The genuine on and out prohibitionist. Men wh< fight it from honest convictions that prohibition is practicable and therefore to be preferred l< the dispensary. Men who liavi not nought, or c 'os. inusly euterec into any combination. or allianci with any one t<? obtain their end We ourpelves are prohibitionists and feel r a I i?f i <1 that we havt aided the cause of prohibition t< a i o.i-i'b" able extent in the pas and even the present campaign But this is aside, the second clasi that is opposed to the dispensary is not so easy to define, ant especially their motives for op poping it. If you will look back over the reform movement it j South Carolina, it will, I believe help you to determine the ques tion at issue. We find at the be ginning of the ref rm movemenl in South Carolina?one party controlling everything in tht state?and Charleston, Columbia and one or two other towns con trolling the party. The reforrr movement put the state in tht control of the yeomanry of tht fate, it inaugurated the primary the canvass of the state by tht candidates for state office, ii established Clemson and Win throp colleges, forever secured tt I South Carolina white supremacy and enacted the dispensary sys tern of selling liquor. Now, ai - this was not brought aboul without opposition, price, and even bloody opposition, by the - element then in control. The reform movement swept every thing before it. and the "antiV as they were designated, ceased to openly oppose, but they nevei for one moment give up. What if the result? Today we find these same old enemies in Charleston and Columbia, assuming the forir 'of an angel of light," fighting side by side with the prohibition ist. These people had counte nanced barrooms, and upheld them as long as they were in power, and are at Dresent still ir favor of them, but knowing tha they can never gain power again 1 bo long aR they fight openly, thej ally themselves with the Chris tian element of the Rtate that ii fighting the liquor tralfic, witl the hope of overthrowing th< diapenRarv and thuR giving "a black eye to the Tillmanites" ai I heard one of them say not lonj since. Charleston, Columbia anc Greenville, are the three leaderi in the present campaign fo: Hoyt. These three places an charged by the Prohibitionists . with truth I believe, with having 600 blind tigers, yet they sup ported the Prohibition ticket ii '98 and will do the same thii year. That i? an anomaly. Th< dispensary fosters blind tigers ' yet the tigers vote against theii beat, friend ? I tell you, brethren, of the Pro H hibitionparty.it behooves us t< look into this thing.

The attendance of delegates was i ? not as large as was expected con 9 sidering the $18,000 exchange) 1 money problem; hut there was a J * goolly number present. The J ' sessions were held in the hall of j ' the house of representatives. At ' 10 a. m. the trustee stockholders j of the state alliance exchange met in the hall of the house of representatives and held a session 1 lasting until nearly 1 p. m. At a this session they carefully went ) over the financial report submitt ted by the board of directors. Then a committee wit h Mr. Keith, ' who wislios Iho iii'Diof ilitfiHn.l as chairman, was appointed to recommend to the state Alliance some plan looking to the disposi J tion of the money. This committee met during tlie . afternoon. The following is a roster ol the t delegates present : ' Abbeville, J. R. Blake ; Ander 1 > son, J. B. Douthit ; Edgefield, W, i II.

Clark, A. S. Frick and P. O. ^ Counts. I The president, Senator Alexan^ der, delivered his annual address, , which was short and contained ?. ? 11 ? -.1? -i ' . nuuio f^uuuiy mi vice ana counsel, ' and was well received : 1 lie spoke as follows : "This is the thirtieth annual ? meeting of the Sooth Carolina * State alliance, it. gives me great 1 pleasure to be here with you and to feel and know that I stand to day, as I stood 13 years ago, in full fellowship with all true and I tried brethren ot the greatest or, der, outside of the church of i Christ, now in existence. I claim t there are no people, nor organi , zation, no order or allied forces 7 that will do more for the upbuild ing of mankind, in every vocation * of life, than the once and now 1 much loved order, the alliance. "While our order has decreased ' numeiically speaking, yet it is as ? strong in the faith and principles j as on the day of its ineipiency. R There should he no lagging, no r desertion from the ranks; the a heavier the load, the harder we , must pull. We must, draw the J alliance chariot up out of the past and put it on the high maca1 dami/ed road to success and B prosperity. "Yes, let us hold to the old ^ ship; let us lay a safe foundation and build on the principles laid down in our rituals and constitu ^ tions, and work for the betterment of mankind, morally, socially and $ financially, and in particular to j ' worK lor every honest interest ot 5 the brethren of the alliance. The 7 groat trusts and combinations .which surround ' the laboring r classes and threaten to engulf all ' of our surplus must be watched j r with an eye single to the interests of the masses. "There is only one way to de fend our hearthstones, our wives and our children, ami that is to O * d fight fire with fire. As some one * has aptly said, 'You can cut dia>} mond only with diamond.' We ,{ must build up the waste places, d rebuild and revivify our sub-1 ENTE mWUODAT, AU ST alliances, and once more become a power in this southland, anc then we can live as men?live honest, happy and prosperoui lives."

If be were a self seeking politician and wanted to look out for himself and not the people, he would go around and talk sweet and not e talk as he did. This abuse was e enough to make him mad, but he J! would not get mad. He would tie a coward if he did not talk out, r and was only sorry he could not !e get where some people have al;? ready been bamboozled. He knew 1 i! prohibition could only bo a farce ,f and that was why he wanted the ^ ** dispensary. lie did not want to make liars, because he knew the ' people would have their liquor. 1 He was a common senpe man ' and always acted as he thought 1 He differed with his ministerial friends, or enemipp, as they prefer, about there being air thing ' wroag in selling liquor or tliei 1 Bible opposed its sale as a sin. ! He went over his conclusions as 3 the best method of teaching the people to use liquor moderately. The dispensarv was then defended at length. The tree bears good fruit, and tb? Prohibitionists are 1 with their axes and are trying to 3 cut down the tine dispensary tree. 1 Who is hacking on the other side? ' The high license people, the saR loon keepers.

Senator Tillman next di-cussed Ike nvii of persona! gain in any :>lher than the dispensary system. He said his nose was red but he had never drunk a barrel in all his 58 years. As to himself, he did not care, but he had sons and neighbors' sons and wanted them saved. The Prohibitionists have half a loaf now, and it is good and sweet, but they want all or none. Then he alluded to the free liquor and prohibition period, while the law was suffering from the interregnum. That was such nrohi hit.ien a a mill r ? ! '* * II VyU 11.4 H, 4AU wanted to know why minister* would not recognize men as they were and not as they ought to be. There was something in the Bible against good men consorting with bad men. He supposed they wanted to crucify him. This is a free country and yet the ministers seem to be after him. One of them denounced him rs a liar; a Bishop. Think of that, -? Bishop, and simply for expressing an opinion. The only question is whether what he said was true, and that was the saloon people and Prohibitionists were allied in this fight. He then spoheof the danger of going back on the dispensary and what has been gained by years of work. The primary system, he said, was going to break down under the time limit and the poor attendance at the meetings. The people were putting themselves in control of the newspapers again. They were his friends. He warned the people for no good to him *elf hut. possible injury. He disclaimed any purpose of offending the ministers. He had no quarrel with the ministers, recognized their high tone and purposes, but ie would talk out regardless of yhe mi motors. He Fooled The Surgeons.
