IT MUST BE EXEMPT IPORTA,Nr OPINION ON L:IQUOR SHIPMENTS. if Supplies Come Under Interstate Clause Unless Intended for Illegal Sale, They Are Safe. Colunm State. Attorney General Lyon has given an opinion in which he holds that whiskey for private or personal use can not be seized by any officer. This opinion is directly opposite to the rul ing by Judge Memminger, given in his charge to the jury in SurxteT coun ty, when he declared that V hiskey for personal use was liable tj b. seized The ruling by the attorney general was given on the request of J. L. Gil lis, a magistrate of Rembert, in Sum ter county, and several questions were asked concerning the seizure of whis kies. The Letter Received. The following is the letter address ed to J. L. Gillis, magistrate at Rem bert, by Attorney General Lyon: "Your letter of the 1st inst. is at hand. You ask that you be advised up on the following question: "'1. Is it my duty under the law as a magistrate to have whiskey seized from any and all persons as soon as same is delivered to them by the ex press company or other carrier, where I have no reason to believe that it is for any purpose other than per sonal use?' "Assuming, though you have not so stated, that such whiskey is shipped under the protection of the interstate commerce law, I answer this ques tion, No. When to Seize. "'2. Where whiskey is delivered to one by an express company or other carrier, and I have reason or informa tion to believe that it is to be sold, am I warranted under the law in seizing it as soon as delivered, and is it my duty to do so?' "Assuming, though you have not so stated, that the liquor in question is not shipped to a county dispensary or to a druggist lawfully authorized to sell thte same, I answer this ques tion, Yes. "In answering the above questions I assume that you have used the word whiskey as including pure alcohol and wine." '* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * THE STATE CAMPAIGN.. * ** * * * * * * * * * * * Florence, August 1.-Fifteen coun ties are yet to be visited by the party of gentlemen who are seeking politi cal honors at the hands of South Caro lina voters. Three weeks more of ac tive campaigning and the iti.nerary ends. Tomorrow the "Baby" county, Dillon, will have her first experience Swith a State campaign meeting. To one who follows the campaign party from county to county there is considerable interest, even though the speeches do some times become monotonous. But the hope "that something is going to happen" re liev;es, to a degree at least, the bore dom, especially for the newspaper men. Every now and then a candidate says something new, and the reporters wake up and take notice. Every now and then a candidate takes a shot at an opponent, but these have been of too small a calibre to create much dis turbance. But far be it from this cor respondent to so far deviate from the straight and narrow path of truth to say that any relief is to be found in the introduction of new jokes. It's al ways the same old thing, day after day. Already the newspaper men are considering plans to publish in full each candidate's set of pet jokes; in the opinion of some this will break up the canipaign, or at least cripple it materially. Others say that it is cov ert effort to kill the county to coun ty campaign system. All agree, that is all the candidates agree, that it is but another mtanifestationi of the mean dispositions belonging to "that newspaper bunch." That newspaper bunch, by the way, have something to look forward to each day. When the party assembles about the hotel lobby, the newspaper mar buys a paper at once to see that his story is all 0. K. Before he can give it half a glance along comes a candidate and says: "Let me see your paper a minute." Always obliging, the victim caves. The aforesaid can didate reads every word that has been said about him and his competitors, and handing back your paper, says: "You certainly mssedi it on that my- ife, and I had th" applaus"." The newspaper man, with a sweet smile and a sweeter voice, replies: "'Th ink so?" But while you are talkingr. an other candidate comes up and - ~hear+y approval in his tones, as: it right; didn't I have that crowd. though?" Before the thrill of pleasure quiets down, though, you hear two others who are holding a little conso lation meeting hard by, pass the ver diet that you are a punk reporter be cause you did not mention them. Another kind, is the fellow who jumps on a little error that you have committed; he says nothing to you, but when his turn to speak rolls around, he "jumps the newspapers" for their unfairness. Still another, is the candidate who habitually "c-.,sses out the newspapers." The people do not mind him much, though, for they realize that he hasn't much else to talk about and has to resort to the candidate's last hope. Sometimes they get really very ugly in their talk: they say some pretty mean things. But that line doesn't catch like it "us ter did." About the jokes, though. It is very interesting to watch the effect on a Powd. At some places the people yell and scream with laughter; at oth ers there is only a ripple. The Moncks Corner folks had a fine time; they en joyed those jokes more than any aud ience met with thus far and the "wise" candidate saw which way the wind blew and trimmed his sails according ly; in consequence of which a big and healthy bunch of yarns was handed out. The matter of applause, as intimat ed above, is one of the snags that the newspaper man runs into oftener than any other. As a rule a candidate is able to determine for himself just how he comes out; but sometimes he misses the mark and then he jumps the newspaper man for doing him wrong. Another little "pleasure" that the reporter has to look forward to is the tip that the candidate gives him; along he comes early in the day with this: "I am going to 'light into' it to day; I am going to say,' thus and so. You sit there and try to look interest ed and then-you forget it. As a rule he doesn't "light into" it or anybody with enough force to make the folks take notice. However, to mention only the trials and tribulations of a campaign would be altogether unfair. There are a number of pleasures to be found every day; the party is composed, almost entirely, of congenial, agreeable and affable men. Most of them are on the fi-iendliest terms and their daily in tercouse is of the pleasantest. Friend ships are being formed every day, oth ers are being strengthened. The in tercourse .among the members of the party and with the people of the State is a benefit and a pleasure in most cases. In the various towns visited, the citizens have been uniformly court eous and hospitable; they have exert ed themselves to make the candidates stay really enjoyable. Of course, there have been places where the ho tels were nothing short of "fierce The wonder grows that in these days the travelling public have to be sub fected to such treatment that is often accorded them in some of these South Carolina hotels. Thus far, the majority of the cam paign party have stood up well un der the strain of campaigning. Only Mr. Hampton has been unable to be present at all the meetings on account of physical condition. Mr. Hyatt says he is having the time of his life; Mr. Featherstone takes things easy; noth ing ever bothers Mr. McLeod; Mr. Blease knows how to make a campaign and not wear himself out; Mr. Rich ards works hard, but does not dissi pate his energies. Most of the others have only recently acquired the cam paig-n habit, but they "got next" in short order. S. E. Boney. EX-SECRETARY CARLISLE 'DEAD. Member of President Cleveland's Sec ond Cabinet Passes A;.ay. New York, JIuly 31.-Jno G. Carlisle. former secretary of the treasury, who had been critically ill for the past two days, died at his apartments in New York at 10O3' o'clock tonight of heart failure, accompanied by oedema of the lungs. An intestinal complaint of long standing which wore down his vital ity, lay behind the technical fact of heart failure. He was attacked last spring by the same trouble, but his remarkable vitality triumphed then, as it seemed it might even in the ill ness which ended tonight. John Griffin Carlisle was born in Kenton county, Ky., on September 5, 1835. He was educated in the public schools, later studied law and was ad mitted to the bar. Always a consist ent Democrat, he rose from the Ken ralor :il miiUnal 1:y grad lant d int o na tional affairs. From 1877 to 189(' he was a mem ber of the national house, and from 1S83 to 1SS9 was speaker of the house He resigned to fill the unexpired term ofJames B. Beck, in the Tinited State iii 183. to become secretary of the secretary of the treasury under Presi dent Grover Cleveland. With the retirement from power ol the Democratic party, in 1 S97, he with drew from politics and took up once: more the practice of law, this time in. New York city. where he continued to live until his death tonight. The body will be sent to Washing ton tomorrow and the funeral will probably be held from the residence which Mr. Carlisle still retained there, because of the many cases he argued before the United States suprem( court. Burial will be in the family plot at Covington, Ky. He Saved the Day. It was all off. They had quarreled, i finally and irrevocably. It doesn't matter now what it was about; the chances are, says the Kansas City! Times, that in their anger neither re' membered anything except that he had disappointed her in some awfu, unforgivable way and she had seized!" the diamond engagement ring from a dainty, slender finger and thrust it upon him with a gesture of infinit scorn. For an instant he held the circleti in his hand, ruefully. For another:( instant he paced the porch. hands in' his pockets, head low, his voice quivering with emotion as he plead-! ed. Suddenly he stopped in front of her. "That's final, is it?" he inquired. "Final," she replied, icily. "No man with a spark of" "All right,' he snapped. "That I thing's no use to me, then." His right arm shot out like the k arm of a ball pitcher and a second i later the tinkle, tinkle of metal en the concrete walk half a block away told her he had thrown the ring( away. "Oh!" she cried, and th-are was sudden anguish in her. heart. "I didn't mean it. We must find it-at once." "I don't care for it," he said, stub bornly. "Life has mighty little, now, I to make-" "Silly," she cried. "Help me-im mediately." He couldn't let her go alone, with night coming on, so, after proper re luctance, he followed. In the eager-] ness of searching, all her anger melt ed. It tock a long time, but finally he stopped quickly, and exclaiming1 "her it is," held up the diamond ring. What happened in the next hour is nobody's business except their own. The human, masculine part of the1 story was disclosed to his bosom friend late that night in the quiet of their room. "Had it in my pocket all the time ." he said. "Threw a quarter down the street, and, dad bling it, I didn't find: it either." But it did the work. Notice.
