Certain it is that no intoxiicating liquors, hy whatever name called, van be legally sold within the borders of the county of wh'ch Conway is the seat of government, vet it is a common sight to see men staggering along the streets under the influence of whiskey a nuisance to themselves as well as to their friends and the community at large. Oftentimes the ears of modesty and refinement are shocked and insulted bv vile, lewd and vulgar oaths and indecent language. This, too. in open defiance of law and order and against the peace and morals of the town. There is an ordinance forbidding such conduct and it is the duty of t he law officers to rigorous enforce that ordinance, ragardless of who the offenders may be. If men will get drunk they sDOuia Oft made to Keep off the streets. This condition is not the work of a dispensary, because there are none in Horry; neither can it be traced altogether to blind timers for the reason that bat comparatively little blind tiger whiskey is sold in Conway, but thp evil can be attri bated largely to club orders through which quantities of whiskeys are received and drunk. We notice, with some amusement, we confess, that a few newspapers published in towns where the sale of whiskey is legalized when made under the restrictions of the dispensary law, are making a hue and cry over the appearance of drunken',men on the streets painting the town a vermillion color with their vulgarity and indecency. This condition of alTairs is bad?extremely bad ?and the good citizens of the towns were these conditions exist are justified in registering a great big high kick, and keep on kicking until the remedy is applied and the evil abated. Hut will the abolishment of the dispensary correct the evils complained of by our contemporaries? Is closing their doors the remedy to be a])plied? These are questions upon whif b t br?ii<rlit fnl > V.MII.M'll'IlllOUS 1111(1 patriotic men widely differ and in differing one is just as honest 111 his convictions as the other and each is entitled to give expression to those convictions without having his motives impugned. From our point of view we are firm in our con fiction that the closing of the dispensaries will by no means give relief from the evil from which all communities more or less sutler. The habit of whiskey drinking together with the natural indecency and depravity of a person's soul are two elements in the character of man that degrades him and lowers him beneath the standard of the brute. The dispensary is not responsible for indecency and vulgarity, neither can the whiskev habit alone be held accountable for their baleful presence in this sin cursed world. Were this so, and the closing of the dispensary would banish sin and re-establish the beautiful Garden of Eden, we would be the first to cry out with all the earnestness and sincerity which we possess, A W:iv 'Jvit.Vl flw? liv/lmi I"""'"'1 * ..jwi.itiicaut'u monster and keep the accuised thing closed forever. Hut Alas for Truth this is not so A man may drink whiskey and get drunk, and yet the ennobling characteristics of his nature will come to the surface and he will be a gentleman in the truest meaning of the word.? Others are made of different elements and will deport themselves differently whether drunk or sober. All men who drink and get drunk are not blackguards, neither are all those who touch not wine when it giveth its color in the cup, saints. Hence the dispensary has nothing in the world to do with the making of u gentleman or the creation of black guard. The first is the creation, whether learned or unlearned, of pure thoughts bubbling up from the fountain head of a gentle heart and a refined mind. A blackguard is the legitimate offspring of a debauched mind and a depraved heart, and uses whiskey as an excuse for following the natural bent of his depraved heart. It is not that which goes into man that condemns him but that which comes out of his mouth is he judged, for out of the fullness of hisheart his mouth speak cth is as true as Holy Writ. o Windy Hill IleacIt.
