State Dispensary Revelations.
They are probing into the State
Dispensary in South Carolina, and
the result may mean the downfall
of the system there. They will
certainly deter any other State of
an empirical turn from trying it.
Graft, of course. And the chances
are that not an infinitesimal part
of the graft has been revealed or
will be brought out during the in
vestigation. But there is enough,
in all conscience. Mr. Blanking,
the beer dispenser at Sumter,
“told the committee that he had
informed the representative of a
certain Kentucky distillery that
he would like to order export
beer through him, but the repre
sentative had told him he could
not sell beer in this State, as the
Board of Directors wanted too
much ‘rake-off.’ ” Mr. E. Smith,
former dispenser somewhere else,
told the committee that “the rep
resentative of a certain brand of
beer in 1900 told him that the dis
penser should push that brand, as
his people would put up $5,000
for a certain prospective candi
date for Governor.” The week
when the-hquor was bought from
the various houses, the board sit
ting at Columbia seems to have
been one grand, sweet orgy. The
drummers kept open house and
open bottles. All the judges sam
pled all brands. And then, when
they were not in a condition to
tell the worst from the best, they
made the selections. Another
witness had gotten a position for
a friend as clerk of the board.
The friend resigned soon, saying
significantly that the “temptation
was too great;” This, be it' un
derstood, was brought out during
one day’s sitting. Each subse
quent day the investigation will
doubtless add similar damning
evidence. The dispensary plan is
beautiful in theory, but in prac
tice it is probably impossible to
prevent wholesale graft and the
mixing up of poweiful liquor in
fluences in State politics, with
consequent corruption. “The
temptations are too great.”—N.

Saturday a Bad Day for Hamburg.
Hamburg, Miss., Sept. 23.—
This has been a black letter day
for this little town. The yellow
fever was announced here on
Sept. 13, since which time there
have been only eleven cases of
fever, four of which had been dis
charged last night at 8 o’clock.
The first death occurred when
Earl Allen succumbed at 6 o’clock
this morning. L. 11. Byrd also
died and his death was soon fol
lowed by that of Mrs. W. L. Al
len, mother of Earl Allen, and
only a few minutes elapsed before
W. J. Strahan’s death was an
nounced. The report of Dr. Ma
gee tonight shows two new cases,
making thirteen in all, four dis
charged and four deaths, leaving
five under treatment, all of whom
seem to be doing fairly well.—

CAPT. BARKER’S DEATH.
Mississippi Soldier Accorded Many Hon
ors in Japan.
Seattle, Wn., Sept. 14, 1905.—
The body of Capt. Walter B. Bar
kei, of Mississippi, United States
army quartermaster at Nagasaki,
who died in Tokio, Japan, Aug.
8, from injuries sustained in a
railroad wreck, will be brought to
the United States for burial by
the first transport touching at
Nagasaki.
The funeral services were held
in the Baptist church at Nagasaki,
and the large attendance and the
tributes to the deceased in the na
tive press, according to advices
received here by mail, showed the
high regard in which the officer
was held in the Mikado’s king
dom.
Capt. Barker was a passenger
on a train on the Kiushu Railroad
which was blown from an embank
ment in a hurricane. Thirty-sev
en persons were seriously hurt.
Capt. Barker was the only for
eigner in the first-class compart
ment, which rolled over and over
down the slope, burying him un
der the wreckage. When rescued
ho was taken to the Tokio hospital
and his injuries received prompt
attention, but he was beyond hu
man aid and expired in the night.
Describing the funeral service
held in Nagasaki, the press of that
oity says, despite the request that
no flowers be sent until the body
had been placed on a transport,
ma«y were sent by friends. The
casket was folded in the Stars and
Stripes. The exercises were con
ducted by Rev. E. N. Walne, as
sisted by Dr. II. Stout and Rev.
Y. Chiba, and the last named de
livered an address in Japanese, in
which he touched upon the strong
sympathy of Capt. Barker for the
Japanese in their struggle with
the Russians.
liev. E. N. Walne, after read
ing the 102nd Psalm, delivered a
memorial address, and was visibly
affected as he spoke of the shock
he experienced at the abrupt ter
mination of his friend’s life. The
story of Capt. Barker’s life, said
the preacher, could be summed up
in “soldier, patriot and loyal
friend,” the greater emphasis be
ing laid upon the last attribute.
Mr. Walne believed that Capt.
Baiker was never so happy as
when helping some one in dis
tress. As an instance he cited the
period when Capt. Barker was
United States consul at Matanzas,
Cuba. The Cubans were in utter
destitution on account of the war
with Spain, and Capt. Barker
faithfully distributed the funds
granted by his government for
their relief. When these were
exhausted he spent every cent of
his own money, and when that
was gone he appealed to his
friends at home for help. Mr.
Walne commented upon the num
ber cf nationalities represented at
the funeral, and said it represent
ed the cosmopolitan nature of
Capt. Barker’s friendships. He
concluded with a prayer for the
saddened relatives of his late
friend.
The body of Capt. Barker was
embalmed at the Nagasaki Med
ical College and will be forwarded
to the United States by the next
army transport calling at Nagasa
ki, in accordance with instructions
cabled from the United States.
Captain Barker was buried at
Macon, last Sunday. The funer
al services were attended by a
large number of people from all
parts of East Mississippi. The
cortege was led by the Noxubee
Kifles, followed by Confederate
Veterans, Walter Barker, in com
mand; the United Daughters of
the Confederacy and Knights
Templar.
Living At Home.
Laurel, Miss., Sept. 21.--Next
to cotton and corn, wliich have al
ways been the leading crop of this
section, attention has been paid
for the past year or two to ribbon
cane. It has been found that it is
one of the most profitable crops
that can be grown in this section,
400 gallons of syrup per acre be
ing no uncommon yield in this
county. Last year Jones county
syrup took several prizes. Nu
merous small cane mills have
sprung up in this section within
the last year or so, and much mo
lasses is being manufactured for
the local and foreign market.
Formerly.most of the syrup used
in this section came from Louis
iana.
Forty years ago every farmer
in this section of the State grew
his own wheat, and made his flour
at home. The high price of cot
ton after the war made jfc more
profitable to grow cotton and buy
flour. Recently, however, a move
has been started by some of the
farmers to grow their own wheat,
and it is said that a fair acreage
will be planted in this section this
winter. Owing to the inability
of farmers to secure laborers to
grow cotton, an effort is to be
made to grow everything possible
that can be used on the farm, and
it will not be necessary to make
so much cotton, which is the prin
cipal money crop of this section.

INTER-STATE
CONVENTION.
GOVERNOR VARDAMAN JOINS THE
CALL FOR MEETING.
Quarantines, immigration and Other
Topics of Vital Importance Will
be Discussed at Chattanooga.
Governor Vardanian has joined
in the call for a quarantine and
industrial convention of the
Southern States to be held at
Chattanooga on the 9th of Novem
ber, and at the proper time he
will name a list of delegates to
represent this State at the gather
ing.
The convention will undoubted
ly bo one of the greatest ever held
in the South. Subjects of the
most vital importance to the wel
fare of this section are to be dis
cussed, and the objects are fully
set forth in the following call
signed by the governors of twelve
States:
“In the attempt that has been
made by various cities, towns and
communities in the South to pro
tect themselves from the dread
ravages of yellow fever, the most
strenuous and at times the most
unreasonable, unnecessary and
burdensome measures have been
adopted, measures that not only
tended to cripple and destroy bus
iness and commerce, but which re
flected on the very instincts of
our common humantv, and be
came a reproach to civilization it
self. It is evident, therefore, that
some uniform system of quaran
tine should be adopted that will
allay the apprehensions of the
people and minimize the dangers
resulting from an outbreak of this
disease. This is necessary if we
should save our land from the de
moralizing and brutalizing ten
dencies of a panic-inspired quar
antine.
“Again, there are coming into
the United States at the present
time a larger number of foreign
immigrants than ever before in our
country’s history. Among these
are great masses who are wholly
undesirable and whom it will be
impossible to assimilate with our
institutions. There is apparently
a desire or tendency to briDg
many of these undesirable immi
grants to Southern ports and also
to distribute them from Northern
centers into the South.
“The South will welcome de
sirable immigrants from any and
all lands, but it has already racial
problems of such gravity that no
others should be invited until
proper safeguards are provided in
advance of their coming.
“For the foregoing reasons,
therefore, the undersigned, hav
ing only the interests and welfare
of the South at heart, hereby is
sue this, our call, for a Southern
conference on immigration and
quarantine, to be held in the city
of Chattanooga, Tenn., on Nov. 9
and 10, 1905; and we designate
the following persons as those ex
pected to compose and participate
in this conference: Governors of
the Southern States, members of
congress, commissioners of agri
culture, mayors of cities, one rep
resentative from national, State,
county or.city boards of health,
one representaitve from each rail
road system, preferabty the gen
eral immigration agent; the edi
tor, publisher or proprietor of
newspapers, and not more than
five representatives from each
commercial organization in the
South. All parties thus designat
ed may consider themselves fully
authorized under this call to aid
in furthering its objects, and are
requested to co-operate with us in
making the same what it should
be.” _
A Negro’s Brave Act.
Waynesboro, Sept. 21.—An un
known negro was the means yes
terday of averting what otherwise
might have proved an appalling
wreck on the Mobile and Uhio
Railroad. The operator at this
place received orders for No. 4,
the north-bound passenger train,
due here at 1 o’clock p. m., to
meet the south-bound local freight
at Boyce, a way station without a
telegraph office six miles north of
Waynesboro. Being greatly rush
ed with business, the assistant
operator in charge forgot to de
liver the orders to the passenger
here, and as a result it went
through Boyce at full speed. Af
ter the train had left the operator
thought of the order, but too late.
He then wired Shubuta to hold
the freight, but Shubuta answered
the freight had been gone some
time and was beyond recall. It
was at this point, when wreck and
ruin seemed inevitable, that a ne
gro stepped in and averted the
impending doom. No one knows
who he was or what his business
near the railroad, but when the
trains were approaching each oth
er, running on regular time, on a
curve, this negro took in the situ
ation, ran to meet the freight, and
after seeing it had heeded his
warning and was coming to a stop
ran down the track and signaled
the passenger. The two engines
were witbin three feet of each
other when they came to a stop.
As soon as he saw his purpose
was accomplished the negro left
before being identified. The op
erator sent in his resignation at
once. The young man has the
sympathy of the community, as
the people are convinced that
overwork and worry were the
cause of bis oversight, and not
negligence. — Times - Democrat
