The Next Step. State-wide prohibition will be the next step for South Carolina. It seems that the prohibitionists have grown luke-warm or the people are tired of the next county to them selling whiskey and getting the revenue and ait the same time causing a gloat deal of trouble in the dry coun ty. Let us get t he next general assembly to pass a law allow ing us to vote oi the question of dispensary or no dis)ensary in the state and let that settle it. We are willing to test the mat ter and abide by the result. We believe that by organizing our forces and put tina good men in the lead, not politicians, but good, wise, conservative men, we can win. Our failure in the past, almost. every time we have had a chance to win out on the prohibition light, sonic design ing politician has come to the front and defeated the move nient. Let us have a fair square campaign on the mat ter of selling or not selling liquor in this state. We are in for prohibition first, last, and all the time, but if our friends who are always crying out for local op tion, will make the state line the local option line for one time, wo will join our friends for local option a d make tihe very best fight, we can for it. What do you say to t hat local option ist? We can begin now to organ ize and whip the traffic out of the state, but it will take organ ization and work, with wise leadership. WNTo1uld it not. be wise to call a convention of the prohibitionists of the state and petition the next legislattiro to pass a law allowing us to vote on the question; separate it from politics, and formulate plans for the campaign, should the legislature allow us to vote, as we believe they would if a general desire should be express ed On the subject. The "Consumption'' of Whiiskey. In recent years prohibition has made great gains. Some states and a gr'eat many coun. ties have been enlisted undler the wh'ite bann~ler. A recent writer in the North American Rleview says: "The saloon has beeni expell ed1 ir'om) one-half of the populan tion and from two-thirds of the geographical area of the coun tr.y. in 1868 there were 3,500, 000 people living in territory where the (kink traflic had been ouftlawed; in 1 900 the number had increased to 18,000,000; in 1908, or only eight years after, the number had doubled to 36, 000,000, and today there are 46, 029,750 persons, or a fractionl over one-half of the p)opulation of the country, living in no license territory. In the last five years the no-license popula tion has increalsedI a little over 10,000.000, wvhich is more than 10 per cent of the total popula tion of the nation and 30 per cent increase in the number liv ing in 'dry' districts, Since 1868 the populition of the coun try has doubled, while the num ber of inhabitants of 'dry' terri tory has increased over thirteen fold." The annual report of the su perijitendent of education of Chestei' county shows total rev enue of all the school districts amounted to $73,152.53. There wecre 4,915 negroes enrolled against 2,479 whites. The annual report of the county superintendent of educa-. tion of York shows that 5,'345 white and 6,743 negro children were enrolled during the year. Out of 52 districts 45 are levy ing special t axes. Mayor Gaynor, of New York, died on the Steamship Baltic i mid-ocean last Wednosday.
