Our Liquor Traffic.
After recent and notable revelations
of crookedness in our (as a State) liquor
traffic, dlsolosod after many days, the
Board of Control of which Hon. Wille
Jones, Banker, Is Chairman ordered
an official Investigation. That inves
tigation was held at Columbia, cover
ing the working hours of last Wed
nesday. Gov. Evans and his brother,
B. B. Evans, Col. Mixon, the Commis
sioner, Seoretary of State Tompkins,
J. W. Mixon and W. T. Mixon, sons of
the Commissioner, and Scruggs, (what
a name) Secretary of the Board were
called as witnesses or volunteered.?
According to Soruggs, he traced re
bates as having reached the pockets
of the Mixon boys, $2,669.46. to W. T.
Mixon and $690.00 to James. Ono of
the Mixon "boys" got a diamond pin,
which he Is wearing, and Col. Mixon a
pitcher and two cups. Whether they
were of silver or gold or suoh as the
sweet Hebe or delloate Ganlmede
handled In the days of nectar docs not
appear. Ono striking foaturo of tho In
vestigation was tho watohing oaoh
Other like hawks on tho part of Gov.
Evans and "his" Seoretary of State,
Tompkins. Really, little was de
veloped except as published by Gov.
Evans In his little book of revelation
on the eve of tho Primary Election.
Enough however was brought out to
leavo room for speculation as to much
looseness and possibly great rascality
in the oonduot of this moral branch of
the State's business. Nobody will bo
surprised. The system Is honey
combed with rascality. The doors in
viting to fraud aro as wide open as the
blue vault of the hoavons. By tho
way, Mixon hlmsolf is mado of heroic
Stuff. According to hid own showing
the agents of tho groat liquor houses
tempted him with bribes day in and
day out. Yet his vlrtuo was suoh as
would shame a Cato. Tho Board of
Control was represented by the Attor
ney Goneral of the State. Col. Mixon
had as his bottle holder and champion
an acute and loarnod gentleman of tho
Columbia Bar. Owing to tho groat
dignity of the parties intorostod, tho
proceedings wore marked by tho most
delloate and gingerly manners of all
concerned, the exquisite tenderness of a
pink tea funotlon characterising the
bearing of the lofty personages. Li
Hung Chang's brusknoss has not af
fected tho oily courtliness of our State
house Columbia gontry. With tho sav
ory developments Indicated as above
tho high court called to LwvesViBata.*Jb.o

The News and Courier with its char
acteristic enterprise published on
Tuesday, tho 16th instant, its annual
exhibit of tho Industrial condition of
the city of Charleston for tho year
ending August 31st. It makes a fine
showing for tho old city with bright
ening prospects for tho future, all of
whioh every good Carolinian hopes to
see realized. Against all odds, in tho
teeth of obstruction and potty tyrany,
by a distraced State administration
the people of Charleston work, pros

highest civilization.

The Charleston Post startled tho

nudgos Mr. Gantt the electoral
nominee and Mr. Gantt explains.
'His sympathies wore aroused for
the Populists. "I argued that it
would be nothing but just and fair to
glvo the Populists the Vice Presi
dency in roturn for their suppoi t, if it
could bo dono according to party
usage." Thus the electoral nominee;
concedes to party "what was moant for
mankind."

Now that wo havo settled our own
little family quarrel our roadors aro
invited to turn their attontlon until the
Od dt November to bigger game. At
present we oan only direct their
optics to Bryan and Sowell, and Tom
Watson, MoKinley and Hobart, Pal
mer and Buoknor. We hav'nt the list
complete at hand, but will endeavor to
supply the defloienoy at an early day.

"Little Billy Ball" of the Charleston

wore the only Carolinians there, and
they had tho great privilege of cast

and Buokner. They must have thought
'how wo apples do swim.' It is a won

Now horo we havo a notablo exam
ple of the ignorance characteristic of
these times. Under the load of a
neighbor of tho Advocate, one John C.
Calboun, tho State held aloof from
participating in the national nominat
ing conventions, and refusing its votos
to the regular nominees. In tho mean
while one Gen. Commander of George
town represented the State in the
great party conventions and cast her
vote, After a convenient season, and
Oalhoun had been dead some years
anothor neighbor of the Advocate,
James L. Orr, "reversed" the Calhoun
idea and aftor a stalwart fight, brought
little rocalaitrant Carolina Into har
monious action with tho domooratio
organization. Here we havo history
repeating itsolf in the line of conduct
of this trio of Carolinians, who allogo
that tho Chicago platform is In lino
with tho Populism of tho sub-treasury
fad so popular two years ago. History
teaches somo good lessons if read aud
considered. Tho "Advocato" must

AS TO HAT6.
Blondiert Tihts Caused a Riot In Spain
Which Cost iftany T.lves.
Has not socio ono calculated that a
sixth part of the memoirs of St. Simon
in tho origiual is ocoupiod with tho
controversy whether or not tho presi
dont of parliament should wear his hat
or put it en tho desk when performing
various functions? At lougth the mat
ter was compromised. Tho Tiers-ctat
should wear a chapeau rabattu, which
had tho slouched brim pinned up. This
childish qnarrel was romcmbored, no
doubt, whon tho states general met aud
the king harangued them. His speech
wer, he put on his hot, aud tho noblesse
did likewise, according to their privi
lege. Tho comTTio'iV) had no suoh claim,
but they also clapped on thei* cbapean*
rabattns, amid fierce protests from the
nobles. Tho revolution might havo he
gun that day with a scrimmage iu the
king's presence had ho not removed his
own hat, when all, of course, did the
same.
Bnt slouched hats had already caused
a riot hi Spain, which lasted so long
and cost so many lives that it might al
most bo termed a civil war. This was
30 years earlier. Charles III thought
them untidy. Ho thought tho streets of
his enpifal untidy also and denounced
both eyesores in an odiot. Every Spaniard
henceforth must pin up his flopping
brim, and every householder of Madrid
must, clean t-he street opposite his prem
ise*. Forthwith the people rose. Thoy
wcro little interested, comparatively, in
the streot cleaning, but thoy would die
for f heir hats. And a good many of them
did, but not unnvonged. More than a
week the fray lasted, but it was thought
remarkable by foreign observers that at
53 p. m. regularly tho soldiers plied,
arms, tho furious Citizens withdrew
and silonoo reigned for ono hour. Both
parties wero enjoying the siesta, oxcept,
perhaps, tho wounded. After that inter
val they recommenced. Tho king fled,
and for tho rest of h'is lifo ho never re
turned to Madrid willingly. In fact, it
was understood ho designed to make Se
ville the capital henceforth, and only
gave np the project when his ministers
showed him what a vast sum ho had
already spent on tbo now pulaca So,
mighty may be tho influence of the hat
in state affairs I Finally tho king com
promised. He> withdrew his cdiot so
far as tho realm at large was concerned.
Within the walls of Madrid every man
must wear his brim pinned up, but out
sido ho was at liberty to lot it slouch.

WH ITH HAIRS IN In tho fighting ou
RATTIP tbo Fod?r?l ri?at
?A**Wa nt Antietam three
white baired horoon were conspicuous,
S manor, Greene and Munsfiold. Mans
field's age was 59, but hit* long, flowing
board of snowy white mado him conspic
uous as a leader. Tho eld hero was idiot
down early in tho fighting of his corps,
which ho was leading for tho first time
in battle. The circumstance of his doatii
was one of those trivial ones which
make certain phases of war seem oruolly
murderous. There had boon some hard
fighting on tho lino whore Mansfield
brought np his Twelfth corps to support
the attack of Booker's corps. Tho po
sitions of*the friendly troops nlready in
aetion could not bo determined at a
glance, and so many leaders had fallen
that there was uouo at hand to point out
the nit nation on that part of tho field.
The advance troops of the Twelfth
began firing across tho field, and their
loader, supposing that thoy wero shoot
ing down their friends of another com
mand, beckoned thorn to cease firing.
The men, however, were certain that
they were makiug targets of tho enemy,
and not understanding tho general's sig
nals continued to shoot. Mansfield thou
rode througli tho front lino and passed
along revei a I companies of the Tent h
Maina When ho ordorod tho mon to
ceaso firing, somo of tho officers told him
that tho troops who wero suffering woro
graycoats and that somo of thorn wero
at that moment training their rifles up
on him. Tho gonoral turned to rido buck
and was hit with a mortal wound boforo
ho had repas8cd tho line.
Snmuer was 08 years old at tho bat
tlo of Ant i et am. He had .always beou a
vigorous fighter aud his mcu called him
"Old Bull" Snmuer. When Hookor left
tho field, disabled, Sumuor took com
mand of tho right wiug. With all his
noted propousity for lighting ho was up -
p aj led at tho carnage in evidenco all
arouud him that day on tho right flank.
Learning that tho hat tie was to bo re
newed late in tho afternoon by n charge
of Franklin's rosorvo troops ho protested
aud pointed to tho wrecks of his brigades
aud divisions, as well as to tho prostrate
rouks, to omphasizo his words. Ho feared
that Fraukliu's attack, if successful,
could not bo sustained, aud it was sus
pended.
It was this failure to put in Frank
lin's men which drew criticism upon
McClellan. But Simmer's protest was
vory vigorous. Ho commanded tho right
wiug and was ono of tho generals whom
Lincoln bad appointed us au advise* for
the youug oommauder.
Greene led his division through somo
of the hardest fighting of tho field. It
was engaged ftvo hours steadily, and rit
times his men and tho Confederates op
posing them eng'aged in fierce musketry
duels at fifty paces. Tho hero was then
61 -yours old aud is still living, tho old

STORMING BURN- ?uly ono l?Oidont
of tho field of All
SIDES BRIDGE tiotam seems to havo
caught the imagination of tho painter.
That Ono is tho ohorgo across Antietam
srono bridgo by two of Burnsido's regi
ments. Tho theme is worthy an artist's
brush. Two attempts to carry the bridge
failed and tho third effort was glori
ously successful, nil tho more glorious
because tho chargo seemed to bo a for
lorn hope.
Crook's brigado made the first attack
upou tho bridge,.supported right and
loft by strong columns. Crook's men
approached tho bridge, tho enemy occu
pying a height . ncro*?.*b~-fclro.'flu, m
thoy halted und attempted to silonco its
defenders at long range. Naglo's brigado
then made a rush for tho harrier, pre
ceded by a cloud of skirmishers, with
Fedora 1 batteries covering tho attack by
a vigorous ennuouading of tho enemy's
line. This also failod. Burnsido then
ordered tho commander of tho division
comprising thoso brigades to carry tho
bridgo at all hazards. Colonel R. B.
Potter's rogimont, tho Fifty-first New
York, aud tho Fifty-first Pennsylvania,
under Colonel J. F. Ilurtruuft, wero
chosen for tho work and wero told to
rely solely upon tho bayonet for oxoou
tiou.
Tho regiments formed ou each sido of
tho road so as to move independently
while orossing
and after they
readied tho op

thoy passed tho high, arched center of
the struct uro, poured n Uro of canister
Upon tho farther end of tho bridgo to
provont any obstruction by tho enemy
at that point. TllO Confederate posit ion
was considerably above the level of tho
bridgo and of tho road, whioh, after
crossing niad? a gontlo asoeut of tho
abrupt blnff lining tho stream. For a
distance of BOO or 400 ynrds abovo and
below, tho bluff was occupied by tho in
fantry of Toombs' brigado of Georgians
and several pieces of artillory. Success
for the two dovotod regiments seemed
impossible, especially after two brigndqs
had failed mid three hours of almost
steady firing had not shaken Toombs'
lino of defense. But tho spirit of au at
tack is everything in a orisis like that
on tho Antietam. Taking n route leas

and Fennsylvoninns rushed at doublo

1804, beginning with her deadly soa

and ending with her collapso at the

Flusser handled one guu personally,
and his third shot, an 11 inch sholl, re

bemarlo, exploded and killed tho bravo
?gunner, also several men. Meanwhile
the rum got looso from tho Southfiold
and was making for the Miami. The
lattor backed away aud returned to Al
bemarlo sound.
As a result of tho Albomarlo's victory
over tho woodeu ships, General Hoke
mado an easy conquest of Plymouth,
capturing Goneral Wessels and his gar
rison. The ram nt once became u sea
monster, equal in tho eyes of friends
and foes to the terriblo Merrimao. Sho

Finally tho Sassoous, loaping undor tho
Impulse Of loosened engine wheels,
struck tho ram amidships and sent her

Plymouth, With two floating machines
carrying 100 pounds of powder each.
Tho mon ongagod in this hazardous
work were Oharlbs Baldwin, John W.

nearest the ram, and when ho had guid

Was ohallonged by a sentry on shore.

K. M. TURNER,*
41 N. Broad Street, Atlanta, Ga.
EN, who hold the purse strings, often deprive women of articles
of inestimable value. The wife pleads with her husband for
a Piano or an Organ, which is tenfold more essential than the
cigar anil other luxuries in which he indulges. The daughter
asks lather, or guardian, to buy an Instrument to enable her to
cultivate that beautiful talent, music. Does any sane man not
reli/.c this a reasonable right to plead and ask for? Reflect a minute !
Think of the means expended for instruction, and the many tedious
hours employed in practice by wife and daughter, and of their glowing
anticipations subsequently to be realized,
Now, father, husband, or guardian, are you going to blast all
these bright anticipations by denying them of this merited right?simply
the giit of a Piano or an Organ?
Give your wives and daughters their merited rights in the home,
which is "Woman'* Kingdom," then she will cease to clamor for politi
cal sufl'iage. Don't plead inability when such liberal terms and prices
are available,
My prices are right, terms easy, and quality of Instruments un
surpassed.
A If you desire prices and catalogues, please write me a letter or
postal card, and same will have prompt attention.
7 I challenge any house in America to do better for you, as I repre
sent the Manufacturers, have no Jobbers to pay, and can save you

exchange .(or new ones. \
