P'::- : : .t What Others Say. The Six-Shooter.?an effort is biding made in the Legislature to modify the law against carrying pistols. Some claim that the penalty is too severe, and operates against the execution of the law. The discussion in the Senate is said to have developed considerable opposite n to any law whatever against carrying this deadly weapon. The opposers of the law base their argument on the "personal liberty dodge" already worn threadbare in ~a j._ i.u ~ tne interests ui me uamvi There is a fitness in things when the saloon and six-shooter are supported by the same argument, since the same class who contend for the "personal liberty" to go armed with the pistol also want the "personal liberty" of the saloon. If the law-abiding citizen ever under any circumstances needs the pistol it is when the necessity is forced upon him by the class who ought not to be trusted with such deadly weapons. The best protection the State can give those who need and deserve it is to disarm those whose lawlessness makes the pistol dangerous to society. The peaceable and law-abid-| ing citizen, however, does not seem to be the man the "personal liberty" statesmen are so anxious to protectThe man whose cowardice and vicious habits make him rely upon the sixshooter for protection (?), seems to have in the estimation of the six-slioot 1? er advocates a monopoly uj. me ngui to "personal liberty." No one who has carefully observed the difference between the state of society in this State before and after the law went into operation can deny the beneficial effects of the law. We do not advocate unreasonably extreme penalties, but the punishment should be sufficient to make the law effective. At this writing the Senate has already passed an amendment so modifying the law as to make imprisonment discretionary with the jury. This may or may not pass the House. But of one thing we feel assured, the beneficial results of the law since it has been in force have been so great, and the sentiment in favor of the prohibition has grown so strong, that the time will never come when it can be repealed. " We join the St. Louis Advocate in its opposition to the entire class of hymn-books of which the "Gospel Songs" is a fair representative. These wishy-washy doggerel songs and choruses are taking the spirituality out of our services, and worship is losing its true flavor. We spent half an hour not long since, while waiting the com ing 01 a CUIigregttUUll, iu through one of the collections, and were surprised to find how thoroughly worthless it was. Not one in ten ol the new hymns had the least merit. The only redeeming quality of the collection was that it contained thirty or forty of the old hymns which have stood the test of a hundred years. How any one acquainted with the hymns of the Wesleys, and Watts, and Cowper, and a few other names, can tolerate such stuff" as these so-called popular hymn-book editors and publishers provide for us, we cannot un derstand. The evil has acquired greatest headway in the Sunday-schools. The secret of the matter is that there is money in the publishing of these new books. m t B The Christian, if called in^the providence of God, should cheerfully expose his life to danger of death by fire or water or wind or the malice of men, r. ' . ' in order to save human life from death; but the right to intentionally destroy human life will have to be round away tram tne exampje aim teachings of his Master, Jesus Christ. jV tr ' COLUMBIA & GREENVILLE DIV CONDENSED 6CHEDULE.
