(Continued From Pag One).
t;n ' as . between county prohibition
tnsl county dlsponsarles.
The plank In my platform upon
tiiat question liti follows: ,
"I am opposed to ths system of a
Ftate dispensary, I' am In favor of
local county 1 option between county
prohibition and county dispensaries.
3U:t each county say for Itself whether
It desires that liquor ahall b sold In
that: county, or that H ahall ' not bo
old therein. . Thla t system haa bean,
and la now, the lawtn aeveral of tha
Elates around and near us, and it la
regarded with eatlafactlon ao far aa I
have been, able to learn. Ton know
what ' you had rather have In your
, county, aad you 'ahould, therefore,
have tha right to aay so,, and not let
. other countlea Vote upon what your
county should Jiave. . You manage
your own county affalra In every thing
lae,rwhy,ot in thla matter?
"I favor each county voting upon
that question f atj. themselves. If the
vote fa for liquor to be sold, then let
a. county dispensary ' be operated In
that cennty'under the restrictions now
thrown around the sale of liquor with
such other regulations aa the Legis
lature may daetn best.,. Let the coun-
. ty board of control be appointed by
the Governor and let the board so
' appointed have charge of the wholo
matter for that county, said board to
. report to the Judge at each term of
the Circuit Court for that county of
" all of Its actings and doings, and
then let the judge hand that report
' t the grand Jury for their inspection
and Investigation, with such Instruc-
7 tlona as he may think proper. What
ever" profit la made will go to the
county. Let the dispensers be paid
v salary and not a commission on
what they sell. If the vote is for
prohibition, then allow no liquor to bo
' ' aold la auch county, and - pass a
atringent law providing for the pun
Ishment of all "blind tigers" and oth
er Violators of the law, and make
ft the duty of the county sheriffs.
t deputies, constables, marshala, pollee-
t nan and other peace officers, to see
it It that this law Is enforced, and
,' all violators are brought to Justice
and punished.
1 x "l would bo glad If no liquors were
aold as a beverage, but the conditions
" are auch at this time, that I believe
this to be the beat way to deal with
th question."
- 1 stand upon that platform to-day,
and I urge that you enact a law aV-
" taking tha State dispensary system
, and give tha people of each county
the right to voto upon the question
V of oounty prohibition or oounty dls
, ' penaary.
' ' The best way of controlling the sale
- r of liquor haa been agitating the minds
of the people of this country for many
k years; the sale of It has been declared
' U evil by tha highest courts of the
land and tha question for us now Is
which la the best vay of controlling
It In thla BUte.
.Tha State dispensary system was
. adopted, and after a trial of 12 years,
! a great majority of the people of
tha State have said that they wish
ft abolished and that each county
shall be allowed the right o say
' "'Whether they will have prohibition or
$ county dispensaries.
The will of the people Is supreme,
3 , and we should heed their demands.
- Many of you were elected upon the
. same platform and tha matter is now
. before you, gentlemen. It Is for you
1 ' to aay whether the will of the peo
' pie shall be carried out or not. Let
us do our duty without fear or fav
' or.
BUCKET SHOPS.
Another matter that I deslro to
bring to your attention Is the enact
ment of a law preventing the oper
ation of what are known as "bucket
shops," or cotton or stock exchanges.
This Is a species of speculation t tint
.. Is taking thousands of UoIIuth from
this State, In demoralizing our cltl-
r sens, and Is bringing many of thf-m
to poverty and ruin,
r ' The States of North Carolina and
Georgia have already prohibited them
.from doing business within tlu-lr
boundaries, and we owo It ' to our
.'; selves and to the cood nam of the
, State that we follow the example so
! worthily set us. We now have on
r ;- our statute hooks an act declarini;
' "unlawful, contracti for the sale of
t articles for future delivery, made un-
.. der certain ctrauniKlanrrs," etc.
Let us now follow thin up with an
act prohibiting any bucket shop, or
. cotton or stock exchange or any uttmr
exchange of Ilka character from doing
y business In this State.
ASSAULT. KTC.
- I further wish to call to your alt
tentlon another nutter which I con
sider of grave Importance at this par
- "."tlcular time In our history, and that
la the enactment of a law providing
:".. the death penalty to any male person
r making an assault upon a female with
Intent to ravish, granting the right to
. ,the Jury trying the caso to tlx the
punlshmen at life imprisonment In the
, State penitentiary If In their Judg-
mnt the facts warrant a lesa punxh
ment than death.
In this day when we read of mo
many assaults of this character being
made, It behoovm us to wske up to
tbo- Situation and make the penalty'
" atvere tnat the women of this
te tnay be protected from the heln-
CTlme and the perpetrators pun-
f severely that all will be de
rd from committing the same.
,1 farther recommend that an act be
, passed providing that in all case- f
: rspo or assault with Intent to ravish.
. the female he allowed to testify in'
orlvate. before the 1ule In th.
.". . enc Of counsel for the Htate and de-
-,;,leodant and the defendant himself ,n" "ftn,ln physician will take the
-' " and that the testimony ao taken shall ' m"" ,',l0W Nor,n ,or ,n P,,''"t0
If: be read to the Jury as the evidence of ' R'her than leave the master. In
the esse. This is the w in at least ! w,,ow rr "h hmi chew',, mn
. one, U not more, of the States of the and many 0U(1' a cow c"nmltted
: ITnlon. and should be the law in this r,M-hUwA suicide here. Mr. B. F.
' Htate. McHure sold his cow to Jim Stray-
In this connection. I think It lm- ! horn tnT ,S0 A m " for th
' portant aUo to sak that you pasa nn ,'ow ,ai',d ,0 ho hag to the
act making It a misdemeanor to post I hom? of Mr. Bwayhorn. when the re
or tllsplay In any public place r i f,u,M'd - DPU "hovlng and pul
oa any street or hlarhwav in,u.I,n I "n the rope, the spirited yet
V fHctures of females, It Is an evil that
bas been growing In the last few
'. - years, and one that calls for action
'. on our part. It Is not necessary for
-. me to call to your attention the rta-
'' t wim vtlir Stilttl m tt .kniiln k. . .. - i.
1 obvious to all right thinking per-
' aona. '
I respectfully recommend that a
aw TW UOWU. 11
v.tm of mounted ..nil. ...
for the rural districts be established.
This Is no new Idea, but one that 1
being carried, out with great success
in many countries. When there ar so
' many vagrants and Idlers rooming
nbouL and there Is so much work to
. be done on every side, the work or
move-on system should be established,
and that can be carried out better by
such mounted patrol of police . sys
tem, than by any other plan. Give
them authority to arrest all violators
of the law of the State, and carry
them before th nearest magistrate
for crtnl or commitment for trial i
the Court of General, Sessions. - '.
When we hoar so much complaint
from so many source of the neglet
r r om! ..ion of the railroad companies
, wf w - - -m V, (f.llVI
doing business In this State, Of giving
to the people proper passenger 'and
freight accommodations and rates and
accurate Information of delayed
trains, It is very evident to every
thinking person that the railroad
commissioners should have power to
correct these things and to give re-
lief Where It is fair and Just between
the railroads and the people. The
railroad corporations should be dealt
with fairly and Justly, .but at the
same time the peoples' right ahould
be provided for and respected. k; "
I, therefore, recommend that auch
additional powers be given to the
railroad commissioners aa will enabbie
them to compel the railroads to com
ply with auch reasonable . rules and
orders aemay be Justand proper,
In thla connection. I would recom
mend that the act now of force re
quiring the salaries of tho railroad
commlaslonera to be paid by the rall
roada be repealed. The office of rail
road commissioner la a State office
and the salary ought to be paid by the
State.
SUPREME COURT.
I desire, gentlemen, to call your at
tention also tothe matter of the ne
cessity for better accommodations
for our Supreme Court The space
alloted in the State House for tha
use of the Supreme Court has all been
taken up with the library and re
cords, except one consultation room
and the court room. I respectfully
ask that you look Into this matter and
provide for tho necessities oi ine
court In this regard.
IMMIGRATION.
There Is no question of greater mo
ment to our material and Industrial
life than that of Immigration. The
labor question Is a very serious one.
Many thousands of acres of landa are
now Ivlntr idle for the want of labor
ers, and many other avenues of trade
are offering work to the workers. To
my mind, the best solution of this
question Is the bringing in of home
seekers, home builders and desirable
workmen.
I. therefore, recommend that you
take such steps aa may to you seem
wIh to foster and sustain the depart
ment of Immigration now occompllah-
Ingso much work on this line.
STATUE OP JOHN C. CALHOUN.
While many of the States ot tnis
union have honored themselves Dy
placing In the Hall of Fame, in tne
Capitol at Washltjgton.D. C, statues
of one or two of their honored and
eminent sons, who have done noble
work fr their 8tates and for the
union, South Carolina's place haa re
mained vacant. I reapectfully re
commend that you give this matter
your careful attention and give some
consideration to the same that at no
distant day the statue of John C. Cal
houn may adorn that hall, for by
thus honoring that noble son of South
Carolina, we will honor ourselves.
Such other matters, gentlemen, as
may be proper to bring to your at
tention during the present session, I
shall allude to in special messages.
. CONCLUSION.
Allow me to add In the words of
that eminent statesman, Thomas Jef
ferson, who, whon called to the of
fice of President of the United States,
closed his Inaugural address, In part
as follows:
"I repair, then, fellow citizens, to
the post you have assigned me, with
experience enough In subordinate of-
flcea to have seen the difficulties of
this, the greatest of all. I have learn
ed to expect that It will rarely fall to
the lot of Imperfect man to retire
from this station with the reputation
and the favor which brings him Into
It. I shall often go
wrong through defect of Judgment,
when right, I shall often be thought
wrong by those whose positions will
not commaml a view of the whole
ground. I shall ask your Indulgence
for my own errors, which will never
be Intentional; and your support
UKulriHt the errors of others, who may
condemn whut they would not, If seen
In all of Its parts. My solicitude will
be to retain the good opinion of
those who have bestowed It In ad
vance, to conciliate that of others by
doing them all the good In my power,
and to he Instrumental In the hnp
pLnenn and freedom of all.
"Relying then, on the patronage of
yur good will, I advance with obedi
ence to the work, and may that In
finite Power, which rules the desti
nies of the Universe, lead our coun
cils to whnt Is best, and give them a
favorable hmii for your peace and
prosperity."
