“THE COMBAT DEEPENS.”
JUSTICE POPE ASKED TO
THE DISPENSARY.
CLObE
T , . tion apply to J. D. Trevathan.
Justice Pope has consent-^ Flore nce f o. J. 8. JtpCreight,
The Case Against J. M. James Carried
to the United States Court—A
Keg of Beer Seized.
As the result of Judge Hud
son’s latest decision the Dar
lington dispensary is still hold
ing forth. The anti-dispensary
people have not, however, given
up the fight. The Judge said
in his decision that the remedy
for Justice Pope’s order, where
by the dispensary was opened,
must be obtained from the Su
preme Court or one of the mem
bers thereof. Thifc course the
anti-dispensary people will fol
low
ed to give their attorney^ Mes
srs Nettles & Nettles, a hearing
at Chambers in the Supreme
Court room atCo.u nbiaonMon*
day next. Another effort will
then be made to close the dis
pensary on the grounds that d
stay of proceedings on appeal
does not dissolve an injunction
but only preverses the status
quo, and that an order for a
stay of proceedings cannot be
given for a longer period than
twenty days unless due notice,
is given the other side that the
order will be applied for, which
was apt doneiathfi present case.
The twenty days expire on Mon
day. What will Justice Pope
do? is the question asked now.
Many inquiries have been
made as to what has become of
the case against J. Manigault
James for violation of the dis
pensary law. We are able to
say that CVS. Nettles, Esq.,
went to Charleston last week
and had the case transferred
fiom the State to the Federal
Court. The time for trial will
be set as soon as possible. This
is the test case made by the li
quor men, whose intention it is,
we stated sometime ago, to have
the fight made in the United
States Court.
A ripple of excitement was
caused yesterday by the seizure,
by State Constable Garrison, of
a keg of beer at the Atlantic
Coast Line depot. At least it is
supposed that the keg contains
beer, as it is one generally used
for such purpose and has the
United States internal revenue
stamp upon it. It is now in the
Sheriff’s office and as it has not
yet been opened it is not
known positively what it con
tains. The keg was shipped
from Wilmington to J. Mani
gault James by the Portner
Brewing Company.
At the hour that we went to
press yesterday no arrests had
been made, save that of the beer
keg; no warrant had been serv
ed upon Mr. Pegues, the agent
of the railroad, nor anyone else.
Mr. Pegues, when questioned
by The News reporter in regard
to the matter said: “We notified
our headquarters at Wilming
ton immediately after the seiz
ure. No warrant was served.
I asked Constable Garrison for
papers, but he declined to serve
any. He displayed his badge
and claimed that to be sufficient
authority and rolled the keg out
and put it in the deputy sheriff’s
buggy.”
What will be the outcome of
this ? If the keg contains beer
the Atlantic Coast Line has vi
olated the law in bringing it in
to the State.

On Sunday afternoon a color
ed man, named Tom Randall,
was drowned in Black Creek.
He had been to Pleasant Grove
Church and was returning
home. On reaching the creek,
at a point near where Mr. John
Siskron lives, he attempted to
cross on a log. Losing bis bal
ance he fell in the water and,
not being able to swim, was

THE TROUBLE AT CLEMSON.
It W«c Greatly Exaggeiated by the
New-paper Reports.
Recently articles appeared in
several papery alleging that se
rious trouble had arisen at Clem-
son College. President Craig
head published a letter showing
that the reports of the trouble
had been greatly exaggerated.
There was some dissatisfaction
on account of the laundry and
the fare, but this was entirely
due to, and was to be expected
from, the fact that the college
had just started. The cause of
the dissatisfaction was soon re
medied and the boys are now
all well pleased. President
Craigheatfs letter was admir
able and had we the space we
would gladly publish it in full.
He makes it clear that every
thing will be done for the com
fort of the students, but for one
to remain at the college he must
conform to the rules and must
study.
The following resolutions in
regard to the affair were adopt
ed by the students:
“Whereas, certain false re
ports calculated to produce
wrong impressions concerning
the management of our College
have been circulated by the
Greenville Keivs of July 22,
inst.; and, whereas, we consider
it of the gravest importance
that these reports be denied;
therefore be it
“Resolved, 1st, That we, the
sophomore class of Clemson
College, do hereby emphatically
deny that there has been or is
any ‘trouble Timong Clemson
students, caused by the fare or
mess arrangements.’
“2d. That we deny further
that there has been or is any
‘mutiny,’ ‘strike or protest or
concerted movement’ what
ever.
“3d. That we, considering the
magnitude of the undertaking,
this being the lirgest boarding
college m the South, express
ourselves as -well pleased with
the management of the s^me.,
‘4th. That a copj of the reso
lutions be furnished the Green
ville News for publication, hop
ing that all other papers inter
ested in the welfare of Clemson
College will publish them.

These resolutions were unani
mously endorsed by the entire

Free Coinage of Terrapins.
[Atlanta Journal.]
Editor Complaint Bureau:
I have read so much about the
silver and gold currency busi
ness that hget sick whenever I
pick up a newspaper.
Now, while this great finan-
c i a 1 question is stirring the
country, I hope and pray that
South Georgia’s circulating me
dium, the terrapin, will not be
forgotten.
Terrapins are used in South
Georgia for money. If you give
a big torrapin for a hat, you
will get one, two .or three small
terrapins in change.
South Georgia b a s a right
and will rise up and demand a
free coinage of terrapins. If
this is not done, the great terra
pin farms will shut down and
one section of the country wil
be ruined.
Let Wall street cry for gold
let the west cry for silver; let
the people’s party cry for green
backs, out give South Georgia
her terrapins. Justicia.
