When the news reached Manning thai majority of the supreme court had decid the dispensary law unconsttutional the w.is a happy expression upon the conut nances of a nuiuber of men who seetmed be saying within themselves. "1 told y so." Even some of our ardent probibitio I ists were delighted, their joy was not c celled by the liquor men. The form were glad because it looked as if the admi istration had received a staggering blo and the latter because of the prospect i again selling liquor. The feeling exhib ed -was a sort of a mutual congratulati kind, and there were others who seemed feel the disappointment of a good liq< regulation law being broken up. Th class had but few open sympathizers j town, even some that favor the dispensai on account of factional politics were han in glove with the opponents of the law. Saturday Dispenser Ervin received a tel gram from headquarters telling him to cla thedispensary until further orders. Mlr.Ervi did so, and among the worst disappointe was a man who has been "cussin" the di pensary ever since its opening. He wei down tWere, tried to get in,.and failing 1 turned off "eussin" his faction for haviE the place closed without giving him notic "Wny,' said he, "I always said and kne the legislature had no right to pass a cor sumptionary law, bnt there is no reaso why the town council can't meet at on and- make the dispenser open up for tb public good."

Eppersori the dispenser at thiq place, was very muc urprised this morning when he came dow> to his place of business to .find that som one had, to all appearances, been tamper ing with the lock on the front door of th dispensary. After endeavoring "to geti the front door without success he weni around to the back door, but also met wit a failure there. He came back to the fror door, and after sometime succeeded in pusi ing from the key hole a key that had bee put there from the inside of the building. On entering the buitling, your corret pedent, with several others, found a bunc of keys with probably three or four doze: thereon of almost every size and shape Going to the back door he discovered thi the bar which always was in place ha been thrown on the floor and the ke taken from the door. Upon examination he found scattere about in different parts of the buildin broken flasks, where the persons or perso: who had been in there bad taken a drin gna left the flasks. From all appearances it is thought~ thi the man or men who committed the rot bery entered the front door with the use< one of the keys on the bunch found, an going to the back door opened thatand pri ceeded to take and carry away as much X and XXX as they wanted. The rogue then made their exit through the back doo. taking with them the key to the back dool It is impossible to say how much whii key was taken, but it is thought that abet 90 gallons was carried away in one qua bottles and gallon kegs. Chief Weeks is working up the case ani has no doubt but that the guilty parties wi soon be brought to justice. It is rather a mystery how the thin could have happened in one of the mai streets of the city. The robbery was ce: tanly very adroitly planned and well e: ecuted. It was done by persons well al quainted with this kinid of work. They Want Names.

Our Congressman Drubs His Slaid n-eres -A Business .Man for Giovernor. Sometime ago we addr.'ssed a ht-ter to Hon. John L. MeLiurn. in which we a called his attention to the various methods re that are being used to affect his influence e- with his coastituentk; among which was an to indirect charge that h had entercd into a n- combination with S:nator Butler by which x. Butler -as to assist McLaurin in securing er appointments and that McLaurin was to D support Butler for the Senate against Gov ernor Tillman. To said letter w- received t- the following reply: in WAsuniGToo, D. C., April 16, 1894. to MR. Loris APPELT. Manning. S. C. )r Dear Appelt: Yor letter of recent date is calling my attention to widely circulated n reports of my being in "combination" with Y Senator Butler in his race for the Senate, d has been received. It is "a lie out of the whole cloth." e- Hitherto, I have paid no at 5e tention to s'anders "circulated" by inter 0 ested parties for the purpose of destroying d the confidence that the people are supposed 6- to have in me. I cannot, however, avoid a it reply to a pointed question, such as you e ask. I shall call "a spade a spade," and ex g press my feelings fully. Last spring when the famous "biacklisting" of the South V Carolina delegation was in progress I soon - discovered that the trouble arose lar-gly n from the administration confounding the e Allianceman adti the Populi"t. In the West e the Peopie' party swallowel the Alliance, and just coming into power, the mistake s was natural in reference to the Alliance e man in the South. If von will remember, i I was not present when 'that disgraceful >f scene occurred in the otfiee of the Pos - master-General, where the a nestion of the Democracy of our respresentatives in Con gress was tested. I felt that the natter of my Democracy had been tried by the peo y ple of the sixth district, and if I suited r them it mattered very little to me whether - I suited anybody else or not. I soon discovered that Mr. Bissell was a big hearted, big brained man,-not much of a politician, but a line lawyer and a thorough-going business man,--the only 1 trouble being that he runs the postoffice 3 department in a business way, instead of I as a political machine. Mr. Talbert and r myself had an additional advantage in not I having defeated ex-members on the spot to wage special war on us. While the issuing of ukases, pronunciamentos, etc., was go e ing onJ kept my mouth shut, and attended r to my own business. Personally, I did not hanker after the distribution of the offices, - for I knew I couldu't suit everybody, and * that every man who made application and a failed would either be a lukewarm friend or e Qn open enemy. I felt, however, that I had a certain duty to perform in reference to, these :postoffices, and made up my mind to do that duty, if permitted by the Postmaster General, and if not so permitted, then the responsibility was taken from my shouldeis. I was pressed from every quarter by Re formers to secure these appointments. You 5 wanted the office at Manning, and suppose I had said: "Oh, I cannot recommend you because Messrs. Latimer and Strait are not recognized !" You would have very prob r ably told me that I was sent to Congress to V represent the sixth and not the third and fifth Congressional districts. I I made a formal request of Senator But ler that he should not interfere with my r recommendations, or if he did, to give a rea 3 son why he should treat me in a different manner from that in which Hon. George W. 3 Dargan had been treated. Senator Butler's - treatment of me was kind, courteous and upon a high plane. He said that in his service in the Senate he had never inter fered in the district of a Congressman, - where he was treated with that considera V' tion due his official position, and would 9 Dot interlere in mine. In the majority of Scases in my district Senator Butler has ,made no recommendation whatever; in 1 some eases, yours for instance, at my re ! quest he joined in the endorsement. It is ntterly impossible to represent South e Carolina without sonie concert of action be - tween the Senate and the House. Senator e Butler has been kind andaconsiderate; Ihave, iin my turn, endeavored to be conrteous, and show proper respe et for his official and - persopal character. -The subject of State polities was never mentioned between us until after the article in the Headlight, (dnc respect for the f eel ings of each preventing even an indirect reference to it. I have appointed to nearly every postoffice in the district, "Tillman ites," of the most marked type without a question being asked, or a pledge being taken from a single man. S" far from any ~appointee of mine feeling that he is under the slightest obligati sn to Senator Butler, Syou felt perfeetly free in you lnst issue to compare him to a "buzzard." My dear A p pelt, what in the name of Heaven is apubelic man to do! Latimer tella me that some of his people are "cussing" him because he hasn't any influence, and some of mine are "cuss g"me because I have. .I have nothing to do with the candidacy 'a of Senator Butler; he has treated me like a ' gentleman, and I shall treat him in the same a way, regardless of consequences. 'The very - first time that State politics was discussed e between Senator Butler and myself, was I after that infamous attack and insinuation t by Gantt of a "trade and combination." I i then deemed it my duty to talk to Senator t Butler, and he said not to pay any atten - - tion to that, that he knew the personal and a political relations between myself and Till man, and did not expect me to do anything - else, but that it need not disturb our per 1sonal and official relations for mec to sup 1 port my friend. -Now, Appelt, I appreciate your kind let t ter, and the motive which prompted it, Sthe past four years have been to me full of Y experiences, and]1 tell you can didly that I have about reached the c~nclusion, that at Ipresent, there is no place in pasblic lire for g a man with any delicacy of feel-ing, con I science or patriotism. k When I think of the dream I had, when we all starte-1 in 1888. to smash "rings," ,t and to have free speech, free thought and a -truly popular government, I do not'want to fsee established as a result a d--spotismi as Sabsolute as there is outside of "Darkest 'Russia;" the Alliance and all those great fi E nancial and governmental issues freighted s with the life or death of a nation, dwvarfed , into the single question of how whiskey -shall be dished out to thirsty souls. Take the situation when I went to Spar t tanburg, after villifying and slandering me t for months, telegrams froin Washington or dered Gantt to ask me certain questions. I I'said that I would support Till-man pro. I vided he stood for the demands of the Alli ance, and actually one of th -ir little crea g tures, a peripatetic school-teacher. whol a wants to be Superintendent of Education, Sdenounced me. SI think Tillman is willing to stand upon his own merit, bat this crowd of sycophants flatter his vanity, and call everybody else "trait-r," when if the test came, like the miserable vultures that they are, they would be the first to turn and rend his vitals. ~fI will follow no man blindfolded, but if I e had been even willing to do this, I would y have died a thousand deaths before I would t, let one of those political "hell-hounds," e that can be bought like a piece of dog meat 3in the market, pop his whip over my back, 3 and drive me cringing to his master's feet. a It is apt loye for Tillman or their country a that infiuences these blatant bawlers. I s know some of the loudest mouthed, who f hate him most. They w~ant an office. This t tells the tale. Governor Tillman dojes not .need help now, he is in the -.ery zenith of )success and power. Let the tide turn, let y danger, defeat, or disaster threaten, and >s then he will see who his friends are. Men who stood shoulder to shoulder when th-. l- battle was thick. Men wilo have the cour s age to differ with him, or the miserable parasites and barnac'.es, that can only exist amid uncleanness, tnd who unless scraped off at regailar inter,'als, eat through the hull and sink the stout -st ship to the bottom of the sea. >r It is mortifying, humiliating, for politics 2- to be upon the low plane, where such ex :>t planations are demanded. Now, as to the :i other question which you ask me about the ie dispensary: I am more than ever convinced id that some modification along the line sug Te gested by me at Spartanburg is a necessity. so The establishment at Columbia, with its to host of officers, is too cumbersome, and the an profit feature is morally wrong. It is better d. to undersell and starve the "blind tiger" than to shoot it; especialy when the beast shoot; back. Besides any law that neces * sitates a standing army for its enforcement dewill fall of its o s-n weight. I am glad that you heartily sir port me in these views. We have had erocgh turmoil and strife in South Carolina. There were old deen. seated abusls and traditions that hLd to be destroyed and ronted out.- Tiillan was the man to do it. His genius'is cssentially de structive, and as he has about accomplished the Senate where he wili find. ernougb abuses to eniploy his genins for the balance of his life. In South Carolina we want something now on the constructive order. We cannot live there in two armed Camps, and if we undertake it, the Federal goyarn ment will put us through another conrse of reconstruction. We do not need an "apist" to prance around cver the State, sqnint one eye, "cuss" and try to play "en Tillman." I think that the soil was exhansted vhn it produced "Ben" No. 1. The squeak of the "squedunk" trying to niasqnierade as the blast of a trumpet, will make us reA-ulons and contemptible. What the State needs now, is a sedative to steady the "old lady's' nerves, and then a good tonic to build up the waste tissue. After so much one X, two X, threc X. and four X, a short course of "Keely enre" would not be a bad invest mont. In other words, we want, "oil on the troubled waters." A good, conservative, business-like Gov ernor, who is not an "imitator." not bril liant, bnt sersibla. will bring us ronnd alright, and the old lady be all the better for the little shaking up she has hld. Thanks for your kind reference t- my political future. If my record. and the zeal that I have displayed on overy oe':v'ion. where our demands are in quetion ntih me to this consideration. wr-!l an1i goad. otherwise I do not want it.
