The Press and Banner ABBEVILLE, S. C. Published Every Wednesday by THE PRESS AND BANNER CO. WM. P. (-RKE.VF,, Editor JULY 14, 1915. 1HL. - v 1 - -r ... - - = MANNING AND THE TIGERS. In his speech at the Prses Associ anon, neiu ai v^intn. cynuga, mob .week, Governor Manning was one of of the principal speakers. In his address, he gave to the editors of the State an account of his stewardship as the chief executive officer of the state. Of particular interest were his remarks on the subject of law enforcement. The Governor was elected to the office which he now holds largely by the people who believed that he stood for a strict enforcement of the crimia e-fo f/i ocv\A7>l al 1>Y nai ovatuv^o VA UIW oK*uo^vviuiij for an enforcement of those laws forbidding the unlawful sale of intoxicating liquors. He has not disappointed his' supporters. He began his administration by closing the clubs in Columbia an dthe other large cities. There was no reason for the hankers, lawyers, and other professional men in Columbia to have a club where liquors were dispensed than there was for a bar-room in Abbeville. A great many people may not look at the matter in this light, but it amounts to the sabie thing in the end. The Ctovernor next called on the Sheriffs the various'counties, to! enforce tbe 'dispensary law, as wellj a sail other laws. His request has' had a ready response iform the greater number of officers in the j several counties. In the large cities like Columbia and Charleston, the Governor looked to the chief executive officers of these cities for the enforcement of this law law. But in Charleston, he received no en* couragement. After a long corresDonifence with thl> Mmrnr nf that city, in which the latter -was anything bat frank, and in whioh %e showed a plain intention to disregard the obligations of the oath of office which he faad taken, -the Governor turned the matter of the enforcement of the dispensary law over to Sheriff Mar . w? iwpcci, mey are now ngnung for what is right with a will. And it all goes to show that the right man at the helm of the Ship of v,State will be able to steer her in the .. way of law enforcement if he is .really a man, and if he stands for the enforcement of the law everywhere, even in Charleston, and Governor Manning is the right man. His administration may be criticised, and this and the other fault mav be found with his measures, and the way he goes after things, but the great majority of the people of the state will be behind him when he needs them, because he is right, he is sincere, if not consistent always, and he is the Governor of all the j>e#Pe of the State. tin, of that <county.* i And the result has mot been disappointing. The Governor is be*,, f ginning to demonstrate to the people, of the state that the dispensary law may be enforced, even Charleston, if the enforcement of the law is determined on by the Governor. A good number .of constables from other parts of the state have been sent to Charleston, and they have been raiding the liquor shops (in reality the bar-rooms which operate in that city in violation of law) and have been securing good results. THp rpnnrf fnr Tnno wiUnV uor. V vuuv Tfllivu iiao J uou been filed, shows that in the past month, these constables seized a:ui confiscated to the state about $350'; worth of contraband liquors, while the entire police force of the city of Charleston seized less than $200. But this is not all. In that month , the sales by the county dispensaries, . in that county,* have increased to 1 such an extent that it must be evident to any man who reads that the people of Charleston, to a large extent, have stopped patronizing the ' blind tiger, an dthar they are conforming to the law in the purchase of intoxicating liquors. Another healthy sign for Charles-! ton is that the two daily newspapers of that city are ont for the enforce- ^ ment of the dispensary law. While j heretofore -they haye made little, if any, effort to encourage and compel an obedience to the law of the state In fViie ? r*ii* JURISDICTION. Some days ago we read in tt daily papers that the people of Spa tanburg county were awake to tl necessity of good roads in that cou: ty. One of the notices stated th; two more split log drag associatioi had been organized in .the- count bringing the total of these organiz tions up to five. The purpose < these organizations is to drag tl public highways of the county aft eaet\ rain and to keep the roads order. The organization planned th each resident along the several roa would assume control of a certa section of the road, which he wou drag as often as occasion require He was to keep account of his tin and report the same to the head i the organization, who was to hai the same to the county supervise and request payment at the rate < twenty*five cents per hour. This plan seemed to promise son results, and if carried out wou have guaranteed to Spartanbu conntv at least some eood roads. blessing which Abbeville coun does not now enjoy. But while things looked promi ing, they were not so. These ci zens of Spartanburg county who p the taxes to build good roads ai who must travel jthem, made a gra mistake. They over-looked t JURISDICTION of a towns* board, whose chief claim to ?aa we presume, is that they stand I tween the people and all pn?gr< along all lines. By a little JUKI j DICTION a small man may be gra ly puffed up. .... The people of Spartanbarg coun .should not lose hope. Hwy shou J go forward and keep the roads up their own expense. The taxes whi they pay for this purpose will duly spent?for salaries. Burnett's Flmrhtgs A. M. HILL & CO have a full stock of Burnett's and Eddy's Flavorings.
