ELBERT H. AULL, EDITOR. ELBERT H. AULL, Proprietors. WM. P. HOUSEAL, P NEWBER.RY, S. C, W30S1Y. FB!WARI 1, 189. THE DISPENSAL-Y LAW. We heartily agree with an editorial in 'the last issue of our cotemporary, the Observer. It is brought forth we presume by the refusal of Mr. Hill to accept the position of State Dispenser tendered him by Gov. Tillman. Our cotemporary then quotes the following from the Baptist Courier: "We are sorry that our State has created an office which can not con sistently be filled by a Christian." It then continues as follows: "There is much in that to think about. And the more we think the more we become convinced that min isters of the Gospel have made a serious mistake in being drawn into an endorsement of the law. They say it is better than licensed barrooms, and we agree with them in believing so; but that remains to be seen. One may say that petty larceny is not so bad as grand larceny; but he ought not to en dorse petty larceny, or give it even a quasi endorsement. "This fact stands out conspicuously: Ministers and other Christian people who have been denouncing liquor-sell ing as a sin against God and a crime against humanity are endorsing the law that makes the State sell liquor and that creates thirty-six offices that, according to high authority, 'cannot consistently be filled by a Christian.' But, say they, they only endorse it as against licensed barrooms. As a moral question there isn't a particle of differ ence. Would anybody 'endorse' petty larceny as against grand larceny? Both are alike wrong." That is all very true, and The Herald and News has wondered all along how those who were conscientiously op posed to the traffic in liquor, and who looked upon it as a moral wrong, and who were prohibitionists from prin ciple, could endorse the dispensary law, which not only does not do away with the business, but makes the State the chief dealer. Some enthusiastic supporters of the present Administra tion no doubt would have endorsed anything that Gov. Tillman recom mended, but we have been a little sur prised at the attitude of some who give this measure endorsement. And even the Observer, not two weeks before the above was written, gavethe bill its endorsement; at least, The Herald and News so considered it. The Observer said, January 12, speak ing of the dispensary law: "Our observation is that, with the exception of the barkeepers, there is no 'kicking' of any consequence, and that the large majority of the business men and leading citizens are heartily in favor of the dispensary law as against the saloon." No-doubt it was moved to this en dorsement of the law by the approval it received from such men as Dr. Grier of Erskine and Dr. Carlisle of Woflord, for in that same issue it says: "It is a strong defense of the dis pensary law that it has the approval of such men as President Carlisl'e of Wof ford College and President Grier of Erskine-both eminent advocates of temperance and prohibition. "They would prefer prohibition to the dispensary, but prefer the dispensa ry to saloons. * * * * * "We sincerely hope the Dispensary Act will stand the test of the courts and that all good citizens will unite in seeing that it has a full and fair ex periment." The Herald and News is glad to see that a change has come over the dreams of our cotemporary. and that. it now sees the full force of the dispensa ry law: that under this new law, while the editor of the Observer is a prohibi tionist on principle, yet he will be made a partner in the liquor business and will share in the profits of its sale. The Herald and News adopts the closin'g words of the editorial in the Observer of January 26, and commends them to the editor of that paper and * all other prohibitionists who are now endorsing the dispensary law: * "We seriously fear the public mind is in a fair way to be debauched on the subject of liquor-selling. "We think many good people, in publicly endorsing the measure, have allowed themselves to be used, and in so doing have been betrayed into a mistake that will cause them profound regret." No doubt the Observer already re grets its. former endorsement of this law, and, as it now sees its error and acknowledges it, we can but commend its course to other prohibitionists, who are endorsing the new law. There is no use trying to be consist ent when you find that you have been wrong. Remember that as great a man as Mr. Emerson in one of his essays says: "A foolish consistency is the hob goblin of little minds, adored by little statesmen and philosophers and divines. With consistency a great soul has simply nothing to do. He may as well concern himself with his shadow on the wall. . .. If you would be a man, speak what you think to day in words as hard as cannon balls, and to-morrow speak what to-morrow thinks in hard words again, though it contradict everything you said to day." It is, perhaps, prophetic that the Evans dispensary law has struck a Hill at the very beginning of its career. -Greenville News. But the Hill has gotten from under 3 and will not stand as a stumbling block, as it were, in the way of the new law. Mr. Hill is a genuine prohi bitionist, and is not willing to sell liquor even for the State. It is really amusing to see how some erstwhile great advocates of prohibi tion, and who could not say mean enough things about selling and drink ing whiskey, now laud and praise the dispensary bill because there is a hope of revenue in it for the State. Even in Republican Kansas the Democrats have elected a "United States Senator. Judge John Martin has been chosen. He has been a life long Democrat, but in the last cam paign in that State united with the Populists to whip the Republicans, and has been successful. What has become of the Hon. J. J. Ingalls? He, we presume, is still "a statesman out ofajiob."1 WHAT THE COUNTRY NEEDS. The man who thinks more of party than of country cannot be a statesman. The man who would let the material interests of his State suffer for the sake of the favor of the narrow-minded and ignorant is as much a traitor as was Benedict Arnold. - What the country needs most, especially the South, is "public spirit" in public men. The South, being in greatest need of devel )pment, is in greatest need of devolop ing forces.-Manufacturers' Record. That is all very true. The trouble with some sections of the country is that we are getting too much in the fabit of looking to the government for relief and material prosperity. What we need is to be governed just as little is possible and for every one to go to work to help himself, and in so doing ielp the section and community in which he lives. This section of the :ountry needs to get rid of so much ?olitics and go to work building up ur natural resources. We sometimes fear there is very lit :le statesmanship left in this practical ge. There is not much sentiment, mnd consequently every politician is nterested more in doing that which will secure his re-election or promotion han he is in what will be for the gen ral good. Unfortunately it is not always the most popular thing to do what con icience says is right and will redound to the general good. The demagogue till at times stalks abroad over the land. But it is true that our public men of rhe South should do those things that will tend to baild up our material in terests. Capital should not be petted mud fondled and given any special ad vantages, but it should have fair treat ment and be dealt justly with. Spite work and prejudice should not influ ance our Legislatures. What we need mnd want is fair dealing all around. We need manufacturing enterprises Df all kinds; and organizations of money should not be fought, but should be given justice and strict im partiality before the law. The Trustees of Clemson College have invited the faculty to meet with them at the college this week to con sult and confer and arrange for the opening. The Herald and News is anxious to mee the college in operation since it has been undertaken, and we hope it will be a success. It can be so made, and we believe will; but we believe also that the trustees are building for more students than they will have for years to come, but it will do no harm. We trust the college will- be abundantly auccessful. AN UNANSWERED QUESTION. Elsewhere Tb4e Herald and News publishes an editorial from the State n the State debt question which is more of an inquiry than anything else, and which the State says in its issue :>f Monday that Gov. Tillman plumply cieclines to answer because the State asks it. That is not the spirit in which the Governor of a great State should treat the humble inquiry of one of its sitizens. The State claims it has reli able information which prompts it.to make the inquiry. If Gov. Tiliman had the offer to sell the 4} per cent. bonds at par, and then refused it and paid some one else 21 to take them, the people are entitled to know his reasons. They may be good and sufficient cnes, but in justice to himself he should give them. If he had no such off'er it would be a very simple and easy matter to say so. rhis is a matter in which all the citi lens of the State are interested, and should not be considered one of politics but of business. The Herald and News is very glad *ndeed that the bonds have been placed even at the commission paid, but then f the taxpayers could have been saved $135,000 we think it should have been lone, unless there are good and suffi sient reasons for refusing such an offer, md if there were, the Governor ought x> tell the people what they were. There seems to be little doubt that such an offer was made, and the refusal >f the Governor to answer the question put to him by the State points strongly n that direction. There can be no harm, Governor, in Letting the people know whether such an offer was made or not, and if it was, n giving your reasons for not accept ing it. They will no doubt be good mnd sufficient, and The Herald and biews believes for this once, if it wsre n your place it would answer the juestion, even though it were asked by he State. It seems that the first act of the new B3oard of Railroad Commissioners in he effort to enforce the new railroad aw was in violation of the law they were trying to carry out. They should move slowly and surely. They gave 2otice of a reduction in the rate on ~ertilizers on a certain road, but did 20t give the road time or opp>rtunity o0 answer, as the law requires. It is said that the Union Alliance tores are to be discontinued in this state. There is only one in this coun :y-the one at Slighs. Our farmers no loubt have found that they -~m make mbout as good arrangements with our )wn merchants, whom they know. Senator M. C. Butler has been spoken >f for Postmaster-General in Mr. Cleve and's cabinet. It will suit The Herald mad News very well, but it is said Mr. Butler prefers his present seat in the S,enate. Some one suggested that President Harrison resign and have it understood ~hat Vice President Morton Eppoint 3im as the successor of Justice Lamar. )f course Mr. Harrison will do no such hing. The Herald and News has bardly believed that Mr. Harrison would make the appointment, the va ~ancy occurring so near the expiration >f his te rm, though he may, as his par y has lost nearly everything lately. [f he does he ought to, and no doubt will, select a Southern man. Knowing politicians say that Mr. 31eveland has settled upon Mr. Bay mrd, Mr. Carlis1e and Mr. Lamont as members of his Cabinet. Mr. Bayard was a member of the Cabinet during is for mer naministrationn A SIMPLE SUGGESTION. If Gov. Tillman will take the sug gestion in the spirit in which it is of fered, and not consider it meddling, The Herald and News thinks that he might find a man in Newberry County who would accept the office of State Dispenser of whiskey. Newberry County has two men wno come to our mind now-and no doubt there are many more-who have writ ten and talked prohibition for a long time, and who we believe are genuine prohibitionists from principle; at least that is our understanding. Now, one or the other of these might be induced to accept the office of State Dispenser. And, then, Newberry has not re ceived a great deal under the present Administration, and she no doubt is entitled to this place. Then these men are very heartily in favor of the Dis pensary Law and commend very warm ly and earnestly the idea of the State engaging in the liquor business. One of these gentlemen is the editor of our esteemed cotemporary the Pros perity Press and Reporter, and the other is its Broad River correspondent. We make no charge for this sugges tion; but, as the Governor seems un able to find a man, we are willing to help him out if we can. The whiskey dealers held a meeting in Charleston last Tuesday and de cided to fight the Evans dispensary bill in the courts. An executive com mittee of fifty was appointed to raise the necessary funds and to look after the matter. Another big law suit is coming on, and it will be bitterly contested. NOW YOU HAVE IT STRAIGHT. Gov. Tillman Tells the People What He Thinks of it-The Dispensary Law Will Have to be Enforced-The State Bar rooms to be Kept Busy. LThe State, 3lst.1 Governor Tillman had something to say yesterday, that will be of especial interest to some prohibitionists. It may make Good-Templar Brunson and some of his followers think a little. For some time there has been talk that the prohibitionists and out-and-out anti-dispensary people were going to combine and prevent the dispensaries from being established, by withholding the signatures of the majority of the freeholders. Here is the statement Governor Tillman made to the press yesterday: "It is my opinion, and it may be taken for what it is worth, that any prohibitionist who refuses to co-operate with me in the establishing of dispen saries by not signing the petitions of the dispensers and assisting the gov ernment in every possible way to en force, rather than to prevent it going into effect, they will regret it. "The threatened alliance between the whiskey men and other political opponents, who are bitterly opposed to the law, and the prohibitionists, who are in favor of it, may bring about such a state of dissatisfaction as will seri ously cripple me in my efforts to help the cause of temperance. "If the prohibitionists are bamboozled by the opposition into lending their aid to this end, they will be likely to find themselves in the condition of the dog in the fable, who seeing his shadow reflected In the water, snapped at it and lost what he had. "There will be absolute prohibition in every, county where the sale of liquor is prohibited by law. Not even druggists being allowed to sell it for medicine, nor can it be shipped into those counties by express or otherwise under the new law, and, therefore, the experiment as to whether the people will stand absolute prohibit ion will be made in at least six counties, and I shall take particular pains to see that the law is as strictly enforced in those counties as it is anywhere else, let it cost what in may. "It will be time enough for the pro hibitionists to advance to a stronger position after they have found that they can hold what has alr&ady been gained." ________ SENATOR IRBY AND BUTLER. Irby Admits his Deal with Boke Smith, but Denies he was Actuated by Hos tility to his Colleague. [Special to News and Courier.] WASHINGTON, January 28.-Senator Irby objects to being placed in tbe atti tude of antagonizing the appointment of his collesgue to a Cabinet position. When the News and Courier reached here containing the account of the Irby-Smith alliance it created quite a sensation, especially in the South Caro lina colony. Those members of the Congressional delegation who had not heardof the subject before hunted in dustriously for further light on the sub ject. I met Senator Irhy at the Senate, with a copy of the News and Courier in hi hand. He saiid he had no com plaint to makp ag'ainst th" publication of the informaltion, colnaed in my dispatch. exceping~ that p'art which intimated hais hoaliiiy to Sentator Butler. A for revi-wingr the sittuation the Senator regiistedI me to make the following stat'mnent. to relieve the minds of the people in South Carolina who might imagine that he was deal ing in treachery towards his col league. "I desire to say," remarked the Sena tor, with great. earnestness. "that so far as report in WVashington or elsewhere that my advocacy of Mr. Hoke Smith for a Cabinet position, is intended to thwart the wishes of Senator Butler's friends, is a positive falsehood. I never heard a rumor or a suggestion that Senator Butler was regarded as a Cab inet possibility until after my return from New York. I would rejoice to see Senator Butler go into the Cabinet. What I did for Mr. Smith was because I consider him an able representative of the Democracy of the South. I am glad I did it. I have no apologies to make." WAS IT ALL FOR EFFECT'? That Appointment of state Rum Seller WVas Not Meant to stand---Mr. HiHl's. A ttitude. [Special to News and Courier.] ANDERSON, January 2 -The ap pointment of Mr. R. S. Hill as State dispenser must have been, as your Columbia correspondent suggests, a big bluff'on thbe part of Governor Till man. If the Governor knew anything at all about Mr. Hill he must have known that the salary provided for the dispenser was not near so large as his present income, and, therefore, that, from a financial standpoint, Mr. Hill would have had to seriously secrifice his personal interests to accept the posi tion offered him. And, again, had the Governor known Mr. Hill's views on the liquor traffic he surely would not have tendered him the position of "boss bar-keeper" of the State, no mat ter how highly he may have thought of his business capacity and integrity. I am satisfied that the Governor's ac tion was not prompted by any intima tion from Mr. Hill that he might ac cept the position. Doubtless the Gov ernor would have been highly pleased had he accepted, and hoped he would, but unless the Governor made a leap in the dark, and I believe he does sometimes, he knew that Mr. Hill wouldn't seriously consider the accept ane of the place ne moment. JAMES G. BLAINE IS DEAD. ur Quietly, Peacefully and Painlessly, and. In Full Consciousnees, the Great Man Goes to His Final reward. WASHIiGTON, Jan. 27.-James G. Blaine died at 11 o'clock this morning.I He passed a restless night, and this morning was very weak. Shortly be fore 9 o'clock a change for the worse occured, and both physicians were hastily summoned, and remained at his bedside until he died. His death was quiet and peaceful, and be retained consciousness until a few minutes be fore death. His entire family, Miss Dodge and the trained nur:.es were at his bedside. The news of Blaines' death spread like wild-fire. Crowus gathered on the corner, and visitors flocked to the house. Dr. Hamlin, who -as passing the house when the announcement of death was made, at once entered and remained with the family for some time. Word was sent to ihe President im mediately after Mr. Blaine's death. At 11 23, President Harrison, accompanied by Private Secretary Halford and Lieut. Parker, walked over to the Blaine mansion. The President showed marked signs of grief. Postmaster Gen eral Wanamaker followed the footsteps of the President. Secretary Foster of the State Depart meut was at home, preparing to leave town, when he was notified by tele phone of Mr. Blaine's death. He post poned his trip and ordered the Depart ment to be closed. . THE FUNERAL MONDAY. WASHINGTON, Jan. 27-A public funeral was sugaested,,but the wishes of the family prevailed, and the cere monies will be of a private nature. They will be held at the Presbyterian Church of the Covenant, where Mr. Blaine was a pew-holder, and will be conducted by Dr. Hamlin, who oflici ated at the funeral of Mrs. Harrison and her father. Mr. Blaine's remains will be buried in Oak Hill Cemetery, Georgetown, in the same lot with his son Walker and his daughter, Mrs. Coppinger, who died in the house in which Mr. Blaine's body now lies. CONDOLENCE AND SYMPATHY. WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-The mess ages of condolence and sympathy re ceived by the family of Mr. Blaine were very numerous, and from men of all political parties. Among them was the following from Grover Cleveland: "His brilliant statesmanship will always be an inspiration to the nation he has served so long and so well. Permit me to express my sympathy in the death of your distinguished husband." Others were from Governors Flower, of New York, Patterson, of Pennsylvania, Crounz, of Nebraska, Cleaves, of Maine, Nelson, of Minnesota, and Boies, of Iowa; Robert Lincoln, J. B. Foraker, Andrew Carnegie, Chief Justice Fuller, James S. Clarkson, William McKinley, Jr., and from many organized bodies; civil, political and religious. Dispatches received here announce that the Legislature of all Northern States now in session adjourned upon the announcement of Mr. Blaine's death, as did also the North Carolina, Tennessee and Kentucky legislatures. PRESIDENT'S PROCLAMATION. WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-The Presi dent has issued the following proclarna tion: EXECUTIVE MANSION, WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-It is my painful duty to announce to the people of the UJnited States the death of James Gillespie Blaine, which occurred in this city to-day at 11 o'clock. For a full gene ration this eminent citiz"n has occu pied a conspicuous and influential posi tion in the nation. His first pabiic ser vice was in the Legislature of his State. Afterwards, for fourteen years, he was a member of the National House of Representatives, and was three times chocen its Speaker. In 1876 he was elected to the Senate. He re signed his seat in that body in 1881 to accept the position of Secretary of State in the Cabinet of President Gar field. After the tragic death of his chief, he resigned from the Cabinet, and, devoting himself to literary work, gave to the public in his--"Twenty Years in Congress" a most valuable and enduring contribution to our political literature. In March, 1889, he again be came Secretary of State, and continued to exercise this office until June, 1892. His devotion to the public interests, his marked ability and his exalted pa triotism have won for him the gratitude and affection of his countrymen and the admiration of the world. In the varied pursuits of legislation, diploma cy and literature his genius has added new lustre to Awmerican citizenship. As a suitable expression of the aa tional appreciation of his great public services, and of the general sorrowv caused by his death, I direct that on the day of his funeral all departments of the executive branch of the Govern ment at Washington be clesed, and that on all public buildings throughout the United States the national flag shall be displayed at half-staff, and that for the period of thirty days the Department of State be draped in morning. BENJ. HARtRIsON. By the Presidsnt: JOHN W. FOSTER, Secretary of State. CONGRESS ADJOURNS. I WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-In the Sen ate to-day, as soon as the reading of yesterday's journal was ended, the announcement of Mr. Blaine's death was made by Mr. Hale, wvho has been for many years.one of the closest per sonal and political friends of the dead statesman, and who said the event would carry sadness and mourning throughout all the United States, and would awaken interest and sorrow v'erever civilized man lived. His re marks were followed by a motion by Mr. Cockrell that the Senate adjourn, out of respect to the memory of the deceased, and that motion was de clared carried. The adjournment to-day makes the sixth interruption of business in the Senate caused by death within the last few weeks. On Wed nesday, the the 11th of this month, there was an adjournment on the announcement of Senator Kenna's death, and nextday on account of his funeral ceremonies. Wednesday the 18th, the death, and Friday, the 20th, the funeral of ex-President Hayes, caused adjourn ment. Tuesday of the present week the Senate adjourned out of respect to the memory of Justice Lamar of the Supreme Court; and to-day the same ceremony was observed in honor of Mr. Blainie. PROCEEDINGS IN THE HOUSE. WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-Then, after brief and afi'ecting speeches by Messrs. Milliken (who rerresents Mr. Blaine's old district) and Mr. Holman (who served many years with him in the House aud. who has always been his personal friend), the House, out of respect to the memory of the dead statesman, adjourned.
