Stat* Constable and Illicit Llquoi Dealer Killed. I John Bennett Cornwell,State constable,am "Little" George Howard, Buspected of Bellini x liquor illicitly, were shot In a fight nea Greenville one day last week. Both men diet on Thursday. Constable Cooley, of Honei Patb, was wounded at tbe same time, and It 1 ? *J *? *kA fo?oi ahnf at Hnward. M1U UO UIou IUO law* ouw These deaths are a result of the effort which are being made by ilqnor dealers to de f ty the law. The lawfully appointed State constable found men In the woods with a wagon an< team, and liquor was found near by. Thi seizure of the liquor and the arrest of person pposed to be engaged in the sale of llquo was the cauie of the trouble. The Slate of South Carolina prescribes thi mode by wbloh liquor sales are to be made and appoints authorized persons to sell it But, enoouraged by those who dislike the re strictlons on the sale of liquor, and in thi hop* of making large profits for themselves certain persons will run the risk of the penal ties for violating the law. The llqaor, in this Instance, was fonnd ii the neighborhood of a factory village, whsri it was unlawful to sell it. The question now la.musttbe laws ofSoutl Carolina be modified so as to suit the pleas nre of those who would disregard the publli r? - N ? welfare? 8bould oar laws be modified so a to allow whiskey wagons to peddle lntoxlcat log liquors through tbe country! It occurs to us that tbe proper autborltta should enforce tbe law. When moonsblner and blind tigers can bulldoze tbe Legislature we are at a low state of civilization. Tbea moonshiners shot respectable officers of tb< law, and If the State of South Carolina 1 worthy of ber name, she will enforce he laws. We see by the papers that the frlendi of Howard are dangerous men. Ib the Stati of South Carolina afraid of "dangerous' citizens who violate her laws. Watch thi vote* of the next General Assembly. Eltbe peaceable and law-abiding citizens must rule or else they must be terrorized by the mob li its unlawful capacity. Waiting for Sa?estloni. Senator Appelt, of Marlon, It seems, Is yield ing something to the liquor element. He ha prepared a bill which be will submit, to .tak tbe place of tbo present dispensary law. A far as we know, tbere has been no deman< from the friends of the law for Its repeal . Any suggestion for any change In the lav should be received with a degree of caution We believe, too. that the News and Conrler fa ore Senator Appelt's bill. And everybod: knows tbat that paper flavors nothing whtcl strengthens, or makes better, the die pen Bar; law. Accepting the Invitation for anggei tions, we suggest tbat Senator Appelt's-blll b promptly and carefully laid away In th waste basket. Any bill which uoiumoia o Charleston, Spartanburg or Greenville pro ^ poses ?r supports In reference to tbe llquo business should recalve tbe same careful am prayerful consideration that we suggest b given to 8enator Appelt's bill. ^ On Top. And now 8tateLiquor Commissioner Doutb It comes ont on top. His former accusers nov think tbelr charges bave not been proven and he Is reinstated in office. Tbe pity 1 that he Bbould bave been charged with mis doing. Let tbe Legislature investigate th< whole matter, and let ub know tbe facts. Ij v the storm that was raised against Doutbi ( Injustice has been done to blm, if he Is Innc cent of evlldolng, and his former accuser now are satisfied with tbe correctness of bl official acts. We congratulate him, am wonld make proper amends ourself If w have done'.hlm anyjlnjastfoe in believing o repeating what we saw in print. xne aispeoBary or lis mautigeiijeiib uai o< often been assailed, that we shall hereafter b slow t? believe anything that Is said agalns It or Its management. That Institution ha been more sinned against than sinning, an< the temperance people of this State may b on their gnard. The saloon men prefer anything to the dli pensary. Some of them, at least, would pre fer prohibition. Under prohibition the Stat wodld be flooded with liquor. yK;* - ^ NORTHERN MILL MEN. * Their Tldlt to Abbeville and Some VatH nf Thuir PnntnM. Last Friday nlgbt a party of Northern mil 'men In charge of Mr. 8. M. Mllliken of Nev York and Mr. Stephen Greene of Boston *" came to Abbeville to Inspect their mill prop erty In this city. Tbey were on their annua Southern toar, looking after their Invest meats down tbis way. At nine o'clock on Satarday morning tb< stockholders met In the mill office. Mr. R M.Haddon was called to the chair, and Hon W. H. Parker was requested to act as Secre tin. Mr. Bailey's annual report gave an Interest ing history of the mill, which was ezpressec in the most chaste .English, lie gave i satisfactory report of the work of the mill foi the last year, Including proper notes of thi progress In building end In furnishing new machines for the mill. The election of directors was gone into. Ir order to save time the rule to have such elec tions by ballot was suspended, and a stock bolder was requested to cast the ballot, wblct was for tbe following named gentlemen : S. M. Mllllken. New York. Jobn W. Danlelson, Providence. Wm. H. Bent, Massachusetts. J. D. Cloudman, Massachusetts. Stephen Oreene, Massachusetts. Wm. H. Parker, Abbeville. *. G. A. Vlsanska, Abbeville. B. S. Barnwell, Abbeville. Hush Wilson. Abbeville. John A. Harris, Abbeville. B. F. Bailey, Abbeville. Tbe stockholders meeting was adjourned when tbe directors met and elected Mr. Bat ley, president and treasurer, Mr. Vlsanska vice-president, and Mr. Parker, secretary. Tbe directors meeting was tben adjonrned, when nearly all tbe vlsltiDg gentlemen wenl through tbe mill. Tbelr expressions of the Institution were very gratifying to tbe borne people. And tbelr act In taking a big block of stock, emphasized and punctuated tbeli remarks. After tbe transaction of tbe business foi wblob tbe Northern gentlemen had come, It was proposed to exhibit our relics of former days, wblob still remain among us as memorials ol the departed greatness, which was once our glory. They were driven around town In veblclee which were klbdiy furnlBbed by our people, and they were shown tbe bouse In which was held tbe last Confederate cabinet meeting. Tbey remarked upon tbe present lack ol paint on that building. Another person ex preesed himself as greatly interested at tbe sight of tbe historic bouse, and immediately asked If we would be obliged to come back this way in going to the cars. Tbey were highly pleased with tbe school bouBe and spoke with a xest which attested .tbelr sincerity. \ When soma of tbe party reached the topot tbe bill, one of them seemed t?ore interested ' than the rest, and said he suDtioEed that thin wai a pretty talr sample or tbe town. This encouraging remark induced bis chaperone to Instruct tbe driver to bead Immediately toward tbe Southern depot. Tbe elegant borne of Mr. Parker attracted attention, and, by several enquiries, lnterewt was manifested In knowing something of tbe honored occupant. Judge McGowan's homestead, wblcb Is now owned and occupied by Mr. W H. Long, excited admiration and enquiry from at least one of tbe visitors. Waiter L. Miller, Esq., was one ot our distinguished citizens who was attentive to the honored guests. \ ' Mr. Parker, the honored patriarch of tbe bom? mill h?d, taok Mr. Miiliken in bis ve kir: i G % r Good iftj (V : '"N The # i A Sm s 8 ; p. s.--K 3 ; now is the t r s B 19 B r ' i i blole, and entertained him, while they passed through the best treets of the city. Secession Hill didn't excite much Interest, although It stood oat In bold relief from the r depot. . I * They didn't take as much stock Id oor his- I > tory as they did In the cotton mill, but Abbe- I B vine waa proud to do them honor, all the I same. . I 6 Our people were delighted at meeting these I 1 gentlemen wbo are the real developers of the I I South. Their investments here, and their I business Intercourse with our people, la the r best guarantee Ibat thin country will never be . torn asunder, and that It'will not again be shocked by the clash or arms. If they bad been among us forty years ago the war would P never have been-fought. If they bad found s as out thirty years 8go we would now be . much further on the road to reconstructed a fortunes, and the Intercourse would have long since taught each to have a proper respect t and a becoming love for the other. n Whii? Dolitlclans may be looking for "a u light Id the west," the 'business men of the ' Houth are turning tbelr attention more to the - rising suti than to the setting sun. They are ? r looking to tbe east for the financial aid which 1b bo necessary to tbe best Interests of all tbls 1 3 Southland. * e No business man goes to tbe west, unless be wants to buy tbe mules and tbe corn that be Bbould ralee at borne. When buslnestmen who seek tbe highest development of tbe country want friends and capital, tbey look a toward the east. And wben tbey bave prac- t tloal schemes to work tbey seldom come home empty banded.. i. And one ootton mill In tbe South Is worth c a thousand times more than all the "light" tjj v that comes from tbe a est. The political proi> ducts of the west are as fire brands and as dIs- B s turblng factors In good government, while the east expends ber money to build up our waste o l* placet, and to make comfortable and bappy c b homes for thousands of our laboring people. t a The east Is for honest money and the up- o . building of every part of tbls great oountry. A 1 The west Is lor cheap money, and thedls- tl > turblng of public confidence In our finances, 8 8 as well as for creating a distrust In business 0 enterprises. d 8 Id 1806 wben tbe fate of tbe Abbeville Cot- c 1 ton Mill stood In tbe balance, we were greatly R B exercised lot fear Bryan and bis 16-to-l asso- n elates mignt eneci our rum. ah iuc inonmr r nary work?the wlDd work?had been flolHb- n ed, bat the men with the money stood as ott p 0 until after the result of the election should be || known. At least Boroe of those of ns who P 6 were seeking aid fait a little badly that the ? t Democratic party was seeking the destruo- p d tlon of the very men whom we were expect- 0 lne to oome to our relief. B 3 Yon know the rest. o e The career of two ol the Northern visitors D Is notable, namely: that of Mr. Greene and ? Mr. Mlillken. Mr. Oreene never builds any 1 >* but first class mills, and his friend, Mr. Mllll- p !- ken, It is said, baa never had one of bis mills 1, p to fall. The Greenville News of last Friday made record of the Journey of these Nothern gentlemen In these terms: A party of nothern gentlemen, haaded by 8. M. Mlillken, of New York olty, who are spending some time In the South looking J over cotton mills arrived In Greenville yes terday over the Southern railway from Atlanta. They are traveling in two special vara. Mr. Mllliken and several others of tbe party are very largely Interested In southern mills _ and the trip Is to enable them to inspectftbese 1 various properties and to take action concem7 Idk additions to be made at some of them. Tbey left New Yore Monday afternoon and went first to Huntsville, Ala..where In located I tbe large Dallas mill. Tbe Dallas Manufac. turlng company baa 25,000 spindles and 740 fl looms, and It has practically decided to at I 9 once erect a second mill of tbe same size, tbe J capital stock being Increased 8650.000. Leaving Huntsvllle Wednesday evening, a; 1 the party came directly to Greenville, via a; Atlanta. They will remain here until this ? evening. After tbelr arrival here yesterday I they inspected the M11I6' Manufacturing comt pany's mill, which Is one of the properties In L r which tbey are interested, and today tbey y 3 will go to the Reedy Elver mill.
