It will take souse such heroic remedy to bring the white people toge: her. Such a chaotic condition as esi-ts in . South Carolina concerning the liquor law at present is just what suits Governor Tillman. He cares no more for the law, from a purely legal standpoint,.than the. men who stop express trains in the West. IV e \"ee?l A Conservative Man?Mast Have llim. These are uncertain times we live in and no man knoweth what a clay may bring forth. General Farley s&\ s that V- trouble is likely to come if cool head, conservative men of both factions are not brought to the front. Congressman McLaurin writes a letter to the Manning Times to that effect, and it behooves the thinking men of both factions to put the most conservative men . in their ranks to the front. This is the time when the best men should be put in office. It is no time to pay oft* debts of disappointment, or t? | avenge, either real or imaginary, political wrongs. We hare had t?o much blood and thunder talk, too much demagogism; we need calm, conscientious and serious men to p?ur oil on the jrat/ ere. The needs of the future generation demands it/ The agitation of the last four years has accomplished no good, when you look at the condition v of the public mind. There never has been a time in Seuth Carolina, since it has been a State, that her people have been prepared in their minds and resources to spill each other's blood, as they were at the time of the Darling nngton trageav. We hope sash may never be the case. ^ We ovre it to our children, we owe to ourselres, and our State, to banish this revengeful animus forever. No good ever comcs of it. Let each man do his duty under the existing circum;, stances, fearlessly and conscientiously, and all will be well. ? ? Prohibition With a Penalty. A great deal is being said about the present status of the liquor question in this State since the Supreme Cenrt has decided the Dispensary system uncon ' stitutional. Some of the newspapers and even Governor Tillman say that it is "free liquor; that anybody can sell liquor anywhere by simply paying the United States license. This, we think, is a great misconception. If v the court makes any one paint perfectly plain and distinct, it is that the |> act is unconstitutional, except in so far as it prohibits the sale of liquor. It | could not have held otherwise, because whether or not prohibition is i constitutional has been settled in the affirmative too long ago, and Judge Hudson and the Supreme Court following his decision make this as clear : j.- as anything1 can De maae. xney doui i say so in so many words. But while this is generally admitted, it is said < that while we have absolute prohibition against the sale of liquor no pen- : alty is prescribed, and the law is worse than a nullity. A little study and comparison of the Acts of 1892 and the decisions under that Act and the ! Act of 1893 will show that there is a ; penalty for the violation of (he law. o?_j.;? -i ?.c ?? \ i P CC^liUU XU <JL LUC 1/13UCU3A1 T AV/I/ of 1892 reads as follows: 4 *'The payment of the United States r~V special tax as a liquor seller, er notice of any kind in any place of resort, or in any store or shop, indicating that liquors are there sold, kept or given away, shall be held to be prima facie 1 evidence that the person or persons paying said tax and the parties dis- i playing said notices are sellers of in- i toxicating liquors, and unless said 1 r?ni*vmc nr navHfS are Sfillino* under 1 permit as prescribed by this Act they shall be punished as provided by this Act." \ This does not provide a punishment, ^ and it was so held by even Jud<re Gary j in the Lancaster cases, as will doubt- * m less be remembered by many of our ' readers. , u But read, in connection with this i section, section 17 of the Act of 1S93, { and we think that it is not onlv plain , j that the Legislature intended to cor- ( fe - rect the defect in the Aet of '92, but | actually did cure it. It reads thus: 9 Section 17 (1S93): "The payment of j the United States special tax as a liquor . ? ^H^Hr seller, or notice of any kind in any i f place of resort, or in any store or shop, { J / indicating that alcoholic liquors are ! \ there sold, kept or given away, shall < he held to be prima facie evidence that $ tue person or persons paving said tax < and the parties displaying such notices * rare acting in violation of this Act, and 1 unless said person or persons are selling: under permit as prescribed by this ' I Act they shall be punished by a fine not ' exceeding one hundred ($100) dollars or 1 imprisonment not more than thirty days" j It -will be seen that there is a great < k difference between the two sections as ! is shown by the italics. It is settled r then that it is unlawful to sell intoxi- ; L /,'- - eating liquors iu this State. It cannot be sold in the only way provided by the Act, for that mode of "permits'' is unconstitutional in as much as it is the Strrte itself going into the business, but. the prohibitory clause remains good, therefore, it cannot be sold at all, and anyone selling it violates Sectibn 17 +V./V A 1QQ3 o -n/1 nnAn /*rvriT7ir? XI VI tuu XIVV IWVj i*llU U^/VU tion can be punished as therein provided. It must be remembered that when one part or particular provision of an Act is declared unconstitutional, it does not mean that the icholc Act is unconstitutional. WEDDIXG BELLS AT RIDGEWAY. Mr. Robertson, of Anderson, Weds Misi Edmunds of Ridgeivay, and they L%ave for Their Ft* tare Homo in Anderson? A Church Festival at W hich Toothsome Refreshments were Serred by Charming Girls. Bidgeway, S. C., A])ril 28.?At the residence of the bride's father, on last Thursday evening, ths ceremony by which Miss Harris "VV. Edmunds became Mrs. "William Bobertson to?k place. Only a few friends were present. The parlor was beautifully decorated with evergreens and hot-house flowers, a dado of English ivy surrounded the wall, from the four corners diagonally across the ceiling were graceful gar lands, in the centre was suspended a handsome white silk parasol tastefully ornamented with bouquets of geraniums. Directly in front of the fire place was the most magnificent calla we have ever seen. It was at least five feet tall, having leaves eighteen inches in length and blooms from ten to twelve inches from tip to tip. To the soft strains of a wedding march, rendered by Miss Mace Edmunds, entered the bride and ?room, who standing directly beneath the silken canopy, were in a solemn and impressive manner made man and wife by Rev. Jabez Ferris. After congratulations were offered, the sruests were entertained with sweet music made by the skillful fingers of Dr. Provence on his guitar. The guests were invited into th-- dining room where delightful refreshments were served. The table was beautiful!j decorated with ferns, callas and gex-aniums. In one end of the hall the bride's presents were displayed, cembining the useful and the beautiful. Among them a handsome set of tea spotns from "The Baptists to their organist." The bride's costume was a soft white henrietta, stylishly trimmed with bands OX SA11Q riUDOIl %UU puiiii uc v lace, exquisitt bouquet of asparagus acuti folius and Marce halde Lavres geraniums. At the "wee stna' hours" the bride and groom, accompanied by their friends, drove to the station taking the south-bound train for Anderson the home of the groom. It is with deep regret that the friends of Mrs. Kobertson see her leave the home where she has grown up and endeared herself to all by her sweet disposition and winning ways. Among the guests were: * Messrs. Kavr Anderson, and Robertson, friends of the groom from Anderson. Mrs. Klinckscales and Mrs. Blaine, from Blythewood. Miss Nicholson, from Chester. Mrs. Ouattlebaum and Miss Utes, from Winnsboro. A notice had beeii posted for some time informing the public that the Presbyterian congregation would hare a "color luncheon and literary charades" en Friday evening. The dining r*om of Mr. and Mrs. Reid Browne presented to the quests a beatiful and inviting appearance, with its tete a tete tables covered with red, blue, white and pink cloths and flowers. The tempting viands were made more tempting by the charming waiteresses, whose dresses and caps proclaimed to which table each one belonged. After luncheon the rest or the evening was spent in guessing charades. The first was mat-ri-mony?in three acts. "Mat" was represented by a charming young lady of that name. "Ri" (rye) by one of our soberest young men. made tipsy from a bottle of rye with no Palmetto tree tkereon. For "mon(e)y"?the proceeds of the luncheon were rattled before the audience. The last was a bridal scene in which a gay widower figured as clergyman, all the time looking as if he should much have preferred the part ox groom m reality. Aiuuug tuc others were "He and she," "Reveries of a bachelor," "The Beautiful Sno(re)w." "When a man's single" represented by an old bachclor, revealing to the fair madens, in a most pathetic manner, the toil and trouble he had when his vest became minus a button. His air was so dejected, his face so expressive that were it leap year kis sawing would soon be a thing of the past.

The decision of the Supreme Court, as regards the Dispensary law, was no surprise to me. Now where are we at? The Governor says "free whiskey, no law against the sale of it." I differ with him. If the repealing clause of the bill was net affected there is no law to authorize the issuing of licenses. It is further declared, in the opinion of the Court, that the section repealing all licenses issued to the 30th of June '93 is of force.

Trn > Meaning of the Tillman-WaiteKolb Campaign, [ From Harper's Wtekly Tillmrn and His Friends,?Governor Tillman, of Soulh; Carolina, has suggested to Goreruor Waite,ot Colorado, the calling of a convention of the discontented at St. Louis for the purpose of forming a new league or party. This is not the first suggestion of the kind that has been made within a year. The motive of the people who are ready to engage in such an enterprise is usual ly vaguely stated to be hostility to "Wall Street." By "Wall Street" is meant every sound and honest finan Ciai institution iiwue wuuu v , cvcij savings bank; every insurance company; all that represents thrift, and the industry, energy aud talent that enable the thrifty to accumulate savings, to add to the material wealth of the country, to apply the discoveries of science to mechanics to the end that the achievements of the genius of the century shall make life cheaper, easier and happier to the poor as well as to the rich. It required a book to enable Mr David A. Wells to narrate the won.lorfnt ocnnrtmin ?f}?1r-VPmnTltS of a llUn- \ dred years, and it would be impossible in the space ofan editorial to catalogue even a small fraction of the benefit that all mankind, including the followers of Governor Tillman, and Governor Watte, have derived from the judicious expenditure and investment ol accumulated capital, and from its genral distribution, through loans and discounts, to business men who have youth, energy, hopefulness And honesty. The movement in which the Tillmans, Waites, Kolbs and their kind are enlisted is hostile to the prosperity of th? country, and to its further progress and develoDement. The-e people Want something for nothing. They want fiat money, in the belief that i hey can never acquire anything that i=t not cheap, forgetting, or not knowing, that when money is cheap the things I bar money buys become dear.

It will doubtless outlive tbe Tillmans and the Waiies, but in the meantime tbe best thing that can happen is the concentration of the evil. I The enemies oi tue country can oe best met and overcome when they are ' gathered in one band under acknowledged leaders, and Governor Tillman, even more than Governor Waite, is the natural leader et the people who, j mroilgn ignorance ur viciousuess, uaic I everything that promotes the welfare I of the country. i THE LATE TILLMAN WAR. The troubles that broke out in Smith Carolina, disgracing the State and (he ; country, culminating in bloodshed, the overthrow of the civil power and : the establishment of martial law, arc ' to be charged immediately to Gover- j nor Tillman, lie is the perfect fl ;wer j r\ mmi wliA ATrnvrnrhArA ! KJL llig I HIV vi ii?v.? n nvj vtvi ; ?? ??w w . throughout certain sections of the! country, are clamoring for a distribu- j tion of the property they have not earned. Governor Tillman boasts that J he and his party have overthrown the ! "oligarchy" of South Carolina. The J term "oligarchy" like lhat of "Wall; street," is indefinite and general. Gov- j eruor Tillman means to include in the j class which he dislikes the we* lth and intelligence of the State. Iije means the men whose family roots run far back into the State history, who are proud of their past, whose interests lie in good government.. Tillman has i overthrown these men, of whom Wade Hampton, who refused to court Tillmun nnr? .Tnrlorp Rrawlftv. whose course on the silver question is one of which the State will some day be proud, arc excellent specimens. He has supplanted civilization with barbarism, placed ignorance in the seats of learning, contaminated the judiciary and proclaimed war on private rights and the public credit. TWO BLOODY CONSPIRATORS Fiesh from the field of his war Vio Vkrtcf ntiVili/* epntimPTif. nf South Carolina, while the country is still listening to the echo of his incendiary speeches, while his constables and "their eniniies are still untried for the murders that are the direct consequences of the ascendency of him and his parly he invites the co-operation of Governor Waile, of Colorado, the man who ihrea'ened to wade in blood up to his horse's bridle if the bill repealing the Sherman Act shonld become a law. These two are to lead a crusade for the purification of the Government of this Republic. They are to seek to take away ail power and influence from the men who have built our railroads, our telegraph lines, our factories, who have cheapened food by lowering the cost ?f production, who uru uiu trustees ux tviuv>ys <iuu uiphans, and of the savings ?f our industrious working men. If they succeed, they are to make laws against those who lend money to the merchants, the farmers, to the pioneer, the discoverer, the projectors of lines of transportation, the men who open new territories and lay bare new sources of wealth. Tillman and Waite are to conduct a campaigii against "Wall street" in the interest of the people who will not work, of cheap money men, of rest less theorists who fancy that Government can make something out of nothing to their advantage. What kind of a republic this would be under the rule of Tillman and his party is illustrated by the barbarism which has ruled South Carolina within a month. EVERY MAN OF MEANS THREATENED. Tillman and Waite do not know how far "Wall street" extends, nor what it means. The group of speculators whose clamorous tradings fill the newspapers is not "Wall street," within the meaning of its critics, confined to New York. "Wall street" is accumulated and active wealth. Not only are *1^ Kontc orifl frncf U1C OC*VA1JqC l/uuao uum vi u?w vv luvwu*vw part of " \Vall street," but the banks also, whose customers and debtors are in every city and hamlet of the land. These "bankers whom the Tillmans hate are the men who recently patriotically came to the resctae of the Government's credit against the assaults of the Tillmans, the Waites, and all that they represent. When their new party is'formed they will gain a clearer view of what they call "Wall street."- They will learn that every city and town has its "Wall street;" that the financial and business interests of this country are one, and not many; that the man who lends money is as deeply conin nvncrmvif-'tr rvf flip man tUI U^U 1U fcUV v-. V..v who borrows as the borrower himself; that what makes for tbe profit of the East affects the profits of all other sections of the country; and they will learn, too, that the industrious aDd prosperous people of the country will not permit its civilization to be overthrown by its ignorance and its barbarism ; t'bat war upon capital cannot be waged by one section against another, but its battles must be fought in every Slate, wherever there is a merchant, or a manufacturer, or a farmer who is making his farm pay. These men in South Carolina and "in Colorado, as well a3 in New York or Bos ton, hare no idea of divorcing themselves from the capital which is helping to build up their States. TILLMAN THE LOGICAL POPULIST CANDIDATE. Il is well that Governor.Tillman has bethought himself of appealing to the people of the whole country on the record of his deeds in South Carolina. It is the frankest appeal that any Populist has made. He points to Darlington and his harrangues, and tells the country that this is what the rule of the Populist, the Communist, the Auarchist means. And so it is. whether it comes forth in its own name or in the disguise of-Democracy. It is best that it should, present itseir as a ais-1 tinctive party, and under the leader who has earned the right to command the enemies of society. Bat when he comes to try conclusions with the men who repx*csent the intelligence and progress of the country, he will find that the example of South Carolina is not contagious, and that he and his friends in Colorado, Alabama and elsewhere cannot dominate the land. The Republic ha? not turned backwards, and its people are not minded to place their interests and their Government in the hands of the idle, the reckless, the vicious and the ignorant. 1 I Rheumatism Cured in a Day.?

AN HONEST REFORMER. * j | He Is Not Afraid to Ucclare His Record I In the Legislature. (Anderson Advocate ) I As it has l.een reported that I have j turned to be an anli, which is entirely j I false, and they accuse mc of voting i against some of the important reform ' \t? l.Mtf ... M,A ujiid, nun j Jii. ij'iiiuif jlwi u\* wv/"?-fit oil the voters of South Carolina and especially of Anderson County, who elected tnc to represent them in the legislature, I feci that 1 should have published in the columns of your valuable paper those bills that we differed on, though with all due respect for those who have differed with me, I will state the bills. The first bill was in ?92, after the appropriation bill was , prepared, it was amended bv placing ; a half mill State levy on the people. I worked against it and fought it un- j til the last, and then they ran it over ( mc I did it just because I knew the' pressed condition of the poor laboring i class of people and the scarcity of, rnmirn- f lir>ir.yrwl t!i<? linilSf liof if) ?uv*.v; a. wo3vvfc l,,w ? " j concur with the senate and to volun-. tarilv, free of any charge, stay five days and to paso a new appropriation bill. The sccond bill was the dispensary bill I objected to this for I thought j it was wrong for any State to say to a ! private citizen that -'vou shall not sell anything, and we will go into the business ourselve-i." I saw where it was g?ing to ruu to; I also saw that it would form a monopoly on liquor. I couid not ignore the vote of my peo- j pie and say by my vote that they didn't; have sense enough to know what they j wanted, when I told my people on ; the stump that if the majority of them did vote for prohibition that I would uphold it in the house. Now, Mr. Editor, I never can rote i for any law which will prohibit any \ or our private cuizens nom ouyiujj in j the cheapest markets or from selling in the highest markets, when such a thing is allowed to be sold or bought in the State. The thir.l was the Redisricting bill. I thought it was vrrong and dangerous to the i\form movement. I voted againstit. Farther, Mr. Editor, two black districts had been laid off to give to the darkies s > that they could have representation which there are about forty thousand majority of negroes in South Carolina today, and I thought it dangerous to get them aroused in politics. I thought it was wrong to pick out the black townships all around Charleston where there is scarcely a white man in it and throwing it on '"?? * - ^ ~ r unanesion, wuicu win uu iiiipvasiuic for them to elect a white man to represent them any more, and I looked at it, and all done* just because Charleston differs with us about our governor. I would not stoop to vote to put anything on the white men of our State that I would nut be willing to put the very same on our part of the State. The tourih uill was the public printing bill. Now, Mr. Editor, with all due respect tor the Register, when the Bryan boys sent in a printed bill, ottering to do it so much cheaper than the Register, a9 I felt that I was simply an agent for ray people, 1 was forced to vote for the Bryan boys. X could not HIIJ1"U IU kiuipiy YUlC UCI/WCUU OIA aiiu nine thousand dollars of my people's money away. I bave not been able to get the exact amount it is, but I know of several articles that the Jiegisieicharsed $1.25 for doing which the the Bryan boys offered to do for 72 cents. N?w, E.Jttor, it lliey had aent around i\i ti?? house that the editor of the Rfjisla needed help to run hia paper, u,. inwmbcr in the house would havesnbso.* ued more willingly than I would, and I wonlJ have gone to tny own pocket t? have paid, but when it came to 7?tiiig my people's money awav in that way 1 cannot endorse it, which I was jnst simply representing my people, which you kno.v I raid on the stump that I would dj all 1 coald to ?rive tnv people reiief in ev ery way, and if my actions in the house do show I hat I have done so and have not worken for the poor laboring' clase of people's interc*-, I want them to show it by their votes in the next election. Mr Editor I will also say I am i.i tator of a straight primnry so as to let the poor people have a voice in who is elected. Also I am in favor of a farmer tor governor, I do not believe in auy caucus taking any snap judgement on any candidal. Let the poor class have a say to; tney are the class that should be" legislated for; the man that has got money can take caic of himself. Mr Editor, I dislike very much to come oat in print and publish bills that land my friends difler on, but I was forced to so.

' SAILH^rS^ARS. 0ns of His Experiences/ For thirty-eight years Capt. Loud followed the sea, most of that time as master of a vessel, and upon retiring from the water was appointed by the Secretary of the United States Treasury to superintend the seal fisheries In Alaska, which position he held five years. He relates one experience as follows: "For several years I had been troubled with general nervousness and pain in tne region of my heart. My greatest affliction was sleeplessness; it was almost Impossible at any time to obtain rest and sleep. Having seen Dr. Miles' remedies advertised I began using Nervine. After- taking a small quantity the benefit received was so great that I was positively alarmed, thinking tiie remedy contained opiates which would finally be Injurious to me; but on being assured by the druggist that it was perfectly harmless, I continued it together with the Heart Cure. Today* I can conscientiously say that Dr. Miles' Restorative Nervine-and Hew Heart Cure didmore for me than any tiling I had ever taken. I had been treated by eminent physicians^ in New York and San Francisco without benefit. I owe my present good health to the; judicious use of these most valuable remedies, and heartily recommend them to all afflicted as I was.'.'?Capt. A* P. Loud, Hampden, Me.
