OPEN AGAIN FOR BUSINESS.

COLUMBIA, 8. O., Aug. 1.-The dispen- saries opened again this morning through out the state, but nowhere was there any trouble. People paid little attention to the matter. Tue only change noticeable was that the dispensaries added to the number of saloons already open. There is a taclt understanding that Governor Tillman will give the saloon men fifteen days in which to dispose of their stock. It is understood that he will after that time notify them that they must absolutely quit business, and will instruct constables to see that the law is enforced. Under these circum- stances the saloons are still doing business unmolested, and the dispensaries made but few sales today. No one has been em- ployen in the state dispensary except a suf- ficient force to ship any orders coming from county dlspensaries. The stock ready for shipment in bottles amounts to 800 bar rels, which will last some time.
