WORTH THE APPROPRIATION.
The "Handbook of South Carolina,"
recently published by the Department
of Immigration and Agriculture of
South Carolina, of which E. J. Watson
is the head, is in itself worth to the
State the whole amount of the appro
priation given to the department for
one year.
A copy of the book should be kept in
the teacher's desk of every schoolroom
in the State. It would be found valu
able for reference every day.
THE PRESIBENT'S MESSAGE.
President Roosevelt sent to Congress
a special message last week, in which
he said that he did not cause the panic,
but that if his utterances about corrup
tion on the part of high financiers had
caused it he would do it again. We do
not admire Mr. Roosevelt. He is never
consistent, and not always sincere. But
he did the country a service in sending
this message. Of course there is a
disposition when money gets scarce to
be tender with the men who have the
money, even though they have stolen
it. We suppose if we .had a millionaire
in Laurens, and he was known to be a
swindler, and was about to be prose
cuted, and trouble should arise in some
of our local banks, some of their de
puoitors and stockholders would sneak
li to the solicitor and beg him, for
goodness sake, to let up on the swin
dler, so that the latter might come to
L i - help of the banks. TJiat's what the
editor of The Advertiser might do.
But it would be wrong. It would encour
age the swindler in his robbing opera
tions, and they would be more helpless
than before in the swindler's grip.
That >s what Mr. Roosevelt, who some
times appoints negroes to office, has
said in substance, and we heartily agree
with him.
Men and brethren, the main trouble
with this country Is that you and I?
the "common people," as Mr. Bryan
calls us- do not always want the break
ers of the Eighth Commandment to be
sent to jail, if it means that you and I
will lose a little trade in the way of job
printing and advertising, or groceries
or hardware, or if it means that our
bank or cotton mill stock or farm land
will go down in value.
PROHIBITION DEFEATED.
The Nash prohibition bill has been
Iri??dJ in the House of Representatives.
Had the House passed it, the Senate
would have killed it.
By the way, there is not, never has
been, nor ever will be prohibition in
South Carolina or in any part of South
Carolina. What our people mean by
"prohibition" is the placing of statu
tory regulations about the whisky traf
fic that make it more difficult for one
man to get whisky than for another to
get it. Spartanburg abolishes the
whisky traffic, voting out the grog
shops. Supposing that the blind tigers
are also driven out, the Spartanburg
man who wants whisky, and is willing
to pay for it, orders it from Richmond
or Chattanooga, or perhaps from Mar
ion, N. C. So whisky drinking is not
prohibited. No State and no locality in
America knows what is meant by a
"prohibition that prohibits," a prohibi
tion that stops the consumption of in
toxicants, because no State or locality
has had that experience. Senator Till
man's bill to prohibit the sending of
intoxicants from a wet into a dry State
would be a long step in the direction
of real prohibition, but Senator Till
man's bill will not paw? -at least not
until years have ^one by. If intoxi
cants coulJ not be made in nor come
IntoJPpartanburg or Greenville, there is
guessing how those counties would
vote on the question, because the vo
ters are utterly unacquainted with such
conditions.
Meantime the sort of pr ohibition that
we have is a good thing for the coun
ties or towns that are willing to enforce
it. The day never was when the Clin
ton man who wanted whisky, and had
the money, couldn't get it in a day or
two. Yet it has been excellent for
Clinton that barrooms and dispensaries
have not existed for fifty years.
We have always had local option in
South Carolina of a sort. We have now
a dispensary in Laurens township and
none in Young's, because the people of
the respective townships want them and
do not want them. In Charleston the
people want neither dispensaries nor
prohibition. They want saloons. They
have the same right to demand and to
have what they want as have Laurens
and Young's, and it is not just and it is
not fair for Laurens and Young's (we
use these townships for illustration
merely) to force their v'cws on Charles
ton.
Their never will be co-operation and
unity between the people of South
Carolina until they are fair to each
other?until every community accords
to other communities sincerity and
honesty of motive.
The constitution of South Carolina
?night to be amended, so that every
community may handle this question as
it wishes to do. That is the law now
in tho moat enlightened and progressive
States of the Union.
THE DISPRNSARY LITIGATION.
The whisky dealers who have claims
against the State dispensary, and the
former officials of the concern now un
der arrest, are resorting to every de
vice known to the technicalities of law
and the arts of sophistry to save them
aelves from exposure and punishment.
We do not know whether they will sue
ceed or not. Everybody in South Caxor
Una is convinced of the essential guilt
of most of the whisky houses and of
most of the parties under arrest, though
everybody hopes that in a fair and free
trial evlry mother's son of them will be
able to establish his innocence and clear
his name. No honest man has any pa
tience with any public man who forgets
for an instant that arrival at the truth
of the whole matter is the thing desir
able and allows his mind te be diverted
to a side issue, so that his influence is
arrayed on the side of the men charged
with felony and who are struggling to
escape.
One thing we would like to impress
on the people of Laurens: They can
depend on Fr?ser Lyon. There may be
some who are presumed to be with him
in the pursuit of the grafters, and who
are of no consider?ble assistance to
him: but Lyon is honest, bold and
straight. He has done greater public
service to South Carolina in the cause
of decent government and common
honesty than any one man in public of
fice who has lived in the State since
Hampton was elected governor. Neils
Christensen, of Beaufort, has been his
indispensable second in all of his work.
We have plenty of brilliant lawyers and
farmers, too,who are patriots, but what
we have needed in South Carolina was
a man of intelligence who was not
afraid to assault entrenched dishonesty,
and Lyon i3 the man whom the emer
gency produced. We tell you now,
Laurens men, he is going ahead?turn
ing aside to listen to no appeal to relax
his efforts to enforce the law against
malefactors. He has a hard fight on
his hands. He needs your support aud
encouragement. He is not going to
quit his job so long as there is hope of
accomplishing results, and every true
man and woman who loves his or her
country will stand by him.
One other thing: It was openly said
by a lawyer in Asheville last week,dur
ing the hearing before Judge Pritchard,
that a resolution had been killed in tho
South Carolina Senate because some of
the senators, lawyers, were employed
by persons interested in the dispensary
litigation and investigation. Whether
this is true or not, we do not know.
But if it is true, we regret that every
lawyer-senator so situated did not rise
in his scat and explain that, because of
his professional connection with the
subject matter, he would ask to be ex
cused from voting upon any question af
fecting it. This is what lawyers like
the late William H. Wallace or the late
William D. Simpson would have done
in the old times, had they been simi
larly placed, while serving in the Legis
ature._

TILLMAN ON THE LIEN LAW
Regards it a Curse and Drawback to
Land Owners.
Columbia, Jan. 27.? While be was in
the city last week, Senator Tillman was
asked his views on the lien law, and he
replied:
"Merely speaking as a farmer and as
one familiar with all conditions in
South Carolina for 25 years past I must
say that I have always felt that the
lien law, while a benefit to a certain
class of the poor white people, was a
great drawback and curse to the land
owners, because it put them in power
of the negroes to demand rent rather
than co submit to the supervision of the
landlords, the result being the destruc
tion of land and fertility of .soil and ab
solute destruction where the country
was hilly by washing away of the soil.
Labor is growing more and more de
moralized as cotton rises in price, be
cause the negroes can easily gather the
little money they want for clothing and
the gratification of their appetites.
The repeal of the law will injure no
honest white man or no honest negro,
and it is certainly not our business to
look after the dishonest ones."

ractical Painters
Find MASTIC MIXED PAINTS thoroughly practical. A combi
nation of lead and zinc in proper proportion, it is superior to any paint
made of lead alone. Hand made paints mixed in a can and stirred with
si stick cannot produce results like
Mastic Mixed Paint,
"The Kind that Lasts,"
(Iround and re-ground by powerful machinery which therefore produces
a smoother, glossier and more beautiful finish, covers more surface and
resists the elements better. The cost of putting on poor paint is just
as much as for putting on MASTIC PAINT that does not have to be re
newed every year or so. The saving is all in favor of MASTIC PAINT.
