Frank Parrott is the author- iui agent of The Herald. He will toliott Hibeniftiati* and advertise- meats and receipt for money. South Cwolltm enjoys the unen Viable illititielioii of being the first State to oltet h jitetniniu for the establishment of tlUtilleflea. The silloou id inperior to the tils- pensary iii tliftt it make* no claim to being utiylhlng. else thau..\vbnt it really is, while the tlispensnry;atlus hypocrisy to its other evils. As the Dispensary law forbids the drinktng qf whiskey where it is sold, it would be a good idea for some pi- Dus and moral oitiseu to fit np u drinking parior* where the habittml driukan could, by the paying of a Ituall monthly fee, Inlve a comfortu- Vil place to drink. {& I' ‘ uiJMi H ■ i III Rome of oiii 1 reform contetiipom* itre trying to be sarcaetio ou the mb. jsot of Mr. 0 nmhti seeking u con* idlsbip, and profess to believe that it will be a great help to their cause for him to remain in the State. This kind of talk reminds us very much of that cunning rascal, Brer llabbit, when he plead very bard to be thrown into the pot of hot water *hd to be saved from the brier patch. If tha great Sbakapaara were alive, hi would have to change, or at least modify, his oft quoted expression that there is nothing in a name. We call the saloon a haunt of vice and .its keeper an enemy to society and morality, but the dispensary, made mewl Md respectable by the grace the Booth Carolina legislature, is I stepping itoui to prohibition, and Its manager a good cltiMn and con- Ms tent Christian. There is a rehiote possibility that this htit Surviving soldier of the late war may live long endugh to attend the opening of the following build. ing« Charleston's Battery Hotel, the Winter Hotelin Columbia and the Mills on the Cana! in the same place and last of alt the two hotels that our Snnitor friends are now building. The principal materials used in the OOfiltruetion of all these buildings being talk and paper, it ie hoped that they will belnittred against eyolonsi. AitkelSEeVReu^aud Ban. BH was tbs first paper in tbs Bute to iUggelt-that the. OoVlTDor call OUt the troops to enforce the dispensary law, we.Uke the liberty of saying that it ie about time for field Mar jibat Wilson to sharpen his qword, brtilh up hie uniform and put his fiery steed In training for the cam pnign. One shout from the lungs of . this redoubtable war chief would make the bravest barkeeper tremble itthilboote. As proteslants we never cease to wonder at the credulity of the oath olio* for believing when it nomes to mature of faith and morals, in the infallibility of the Pope, and then with human inconsistency, accept on a purely moral question, the dispen sary law, the infallibility of the BoUth Carolina legislature. This is just identically the position of those who denounce the liqoor traffic when car raid on by priraW individuals but think it a perfectly tyitimate buci sms for the Stale. Senator Butler will not add either to his reputation or popularity by supporting such a man as B. F. Perry for United States Marshal, and if he persisU in pressing him for the position to which he aspires, the 4emUr will lose a good deal of the eopport fas the nest senatorial elec tfem that ‘•Mterwiae would be given him. Uar senator can find plenty of good men In Stther faction from whloh to seleot fssr this position, snd It Is Jurjl to understand why hi p We would suggest to our contem porary, the Darlington Herald, that it “put on more ink.” Its news and editorial departments contain too much interesting matter for the pressman’s neglect to keep it “out of sight.”—Columbia Journal. We return thanks for the above, and will say in reply that The IIkkai.I) is fortunate in having an average pressman, but is the unfor tunate possessor of a press that seems endowed with almost human perver sity when it comes to refusing to work when its services are in demand. We have never thought it possible that there could tie anything in witch craft, but the mysterious perform ances of this press have almost con vinced us that there may be some thing in it after ail. For obstinacy and contrariness it could give points to those perverse and much abused animals, the mule and hog. General Hampton. The people for fourteen years had placed a n d maintained General llaispton in the highest, most in fluential and remunerative positions in their gift, namely, Governor and United States Senator- in fact, he enjoyed these honors and privilege* so long that he seemed to think t he people belonged to him. When 1 lampion so far forgot his trust us to praise mi Independent, a sense of self •preservation demanded on their part bis retirement ns their repre sentative. This is all there is about i.t.—Greenville Democrat. Were It not for the impression they might make abroad, article like the above would be scarcely worthy of attention, as every intelligent per son in South Carolina knows that what Mr. Perry, editor of the Demo crat says in regard to Hampton is utterly false, and could only have emanated from one whose dense stu pidity is only surpassed by hig polit ical malignity. Wade Hampton has never sought an office in his life, mid while it ii tNo that tha tjtato has given him the highest offices in her glftj these und everything else that could be be stowed upon him would never cancel the great debt of obligation that every true citinea of South Carolina feels due to the man who has served them with inch fidelity and honor. Mr. Perry belongs to a class of men who never attacks anyone save those who are dead or those who ore too far above them to take any notice of their puny and silly charges. To men of Mr. Perry's calibre, Wade Hampton can feel the same indifference that the king of beasts ihowi for the pack of sneaking, cowardly jackals that snap and snarl at his heels. Skin Cancer Cared. Sequin, Texas, Jan. 14, ’93. Messrs. Lippman Bros., Savannah, Ga. Gentlemen:—I have tried your P. P.

The Oconw Kewe, iu speaking of the numerous newspaper controver sies now going on in tho state, says “all that il needed to complete the otrouS is for somebody to pitch into the Abbeville Medium and the Sum ter Freeman on the subject of woman suffrage and suggests that Wallace, Grant, Ball or the editor of the Hmi.u ought to do the job. Our genial friend Brother Wallace duel lues on the ground that the editors of the two papers in qu&tion are both Bph- raims, joined to their idols.” What Mr. Wallace says is all very true but there is a very great differ' euce in these erratic and impracti cable editors, for while fighting for the same thing they are actuated by very different motives. The editor of the Medium always tries to be On the popular side, and likes to pose before tbe public as ail advocate of anything that will attract attention to himself. Just let him be convinced that the large majority of tho people of the state especially the ladies, are opposed to such an in novation and he will drop the sub ject Immediately. The editor of the Freeman, on the contrary seems to think, and he acts up to his thinking, that his mission on the Earth is to advocate unpopular and visionary ideas, and the greater the opposition tbe harder he fights. The very bilbutP, however, that a measure begins to attract the attention of the public and there is some evidence of its becoming popular Col. Durgin Will, if be does hottnfn against it, fly off in some oth - direc tion and throw himself heart and soul into the advocacy of some other visionary scheme. Tbe HmtD is ever ready to die cum female intirageor any other proposed measure, but of course does not indulge iu the wild dream of thinking it can conviuoe the Medium or Freeman.
