As to The Dispensary.
The Towns and Cities Must
Hunt the Tigers.

The Columbia State of to-day. in
an article on the workings Of the Dis
pensary, the plans of Gov. Evans,
and the effect of the law under its
rigid enforcement, says:
ssSince Governor Evans came into
Office he has been relying largely on
the efforts of the towns to carry out
the law, because it is State law.
He has been cutting down the force
of constables steadily, and says he
intends to cut down the force still
further con6ning them to the country.
The object Of this reduction of
force was made apparent yesterday
when the Governor declared that he
would to-day instruct all of his con-
stables to cease looking after blind
tigers in the towns and cities Alto
gether and confne themselves to the
work of looking after the importa.
tion of liquors into the State. He
says, if the towns mean to enforce
the law, as they should enforce it.,
with their police forces they are now
given the golden opportunity. He
intimates that, if they don't enforce
it, they know the consequences.
This is an important move, but it
will scarcely affect Columbia for the
municipal authorities have, it can be
stated on excellent authority, come
nearer preventing the sale of any
liquor, o.her than dispensary liquor
in Columb::a, than all the constables
could do.
Governor Evans and the State
Board of Control intend at meeting
to be held this week to issue instruc-
tons to have all the new dispensaries
opened throughout the State, that
the law allows. The Governor has
already declared that the dispensary
Is bow on self-sustaining basis, and
everything possible, it seems, is to
be done to make it paying concern
The Governor yesterday remarked
that he finds that the police of
Charleston are enforcing the law.
The State board Of control is to
meet this week to elect a successor
to Commissioner Traxler as State
LIQUOR commissioner. There seems
to be no doubt bnt that Col. Mixson,
the present superintendent, Will be
the man.
The board will also very likely
select patent stopper to be used in
corking bottles securely, thus doing
away with the use of the sealing
wax, the smell of which 90 many
object to.
The dispensary mas been making a
handsome profit ont of seized liquors.
They are stamped ''contraband" sent
cut and sold at comparatively cheap
rates.
Some of the leading ex-liquor deal.
ers of Columbia say they believe the
dispensary system has come to stay a
coed while in shis State and they are
preparing to leave the State. There
is every indication that about forty
persons, including the families of the
ex-liquor men and their employees and
employees families, will leave the
State in the next thirty days.

Well, mine does. think there

better, and the next day the very

ing"
1t is. Sometimes get 80 vexed

him."
And that never is pleasant"
should say not. Pm sure I'd
rather be anything else than a scold,
bnt some husbands actually drive
their wives to it. Pve been mar
ried ten years and sometimes [ al
most fear if he doesn't improve he
will have my temper utterly
spoiled"
"Pve been married dozen years
and never had any such trouble.n
Maybe your husband is an ex-
Ception?"
No; he's only average as mar
ried men 60"
Wasn't he ever forgetful ?n
He was at first, but | cured him
of it,"
Gracious, l thought it was in
curable."
"Oh, no. You can cure him ca
silly if you will use my remedy"
Pm sure I'll only be too glad to.

Never ask him to get anything
for you. Get it yourself. He has
enough to think about without being
errand boy.

and remained silent for as much as
two minutes.
