Governor Ellerbe has been severely criticised by his enemies for what thev call "ignoring the militia," when the truth is that instead of ignoring the militia, he made morc appoint ments from the militia than was act ually their due. In the First Regi ment now at Chickamauga Lieut. Wy att Aiken, at the request of Editor Wilson of the Press and Banner of Abbeville, prepared from the records a table which shows the regiment to be composed of 1,111 men; out of this number 930 are volunteers and did not belong to the militia and ISI 'were members of the State militia. The record shows that only 9 volun teers received commissions and 24 militiamen were commissioned. This record further shows that Governor Ellerbe, in appointing field officers, was exceedingly parfial to the militia and yet politicians are nagging at his heels about not giving the militia more. Did the militia of this State respond? In every town over the State the Governor's call was treated very much like it was treated here; the militia were otherwise engaged and the ranks had to be filled up from the plow fields from among those who did not belong to the mi litia. It is true, a great many of the militia boys were thrown out on the examination, but take the rosters of every company which responded and it will be seen that a majority did not belong to the State militia. The Governor did not ignore the milita in making his appointments for high positions, but he could not give places to all the applicants and the disappointed -are kicking. He was partial to the militia was very natural, because he wanted the troops officered with men who had some knowledge of military tactics and it was for this reason that the militia men received more commissions than those who volunteered without being members of the militia. Recently the Governor appointed a colonel, lieutenant-colonel and a major for the Second Regiment and who did he appoint? CoL. Jones, one of the best known militiamen in the State; Major Henry Thompson was promoted to a lieutenant-coloneley and Capt. Eaves was appointed major. The two last named were militiamen. Thompson, the former captain of the famous Darlington Guards, and who is so much of a soldier that when other companies were throwing down their arms he obeyed Governor Till man's orders, and although the scene of action was at his home, he and his company did full duty all through the deplorable Darlington trooble. Eaves went to Columbia with a comn pany and being unable to get his full quota in time, rather than impede the progress of the State in making up her share, magnanimously gave way and permitted his meu to join another company that the -regiment might be completed. In these last appointments as wvell as the first, every one admits the Governor made good selections, but the disappointed must be revenged and they are doing thei'r utmost to punish Ellerbe in the election. ENTIRELY IMPRACTICAL. This is a year of many views on the liquor question. Some hold that the best solution and one which will give the best results is to return the con trol to individuals, with the present dispensary restrictions, and charge a high license fee. This plan, accord ing to the advocates of such a scheme, would drive out the little rum shops and put the traffic in the hands of re sponsible dealers. Others think that a better way to solve the knotty prob lem would be to take away every re striction and allow everybody to man ufacture and sell without paying a revenue, they claiming that the stuff would be so common that the drug ged liquors would be run out of the market and there would be less drunkenness. Then we have others who desire the abolition of the use of liquor entirely, and still others who would only want liquor for medicinal purposes. As we understand it many of the advocates of prohibition are in reality they want the state to control the liquor as it is now doing, with all of its present restrictions, but with the addition that liquor shall not be sold as a beverage-to be sold only for medicinal, mechanical, scientifical and sacramental purposes. With all due respect to those who are advocating such a scheme we will say thatif such a law is enacted it will have the effect of producing more liars than this country ever heard of before; the drinking man wanting his liquor will be sure to find himself in need of the liquor for one of the four required purposes and if necessary will take in all four of the requirements to carry out his purpose. Such a scheme is entirely impracticable and will not do. WAR. The war continues to fill columns of interest in the newspapers, and since the surrender of Santiago there seems to be nothing doing at the front. The flag of the nation floats over Santiago and our troops are in full possession of the city, but unless peace is soon declared we fear that the beginning has only been had; if the Spaniards hold out in their fool hardiness to fight to the last ditch the result will be more sacrifice of life with no possible chance for the Spanish arms. The Castillians are doomed; they have no fleet of war ships und the soldiers they have in Cuba are in a destitute condition, with the source of supply cut off. Never was there a more hopeless army, and for them to continue to hold out is a total lack of humane in stincts. When the war began it was claimed to be an act of humanity on the part of our government to free Cuba from the oppreksions of Spain. On the floors of Congress it was vehemently denied there was any intention to reach out for other lands. Now what have we? Already Hawaii has been annexed, the Phillipine Islands, Porto Rico, San Juan and other Spanish possessions will be ours, and before long we expect to see Congress man ufacturing new States out of the new acquired territory, yet Cuba was only to be made free upon humane grounds. In our humble judgment Uncle Sam has become intoxicated with his victories, and unless something turns up the war will be prolonged into the next national campaign, for the ben efit of the politicians now in power and profiting by the hostilities. Ev ry move made so far has been di rected in such a manner that the au thorities at Washington get the credit and what is that for, if not to make political capital for the Rtepublican party? This war has made Republi can success a certainty and as far as the Democracy is concerned it may as well not hold a convention for the next election and let the Republicans take it by default. Prohibition can only be had by de grees and those degrees can come with every good citizen holding up the hands of the authorities, stop the violation of the dispensary law and as time goes on bring about stricter regulations. Once the law obtains the sanction of the people, and the bickerings brought about, by politi cal differences have ceased, in our opinion the dispensary will prove it self a great temperence measure. We believe in enforcing the law against the dispensaries as well as the blind Itigers. If a dispenser is found vio lating the law pull him up and pun ish him the same as any one else. There are lots of people strong be lievers in the theory of prohibition and we may be classed among the number, we believed in the theory so strong that we have never voted for liquor in our life, but we do not propose to let theory blind our prac tical judgment, and under the present conditions we cannot support prohi bition. No State can have prohibition as long as a superior power prohibits the interference with inter-State com merce, and one of the causes for the failure of probibition in Maine and Kansas is that the State authorities are powerless to prevent liquor coming in from abroad. We are told that some believe if the State enacts a prohibition law, the legislature can prevent the shipment of the stuff into the State; to those who have been told so, we will tell them it is not true-it is rot, and Senator Tillman has been working hard in Congress to get that body to pass a law which will allow the States to p~ass a law to control the shipment of liquor. If Tillman ever succeeds, then South Carolina will be ready for prohibition and not until then. ..100 imWAl1D $100.

Every man who dines on vanity The practical way to look at the question now agitating the minds of the people is to ask yourself, will pro hibition prohibit? A Prohibition Governor without a Prohibition Gen eral Assembly will be as helpless as a one-legged man at a kicking match. A Prohibition Governor with a Pro hibition General Asssimbly and without a prohibiticn backing of the people, wouli result in enacting a dead letter law and the iloo.ling the State with illicit liquor. Mr. Feath erstone will not, nor can he do any more towards prohibition than Gov ernor Ellerbe. Give Ellerbe a Gen eral Assembly that will enact a pro hibition law, and be will approve the bill. He has on several occasions so said, and that is all Featherstone can do; neither can make the law. The Philadelphia Ledger (Ind. Rep.) says: "It has been shown that the Hawaii ans were unjustly deprived of self- gov ernment by a hand ful of An erican con spirators in league with the American minister, Stevens, who overawed the natives by landing United States troops. The reasons for the anxiety of President Dole and his accomplices to hand the islands over to this coun try is their keen appreciation of the fact that the natives are apt at any moment to rise and expel the usur pers, and that they would have s5 risen long ago but for the fear of American intervention on behalf of Dole. "The resolution adopted by Senate and House is almost word for word the same text as is found in the trea tv of annexation, which is still pend ing, but which could not commad the necessary two-thirds vote. Con gress may make laws, pursuant to the Constitution, for the government of our own nation, but it has no consti tutional warrant to make any law binding on a foreign nation. Inter national agreements or conventions are properly matters of treaty, to be, initiated by the President and to be come effective by tl consent of two thirds of the Senate. The House of Representatives has no authority in the premises whatever, and yet in violation of the Constitution, it has taken the initiative in the present res olution of annexation, which is to all intents and purposes a treaty. And if we can annex Hawaii by resolution, with the consent of its de facto Gov ernment, but in opposition to the will of its native population, so also by resolution we can annex Ireland, with or without the sanction of Great Brit ain or the inhabitants of Ireland. If a plebiscite were held in Hawaii the natives would quite unanimously vote against annexation. Of the entire population of 110,000, white, brown and yellow, it is improbable that 5,000 are in favor of the surrender of the islands to the United States. The resolution passed by Congress proposes to annex Hawaii as a terri tory. There is no precedent for such a course, and in the opinion of able lawyers no warrant for it in the Con stitution. Texas it is true, was ad mitted to the Union by act of Con gress, but it came in as a State, and Congress has the power to admit States, but no power is delegated to it to annex foreign territory. Why did not the advocates of Hawaiman annex ation propose to admit Hawaii as a State, and cite Texas as a precedent? Simply because they knew the peo ple would be appalled at the thought of giving statehood to the mongrel population of these islands, most of them pagans and incapable of appre ciating our civilization or our institu tions, and vet once Hawaii is brought under the American flag the scemn ing for its admission as a State will begin. 'j he sugar trust might con fidentv count upon it for two Sena tors,and experience demonstrates that the trust usully works its owvn sweet will with Congress.- Besides, the exi encies of party might at any tine onstrain Congress to clothe Hawaii with statehood in order to promote party ends. For many years this has been the sole motive underlying the adission of States, and there is not Ithe remotest probability that Hawaii would prove an exception. In 187G the control of the electoral college turned on one vote. It is not pleas ing to contemplate the possibility in the near future of Honolulu deciding the balance of power between the gold standard and free silver. "We regard the passage of the res olution as a great misfortune to the nation-a misfortune that may coun terbalance the great victories won by Deey and Sebley." Tampa, Fla., July 16, 1898. Editor THE TIES: I will here try and give you some news from this campll. I enlisted June luthl last, in the 19th U. S. In fantry at Springfield, Ill. 1 was sent to Fort McPherson, Ga., with some Ififty others, and wvhen we arrived at the fort it was erowvded and we slept at night for a week in the openf air on the parade ground without blank ets and were poorly fed. We wvere told that wvhen wve reached Tampa it wvould be worse, but wec were sur p~risedt to find it to be untrue. At the end of a wveek a lieutenant camne fromx Tampa and said wve would have to leave Fort Me1herson or starve and we' left the next mornin~g and arrived next day, June 1'9th, at 2 p. Fm. in Tampa. We are encampiled one and a half miles from the city. There are a good many other regiments encamp ed here: ther~e are about :MI,000 sol diers in and near Tampa. I thought we would go at once to Cuba. but it is being talked now that no more soldiers wvill be sent there until fall, and that wye will soon be transferred to Washington, D). C., as it is getting sekly here. There are several cases of ellow fever in the hospital now. We are dilling har d every day. Mot of the reiments~ are recruits ad nee al 'ood deaml of drilling to gt th em in shape. Th le boys suffer fomn the hieat I ere very much. I am the only one in the regiment from S outhi C arolina: thle boys are all from the N orthi and can't stand thle hot wveather. It is nothing to see a man fall and hav-e to be earried to his ~nele Sam paid us ol last Tuesday and most of the boys are broke now. Thr sacanteen inm the regiment weeone can get all the beer lie wants, and al 0knd of:amues run ning all day, and generally inside of twventy-four hours after ipay day one half of the boys are broke. AuLx. J. BRanrr, Waslihinton Letter. (From our regular Correspon dent.) Washington, D. C., July 17.-Since 9o'clock this morning, the inspiring star-spangled beauty of "Old Glory" has been flaunting over the ramparts of surrendered Santiago de Cuba. At t hat hour some 24,000 Spanish troops laid down their arms and submitted to the terms of the surrender. They are to be transported back to Spain byv the United States, according to the terms of the surrender-a condi tion never known to enter into the terms of a surrender before in the whole range of history. And com pliance with that term of the capitu lattion is giving the Administration no little concern; since, it is manifestly impolitic to undertake their transfer i-I American bottoms, as that would require a convcy of warships to pre vent the destruction of the transports by the Spanish after they bad reached the Peninsula Kingdon, bids will have to be invited from neutral ships. Under international law, their trans portation in neutral bottoms would render them sacred against Spanish molestation. The problem of feed ing the troops in the meantime is also giving some concern. It is not thought advisable to let this out by contract as the great Government of the United States cannot afford to suffer its Drisoners of war to be only half fed while it is responsible for them. These troops are virtually paroled prisoneis of war-and under their parole they are not to take up arms again against the United States during the present war. Admiral Cevera is a paroled prisoner of war; but Le is being accorded the court eties due to Lis rank. In fact, he is being treated almost like a royal guest, instead of being treated in any way harsh!v. He has comfortable quarters at the United States Naval Academy, Annapolis, Maryland, where all the officers of the Navy are extending to him every courtesy that would be due his rank were he a visi tor and not a prisoner of war. His surroundings and the natural beauty of the location combine to render his sojourn there a holiday rather than a punishient. It is peculiarly fitting, however, that we should treat him so. He is an accomplished and very court eous and chivalric officer-the pride of the Spanish Navy-the pride of the nation which is reputed to be the most courtly on earth: and it is a feather in (ur cap to excel in our courtesy to him anything ever known before in the annals of international warfare. The United States is teaching the whole world lessons in the science of civilized warfare. Iu battle, our ships and armies show no quarter; but we extend every honorable and tender consideration to a fallen foe. That is commendable and admirab'.e in a private individual-how m.-li more so in a great nation, like ou-:s? We are great enough and brave enough to set an honorable example for the whole world. It is estimated that it will cost us about $45 per head to transport these troops back to Spain, besides rations for some fifteer. days, or not less than SL,500,000 in all. But even this is cheaper than taking Santiago de Cuba by storm. It would have cost at least that much money to have fought the great battle which would have been necessary to take the city by siege, not to mention the great loss of life which would have resulted therefrom; besides, it teaches the whole world a commendable lesson in the science of civilized warfare. But it is not unlikely that the taking of Santiago will prove a dear victory for us. It is the last place on the Island of Cuba which we should have at tempted to take, for it will cost us more men to hold it than it would have taken to whip the whole Spanish army, if all the reports about it be true. It is said to be a veritable cesspool of disease-the most deadly spot in Cuba. And, if that be true, it seems hard to find any wisdom or generalship in singling it out for cap ture as the first important foothold on the Island. Most people think that Havana should bave been the main objective point from the start, and the most cogent reasons seem to favor those who share this view. If Spain does not sue for immediate eace Porto Rico will be next taken, although our purpose, in the begin ning was to free Cuba. The war has been dcflected far awvay from the ostensible original purposes held in view. "I think DeWit:'s Witch HaSzvl Salve is thet finest preparation on the market for p!s" So writes John C.
