WgpygSDAY, MARCH 8,1898.
Th? Faculty Declines to He
oon?der.
Th? faculty of the Sooth Car ol i aa
College are immovable ia their stand
lo regard to the suspension of the yoong
?en who participated in the recent
bca?re escapade? The committee of
estacas who attempted to ietereede for
the boys bed their troubl? for their
pain*, as will be seen from the
reply made by the faculty, pub?
lished below. The faculty held a
lengthy session after tho committee left
them, aad took ample time to render
their decinion, which was banded to
Capt. DeePortes by President Woodrow
is parson yesterday morning. The
reply reads as follows :
"COLOMBIA, S C.. March ?; 1893
?'Messrs. R. S. DesPortes, L F. You
naas, W. A. Mette, F. W. McMas
ter and others.
"Gentlemen : As was promished at
the dose of oar ioterview yesterday, the
faculty of the college gave the most
careful consideration to the views pre?
sea ted by y ou sod to the petition from
the students, of which you were the
bearers. I need hardly repeat that if
toe faculty could have seen their way
olear to take the course recommended
by their friends and neighbors, whom
they hold io the highest esteem, it
weald have delighted them to do so.
Bat it puna ae to say that they could
Bot, and that they " we unable to grant
the students* reque?*.
"With sentiments of the highest re?
spect, ? aa yours very truly,
"JAMBS WOODROW, President.99
Capt. DesPortes was seen later by a
State reporter, bat said that he had no
comment to make except that the com?
mittee bad been actuated solely by a
kindly feeling and sympathy for the
students tn the matter, and had only
to regret that they bad acceompiished no
good.
That the action dees sot meet with
approval k is needless to say. Every
ooo eoustdere, without a desire to
criticise tbe faculty harshly, that they
bave acted rather arbitrarily under ?the
circumstances.
? Tbe students are wot exactly satisfied
with tbe action of toe faculty, bat just
what action they will taie bas oat fees
determined.
They bad a meeting last night, it it
understood with the purpose of with?
drawing from the institution in a body,
bat tbe proceedings of the meeting were
kept very quiet. Several of the stu?
dents were asked about the meeting but
they all refused to talk. It fair to in*
far that BO immediate action was
adviped. From what bas been learned
aU action will be postponed until
.future day -The State, Marah 2.
Democracy on Trial,
There is owe very important thing to
Ibo remembered : tbe Democratic party
ii? BOW oo trial. Ia North Carolina the
pres eat L?gislature is making a record
that may be for thc good of the Siate
?nd fer the benefit of -the party. It
may bave done something to encourage
and confirm public confidence or it may
have so acted as to baodteap the party
lia the seat election. The Messenger
will not BOW undertake to make a
balance sheet, but it witl be made
aad by tbe people and at the ballot-box
ia toe next eleetioo.
If the vieioua Homestead law is to
eoutiaoe; if the preferred creditor8*
business is to go on with its injustice
aad wrongs ; if money is to be warred
upon aad tts value limited to 4? per
cent, which if put into all kinds of busi?
ness it may bring 100 per eeat and oe
barn done ; if knowledge sod teaming
are to be taxed as if they were a crime,
when there is no over-plus of those
precious articles io the State ; if men
with small earniogs are to be discrimi?
nated against-if th ese and other follies
ore to be perpetrated aad to mark the
standard of tbe ability of the Legislature
of 1893, to save the State aod develop
ifs resources and poi it upon a higher
plane of progress, then these things will
be beard from hereafter and many a vote
will be lost to tbe party.
In National matters the present Dem*
cora tic E ouse aa* doa e oe titile io rec?
ord making. If it bas done anything
to increase publia aon&denee in the
party they represent we do not know
what it ts. Perhaps they have done
bettor than oe now think and have
betided better than they knew.
Tba Democrats in 1890 on the hus?
tings aad in the newspapers made a big
tvdeover Tom Reed's Billion Dollar
Coogroes. That was all right, it was
just what should have been done, and
tbe Democrats ought to have been hon?
est ia doing it, and have shown their
faith by their works, aod have proved
their sincerity by their action.
But what bas been done ? The very
Congress that succeeded Reed'? robber
body, that went io on a tidal-wave, has
actually gone beyond Reed*? Billion
Dollar Congress, It has. with 150
Democratic majority in the House,
voted away more money than tbe Reed
g ?og voted away. Tbe amount, appro
piated this session is $519 273 447.
That is for one year. President
Buchanan's Democratic Administration
ran the Grvernment to the great satis
fac ion of the people upon from $65 .
000.000 to some J75.000.000 a year.
Tbe population is bot little more than
double. This Congress votes away in
one year enough money to hare ron
tbe Government from 1854 to 1860
inclusive. Ia cot that record making
with a vengeance? There is this to be
said. About $167,000,000 must be
deducted for the outrageous pension
robberies and oppressions. Even the
trae Northern soldiers are now favoring a
reform in pension law?. The Grand
Army Gazette speaks ont io clarion
tones against the iniquity. Ic says the
incoming Administration mast revine
the pension list. It plainly says that
the roil has been lengthened "beyond
al! reasonable or even oredible dimen?
sions.'* Generals Grant and Garfield,
both Presidents, favored a small pension
list, Dot to exceed, we believe, $30,
000,000 annually Behold how it has
leaped and swelled under tbe Harrison
incapables and unfaithfuls.
The Cleveland Administration and
the Fifty-Third Congress will soon go
into the record making business. Thc
Democrats for the 6rst time sioee 1860
will have control of both the
Administrai ve aod Legislative branch?
es. Tbe judiciary rennins almost j
entirely Republican. We believe Mr. I
Cleveland will make a strenuous and
honest effort to bring about some very
mach nee led ' reforms. He will, cf
course, be arbitrary aod self willed and
i JL JL JCL
deaf to what Democratic leaders maj
say or even the Congress may do, bot
he he will strive to save the country
from macy burdeos and to restore the
Government to a sounder, wiser, more
patriotic basis. This wo believe. He
may fail, bot be is going to make the
effort. Having no possible chance of
hating President again he will act often,
we may anticipate, as if he were not a
Democrat and bad no party back of him.
That thready being given ont by his
fr rends in the North. One of his party
papers io the North says this.
"The Administration is to be the
I best that he eao give the country. He
will not strive to do those things
which the politicians want. The second
Cleveland Admioistratioo will be along
even a higher level of independence and
reform tbao the first."
j That means, we suppose, ;hat he will
do as he pleases and without regard to
bis party. We COD fees we have no
great confidence in his success if he
is bold and nowise enough to play that
game. Jobo Tyler tried it ooce aod
failed outright. But Mr. Cleveland
may be wiser. If he antagonizes bis
party io Congress he will make a
lamentable failure aa a reformer.
Bot whatever happens the Domocrats
will sono be making more record, and
opoo it they succeed or fail in the elec?
tions of 1894? Let os all sustain the
right as we see % Let ns follow no
false leaders, o o ignoramuses io politics,
00 ailoriog wil!-o the-wisps. States?
manship, honesty, patriotism, a thor?
ough knowledge of the financial and
economic situation are needed now as
perhaps were oever needed before.
There is ooe pleasant anticipation to
be indulged. The new Administration
will be for peace with all nations, op?
posed to all commercial clap trap,
against all deceptive aod dashing
"Jingoism,** and willsostaio thc Amer?
ican honor aod name the world over.
You will not catch Grover Cleveland

- -i ?????? -
Of late there bas been much discus?
sion as to the methods of the distribu?
tion of Federal patronage ander Mr.
Cleveland's administration, especially
io Naw York and South Carolina.
These are the two pivotal States, or at
?least t?ey are so regarded, wheo it
cooees tade?v.i&g the course which will be
?*reaed by Mr Cleveland and his cabi?
net ?o tie distribution of favors among
thoee -who op^sse-d his nomination with
activity and ?ve? bitterness. Now we
take it tJ&at the President who bas been
twice chosen by the people is too great
a mao te beeierishing petty animosities
and uowort&y jealousies, and he is far
too w?ee a mao to bc parecUing oat the
places of positioo aod power by the
rule af-three. He is too eiear-sighted
and -sagacious to become a party to any
arrangement which divides the patron?
age like aa army commissary would
issue ratious to separate regiraenst.
Tte primary qualification for office
?oder die OeUveland administration is
adbesieo te the principles of the Demo?
cratic party, and this test will be ap?
plied io 'many ways including a retro?
spect of tile kat earn paige. Because a
cabinet einher has been taken fion
among the men who were formerly
Republicans, and the choice has fallen
opon a very recent convert, it does not
follow that the advocacy of undemo?
cratic doctrines is the last campaign
gives a right to claim honors aod
eoaoi?me&U at the hands of Mr. Cleve?
land and his associates. A convert to
Democratic doctrines tn one thing, bat
an advocate of contrary principles is
quite another thing. The difference
will be made clearly apparent tn a very
?hort time.
When it comes to the individual seek?
ing oSce ander the Cleveland adminis?
tration, after a genuine Democracy is
made the basin, the, next test will
be the fitness and capacity of the ap?
plicant. The Democratic party ba?
been placed on trial again, and mach
will depend opoo the conduct of its
repr?sentatives who aro giveo official
positions. Capable and trustworthy
meo io every community, reflecting
credit upon the government and show?
ing fidelity to the best interests of the
people, will aid materially in perpetu?
ating the rule of the Democracy. No
one bas a better appreciation of this
faot than Mr. Cleveland, who long ago
said that "public office is a pubiio trust/'
and he is not apt to select inefficient
men for the discharge of pbblic duties.
Nor do we expect to find party ser?
vice ignored in the selection of public
oficiala, it is oot a chief requisite,
oor is it a virtue io itself. Other things
being equal, the mao who bas given
time aod talents for the furtherance of
sound doctrine and the promotion of
good government surely deserves aod
will receive recognition at the hands of
an administration whose corner-stone is
allegiance to Democratic principles
No better way bas been found to
propagate snob principles than to em?
ploy the energies and enlist the talents
of those who are in full sympathy with
their practical application, and it will
be a great surprise to the country if the
incoming adiuiniotra?i<m does not make
Democracy stronger and more emphatic
than ever before.-Greenville News.
A Bad Wreck.
A misunderstanding of orders, a

An Ill-Advised Proceeding.
CHARLESTON, March 1-To the
Cotted States District Court today the
questioo of the constitutionality of the
State liquor dispensary law was argued,
and disposed of by Judge Simon ton.
The complainants in the case are A.
and E. Cantini, two Italian subjects en?
gaged in the liquor business here.
Their lawyers are T. W. Baeot and G.
F. VonKolnitz, members of the bar,
neither of whom, however, have been
retained by the State Liquor Dealers'
Association. The matter was kept very
quiet, and nothing was known of the
case until the decision was filed late this
afternoon.
Judge Si mon ton's decision is very ex?
haustive. Tbe following is a summary
of tbe points made by the complaint and
the rulings of the court thereon :
First. It is alleged that the State
dispensary act is io violation of Section
10, Article 1, Constitution of the Uni?
ted States, forbidding States, without
the consent of Congress, to levy any
imports or duties oo imports or exports
except what may be absolutely neces?
sary for executing ita inspection laws.
The court rules that there is BO pro?
vision of this act open to this objection.
Second. That the act is in violation
of section 2, article 4, and also the four?
teenth amendment, which declares that
no State shall make or eoforoe any law
whnh sha!! abridge the privileges or
immunities of citizens of the United
States.
The court declares that there is no
inherent right in a citizen to sell intoxi?
cating liquors by retail ; that the right
to sell ictoxicaticg liquors is not ooo of
the rights growing out of citizenship of
the United States.
Third. The complaint charges that
the dispensary act is m violation of the
fifth amendment of the Constitution of
the United States, which for?
bids the taking of property
without due process of law, and the
taking of private property for poblic use
without just compensation.
To this the court rules that acts done
in the proper exercise of governmental
powers, and not directly encroaching on
private property, although their conse?
quences may impair its use, do not enti?
tle the owner of such property to com?
pensation from the State. That the de?
struction of property io the exercise of
the police power of the State, wheo such
i property is used io violation of law in
maintaining a poblic nuisance, is not
the taking of property for public nee,
and does not deprive the owner of it
without due process of law.
Fourth. The complaint alleges that
the law is in violation of the
Constitution of the State, which
requires that every act or resolution
shall relate to but one subject, and
that shall be expressed in irs title.
The court is very positive in its rul?
ing on this subject. It says it is a set?
tled principle of parliamentary law in
this State that so long as the
enacting words remain io a bill
! it can be amended to any extent,
even by striking ont all up to
the enacting words and inserting
other words as a substitute. The
Constitution does not require every
; word in an act to be read three separate
times oo three separate days. If it did,
no important bill ever became, or can
become, a law.
Fifth. The complaint urges that the
plaintiffs are Italian subjects, and are
protected by the treaty, arnole 2 of
which gives them the liberty to travel
in the States and Territories, to carry on
trade, wholesale and retail, to hire and
occupy houses and warehouse, etc.,
upon the same terms as the natives of
the country. Article 3 gives them
constant protection and security for
?heir persons and property and tte same
rights and privileges as are granted to
the natives.
Judge Simon ton says, under these
articles the complainants have the sarao
rights as citizens of the United
States, and it would be absurd
to say that they had greater
rights. The right to sell intoxicating
liquors is not a right in bereut in a
citizen, and is not one of the privileges
of American citizenship. It is not
within tbe protection of the fourteenth
amendment. It is within thc police
power, wich is a right preserved by the
State that has oot been delegated to the
general government. In its lawful
exercise the States are absolutely
sovereign. Such exeroise cannot be
affected by any treaty stipulation.-The
State.

The Case of The State.
COLOMBIA, March 3 -Attorney Gen?
eral Townsend will probably hare his
petition for habeas cropus and brief for
the United States Supreme Court ready
by to-morrow. It bas been practically
oompleted for some time with the ex?
ception of a few affidavits, but the
Attorney General has not thought it
proper to give it out to the public. The
petition for a babeas corpus is practi?
cally the only part of it that would be
especially interesting to the public, so
it would give the position to be taken
by the State in the big fight. Although
it cannot be taken to be absolutely
correot, the following points raised will
give a general idea, of the position
taken :
First, that the injunction is really
against the State of South Carolina and
is a suit against the Sfate, which is
contrary to the Constitution ; and second,
that to fine or imprison Sheriff Riser
would make it impossible for the State
to execute its laws by its agents.
So far as could be ascertained these
two are among the chief points made,
but the petition covers six or eight
pages of the ordinary Supreme Court
brief paper, and of course other aod
may be equally as strong points are
ra i st-d on the Administration side.
Thc am iavits referred to are ihose of
the auditors and sheriffs of various
counties as well as of members of
the State board of equalization,
in which it is averred that the
assessments were made accord?
ing to the actual value of the property
and that there was no discrimination
against thc railroads by cither the coun?
ty or thc State board and that all were
treated exactly right. Major Townsend
wiil go to Washington Sunday after?
noon in time to reach there Monday
morning, wh<n thc ease will be called
before the Supreme Court.-News and

The We?kly Press.
The thanks of the weekly press are
due to Bro. A. B. Williams for his
kind expression of their value express?
ed in connection with comment on
the recent insult of the News and Cou?
rier.
Brother Williams says:
It is announced that the News and
Courier will hereafter refuse to ex?
change for weekly newspapers unless
the difference in subscription price is
paid in cash or advertising. It is
true that the arrangements for local
correspondence now possible make
the weekly newspapers almost value?
less for news purposes. They are
valuable, however, as guides for shap?
ing the policy and regulating the ed?
itorial tone of thc daily newspapers.
They are very close to the people and
express what the people are thinking
and saying. We read the neighborhood
correspondence of our weekly ex?
changes with far more interest than
the newe columns of the New Yolk
dailies. They tell ns the thoughts
and feelings at the cross roads, tbs
country store piazzas and the springe
at the churches, and how to meet and
deal with all the varying interests and
sentiments among the voters. The
Greenville News, if it had to choose,
would rather go without the New
York and Chicago newspapers than
the South Carolina weeklies.
With such papers as the Greenville
News, Columbia State, Register and
Journal. Augusta Chronicle, aud oth?
er papers at our hands the News and
Courier might be sacrificed at little
cost to the weekies, but it is not un?
likely that they will make the insult
offered them felt by the News and
Courier.

death of Capt. Dawson has never been

dren. 3Iothers hare repeatedly told me of its
good effect upon their children.11

.* Castoria is the best remedy for children cf
which ? am acquainted. I hope the day is cot
far distant when mothers will consider the real
interest of their children, and nae Castoria in
stead of the various quack nostrums which are
destroying their loved ones, by forcing opium,
morphine, soothing syrup and other hurtful
agents down their throats, thereby sending
them to premature graves."

M Our physicians in the children's depart?
ment have spoken highly of the:r experi?
ence in their outside practice with Castoria.
and although we only have among ocr
medical supplies what is known as regular
products, yet we are free to confess that tho

iavor upon it."
