Thus t the dispensary began its career * aa a aupplanter, and it has made ?' UAVAn VAtru nf Di.oannv rno/.i*,! P J , .^V,wtv4, | marked by bloody and disgraceful 1 steps from the beginning. a The present condition of the t liquor business can hardly be said I to be satisfactory to a single in- c telligent person in the State. ^ When the dis|>en8ary law was 6rst r adopted/ thousands of our honest 1 people hoj>ed for, and expects * much from it. They were tol 1 that the restrictive features of the c law would be enforced by sober State official*, who, with no finan i cial interest at stake, would labor t to reduce the consumption of c liquor and make the dispensary t system a stepping stone to pro t j hibitioo. The dispensary had been < in operation but a short time be- i fore the greed of gold began to i manifest itself among high officials, 11 : /utonti fire encouraged to make another I I c< appeal to the voter* for a supreme j ^ etlort along the line for the aboli- i. ^ t< tion of the manufacture and sale | ^ of liquor in South Carolina. For . many years the men ana women . of our State have toiled earnestly ^ to effejt legal prohibition of the h liquor trathc. and gratifying pro* greas wan being made not only in Sl banishing the licensed aaloon n from all territory without incor^ * pointed towns and cities, but e the e was much being accomplish P ed in the way of reducing the,0 number of saloons here and thers, j n and also in securing control ?fj? the smaller municipalities through,0 the ballot box or restrictive le</i* >ft *1 Ution Thin progress in temperance reform induced an application to the rogularly constituted authorities of the Democratic party in control of the election!^ machinery of the State for a 11 separate box in which to vote for or against prohibition, and tiia f' privilege wa# granted in the pri i ^ mary election of 1892, resulting , in an overwhelming majority for n the lerral oiohihition of the Honor; d id pressure was brought to bear I ion dispensers t<> increase Bales. ' tie annual salary paid a common unity dispenser would buy thirty I ilos of cotton, and ho was given understand that his dispensary ust ?be profitable to the State or would bo closed and himself smissed from the service. The les increased at once and have creased month by month eve*- i nee; so that today tho State is tiling nearly as much liquor as, rer did the old barrooms in their ilraiest days. And how could it bo otherwise? he uppetite tor drink is the one and every hindrance to the ile <?f liquor ha* been swept away, he door of tho dispensary stands ide open to serve every one thati ill buy. No knowledge of the urehaser necessary, no inquiry h to the purpose for which the quor is wanted, and no signature > any request: simply pav your ionev and take your liquor, as inch as you can carry, if you ke.

Disenser after dispenser has stolen r lost the money of the State and ot one has ever been punished r even prosecuted, except in one r two instances. Commissions nd rebates and bribes and lefts and murders have been ie natural products of this sys 3m of State liquor soiling, and, fter years of such work, its manners still plead with 11s to "give a fair trial." Those who manage it say tho ispensary paid la*t year $130,00 to the education of the chilren of the State, but they did ot tell tho startling fact that the ispensary had drawn from thw ooplo of the State at least 20 imes as much and spent it in fat alaries and other expenses, purhases, etof the liquor system, t may Its said that in addition to he $130,000, the counties and owns received a small sum each, nd to this we reply: The expenses nenrred by the counties and towns a the trial, punishment and suptort of criminals, who have been n.?U o..?l> k.. ?k?

Remember 'that this liquor selling and liquor ; drinking is the one great battery of hell, manned chiefly by the devil himself, and is shelling the church of Christ, slay:ng your brothers all around you, and you stand as watchmen on the walls of Zion and must cry out with warning to those around you. Arise as soldiers of the cross and silence forever this destructive j agency of the devil.
