ELBERT H. AULL, I Proprietors. Wx. P. HOUSEAL, f ELBERT H. AULL. ED>T01. THE.STATE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEI! Elsewhere we publish the full pro ceedings of the State Executive Com mittee. By the rules adopted by th committee the coming primary resolve itself into a white lirimary solely an< simply. So far as we are concerned wi have no objection to such a plan. Ever: one who will take the pledge to abid the result is entitled to vote, whethe he be Popuiist,Republican or Democrat Of course if he takes part he will b bound to support the nominees. Tha suits The Herald and News all right We are for anything in South Carolin: that is honorable, that requires no sacri fice of principles, that will keep th< white people together and restore peac and harmony. Now under this ruling there shoul be a free and fair primary. An opel field without any caueuses oranythinj of thatkind. If the primary is the thinj we should let it be a free and open field But from the way the campaign i arranged, it looks as if the committe was shaping things to fit tbe Rforn caucus or convention that is to~be heli in Columbia in August rather than act ing for all the white people and Demc erats of the State. It does looks lik rather that this committee was tb committee of the Reform factio1 rather than the committee of the ei tire party. Why should the ctu paign be so rushed as to get throug] long before the State Convention an just prior to the Reform caucus tha is to be held to say who to ran for th offices? . But then as only Reformers are to b in the race, and if they are willing t submit to such a plan, it suits us ver; well. The Herald and News has n candidate for any office and is securel, perched upon the fence and expects t watch the contest below and get a] the fun out of it possible, criticising an condemning, or praising and commend ing as it. sees proper to do without fea or favor. We want to see best mei win, and if we are to have no caucu In county affairs, as the Rev. J. A Sligh has said, why we shall be satisfied because we have great confidence ii the white people of Newberry, an know they will do right if let alone. The coupon business in the newspa pers makes us tired. WE BEG PARDON. Brother Kirkland is so puffed up ii his own conceit and with his very grea greatness that he terms it "a -piece a impertinence" for a little country ed itor even to have the temerity to sug gest a man worthy to be his successol A couple of weeks ago The Herald ani News very modestly suggested that a Dr.Kirkland had been called tosa highe and larger field -we .thought that Rev 3. Walter Daniel would make a worth; successor as. editor of the Souther, Christian Advocate. That was on opinien then, and is our opinion now~ We did not care a.snap what the put lishing committee thought about i1 Wsreally did not know who they were and do not suppose they saw our sug gestion, and our. good Brother Kirk land is very careful not to mention th name of the gentleman we suggested We doubt if he knows that we sag gested his name. Certainly we did noJ tell him. Does Brother Kirkland doubt o question the worthiness of the man w suggested, and if so, why? Hear wha he'says:~ "This may be all very true but why should we go to a member o the Lutheran Church to learn wha ought to be editor of a Methodist.pa per?" "It may be true, eh? Why thei this doubt over it? Is it not true tha .Brother Kirkland has some man tha he wants to take his place? If not why should he become so indignant a a simple suggestion- and expression c opinion? If he has such great confi dence in the publishing committee and is not trying to influence them il favor of his man, why should he worn himself into such a rage over a simpl< suggestion? Surely he did not fear th influence of the suggestion on the corn mittee? We opine that if we hai struck his man there would not havy been so much fireworks and rage ii the columns of the Southern Christiai Advocate a.t a simple little suggestion But then "Bro. Aull is a Lutheran and any suggestion from him is imper tinent." Bro. Aull is a member of thi Lutheran Church, but The Herald ane News is no more a Lutheran paper thai it is a Methodist paper. And we havy noticed that heretofore and on an' other subject when The Herald an< News said a kind word about a Meth odist brother, as it has often been ou pleasure to do, it was not-only not con sideled "impertinent," but was copie< in the Advocate. Petty and Wood ari not Lutherans, and suggestions fron them for Dr. Kirkland's place wer< considered equally "impertinent." Bro Aull being a Lutheran is not the mill in theicocoanut. The Herald and News gives Bro Kirkland notice that it matters verd little to us who the publishing comn pany may select, but we also desire him to understand that he cannot keej us from having an opinion and giving expression to it, even if it be in the matter of his successor. What his * opinion of it may be does not concerr us in the least. We rather think, how ever, from all that Bro. Kirkland has said in the Advocate recently on thi; subject that in his opinion it will b4 impossible for the publishing commit tee to .find a man in the Melbodist Con. ference or out of it who can fill hi: place. Now we most humbly beg his par don, since we decided to make a sag gestion, that we did not suggest thi man Bro. Kirkland is trying to get the publishing committee to name as hi: successor, but you know it is not al ways true that all greai minds run ir the same channel, and having made a suggestion we still stand by it. The coal strike exists in fourteet States and two territories, and there 175,000 miners have quit work. The miners are demanding 75 cents per ton instead forty to fifty cents they have THE PROHIBITION CONVENTION. The Prohibitionists held their con vention in Columbia last week, adopted a plrtform, passed some resolutions and adjourned. That was about all they could do, we presume. There was a strong sentiment in the convention for the nomination of a State ticket, but it - was evident that some of the Prohibi tionists were unwilling to do anything or take any steps that would come in 3 conflict with or hurt or injure their political faction. Their action does 3 not amount to much, -bu then possibly I it did no harm. There was a large per cent. of one time prohibitionists in the r convention who are now advocates of the dispensary system. The Prohibi a tionists would have had a very small t following even if they had put up a State ticket unless their strength had come from those who have heretofore - opposed prohibition. The whiskey question in this State a presents at this time a rather anoma lous condition. A large majority of i those who have heretofore claimed to I be prohibitionists from principle, and E have all along claimed that the sale of E whiskey was an unmitigated evil, and that statutory prohibition of the sale s wa the remedy, have all at once awoke to the conclusion that practical pro 1 hibition was impossible and that the solution of the wholematter was in the - dispensary system, and that so long as the State sold whiskey, whether for a medicinal purposes or as a beverage, it D was all right and the proper thing to I do. While on the other hand, those - who have.opposed prohibition are.now - ready to votea prohibition ticket, -and I would prefer statutory prohibition to i the dispensary. t Though the dispensary law has been e declared unconstitutional, there seems to be a feeling that the dispensary in e some way will be onened again soon. & What foundation there is for such a i feeling we do not know, but we do a know that it exists. We publish else I where full proceedings of the prohibi 3 tion convention. They propose to pro I pound questions to the candidates,.but I what will that amount to? We will - see what will be done towards putting r a stop to blind tigers. One section of I the platform seems to have the gap s down for the nomination of a State - ticket even yet, but it is not at all probable that a ticket will be put in 2 the field. There is entirely too much I Tillmanism and dispensary among the prohibitioniss to believe that they would care to put up anything in oppo - sition. The editor of The Herald and News was present at the prohibition conven tion and heard the discussions and our I conclusion is that prohibition will be a t very small factor in the coming prima f ries. We had thought at'one time that - the prohibitionists were in earnest and meant business, but we have now con -cluded that prohibition is only second 1ary. r The Herald and News publishes on. -the fourth page the New York Sun's I adeount of Governor Tillman's speech 1on "temperance" at Staten Island. The r Governor -says The Times made the -most honest and accurate report of -what he said. Be that as it may, the New York Recorder made the most ridiculous and nonsensical report of the - speech. It represents the Governor as -using the dialect of the cornfield darkey, a such as "Dar! Dar! I tole you I'se got -'im," "Dis yah passport," "Dat s agreat - has," and "Dis yo's farmer Tillman, t Governor of South Carolina." Such mis 'representation is an insult not only to r Governor Tillman but to the Southern a people. Everybody who-bas ever heard the Governor knows that he uses just as good English in his speeches as the f New York Recorder reporter, 'whose attempt at fun is ridiculous in the ex treme. tNOT REEEALED. t The ten per cent. tax on State banks Swas not repealed by the vote in the a House last Wednesday. Some Demo f erats in Congress seem to be bigger - than the party. .The Party says: "Repeal." IThe M. C. says: "No Repeal." SAnd what are we to do about it? Keep on losing our golden opportunities and run against the snag of defeat, in the - next election? It looks that way. I Section 8 of the Democratic platform on which President Cleveland and a large majority of the House of Repre sentatives were nominated anad elected -reads as follows: , "We recommend that the prohibi - tive 10Oper cent. tax on State bank issue be repealed." SThat plank of the platform is plain and simple. But look further. The i Democrats in Congress held a caucus rin April last, at which they took the ifollowing action, without a dissenting . vote:, e Resolved, That it is the sense of this caucus that the prohibitory tax of 10 per cent. on bank issues be repealed. IResolved, That when the bill known as the Brawley and Spencer bill, which the Committee on Banking and Cur rency has ordered reported to the House, is called up for action, an -amendment be offered repealing the prohibitory tax on State banks; that ample time be afforded for discussion, and if necessary to secure thisthe Com mittee on Rules be -requested to take proper action. -This is all very plain also. What is the resuelt? Seventy-five Democrats deliberately s.tep off the platform and defeat the measure. We believe in sticking to principles. To the credit of the South Carolina delegation be it said, they voted solidly for repeal. Pennoyer, of Oregon, will now retire from business as a crank. The Repub licans have carried Oregon in the June -election. Hoke Smith, Secretary of e the In terior, is now an LL.D., by the grace of the University at Chapel Hill, NC. . Ex-Speaker Reed, heretofore opposed to the free coinage of silver, is develop ing liberal views on the question. Ex -Senator Blair, another New England Congressman, is also in favor of free coinage of silver. These are days when the chief politicians don't see'm to know where they "are at." SThe Supreme Court haspopad hearing the Registration casesunti! the The Excellent Equipment and Work of South Carolina College. Mr. Editor. It was my good fortune to visit last week the South Carolina College and to have the opportunity to inform myself by personal in spection of its most excellent equipment, and of the great advantages it offers to young men and women desiring an education. I had thought that the institution had the appliances and appa ratus necessary for thorough work, but my ex pectations were more than realized. In all the class rooms are found maps, charts, and such other appliances as are needful and helpful in illustrating and impressing a lesson. Physical training goes hand in hand with men tal and moral training. and to attain this end there is a completely equipped gymnasium in charge of a thoroughly competent instructor. We witnessed the performance of the class in physical culture and were much pleased with the evidences of thorough training. The chemical department is thoroughly organ ized under a most efficient head, and is said by those competent tojudge to be equal to Heidelberg or any European university. From the making of the simplest experiment to the assaying of ores and soils, everything is at hand. In the department of physics everything neces sary to illustrate natural phenomena is at hand. In the class room of Prof. Davis we saw some thing which especially pleased us, and which set us to thinking. It is a home-made stereopticon. By means of a mirror, two lenses and a slide prop erly arranged. Be is able to project a picture upon a sheet some forty feet distant, and in this way most beautifully and impressively illustrate his torical events; bringing, as it were, the historic personages and places immediately before the eyes ofthe pupils. Cannot such an apparatus be in every common school house in the country? It is cheap and most efficient. I hope every teacher from Newberry County who attends the summer school at the South Carolina College, and I hope all will attend after attending their own institute, will request Prof. Davis to exhibit this apparatus. The department of tmineralogy, geology and biology is fully equipped with all that is needful for thorough training along this line. We had been under the impression that the South Carolina College is- an expensive instith tion. Such is not the case. Good board can be obtained at the Steward's Hall for $8 per month. All necessdry expenses need not exceed $i io per annum. The water, obtained from a well far removed from contaminating sources, is clear, cold and pure. This is an important matter, and the excel lent health enjoyed by the students is in a great measure due to it. The faculty is composed of gentlemen who are at the top in their respective branches. They are -able, enthusiastic, sympathetic. What more can be desired? With all of these advantages of personnel, equipment, location and cheapness, why is it that our'youths do not go to the South Carolina Col lege? Simply because they are ignorant of the ex oellent opportunities within their reach. This grand old institution is historic and de serves patronage. The proud rank which South Carolina has taken among her sister States was made possible by the South Carolina College and has been achieved by her alumni. She has a proud record. It is said that out of the college bred men of the United States who have attained to positions of honor, trust and eminence, twenty per cent. has been furnished by the South Carolina College. Let not this proud xecord be lowered. Let not this historic instizution die for lack of material upon which to exercise its beneficent influence. Respectfully, THos. W. KErrr. The Solution of the Liquor Question. As the whole country appears to be at sea in regard to the liquor traffc, and so much is being said about jicense, dispensaries, pro hibition and free liquor, I beg to submit a plan by which, I think, will satisfy a very large rsjority. of the people. allowing ail who wish to drink to do s, and those who do not need not be taxed to purchase whis key to supply the dispensary, doing away with the saloons, dispensaries, and the ac cursed system of esp-oUage on persons and private homes. If this can be done, which I am satisfied it will under my blan, all would be satisfied and happy, and consequently a blessina bestowed upon mankind. Let a license tax of one two or five dollars be placed upon all who wish. to drink, for the privilege of drinking daring the year, the amount so realized to go to the supplement of the school fund. The government could furnish cheap badges to be worn upon the lapel of the coat, or vest, and let a heavy penalty be put upon every one who drinks. or offers drinks to others without a display of the regulation badge. At the annual assessment of property let the question be asked, "Do you drink?" be answered "Yes" or "No," as the case may be, and the Auditor, if the answer is "Yes." pro ceed to hang on the badge. It could be got ten up in artistic style, such as the "palmetto tree" with the 'chemically pure" Inscription upon it, and this would look "nobby" upon the coats and vests of the young swells, and even the older men. Then look at the reve nue and the inexpensive system of Its collec tIon. A member of the recent temperance mass meeting made the assertion that there were no more than two hundred whIte pro hibitionists in the county, and probably an equal number, or less, of blacks, and, say there are about four thousand or more of voters and drinkers in the county, see what an Income this would ensure to the sehool fund or tax lists. Then, as there would be no expense attached to the sale of liquors, it would be cheap, drinks at five cents or one dollar per gallon. all olasses, the - poorest as well as the richer, could afford to drink. Only a few days' drinking, or perhaps one good drink alone would py for the Ileense in the saving In price. Ten, as all would be allowed to sell, merchants could keep the article as a kind of "side line" for their cus tomers, and te enticing paraphernalia of the saloons would be dote sway with. Then the fun the prohlbitionista cQuld have In watch int those without a badge, and as It would, by law, be made a felony or assault te ask a man to drink without his regalia in sight, it would act as an Incentive to all who enjoy the exhilirating influence of a drink and an other p aying for it to have his badge displayed In bold relief. Tue field would be smaller, and consequently the evaders of the law cou:d be more easily detected, and as every taxpayer would be interested In seeing his neighbor aying his proportionate share of taxes, all he honest drinkers would become detectives and Informers. Then again, the mDost of men would be ashamed to not own' a badge for fear he would.be accused of pernuriousness or tax d$Iud sa a word here asi to liquor drink Ing in ge.nera. Few men drink to get drunk. This is only an after part of the first drink er two. And I often wonder why some take so much intel-eat in the well-being of his fellow man in this one respect alone.' The great advocates of temperance often forget the salvation of the soul, or the personal ad vancement of his friends in his zeal and anx iety about personal habits. He i~ never over zealous to attach his name to b, ank note, or give him a worldly or heavenly lift in the great struggle for life. He may have friends around him, widows and orhans crying for the base necessity of life wthout~ giving them a thought, while he Is spending all his time, bending all his exertions, weep ing, wailing and worrying over the curse of dram drinking when want and destItution are staring the poor and helpless in the face, and where words ofecheer anda helpingband could do so much. good to alleviate their wants. And in must cases these enthusiastic prohibitionists are men who never did drink, don't love it, and could not, for some una-. voidab:e circ~umstance-s, drink if they would, and place all the Ill" that flesh is heir to: at' the door of liquor drinking- Th.ere are many other sins equally as ruinous and destructive, among the few I might mention: laziness, want of thrift, hypocrisy In church matters, lying, cheating aud stealing. &c , which we hear but little from the.prohbitionists. If they would conce-ntrate their energies, time an d puise to help the worldly sufferers in connection wtth their temperance crusade, would not their acts look lees seliseh? What credit does the temperate man deserve who* Is lemnperate from necessity and not choice ? Some of the most ardent tetotalers in this* country have been drankards all their life, whose finance now Is too much exhausted, or the doctors have given them a frIght and forced them to leave off However, a great many are truly temperance advocates from pure love of their fellow man. But why give all their energies to suppress this vice in ex cosion to all others ? Now in conclusion, Mr. Editor, if any one can formulate a better, a more economical, satisty2ng pla.n let him rise and explaln.

C., June 10.-Tb entrance of Secretary of State Tinds into the gubernatorial contest ha turned topsyturvy the calculations an predictions of all oug political seers. I will be remembered that early in th spring Mr. Tindal was generally spoke of as a candidate and that be attende several meetings and delivered speeeh of a mild and inoffensive characte compared to the somewhat partisan ones of young Mr. Gary Evans. Later on Mr. Tindal published a lei ter in which he gave outtheimpressio that he would not be a candidate, an for two months urged peace and unit and a mutual forgiveness of sins be tween the political factions. His uttet ances were regarded as remarkabl; liberal, and assuaging to the existiu! strife' and bitterness between Soutl Carolinians, considering that the; emanated from a man who bad beel originally and persistently identifie with the Tillman agitation. Suddenl; two weeks ago Mr. Tindal's name af peared in the way of a suggestion in numberof Reform county weeklies, ani the Manning Times, a leading Reforn paper of the Eastern part of the State published in Clarendon, Mr. Tindal etunty, printed a strong editorial urgin Mr. Tindal to take the field, It almost seemed that there had beei a precoscerted arrangement amon Tillmanite papers of a less violent tei dency to boost him and the belief i that be will command the support c peace-loving Tillmanites throughou the State as well as attract encourage ment from many Conservatives. Mr. Tindal is a scholarly man with European education, save in his man ners, and a good speaker. It is claime by many persons, however, that he i imbued with advanced socialistic nc tions and the probability is that he wil prove an intense advocite of the dip pensary scheme and other of the Till man ideas regarded by the opposinj faction as most radical. Notwithstanding Mr. Tindal's entry present indications are that John Gar: Evans still hasagood lead and Ellerhe chances will be more impaired by Tin dal's candidacy than his. Evans ha had nothing to say since the Suprem Court nullified the dispensary. Th opinion still prevails to some exten that the dispensaries will be re-opene4 the moment the composition of th Supreme Cour6 is changed by Justice elect Gary taking his seat in July, t which the fact that coduty dispenser are merely retired on half pay, as i were, lends color, and if this surmis should prove true it will have the effec of a tremendous boost for Evans, whc after Tillman, is the recognized dispen sary exponent.

WASHINGTON, June 6-Byavoteof e 172 to 102 the House of Rerpresenta tives to-day voted not to repeal the law imposing a tax of 3t per cent. r upon the issues of State banks and t other associations. Then it decided, e without the formality of a vote or even a division, to kill the Brawley bill, to a which the other proposition was an ameedment. This bill proposed to suspend the operations of the law as to s the certificates and other evidences of money issued by Clearing Houses and other associatious during the currency panic of 1893. Th is latter action was d somewhat unexpected, because in the cause of the ten day's debate just closed th-re bad been no objection expressed to that proposition. The vote on the 7 repeal of the 10 'per cent. tax law, it is said, did not represent the full extent 3 of the opposition to that measure. All of the voters in favor of the Cox amendment to repeal the 10 per cent. tax outright were cast by 102 Demo crats.
