VME EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent circulation in Washington three times larger than that ofany ether paper in the city. As a local NEWS paper and Ad- Yertisiug Medium It has no competitor. ‘Temperance people and people who could hardly be so denominated even if they were willing sre going to be deeply interested in the extensive experiment which is about tobe made in South Carolina, After many years of ex- perience with the old-fashioned methods of selling intoxicants there has been a legislative revolution and from and after July 1 the state | will control and operate every saloon within its borders. So far as the United States is concerned, the application of this regulator idea isa novelty, but in Sweden and Norway it is an old story and no longer to be regarded as in any way problematical. The South Caro- | lina law is very exp! it provides that the governor shal! appoint a commissioner of the | state dispensary, an official whose duty it is to purchase all the liquor to be sold in the state. He has to buy only the best quality, and im order that théte may be no question oa this point be is fo be assisted by | the state chemist. A state board of control is to appoint a board of control for each county, | and itis to these latter organizations that ap- plications must be made by those who desire to become county or retail dispensers. There can be but onegdispenser in each county, except in Charleston. where there may be ten, and in Columbia, where three is the limit. Some counties will probably have to get along with- out even a single dispensary. for the statute bas it that no person shall be a dispenser who isnot a citizen of the United States and the state, of good moral character. or who is a druggist, hotel keeper, restaurant or saloon keeper, or the proprietor or manager of a place of public amusement. Any applicant who is ad- dicted to the use of intoxicating liquors as thirst promoters and quenchers is in- eligible, and no one can rise to the dignity of an applicant unless he be indorsed by a majority of the freehold voters of the town or city in which the permit is to be used. Probibition ideas prevail in many localities within the state, and it is easily possible that several anxious ‘ones will find themselves fatally short on auto- graphs. Protection to home industries isa fea- ture of the legislation. Liquors manufactured within the state, all other things being equal, are to be given preference by the purchasing power, but coupled with this provision is lan- guage which prevents the manufacturer from selling any liquors in the state except to the state commissioner. ‘This latter official sees to it that the beverages are put up in packages of not less than half a pint nor more than five gallons, and these packages may not be broken by the dispenser. Purchasers must be ef full age and not habitual drunkards, ‘and before they can be served with the liquids they desire must apply in writing, giv- ing needed particulars as to their identity, as to the kind and quantity of liquor required, why and for whom. There seems to be no question as to the soundnoss of the law; even the legal advisers of the liquor dealers agree that it isin conformity with the state constitation. It is estimated that about five thousand men now employed in the nearly nine hundred saloons and the fourteen wholesale establishments will be thrown out of employment, and these will, by the terms of the act, be compeiled either to enter other industrial fields or migrate to some of the many commonwealths where there are no restrictions that restrict. Gov. Tillman is most emphatic in his declarations as to the law's enforcement, and as the profits—which will be one hundred per cent on the original investment—are to go into the state treasury | for the purpose of lightening taxation the gov- ernor will probably receive a good deal of sup- port in his efforts to give the new system a fair ‘trial. —_—_e2—___. Secretary Carlisle positively disclaims any in- tention of making the dismissals of District employes with which on apparently good au- thority he bad been credited by the public. It seemed almost incredible to Tue Stax that he could have contemplated so unjust and cruel an act, and in diseussing the matter Tar Stan in- timated its reluctance to believe the statements | to this effect, however well-founded they might sppear tobe. It matters not now how the re- port originated; it is enough to know that the Secretary will not reach the inexeusably inhuman conclusion to which it was believed he was tending. Of course it is not probable that many of those who have no other home than the national capital and who are guilty of the unpardona- bie offense of being accredited residents of the Distriet will receive new appointments in any of the departments, and as such appointments were not confidently looked for no one will be much surprised. The Secretary is eminently correct when he says, as he did yesterday to a Sram reporter, that it would be cruel to dis- charge those who are efficient and who are de- pendent for their living upon their positions, Secretary Carlisle bas always been a manly man, and his declaration on this, to Washing- tonians and to the departmental service, most important matter is as creditable to himself as | The Colored American is the latest addition to the journalistic representatives of the negro! face in this country. It declares itself to be “a Bational negro newspaper” and in accord with the fitness of things it. being national, is pub-| lished at the national capital. In a broad-gauge eelutatory the American says of iteelf that “neither individual nor corporate power bas hold upon its exercise of free utterance. It is identified with no faction in the District of Columbia and will be controlled by none. In Politics its course will be independent and sub- ject to the domination of no set of party man- agers. This paper will be true to the black people of this country at every turn in the road. It will be absolutely free to approve or censure, und its opinions cannot be hawked | about the market for sale at any price.” | ‘The first issue of this candidate for public | favor is a remarkably well arranged sheet, Printed in s decidedly superior fashion, ee Baron Henghive: lord Heutenant of Ireland, has inewed an order limiting the importation of armsand ammunition to the country over which he, to some extent, is the ruler. Weapons and cartridges will not be permitte. entry save through certain ports, and sharp wateh will be kept to prevent evasion of the Testrictions. The ukase came into being be- cause it was startlingly evident that the men of Ulster were preparing to render the provisions ef the home rule bill inoperative by such dis- sey of force as they deemed necessary. The sdtaation in the green and orange isle is in- clined to be explosive, and the Gladstonian government knows it. zee Kansas’ wheat outlook is said to be bad, and it is feared that her farmers have been paying too much attention to polities. a ‘This coming summer may be expected demonstrate that cleanliness is superior to the cholera. —_—_~oo Young lawyers should appreciate the manner im which the sppointments are taking talent away from some of the old-established law firms, —_~++____ Spring seems to be arriving with all rapidity ‘and ims little while the season will be here ‘when the small boy is going in “swimmin’,” with or without the law's consent.
