Editor Gantt repudiates the state ment going :he rounds of the press; that he is opposed to the dispensary law. He favors the law but wants certain changes. North Carolina is the "Prostate State" of the South and the white men of that State are making a heroic ef fort to thi ow off yoke of negro domi nation. Ben Tillman will make some speeches and so will Daniel of Vir ginia and we hope that on the 8th of November the democracy will wrest the government from those now in power. The low prico of cotton has brought forth a large crop of applicants for public position. Every office in the gift of the governor has a host of candidates and every member of the General Assembly is being besieged with "I want you to use your influ ence in my bebalf." The newly elect ed will save themselves a mountain of annoyance if they will refrain from making promises. Spartanburg is to have an afternoon newspaper edited by Colonel T. L. Gantt and it will be a hummer. There is no better newspaper writer in the State than Col. Larry Gantt, and when it comes to a rough and tumble political fight Gantt has few equals in the Union. The editors throughout the State would as soon monkey with a buzz saw as to have a tussle with the fertile brain of the Headlight editor, and when he gets his afternoon paper out where be will have a wider field in which to work, we feel assured that Spartanburg's Evening Star will go twinkling merri ly along the road to prosperity. The injunction issued by Ju ze Mclver in the Sanders-Morrison con tesL .a Berkeley county, is such a se vere blow struck at the Denmer-my primary system that the next legis lature will be forced to take some ae tion. The more we think of Judge Mclver's action the more are we um pressed with the illegality of his act; the fact of the rule being returnable after the general electioc, and that, upon an ex parte statement, part eM which was false, virtually ptit the power of the Judge to fill the of flee in dispute. If no ac-tion 1s taken in this matter, the future primnary will be fraught with dangers-disappoint ed and defeated candidates will secek the courts to thwart the wishes of the people and, instead of the officers bc ing from the people, they are very likely to be from the courts. The communication in this issue signed "citizen" touches upon a sub ject which will interest all of our readers, and they will anxiously wait for an explanation. If there is any one branch of our government, mnore than another that needs strict atten tion and careful culture it is the school branch, and when there is anything which leaves room to suspect extrav agance in the management of the school funds, justice to the officer in charge and to the pub1Le-the tax payers, demands that e .ull and comn plete, explanation be made, backed up with indisputable evider ce. We sin cerely hope that our Scperintendent of Education can do thit:; as he is about to retire from office te'thing1 should be left behind reflecting upon his integrity, or competancy. "George" the body servant of Col. J. H. Tillman aged about 75 years has seen a good deal of the world and come in contact with many kinds of people. He is a veteran of the war between the States, and although a very old man the martial spirit is in him yet. Old George doe's not like the way the officers of the first regvi ment have acted towards Colonel Till mnan and the other day he remarked to a party of gentlemen that 'I wuz born and raised in Sous C:'lina an seen heap ob people, in' de war and' out ob de war, I lob dis here State, but I fear fer de fu'ture, tings b changed suh, when a hell oh a bi fuss is kick up about two nigger be ing licked fer stealing.
