When a man is afflicted with political hydrophobicus, he neith er looks to the right, nor to left, but continues on his way scatter ing his poisonous saliva, with which he tries to inoculate those he comes in contact with. Our friend Jones, of Davis, shows symptoms of rabies in his letters to the press when he at tempts to discuss the liquor ques tion, to the extent that he sees no good in those who .do not agree with him. and because they do not agree with him he charges them with insincerity and treachery. There are men in South Carolina who had every confidence in the efficiacy of the dispensary law when it was first put into operation-they regard ed it the best solution of the vexatiousproblem,but after many yearsof trial, they have reached the conclusion that the State dis pensary is not only a financial failure, but that it contaim deadly germs, which if not erad icated soon, will inoculate oui entire body politic, and result ir leporsy,and these men,taxpayers and intelligent, patriotic and sin. cere, realizing the future awful ness of a continuance of this in stitution of corruption, havE sanely determined, if there is a possible way to rid themselves of this curse, which they tried as an experiment, and have beer convinced it is a disappointment to their hopes, have determined to get relief, hence, they havE joined in the cry to destroy thE State dispensary, some of them wanting prohibition, others lo. . cal option, but both want to be rid of the State dispensary. and because of this change in theh attitude, Mr. Jones would have the "wool hats stard firm and bE undismayed," and look upot those who will no longer stand *for the State dispensary,as trait ors. The Reform movement was laujiched upon a platform o: principles, the State dispensary was not one of those principles, but the principles contained in that platform are as necessary today as they were in 1890, and more so, because, today there is more corruption in our govern ment than there was then: taxes are higher and growing higher, new offices are being created every year, politicians who get into office hold on longer, and the rotation idea is a nullity: the public service is not impro ved, and such a thing as free speech and free action is a farce. It was said before 1890, the StatE was ruled by an oligarchy, bui even if that was true, it must have been an honest one, as. not withstanding the charge of "in cipient rottenness." and "being bamboozled and debauched,' there has been no corruption un earthed, and those in control, whether, "aristocrats" or "one gallus", must have conducted the affairs in an honest, econo mical manner. How has it been since? How is it today? Because men see the principles of 1890 being trampled uinder fopot by the leaders who were en trusted with them, and they will not stand for it, those who will not open their eyes to conditions as they exist, charge treachery, and whenever an independent spirit rises up it effects them the same as a crystal stream of water effects a mad dog. The editor of THE~ TIMES de nies having at any time changed his political principles. He was a strong supporter of B. R. Till man, the chosen leader of the Reform movement, but because of that, he did not lease himself for life to Tillinan,whether right or wr-ong, or even if right, there was nothing in that support which bound him to the personnel of the man, or men. Has Till man adhered to the principle of "rotation in office"? But our op position is not to Tillman, it is to-his system of liquor control, and his interference with matters he should leave alone. We think, he has enough to do in wielding his pitchfork in Washington. without attempting is dictate the course his lpeople at home should take in matters concern ing them. If the entire dispen sary system was wiped out to morrow there would be nc treachery to the reform move ment if support be refused tc Tillman, for the reason, the re form cause never contemplated taking away from the people thE right of local self-government as the State dispensary advocates are want to do, nor did the re form cause contemplate giving any man. or- men, life tenurt in office. Our own position on the liquo> question is today what it has al ways been. The tiles of this news paper will show that we .doubted the wisdomn of attempting tc force the dispensary system ox communities where it was noi wat-ted: we h re aavys conten (led tihtt to be. coisistenit with democratie princi;les the people should be given an opportunity to vote upon this matter, and the majority rule. It will be remem bered, while still an avowed sup porter of Tillman, we introduced the first measure, in the Legis lature, looking to the carrying out of this democratic principle 'the people to vote on the ques tion of Prohibition, Dispensary. or License, and give to each county the system its iajoritY expressed at the hallot box:,tlhe ballot being taken separate and distinct from an election for otlice, and we believe had this proposition prevailed, and it would have, had it not been for the influence of interested politicians and "76 corn." South Carolina would have solved the vexatious liquor problem. the State freed from the nauseous conditions which exist, and this pesky whiskey business would not be a factor in deciding qualification for public oftice and trust. WRONGFULLY ACCUSED. The Hon. George R. Jones of Davis, will have to, after read ing last Saturday's News and Courier, take back what he charged that paper with in his ;Hurrah for Tillman and the Dispensary" letter in last week's TIMEs. The News and Courier has been for a considerable time publishing clippings favor able to Tillman, and in the issue we refer to, it reproduced a good. or rather a large pavt; of M'. Jones' letter, as well as other clippings in praise Mr. Jones' political idol. Therefore we think when Mr. Jones says"The News and Courier is re-intro ducing its crafty schemes of 1890 for the overthrow of Tillman by copying from many little six for a quarter journals in intelligence and in their conception of fair treatment, and are heralding their spleen and spite all over the State and the country gen erally, to down Tillman," he has either not been keeping up with the policy of the News and Courier or his zeal for Tillman and the dispensary will not allow anything .or anybody to yell "hurrah for Tillman and the dis pensary as loud as himself." In our judgment, instead of discriminating against Sena tor Tillman, the News and Cou rier has discriminated in his favor, to the extent that wonder has been expressed by many that the News and Courier does not reproduce strong articles both against the State dispen sary, and the dispensary confer ence to be called prior to the regular Democratic convention, which have appeared in weekly newspapers, these articles being of interest to many of the News and Courier's readers, and cau tioning the voters of the State against, by iridifference, per mitting the politicians capturmng the Democratic convention to make the support of the State dispensary a requirement to run for office. or vote in the primary.

The recent announcement of Hon. M. .F. Ansel, candidate for governor, stating his position on the liquor question. reminds us of that ditty entitled, 'Moth er May I go to Swim." Mr. An set advocates local option in piece meals, and local self-gov ernment managed and control led at Columbia. Greenville has excellent material for guberna torial honors, men who advocate local self-government without clipping pieces from it. What is the matter with Col. B. A. Mor gan, or Hon. Joseph A. McCul lough, either will make an ad miral exponent of local self-gov ernment, a fundamental princi ple of the Reforns movement, which has been ignored. There are some newspaper ed itors whose conception of Demn cracy is about as clear as mud. They seem to imagine a grip on Tillman's coat-tail constitutes Democracy, and that Thomas Jefferson wats a pigmy Democrat, compared with Tillman. We should like for some of these would-be teachers of . Democracy to define what ~a Democrat is, and then figure out for us, how theyiake Tillman an ideal Demn ocrat, when he is a Protectionist, anot-and-out principle antag onistic to Democracy. There are other Democrats who favor pro tection just like Tillman, and we are one of them,- but that had nothing to do with the co'ftes tion of those who would n< recognize a democratic yiincip unless it had -a cork ,:jamm' down in its mouth, or Ben Ti man's name upon it in larp ak letters. a KRASNOFF-WILENSKY.

CHARGE OF THE WOOD BRIGADE. Verses Which Were Read During Thursday's Session by John Sharp Williams. In the house Thursday Minority Leader John Sharp Williams read a revised edition of the 'Charge of the Light Brigade." written by a member whose identity was not disclosed, dur ing the discussion of the recent fight in the Philippines, in which women and children were slain. Mr Williams said the poem was called "The Charge of the Wood Brigade," or what the heathen called "The Mas sacre of Mount Dajo." As it appears in The Record, is as follows: -Chased them from everywhere. Chased them all onward Into the crates of death. Drove them-six hundred: -Forward. the Wood Brivade: Spare not a one.' he said. -Shoot all six huncired "Forward. the Wood Brigade: Was there a man afraid, Not tho' the soldier knew. Heathen had blundered. Savages can't reply. Heathen can't reason why. Women and children die. Forced in the crater of death, Forced with six hundred. Cannon to right of them. Cannon to left of them. Cannon in front of them. \'olleyed and thundered. "-Stormed at with shot arnd s.hell. Women and children fell Into the jouts of eth. Into the mouwh of heath. "Flas~hed althe sabres there. Flashed as they turned in air. Sabr'ing the women there. Charging the women, while All the world wondered. Stified by cannon smoke, Men, women, children choke Women and children Reeled from the bay'net stroke In death not sundered: Families slaughtered there - All of six hundred. "Cannon to right of them. Cannon to left of them. Cannon in front of them. \Volleyed and thundred. Stormed at with shot and shell. While child and mother fell. They that had loved so well: Thrust into jaws of deat!b, Trapped into mouti of hell. Not a babe left of them Left of six hundred. What shall such blood-thirst slatke? Co ask Hell-roaring Jake.

A man is seldom disappointed in love until after he gets married. Some men marry wvidows because they are too lazy to do the courting themselves. When a young man goes to cour~t and pleads guilty to being in love, he ought to get a life sentence. A bicycle built for two isn't in it for a minute with a rocking chair built for one and occupied by two. A pair of lovers -ma-y --be talkative enough in public.- but when they arc alone they are always sure to be close mouthed. Wheu the average girl is pressed to tell a man she loves him, she never says a word, but lets him keep right on pressing.
