2 GOY. TILLMAN’S MESSAGE. BAILROAD RECEIVERSHIPS AND THE DISPENSARY LAW. The Document is Mainly Devoted to These Two Topics The New Liquor Law a Success. Columbia, S. C., Nov. 28. — The General Assembly met in session to day. Following are the more nota ble portions of Governor Tillman s message. After reviewing the finan cial condition of the State as shown >y the treasurer’s report, he takes up the subject of “railroad taxes and re ceivership.” He says : “During the year a question of vital importance, ami one more far reaching in its consequences to the States than any that has arisen since the celebrated Virginia coupon cases, has been passed upon by the Federal courts and decided in a measure that must excite the alarm and resent ment of every lover of liberty and justice. The issue involved the sov ereignty of the State and the equality of all tax-payers before the law; and, by the decision rendered by the Cir cuit Court in Charleston and sus tained by the United States Supreme Court, that sovereignty has been dis regarded and, in effect, destroyed, and a preferred class of tax-payers created with special privileges not vouchsafed to other citizens. * * * KAILROAD LITIGATION. “The State Railroad Board of Equalization, in pursuance of its du ties, assessed the taxes on railroads for the fiscal year, 1890-91, in ac cordance with its understanding of the constitution and the law. The railroads made a return of their property at a much lower value, and, when the time for the payment came, tendered only such taxes as were due on their own assessment. Injunctions were granted by the United States Court in every case against the treasurers, prohibiting the issue of executions and the col 'ection of the taxes in dispute. The Attorney-General and his associate jounsel denied the jurisdiction of file Circuit Court in those cases where the amount involved was less lhan 82,000, and denied the right of he court to lump the amounts ip the different counties so as to bring the mu up to the requirements for ob &ining jurisdiction; and the main ssue asj to the legality of the taxes was left to rest, pending the appeal to the Supreme Court on this ques tfon of jurisdiction. ONLY PARTIALLY ENDED. “In January la>t the Supreme Court decided the question in favor of the State, and decided that the lower court had no jurisdiction where ‘.he sum of taxes in dispute in any one county was le<s than 82,000. This at once ended the fight, so far as all the railroads not in the hands of receivers were concerned, and those roads paid the taxes due. But, unfortunately, out of a total railroad mileage in South Carolina of 2,552 miles, 1,419 miles, considerably more than half, are in the hands of re ceivers, and the question which pre sents itself to us is, whether, during the life of the receiverships, which dt pends on the will of the courts, the State shall be denied the right to collect the taxes assessed in accord ance with her laws and shall receive only what the alien owners of the roads, who select the receivers, see proper to pay. * *. * THE LAW OF RECEIVERS. “The law of receivers is altogether modem. It rests almost wholly on judicial legislation. It took its rise in the Court of Equity in England tome hundred years ago, and up to 1860 the powers and duties of re ceivers and the control of bankrupt, estates by judges thr< ugh them were of small importance and caused no disquiet. The receiver hold the trust estate pending the litigation, took care of it, paid the taxes, when necessary kept things in repair—and that was about all. But during the last thirty-rive years this small, insig nificant power has spread and grown with the rapidity of the banyan tree hi the tropic jungles of Asia, until it now overshadows the land and blights the sovereignty of the States, becoming a, veritable Upas tree, vhich threatens the existance of local self-government. This devel ipment has been owing to and has siept pace with the construction, of railroads and the numerous cases of bankruptcy in which they are in volved by reassn of bad manage ment, watering of stock, or wreckage wrought by a bare majority of stock holders, who seize a railroad and run it in their own interests, with a view of defrauding the minority stock holders and stealing their property. Too often, alas’, the courts are in struments to carry out the rob bery. * * * STATE SOVEREIGNTY. “The State had exercised its sov ereignty to levy taxes in accordance widi its own laws. Its officers, in compliance with their oaths, pro ceeded to obey those laws. Every tax-payer, whether an individual or a corporation, should be amenable to those laws alike, and any decision v, hich destroys that equality i/ an outrage upon justice. If all judges were honest, or fair, or just,, this power of discrimination could . work no wrong; but a receiver in the mat ter of taxes should be the same as any other citizen or corporation. Any favoritism that is shown him is a premium on fraudulent bankruptcy and brings the judiciary into dis credit. If the Court has the discre tion and power through its receiver to do all the various acts accessary to run a railroad, and even build ad ditional mileage, as has been done and is being done, it could pass upon the advisability of paying taxes in private, and doubtless does it. When, therefore, a receiver refuses to pay taxes as illegal, it follows that | the court must think as it does, and ■ it is a mockery to tell us to appeal to such a tribunal. “There is no law for this unwar ranted interference on the part of • the United States Court; there is nothing in the United States consti tution to -warrant it. The authors of that instrument never dared to set up any such claim, and the court only obtained it by a violent assump tion of power, which is the essence of tyranny.” the dispensary law. Coming to the subject of the dis pensary law, Governor Tilllman said : “Perhaps no measure passed by any Legislature of any State within the memory of man has excited such widespread comment and elicited such deep interest. This is mainly owing to the fact that it is an en tirely new idea from an American standpoint and deals with the ques tion of controlling the liquor traffic in a new way. AN ABSORBING TOPIC. “In the State the dispensary law has been, and still is, the one absorb ing, never-ending topic of discussion, and it has produced some comical alignments and alliances in the ef forts to obstruct and defeat it. News papers which have always fought pro hibition, and those known as the organs of the whisky ring, have suddenly become strong advocates of Drohibi ion. Prohibitionists who are so radical in their views that, the uncharitable call them ‘cranks’ have been found shoulder to shoulder with bar-keepers and whisky dealers in opposing it; and while many emi nent divines have lent it their aid and indorsement, others are hitter in its denunciation. The more mod erate prohibitionists are delighted with it. The whisky men arc more bitter in their opposition to it than they have ever been toward prohi tion. “If it can be shown that under the dispensary system there will be a re duction in the consumption of liquor and a necessary reduction in crime and misery resulting from it, it must follow that the dispensary, without regard to the revenue feature, is a long stride forward and an improve ment on the license system. I will not pretend to say that it is as good as prohibition wftuld be, but 1 do say that prohibition, here or anywhere else, is impossible, and the only ques tion is how best to regulate t he traffic so as to minimize the inevitable in jury to society inseparable from the sale, of liquor under any circum stances. merits of the law. “The claims of dispensary to support and its superiority over any form of licensing rest on the follow ing grounds: “First—The element of personal profit is destroyed, thereby removing the incentive to increase the sales. “Second—A pure article is guar anteed, as it is subject to chemical analysis. “Third—The cor sumer obtains honest measure of standard strength. “Fourth —Treating is stopped, as the bottles are noL opened on the premises. “Fisth —It is sold only in the day time ; this under a regulation of the board and not under the law. Sixth —The concomitants of ice, sugar, lemons, etc., being removed, there is not the same inclination to drink remaining, and the closing of the saloons, especially at night, and prohibition of its sale by the drink, destroy the enticements and seduc tions which have caused so many men and boys to be led astray and enter on the downward course. “Seventh —lt is s -Id only for cash, and there is no longer ‘chinking up’ for daily drinks against pay day. The workingman buys his bottle of whisky Saturday night and carries the rest of his wages home. “Eighth Gambling dens, pool rooms and lewd houses, which have hitherto been run almost invariably in connection with the saloons, which were thus a stimulus to vice, sepa rated from the sale of liquor, have had their patronage reduced to a minimum, and there must neces sarily follow a decrease of crime. “Ninth —The local whisky rings, which have been the curse of ox cry municipality in the State, and have always controlled municipal elec tions, have been torn up root and branch, and the influence of the bar-keeper as a political manipulator is absolutely destroyed. The police, removed from the control of tiiese debauching elements, will enforce the law against evil doing with more ; vigor, and a higher tone and greater purity in all governmental affairs must result. * * profits from the new method. ‘ Under the scale of prices fixed by | the State Board on whisky now sold in South Carolina there is a hand- 5 some profit, while at the same time i rhe liquor at retail is cheaper than it : was when sold across the bar. I Making allowances for the watering , and other adulteration of .the whisky that was formerly consumed, a half j pint bottle of dispensary whisky that i now costs 20 cents and containing i five age drinks of far superior i PEOLE’S PARTY PAPER, ATLANTA. DECEMBER 8, 1893. strength, would have cost at least 50 cents from a saloon. The profit on the half pint goes to the reduction of the general tax, and the 30 cents saved to the consumer goes into his pocket for the support of his fam ily. * * * BEER MIGHT BE EXEMPTED. “Now as to the question of beer. I am inclined to believe that it will be in the interest of temperance to exempt it from the dispensary law altogether, upon certain conditions, to-wit: Require license under such stringent regulation?! ensure only men of probity and good char acter obtaining them. Rut the beer sellers under a ten thousand dollar bond for the strict qusevance of the law : the conditions of the bond to be such that whenever satisfactory’ proof has been adduced that he has sold anything else than beer or has broker, the law in the least particular the bond shall be forfeited in the most speedy and that the law can devise. The beer saloon can be closed at any hour the General Assembly sees proper. The point I wish to make is, that, so far as we may, it is good policy and in the *4’ temper ance to encourage the consumption of beer as against the consumption of whisky. Under such reltrictions as I have mentioned very; few men would run the risk of undertaking to sell anything else This course must be pursued or else the Legislature will have to prohibit ab solutely everything of the name or nature of beer or malt bquor of any kind containing a trace of alcohol. * * * HEROIC MEASURES NECESSARY. “Desperate diseases require heroic remedies, and the General Assembly may as well understand that the en forcement of this law ia some parts of the State, and especially in Charles ton, Columbia, Greenville, Spartan burg, Beaufort and Sumter, will require some special legislation. It is against the municipal ordinances to sell whisky without license An every town in the State, hut the po lice in the cities as a rule stand idly by and see the ordinances broken everyday; are particeps criminis in the offense, or ac'ive aiders and abet ters of the men who break it. As soon as a constable arrives in town he is spotted by them and reported to those who run the illicit saloons. “Under the provision of the dis pensary act one-half of the revenue oi' the local dispensaries, over and above the expenses, goes into the treasury of the municipality where they are located. I see 'no remedy for the condition of affairs existing in Charleston and Columbia except to provide for a system of metropolitan police, divorcing the control of the police force absolutely frdta politics aoj jfcjizj-Ahe hay com mission, who '.ppll a' 'direct and remove such members of the force as will not enforce the law. I asked the Mayor of Charleston, with whom I had a conference, to have the police aid me in repressing and uprooting the ilicit sale of whisky, but he dechnned, on the ground that that duty had been imposed on the State Constables.” To Organize for 1894. Chairman Harrity, ex-Postmaster General Don Dickinson, ex-Assistant Secretary of State Josiah Quincy, ex- Congressman B. T. Cable, Hon. John Hopkins, of Illinois, and other prom inent Democrats have had two or three informal conferences, in Wash ington, at which a suggestion that headquarters of the National Demo cratic party be opened in that city was discussed and considered. The proposition is that the Demo cratic National Committee shall give some attention to the election of 1894. with a view of having a systematic campaign made. The matter is to be further considered, and is likely to take definite shape soon. AH the gentlemen named have left for their homes, but the statement as to their purpose to make concerted effort to check the further progress of the landslide was obtained author itatively They all called at the White House during their stay in the city Fair Profits Gone Glimmering. Cun ago, Nov. 17.—The assets of the World’s Fair are dwindling to an exten: that alarms the managers. When the Exposition closed, on Oc tober 30, Treasurer Seeberger bad in round numbers $2,250,000 in cash in bank. This has been slipping away in spite of what the managers claim is the most economical management, at the rate of 810,000 a day. But in addition to that, the assets have been shrinking in the most un expected manner. Discoveries have lately been made, it is said, which in any enterprise but the World's Fair would be regarded as- sensational in, the extreme. It transpires that a large amount of property that the Exposition managers expected to sell, and with the funds pay back to the stockholders a small perccentage of their contributions, does not belong to the Fair at all, but is owned by con tractors. The contractors are mov ing their property away. They are literally stripping the Exposition grounds. How much will be left when they -get through can only be surmised. In some cases they own the roofs of the buildings. Hard on the Tramp. At Au Claire, Wisconsin, a negro tramp crawled into a car of lumber bound for Burlington, lowa, and lay down -on top of the pile. He fell asleep, and the lumber being wet swelled up, crushing him against the roof of the car. When the car ar rived at Burlington the dead body was found. ROLL OF HONOR. E. A. Wilson, Thomson, Ga.

Allow all the people an equal chance to get some of that money instead of al lowing the boodlers a monopoly of get ting it ; give cotton and wheat and laud a« good a chance as you give the bonds whose value depends on cotton and wheat and land. 3. Tax the fat incomes of the million aires instead of the plows and hoes and clothes and blankets of the laborers. 4. Coin silver on terms of equality with gold, so that the people will have both kinds of money. 5.
