Martin' F. Ansel was inauguarated Governor of South Carolina Tuesday in ^ the presence of a large audience gathered from every section of the* State. . The inauguration of Governor An sel marks a new era in the history of .South Carolina politics, iii that he is the first chief executive in 15 years who has essayed to oppose the State dispensary system, which was enact ed 15 years ago under the leadership pf Governor B. R. Tillman, and which has since been the leading issue in State politics. Governor Ansel* was elected on au anti-dispensary platform, which ear lies with it the abolition of the State dispensary ' system, leaving the ques tion to the counties tc decide for "themselves as between' county dis pensaries and prohibition. ; Should Abolish . Liquor System. In his inaugural address Governor Ansel ih no uncertain terms recom mended the abolishment of the pres ent liquor system which, under State control, has grown to be a $4,000,000 business. Whether or not the dispensary will be abolished depends upon the action of the General Assembly now in ses sion. In the House there is an ad mitted majority in favor of its ex tinction, while in the Senate both sides are claiming a majority. Among other recommendations of the incoming Governor are the abol ishment of bucket shops, a system of rural police, liberal appropriations for the publie schools, more drastic punishment for criminal assault upon women, and liberal support of the de partment of immigration. Governor Ansel in his address said, in part: Genctlement of the General Assembly and My Fellow Citizens: In obedience- to the will of the peo ple of this State, as expressed at the ballot box, I am here to take the solemn oath of office as Governor ot South Carolina, and to assume the duties of, this high and responsible position. " I am deeply grateful to the people fer this manifestum of their con fidpnee, and, when I survey the vast responsibilities and . duties connected ; wi . li ?lie same, I realize- deeply my in ability to-fully ? meet them. Feeling,1 .however,-that I ..shall have your full co-operation and support, and xelying npon your help at all times, I assume th?se duties and resposibilities, prom> ising to give to them my best judg ment and talents, andvall the powers with which the great God has endow ed me. Education.. Our State constitution requires that we shall "provide a liberal system of free public schools for. all children between the ages of six and 21." When we consider the great power and influence of an educated people and that' the strength and prosperity of a State depend ultimately upon the intelligence of the average citizen, we-.can realize the mind of the fram ers of this organic law. It, therefore, behooves us to enact such laws as will fully 'earry out this wise pro vision of the State constitution. The State institutions of higher learning are all well equipped and are doing a great work in the edu cation of many of our girls and boys, but these fortunate ones are but a meagre 10 per cent, of those within the school age; the other 90 per cent, are wholly dependent upon the com mon schools. It is true that many of tbef graded schools are kept open for nine months in the year by the help of the special taxes voted upon themselves by the tax payers of the particular school district, but many of the small schools in the rural districts are in session but for three or four months in the year. Realizing that most of the children who attend these schools are receiving from them all the school advantages that they will ever get. are we doing our full duty to them? Are we thus fitting them'for all of the duties of an intelligent citizen ship? We are building for the future and we should see to it that we build strong and well. You havj no more important matter that will come be fore you and I recommend that lib eral appropriations be made for the common schools. ? also ask your special attention to and consideration of the establish ment of high schools in connection with and as a part of the free school system of our State. Many children will be able to attend the high school who cannot attend a State college, and many others will be better pre pared for college after having attend ed the high school. It is a step in the direction of giving to the boys and girls better opportunities in their school life and for making them bet ter citizens. Liquor Question. One of the most important subjects that" you have before you for con sideration, gentlemen of the General Assembly, is the liquor question. The people'of .the State have spoken in no uncertain sound, and we can not mistake their meaning, that the State dispensary system must be ab olished and that there must be en acted in its stead, a law providiug for local county option as between county prohibition and county dis pensaries. In making my campaign this past summer, one of the principal issues before the people was the question of. State dispensary or local option as between county prohibition and coun ty dispensaries. The plank in ray platform upon that question is as follows : "I am opposed to the system of a State dispensary. 1 am in favor of local county option between county prohibition and county dispensaries, Let each county say for itself wheth* er it desires that liquor shall be s in that county, pr that it shall not |j3old therein. This system has be j and is now,- the law in several of States around and near us, and il regarded with satisfaction so far a have been able to learn. You kn what you had rather have in y county and you should, therefc have the right to Say so, and not other counties vote upon what y< cpunty should hhvfe. You mani your own county ai?airs in every th: else, wliy not in this mattel*? f l favor each county voting u? tbat question f?r thehifeelvest If i Vote is for liquor to ts sold? then a county dispensary be operated .that county under the restricts now thrown around the sale of liqi with such- other regulations as 1 Legislature may deem best. Let J county board of control be ?ppoi ed by the Governor and let the boi so appointed have charge of the wh matter for that county, said beard report. to the judge at each term the Circuit Court for that county all of its actings and doings, a then let the judge hand that rep to the grand jury for their ins'peeti and investigation, with such inst ri tions as he uiay think proper. Wh. ever profit is made will ?o to t county. Let the dispersers be pi a - salary and not a commission what they sell. If the vote is i prohibition, then allow no liquor to sold in fluch county, and pass stringent law providing for the pr ishment of all "blind tigers" a other violators of the law, and ma it the duty of the county sheril deputies, constables, marshals, poli< men and otn?r peace officers, to s to it that this 'law is enforced, a^ all violators are brought to justi and punished. ."I would be glad if no liquors we sold as a beverage, but the conditio are such at this tiuie, that I belie this to be the best way to deal wi the question." I stand upon that platform to-ds and I urge that you enact a law ab? ishing the State dispensary syste arid give the people of each coun the" right to vote upon the questi of county prohibition or county di pensa ?y. The best way of controlling the sa of liquor has Been agitating the min of the people of this country for mai years; the sale of it has been-decla ed au evil by the highest courts the land and the question for us nc is which is the best way <\ contra! ing it .in this State. The State dispensary system w adopted, and after a trial of 13 yeai a great majority of the people < the State have said that they wi; it abolished and that each coun shall be allowed the right to s? whether they will have prohibition < county dispensaries. The will of the people is suprem ' and we should heed their demand many of you were elected upon tl same platform and the matter is no before you, gentlemen. It is for yt io say whether the will of the pe pie shall be camed out or not. L us .do our duty without fear or fa or. Bucket Shops. ' Another matter ; that I desire; i bring to your attention is the enac ment of a law preventing- the open tion of what are known as "buck shops,,' or cotton or stock exchange This is a species of speculation th! is taking thousands" of dollars fro this State, is demoralizing our cit zens, and is bringing many of the: to poverty and min. The States of North Carolina ar Georgia have already prohibited the: . from doing business within thc boundaries, and we owe it to ou selves and to the good name of tl State that we follow the example s worthily set us. We now have o our statute books an act declariri "unlawful, contracts for the sale c articles for future delivery, made ur der certain circumstances," etc. Let us now follow this up with a act prohibiting any bucket shop, c cotton or stock exchange or any othe exchange of like character from doin buisuess in this State. Assault, Etc. I further wish to call to your ai I tention another matter which I cor sider of grave importance at this par ticular time in our history, and tba is the enactment of a law providin the death penalty to any male perso: making an assault upon a female wit! intent to ravish, "ranting the righ ti the jury tring the case to fix th punishment at life imprisonment ii j the State penitentiary if in thei judgment the facts wort-ant a les punishment than death. In this day when we read of s< many assaults of this character bein? made, it behooves us to wake up t< the situation and make the penalt] so severe thal; the women of thi State may " be protected from tin heinous crime and the perpetrator! punished so severely that all will b<: deterred from committing the same I further recommend that an act b< passed .providing that in all cases oj rape or assault with intent to ravish the female be alowed to estify ir private, before the judge, in the pres. euee of counsel for the State and de fendant and rhe defendant himseli md that thc testimony so taken sha) 'ie read to Hie jury as the evidence o} the case. This is the law in, at leas! one, if not more, of the States of th( Union, and should be the law in thu State. In this connection, I think it im portant, also to ask that yon pass ai act making it a misdemeanor to pos or display in any public place o on any street or highway indeceiu pictures of females. It is an evil thai has been growing in the last fev years, and one that calls for actio: on our part. It is not necessary for me to call to your attention the rea sons why this act should be passed, it is obvious to all right thinking per sons. I respectfully recommend that a system of mounted police or patrol for the rural districts be established. This is no new idea, but one that is being carried out with great success in many countries. When there are so many vagrants and idlers roaming about and there is so much work to be done on every side, (he work or move-on system should be establish ed, and that can be carried out bet ter hy such mounted patrol or police system, than by any other plan. Give them authority to arrest all violators of the law cf the State, and carry them before thc nearest magistrate for trial or commitment for trial to the court of General Sessions. When we hear so much complaint from so maDv sources of the neglect or omission of the railroad companies doing buinesss in this State, of giving to the people proper passenger and freight accoinniodations and.rates and accurate information, of delayed irains, it is very evident to every thinking .person that the railroad commission?rs should have power lo correct these things and to give re lief whei*e it is fair and just between the railroads and the people. The railroad corporation's should be dealt with fairly aiid ?justly, but at the same time the peoples' rights should be provided foi- and respected. I, therefore, recommend -that such additional- powers be given to the railroad commissioners as will enable them to compel the railroads to com ply with such reasonable rules and orders as may be -just and proper. In this connoetion, I would recom mend that the act now of force re quiring the'salaries of thc railroad commissioners to. be paid by the mil roads be repealed. The office of rail road commissioner is a State office and'the salary ought to be paid by the State. ? Supreme Court. I desire, gentlemen, to call your at tention also to the matter of the ne cessity for better accommodations for our Supreme Court. The space allloted in the State House for the use of the Supreme Court has all been taken up with the library and re cords, ?xcept one consultation room and the court room. I respectfully ask that yon look into this matter ?md provide for the^ necessities of the court in this regard. Immigration. There is no question of greater mo ment to our material and. industrial life than that of immigration. Tho labor question is a very serious one.? Many thousands of acreg of lands are now lying idle for the want of labor ers, and many other avenues of trade are offeriug work to the workers. To my mind, the best solution of this question is the bringing in of home seekers, home builders and desirable workmen. I, therefore, recommend that you take such steps as may to you seem wise to foster and sustain the depart ment" of immigratipn now accomplish ing so much work on this line. Statue, of John C. Calhoun. While many of the -States of this union have honored themselves by placing in the Hall of Fame, in the Capitol at Washington, D. C., statues of one or two of their honored and eminent sons, who have done- noble work for their States and for the union, South Carolina's place has re mained vacant. I respectfully re commend that you give this matter your careful attention and give some consideration to the same that at no distant day the statue of John C. Cal houn may adorn that hall, for by thus honoring that noble son of South Carolina, we will Honor ourselves. Such other matters, gentlemen, PS may be proper to bring lo your at tention during the present session, I shall allude to in'special messages. Conclusion. Allow me to add in the words of that eminent statesman, Thornes Jef ferson, who, when called to the of fice of President of the "United States, .dosed his inaugural address, in part .as follows: "I repair, then, fellow citizens, tc the post; you have assigned rae, with experience enough in subordinate, of fic?s to have s.een the difficulties of this, the greatest of all. I haye learn ed to expect that it will rarely failvto the lot of imperfect men to retire from this station with the reputation and the favor which brings him- into it. . * * * VI shall often go wrong through defect of judgment, when right, I shall often be thought wrong by those whose positions will not command a view of the whole ground. I shall ask your indulgence for my own errors, which shall never be intentional; aud your support against the errors of others, who may ?condemn what they would not, if seen in all of its parts. My solicitude will be to retain the good opinion of those who have bestowed it in ad vance, to conciliate that of others by doing them all the good in my power, and to be instrumental in the hap piness and freedom of all. "Relying, then on the patronage of your good will, I advance with obed ience to the work, and may that In finite Power, which rules the desti nies of the Universe, lead our coun cils to what is best, and give them a favorable issue for your peace and prosperity."
