The Press and Banner. BY HUGH WILSON. Wednesday, Oct. 7, 1891. Twelve [Pages. "Printer** Ink." We have been a reader of tills publication for several months. It Is issued by Geo. P. Powell & Co., and claims to be printed in the Interest of newspapers and newspaper advertisers. In our opinion its distinguishing feature is, the persistent and continued effort to bring the country press into public disrespect, and the efforts which that paper mokes to disparage the value of country newspapers as an advertising medium, together with the prices which they offer, nil against the country press. For some time the Press and Banner has adopted the plan of excluding .-ill patent medicine advertising, and more recent ly we have concluded to accept no advertisements from advertising agency?though to this last rule, we reserve the right to make exceptions m special cases. Our experience has been, that we cannot consistently give any advertiser undue preference in the matter of position. In the case of other acceptable foreign advertisements, it is seldom that a price is offered which Is sufficient to warrant the trouble of proving the claim and complying with all the conditions, while their payments have often been unsatisfactory. The swindlers who propose to cure incurable diseases with their nostrums can get no spac? in these columns at any price. Our experience has been such as to convince us of the inadvlsability of taking foreign advertisements, and hence very few of such contracts are entered into by us. Foreign advertisers, with their ugly cuts, discourage home advertisers. If the local or editorial endorsement of medicines, about which the editor knows no good,'are excluded and good reading matter Is put In the place, the circulation of the ^aperwlll increase, and increased circulation always Increases the advertising patronage, hnth as to amount of pay and amount of pa tronage. l,eavirg out the convictions of right and wrong, we believe as a matter of fact, that this newspaper has realized a great benefit by excluding advertisements of disreputable medicines. % If the plan of refusing foreign advertising Is adopted no printer need ;care for the misrepresentations of Howell's Directory, and whether.he takes foreign advertisements or not, no printer need go to the expense of advertising for custom which is worth nothing, If secured. We do not care what report Rowell's Directory may give of our circulation. The fact is. In reply to one of their notes in which a prepaid envelope was sent, we told them to make our circulation to suit themselves. They are perfectly welcome to set us down as having no circulation atall, if it suits their purpose better. No More Running' About mm rmoners. Governor Tillman ordered the slnyer of Mayor Henneman to be sent buck to Spartan, burg. If there Is one thing more represcnlienslble than another, it is a sheriff dodging about with a prisoner to save him from tho hands of the mob. A little self-assertion, and a fearless discharge of duty on the part of his custodian is the prisoner's best safe guard. The mob will not likely attack a jail where the Jailer Is known to be a man who will discharge his duty. The Legislature ought to cnact a law requiring the Governor to declare the ofliee of any sheriff vacant who allows a prisoner to Ho lvnohpd Running about from place to place, to save a prisoner. Is a reflection on the good name of the State, and the Governor did right In sending the negro bacfc to Spartanburir. If the sheriff discharges his duty his prisoner will not be lynched. There need be no fear that the Jury will fall to convict hiin on proper testimony in the Courts. It Is the duty of the Juries and the Judges to pass upon the case, and although the negro may deserve Infant death, the good name of the State requires that ho be executed under the forms of law. Patent Sides. \\ e hhk me auemiou *ji any cuuun; ui?ur cr who may want a patent side to the extra pages which we distribute with the Press and . Banner. Two pages are printed by the Anderson Intelligencer, and a more complete collection of selections, or more acceptable pages were never sent to our subscribers. Without exception, every one who has spoken to us has been delighted with it. These pages having pleased our subscribers so well, we feel like commending them to any brother editor wlio feels disposed to use a patent outside. For any South Carolina printer we think the Anderson Intelligencer pages would be most acceptable, and better suited to the tastes and desires of the people than any sheets thai we have seen, and any editor who may be contemplating the patent outside might lind it to his advantage to consult that ollice. II anybody should criticise the quality or the size of the paper, we would say that ollice uses the paper which we furnish. What Should We Do? We are In receipt of a request to publish certain matters of Interest to a corporation In another county, to which request is appended the information that the sender does not wish to pay anything for it. The article in question is on the border line, and we are hardly able to decide whether it Is properly reading or advertising matter, but as the parties most Interested are unwilling to pay anything, we do not think we arejustilied in Incurring the expense of setting the type. If the party most interested Is not willing to pay, why should we pay? In the Positive. Correspondents in writing for this paper will pleaso omit all such expressions as "we are sorry," "we regret," "we are pleased.'" The public does uot care a continental red cent for anybody's weeping or anybody's rejoicing. The day of the professional weeper and the professional rejoicer has passed. The public want the news.

THE LICENSED BAR, A TOLL GATE TO HELL, TO THE POOR HOUSE, AND TO THE PRISON. An Agreement Willi Dritlli ami a. Covenant With Hell?Christ Conic to Destroy, Xot to Herniate Evil. The Iowa Methodists do not believe in praying "Lead us not iuto temptation" and then voting to place saloons in towns to tempt their young men. At their Conference in Lies Moines last week they passed the following resolutions unanimously: The I)t*s Moines conference reaffirms its devotion to the principles and policy of prohibition, believing It to bo the only effective method of dealing with the rum tratllc. As Christ came not to regulate but to destroy the works of the devli, we believe that destruction instead of regulation oi the liquor tratllc is the only policy which Christains can consistently indorse. We beileve that the rum tratllc Is entitled to no more protection or legal status by lin/mcA (lion iu ih/ifr iircnn ntwl miiriloi* W'ft maintain the license of the evil is an agreement with death and a covenant with hell. We deprecate the attempt of any party to reinstate the legalized saloou iu our state, and maintain that such party Is an enemy of the home, the church and the state, and In alliance with all the dangerous elements that menace the purity of the home and the safety of the commonwealth. We maintain that party alliance with the outlawed saloon is rank treason against the state. We deuounee the attempt ot any party to cripple and obstruct, the enforcement of the prohibitory law, and then on the ground of non enforcement demand the repeal of said law. We protest against, the policy of special executive clemency towards the violators of ttie prohibitory law and respectfully suggest that it is thesworn duty or our chief executive to enforce said law rather than its violation, and then insist on its repeal bccause it Is not enforced. We cannot endorse any party that propose, as a temperance measure, to build toll utiles to the Jails, the almshouse, the penitentiary, the gallows and hell, in the shape of license laws. We demand an impassable wall instead of a toll gate. We believe it monstrous mockery to pray "Thy kingdom come," and then vote tor t he devil's mightiest agency, the licensed saloons. We insist in the present orlsis our politics and our religion be ihoroughly ml.yid and "well shaken be lore using.*' We pledge our moral and political support, to the party that stands for the malntainence and enforcement ot the prohibitory law, and Invite the co-operation of all home-loving and law-abiding citizens, regardless ot previous party affiliations. We commend the Iowa State Temperance alliance for its dilligent work in this cause, and in its effort to enforce j the prohibitory law, and agree with It, that I prohibition, as Involved In this campaign, is I not a matter of mere party politics, but aques-1 lion att'eeting the dearest interest of society? the moral and religious life of the people as peace and prosperty of tho home. And as a moral and religious duty wo lay it on the hearts and consciences of all honest men of all parties to work and vote to save the homes of Iowa from the curse of the legalized liquor tralllc, and to this end we pledge to the alliance our cordial co-ooeratlon.

ALLIANCE MEETING, Nothing Startling --- Tlio A post I os IInvi' no Xew Revelations?The "I'lnn" In Innocent of Any Harm. Ilrrnn<)c there can he no Reasonable IIo]?e for a Siili-Trennir.v?It Serves to Itoost Office Seekers. However. The quarterly meeting of the Alliance was addressed last Friday in the Court House by Lecturers Joseph L. Kelt, and J. S. Graves. The drift of their speeches was to show the advantages of co-operative stores, and the great benefits to be derived from a faithful ..Iin.ri.i>/\ ilm /irflAt* whinli Ktiirti-il nnt with liiet> aims and noble purposes. As far as we have learned the meeting was without special interest." No new ideas or propositions were developed, and no new mischief whs concocted. The apostles had received no hew revelations and the meeting was rather monotonous, in that their speeches were old ones, warmed over. ft. now looks as If the ordor was getting hack on Its original platform, which is as good as human ingenuity could contrive. The Alliance, when it-sticks to the practl: cal business of benefiting its members, and is not led oIT Into politics or unconstitutional acts, always wins. It beat the jute trust out of its boots. Recently, in Greenville County, the ginneries took a line of action which the Alliance thought was not fair and against their Interest. The Alliance stood Arm against the ginneries until they conquered the fight. The Alliancemen in this county wanted a bank, and they established it, and so it has been in every instance where practical methods, in every day life, was tackled, the Alliance has been victor. But backwoods people a thousand miles from any money centre, and with no special training In finances, under the leadership of an ignoramus, undertakes to dlctato the financial policy of the country, they will fall. The idea of advocating any "plan" which will furuish free money to the citizen who has nothing to sell or exchange for It, will go for naught. That "plan" is merely political, and has for, Its sole objoct the preferment of some office hunter. There Is- to-day millions of dollars lying idle, In the vaults of the money centres, and all we have to do to get as much of It as we A ?- A 1-- .1.1 *~ Willi I. IN, lO II1HKC MUIIJCblllUK IAJ IIICIC are enough idle dollars to-day to buy many times over all the products that we can make. Any idea that money will be given out without value received Is a mistaken one. Any Idea that the "plan" will ever secure a "Sub-treasury" Is fallacious: 1st. Because, there will not be more than forty or fifty members of the lower house of Congress who would vote for it. 2d. If the House of Representatives should pass the hill, the senate would kill It, as not more than a dozen Senators, out of eightyfour, would vote for it. 3d. If the House and the Senate should pass the bill the Presldent.would veto it. 4th. If the House and the Senate should pass the bill, and the President should sign It. the United States Court would decree the law unconstitutional. 5th. If It should he coi^ended that the Courts would be re-orznnlzed, if a majority of Congress and the President should favor the law, n sufficient answer to that proposition would be: The Judtres of the United States Courts are appointed for life, and caunot bo deprived of tbelr office except by impeachment, and conviction of Improper conduct. With this view of the question before our eyes, what's the use of worrying? Tills newspaper will loss no sleep at all on the question, but we will continue to depend in the future, as in the past., on our own individual effort for any success that may come to us. Having no hope or aspiration for public office of any kind, we can afford to express our convictions that 110 harm will corpe to the country because of the local "sub-treasury" craze, or the urging of "something bettor." From the beginning of the world down to the present time, experience has proven that any agitation is better than stagnation, and, as the leaders of the "plan," or "something better," have many followers who are sincere In the belief and confident In the hope that money may be made as. plentiful as oak leaves, by act of Congress. Instead of by their Individual effort, to earn It. we think the whole country might welcome the agitation as one which can do no harm, and which can have no greater effect than the cast ing down of one man and the raising np of another. A little healthy rotation In office, and a little chance in the office-holders Is good for the people. Rotation in officc prevents corruption, and stimulates faithfulness to the public trust. As the "plan," or "'something better," is utterly and absolutely harmless?no matter how absurd?let us all rsloice that the pollticaljleadcrs have devised nothing which can effect, or which can possibly bring mischief. Let them go into the political fight with "the plan," or "something better," emblazoned on every banner. Let them make these propositions which are positi vely more absurd than the old cry of "fortJ* acres and a mule." Let tjiem grow eloquent in their pleas for vot-es and in their protestations of a willingness to pass a law which will do away with hard times and set at naught the saying of our Saviour, that "the poor you have always with you." But let the readers of the Press and Banner not loss their heads. Let them not forget tbat the promises and hnnr>s which are held out In t he wimnnlirns by ttie ambitious politician, arc never realized. Let them not forget that no politician In tills vule of tears can open to them any elysion Ileitis, or point to them an easy road to the achievements of those luxuries and splendors for which the whole human race is daily struggling, and in which struggle the best efforts of thousands go tor naught. While the winning of an olllce by public favor is of the greatest importance to the candidates and their kindred, yet to the great mass ol the people, and to the great majority of our readers, it matters not one cent, who gets the prize. As a prominen t citizen lately said, that no man who was elected to the Legislature on an Issue was ever worth a cent in Influencing Legislation, so 110 man who may be elected to congress ou as ridiculous aproposltion as that of issuing free money to every man who needs it. will likely have no more influence than the weight of his own vote in passing any such bill as writes the ridicule everywhere.
