The Dispensary is the Best Solution of the
Whiskey Question.
Edifwr The liarning Times:
We have from the conception
and enactment of the dispensary
law till the present time believed
this is the best solution of the
whiskey question that has ever
been devised in South Carolina,
and though a good solution, yet
the dispensary has been assailed
on every hand by an element of
snarling malcontents who has
never failed to openly encourage
the violation of the dispensary
law, and who has never lost an
opportunity to throw every ob
stacle in the pathway of the dis
pensary and the dispensary law
to bring it into disrepute.
In 1898 the ex-barroom keepers
and a large following of the
Prohibitionist. chafing under
the popularity of the dispensary,
joined forces in a mighty politi
cal effort, for the overthrow of
the dispensary in the election of
that year.
The result of that election was
a defeat of the Prohibitionists
and their allies by a majority of
between three and five thousand
votes.
In 1900 the Prohibitionists and
their supporters was again de
feated. This time by a majority
of more th'an 14000. This last
defeat completely disheartened
and demoralized the opponents
of the dispensary so much so
that they made no further effort
to openly measure political arms
with the friends and supporters
of the dispensary.
With all these decisive politi
cal defeats against them, the
enemies of the dispensary have
kept up a desultory- fre on the
dispensary by making accusation
against the persons elected and
appointed to manage the dispen
sary affairs under the dispensary
law. The enemies of the dis
pensary charge the Board of
Directors of the dispensary at
Columbia of being grafters and
dishonest and men who are run
ning the affairs of the dispensary
to their own advantage and
gain, and still yet, there is not
one of these accusers who has
expressed any willingness or de
sire to enter any court house in
South Carolina and testify
against anyone or all of the ic
cused.
The gentlemen: composing the
board of directors of the dispen
sary at Columbia were presented
to the legislature at its last ses
sion as gentlemen, as honest
men and as men of integrity, and
by an honorable legislature elect
ed to the positions they are now
filling.
To quiet the clammorings of
the office seeking Prohibitionists
disgruntled Dispensarites and
enemies of the dispensary gen
erally the legislature at its last
session appointed a committee of
'investigation to meet at some
time during the present year to
investigate the dispensary af
fairs of the State so as to ascer
tain if there is any truth in the
accusations that has been made
from, time to time against the
managers of the dispensary gen
erally. This committee has
already commenced its labors by
investigating the Spartanburg
county dispensary affairs. The
committee commenced its tri
bunal, summoned informers and
after a very tiresome and pains
taking hearing adjoarned to
Columbia to continue the inves
tigation until the Spartanburg
county dispensary again has
been disposed of. So far the
only witnesses that have testified
in this case and at the hearing is
disgruntled dispensarites on one
side and dispensary incumbents
on the other. The investiga
tions of the committee in the
Spartanburg affair so far has
revealed nothing that is conclu
sive and satisfactory to the pub
lic, but to the contrary, the
whole matter has beezi simmered
down to a question of veracity
and veracity only.
There seems that the only
complaint against county dis
pensers, and some only, is that
some of them has omitted to en
ter the name of the purchaser,
the amount and the kind of li
quor bought, on a book as the
dispensary law requires,.- We
believe that no county dispenser
has omitted to comply with this
requirement of the dispensary
law, intentionally to violate the
law. All impartial and - fair
minded and reasonable persons
never hold anyone accountable
for the commission of a deed
but for the intention when comn
Imitting the deed. Violating any
law unintentionally is no viola
tion of law at all and no one but
a fool would so consider the
case.
If the investigations reveal
the guilt of the dispensary offi
cials, put them out, put better
men in and let the solution re
mamn.
We will now introduce the
Brice Local Option legislation as
we remember it to the public
and our views on the same and
Three Jurors Cured of Cholera Morbus with
One Small Bottle of Chamberlain's Colic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy.
Mr. G. W. Fowler, of Hightower,
Ala., relates an experience he had
while serving on a- petit jury in mur
der case at Edwardsville, county seat
of Cleburne county, Alabama. He says:
"While there I ate some fresh meat
and some souse meat and it gave me
cholera morbus in a very severe form.
I was never more sick in my life and
sent to the drug store for a certain
cholera mixture, but the druggist sent
me a bottle of Chamberlain's Colic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy instead
saying that he had what I sent for, but
that this medicine was so much better
he would rather send it to me in the
fix I was in. I took one dose of it and
was better in five minutes. The second
dose cured me entirely. Two fellow
jurors were afflicted in the same man
ner and one small bottle ::ured the
three of us." For sale by The R. B.
Loryea Drug Store. Isaac M. Loryea.
after so doing, we will leave th(
question for every person to set
tle for themselves and when af.
ter doing so every one are al
liberty to form their own conclu
sions, and if necessary in thc
future to act accordingly.
The Brice Bill provides, that
whenever one fourth of the
qualified voters of a county sign
a petition asking a county super
visor to order an election to set
tle the question as to whethei
the sale of whiskey shall be leg
alized or prohibited in said coun
ty. A majority voting eithei
way settles the question in re
gard to whiskey ->r four years,
by the operations of this bill, in
the county or counties so voting.
Cherokee, Pickens and Union
counties have already had their
say and are now Prohibition
counties in name. but in fact, we
believe not. We would not give
a nickle for all the prohibition
that could be mustered in coun
ties of this State bordering on
the North Carolina line.
There is a few more counties
that is taking steps to vote out
the sale of whiskey within their
borders by the Brice Local Op
tion Bill.
Local option has been claimed
and thoroghly democractic in
every feature, and this may be
if all matters pertaining to local
option are in accordance with
democratic principles, otherwise
local option are undemocratic.
The Brice local option bill is
undemocratic for the simple rea
son that under certain provis
ions of the bill a certain number
of free democratic white men
are not allowed to vote.
If our recollection serves us
right. it was charged after the
election was held in Pickens to
vote out the dispensary under
the Brice great democratic bill,
hat two hundred white demo
rats and taxpayers were not al
owed to vote, upon the poor
plea that they were not qualified
voters of the county, by not be
ing able to produce registration
,ertificates of qualification.
It was also cha-rged that to
get the required number of
names to warrant the county
upervisor of Pickens in order
ing the election on the whiskey
:uestion, that there was names
f unqualified voters, after their
manner of reckoning, on the list
of petitioners.
If an election was held in
very county in South Carolina
by counties, under the Brice
bill, it is claimed by authority
known to be good. that there
would be twenty-five thousand
white democratic voters that
-ould not vote. Democrats, what
lo you think of the Brice Local
Dption Legislation as democracy
and as a democratic measure?
Heaven save South Carolina
Erom Brice and from Brice's de
mocracy
We think the-people operating
ander the Brice democratic local
ption bill will have their fatigue
mnd trouble for nothing in the
ittle one-sided game that they
'ave been playing in a few of
he counties in having things
their own way in running rough
shod over the rights of others
in this off-election year backed
nly by the infamous Brice Leg
islation.
Yes, they will have it all to go
ver again next year, for -the
riends .and the supporters of
he dispensary will make the
issue plainly next year, Prohi
bition or Dispensary, and will
see to it in the next primary
election that every white man
who is a democrat, shall have
the right to vote on a question
that is as much his question as
it is the question of Brice or any
of the followers of Brice.
The Prohibitionists of the
State, or the more . prominent
ones at least, are doing the
ground-mole work and a still
hunt for voters in this business
s they may think, but with all
this cunning, their movements
are being kn'own, and they, next
year, will have to face the issue
nd face it squarely.
The mouth-pieces for Prohi
bition in all parts of the State
re eternally prating about car
ying the State for Prohibition
by ten thousand majority in the
primary election in 1892, and
that too on the issue of Prohi
bition or open Barrooms, and
yet for more than five years the
leaders of Prohibition have been
ifraid to come out in their true
olors and fight the battle on the
issue of Probihition or Dispen
ary.
Clarendon with the most of
the other counties of the State,
as yet, have developed no symp
boms of the Brice farce and we
hope this indifference will con
inue and that Clarendon will
aot intentionally take this
3urse to vote out the dispensary
ad by an action of this kind
put Clarendon in the column
with Cherokee, Pick-ens and Un
ion a column of ridicule and
helplessness, nicknamed Prohi
bition.
In a little more than twelve
months the command will be
given for every white democrat
in South Carolina to stand up
and be counted and then we will
see where Brice and his cohorts,
the disfranchiser of democrats
will be.
The Dispensary is the best
solution of the whiskey question,
while the Brice Local Option
Legislation is a political trick
and a farce, undemocratic, and
no solution at all.

whether lobsters remain awake all day

The Missouri Is a Dusty River.
"The dust blows out 'of the Missouri
river," asserted Bob Burdette. "It is
the only river in the world where the
dust blows in one great column out of
the river bed. The catfish come up to
the surface to sneeze. The Missouri
river is composed of six parts sand and
mnd and four parts water. The natu
ral color of the water Is seal brown, but
when it rains for two or three days
and the river gets pretty wet it changes
to a dark iron gray. A long rain will
make this river so thin that it can eas
