Suppose the State owned a lot of horses, no one would for a moment rsay that these bo.3es can graze pon private lands without the nermission of the owner of the lands, so it must be the same with the game and fish. The birds get their sustenance from where, the State property? No, they get it from the private lands of the taxpayers, there fore it is doubtful to our inind if the. State has the power to -prevent the owner of land from using that which grows and lives thereon.. We believe it wrong to permit people to trespass upon the lands of another and the law so recog nizes this to be wrong that it affords a remedy in the courts, established for the protection of private rights. The owners of lands being protected by law can stop a wanton destruction of game and fish by re fusing to permit trespassing, but when. the law goes further and says that a man cannot fish except in1 a certain way, a way dictated br a few nersons who have organ ized themselves into a society, and provided a high salaried set of officers to be paid out of the pockets of the general taxpayer, it goes too far, iad it borders 'npan tyranny. This is a repub lican form of government, the founders of which rebelled --against the mother country for, -the very reason that the mother country imposed unjust and tryannous requirements upon them, they would not stand for it, and the people of the present day have the same blood in their' . veins, and they will not stand for oppression. It is a source of regret that we have not as yet a copy of~ these obnoxious laws, when they come to us we will publish them -so the people can see for them selve~t what a farce freedom is getting to be. $2500 TURNE~D INTO TEE TREA50)RY. The city of Sumter has reaped a financial harvest from the blind tigers. but it is a mere bagatelle to what the blind tigers g'ot fr-omn their illicit traffic. The tines amounted to S:2500 and the cost to the taxpayers was also quite a iarge amount. Just how long the authorities will keep up the warfare with hired detectives is not known, but it is certain that! the same detectives cannot con tinue the work. and a new set must be brought there. The'Sum ter Item, whose editor- is ver conservative with regard to thi liquor qjuestion. with leanings. towards prohibition, in the isu of .March 4th, has the following cormment: --The binod tigzer triais that have been in progress :n :hel iecdr ercour- thi week tvech two leess:: Firs~t, that rohibition has~ not been enforced~ in.

In this change of -entiment lies the only hope of the e:Tective enforcement of prohibition.

The blind tiger will =oe!e to an o!Mieer of the law whom he knows. nor %ri'! he sell to any one he may susIpect of acting for an otlicer. iTis is w 1y the ordinary macninery for the enforcernent of the law is in e!Tective and incapable of coping with with the coalitio. of blind tigers and liqior drinkers. The regular police force bein' ine.ffective. what is to be be done Can the city of Sumter con tinue to c:nploy relays of detectives to run down the tigers. and if dcetectires are emoloyed in relays will those em played in 'the futu-e be successful iu roudi:: up the tigers? A burnt child dreads the tire. and hereafter the illiit se!!ers of liquor will be more cautious and wearv and will sell only to trust worthy patrons Of course, a tiger will be picked up now and then and when brought before a jury of law-respectin.r citizens will be convicted and properly punished. But the law will not be en forced as it should be an-d the buyers and !ew!ers of liquor will be more close 1v banded togetner to evade the law a'nd defy those who wo.,uld enforce it. We heartily approve of what has been done by Chairman Ligon. of the Police Committee. and he and the city authorities are to be commended for the results accomp:ished. The city is the better for it and public sentiment has been aroused to a clearer and fuller realization of tne magnitude of evil in I fluence of the illicit sale c.f liquor in Sumter. and the law-respecting ele- I ment, which the blind tiger trials have demonstrated to be the dominant force in the cornmuzity, can be relied upon to endorse and heartily support every legitimate effort to enforce the law and suppress blind tigerism. If the arrests that bave been made and the trials that have been had, had accomplished nothing more than to arouse and crys tlize public sentiment and show the liquor sellers how they are thought of I v men whose opinions are worti. while i:n Sumter, they have b-een worth mnany times the expense and t rouble. .\uch has been accomplished in a practical way, the blind tigers have been taught a s'evere lesson and they know that the law is not a joke. The mor-al effect will! b; good. and while we do not believel that the illicit sale of lignor .sill be suppressed as a consequence of the trials and convictions, we feel contident ta hopen sale of liquor by hip pocket runners will again be a stench a-nd reproach to the community. Whoethere will be not a let utp and that if the tigers persist in defying the law they will be sent to the chain gang insteutd of being let oiT with tines" WHAT HAs HIS RE~iI1N TO DO WITH ITf The tendency to inject the churches into politics becomes more apparent daily. In the statement made in regard to the candidacy of MIr. C. A. Smith for Lieutenant Governor his friends take special occasion to stress the fact that M1r. Smith is a prominent Baptist. and that he was once moderator of a State Baptist convention. We have no doubt that Mr. Smith is all his friends claim for him, but the State of South Carolina is not being conducted upon denomnina tional lines, and the fact of M1r. Smith being a prominent Baptist does not nor should it appeal to voters. The voters of South Carolina have enough intelli gence to know that one of the fundamental principles of a re pblican form of government is to keep the church and state , separate. for the good of both. because just as soon as the two are permitted to come toget-her, desing men will intrigue and bring~ about a state of cor ruptioni in both. Whenever the Church and the State have locked arms it wsas not long be fore the church was the sufferer. and a reign of intolerance was the result. So we say that whati ever Mr. Smith's qzuaitications are for the position his church affliations have not hing hatve to do with it. A man may be ever so prominent a Baptist, Methodist. Presbyterian, Cath olic or Jew, and yet not be the proper man to preside over the State senata: the fact is. to be well qualidied to preside over SUch a body a mnan should be possessed with a knowlcdge of law, as it frequently happens that qluestions have to be decided that are highly imtportant. and only a leg~al mind can grasp andi render the decision. T he New be~!ry Obser-ve.r thinki.. h le('islature walked into, Seni tor aile's trap wheni it ad.op)t ad~ t icm tax ratifliestion res lution. We are satisfied that a najoity of the muembe rs were not! tuenced by the sneech of the Tex-as Sen'ator, but they voted in avor of th~e resolution ec-ause it was a dem:xand of the Democratic . party, and hiaving been: elecCted n the latformI~ of th. - party ther et piedge-d to) standl Uy t.ts de nands, regardless of thiei r per M1j.

Under Local Option the city of Sulmter has demonstrated that it --an make it hard for the violators f law the people themselvesi m:aie. Had the law been forced upon these people the probability is that it would have been tiffi-I eult to secure a conviction. Senator E. D. Smith does not take kindly to the proposed scheme of Postal Savings Banks and in his speech last week in the Senate. he showed up the fal acy of the proposition. His speech made an excellent impres sion. and it is said to be one of the best he has delivered in that hox.iv. Pinewood Dots.

What Happened at Night and What the Passenger Was Told. It was a dirty night, to use a sailor's phrase, and the talk in one corner of the smoking room drifted to events at sea and the childlike faith that passen gers repose in navigators. Said the scientist who had been col lecting specimens on a coral reef: "I've often beard men and women say they felt so safe with. Captain So and-so, and '-e wondered. too. wheth er their sense of security would still be retained if these favored travelers knew exactly what happened on ship board during a voyage. For my own part. I have more confdence than ever In a captain of my acquaintance since I learned that he could tell a white lie when it was necessary to calm the fears of a nervous traveler. It so hap pened that one foggy night I was awakened by the sudden stoppage and reversal of the engines. I jumped out of my bunk. went on deck and was told by the second officer that we had had a narrow squeeze. It appeared that we had nearly run down a schoon er as she silently crossed our bows and disappeared Into the haze. "Next morning a woman passenger who sat at the captain's table asked him whether the engines had been stopped and reversed, and he replied: 'Yes; we sometimes do this to test the engineer's watch and see If our ma chinery is in proper order. We do it at night so as to create no excitement.' Then he g:t the woman to describe what shc. had heard and asked her. -Did you find much time between the stopping and reversing?' "'No.' she replied. "'Then,' said the skipper.'that show ed how well everything was working. did it not? "When I got the skipper's ear I told hiui confidentially that i didn't think the schooner's engines had worked as well as ours. and he remarked that It might have been worse. Whether he meant the lie or the incident I didn't inquire, but I suspect it wasn't the lo "-Vw York Post. A Mean Hint.
