THE STATE To SELL ALL THE SCHOOL Books.
President Il. b. Craighcad has dropoed
into line with the Reformers most readily.
In fact rs natural as though he had been one
of them from the first He steps to the
front with n plan for the handling Of the
school books of the State, which If adopted
will knock the booksellers out in the first
round.
Ills plan rs stated to The State reporter
yesterday is for the State to establish a de
rository in each county under the control OF
the county -chool commissioner, who is 10
sell the books 10 tie patrons at only 5 per
cent above cost price. This he estimates will
prove saving to the poor people of the State
Of thousands annually.
The plan will be submitted to the State
Board of Examiners for their approval and
recommendation to the next Legislature for
enactment into law. Whether the board
will. approve or the Legislature enact into
!aw or not remains TO be seen. If the
scheme meets With Governor Tillman's ap-
prevail and it no doubt will, all will be well
with its future.

of running it, but Of these facts the reader

ALL Ror AND BosII.-The idle talk thai
some of the Republican journals of the State
and county are indulging In is enough to
make the heart Of Democrat tired. They
know full well that 10 their party alone is
the credit due for the financial condition of
the country to-day. With unwise legislation
extravaganza in the management of the gov
ernment and n billiondollar Congress, the
condition of the country at The present
time is only what might bc expected and is
not at all due to the fact that Democrat
has displaced Republican ut Washington.
1t is idle talk OH tho part of the Republican
press and their leaders.
1t took Ilarrison's administration four
years to produce the present financial situa-
ton and any sensible man knows that it is
expecting too much of President Cleveland to
rebuild in three months what it took the Re-
publicans four years to make. Besides, it is
an old axiom that it j. much easier to
destroy than construct. We now have the
Presidents message before u.s. 1t is straight
TO the point and let not Congress waste time
in useless display of ora'ory. Action, and
that quickly, Is what the country expects
and what it must have Last year the pco-
pie saw the impending crisis and they knew
if they re elected Harrison ii would be ten
times worse than IT j. nos. They bad great
confidence in Cleveland. lhcy elected him
and he will save the country .-BUsINEss, m

Mill is progressing smoothly md satisfac

mg of about $4,000 bricks Oh the brick yard
by the rain last Monday. On Tuesday the

the nicely formed bricks from the machine
to the yard were busily employed carrying
them back again, but without shape or form.
1t only took Mr.. Rodger Two duys TO repair
the injury done by the rains.

Governor Tillman says he sees no reason
why MS soon as things get into working
order this month, the county dispensaries
cannot sell at retail 10000 gallons month.
lie says under the former license plan the
retail sales amounted to over q million gal
Ions. He says he has always contended that
the amount of revenue depended entirely on
the number of dispensaries established. He
says he does not now think under the condi-
tion of things considering the number of dis
pensaries established the State will max e
that half million of dollars profit for the first
six months, but he thinks the profits will be
that great for the first twelve months, when
the system is in full operation. He says the
operation of the law has reduced the con-
sumption of liquor in this State by one-third,
and probably more. The operation of the
dispensary law in Edgefeld, where he has
closely observed it, indicates that there is a
lsrge shortage in the consumption Of liquor,
and he says he is glad it. Governor Till
man concludes thus: "Conside ring the
number OF rocks, stumps, injunctions, ETC.,
that we have been stumbling over in the
last thirty days, l consider that the dispen
sary system is already bowling success
