Thursday, Sept. 29,1904
It has been said of the esteemed Columbia
State, on more than one occasion, that
it's support was fatal to any candidate.
It has company now in the great moral
institution, the dispensary. Candidates
&KV 'r had best fight shy of dispensary friends
PJ.-. in future.
We do hope that our voters will take
an interest in the coming general elec&v*
* tion for it is very important that each
wntAr fro to the polls and cast his ballot
tIfor the Democratic nominees. There may
' be a Republican candidate for congress,
and it is essential that a full Democratic
ote be polled.
\ *
Some of our brother editors failed to
understand our references to dirty politics
in the recent primaries. Our remarks
were not meant to apply to Bamberg county,
but to the State generally. Elections
in this county are as clean as anywhere
in the State, and we never hear of any
charges of fraud or corruption in county
politics. But from many counties in the
State came reports of fraud, corruption,
* bribery of voters, the use of whiskey and
money, and at several places contests
were carried before the executive committees.
This led to the paragraph, and
we here reiterate every word of it. There
it no doubt but that the primary in South
Carolina is corrupt, and there should be
a change. It fails of its purpose in one
I* respect at least, for it is a fact, which
jio one can successfully dispute, that the
best men are not being elected to office.
Will anybody say that, as a rule, from the
; ...highest to the most humble position, as
capable men fill the offices of South Carolina
as those who held them prior to 1890?
We aO DOl IX11DK. so, iur cvcly vuc ww
||y Tersafit with affairs must admit that the
m:v standard for public servants has been
lowered. From United State Senators,
congressmen, State officers, members of
Sip;':. the general assembly, and on down to
|l|? the county offices, men generally are
W,/ father conspicious because of their lack
pfc- of ability. Of course we do not mean to
P|{ include all officials. "We have many
brainy and honest men in office, but they
are the exception, not the rule. The
P|: mason for this is very plain. Many men
gilt will not subject themselves to the ordeal
Rb of a dirty political campaign in order to
jf|- serve their State. No man's character is
Be*"' safe if he enters politics, and they will
Kg ' not wade through-the mud and filth of a
8p'/' primary. Our idea is that we had better
S|? k return to the convention plan of nomip|
' sating, for a while at least. Attempts are
Kb being made all the time to purify the
Ieystem, laws are passed each year to this
end, and yet conditions grow worse.
The dispensary iiffluence has heretofore
been a powerful factor in South Carolina
politics. There is little doubt but that it
has completely dominated the general assembly,
and in State and county contests
the fellow who had the dispensary influence
behind him generally won out. If
we are to judge by results this year, the
day for the dispensary to control State
politics is past. This inference can be
drawn from the overwhelming defeat of
L. J. Williams for congress and John G.
Jfobley for railroad commissioner. Mr.
Williams ran on his record as liquor
commissioner, and there is no question
but that the dispensary was behind John
G. Mobley. And that's what defeated
them both. We would not for a moment
detract from Mr. Earle. We supported
p& in the second primary, dui we nrmiy
gp):\ believe that had not the dispensary forces
{S|v been enlisted in Mobley's behalf, he would
have beat Earle hands down. If we are
gr k: V- correct in this and the day has really come
|?V in South Carolina when it is fatal to have
|??." the support of the dispensary, then a
Ijy. glad time has come and there is reason
Bs for rejoicing. Certain it is when a man
is labeled dispensary candidate, the great
mass of the voters will oppose him. There
is a feeling of unrest and dissatisfaction'
among them, they feel that things are not
|p-- going right, and they look with suspicion
&. upon those who hope to get office from
J V;. dispensary influence. Whether this feel*
ing will extend to the legislature, we cannot
say. But in many counties men were
elected who pledged themselves to favor
the Brice bill. It remains to seem whether '
we will have any anti-dispensary legisla- i
tion at the coming session. Heretofore it
was impossible to do anything in the
j| * general assembly?the dispensary forces
were too strongly entrenched. Free wkis.key,
cigars, opera tickets and presents of
various kinds it is said were ireeiy distributed
at each session, and too many
members could not resist these favors.
Whe.her we will have a repetition of
this, remains to be seen, but we hope
not.
We have in hand at last the history of.
x' Springtown church, but our space is"too j
crowded to publish it this week.

Since the matter of the pardon of Williamson,
the Greenwood county man who
made a negro hold a white man named
Wertz while he horsewhipped him, is being
discussed by some newspapers, we
want to say that the governor, in our
opinion, made a mistake. The man should
have served the sentence imposed by the
law. As long as criminals are treated
with so much leniency we may expect
much lawlessness. This case was an aggravated
one, and Williamson richly deserved
to serve out his sentence.
EMERGENCY MEDICINES.
It is a srreat convenience to have at
hand reliable remedies for use in cases of
accident, injuries and ailments. A good
liniment and one that is fast becoming a
favorite if not a household necessity is
Chamberlain's Pain Balm. By applying
it promptly to a cut, bruise or burn it
allays the pain and causes the injury to
heal in one-third the time usually required,
and as it is an antiseptic it prevents
any danger of blood poisoning.
When Pain Balm is kept at hand a sprain
may betreated before inflammation sets in,
which insures a quick recovery. Sold by
Bamberg Phar; H. C. Rice, Denmark.

A POWER FOR GOOD.
The pills that are potent in action and
pleasant in effect are DeWitt's Little
Early Risers. W. S. Philpot, of Albany,
Ga., says: "During a bilious attack I took
one. Small as it was it did me more good
than calomel, blue mas9 or any pill I ever
took and the effect was pleasant. Little
Early Risers are an ideal pill." Sold by
H. F. Hoover.
