Jeseph speidel leaves this evening for
Taylor, Texas, to be sbBent for several
weeks. He has business interests there
In connection with two OF Wheeling'a
former citizens, Messrs. Curran Mendel
and Crawford Booth, who are prosper
Gus and influential parties in that com.
munity. Taylor has greatly improved
since Mr.. Mendel settled there, as a
pioneer, twenty years ago, and was
followed at o later day by Mr.. Booth
Mr.. Sam Pra,her, Tom Mcclure and
other Wheeling citizens. The late Capt
John Mclnra was quite an extensive
owner OF real estate there OF the time
OF his death, and his purchases are now
greatly enhanced in price. Mr.. Speidel
is president Of q bank there, managed
by Messr6. Mendel and Booth.

south CarsIins Dispensary.

Capt. Geo. w. Lloyd, of New
Rochelle, N. Y, sends us the fol-
lowing for publication:
Another South Carolina question
deserves a word in passing. 1t
seems to have been taken for grant
ed throughout the north that the
South Carolina State Dispensary
system is a dismal failure. The
people Of South Carolina, outside OF
the old liquor interest and certain
political circles, have become al.
most unanimous in the opinion that
the system IS q splendid success.
Governor Evans, when in the legis'
lature, was the chief promoter OF
the dispensary law, and now that he
is in the executive chair, he is quite
as staunch In maintaining and en-
forcing the system as was Gov.
Tillman. Railway roadmasters and
other men familiar with conditions
throughout the state are enthusi-
astic in their account of the good
effects that the law has already pro.
duced. Disorder and drunkenness
have decreased to a remarkable ex-
tent; and whereas the negro labor.
err was accustomed to spend his
weeks earnings in carousing on
Saturday night, and Sunday. he is
spending more upon his family, or
else saving his money to buy land
Then ten or twelve state dispens-
aries in the city OF Charleston,
which has taken the place of scores
of hundreds of saloons, are as open
ly conducted and as orderly as any
drug store, and are absolutely clos
ed at shutdown. The effect upon
the quiet and order of the city has
been too Transforming to admit OF
any denial. Reports from country
towns throughout the state are to
the effect that the closing Of the
old bar-rooms in favor Of the new
dispensaries has been attended with
results that have converted almost
every good citizen to belief in the
present system. In view of the
widely-circulated reports in dispar
agement of the South Carolina dis
pensaries, these facts ought to b
given a wide publicity.-From "Tht
Progress of the World" May Re
view Of Reviews.
