The Almiohtv Dollar.
As we predicted, the Weekly
r" Mail's fancied advantage from discing
the "money side" of the distary
question question has turned
to be a boomerang and we are
.ot surprised at the reluctance with
whir>k nnr mntomnnmrj remirs to
the subject. As wa? stated 111 our
reply to the Mail's first article ou
r*.v ."The Money Side" we deprecated
going into that phase of the subject,
but, in jnstice to our side we could
not allow our friend's reckless estimates,
illogical inferences and misleading
statements to pass unchallenged.
The ReJcord's two points remain
uncontroverted, viz:
(1) That the voting out of the
dispensary will not necessitate an increase
of more than one mill in the
s[i. *
' present levy.
(2) That the towns of Kingstree,
Lake City and Scranton, sharing
equally with the country people the
one-half of the dispensary profits
?a ?nrn froacnrtr
lliai gUCS 1I1WJ mc vvuutj iiivwiHtji
amounting to $7,178.59, get the
other half divided among the three
towns. Of this half of the total
revenue,amounting to$7,178.59, the
' country people do not get a cent.
And in this connection we may ask
I out of whose pockets comes the bulk
of the money from which the dispensary
profits accrue, the town people's
or the country people's? This is a
hard question for our astute contemporary,
hut since nothing would do
but to drag the "money side" into
the discussion, let us get at the facts.
The assertiou that the coantry peoi
- -. pie get as much or more of the dispensary
profits than the towns do
is too ridiculous to be worth serious
/
consideration. Our friend admits
that he can see but one side to this
question and that is the weak point
in his argument. An editor who
can see but one side of a question
generally pioves hurtful instead of
helpful to the side he attempts to advocate.
The Mail tells us that the
$12,237.60 derived from the dispensaries
tan be used and *ve shall
still have saud-hills and mud-hotei
in the roads and poor schools for the
children. That is undoubtedly true.
But if the $75,000 or $80,000 that

The murder of Mr Julian Wilson
last Friday night at Cooper postI
-a* f ii. 1 .1. . _i
omce was one 01 T,ne most snocMugly
brutal [crimes in the annals of
Wiiliamsburg county and it is perfectly
natural that there should be
a cry for speedy vengeance upon the
perpetrators of the foul deed. At
the same time we are glad that the
efforts of Solicitor Wilsonand Sheriff
Graham, backed up by the support
of men of cool judgment, were
successful in averting a lynching on.
Saturday night. Such a catastrophe
would have been most unfortunate
iu adding another triumph of uiob
violence to the already long list
chalked up against Williamsburg
county. If the parties arrested be
proved guiltv no power on earth can
save their necks; but if it turns out
that there is not sufficient evidence
to convict them their lynching
would have been a terrible blot on
our county. All honor to our brave
and manly solicitor, John Wilson,
who pleaded with the crowd to let
the law take its course, and to our
worthy and fearless sheriff, whe^

prisoners; and no less credit is due
to the men who stood with them for
law and justice, especially the sons
and other relatives of the murdered
father and kinsmen. The crime
committed is horrible to contemplate,
but it would certainly not help mat
ters to string up the suspected ones
without trial. Give the law a
chance.
Now we know how it was done.
Lieutenant General Clayton has l^t
the cat out of the bag. He admits
that if the people of Florence had
been left alone, "the dispeusaryi
would hare been voted out three to
one." It cau easily be read between
tbe lines of Mr Clayton's letter
that money was used freely.

How Editors Get Rich.
j Newspaperdom.
After a good deal of study
handwork it has. at last <been
figured out why so many country
editors get rich. Here is
| the secret of success: A child
| is born in the neighborhood, the
attending physician gets ?10,
the editor give? the loud-lunged
youngster and the "happy parents"
a send-off and gets ?0. It
is christened; the minister gets
$10, and the editor $00. It
| grows up and marries; the edi!
tor publishes another long-wind
led flowery article and tells a
dozen lies about the ''beautiful
and accomplished bride," the
minister gets $10 and a piece of
cake, and the editor gets $000.
In the course of time it dies,
and the doctor gets from $25 to
$100, the minister perhaps gets
another $15, the undertaker
gets from $50 to $100; the
editor pub) i s h e s a notice
of the death and an obituary
two columns long, iodge and society
resolutions, a lot of poetry
and a free card of thanks, and
gets $0,000. No wonder so many
country editors get rich! J
