To the Editor fif The Chronicle: ? Will you allow space for a few words from the South Carolina Woman's Christian Temperance Union? The W. C- T. 1J. has heen organized and has heen working In this state for J12 years, looking forward with a faith that nev er faltered and a eon rage that never weakened, to the day when South Car olina would throw off the shackles of the- legalized liquor tratlic. On Sep tember 14th our faith and courage were rewarded, and we wish to thank the noble manhood of this state, who won for us such a splendid victory nt the polls. It means much, not in South Caro lina. but to the temperance and reform movements all over the world, that South Carolina has taken so decided and so emphatic a step for it demon strates the fact that (ioverninent con trol of the liquor business, under the dispensary system, has proven as gi gi> nt lc a failure, as any other effort at regulation. After a /air trial, un ci"! the best circumstances, the people of South Carolina have decided that go\ eminent control will not work, and that the only satisfactory way to ileal villi the business is to prohibit it. A great battle lias been won but the war is not over. The White Army in South Carolina cannot disband. Some one has said that "State-wide prohibition is simply a good position from which to tight the liquor tratlic." and this is true. This victory must be followed ? up by law enforcement, and it is the duty of every man and woman to up | hold the hands of the governor and others In authority in their efforts to enforce the law. They cannont do It w ithout the sympathy and co-operation the citizenship of the state. The war against the liquor tratlic Is a nation-wide and a world-wide war. The South Carolina W. C. T.
