If the public will sustain a publisher

why should it not sustain a

our apprehension, sionally failed to

the position of the I lorry newspaper
and the suojrested addendum of the j

only by those who are blinded

ridiculously absurd to talk about, or
to think about, the colored man
eroVdino the white man out of any
profession. If the white man remain
true to his Anjjlo-Saxon instincts of
progression and Government and
aliens himscdf with successive de\elnpincnts,
it is impossible to supplant
him by any race, much less the very
inferior colored race; but if the white
man folds his arms and rests upon
his patrimonial and ancestral riohts

then according to the doctrine of ovolution

he will deserve crowding out.

With one or two exceptions, every
newspaper in the State is opposed to
the employment of colored compositors
along with, or in the room of
white men. These exceptions are
men who know nothing of practical
printing themselves, and, no doubt,
look upon the pr'nter very much in
the same light as the ditcher or any
other wage worker. Then* they
make a big mistake. A printer must
of necessity be an intelligent man.

to tlic knidb, consideration of parents
with this remark that pictures are ,
most inllnentiai in determining tlx1
trend of character in youth ami enter
this caveat: "lie careful."
At its sessions in 1 SS.j the Legislature
enacted a law prohibitin?* the
imporlino-, printine-, publishing-,1
selling or distributing of any hook,
pamphlet, printed paper, or other
tiling containing obscene, indecent
or improper picture, print, lioure or
description tendino- to corrupt the
morals of t he you t h.
Similar laws have been enacted in
many other states. In this state a
violation of this law is punished by
imprisonment not exceeding- two
years and by a linn not exceeding
one thousand dollars, or both, at the
discretion of the t'ourt. Whoever
has in his possession such book, pamphlet.
printed patter, or picture, either
for sale, exhibition or circulation
comes within the purview of the law
and is liable to the line and impris- j
omncnl above mentioned. Uiirlit i
thinking people everywhere are be- 1
einino' to demand that this law be
rieridly enforced.
I'holographs, lithographs, prints of
all kinds, and of the most obscene
nature, are being scattered broadcast
over the land, to the intense distrust j
of all |tureininded |ieo|)le and the I
utter undoing of the youth of the
country.
It lias become common in the |
trade of the tobacconists more partic- !
ularly, to give to each purchaser one
or more of these foul pictures which
no young man for a moment would
think of showing his mother or sister, j
They are used as advertisements and
distributed particularly among the1
younger boys who smoke the "tonev"1
eigarett. They are abroad in this:
town. We have seen young boys 1
with them in their possession, clier- j
ishing them with a care they would
never give the finest painting of the |
I n
world's most renowned master.
In t'harlotto and Kaleigh, North
O 7
Carolina, the sale of Duke's cigarettes
has been prohibited by the laws!
of those municipalities for the reason
that with each package sold a picture
of an obscono character is given as
au inducement to purchase. The
sale of the goods of this and every
other linn which offers similar in
ducements, should be forbidden
everywhere. The law of our state
covers this case and it should be carried
out. Whether the law is vio-j
lated or evaded here we do not
know, but the effects of its violation
either here or in some place near
here may be seen in the community.
The law is so plain that the most ignorant
may easily understand it. It'
is so broad as to leave no loophole '
for evasion. It is so excellent and
designed to destroy an evil so <jroat
that every puro.iiindod person wiii
desire to see it made effective.

hirst. I would jjive it, emphatically,
as my opinion that the prnlnhitory
law in Maino dons have tlm effect
to larjroly suppress intemperance
amoiitr the people, hv restricting the
sale of intoxicants within narrow
limits in many places, and, in most,
of the towns in Mai e preventing
their sale altogether.
Second. It is not true that there
are lot) open saloons in Portland.
One tlm contrary there are no open
liars or saloons in the city of Port
land; not, to uiv knowledge, a single
place where liquor is advertised
lor sale. While it may lie possible
t<i produce lienor for drinking purposes,
yet its sale is driven into dark
corners, and its sale must be carried
on clandestinely, witii the greatest
difficulty and risk; under these cir
cumstances the youth a re not exposed
to temptation and are permitted
t<i crow up without the formation of
drinkine haoits. 'I'lm number of arrests
for drunkenness average three
or four daily, which is a small number

is easily obtainable. Besides, our
custom is to arrest any parties found
in a drunken condition, while, in
most cities, arrest are not made for
drunkenness unless neeotn panicd
with disturbance.
The sentiment of our eommunitv
is in favor of prohibition and a faithful
enforcement of the law, nnd
wot Id not lon?r tolerate an administration
which would allow the law to

It must not be overlooked that one
important advantage of tlm prohibitory
law is its cducatiner influence
upon the people. I inler it. whoever
sells intoxicating liipiors is
1 i 'atided as a erituinal: t he business of
liquor sellino- is thereby made odious
thus educating the public mind
against the sale and use of intoxicants.
With such a law upon the statute
book, the power is oiyen any community
to abate a liquor nuisance
within its midst, and protect the
member of society airainst a darino
% n n n
evil.
Believing that p rohibition will
promote tin1 happiness and prosperity
of any State, I recomend its adoption
to your fellow-citizens in South
t'arolina. Very truly yours

The Story ol'u Shirt.
There is a story of a shirt in connection
with the recent reunion at
(iettysburo, I'a., of the men who
wore the blue and the oray, which is
in pleasino contrast with the bloody
shirt exhibitions with which the country
has been painfully familiar. At
the close of the reunion there was an
exchange of badges between l'ickett's
men and the members of the I'hil
udclphia Brigade. Colonel Win. If.
Aylett <if l'ickett's Division had exchanged
his badge on tho lirst day

1'. V. V. answered that they
would like to have that shirt, to which
('olonol Aylett rejoined that ho was
ready then and these to fulfill Ins
contract if tho ladies were put out.
This not being then insisted upon,
Colonel Aylett a fow days ago forwarded
by express a shirt to Colonel
()'Beilly, accompanied by a letter, in
which he acknowledged in handsome
terms tho attentions lavished on tho
ex-Confederates by the lVnnsylvanian?.
Concluding his letter, Colonel
Aylett says: "We soldiers have

whole country, and the politicians

weighed four pounds snd four ounces.
Thus on the twenty-one papers there
were forty-four ounces, or two pounds
and twelve ounces, of Mies. This
number of flies are taken probably
two or three times a day.
"Now :f you want to know how much
ft fly weighs," said Mr Spencer, "you
will find that there is an average of
t wenty .flios to the square inch on the
paper. ()n the paper, therefore,
which has tt'M\ squaro inches, you
have W,720flies, and on tin; whole
twonty-ouo sheets there are 1 11,120
flies; therefore, if 111,12! flies
weighed forty-four ounces, ho\. inucii
does one fly weioh? It is a simple
calculation, and those who have a curiosity
to know can quickly find it
