It went so far ns to say that the iragedy might have been prevent ed if the courts had not dollied in handling the cases that had arisen between the two men. The Times took the position that the tragedy was one of those unfortunate occur rences that might happen anywhere. It was due more to the malignity of the man who perpetrated the Jeed thau to the courts, for the courts are not supposed to become the weapons the presidency In 1908.

The tragedy in Savannah the other Jay did not happen in the rural dis tricts, where respect for the law is not supposed to be so high and neith er was it a result of a long standing feud. It occurred ln the heart of the city, under the shadow of the court house, the Federal court building and the city hall. It was the result of a quarrel over a political cam paign in which men were to be elect ed tp give good government to the oldest city la the state and one where the reverence of the laws should be j$ey ’in$y be the “oAts. ipjjfltas yttle but pr\i DOMINGO'S DEFERRED DP 9 t.

The South Carolina house of rep resentatives has passed a bill abol ishing the state dispensary, but this bill Joes not. abolish all dispensaries In the state. It is known as the Morgan bill and provides for a com mission to lose up the state’s business in the llfruor traffic. The abolition of ttale state dispen sary does not, according to the terms of the bill, affect the right OF counties to have their own dispen saries if they choose, not; . does it touch those who now have dispen saries of their own. The measure seems to be based upon the local option idea and all counties within the next two years will be allowed to vote on the question as to wheth er they shall maintain dispensaries or continue (he prohibition policy. By an especial provision the county <3[f Charleston, of which the metropo lis of the state is the seat, is the only county In the state that is al lowed the option of a license sys tem. Under this option 4he license for a retail saloon tk fixed at the high mark of $1,000, but the. people of the county are conceded the prlv ilege to elect, if it may be their will, to have a county dispensary or abso lute prohibition. This bill has yet to run the gaunt let of the senate, and if it succeeds in passing that body, it will still have to teceive the signature of the governor of the state, and possibly thereafter the supreme court of the state may be ailed to determine as S . * to the constitutionality of the law, which in some respect seems, at this distance to 4).e rather loosely drawn. —Macon, Tefegraph.
