13ov. Tillanan Dofn#% thie Courts to Ausul thi
the Evann Aet MC
COLUMBIA, S. U., Jan. 5 -In no pub- th
Ic natter has Uovernor Tillman ever d
lisplayed such unswerving determina- cot
ion as in the matter of the Evans Dis- for
pensary law. The opposition to the sh(
av, that comes from amiost every al
juarter of the Stato, only seems to a
nake him more determined, and he Rie
who thinks that there is anything else tilt
,ut very lively tiUnes a head, is a very sel
inuch mistaken iim. hal
Never before or since the passage of ha'
the act did Governor Tillman have a rui
word to say in regard to the dispensary n
sheme till last, night, and then he dis
pIlIyed his feeling in regard to the mat pri
co
or in langrage and manner that does co
,,ot permit of inisconstr uction.
When G,vernor Tillman was asked
About the fk.ture of the law, and the op. ar
1)o4ition that it was likely to incur in ar
Lhe courts. he suddenly became calm a ed
look of 'imilinching determination over- Cl
sioreadI his countenance, and Ie replied: col
'Y ou may just say for me that that bill er
will go intoeffecton.July 1 next, as cer- r
Lain as it is an act, and it will be e r
forced too." er
"Even if the courts should inter- s
al
veim?" all
eYes, despite the courts or anythiag O
else."ti
The remark was made to the Gover
nor that it was very likely that the en
forcenipt of the law in the larger cities cr
would amount to about as much as the a
enforcement of the Sunday liquor law, to
lie said that that would t)e left to him, to
and hm guaranteed that the law would
be enforced to the letter even in Char- ctl
Cl
lest on, or those who violated It would tie
either pay dear for the violat -in or go frc
to i he penitentiary. nit
The Gvernor further went on to say ni
that he was very much surprised to see du
that one or two county treasurers h ad 9
given the liquor men certifled receip's W
for the $1iK, for the year, specifying for
wh4t the amount had been paid, when
they had been specially instructed to o
merely give a receipt for the amount. bri
lie said "You may be sure that I am n,
going to look into this violation of in- So
structions and as soon as I find out it
what tre-tsurers have disobeyed orders t,
In regard to the issuing of these receipts tl4
I will relieve them of their duties and an
their care for the treasury of the State, pri
by removal, and appoint, dispite prima- to
ries or anything else, men who are cap- vi
able of taking instructions." cy
lie says he instriicted the Attorney W<
Gem-ral, after a consultation to send tir
telegrams to the treasurers before he fo
went away, informing them what to
course to pursue in regard to the giving th
of receipts. It may be, he sa3 s, that th
some ot the treasurers did not get these to
notices, but he will give each a hearing Al
before he chops their heads off. Said eu
lie, "Nobody is, or can be, a part of the pC
government, wlto won't uphold the laws fo
as interpret.red to him by the proper au- th
thorities." w
What will be the outcome of all this of ti
course remains to be seen, but the Gov- j0
ernor was never more determined to 10
have his way in his life. t
An administration man of legal repu- ir
tation was asked about the effect of the la
isiiing of the county licenses yesterday. gi
lIe said that every body seemed to be p
laboring under a misapprehension. The t
county treasurers had no right what- t
ever to issue a license. They merely tt,
received the money upon whih a mu- tc
iicipality could issue a license for a 01
year. Their receipt made no difference it
at all. If it came to a legal right the p
imuniic'ipalit.y wouild have t.o do the light- .
inIg anid not t,he county. TIhis seems to et
be the key note of that threat thle other ti
day that, the miiunicipaihties wouild lose bi
their charters if they persistedi in iasu
lng yearly licenses.-The State.
The New L. quor Law,.C
Tlhe new law Is better than the old f
law for iinany ieasons: c
1. It, divides the profits in the busi
ness. in the first place, the State mak -
Cs 50 per cent. ona the original purchase, ti
and thmen the county dispenser is al- di
lowedl to charge his customers a profit ii
of 50 lper cent, over the amuount which
lie pays to t he State commissioner for
his liquior-s. T'he proflis 5on thle county k
aispensary is divided equally between t
tne coun ty and the town. 4
2. It secures to the consumer a guar- ai
anttee that he isa getting good liquor at p1
a price much lower than we piesumne
a licensed bar could afford to sell the
same gIoods.
3 '['le county dispenser, being p uid at
salary, is not interested in lucreasing (
the sales.
4. Not, being pecuniarily interested, E
aunt having to make monthly returns, p1
lie will be lessi ap)t to sell to mina~rs, ci
druinkairds or ot,ber persons who would til
abmuse its use. Ic
5. Th'le liquor in the dispensaries are se
sealed upl in quantities front half pint il
to live gallons, and the dispenser has ito of
chiance to "doctor" It. T1he consumer ci
buys it in original packages and must h<
not open it, in the dispensary. ir
ti. The dispensary, we believe, will of- g.
fe i less inducement.s to minors, and in
others t.o loiter about the premises, and ti
lor this reasoni they will be less liable a
to cultivate the dirink habit. The Tr
great ohyjctioii to o,pen bars is the w
remptattoni they offer to the young. bi
Mlen who have formed the liquor habit g<
w ill, in many in4tances, get it,, no mat- m~
ter whether we have bars or not, bitt if in
we do not have bars the boys are more re
safe from the dangers of intemperance.
Th'e chief ol'ject, andl aim of the temn
l.erance people Is to save the young.
'hiey can do next to nothiing with tnose ir
who have already formed the drink is

W Asit I N(uiToN, Jani. 4.--Senator Is
Warren, from tue select committee on di
woman sutlfraQe, today reported to the hi
Senate a joint resolutin to amend the cc
Constit,ut,ion, extendmig the right of stuf. is
lirage to women. It provides that the ti
right of ci izenshiip shall not, be denied h
'r abridged by tbe Unit.ed States or by r
any Stat,e on aceount, of sex, and that
Congress shall have p)ower; by ap
p)ropriate legislation, to enforce tis
provisioni. Mr. Vance submitted a ri
minority report, which states that In the 0r
fIrst session of the Forty-seventh Con- M~
giess a similar report was made by this St
committee, accompanied by the views of ei
the dissent,Ing members, and the mliori.
ty believe that it cannot (do better than

Diabolical Incendiaries. r
LEXJNoTnON, V ,Dec. 27.- The Shaw si
Brothers' lair-' general mercantile y
store, located at ifock bridge Baths, in y
thtis county, was oestroyed by fire hast eri
night; loss, $5,000; insurance, $3,000.
The proprietors narrowly esaped with
their hives, as all the doors had been 8&
fastened with chains from the outsIde ai
by Incendiaries, whose purpose seem. d ot,
to be to burn the property and the oc- wi
cnnantsa as well. "
Keep Down the Aereage.
rhe Augusta 0hronicle is one of the
et practical and farseeing papers. o
it we know of, and what it says on r
et subjects is worthy of considera
a. In a recent issue it said: "If
i cotton planters of the Solith can be I
rortunate next year as not to pro- h
we more than eight million bales of
ton, they will be on the high road to
iune. The present crop will fall t
irt of last year's over two million 0
es. While this may be regarded as 11
isfortune by some People, we have e
doubt that it will prove a blessing. li
,d this present crop approximated N
it of last year, cotton would now% be I'
ling at six cents. This price would C
re impoverished the South and C
nied our people. We have had a U
,row escape from bankruptcy. Our a
niters-forced by the starvation
ces that prevailed last season-were
npelled to curtail I ho cotton acreage. M
ey planted more grai and other ti
4 crops. The harvests were good. 0
e enforced cotton acreage and the si
rer yield ot other crops have result- a
advantageously. If the same wise t
icy is pursued next year, the price of e
ton will be ten eents, and our farm- I
will be free from debt. Like the S
kin growers of the west, the cotton si
ners of the south have been impov- tl
shed by over-production. This a
mul(l be avoided. We know t.hat our
lance friends maintain that it is not
3r production, but under-consump ic
n that has caused the decline in the
ce of wheat and corn ai cottuh- P
.t the fact that, a nine million hale '
op sold as low as 6% cents, and that ,
iossible seven million bale crop has
d as high as ten cents would seem )
concltle tne argument in favor of
Itheory that over-production brings e
rvation prices. In any event, the (
ton producer will make no mistake ti
Ct spring, if he does not depart i
in the policy pursued at the begin a
ig of the present year. The more 0
tin and food crops the south pro
ces next year,the more independent i
LI our farmers be a year hence." 0

A l1right Outlook. t
rhe St. Louis Republic thinks the
Llook for the South is exceedingly
ght. It says the rise in cotton dur
the past few weeks has imi-Ade the
ath about $100,000,000 better off than r
vas at the middle of October. Any- k
ly can figure it "it for himself on t
basis of a 6,500,000 bale crop and a
advance in price from 7 cents in if
ce a Pound to 10 cents The results i
the South of the great Democratic A
,tory cannot be so easily calculated, I
tinues the Republic, but they ate a
orth in actual money value many
nes $100,000,000. The policy of tariff c
r revenue will be worth a great deal n
every Southern State, by enhancing i
B exchange value of its cotton crop, t
us helping to pay its land mortgages v
Scotch money lenders. In the South i
.Iantic States and the Gulf States
St of the Mississippi, Harrison's pro
sed policy of enacting the force bill,
r the sike of the dozen tariff bills
at were supposed to be in it, acted
ith a paralyzing force that can be es
nated only by the manifestations of
y and renewed energy that have fol
