The Press and Banner ,Bv "W. W. and W. R. Bradley. HUGH WILSON, Editor. ABBEVILLE, S. C. Atf-Publlshed every WcduesdP at. 52 a year In advance. Wednesday, Aug. 9, 1905. The l>iH]?cni?ary. If anybody thinks tbat the supporters of the dispensary, as the best method of dealing with liquor, would withhold from the publlo a fall exposure of any or all of the unlawful or Improper conduct of the dispensary offl clala, he Is entirely mistaken. If tbere is wrong doing the friends of the dispensary system would be tbe first to let the fact be known, so that reforms may follow. They certainly do not want to perpetuate wrong doing. The control of the sale of liquor is a public question In which all men are Interested and about whloh the best men in tbe State may differ. It Is hardly In good form for one side to assume an air of superiority over the uiuer, The Press and Banner does not understand why dispensary liquor Is worse than blgb license llqoor, and this newspaper does not understand why a prohibitionist should seek to do away with the prohibition from sunset to sunrise, which we now have. We do not understand how temperance men can advocate high license, tbe plan wblcb we regard as tbe worst and most wicked of all tha forms ol dealing with liquor, but It 1* a fact tbat some temperance men are marching with the saloon men, under tbe blgb license banner. We are surprised at Tlllman'6 speech at Edgefield, which would seem to encourage . llquoi-drinking. We do not understand how a man who refuses to drink blmself, should hold out tbe Idea tbat liquor-drinking is not wrong or dangerously for others. We are surprised tbat Mr. Tillman should attempt to justify the use of liquor and then oall upon tbe Bible to sustain bis position. The fact is, it looks as if we do not under stand anything. But we believe tbat greater danger mmn iu uraiu uriuaiut iu?u >u thing else. The dispensary to a degree dlscourages or set* a bar to treating, and lor this reason, among other reasons, we support the dispensary In preference to any other form of dealing with liquor. Abbeville baa bad high lloenie, low license, no license, and dispensary. To temperance people, the dispensary has been most acceptable, or that would be onr testimony. Bot If Tillman Is to promulgate such speeches and such doctrines as be made at Fdgefleld last Saturday, our people may reasonably expect to become noted tor their Intemperance and Jack of thrift. Money spent for liquor Is that much money whl?h la ten fold worse than thrown away Already the sale of liquor In this State Is alarming. No law on the statute books conld have as demoralizing an eflect as the speeches of Mr. Tillman, which, If they dot encourage, they certainly wink at Intemperance. Intemperance Is our great danger. No form of dealing with liquor Is half sp injurious as the speeches which would teach our people to drink liquor. The figures which Mr. Tillman quote to how the number of United States licenses In tbe different States ie very gratifying to us, bat tbe painful thing Is tbe Increased pales In this State, and Mr. Tillman encouraging th? still further nee of liquor. Tbe amount of money which this State spends in liquor 1? exceeded only by tbe amount which onr peo pie throw away annually on life insurance. Tbe money expended on life insurance may force the individual to neglect his debts, and thus lower bis standard of honesty, but the liquor habit rains tbe citizen morally and unfits blm for physical or mental labor. We would Booner have a bar room on every hill than to have Mr. Tillman continue bis encouragment to tbe drink habit. LIquorbas ruined more good men than anything else, And be who would encourage Its use, assume* fearful responsibility. Drunkards are made from moderate drinkers. Moderate drinkers are made from dram-drinkers. Dram-drinkers are made frcm the best and warmest hearted ol our people. The whole-souled generous hearted citizen 1b In great danger when be tampers with liquor. The selfish skinflint whose heart is as dry as summer dust cbd better protect himself, and be seldom falls a victim to tbe drink bablt. Then most our beat men be offered as a facrlflce at tbe altar of liquor? Abolish Them All. The [search light has. been turned on tbe Equitable Society and It baa brought to tbe public gaze an amazing state of corruption in that giant corporation. Men in the highest positions have been guilty of crimes against tbe policy holders, which should send them to a felon's cell. This mamotb Institution perhaps differs from others 01 its kind mainly In tbe matter of the search light. Why not abolish it and all others suspected? Tbe County Supervisors ifflce of Greenville under the search light has been found to be permeated with rottenness. It is said that at other times other County officers of tbe State have been found In like condition. .Let us abolish them one and all. Tbe good name of South Carolina should not be trailed In the dust lor this or any other institution. The Agricultural Department at Washington In two Instances hag been found guilty ol the groBeeEt frauds and impositions. Its cotton statistitlons have had secret arrange* ments with Wall Street gamblers, by which they and tbe gambler have grown rich at tbe expense of the farming class, tbe very men wbo;the Institution Is supposed to benefit. Again, other sub departments of tbis institution have conspired with certain chemists to sell inoculating substances for crops to tbe farmers at exborbltant rates. Let us abolish this Institution also. Ol course it does much good in informing tbe farmer in advance of any advantage he may have in the matter of 6hort crops or reduoed acreage, thereby saving him from tbe Wall Street sharks; but there are rascals in the department, eo let us forget tbe good and wipe the abominable thing from tne statute ' books. Tbe South Carolina Dispensary it is said is i oorrnpt. There are perhaps over one thousand employees of the institution in the Slate , and It is said that wrong doing has actually ; been located in one county or the State, and that even in the Stale dispensary some of tbe officials are suspected. It Is true that under this method of controllog liquor South Carolina sells lean liquor per i capita than almost auy State In the Union, : Including many prohibition States. It la also true .that arrests for drunkenness are fewer than In almost any State, Including the prohibition StateB. It Is true that this Institution takes the money from the drinking man and reiunds It to his wife and cbtl. dren. But there Is a suspicion that men In high places In this institution are corrupt. Let us then forget the little good done and let as abolish the detestable thing. Let us abolish them one and all. Of course no one would go to the trooble to hunt and punish the offending officer or officers. It it not their fault. It Is In this as in the foregoing aaBes, the fault of the institution. F. E. and C. U. of A. There will be a meeting of the County F. E. and C. U. of A., on the morning of the 18th, at 10 o'olock. The regular meeting will be as usual, on the first Tuesday after the first Money In September. ) uyji*.'.' "* , .j 'fi-t Tillman at Krigetield, We have read the speech of Senator Tillman at Edgefield, as reported In the dally papers. What the Senator says of drinking liquor looks to us too much like he was drumming for the dispensary. We are sorry that the Senator should have made any speech or any utterance that would encourage our people* to drink liquor. Because of the danger of becoming a slave to It, some of us are afraid to drink liquor. The habit of drinking liquor Is injurious to health and character, and It Is a bar to a man's promotion In the business world. Tbe liquor habit is Indeed the greatest enemy that wo have, aud no man should be encouraged to enter upon a dangerous course from which nothing but evil is to be bad. 'Senator Tillmau boasts that heasa great strong man cau use It as he pleases and still maintain the mastery over himself. He Is lu (act a ttmperance man, but he tells the"boya" that there Is nothing lu tbe Bible which forbids their drinking. While this newspaper stands for and supports tbe dispensary, first, last and all tbe time, It also favors temperance, and It would urge all men to refrain from tbe use of liquor. We support the dispensary because of Its restrictive features and we oppose the barroom because it encourages tbe drink habit. | Senator Tillman has our sincere thanks for establishing the dispensary. For tbat tbe State owes him a monument as broad as the horizon and as high as tbe sky. We would honor his bravery and bis manhood In faclDg I tbe great opposition that confronted him on J the subject of the dispensary. [ We honor blm for the example of his moral life. We honor him fcr the correctness of his oonduct In Washington. We honor him for the cltan bands tbat placa him above suspicion fn congress. We honor him for Clemson and Wlnthrop. We honor him tor being incorruptible in any station. But we are shocked that be should make any speech that would set a lower standard fur others than he seta op for himself. Being sober himself, whysbould be encourage others to thedrLuk habit? Several years ago Senator Tillman made a t-peecb In Abbeville similar to that wblcb be receuily delivered ,ln Edgeflold wherein he claimed that there was no sin In drinking liquor. Reasoning from effect back for the cause, he proves that bis encouragement of the drink bablt has 1. creased the sales of liquor In the Slate. Mr. LaMotte of Columbia, not long ago, proved by facts and figures (be great Increase of crime since the organization of the Law and Order League. Can Tillman not prove that since he began to make these speeches about the slnlessness of drinking liquor thai the revenues of the dispensary have been greatly increased? How a man like Tillman con make snob speeches as would have a tendency to de UckUUii UiB pcvpiu id uiuio iuau no cbu uuugistand. His Influence 1b greater perhaps than that .of any man in the State, and wby be should encourage the drink bablt Is as mysterious to us as tbe act of the prohibitionists In going Into tbe liquor camp. oinff Into the Camp of tbe Eneiny. Some of tbe enemies of tbe dispensary are urging tbat it be demolished because of tbe allegation on their part of corruption or mismanagement by those wbo have control of It. It 1b natural tbat they should catch at straws. Not once do we recollect to have seen from that side of tbe question any proposition to reform, obanee or make better. Tbey have not explained wby liquor sold under bigb license is better, or purer, or less destructive of morals than the liquor sold by dispensaries. Tbey have not told how the State, or the people, are to be benefitted by transferring tbe profits of tbe liquor business from the treasuries of the Counties and the State, and putting the same into the hands of liquor monopolies. Tbey have told us that tbe band ling of dispensary liquor demoralizes tbe dispenser. but tbey have wisely kept from us tbe probable effect of liquor on a high license dealer. As for the poor little honest but simple problbltlonlstB, tbey have said nothing in tbls fight as far as we now recollect, except "me too'' to whatever may be said by the blgb license people. It may be tbat we are In error, but it seems to us tbat tbe few bonest and sin cere prohibitionists, have under some delusion, gone b8g and baggage Into the license osmp. This of course is their right. The; are the keepers of their own conscience and are responsible, or accountable to nobody for the selection of their own company. But the friends of temperance are sorry to see them fighting tbe.restrlctlons and the prohibition which we now have. We have prohibition from sunset, to sunrise. And we have restrictions for the sale of liquor during the day time. For sincere and honest prohibitionists to go into the camp of the high license people to fight again 6t the prohibition and the restrictions which we now have, and in aid of the efforts of tbe high license element, is not readily understood by this editor. And tbe difficulty of understanding the aot of temperance people In supporting the high license proposition, is increased when It is remembered that high license offers the greatest possible Inducements to lraud and extortion. How any man, advocating the sobriety and tbe well being of society can advocate or tolerate a proposition to Inaugurate tbe most wicked and the most corrupt method of dealing with liquor, 1b beyond our com prehension. The consistency of tbe few who claim greater purity and better morals than the rest of us while advocating high license, has not been explained to us. How a man who professes to be a temperanoe man, and who claims to be working for the sobriety of the people, can Join hands with the high license people In their effort to Install the most coriuptlng form of dealing In liquor Is not understood by us. These good and bonest temperance people, It seems to us are acting strangely. If their minds are clear In going Into the high license camp, what are we to think of their Inconsistency ? Why tbe difference between their prolesslons and their action ? New Cotton Hill. If our memory Is not at fault something was recently said In these columns about tbe building of a new cotton mill In Abbeville* Ibe people of Abbeville always help any man who puis zeal Into any enterprise. Abbeville ihas already furnished three of the most successful mill presidents, and our supply of good material ?for mill presidents is aot half exhausted. Mr. John A. Harris, Mr. Lewis W. Parker and Mr. Aug. W. 8mltb make a trio of wbom any town m lght well be proud. We have many good men for the ptace of mill president. Their ability for aucb work Is only exceeded by their modesty. ?nd so their lights are hid under a bubhel, or tbe electric current between tbeoa and tbe people's pocket books has been cut off. All thou iL'ill h? VP tn Hrt 1c In 1*r?r\r? nont 11 rt '? onH results will materialize. Any one of the following named gentlemen could build a mill. We mention tbelr names alphabetically : A. ti. Anderson, R. E. Cox, W. P. Greene, F. E. Harrison, Frederick Mlnsball, J. L, McMillan, L.T. Miller, Gillespie Smltb, Gordon White, and many others. If an earnest canvass of the town was made for a mill tbe necessary subscriptions could be bad. Hpeaklng for tbe Press and Banner we would make a subscription for either oi the above named gentlemen, or anybody else. We ar? not particular which man may get the Job. What we are particular about 1b the new cottoo mill. \ - - ' ' iuJA 'J)iL*m "T'> 1 J A man he stands good int 2 The rij trade ma '' law and r*f| and this S The G< K valne. * The N in red ac ? crackers to guarai ^ To mc i trade ma ^ and LE] i ?

It isasouroe of regret tbat we do not fully realize the disadvantages nnder wbloh our Representatives, State bd d National, labor by reason of a disposition on the part of tbe people to shift tbem frequently, for no otber resson tban to give some other men a Job. Tbe men who we bave been sending to congress and tho?e wbo now represent us are Just as able as those from any other State but as the entire work of congress 1b done in committee, and aB advancement on thepe committees Is based almost solely on the term of servloo, the abort term congressman gets but little consideration. The Washington correspondent of the News and Courier, Mr. K. M. Lamer, recognizes and emphasizes this point In a recent article discussing the probable make up of the committees of the next congress. Mr. Lamer says: "There is plenty of room for promotion In the South Carolina delegation, so far as committee assignments are concerned. The obanges In tbe delegation have been so frequent that the members have not beerraftorded an opportunity to work up to some ol tbe big committees. Long service In the bouse cuts an important figure in tbe construction of tbe committees. South Carolina dots not appear to appreciate that tact, and tbe result Is tnat any old committee is regarded as good enough for b South Carolinian because they are not expected to stay long. ' Representative Flnley has an obscure place on ;tb? postofflce committee, which Is about tbe best that oan be said for tbe delegation. Representative Johnson Is hidden away In the Botany Bay committee on war claims. Representative Lever Is able to render valuable Bervlce to bis district and the State by bis membership on the agricultural oommlttee. Wyatt Aiken, who promises to become a valuable representative, 1b in tbe tread mill of tbe committee on pensions, one of tbe most overworked bodies In tbe bouse, and tbere is do chance for making a repu IJtlUU. Representative Legare had bat little opportunity to display bis intelligence and leglsla-1 tlveability as a member of tbe committees on paten ta, Indian affairs and arts and expositions. He came consploloualy to tbe front In connection with tbe naval appropriation bill and it Is probable that be may secure some desirable committee assignments because of bis recognized ability and bis personal popularity. Representatives Patterson and Eilerbe are yet to be tried in tbe balance of experience." Big Heet of Farmers. Mr. E. D. Smith, president of tbe Southern Cotton Growers' Association, and Mr. F. H. Hyatt, ol Columbia, have been lnylted to spieak to the farmers at Abbeville on the 18th, and bfwe accepted the Invitation. Mr. Harvie Jordan has also been invited and tbe committee on invitations hope to receive a favorable answer from Mr. Jordan, as it would be very little trouble to make the trip from Atlanta by the Seaboard. Nothing but a previous engagement can excuse him. This is expeeted to be one of tbe largest gatherings of farmers th Is year. The committee of arrangements consists of A. F. Calvert, J. Foster Hammond, W. R. Bradley, W. T. Bradley, Uavld Gilliam, John Glbert, Jno. Knox and P. A. Cheatham. Reunion of Orr'H Rifles. Gen. Hemphill lelt yesterday for Honea Path to attend a reunion of Orr's Rifles, which event tunes place today. Gen. Htmphlll ha* bteu honored ilx times with the presidency of this grand old remnant of the Confederacy. No man In South Carolina today Is more loyal to the Lost Cause, or takes more interest In it than he. He lets no opportunity slip of meeting the old veterans that are go fast passing into the great beyond. All honor to them! Let the Southland lift its hat in reverance to the small remaining band of veterans who fought to protect our homes and lived to re construct. Behold the beautiful order now and the chaos of '65. They have fought two battles, and deserve the victor's crown. See Here, Mr. I-iu-a*. If It should be In the end that Mr. Mllllken has bought a controlling interest in your cotton mill, and you want the presidency of another, pieaae come over to Abbeville. We would be glad to have so successful a man as the president of the Laurens mill come this wav. If he would come, and a Droner canvass wan made, Abbeville would no doubt do her best, even If tbat best 1b small. Think about It, Mr. Lucas. We need a cotton mill,and we need a builder. Wnteliful Pollceninn. One night last week In the small hours ol the morning the editor while slttlug on the piazza saw a cat come and stop on the public square in front of his room, T linking to see the cat jump ten feet or such a mutter, he threw an exchange which had not been opened and which was in a single wrapper, down at the cat. It struck the animal, hitting tlat, aud making couniderable noise. The cut, nt. nxpected, left.tbut neighborhood In a hurry. ' The night policeman, Mr. U. H.
