I The Lexington Dispatch! Burned April 25th; rebuilt July 19, 1891. G. M. HARM AN, Editor and Publisher. LEXINGTON, S. C., WEDNESDAY. MARCH 18. 1SS6. AS TO WHISKY SSIXIN3. Judge Earle is making a commend, able effoit to enforce the Dispensary law according to the provisions laid down in the'statute books, and seems determined to force Dispensary authorities to obey the law in reference to the sale of intoxicating liquor?. In this he is right and will be up held in his good work by every law loving citizen, irrespective of paity or factional affiliations. We are glad that public attention has been directed to the violations of the law by dispensers, or rather the erroneous interpretation of the law Iput upon it by those who are at the head of the State liquor business and the consequent wrong instructions to the county dispensers. When the law was first enacted we, in common with many other good people, regarded it as a great improvement over the open saloon system, in that it removed to a large extent many of the inducements to use intoxicating liquors as a beverage, hence we were anxious that the new system lor tut? ifgUlttWUU Ui LUC nuwn; iness should be given a fair and imi partial trial so that it could be practically demonstrated whether it would work the reform in whisky drinking as promised by throwing striBg( nt restrictions around its sales to make it impossible, exceedingly hard and (troublesome at least for minors, habitual drunkards and persons addicted tothe immoderate use of it, ta purchase whether intoxicated or nof, and in the event of its failure to work the reform intended by its enactment, after it should have been given a reasonable trial, then do away with it and adopt prohibiten pure and simple. Unlike many of our contemporaries we did not nor do we believe yet I that it was the intention of the original friends of the system to adopt it solely as ameans of raising a revenue for the State. This was in our opinion only a secondary consideration, else the provisions governing its sale would not have been near so severe a ad more favorable to its unrestricted . purchase. If the law was intended r%a r? oAnron yvf rnronno tho I^T O\JXTZLJ t?0 C* OVUVVV V/X iV?vuuv vwv ? cumbersome safeguards thrown ^ around its sale, woul have not been Bp put there and to say that they p- were put there only as a blind to ^ screen the real object of the law, and to deceive people as to the real object and intention of the law are assertions not suscepitable of a logi cal conclusion. We must consider conditions not develop theories to prove wrong intentions, and the condions existing prior to the fall of 1884, points to but one conclusion, that of a faithful observance of the law by Commissioner Traxler and his Board of Control, for had the law been violated in regard to the sale of liquor, an opposition press, Bench and Bar would have most assuredly discovered it and public attention directed to it at a time when the conviction of the guilty paities could have been easily secured. There have been open violations of the law since that time, however, in more particulars than one. In the first place, it has been alleged that there are dispensers acting under instructions from those high in authority, who do not carry out the law in reference to signing applications for the \ purchase of whisky; in selling it to minors, intoxicated persons and per I sons addicted to its use. To such an extentjhas this evil been practiced that Governor Evans has been forced to issue other instructions to the several county dispensers insisting upon a strict obeyance of the law. It is a known fact that half pint and pint flasks now in use do not contain full measure, and some say that the whisky sold is either of an inferior quality or is adulterated. Judge Earle is doing a good work j in this respect and should and doubt- j less will receive the thanks of the people of the ntire State. The manner in which the Kentucky Legislature is now behaving in regard to the election of a United States Senator to succeed Senator j Blackburn, is simply a dishonor to j that State. Under orders from Gov. ! I Bradley the militia took charge ol | tie State house and guards placed in | the corridors to prevent persons not j members of the General Assembly j I from enteriug. The greatest excite- J I rnent prevailed for awhile and bloodI shed was narrowly averted. The I action of the Governor in calling out I the militia is strongly condemed and a proposition to institute impeach- ! I inent proceedings against him was I seriously entertained by the DemoI cratic Senate. It is strange that I men claiming to be intelligent and i I rational beings will, ia the discussion I of political matters, allow their pas Baa sions to get the upper hand of their ; ^ judgment to do things which stains j Bft ibe name of their State with reHBproach and dishonor. i i President Cleveland has permitted the joint resolution compelling the Secretary of Agriculture to purchase and distribute seeds, to become a law without his signature. Obituary cf Miss Harriet Hinlcch Simmons. Died, in Lexington, S. C, on the 31st January, 1S9G, Miss Harriet Kinloch Simmons, third daughter of the late Dr. Thomas Hayne Simmon^, in the seventy sixtbyear of her age. The deceased was a lady of rare mental attainments, combined with unusual personal attractions and charm of manner. She inherited largely the sterling traits of the race of patriots from whom she sprung. Her great grand father was the lamented Maityr Hayne, whose wife, for whom the Martyr took the risk of the sad fate which befell him. also spruEg from the sterling Revolutionary hero of the Islands of Carolina, Dr. Woi. Hutson. She was one of the few, perhaps the only one, of the great grand daughters of Col. Isaac Hayne, living in January, 1S9G. But over and above her mental and personal endowments her Christian graces were most conspicuous. Her mother's Bible was the dearest book on earth to her, and she prized its golden rules and precepts, above rnhips. She cherished it as the only casket, within which is contained the pearl of great price. She was a devout communicant of the Episcopal church, and by her life and conversation in the quiet walks in which shedwelt, outside the gay circles of society, she let her light shine to benefit those friends and acquaintance who enjoyed her friendship Therefore, we mourn not beside hei grave as those who have no hope. She shall not lie there loBg. She is planted in the likeness of Christ's death, that she may rise with Christ to the resurrection of eternal life. Should we not praise rather than mourn, when one we love, who is full of days and full of grace, sets like the sun behind the horizon of time ' Why weep ye then for her, who having ' won The bound of man's appointed years, at last Life's blessings all enjoye3, life's labors done Serenely to her final rest las passed: While the soft memory of her virtues, yet Lingers like twilight hues, when the bright, sun is set/' The writer is lifted into the lonely observatory and deserted ha 1 vays of memory and finds himself with tin deceased in scenes long past away. How soft the lights, how tender the shadows in which that pictuie lies! How like the silver notes cf Curfew .bells across the silence of years, comes the tones it fiing'st. The voiceless counsels that lock through ihe visionary eyes of our departed ones, steal with resistless power into our hearts and sweep the clouds away and show us visions of that real life beyond. "What means that dim, far away look that often stamps its image on the face of the aged? It is not the mere fading of interest in the drama of life, a deafness to the cry of the woes and the music it represents. No, indeed, it is rather a reflection of the vision of that f. r brighter light and more enchantii g music from the realms of the great beyond. But I pause, for? "Out on the sea there are billows That never can break on the be.icb, So in the soul there are feelings That never can float in'o speech." 4-Vn-w* nc i l-i rs T* AltT* UV/j LUCJ-Jj C40 bUC Ob/UgUiU^ V/JL JVMi pines are breathing a sad requiem over her newly made grave, I crave the privilege of weeping a tear with a sigh of lament by the side of her bier. "And we who wait upon the stand To watch the loved receding face And see the pale and shadowy hand Wave us onward and upward in the race.'* are comforted and strengthened whilst we are waiting through the Jong and dreary night, and watching 'mid the gathering shadows ' For the morning's promised light." T. S. Arthur. ,> Batesburg Locals. To the Editor of the Dispatch: The weather for some weeks has been of a nature to encourage farm work and in consequence no news has been circulated, as ail were busy in field and garden. The sale of the factory and bank and effects next Saturday is all the talk. It is bard to conjecture as to either sale as probable purchasers are evidently keeping their own counsel. The planting of corn was suspend- | ed for the last few days on account : of the intense cold. i Guano sales continue quite heavy I and the end is not yet. The gardens are beginning to look as if greens are coming. The peo- ! pie seem to have planted largely of ' vegetables, especially Irsh potatoes j which augurs well for the future. A dearth of news appears to have settled over the entire community? ; but will likely be drawn as the polti- j cal pot gets to boiling?not a single ; candidate has as yet signified a surrender to the wish of the dear peo- j pie for his services in the future. I We hear ominous whisperings that ; this campaign will be celebrated as J a "Battle of the Giants.'' "So mote it be." There is abundance of excellent material in our county and we need not fear as to good men coining to the fore. We notice that the Legislature has adjourned and if the benefits of the session just closed are equal to the length of the time it consumed, we surely are on the eve cf great prosperity. We note some wholesome legislation enacted and other acts that appear of doubtful advant age, still future experience may demonstrate the wisdom of even these, but we are unable to see everything clearly just yet. "We are sorry to record no marriages lately, aid rejoice that there and no deaths to chronicle. It seems that our friends up in Saluda are still not entirely agreed is to which shall have the court house. It must be a luscious plum as they are all so clamorous for it. Considerable railroad talk is heard but can't hear the whistle yet, still ere long we expect that both factory and railroad will be iu successful operation and then we have high hopes of continued prosperity. Among recent visitors to our town we note A. L. Hartley, Miss Lessie Haitiwanger and Miss Beaulah Fox of your village, also that sturdy citizen D. Hipp, of Pomaria, spent part of last week in our town, also - ? - .1 I M 1 J. it Uloy ol tne AiKen oar, gave us a brief call, accompanied by his fair bride.

The Battle of the Giants, To the Editor of the Dispatch: I will state that I am forced in self defense to reply to Mr. H. D Taylor's gross misrepresentations. I said I did not understand if it was a case for my court or General Sessions. Messrs. Taylor and Amiek signed an agreement before me several }Tears since to settle their' differ ences and they would abide by the location of the road by arbitrators Mr. Taylor says: "he dismissed it at the preliminary hearing by hearing the defendant's side and not listen ing to the prosecutor's side''?his words. The case was heard in open court before mauy witnesses at Cha pin, that will ceitify that Mr. Taylor, the prosecutor, was the only witness sworn and gave evidence?that was sufficient. "When he was cross ex arnined he admitted that a diagram showing the location of the present road was "about right." When asked - * - ? ** i il i i the arbitrators aid not say in men certified agreement, which wafsho?vn him, that the road must go on his line until it got to the creek? his answer was, "if they said so it mus! be sc." When I found out by his own testimony that he had a road oi bis own choosing and not the five years' road as located by the arbitrators to take the place of the old road, I was convinced that I had the tangle out of the case?I threw it up as any one else would or should have done. Hearsay evidence is not law as Mr Taylor very well knows?he or any one else can ask the Solictor if what | I said in my former article is net correct. When Mr. Taylor dons the ermii e of a little country judge and in his "official conduct'" pass upon a case an.l <;say th re is nothing in it"? he would not wish me to have the presumption to say there is something in it. "0, consistency, thou art a jewel!" When a case is made out by affidavit, as the law directs, I shall investigate? but I shall never fall so low as to be bulldozed or c joled to perpetrate an act against my judgment of what is just and right. Ah, too often, through the hard ness of their hearts and reprobacyof their minds, meu, through their jealouscies and little petty spites and prejudicies are not seeking or wanting justice. Oh! that every one would learn that he is his brother's keeper, and do unto ethers as they would have others do to them, and read the parable of the good Samaritan who administered great comfort to an enemy? showing that every one is our neighbor. The time is coming when one mightier than frail man will pass sentence that some people will pronounce unjust. I give notice that I will not reply to any further misrepresentations. J. W. Dkhh R. ? A Card from Dr. \V. T. Erooker. Tu the Editor of the Dispatch: Say for my friends, that my worst enemies have never accused me of being "on the fence' on political questions or any others, and that when the public feels any interest in any views I may have, I hold myself ready to express them fully and frankly as always. I am habitually silent when I have nothing to say. I am not willing to assume that j the people care anything about what I believe, and shall not reply to the fling of ' Citizen."
