SAYS PROHIBITION
IS BOUND TO COME.
EX-ATTORNEY GENERAL BELLINGER
SAYS A GENERAL STATE LAW <
WILL BE PASSED.
Columbia, August 23.?The,
Hon G Duncan Bellinger, formerly
attorney general of Sooth Carolina,
who is now practicing law in Columbia,
has recently made several
business trips to Washington and ,
Baltimore, and in conversation ou fl
his return he stated that there is a
great deal of significai.ce being everywhere
attached to the growth of the ^
prohibition sentiment in this ooun
try, especially in the South. Mr ^
Bellinger has never advocated State t
knf V?n ia a f ^mA/tra f
pivuiuibiuiij uuu uc to a i/viuuv?av
and believes in the rule of the ma-f y
jority, and he is convinced that the v
people of South Carolina will soon j,
demand the passage of a prohibition g
law, just has been done in Georgia c
and will be done in North Carolina, d
"I believe," said Mr Bellinger, s
"that the wisest thing for the Pro- e
hibitionists to do would be to enact \t
a law giving the whole State pro- ?
hibition and permitting those coun- 0
ties which desire to have whiskey ?
sold therein to vote it in instead of u
requiring, as now, the counties which
want prohibition to vote whiskey q
out. Under the present arrange- ?
ment the whole burden is on those g
who oppose the sale ot wnisEey ana g
this sheald not be. The present ||
lav makes it necessary for those op- f,
posing the sale of whiskey to get up b
the petitions for the election and to e
wage the campaign for prohibition; g
then after the election if there is a e
contest, the prohibitionists are com- d
pelled to put up funds to fight it. p
Those who are interested, either g
financially or otherwise, in the sale a
of whiskey will naturally be prepared *
to spend money to retain this privi- ?
lege, but it is hard to compel the c
sincere prohibitionists to go down (
iuto their pockets and put up the t
money for such fight. ^
r
"My firm and myself personally *
have represented the dispensary
faction in many of the contests which
have been brought to test the legal,
ity under the Brice law and the
Carey Cothran law, and the suggestion
I am making will not only not
bring me an.y money, but if put into
effect would cost me heavily, but I
am convinced that it is the best plan
to insure the success of prohibition
in this State. While I was always
a dispensary man as long as I was in
politics, my sympathies throughout
life have been with those forces
making for temperance, law and
order, and I admire the sincere prohibitionist
"There is no use denying the force
of the sentiment which is growing
in favor of prohibition in this and
other Southern States, and if the
prohibitionists are wise they will
substitute for the present unsatisfactory
law a State prohibition law,
which will cover the Commonwealth
like a blanket, putting on those who
want whiskey sold in any county the
onus of securing an election and of
instituting the dispensary. The
prohibitionists have the power to do
this if they choose, and it is to their
advantage to do so. Personally, I

be glad to see snch a bill
otroduoed at the session of the gen
rail assembly by some sincere prolibitionist,
and it seems to me that
t would meet with the approval of
Governor Ausel, whose inclination
owards prohibition is well known." I
Iu speaking of the contests, which |
lis firm has conducted to test the
arious electioua on the dispensary
n the last few years, Mr Bellinger
aid be knew that he had been critiised,
but that he considered he had
one his State a service if he has asisted
iu instructing the people how
lections must t>e conducted to be
iwfully condncted. "I have alrays
stood for the enforcement and
bservance of the law," said Mr
iellinger, "uo matter what the law
i, and shall always do so."
Mr Bellinger has an intimate #cuaintauce

for the guidance of the

rhich he was called on to consider,
lince his retirement from that office
le has beeu engaged in almost every
