Tho nbovo is an excerpt from a news dispatch from far away Petro grad, telling of thc enforcement of the Czar's order banishing intoxi cants of every description from his vast domain, and the effects already noted of tho revolution in the civic montis of this land of one hundred and fifty million souls. lt will probably strike sonic as a most re markable statement of facts. But there is nothing remarkable about lt, ir at least, about that portion of the dispatch tolling of tho wondrous mange that has been wrought in the life of the peasantry; lt ls remark able though that nation-wide prohi bition should have been declared in Busala, a ?and which we have been aught to believe ls half barbarous, where the Iron heel of the despot ls ir ind lng upon'the necks of a penni less peasantry continually. But there ts nothing startling in the reference ! o the effect that prohibition bas had i already on the Russian peasants. We ! lo not have to go lo Russia to ascer tain the truth of this. It has been lomoustrated and is being proven right here in our own land. Oqe has jut to visit tho states where liquor ms been rooted out by a state-wide measure to seo for himself the truth >f the dispatch from the Russian capital. South Carolina law makers would lo well to remember the dispatch .'rom Russia when they are confront ul with tho question of passing a itate-wide prohibition measure for 'South Carolina. ' And those who- are working for eradication of the "blind tiger," or whiskey tn any form, in Anderson mould feel in the Russian dispatch cause ?or renewal ot their commend able efforts.

Juries and courts in South Caro lina are becoming perniciously active in curtailing the rights of citizens This morning's paper tells of a poor cuss who was sentenced to 6 months' confinement merely because he ex ercised his divine right of free moral agency and split another citizen's head open with ah.age. The case is not exceptional. Frequently a man who has done no more than assault his grand mother, burn his. children and poison his wife, is compelled to pay a heavy fine-$37.10, or something ike that. Impudent and meddling sheriffs will even go so far as to arrest a respect able white man for killing a nigger. Of course he always apologizes later, but the thing is annoying. It's getting to where one must up his bank account to see if there ls enough to salve the palm of some thieving lawyer . before daring to go out and kilt a neighbor. If lt's going to cost us forty-five I or fifty dollars every time we kill a man, we'll have to become civilized during these hard times-and that would never do, for . thc dear old State must live up to her reputation. -Tribune-Fountain Inn. ,-1 rJr*Mvm^ft\ Our rural mall delivery system ls j undoubtedly the bast we ever bad, and the threat of the postmaster-gen oral to return to Ute contract system, j it ls hoped, will never materialize.
