Tho big scandal in Penitentiary circles growing out of the manage ment of that State Institution Is to he regretted by all the people of the State. There have been intimations that the opponents of tho dispensary relish tho late unpleasant revelations as tending towards its abandonment by the State. The .suggestion Is cn tlroly unwarranted Whllo It Is true that the management and very enor mous patronage has been monopolised by its friends and advocates naturally, no friend to the Slate however op posod to tho State's oonduot of the whiskey business, takes pleasure in tho dlscomfituro of Its conductors, and the scandals recently attaching to their names. Necessarily the citizen ship of the management is very great and extensive and the scandal really affects the whole body of tho people No right minded person,tin refore,bow ever opposed to the State's monopoly, rejoices in the smirching of its many conductors. The opponents of the system know very well that It is ne cessarily rotten and corrupting and altogether undemocratic itself. Tt em ploys r.n army of agents whoso respon sibility cannot be guaranteed. As or ganized at this moment these scandals will go on; they cannot bo guarded against. Tt Is upon these considera tions that the opponents of tho Dis pensary demand that the State should abandon utterly the business. An In cidental curse to all forms of Govern ment Is the army of officials needed to conduct its departments. Corruption in all forms of government in every age has been the rule and society re cognizes that it must contribute a groat percentage for stealage as well as for legitimate and honest service. It appertains to the Navy, the army, the civil branches, and the problem of civilized Government is, has been, and will be, to have an honest service. But tho legitimate business ol gov ernment must have agents?only as a matter of necessity?self existence. In the present case?tho necessity does not exist?every principle of de mocracy and sound government is vio lated. Shame to our citizenship fol lows as effect the efficient cause and the scandals will continue to follow perpetual temptation. We can truly add that hundreds of democrats in the State recognising that a business like tho State's Dispensary Is no proper function of government, have ceased opposition for the sake of peace. They Seriously regret tho BOandals first and last, but are not surprised. * * * The Advertiser has received a oheok to pay for advertising the Gala week festivities of Charleston. The re spectful attention of those newspapers accustomed to nag at the city of Char leston are respectfully but firmly di rected to the contrast thus presented between Charleston and borne other towns In the neighborhood. Our recol lection Is that the near by city of Aug usta has had her gala times In past yenrs and has invited the county news papers of South Carolina to advertise them largely and freely. Tho county editor graciously Is treated every year, to a free pass, to tho stato fair but the undoubtedly enterprising city of Columbia has not been known to spend any money on advertising this event, so helpful financially to her, in tho back woods organs. Whatever ill natured observations, seasoned or not with a grain of truth, may be aimed at Charleston it must be proclaimed that she 13 not tho beggar and bum that some of her rivals are. While the stato fair is of interest to all South Carolina it is chlelly of pecuniary pro fit to the town where it is held and thoro arc some of us who have long since tired of advertising It, and Co lumbia in connection with It, gratis. Nevertheless the state fair and its town have never failed to receive con siderable exploitation in this and other country weeklies and wo sup pose that it and its town will continue to get it as long us the good nature of these weeklies yields to importunity and imposition. "** Thanksgiving. Governor McSweeney, following the President's Proclamation, appoints Thursday, the .'10th inst., for Thanks giving. Wo desiro to emphasize the following from the Governor's procla mation: * "Let tho people on this day also re member tho fatherless and not forgot the poor and the needy you have with you always, and that wc aro told by Him who made tho great sacrifice for us that it is mote blessed to give than to receive, and by our own deeds of oharlty prove tho sincerity of our gratitude. *** With a drain of Halt. Probably Out/ has not told tho truth, tho wholo truth and nothing olse but the truth. Possibly so of Has* eh!en and the rest. It is a pity how ever, to ho put on tho defensive? The public will undertake to sift tho wheat from the chaff. In tho meanwhile this same public wants its public offi cers as Caesar wantod his wife?abovo suspicion. *?* Atlanta had Admiral Schley to a gorgeous ovation on Saturday, having slipped up on Dew^y. *nd timely: If you can't gf t pudding you must tako pie. **? Kit seems that it was the "contra band" that was too much for tho DIs* p3nsary officials. No wonder. It was ever thus. Tho contraband atticlo is the trouble tho world over. Yon have hoard no doubt that Buck's Stovos aro good cookers and givo Hatisfaot; been ipformed each stove The CeioMini Phenomenon* My. Dkak Colonel: I I havo no doubt that you will bo ono of tho many millions of tho earth's inhabitants that will "look up" into tho concavity <>f the heavens (which "declare the glory") on tho night of tIn- I4tll instant to watch tho beautiful, yet startling sconic display of tli" '?shooting stars." The "scene" will be witnessed provided tho night ho clear. It was an unwar ranted prediction of Prof. Fall), of Austria, to state that whon the meteors and tho earth mot it would bo to the injury of our planet. Prof. Flammnrion, of Franco, an astronomer of grontor notoriety, says there is no fear of tins, inasmuch as Comets and their disintegrated particles are "imponderable masses" and that when the meteors meet the oarth, in its rapid sweep upon its orbit, they simply fall upon the cushion of our atmosphere and blaze and burn and disappear as dust. It is true that, but for the mil lions of atmospheric air envelop ing and protecting our plauot, the great depth the meteors havo to fall and the rapidity of their (light, our oarth would l?e greatly endangered. Occasionally me teorites or aorobites do fall. It is of record that several hundred have fallen during the century about to closo. One passed over Laurens and fell in the upper part of the Stato somo years ago, yet wo seldom hoar of injury result ing therefrom. It was cruel of Prof. Fall) to make a declaration so hold and bald. It has borne fruit already among many of the pensants of Southern Russia, who havo aban doned their work and returned to thoir homes. "He that watcheth the planets in their sweep and careth for tin tiniest babe asleep," will :.<-t suf fer the world to be destroyed by a "shower of burning stars." IT'* preparing tho world, through his church, for a greater manifus ion of his powor. IIo is appar ently anxious to close up this dis pensation, and the signs of tho times seem to indicate it. But apart from this, is it not strange, Mr. Editor that compar atively so few of us listen to "the silent voices of the night," or watch the planets when in pari heliou, in conjunction, opposition or ascension upon their mightily moving billows of electrical light ? Viewing the grand ensemble of nature and "thinking" about tho immensity of the Universe one can but stand in awe and adoration of the glory, grace and grandeur of the great Jehovah's work. R. H.
