote for it, hoping that soon we may be able, the capital of whisky removed, to enact.a prohibition law, such as the House bill fcr which this bill was substi tuted." About 4 o'clock Saturday morning there was some consternation when it was found that the first page of the bill, containing the enacting words, was missing from lhe engrossing de partment where it was being made ready for ratification. Some members were quick to cry thief, but the miss ing page was soon found where it had been inadvertently left by one of the clerks who had been copying it. At 6.30 a. m. the bill was ratified by the two houses, consisting of about a dozen Representatives and a score of Senators. The Governor signed the act Saturday morning, and it became a law. The bill provides that the State shall take exclusive charge of the liquor traffic and invest $50,000, to be bor rowed, in the business. Within thirty days after the approv al of the act the Governor shall ap point a State Commissioner, believed by him to be an abstainer from intox icants, who shall purchase all the liquors that are to be sold. He shall live in Columbia and hold office for two years. His salary shall be $1,800 and he shall have a book-keeper at $1,200 and such other assistants as the Board of Control may deem necessary. There shall be a State Board of Con trol, consisting of the Governor, Comp troller General and Attorney General, who shall make rules and regulations to govern the sale of liquor by the Commissioner. County dispensaries are' then to be established for the sale of liquor under certain conditions. They shall beunder the control of county boards. There shall b., only one dispenser in each county and he shall be appointed by the county board of control by appli cation. Ten dispensers are allowed in Charleston and three in Columbia. There are stringent provisions to prevent persons selling or even having in their possession any liquor not pur chased -from a dispersary. A dispen ser shall not sell less than one-half pint or more, than five gallons to any person at any one time. Stringent rules are prescribed for the obtaining of liquor from a dispen,ser, such as the signing of a- plper that the person is so many years old, lives at such and such a place, that be is not a minor and that he is not in the habit of using liquor to excess. The act is to take effect July 1, 1893, and liquor licenses now ine force will be continued t. that time upon pay ment of one-third theannual license fee. The State Commissioner is allowed to charge a profit of fifty per cent, on all liquors sold, for the . benefit of the State. On Thursday Messrs. J. A. Sligh, of Newberry-H. R. Thomas, of Sumtier, and D. P. Duncan, of Union, were elected railroad commissioners. Col. Duncan and Mr. Thomas are members of the old board. The elec tion of Mr. Duncan was a surprise, a. it was thought that Yeldell, of Edge field, Walter, oT Orangeburg, or Stan land, of Berkeley, would get the third place. The election of Messrs. Sligb and Thomas was a forgone conclusion and they got in on the first ballot. Mr. Yeldell's defeat was due to the fac] that the members had come to the b lief that Edgefield had gotten enouj of the political pap. Otherwise itis . lieved that the Governor's lieutenani would have been elected. All the members are prommnent Alliancemen, and the result abiowi that the Alliance is still' a power in the land. M A TBOAD MEN IN POLITICS. yNpipos of the'new railroad law i will be interesting to note the attitude of the railroad em ployes of the State toward it. Last Thursday night the3 held a meeting in this city, at whici some 400 men were present from differ ent parts of the State. Nearly all ol them had. been Tillmanitas and sup. orters of the present administra tion. They made red hotspeeches and decided to invite all laboring men t< join in organizing' "The Industrial Union:of South Carolina." A commit. tee was appointed to meet later and draft a constitution and by-laws, aftei which the union will be organized tc fight the administration. Resolutions were adopted condem ning the Wilson railroad law as inimi cal to all railroad corporations ii South Carolina, affecting .more es pecially the working men, and declar ing tbat there is a general dispositior on the part of the present administra tion to work injury to the industrial pursuits of South .Carolina, which ii turn affects the employers and em ployes alike, and, if persisted in, meani ruin to the State. The law is de nounced as class legislation and intend ed.more particularly to injure the rail roads. The bill to provide for the forfeiture of the charter of any corporation char tered under the Jaws of this State whenever such corporation shall refuse to pay the taxes as assessed is anothei obnoxious ad min istration measure thal passed the House and would have gone through the Senate, bad it not beet for the fact ihat it did not come up t< a third reading until five hours before the time that tueLegislature adjourned, Even then sons~ of the administratiot men tried to put it through, but mios1 of the S.enator. were tired .nd gladi3 welcomed a moi'ti.e to co za .ne all the bills that were still ou th e calenda: until nex t s;sion. It was admitted on the floor of the House that the nii was mainly aimne at the railroads, being intended to pre vent them from appeating to the Fed eral courts. The bill was so manifestl3 tyrannical that several reformers ex pressed themselves against it. One of the big features of the sessiox is the increase of the State tax lev3 from four and a half mills to five and a half. The manner in which it was raised i one of the curiosities of the Legisla ture. The House was strongly in favo: of a five-mill levy and it was stated by the ways and means committee and the chairman of the finance committee that it would be sufficient to meet the expenses, and at first every proposition from the Senate to increase it was voted down, but during the closing hours of the session, the Senate still in sisting on the increase, the House either had to recede from its position or prepare a new supply bill, and this would have involved five days more legislation. The result was a back down on the part of the Houase, notwithstanding the strenuous protests of Josh Ashley, Cole. Blease an?d others. Citizen Josh offered to stay the additional time without y v, but in this be had nc bakers. He also said that the extra t:ime would cost only $5,000, while the additional half mill on the taxes of the people would amount to $84,000. Mr. Blease made an earnest protest against agreeing to the amendment, sayig that he for one could not disre gard the pledges of retrenchment and reform that be made on the stump. During the House debate on the dis pensary bill there there was.an excit ing incident. Representative Perry, of Greenville;, said that it appeared tc Ihim that there was a deal between brewery men and the prohibitionista Mr.Netls,of Clarendon, asked if Ihe meant to connect him with any Mr. Perry's reply was: I ain't going to take that back. "Then the gentleman lies" shouted Mr. Nettles. "And you tell a d-n lie, you scoun drel" answered Mr. Perry. There was a hurried rush of severa Ciiorcl Blackman A Boston Boy's Eyesight 3aved-Perhaps His Life By Hood's Sarsaparlla-Blood Pot. soned by Canker.

Two members rose and said that the dignity of the House had been violated, and the Speaker replied that he had done all he could and that it remained for the House to do what it chose to. Shortly afterwards Mr. Perry apolo gized to the House for the unparlia mentary language he had used, and after the debate Mr. Nettles followed suit. Neither of the gentlemen apolo gized to the other. Charleston rejoices in her narrow escape from what has been called the "Dennis iniquity," a bill to change the boundary li ies of Berkeley so as t take in a portion of Charleston and give Charleston a part of Berkeley, and to change the county seat of Berkeley from Mt. Pleasant to a more central part of the county. The Charleston delegation made a hard fight against this, but were badly defeated in the House. There were loud lamentations which are now changed into shouts of joy on account of the bill having met the same fate in the Senate as the charter-forfeiture bill-continued until next session on account of being so low down on the calendar. The General Assembly was in ses sion thirty-three days and adjourned at 7.15 o'clock Saturday morning, hav i been in session all Friday night. ut 200 acts were ratified. It is said that the lie never was passed between members inside the hall until this session. In answer to Senator Buist's ques tion, "That makes the State practi cally a liquor dealer?" Senator John Gary Evans of fiken, answered: "Cer tainly, there's no use chewing words about it." LAWS OF LoC~AL INTEBURT. Tha following bills of interest to Newberry were passed and enacted into law.
