The law relative to the establishintg and (th removia of dispensaries in (hid State is publishet olsewhere in this paper. It can be vted on and be kept running or shut up at the will of the people. We want everA person in this county to read the law and then sign the petitions, or not., as he seos lit, auld if the election i ordered, theni to g- and voto as lie seen fit and as his ciascionco dictates When you haIvo hlisoe 111 tho .ou have doJo 3o)r whole (u11y 111 no man ociaiy ought against you. There are tp itionn being circuln ed asiling for ani ecction on thit questio ; Runny are signing , thewt. Lot us ask yu to weigh well tlte questiont. If volt sign 1i11d thiei thien you atle wrong, let : our nitame stait: on the petitioni antd show you art willing for the poop!o to decilo atnd riuk; you nChi sign the 1.etiion oil this ground, that you atre willi, g tt maojurity should rlle. This newspaper would inot be worthy of the nieun of a lowspaper if it did not stand up for what it btd lieved to be riglt and the best inter ests of tite couuty at i hgo. It be lieves in tle Jeffersouian dcclcinue of "a government of the people, by the people and for the people," and to have this all the people are entitled to a say so-not just a few. Because of free speech and free ballot was the primary plan of elections inau gurated. The editor, personall3, is quito differett from hti character as at newspaper man, While personi ally he might be in favor of the dispon. sary, as editor lie is not suoh a big fool that. he intends to brook thu will of the people. They are entitled to a say so in tho law making power ol the State, noud as editor hie proposes to stand for their rights, regardless of who it makes or breaks, megard less of friend or foe, regardless of his own, person~al interests, beca use he believes it right. If the cause is defeated he will gracefully bow to the will of the people and humbly submit to the inevitable, lie is nto afraid of starving, be the result what it-may. The dispensary was fastened int this town over thte protest of her citi zens- they fought thon for what thtey believed to be right; then) how can thtey argme to keep the thing here? There is a (ebange of heart, or at least oif front, some4whiere, andI some body haus shtown inconisistenicy. TJ.he cry cf lax is nothibg. T1here is mtontey at the bottom of it ail. Some w ho f~ator the dispc nsary (and they rtavor it because of the revenue) have taken the bot tle from their sonl'a lips--yet they aro nuot williog to ftur ther renove templittou from him Somue say I would vote to remnove it out of the tatt; amn in favor of legis hating it o it of ixistene, but as we can't do that let's keep it in Pien8. How~ (10 thevy know they cannot re move it out of the State? Have tlhe y ever t ied? The Stato has foiuud it. to be too good a thing to voluttarily 'io away wvith it. Should the people rise up in their might thev couldt wipe it out. All the Stato ineeds is to. bwo thtt th e counttiy, drity, are determined t) remove it 1rom their bordmis, then it will ugo. flw IC ao pl'oposo to reconcile your con* sciencoe by voting to keep a dispenusary in P'ckens, let next year you will vote if r Mi ai'til) F..

The following editorial ap peared 'in esterday's Spartan burg Herald: The .voters of Spartanburg county are to have an oppor tunity in the near future to de cide for themselves whether cr not the dispensary shall remain in this city. It is fairly and squarely "up to them." A pe tition is being circulated, and it it secures the necessary num ber of signatures-one fourth of the qualified voters, an elec tion will be held, and we firm ly believe that the dispensary will be voted out. There is a solemn moral obligation con fronting the citizens when this petition is presented, and the issue should be met without evasion. The institution has friends in Spartanburg, as is the case where it operates throughout the State-it is powerful, mo nopolizing, and seeks to fetter the legislation of South Caro lina with rivets of bribery and corruption, A great whoop ,nd slogan will be raised about the benefits and the sums paid in as "atet profits," for the schools and county expenses. It will be asked why kill the goose laying the golden egg? But the fowl is corrupt, the, money comes as the tribute of the drunkard, c ebau c lie e, worthless sot to t he court of rum. The pains and aches and pangs of the forsaken wife, the neglected mother, the aban doned child, the worthless life, all are stamped as clearly on this money as the image of the goddess of liberty on the silver half dollar. Let the people have a voice in the matter, and the dispen sary's days are nuimbered. HOW IT IS WORKING. From the Gafeuey Ledger.
