As we predicted when the war question was first being agitated, the North and West are reaping a har vest. Wheat is going up with rapid bounds and all other necessaries of liie proportionately. The products of the South remain about the same. The farmers of the West are not get ting the benefit of ibis tremendous rise, it is the speculators who bought up the produce long ago. Dewey's victory at Manila is oven greater than at first reported, and Sampson's fleet is probably at this time off Porto Rico waiting for a favorable opportunity tc - t ':e. The invasion of Cuba will begin in a few days. Troops are being concentra ted at Tampa and other points to be ready to move on a moments notice. It is the intention of the war depart ment to land sufficient men in Cuba to do the work necessary in short or der. Congress in recognition of Deweys magnificent victory has voted him thanks and a $10,000 sword. Hurrah for Dewey. Editor Gonzales, of the C:lumbia State, left Columbia last night en route for Tampa to join the invad ing forces. Mr. Gonzales has the Cuban cause at heart and there is no editor in the Union who has worked more faithfully for it than he. Now his pen is pushed aside and to the front he has gone where we hope he will get the wishes of his heart grati fied. It is reported that the Spanish fleet has retreated to Cadiz. THEY WANiT THE STUFF. All political parties must have money to conduct a campaign and the prohidition party is not an ex ception to the rule. Mr. A. C. Jones chairman of the prohibition execu tive committee has issued a circular appealing for money, and we have no doubt the money collected will be spent for electioneering purposes, but how the prohibition leaders pro pose spending that campaign money will develop later. Imagine a com mittee of clergymen at the polls with crisp bills between their fingers in ducing voters to cast votes for a prin ciple, or if the clergymen feel that such a course would be undignified, the place be filled by an Elder, Stew ard, or Deacon; the campaign mon ey must be spent, and for the pur chase of votes money is a~ mighty good thing. We have never yet seen a prohibi tionist who will admit that he pre fered the bar system to the dispensa ry, but on the contrary they all say if prohibition cannot be obtained they want the Dispensary. When Governor Tillman first under took to enforce the Dispensary law it was entirely experimental, many sincere prohibitionists were anxious that the law should have a fair showing; in the effort to enforce the law the de plorable affair at Darlington occur red. The liquor men united with the opponents of the State administra tion and a terrible condition was brought about-it was an insurrection, and Governor Tillman was forced to put it down; militia companys re fused to respond to his call, many through the influence of those who were opposed to Governor Tiliman's side of the factional fence,it wvas a most unfortunate condition of things and one which will always be regretted; nevetheless the administration could not surrender the government to a lawless mob. Among those who used every effort to thwart Governor Tillman in his efforts to enforce the laws of the State was A.C. JIones,then a traveling salesman for a Northern drygoods concern,now the chairman of the prohibition State Executive Com mittee, and the same Jones who is to-day, calling upon the prohibi tion people to pay the freight for the campaign he proposes to wage this summer. Jones happened to be in Manning the night the Manning G.uards received orders to go to Dar lington, and he joined others to in terfere, and did -succeed in persuad ing all but about ten from obeying orders. We know Mr. Jones; he is a most affable gentleman, and while he is a Prohibitionist, yet be is a red Tillman's faction does. We are satis fied that his prejudices were so strong against the Reform faction that, Pro hibitionist as he is, he would have accepted a return of bar-rooms to bring about the defeat of the dis pensary. We are glad that factional politics has at last been eliminated from the dispensary law and that the question has resolved itself into what is the most practical plan for the best inter ests of the State. There are some still who hope to keep up a factional spirit by fighting the dispensary law, this was recently exhibited in the Charleston convention which wanted the "State outside to know they send to the convention a solid anti-Till man delegation," but the conserva tive people, Reformers and Conserva tives are not that wayand, fortunate ly they are largely in the majority. Mr. Jones, Smith or anybody else, with or without campaign funds will never succeed in successfully oppos ing the dispensary on factional lines.If the Prohibitionists win they will have to convince the people that their plan is practical, and that they are not in league withr "blind tigers," to bring about a condition of free liquor for the overthrow of the element that has had a controlling power in poli tics in this State since 1890. THE STATE WINS. At last the long-looked-for decis ion in the dispensary case from the United States Supreme Court has been rendered in favor of the State, and it is to be hoped that all vexa tious litigation growing out of oppo sition to the law will end, and that everybody will join in and aid the government in enforcing the law. Under the decision the original pack age people will have to strike tent and leave the State. This is a great victory for the State and if the au thorities will go to work and run the "tigers" out there is no earthly power that can prevent the dispen sary from getting as near prohibition as the most ardent advocate of pro hibition can desire. Since there is no longer a question as to the right of the State regulating her liquor laws, we want to see the Governor open up a vigorous campaign agair.st all illicit dealers, wbether they be original package men or "blind tigers." Set the ball in motion; no quarter should be shown those who have deprived the taxpayers of this State out of thousands of dollars. Every last one of them should be seized, their stuff confiscated and the proprietors punished; in this way the State miaht get back some of its losses. One thing is certain, there is absolutely no excuse for the existence now of a "blind tiger" in any town or county in the State. It is true under the decision liquor can be ordered for private use, but with the proper vigilance that matter can be looked after. Watch other States now and see if they do not follow this State in settling the liquor question. The Charleston Critic very strong ly intimates that politics had some thing to do with the refusal of the companies of that city to volunteer, and this to, at a time when Reform ers are making concessions. The News and Courier, failing to prevent the boys outside of Charles ton from volunteering, endeavored to get the government to mobilize the volunteers in Charleston; failing in that also, it is now attempting, from its editorial rooms, to run the camp at Columbia. Of course the com manding officers at the camp appre ciate the News and Courier's solici tude. Governor Ellerbe's millitary ap pointments have given satisfaction to every body except a few who expect ed to be awarded a plum, and those who have made up their minds to damn him anyhow. His enemies admit the appointments are first class and calculated to inspire confidence among the men who are to follow them, but in order to throw a suspi cion upon the governor's motiv'es they charge that he made his selec tions to further his political interests. How absurd? If President McKinley was to order into service an American general with a brigade of Spanish soldiers to invade Cuba would the American people have much confidence in the successful result of the expedition? We cannot see jnuch hope for prohi bition, with a prohibition leader and dispensary lieutenants. The prohi bition party of this State is in, as embarrassing a position since their convention put out a mongjrel ticket: as was the Good Templars a few years ago wvhen they sent one of their leading lecturers to an institute to be cured of the liquor habit.

Attorney General Barber has an nounced himself a candidate for Con gress in the 5th district and we know of no more fitting acknowledgemeut the people of his district could make in recognition of his services to South Carolina, than by electing him to Congress with an overwhelming nm jority.

Onh oc a bottle at R. B. Loryea's drug store. Prohibition and Politics. The prohibition ticket creates but little enthusiasm, even among the strongest temperance advocates, and we do not believe that even its most sanguiue friends have any strong hope for success. The triumphs of candidates nominated by that Colum bia convention does not mean the success of prohibition, but simply a transfer of political power in our State, together with the emoluments of office. Even were the prohibition ticket elected, they could do nothing toward advancing their cause, or changing the dispensary law, without the con sent of the Legislature. The Gover nor, Attorney- General and other State officers would find their hands bound should they try to enforce prohibition in South Carolina without they are backed by the law-making power. Therefore, every reasoning voter will see at a glance that the prohibition contest, as mapped out by the recent convention, cannot ad vance their cause one step, but sim ply means that the leading offices in our State will cbange hands. Gover nor Ellerbe has earnestly striven to enforce our every law, and if the next Legislature abolishes the dispensary, and substitutes therefor prohibition, he will not only approve the bill, but use every power at his command to have the new law enforced. The most ardent prohibitionist could do no more. So one can see at a glance that when the prohibition convention neg lected to demand a separate vote on the leading question of prohibition vs. dispensary, and, ignoring that di rect issue, saw fit to nominate a full State ticket, spiked in with staunch dispensary advocates and including habitual .liquor drinkers, they had lost their- golden opportunity. It matters not howv earnest a voter may be in favor of restricting the sale of intoxicants, or even declaring for strict prohibition he will simply see that in our State contest the only is sue is a choice between candidates, and not the vindication of any great principle. Now, had our prohibitionists de manded that a vote be given the peo ple on whether they desired the dis pensary law or try the experiment of prohibition, then there are thousands of voters who would support the lat ter'. But when an attempt is made to get them to vote for an issue through men, it will prove a dismal failure. It is only a choice between ofice-seekers, and not the vindication of any great principle, and the peo pe will reserve the pirivilege of vot ing for the candidates of their own choice, and not take those put forth by a small convention, and nominated in a committee room behind closed doors. Suppose that the prohibitionists elect their every candid ate, from Mr. Childs, who has Columbia water on the brain, down to "Cologne Spirits" Dan Tompkins, how can they possi bly hope to enforce prohibition in South Carolina unless they elect a House and Senate in full accord with their views?-Piedmont Headlight. MLinv old soldiers now f eel the etfe-ts of the hard service they endured during the war. 3Mr. Geo. S Anderson, of Rtossville, York county ,who saw the hardest kind ot service at the front, is now frequently trou led with rheumatism. "I had a severe at tack lately," be says, "and procured a bot tle of Chamiberlain's Pain Balm. It did so much good that I would like to know what you would charge nme for one dozen bot tles" M1r. Anderson wanted it both for his own use and to supply it to his friends and neighbors, as every family should have a bottle of' it in their home not only for rheu matism, but lame back, sprains, swellings, cuts, bauises and burns, for which it is unqualled. For sale by by R. B. Loryea, diggist. To undertake to make a prohibi tion ticket our of dispensary timber is rather anomalous if not ludicrous. Was it simply a playing at politics or a grab at office? How did they hap pen to put Dan Tompkins and Dr. Timerman on the prohibition tiek et, both of whom are well known frieds of the dispensary? It's funry to see Dan get on the platform and then kick the thing from under him. Dan's not in the declining business. He never was. He wants to catch 'em a-comin, and a-gwine. But it will he a ridiculous spectacle to see old life-long prohibitionists, who hate the dispensary and have fiercely de nounced it and who have organized the movement to make war on it, marching up to the polls to vote for one of its best friends and staunchest supporters. It is a parallel case with voting for a Republican on a Demo cratic ticket. Prohibition timber is not so scarce in this State that anti prohibitionists have to be put on the ticket.--Anderson Advocate. W h(NopIlig C0oih.

Editor THE TYMEs: The farmers are moving ahead with their work. The oat crop has improved very much since the recent rains, and they bid fair to make a full crop with one or two more rains. Corn is unusually small for the time of year. Cotton seems to have a pret ty fair stand, and with the amount of fer tilizer used this season we may expect a full crov.

Private Bryan. After denouncing in severe terms the self-seeking and jealous militiamen of his State for their disgraceful wrangling, Hon. William J. Bryan has offered h:s services as a private for the impending war. He hesitated about taking this step from the fact that the carping and envions elements which fight him on all occasions would ac ense him ot demagogism. But Bryan has volunteered, and the great American people note it with satis faction and pride. Having won an exalted place in the hearts of the people as a civic leader, he proposes to stay with them in the strife of arms. In view of his faithful ness to every duty of citizenship so far the people accept his action in good faith, knowing that it is only in consonance with a career of distinguished fidelity to the public welfare. It is probable that Bryan will go into the war as a private and remain one. It can nut be expected that he will take high offi cil rank, having no niilitary training. His example is therefore inspiring and will doubtless bhing many people to a sense of duty-that of defending the common coun try under all conditions and under any circumstances.
