Waath.r For*ca*t Issued by the U. S. Weather Bureau, Washington, D. C., for the week be ginning Sept. 22: Generally fair weather and moderate temperatures throughout the week. The prohibitionists won a sweeping victory in last week's election, but the fight will just begin on January 1st, 1916, when the law becomes effective. % The salvation of the State lies in the rigid enforcement of the law. If the officers are lax in the performance of their duty and allow blind tigers to flourish, the people will become so disgusted with the condition of affairs that they will follow the leadership of the most blatant demagogue that pro mises relief. Perhaps never before have condi tions in this State been so ideal for the enforcement of the prohibition law. There has been going on a gradual change in the sentiment of the people against the use of iatoxicants that a gurs well. Governor Manning, who i elected an a platform of law and order, has reiterated his campaign pledge and calls on the good people of South Carolina to help him in redeem ing that pledge. There is reason to believe that any officer of the law who fails or refuses to do his duty will be summarily dismissed. Another thing that should tend to keep down the blind tigers is the “gal- lon-s-month” law, which prohibits any person from buying more than that amount of whiskey a month This, we believe, operates against the express companies that deliver as well as the individual who buys liquor. So let us all—prohis and antis—join hands,to the end that the strict letter of the tfcw may be carried out. How’s This?
