The decision of the Supreme Court declaring the dipensary law unconstitutional will meet with more favor even with the Reformers than their leaders would have us believe. The Conservatives did not conceal their dislike for the law, while many, very many, of the Re formers were just as much op posed to it, but feeling that as the dispensary was a creature of their faction they could rot openly express their disapproval of it. Thus it was that to out ward appearances it seemed that all the opposition to the law came from the Conserva tives and that this opposition was not founded upon the un wisdom of the law but upon partisan feeling. But to one who has carefully watched the course of events since the inau guration of the dispensary sys tem, it is clear that beneath the surface there was a decided feel ing against the State bar among many of the staunchest Reform ers. It was an undercurrent, but was none the less strong be cause it did not show itself. The truth is the opposition to the dispensary was one of prin ciple not politics and was not confined to one faction because the law did not please anybody, save, perhaps, the leaders who forced it upon the people. It did not suit those who do not believe in sumptuary laws that put restrictions upon a man’s personal habits; it did not suit a still larger class, to be found in both factions, who condemned the law because it deprived the citizen of so many inherent and dearly-prized rights; it did not suit the prohibitionists who can see no moral distinction between the State selling liquor and the individual selling it and who can see no beneficial results that will accrue to society from the continuance of the liquor traffic with only the change of the bar keeper. The last named class looked at first with favor at the dispen sary. The Legislature fooled them. Prohibition, pure and simple, was demanded, but the law-makers said the time was not ripe for this and undertook to hoodwink the prohibitionists by giving them the dispensary, saying that the new system was a “step towards prohibition.” At first the prohibitionists ac cepted this in good faith, but how quick were the scales re moved from their eyes! As soon as it became evident that reve nue was the chief object of the dispensary, the prohibitionists lost hope. All barriers to the new system of liquor traffic were thrown down by the State authorities and everything was done to encourage the sale and consumption of liquor through the State bars. Territory, here tofore the strongholds of prohi bition, was invaded, for what did the State administration want ? Not a decrease in the drinking of liquor and thereby an increase in morality, but money, more money. The cof fers of the State must be fiilled and, therefore, the more liquor sold the better. The prohibi tionists soon became disgusted with the law, for they saw their fair dream of South Carolina saved from the evils of the li quor traffic vanish into nothing. But to add to the discomfort- ure of the prohibitionists, a worse condition than existed under the old license system now confronts them. If Governor Tillman’s construction of the effect of the decision be correct, the whole country may be flood ed with free liquor. In every city, town, hamlet and cross roads may now be sold without any hindrance all the liquor that the thirsting public may want. Such is the reward the prohibitionists have received for their work in the last cam paign. We have given briefly the reasons why the dispensary law did not suit anybody and have but to mention another motive for great rejoicing at its down fall. By the decision a cause for much of the irritation among our people has been re moved and we can now look with more confidence towards the consummation of our hope, that South Carolinians may again become united and happy. So long as the law existed it stood as a menace to life and liberty. The authority to search private houses and the spy sys tem were bound to cause fric tion. Our people are Anglo- Saxons and no human agency could prevent them from resent ing these invasions of their in born rights. A constabulary, composed of irresponsible per sons, clothed with extraordina ry power and armed with Win chesters, is repugnant to society and cannot be conducive to the preservation of peace. The dis pensary had some good points, but the obnoxious features so far outweighed them that we are thankful that the whole sys tem has been removed. It has caused a lot of trouble and we hope it is forever buried with its bloody past. THE '•KNOCK-OUT.” and J. C. McIntosh’s property and thence by W. 8., Wm. and P. R. McIntosh’s places. Rev. J. F.

Now if it is not a prohibition law and the right to issue licenses does not stand, and there is no other law apply ing to the liquor traffic, it looks to me like free liquor. It looks like anybody and every body can go anywhere in the country, at every crossroads and anywhere else and start up barrooms and sell liquor. All acts applying to the liquor traf fic inconsistent with the dispen sary act have been repealed and there are none on the statute books.” Governor Tillman then made the following important state' ment: “The whole situation as I see it now is that I can only maintain the status quo; shut up shop, close up business, do absolutelj nothing and obey the law. The State is forbidden to sell whiskey. As to who else can or may I can’t and won’t pretend to say. It is confusion worse confounded.” THE COUNTY NEWS.

Miss Eula Jordan, of Lake Swamp, spent a week with Miss Anna Fields of this place. Cotton planting is a thing of the past with most of our farm ers. Good stands of corn are the rule. Quite an enjoyable sociable was given at the residence of Dr. J. B. Mims on the evening of the 13 inst. Rev. C. D.

While here she made many friends, all of whom are verv sorry indeed to part with her. A military company, 158 strong, has been organized at this place. A good many of this company are old Confeder ate veterans. It is probable that it will be divided into two companies. The men say there will be no throwing down arms whenever the Governor calls, nor no stopping to inquire as to the object of the call, as that will be none of their business. NETTLES’S MILL. We had a good rainfall last week. There is little said about poli tics in th's section. The second planting of corn is up and looking well. Messrs H. J. Nettles and 8. W. Byrd have stands of cotton. Mr. Isaac Ousley has cleared eight acres of the Mary Bate man tract. Mr. G. W. McLeod and others are building new dwellings in spite of the hara times. The Messrs McIntosh are hav ing work done upon the main ditch of their plantation. Mr. W. 8. McIntosh says his j wheat was badly injured by the ! cold snap in the last of March. The new road from Bethle- ! hem to Hartiville is still a sub ject of discussion. It is pro- nosed to run the road between Messrs J. T. and J. H. Rogers’s lands and between the latter’s CLYDE Several of our farmers have planted rice. Miss C. E. Larramore, of Mar ion, has a good school in Kelly- town. We had an excellent sermon at New Market on 14th inst from Rev. A. H. Best. We are sorry to learn that Mrs. Sallie King, of the Union section, is very ill. We are having fine weather and our boys are putting in some good farm work. Forest fires are going the rounds. Almost every day we have one to do damage to tim ber and fences. THE REFORMERS’ ADDRESS. How They Defend the Abandonment of the Primary. The State conference of Re formers was held in Columbia at the same time that Darling ton had her recent disturbance and, on account of the pressure of other matters incident to the “riot,” we were compelled to give it but slight notice. At the request of some of the Re formers of this county that we publish the address, even at this late date, as we were unable to do so at the time it was issued, we here give it in full: THB ADDRESS. Four years ago, after years of struggle in the arena of reason, with the forces of wealth and culture and trained leadership combined against us—a combi nation confident, exultant in the pride and prestige of power long enjoyed—the Reformers of the State joined issue squarely be fore the people, and at the bal lot box won their fight by an overwhelming majority. But the struggle did not end there. An active, intelligent and ag gressive minority has kept up the fight with a tenacity that, in a better cause, would com mand the admiration of all men. Every resource known to legis lative and judicial obstruction ists has been laid under tribute to retard the pledges of the Re formers of the State to the peo ple of the State, and to defeat the operation of these pledges even after enacted into law. Notwithstanding this active and skillful opposition, under the most adroit and astute lead ership, we have performed ev ery pledge made to the people in 1890, in so tar as such pledges can bo performed under the or ganic law of the State. We have worked out the reforms we promised the people and more than we promised. With a clear record behind us, we now stand face to face with the fu ture, ready and eager to grapple with new questions and new is sues that shall make for the up building of the material pros perity of the entire people in larger degree and upon broader lines than ever before. Moreover, with full control of every department of the ma chinery of the government, with a constituency unified and solid ified by successful struggle, we are in a position not only to pro ject larger things for the people but we are in a position to per form what we project. Let us not forget, however, that although we nave rectified many of the wrongs of the past and accomplished the reforms demanded in 1890, there are still important issues to be set tled. In carrying out the pledges of the past, questions of the most vital and far-reaching import have been raised—ques tions that go to the very found ation of government by the peo- 1 »le. The issue has been square- y raised between organized capital and the organized peo ple, by whose suffrage aggrega tion of capital became possible. The creature has grown so pow erful and arrogant that it has dared to measure arms with its creator—the State. 8o hot have the Reformers made this fight that corporate monopoly has been driven from its cover and forced to fight in the open field. Its subtle grip upon the people’s throat has been loosened and complete emancipation for the people is only a question of time. It is a proper subject for congratulation that in this mighty struggle, world wide in its scope, South Carolina Re formers stand well out in the front. It only needs now that we be true to our principles, to our country and to our people, and the victory is sure. To insure continued success, a certain amount of organiza tion is necessary. In 1890 the necessary organization was ac complished by a March conven tion . For various and sufficient reasons such a convention was deemed inexpedient this year; but after full discussion in the press, the plan of holding mass meetings to elect a State Reform campaign committee was adopt ed. Meetings were held, com- mitteomen were appointed, and that committee in its assembled wisdom formulated a plan of suggesting Reform candidates for Governor and Lieutenant Governor. This plan, as will be seen in the published pro ceedings, meets all the require ments of a primary for Gover nor and Lieutenant Governor. It meets the reasonable demands of the people to see and hear and question every man who aspires to their suffrage, and looks to the selection of that Reform candidate who gets the most Reform votes. It provides for an open field for all who as pire to public preferment, and it is a safe plan. We commend this plan to the favorable consideration of the Reformers of the State. Study it well; carry out its provisions faithfully and our movement will enter upon an era of broad er and higher usefulness than in the past. Let every Reformer in the State do bis duty and we will pile up a bigger majority for rule by the people than ever be fore in our history. Specimen oases. 8. H.
