The constables have been fearful OF
the consequence of their rash deed

attorney for the plaintiffs, appeared
in court and began the present action
against them. They felt that they
were hoping against hope when As
sistant Attorney General Townsend

The otel Privileges.

Witb the early enactment of new
dispeosary it is noe surprising that
inaccuracies hould creep in. but it is
surprising at full half section
should be id brporased that is clearly in
cop.raven.io3 Of the State Constitution.
The recent o} Hers issued by the gover-
nor TO the constables in Charleston to
the effect shas all hotels having the spe.
oial privilege granted by the State
board Of ceMrol must be stopped from
selling liquors after s o'clock 10 the
evening Shows the unconssitutionality
Of part ic the act so pIaiuly that all
can understand it.
The Constitution provides that alco-
bolie liquors shall be sold only between
sun rise and sun set l. was under
this provision that Governor Ellerbe
issued has instruction to put stop to
the hotels in Charleston selling at
night.
Secticn 81 Of the act passed at the
last session of the legislature provides
that the State board Of control shall
have the power, upon a proper show
ing, and under such rules as they may
adopt, to exempt hotels where tourist
or health seekers resort, from being
considered nuissuces or as violating
this act. by reason of any maosger OF
such hotels dispensing liquors bought
from the dispensayy. by the bottle.
either nigh, or day but before any
such exemption shall be graoted, the
State beard Of coosrol shall require the
nar.ger of such hotel to give good
and Sufficient boud in the penal sum OF
SS, 600. conditioned for the Observance
of all t1e rules. regulations. aod re
s,riesioDs prescribed aud imposed by the
said board, and with ali the require
meots of this act. aud is shall be law
full for any constable or officer thus EN-
ployed under this act to enter such
hotel AID search it for cootrabaod
liquors at aoy time. day OF night, With
out warrant .
The State board under this proVi-
sion. has granted the privileges therein
named The governor has ordered the
aighs Gales stopped. BY some it is
argued tha. the board should take no
coenisance Of the Constitution. but go
ahead. and obey the act creating the
board
This is very interesting question.
but It seems that the governor is- not
going to follow the dispeIsary Ia" in
this particular when the Constitution
speaks to the contrary. JUST how the
attorney general will reconcile these
swo differences remains to be seen =
