('olumbia, Maarch 8.--The municipal
pr"imitry, which was held here on Tues
day, for the prlpose of n,ominating
Democratie candidates for Mayor and
Aldermen of the city, passed off very
(uietly. Of course, thu plrimary is
really the election, for there will be no
opposition to the candidates, but the
form of a general election has to be
gone throi ih. All the interest centres
in the primary and there is where the
fight is to be made. The'hre were four
candidates for MIayor, the present In
cumbent, Col. T. J. Lipscomb, ex-Mayor
W. MIc3. Sloan, W. 11. (ibbes, Jr., and
F'. S. I.rle. Neither one received ia
majority of the votes (ast and it will be
necessary to have a second race, which
will be matde by 1ir. I:arle and Mir Sloan,
they having received the highest num
ber of votes, and Nilr. Sloan leading by
nearly two hundred. In nearly every
inStance a full aldermatnie board was
chosen and a second race is not, neces
sary. The second primary will be held
next Tuesday.
1 find tie following in t,he Abbeville
Press and Banner:
Iirother Aull, of The Newberry IIer
aid and News, without provocation, as
far as we know, gives Abbeville a dig
for seeking a !fiee, but pays us at high
compliment by saying that, many Ab
beville men have gotten ofllee. it Is
honorable in all inen to aspire to posi
tions of honor. And for a hundred
years Abbeville itas been producing
mnei Who have been appreciated by tihe
People of the State. W e are very proud
of our mnen. Very few cou ttics have
produced as many inen who have been
rewarded by public honors.
Newberry is not without her distin
gi hed mnu, andt Newvberry has noth
ing of whic she ean be so jnttiy proud
Its of her good metn, whio have ben held
in higlh esteem by the people of the
State.
Not so very long ago Abbeville gave
t.hte editor of The Lierald an! News a
hearty weleome to iter hearts atd
homes. And it is a little strange that
he should now seek tO trike the people
ot a matter of which they are o troutd,
namueiy: The exrceient 'tof her citizens.

been my privilege and my pleasutre on
more thant one occasion to show my in
terest in Abbeville, by giving my vote
and my hearty endor'setment to sorte of
her sons whIo were seeking political
honors. I hope I may have that pr'ivt

Wilson, you do mue injustice whten .yout
intimate that I am ungrateful for th e
kindness shown mec in the past, and 1
do not think anything I saild could be
construed in. any such way. But I ram
not quarreling with the Pressand Han

gave me when, as a stranger, I went

I do not care just now to discuss the
question of the success or the failure of
Newberry people who have sought po
litical preferment, because that ques
tion Is not germane to the subject. I
shall always be found st.anding b, my
friends and outr own people when I
think they are right.

The board of directors of the peni
tentiary are making arrangements for
the building of the juvenile reformatory
as provided by an Act of the Legisla
tutre. It is proposed to build it en the
Lexington farm just about six miles
from Columbia. It is a needed reform
and I am glad the experiment is to be
tried. It is not the only purpose of
punishment for crime to punish. There
should be an effort tnade to reform the
youths who have gone astray and send
them back from the prisons better citi
zens than when they were sent there.
This will be the purpose ofthe juvel2de
~risooi The. young criminals will be'
ta from the older ones.
" to nporane sobriety and total
abstinence are good things, how can
we have too much of thorn? Does The
Herald and News beliove that the )is
pensary is promoting sobriety and hon
esty in this State? I)oes the constant
increase in the sale of liquor by the
State tend to improve the morals of the
people? Is the )Ispensary law itself
enforecd? Are blind tigers unknown
in Newberry?"
The above questions are propounded
by the Greenville Mountaineer, brought
forth by an observation in one of my
recent letters, that prohibition by
statutory enactment would be imprac
ticable and result in failure. I have al
ways held, and still hold, that temper.
anco and sobriety are good things, but
it does not necessarily follow that you
can secure them by passing laws pro
hibiting the sale of liquor. On the
contrary, I do not believe that you can
secure them in that way or that you
will promote In the least the cause of
temperance and sobriety by prohIbit,ory
legislation. As I understand the pro
hibionists they do not pretend to
claim or hold that the manufacture
and sale of liquor is in itself wrong, but
the evil conies in the excessive or in
temperate use of it. They undertako
to correct the evil by prohibiting it
rather than in an effort to make men
strong to resist the temptat,ion to its
excessive use. You can't make men
good or holy by removing tempt,ation
from theIr paths. That is not the
Scripture doctrine. Now, as to the
questions of the Mountaineer. I (10
believe that, the )iapensary has pro
moted the cause of sobriety. Now, we
have only one place in Newberry Coun
ty where liquor is legally sold, and at
this place it is not sold after (lark, nor
is it sold by the drink, and when you
get It you have to put (own the cash.
13efore the )ispensary law cane we
had eight barrooms in the town of New
berry, regularly and legally authorized
to seli liquor and you could get it from
day:ight unt,il the late hours of the
night, and you could buy it in any
<quantity from a ten cent drink up.
You could take your friend in and ''set
'emt up,'' and this social drinking led
more1'o people into the drinkc habit than
any other feature. Thet, too, you could
run an account and many a man bought
whiskey when he could get it on credit,
who never think. of it now, and when
the fall .me he had a big whiskey ae
count to :ett1e. There is none of that
row. lo:d say that the dispensary
ha dore &ood aong this l:ne. The
-in 'ees that the eight ba.-roon:s
aoi 10 the town amo:nted to ab\ut as
as the pro!its the past year to the
ow r.ar. county from the Dispensary.
U course :he men who oeonucted the
barro:us made money or they would
not have remained in the business. As
to honesty I don't think any system
has anythintg to do with that, but I be
lieve prohibition would do less towards
promoting it t'han the 1)ispensary.
Whiskey in any way you handle it will
not do mu'ch to improve the morals,
but the Dispensrrv will do more in that
lirection than prohibition for tinder
prohibition "blind tigers" would flour
ish and there would be illicit sale
throughout the State and you would
have no machinery with which to stop
it. It is trute that the D)ispensary law
is not rigidly and completely enforced
but I would like for the Mlountaineer
to tell mue how a prohibition law would
be enfor'ced when the D)ispensary' is not
and th ir:ty or forty men are kept con
stantly at work watching for violators.
U nder prohibition you would have no
prIovision by which to 01mploy3 anyotne
to enforce it unless you levied an extra
tax for the purpose. I believe that
much of the prejudice that has hereto
fore existe-d against the D)ispensarmy is
gone tind that it is being constantly bet
ter enforced. As to "blind tigers" in
Ne'iberry if there are any* they are
very searce and no more than existed
under the old license system. There
tre sever'al things in regard to the Dis
pensam'y law that I (10 not aipprove;
never have appr'oved aned nev'er will,
but the whiskey question is a very puz
zlinig one and I am willing to accept
what I consider the lesser ev".
"We would like to see newspaper at'
gument in this State rise above the

made by the Yorkville Enquirer. It
would be a glad day for South Cato
lina when not only newspaper argu
ment but all other argument could rise
above epitbet and pe-rsonal abuse of
your anrtagouis'. Any vulgar black
guard can abuse you a:nd this license in
many cases is taken as true statement
and as argument. Wh,en men and
newspapers happen to differ on any'
question there i8 no sensc in personal
attacks and abuse for there can be
difference of opinion with bonesty and
sincerity and pure motives and patriot

Well, March has come and very lit
tie work has been done on the farms.
A number of our people have been
hauling corn home from town that were
never known to buy corn before on ae
count of the short, crop raised last year
and it has been very seldom that many
of our farmers ever buy corn, and we do
hope that, they will plant enough this
year and not try and raise so much
cheap cotton.
The Monticello and Saluda school
boys crossed bats at Monticello on last
Saturday and had an old time game of
"chimney or base ball."
Well, Chips, Josh Triunp has retirn
ed, and has become "one of the boys"
again, and we were real glad to hear
from him, but sorry that he wias sutfler
ing with a boil and mumps, but we hope
he will soon be himself again, and that
he will let us hear from him often. It.
seems that a little printer's ink had the
desired effect on him.
If a person had left this section before
the war and not returned until now, he
would not recognize it as the same see
tion of counti y. People then lived far
apart and very few on the roads, then
nearly the whole country was a forest
of pine and oaks; today that has given
away under the heavy blow of the axe
man, and cotton, corn and other crops
have been planted thereon for years
and today only patches of oaks and
pines ire standing, all the thickets
have been cut down; then there were
only a few families living on the Holley
Ferry road, now you can't halloo along
that road unless from a half to a dozen
families hear your voice. There is not
but one man, according to my knowl
edge, living at the same place he was
living on this road when the war began
that is theru yet, and that, is Henry M.
Dominick. Today cotton is the staple ar
tiele, then a diversitied farm of wheat.
oats, corn, peas. etc. Then they were
large land owners. now wae have a numa
ber of prosperous small land owners
and farmers: then they ma,ie what they
needed at home and lived at the same
place. Today they principally raiz-c
eotzon and use the town for the ferti
li.ers. eribs and smoke houses.
We read what the editor had to sav
about staving on the farm: also, the
elipping taken from another journal,
and it was certainly true and had the
right ring.
WW-hat our country needs is small en

to manufacture our raw material at

Calk's Ferry road is nearly impassable

covered after years of
scientific research by
- Dr. Kilmer. the emi
nent kidney and blad
der specialist, and is
wonderfully successful in promptly curing
lame back, kidney, bladder, uric acid trou
bles and Bright's Disease, which is the worst
form of kidney trouble.
Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is not rec
ommended for everything but if you have kid
ney, liver or bladder trouble it will be found
just the remcdy you need. It has besn tested
in so many ways, in hospital work, in private
practice, among the helpless too poor to pur
chase relief and has proved so successful in
every case that a special arrangement has
been made by which all readers of this paper
who have not already tried it, may have a
sample bottle sent free by mail, also a book
telling more about Swamp-Root and how to
