For some time past The News has
been calling attention ta the blind
t'ger evil prevailing to an alarming
1 extent in our town. A few days
since, one of our leading citizens, iu
i conversation about the matter, said
; conditions were worse now in Lanj
caster as regards the illicit sale of
I liquor, than ever before in the hisj
tory of the town. But thore is relief
from the evil and it lies with those
' whose sworn duty tt is to enforce
the law. The city council of Anderson
are now after the blind tigers
and so-called clubs In that city and
have effecutally put them on the
run. We commend to the city counI
ell and our citizens generally a care-1
rul reading of tho following editorial
taken from The Anderson Intelli
gencer, which applies so well to !
present conditions in Lancaster that
j wc give it in full. Says The Intelligencer:
I
"The condition of affairs in Ander-, I
sou in reference to the situation arls- 1
ing on aecout of the illegal sale of I
liquor, is one that shoutd give serious I
concern to every man in the city. It
is not light matter to be passed over
and 'white washed' or ignored. 1
Something must he done to correct ,
the evil. If you. dear reader, do not U
believe it is a serious matter go ask a
that mother whose son has lost his t
position on account of drinking the 1
stuff sold by the Anderson blind t
tigers. Ask that mother whose son t
is living in another town trying to r
fight down the drink habit learned I
in 'My Town'?no longer?and see e
if it does not demand some serious 1 ii
thought and some drastic action on j p
the part of those who are entrusted 1
with running the city. If some . n
other mother is grieved because of ti
the downfall of her son, do you feel , n
safe on account of your son? Is ne b
not subject to the same temptation" a
May he not also fall? Will the blind e
tiger respect him on account of your o
standing, perhaps, or will he not c
rather sell to him in order to add L
respectability' to his shop? h
"Yes, it Is n serious matter. The s<
Intelligencer is glad to see that, the I1
iieu city eourcll is determined to do =
something to clear up the v'.nntton.
Will the citizens of Andersen do
lhe!r part in helping? The Intelligencer
does not wish to feel that the ,
battle is being fought by " alone. 1
Are there not others who will assist
[r creating a sentiment In favor of
t clean city morally? Mr Husiness
Yen. where do you stud? Mr. Professional
Man, where do you nfard? !
Mr Laboring Man, w nere no .vou

r< a son" What have you thought
ihout his occupation? Would you
ke lor him to do what you are doug?
Or he suliject to the tcmptaions
to which you suliject others?
"Then, are there other institu _
ions in tlie city which have not an j I
ntirely clean conscience along these I
Ines? Can a man go anywhere else j
jesides those places which have been I
aided and 'tank up" on fntoxicn- '
