WEDNESDAY, MAY 12,1897.
The arbitration treaty has failed
in the Senate by a -vote of 43 for
and 26 against. A two-third vote
was necessary io ratiiy.
The moral stench about the dis
pensary matters in Columbia is in
tolerable, Some one ought to be
punished or, shall we all agree to
play the rascal together?
If honest men cannot be found
to run the dispensory business at
Columbia the whole thing had best
be abandoned. A rotten roof ruins
the whole house unless newly
shingled. Let m re-shingle or
tear down the structure. Rascality
in high places invariably makes
rascality in low places, and in all
places.
It sounds a little peculiar to us
to hear men who used to denounce
Republican protection as a rob
bery, now advocating the same
protection upon no higher ground
than that, inasmuch as tho repub
licans will force a high tariff on us
any how, we just as well advocate
it on all products and share the
unnatural extortions of gain. Be
cause the laws are powerless to
stop robbery and brigandage, shall
we join the robbers and the brig
ands \uththe high (?) purpose of
getting our share of the plunder.
Such a spirit is contrary fco all of
our history's proud and patriotic
precedents.-Orangeburg Patriot.
This is construed tc be a mild
criticism of McLaurin, but Senator
' Tillman will be on the eame line
except! that he promises to go
further in his advocacy of protec
tion than did McLaurin.
THE BECKROGE TRUNK.
About twenty affidavits have
been made in the Beckrcge trunk
scandal, of which tho following is
a synopsis :
The affidavits are sensational in
the extreme and will result in the
arrest of two and possibly more
dispensary officials.
The evidence is very long and
conflicting. "
The first and most criminal affida
vit is that of Charle J. Lyuch, who
swears that Scruggs invited hin:
into the contraband room to get
some cigars, and he took a key out
of his pocket and said, "Don't tell
anyone I have got this k3y," and
when he was going with Lynch, to
whom he had given three boxes of
cigars, he told Lynch to wait "un
til I sje if there is any one in the
hall."
Lynch swears that Scruggs told
him to hide the things so Blakely
could not see them.
By dirction of Scruggs he gave
?iob?y one of the boxes of cigars.
He told Mobly that Scruggs had a
hocus pocus to the contrabrand
room.
He kept the cigars for future
and reported the facts to Douthit
and Williams of the board.
Commissioner Gaston swears
that he had to put on a new lock
on the contraband room to keep
others out of it. He also filed a
copy of a report he had sent to the
State board of control complaining
of a duplicate key being used on
the contraband room.
Mr. Scruggs, after relating the
transactions as to the trunk, swears
that he used the key of the contab
and which belonged to the State
board of control and which was in
his custody and with Lynch got
four boxes of cigars and four boxes
of peaches, and that the cigars and
peaches were utterly valueless to
the State He said that he had paid
for corn liquor at a higher price !
than the State bought it. In tak
ing the cigars and peaches to give
to give to the boys, he said that he
was only following a custom which
has been in vogue ever since he
was in the dispensary, and not
having any idea of doing, hs ?ave
two members of the board s^me
and told them where he had gotten
them. Blakely, he said was hie
mortal enemy.
Commissioner Vance swears that
on the 29th of April Gaston
voluntarily came to him and
paid him a dollar for a pair of
shoes and twenty five cents for
cigars. These are supposed to come
from the Beckroge trunk.
Mr. Mobly and Mr. Charles
testify as to Lynch bringing in
the cigars and peaches and
distribution of the spoils. Mobly,
Charles and Lynch ate from two
boxes of the peaches and served
some to Scruggs on a paper cutter.
A locksmith from Huseman'f
testifies as to the work he did on
the door in Scraggs' behalf, that
he reported fixing the lock to
Scruggs and left two keys in the
door or delivered them.
Col. Jones testifies that the
arteles saved haven'* been turned
over to him.
The warrants against two of the
dispensary officias will charge
official miscondnct and larceny.
OANTTS HANDS.
. The Spartanburg Herald has the
following interview with Col.
Larry Gantt anent the dispensary
scandal :
Col. Gantt was seen by The
Herald and talked vury freely.
He says they have drawn his name
into this dispensary scandal and
be now wants the calium light
turned on the entire party, from
Ben Tillman down, He says he
wants a legislative investigating
-committee with full power to send
persor>3 and papers, and he
wants to have X rays turned ou
himself first.
"My hands are clean," said Col.
Gantt, "I have no rebates, but I
would like to know how it is that
the present dispensary manage
ment with all its scandals has given
the State $41,000 in rebates, while
the dispeusary under Tillman and
Traxler paid from $5,000 to $11,
000 per car load more for whiskey
a d didn't turn in any rebates to
the State."
"I am going lo be prosecutor now
and I want the light turned on.
Let the man who is guilty suffer
1 have stood by Scruggs, but if his
hands are not clean I will denounce
him as qu:ck as anybody. My
motto i?, ''Let not a guilty man
escape."
"But here is something you can
put in The Herald. On one occaion
Dan Tompkins told rae in the
presence of others, not confidence
but in a crowd, that while Traxler
was dispenser, on one occasion the
dispensary ran out of corn liquor,
and they went out and made some.
He didn't say what they made it
of, but that a few days after that
a friend of Governor Tillman from
Loxiugtou county sent him in a
bottle of that liquor lie had bought
for medical purposes aud made
great complaint. The governor
put it on a shelf in his office and
some time afterwarde a friend
came in and wanted a driuk and
this bottle was given him and he
pronouced it the best he ever
tasted. Justhiw this stood the
chemist as chemically pure I don't
know. Major 13. B. Evans altewards
told me he heard Dan Tompkins
tell me this incident."
"Yes sir, you put me down as
saying I want an investgation
from Hell to Holland. I know a
good deal and all I ask ie for those
who have formed opinions on the
"Dear Clark" letter to simply
wait until this thing is inves
tigated. I want the light turned
on and it will put some men in a
mighty bad fix when it is finished."
Resignation Now in Order.
MR. EDITOR: Don't you think
that those gentlemen now eitizei.s
of Greenwood county, who were
elected last fall to represent Edge
field county in the legislative hails,
as well as those who at the same
time were elected to certain county
offices, should resign their respec
tive positions at once,
(and apologise for not doing so
sooner) and let Edgefield men be
(elected without delay to fill Edge
I field offices/ We, "the people." do.
And we think it would be emi
nently right and proper fer them
to do so; and that their sense of
propriety should prompt them to
hand in their resignations as
speedily as possible. The Edye
[fieldpeople want Edgefieldpeople to
'represent them in office-and out
siders should not dssire to do so.
"A word to the wise is sufficient."
HOME RULE.
Bright Railroad and Bank
Prospects.
For several days railroad talk
bas been rife in the land, on
Tuesday of this week it largely
materialized in the shape of an
enthusiastic meetiug in the court
house. Mr. B. W. Crouch stated
the object of the meeting, and
Hon. Jno. C. Sheppard was
chosen chairman and made some
very appropriate and encouraging
remarks. A. B. Cargile was
chosen secretary.
The following resolutions ?vere
offered by A. S Tompkins,
Esq., of the Fdgefield bar:
Whereas, tho town of Saluda is
quite a distance from any Railroad
and inaccessible to the commercial
world. And whereas the town'has
been regularly laid out-Court
House and public buildings
completed together with various
enterprises incident to a county
seat of a prosperous county, many
other enterprises in prosect, and
Whereas, a railroad is already
graded from Augusta, Ga., via
Edgefield up through Saluda to
Newberry,
Therefore be it reso ved, that it
is the sense of the people of Saluda
county at a meeting assembled that,
a railroad be put into active
operation at once from Augusta
Ga., to Newberry Court House, So
Carolina, via. the town of Saluda
C. H,
And that we hereby suggest
that the Hon. Patrick Walsh of
Augusta be made President and
that Hon. Geo. Johnstone of
Newberrv be made vice-President
And that we pledge ourselves to
do everything in our pow^r to
promote the same.
Resolved further. That public
meetings be arranged and held
along the line from Augusta to
Newberry,
That these resolutions be
published in Augusta Chronicle,
Edgefield, Saluda and Newberry
papers.
Themorion to adopt was made
by P. B. Mayson, Esq,, who spoke
on the resources of the county.
Mr. B. W. Crouch seconded, fol
lowing with an expression ot
gratitude to Mr. W. J. Gaines
and members of the Newberrv
and Edgefield bars present for their
interest in the movement.
Hon. Geo Johnstone spoke at
length on the status of railroad
matters in Saluda. He explained
that the C. N& L., road was built
under more trying circumstances
than we have to confront ; also that
the scheme might be opposed by
the Southern or A it K. and that
it were best to join with parties
intending to compete with these
lines.
Mr. W. J. Gaines explained
how that Mr. Walsh was in a
position to be of much benefit tn
tho scheme, on accunt of hi.
position in finanevs and journal
ism. He also explained the ad
iii^HiijiaijflfliijjHBflHH
vantages of a connection with the
Cumberland Gap.
Mr. A. S. Tompkins explained
the existence of a road bed already
made, and the existence of material
all along the line to tie and trestle
it.
The chairman then said that
the next thing was the esrbiish
ment of a bank here, and suggested
a stock committee to work it up
and saggested also that the first
installment of stock be payable
whea first cotton is sjld and thea
small installment, say, every sixty
days.
Mr. Crouch spoke of corres
pondence in reference to the
matter wherein he had received
much encouragement, and then
nominated the following gentle
men lo compose the stock com
mittee: Alvin Etheredgo W. A.
Strom, A. S. Tompkin?, J. A.
Attaway and Dr. J F Daniel, Mr.
Etheredge amended by adding
Hon J H Edwards and B W
Crouch.
Committee met on Wednesday
and employed Mr. Gaines to solicit
stock for th?? bank. Mr. Gaines
saved the Farmer's Bank of Edge
field, built a bank in Anderson o
Abbeville, and has had rm u
experience in the work. Mr. Guinea
will meet the people . : appoint
ments to be hereafter announced,
aud vre hope he will be tuet with
liberal subscriptions. Weare going
to have a bank, and all who want
to labor for the general advant
ages of Saluda county should get
on the baudwagon. Let the good
work go on.-Saluda Sentinel.
No More "Wire Tires.
Col D. P. Duncan, mauag?r of
the State Alliance exchange,
yesterday afternoon returned from
Washington, where he has been
several days ni business of great
importance to the cotton growers
of the State. He went >n to Suinter
in the afternoon.
Col. Duncan, it will be remem
bered, led the light mad: last year
in many of the Southern States,
particularly in South Carolina,
against the flat cotton tie tnu-t,
introducing a wire which, airer a
big fight, the importers wert- forced
to accept. Before the season was oui
thousands of the wire ties were j
manufactured and sold all through |
South, many of the avowers then
boycotting the flat tie trusl which
had them at its mercy so long.
Colonel Duncan has found from
his visit to New York that the
farmers will have no more trouble
about the tie trust. Several
companies have gone to manu
facturing the fla', ties ou ti arg'1
scale and they are now offering li;
purchasers all the Hat ties that
they can handle at 15 cents a bun
dle less than the actual wire used
last season could be bought at. In
other words, the price;* have lallen,
the t?as ties can be purchased at
15 cents less per but die than the
crude wire to be made into the
ties eau be bought at.-The State;

There is comfort in the knowledge
so often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's
Swamp Koot, the great kidney remedy
fu 1 li 1 is every wish in relieving pain in
the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and
every part of the urinary passages. It
corrects inability to hold urine and
scalding pain in passing it, or bad
effects following use of liquor, wineor
beer, ami overcomes that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled to get up
many I ?inc-* during the night to
urinate. The mild and tue extraordi
nary effect of Swamp Hoot is soon
realized. It stands the highest for ?ts
wonderful cures of the most distresr
