You owe a great deal to the youth of this State: you owe them the best that you have to give. When the dispensary was first put on trial there may have been good reason for an appeal to a faction, but that reason no longer exists. The system has been on trial more than twelve years. It will soon he voted on by thousands of men who were only eight or nine years old when it was adopted. When you speak now, we are entitled to have you speak from the point of view of statesman ship and not of partisan politics. No Danger to Tillman. Besides, vou have too much sagac ity to fear that this movement against the dispensary can endanger your po litical future. You occupy a large place In the history of South Carolina for the last fifteen years, and for a number of years no rival has chal lenged your primacy among the po litical leaders of the State. Ben Till man, the senator representing South Carolina, can well afford to discard the methods of Ben Tillman the par tisan political leader. I do not mean to be offensive. You know of my ap preciation of the distinguished ser vices that you have rendered this State in a number of directions. But I earnestly protest that you have no righ* to befog this question by level ing It to the plane of partisan poli tics. That the administration of the dis pensary system is corrupt anv fool can sea as he runs. But I go farther than that, even at the risk of having you charge me with cant and hypoc risy. No matter how high your pur poses may have been in adopting the system, in its origin it seems to have been a cunningly-devised scheme to chloroform the public conscience. No Jesuitical attempt to debauch morals by using the end to Justify the means could have been more successful if the system had been honestlv admin istered. The corrupt administration will save us from the system Itself. Governor Hoch, of Kansas, tells us: “We are rearing a new civiliza tion here. I believe there are more than a quarter of a million young peo- He who have never seen a saloon. Prohibition Is the only logical attitude of law toward the liquor traffic, and the whole country will some day rec ognize the fact.” What sort of .civ ilization are we rearing In South Carolina? Our Supreme Court, in its famous decision upholding the Consti tutionality of the dispensary law, laid down the following as a fundamental proposition and said that if this prop osition is not true the law is uncon stitutional: “That liquor, in its na ture, is dangerous to the morals, good order, health and safety of the peo ple, and is not to be placed on the same footing with the ordinary com modities of life, such as corn, wheat, cotton, tobacco, potatoes, etc. Kan sas says to her children: “The liquor traffic is dangerous and ought to be prohibited.” South Carolina says to her thousands of school children: “The liquor traffic is dangerous to the morals, good order, health and safety of the people, and therefore we will sell liquor and get all the money we can for the schoois.” You may call it cant if you will, but in effect here Is an Insidious attempt to wed public education to the liquor traffic. It is an unholy alliance and God will put them asunder. We can not afford to lower the ideals of our schools. We must not poison the fountain that nourishes the heart and brain of our people. Was Becoming Disreputable. The business of the saloon-keeper was becoming disreputable in this State, and saloon-keepers were begin ning to find/it difficult, to justify the business in the eyes of their child ren. The dispensary system attempts to make the traffic respectable and reputable. How can the children in our schools answer the sophistry of the argument that whatever contrib utes to the support of the school is good and wise? I lay it down as little short of an axiom, that any restrict ive scheme that takes control of a traffic that is dangerous to the mor als of the people, and controls it in such a way as to make it reputable, is a vicious and dangerous scheme. Let me suggest an historical paral lel A great leader was com manded to go down against the Amal- akltes, standing for immorality, and destroy them and theirs utterly. When he was called to account by the old prophet and asked what meant the lowing of cattle and the bleating of the sheep, his lame excuse was that the people had kept the best of the sheep and oxen to sacrifice to the Lord. The prophet’s answer was as swift and withering as lightning: “Behold, to obey is better than sac rifice.” Sacrifice is good, but there are better things than mere sacrifice. The government of a great State was com manded by the moral sense of the peo ple, expressed at the ballot box to go down and destroy the liqnor traffic. And when called to account it makes the pitiful plea that while it has not destroyed the traffic it has managed it so as to get money for the tax- payers. Money for the schools Is good, but there are better things than money for the schools. The bligh* of God’s curse falls upon the people that resort to methods that dull the public conscience and lower the tone of public morals. It Cannot Help You. Senator Tillman, the dispensary system cannot help you, and you can help It only temporarily. It is wrong in principle and corrupt in practice, and its doom has been written. By throwing your powerful influence against the present agitation you may save the dispensary for a while, but it is tottering and must fall. It Is fortunate for you that your reputation rests upon achievements that will en dure. You recall, do you not, the de sire of Jefferson that his epitaph should remind posterity that he was the author of the Declaration of In dependence, and of the bill of relig lous liberty, and the father of the University of Virginia. And so his name is handed down, riveted to civi liberty, and religious liberty and high er education, three things that can never depart from the earth or from the love of men. And you, what would you be remembered by? There Winthrop and there is Clemson; wel may your heart swell with honorable pride. And there is—I will not name the third thing. What true friem would link your name with the dis pensary? What bitter enemy could desire a worse fate for you than to have you raised to that bad eminence? A wise solution of the liquor problem is one thing: the dispensary Is an other. I have very little political ambition and no taste for public controversy You need not remind me that It is none of my business to take care of your reputation. I know that. But in a quiet way I have for many years been doing my best, little as it may have been, to develop strong, clean brave manhood in this State, and it saddens me to feel that you are about to let pride of opinion and the fervor of debate stand in the way of a fair and open test of a great moral ques tion. The people do not need advice they need free opportunity to vote Respectfully, George B. Cromer. Newberry, August 11, 1905. LANDLORD AND TENANT. Former An Old Contract Between Master and Slave. Mr. Wm. R. Lipscomb furnishes us with the following form of contract used in 1866 between landlord and tenant: State of South Carolina, Union District. Articles of agreement between W. R. Lipscomb of the one part and the freedmen and women of the other part whose names are hereunto attached for the hire of their labor, commenc ing the 1st of January, 1866 and end ing the 29th day of December, 1866. I, W. R. Lipscomb, agree to furnish the hired freedmen with comfortable houses and fuel and treat them kind ly and pay to each one of them at the expiration of the year whatever may be due them. London and wife, Mary, board and clothes themselves and I pay them ($160) one hundred and sixty dollars.

I agree to furnish to those who board them selves with the rations above named, bacon at twenty (20) cents a pound and corn at one dollar a bushel and clothing at cost. I agree to furnish John and Whit the following material for clothing: (4) four shirts, two pairs of summer and one of winter pants and two pairs of shoes. And to Hannah and Tilda, a quantity equal in value to that furnished John and Whit We the freedmen and women, on our part do bind ourselves to observe the following rules and regulations: I.

James B. Dill, whose recent speech on “graft” at Oberlin college im pressed the entire country, told re-1 cently, apropos of graft, a story about | a swindling tramp. “This tramp,” said Mr. Dill, “had the alert, uncrupulous bold mind | that makes erafting successful.” “He was walking down the street I one day, when he saw a little t>oy | stoop and pick up something. “He crossed over to the boy quickly. I “’You have made a find, my lad,’ he said. “ ‘Yes, sir,’ said the innocent boy, I T have found a silver ring.’ “ T thought so,’ said the tramp. I ‘It’s the one I just dropped. Now, ain’t it lucky I had my name in it?’ “’What is your name?’ said the boy suspiciously. ‘“Sterling, lad.’ ‘Take it then. It’s yours,” said the I boy, handing the ring over with a disappointed air.” Cattle King Miller. In his “Gold Hunters of California,' Thomas E. Farish tells some interest ing anecdotes cf the men of the early days. Speaking of Henry Miller, a west ern cattle king. Mr. Farish says that none knew better than he the value o:’ a reliable,, efficient man. “Once, on one of his Kern county ranches, he had a foreman with whom he quar reled. The foreman said, ‘If it were not that you are a smaller roan than I, I would beat you half to death.” At this Miller threw off his coat and went for the man. The foreman suc ceeded in giving him a good trouncing, then demanded a settlement, which was made. That all over with. Miller apologized and hired the man over again, wiith an advance in wages. He knew he had a good man. Another story of Miller: "I remem ber Miller ©nee at Fireburgh’s ferry, on the San Joaquin river, when he was buying so much land. It was at breakfast and a man called ‘Hog’ Johnson began to criticise Miller’s purchases, when Miller turned to him and said: ‘Hog, you know dere iss more people born Into de world effery year dan dies out of it, don’t you?’ ‘Yes,’ admitted Hog. ‘Vel, dey all haf to Ilf off de land, and dere Iss no more land horned effery year.’ ” Feminine Substitute.

It takes more than a white tie to cover a black heart. An Unpolished Reflection. John Philpot Curran, the eminent Irish barrister and orator, once met his match in a pert, jolly, keen eyed Paddy, who acted as hostler at a large stable and who was up as witness ia a case of a horse buying dispute. Curran much desired to break down the credibilitv of this witness and thought to do it if by making the man contradict himself by tangling him up In a network of'adroitly framed ques tions but all to no avail. The hostler was a companion to Sam Weller. His good common sense and his equanim ity and good nature were not to be overturned. By and by Curran, in towering wrath, belched forth, as not another counsel would have dared to do in the presence of the court. “Sirrah, you are Incorrigible. The truth is not to be got from you, for it is not in you. I see the villlan in your face." “P faith, yer honor,” said the wit- aess, with the utmost simplicity and truth and honesty, “my face must be moighty clane and shinin’ indade if it oan reflect that.” “Interesting Reading.” “Print the grandest sermon that ever fell from inspired lips,” says an exchange, “and not twenty ner cent, even of the professed pious will read it. but print a detailed account of some female bunko game or a sensational divorce in high life, ana ulnety-nine per cent, of the very ele„l will make a dive for the paper before breakfast, swoop down on it like a hungry nigger on a bowl of crab soup, devour every word, then roll their eyes heavenward like a calf with the colic, bemoaning the wickedness of the wor’ 1.” The Lowell (Mass.)

Too much care cannot be used with small children during the hot weather of the summer months to guard against bowel troubles. As a rule It is only necessary to give the child a dose of castor oil to correct any dis order of the bowels. Do not use any substitute, but give the old-fashioned castor oil, and see that it is fresh, as rancid oil nauseates and has a ten dency to gripe. If this does not check the bowels give Chamberlain’s Colic. Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy and then a dose of castor oil. and the dis ease may be checked in its inclpiency and all danger avoided. The castor oil and this remedy should be pro cured at once and kept ready for in stant use as soon as the first indica tion of any bowel trouble apnears. This is the most successful treatment known and may he relied upon with implicit confidence even in case*? of cholera Infantum. For sale by Chero kee Drug Co. Colonel \V. C.
