THERE WAS GAMBLING AND WORSE. Elsewhere in this issue there appears a set of resolutions adopted by the town council of Manning relating to the com mends contained in this newspa per on December 9th with regard to gambling during the carnival which recently afflicted this town. The vehement denial of council to the charge, that gain bling went on publicly five days and was only stopped on the sixth, does not come to us as a surprise, we were warned that our comments had angered some of that august body; it was even intimated to us that at least one member contemplated violence. Whether council had any knowledge of the gambling or not we will not say as it is not our purpose to make personal references, but we do say most positively that every day and night during the carnival numbers of citizens, in cluding THE TIMES editor, and members of Council saw the gaming machines at work and money passing between those engaged in the games. This gamoling went on publicly until Saturday along about mid-day, when it was stopped by the May or, we are informed If the authorities had reason to stop the gaming on Saturday| they had the same reason to stop it w .en it started, but when the gamb:ling began Monday night, continued through Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Fri day, day and night, openly with out : ny attempt at concealment, in ft 11 view of police, and mem bers of council 'passing to and fro a the ordinary pursuit of thei: business: then, after all of this, to not stop the concerns un til up in the day Saturday, we do not see where council is justi fled i a its vehemence nor in say ing oar comments are wilful, ma liciou:s and false. What council says it believes about its instructions to police being carried out, we have noth ing to do: gambling went on, as stated by us; council and not the police are held responsible by the taxpayers- The whole mat ter hinges upon, not our com mnents nor our conclusions but the charge, and the question is, was wide open gambling going on in the public view over five days in the week?~ Were it necessary we would have no trouble to fur nish affidavits, also affidavits to prove that a "special perform ance" of the dancing girls was giveni on Saturday night, intim a tions of female indecencies being the drawing card. Did this come to the knowledge of any of the town officers before the hour set] for the immoral exhibition? Was 1 any attempt made to suppress it? There is nothing whatever ma-1 licious in THE TIMEs article: the comment was legitimate and justiiica under the circumstances. THE TIMEs editor has no reason ] to bear malice towards council or < its employees-most of them < have always professed to be his i friends-but when we see with t our own eyes or receive reliable e information which the public is c interested in or has a right to t know, all of the resolutions of I council will not deter us from t publishing the information for the public good. While I council was resoluting itt S could have with equal justifica tion ordered THE TIMES editor1 t executed, his property confis- I cated. or that he be banished for I daring to give publicity to that i which he regards a public incon- t sister cy. THE TIEs policy be- I comes untruthful only when it a publishes distasteful things. 1 We challenge any member of e council to point out anything in the chtaracter of THE TIMIES edi \ tor or the policy of his newspa s per which will justify the intimna- b tion m:ade by that body to prove t unreiability. If THE TIMES edl- T itor's public and pr-ivate acts e were not as good, clean and re- rn liable, financially or morally asie any lemnber of Manning's townta count 1. he would sacrifice what little property he has here and 1~ go ei ewhere, where men hold- f ing p blic positions can disc-rim- n inat( >etween personal and pub- v Them wa no need of cduncil )ecomjinug sensitive because a lewspaper wit bin its rights c0111 nents on public matters. The axpayers did not present coun :il with the town, they only rave it a one term trust, and all f its acts and conduct are open o criticism. Men whv pay. taxes lave a right to draw their own onclusions about the acts of ouncil. based upon the condu, t mnd acts of those connected with touncil and council is also held re sponsible for the acts of its em ployees. If gambling went on publicly ave days, and was not stopped antil the sixth, regardless of what may have been instructions to police, the comments com plained of in THE TIMES were jus ifed, Town Council of Manning views to the contrary notwith tanding. So far as these gamb ling games are concerned we made ao personal objection to them ifter the carnival was licensed to open up here, all of them car cy along gambling and other vices, but when they are here, with their vices, and are not stop ped until a few hours before the time for their departure, after going on with their lawlessness all of the week, then we are fully justified in directing atten tion to the laxity of enforcing the law, if the law was to be en forced at all. THE TINES never refuses to publish a criticism of its editor's writings, matters not the source, even if it comes from a town council that in its own resolu tions of defense puts itself in the position of confessing one of two things: overlooking the violation of law for five days out of six, or failure to do a sworn duty to suppress immorality and lawlessness. The threat to pub lish elsewhere is nonsense, THE TIMES gladly publishes the coun cil's resolutions without money and without price, and let a fair pu'lic judge beween the editor and the resol-uting thin-hided Town Council. EXTREMES ARE UNWISE. The coming session of the leg islature will be called upon to handle the liquor question; it does seem as if the people are never to be rid of whiskey agitation. a State-wide prohibition bill will be introduced, notwithstanding the fact the Prohibitionists made no issue in the last primary, but to the contrary elected a Governor n a State-wide prohibition plat form, with a proviso that coun ties not desiring prohibition can have the privilege of voting in the legal sale of alcoholic bever ages. If a platform is to be taken as a pledge, then it seems to us the Prohibitionists are estopped from rging an iron clad prohibition bill under the present administra ion. We cannot see how those professing to represent a moral issue can, when before the people seeking votes represent they favor prohibition qualified, State-wide prohibition bill, with a provision to permit counties to vote in the legal sale, and wher. lected upon that understanding, ~urn in and give to the people an 2nqualified, iron clad prohibition >i. It does not look honest to s. It has the appearance of de :eption. It is doing what Tillman lid when the State voted prohi >ition and his administration gave he people the dispensary. When Governor Ansel tirst nentioned his plat form, and what is position would be on the liq ior question, we todk issue with uim, we did not fancy the idea of ~hanging the present status, as t looked to. us like reversing leg slation only to be doing some hing, but cpnditions have chang d, and, upon nature deliberation, ve have reached the conclusion, f the general assembly proposes o repeal the Carey-Cothran Act, o legislate the State into pr-ohi ition, then we think Governor nse's plan the best We cannot conceive of the wis oiom of forcing prohibition upon Scounty that demonstrates daily t does not sympathize with such tlaw, and that it will not enforce t under any circumstances. In ur judgment a prohibition law n such a community brings the aw into contempt, and the long r it so remains the more does his contempt permeate the en ire body politic, resulting only n creating lawless out of other vise law abiding citizens. With >ut a provision in a State-wide >rohibition bill to let the people >f a commiunity ha-ve the privilege >f local self-government, by vot-I ng in a liquor regulation sys em suited to their environments1 ,nd conditions, it will be coer ion, and by the power of might ie to a corpse of discontdht a eople who know their needs bet er them outsiders.I This liquor agitation year after ear is a great drawback to ound, progressive law-making. ~here should be an end to it some ime; we are getting wear-y of en riding into office with whis :ey as a stalking horse. Politic ms tis true, must have some- i hing when appealing for votes, ut we think they have ridden. I nd are riding this liquor prob-I am until the old nag is sore-back d and should he given a rest. We hear not a thing about re ising .our assessing and taxing e ystem, not a word, so far as we| now -there has ther-e been een no suggestion to devise a ray by which property is-assess d equitably, the tax-dodger may ot be as great a menace to his ommunity, as the man who rinks liquor, but he does do a' -hole lot of mater ial damage, by - is tax-dodging, lhe forces hiss llow man and neighbor to pay tore than his just pro~portwo. hile he withholds from -~ c'an ~ii gotten i-in... Tinmeand .agant liaxe ~e s-wid there are people favoring prohi bition legislation, and. if the mioLing of laws was in their l1 hands, we believe more conserva- j tism would be observed, but m,,. of the prohibition now is politics pure and simple: politicians are I in the saddle, and in order to keep i in the lime light they are very c loud, and very extreme. s GONZALES WANTS THE LAST WORD. t The Columbia State, like the b drowning old woman who said "scissors," when she could no longer speak the word, lifted her T fingers above the water and work- u ed them like the opening and t shutting of a pair of scissors. In yesterday's issue our con temporary has another one of its s protests against the story of its editor's past political life being F revived, and undertakes to befog things by references to the a "March convention" the "Colle- a ton plan" and "the treatment of Hampton," all of which has noth- I ing to do with our contention that the "State" was founded upon i the prejudices and bitterness of 0 the Haskell movement, and the I editor of the State was not al- a ways as straight laced, and as orthodox in his politics as he ap pears now. We opposed the de feat of Hampton, said then, and say now, it was a shame." The C March convention" and the "Col leton plan," neither was forbid- a den by the rules of the Demo cratic party, but since then the k rules were revised and these pre hminary conventions are forbid- t ed. The controversy between THE TIMES editor and Senator Till man, was not about party regu larity. The issue raised was of ficial probity. of which we had no personal knowledge but based e what we had written on written information in hand, with more promised, but. which on the morning of joint debate, the party who promised to furnish additional proof, arrived the night before on the same train with Tillman, the man, myster iously left the next day without furnishing the additional prom ised proof of "irregular financial and commercial proceedings" while Tillman was "Governor of South Carolina." But THE TIMES t editor presented on that occasion notwithstanding the desertion, enough for Tillman to occupy over four hours in explanation: this though, has not one thing to do with Editor Gonzales' past po litical disloyalty, when he refus ed to support the nominee of the Democratic party. And which alone is the subject of this de bate. Whether "The State does not take deeply or seriously the alle gations of Mr. Appelt. and that t it shall not be consiaered as mak- e ing defense or seeking justifica- a tion." matters not one iota to us, C the fact is, however, The State's C editor in defending himself has y developed into a very fair con- T tortionist who would be an at- I traction at the Lyric, or somei nickle vaudeville show.

Henry Rice, is be. coming quite notorious by his de tective methods in enforcing the a gamne laws. He looks into the d window of a millinery shop sees a non-game feather, has the mil- u liner arrested and fined. He goes e to a hotel for dinner, is served e with a partridge, walks out, has the hotel proprietor arrested and n fined for violating the game laws. h The fines are usually small, not e enough to cause a milliner or bo- cl tel proprietor to test the law. It t, is our judgment if the law was ti tested Mr. Rice will find', the i game protecting laws are not in tended to operate against tlhe serving of cooked birds, or the manufactured feather. The pur pose of the law being to stop the isi destruction of game bir-ds byv tI those who make it a business. but P once the birds arc killed anad sold. ci the party buying and ser-ving ht them has not violated tile lawv. no g more so, or as .much, as has the hardware man who sold tihe gun. powder and shot which the birds la were destroyed with. s The game laws, like all other w laws should be enforced, but it w should be done with reason, and bi we do nlot think it reasonable to to iLrrest and flue a hotel manager ne for serving birds on his table. w he man to tine is the one who bled the birds. Then it seems to us, the proof would have to si dow the birds werec killed in p4 his State, and in the county in vt rhich tile warrant is issued. If ce \r. Rice is corect in his construc- as ;ion of tile game laws, then the v egislature should modify the la w, iln o that Mr. Rice shall not have ei o play thle rlei of detective to tit nake mfoney~ for his society. We hli ae no patience with spying and ;ee no difference betwe'en a bird ml a whiskey spy.If our mor o,' seres us aright Mr. Rice when a ngaged ill newspaper work made t1 sme severe strictures against aj the wxhiskey spes in State dis- be eInary days, now he has turned en ut to be a bird sur.

'atherstone. has made the early 1 announcement and Hon. R. .ianning, has given it out suf ciently to cause his friends to ounit him in tlhe running. Feath tone has a decided advantage, if Le prohibition sentiment con nues to hold out, he is regarded ' y many to have the prohibition ote "cinched," and he ought.to. ecause he stepped upon that latform when it was not as pop lar as now, and he has consis ently staid right there. If South arolina is to have a prohibition overnor, then we say Feather tone has the best claim. Colonel Manning has not an ounced his platform. but judg. ag from his past public utter nces he is not a Prohibitionist, ,nd even, should he decide to run ,n a prohibition platform, his op- i onents will make it disagreeable y reminding him of his record n the senate, and his speeches .n the stump. 'There is only one >osition for Mr. Manning to take ,s a candidate for Governor. that 3, to have the liquor question liminated entirely, and go before he people on a strictly retrench rent platform. It is eyident to y cur mind. that many people are g ired of this incessant ding dong a ,bout liquor, they want business La egislation, something that will A essen taxes. If Mr. Manning can evise a plan which will appeal o the people as an argument from successful business man, it may i tave the effect of bringing the g -oters to his leadership rather c han continuing following a one lea impractical theory. Richard 1. Manning has dem- I nstrated his business ability, Wade a huge success of his pri -ate affairs, such a man would cake a safe Executive, but before 2e can attain to this position he oust be able to bring the masses o believe it is far, better for them o give consideration to practical 9 >usiness propositions in their pol tics, than to make a sentiment, heir whole thought f.or prohibi ion is only a sentiment,its sincere Advocates hoping it will have a endency to improve morals. Re renchment and Reform should be he next campaign slogan, taxes ,re growing burdensome, the peo )le are groaning under the veight, not only are taxes in reasing but the public service Leeds improving, therefore we ;ay there is more need for finan ial statesmanship than for senti aentality. THE PRESIDENT MAKES 'EM MAD. President Roosevelt has rought upon himself the ire of R aany newspapers because he us d "that short but ugly word" in p nswer to the intimations that ry ertain Americans got a "rake ff" in the Panama canal -deal. It as alleged that a-syndicate of rhich the president's brother-in w, and the brother of the pres lent-elect were members, bought be Panama canal for $12,000-, C 00 and sold it to the United 3 states for $40,000,000. All of the e mericans connected with Pres- n lent Roosevelt or Judge Taft t< ave strongly denied the allega- li [on and President Roosevelt has a areatened, if the criminal libel b tw can reach certain individuals, e purposes using it to punish [em. r President Roosevelt entered e pon his second tdrm the most o opular man in America, but he ow has many enemies among s< bose who were loud in singing , is praizes. Thus it is with pub- y c life, a man may give a clean, nscientious service, and his re it ard is censure from those who cl >uld not or would not see as he i. If a public man is a time arver. his walk in public life t Lay be smooth, but if he is of in ependence, and dares to do that 'hich he thinks is right, it us ally results in a division of o: pinion-the making of bitter o1 emies, and strong friends. B President Roosevelt is a strong 01 inded man,of ten biunt and even w arsh in. speech, but when his S aemies intimate dishonesty, or is aarge hypocrisy, an investiga- fc on will show an ulterior mo- ei e, a disappointment, the Pres- m ent could not be used by them. ce What is the matter with the A Seminole."
