The Criterion Magazine.
1t is pleasure to chronicle the increasing
chances of success of the Criterion indie
pendent Theater The many active forces
and talents engaged in furthering the en-
terprise are not being daunted by the yari-
Gus handicaps in the way of faint praise,
sneers and shoulder-shrugs that are being
imposed in this and that quarter. Rehears-
ais of Ibsen's John Gabriel Borkmann
are progressing very satisfactorily under
Mr.. Il. ]. Henley's direction, and the piece
proves dramatic even beyond the expecta-
ton of those who have judged 1t from the
book. The programme, detailing the origin
and intentions of this present movement,
verbally and pictoridlly. is proceeding TO
speedy issue, and will presently be purchaS-
able at all leading bookshops in town, at a
nominal price. To purchasers of tickets, OF
course, this programme Will be entirely
free.
Much encouragement is coming from the
most unexpected quarters. 1t is evident that
the community harborS an even greater de-
sire for the new than had been hoped. Sucn
letters are reaching the Criterion daily as
make one distinctly optimistic. Some or
them, indeed, are more than merely KIND,
they are helpful. Among others, Miss Jula
Arthur, certainly a most ambitious ana
talented young star, has promised TO lend
her own charming exertions to one or the
one-act plays TO be given as the second pro-
duction of the Criterion Independent The
alter. Mr.. Daniel F'rohman, manager of the
Lyceum Theater; Herr Conried, manager of
the Irving place Theater, and Mr.. Harrison
Grey Fiske editor of the Dramatic Mirror,
have all been good enough to promise such
aid as the wide activities of each of them
in various departments of the drama make
possible Society, too, is showing no slight
interest in the matter, and to this element
the undoubted vogue of Ibsen is proving an
evident attraction.
Play-goers should mark Nov IS very def
nitely Oh their calendars The afternoon of
that day will give New York morsel that
will not only prove palatable, but will, as
the Germans say, taste of more 1t would
be strange indeed If the combined efforts of
such men as are interested in the Criterion
Independent Theater did not achieve d per-
Torrance that will be memorable in the an
mails of New YOrk's theatricals.

THE COUNTY BOARD.

The county board of commissioners
will hold its next quarterly meeting in
the office of the supervisor, on next Mon
day, and will have considerable amount
of business to transact.
The meeting referred to will be the first
meeting the board has held since the first
Monday in July. The law provides for
four regular meetings each year, and ex-
ira meetings whenever the same may be
necessary. During last year and year be-
fore, extra meetings were held quite fire.
auently but since that time meetings
have been generally confined to the regu-
lar days prescribed by law and cases OF
urgent necessity.
This change, in the direction of econo-
my, and, it might also be said, efficiency,
has been brought about by the adoption
of a general policy which throws more
responsibility and labor upon the super
visor than formerly. Under the old re-
gime, many comparatively unimportant
matters were left for the disposition OF the
whole board. Now, all matters, especially
of ordinary routine, are in the hands OF
the supervisor, subject to the boards ap
proval at it's regular meetings.
At the meeting next Monday, the prln-
cipal business to be disposed of will be
the auditing of special accounts. 1t is
possible, also, that other business may be
presented but Of this THE ENQUIRER
has no definite information.

THE ENQUIRER begs to extend con-
pratulations to Governor Ellerbe for his
action in removing the metropolitan po-
lice system from Charleston, for doing
away with the state constabnlary, and for
retaining at least two state detectives. In
all of this the governor has acted wisely.
We believe, and have always believed,
that the principal reason for placing Char
lesion under the metropolitan police, was
a political one. Whether or not this is so,
it is certainly fact that the metropolitan
system has never proved one whit more
effective in the suppression of the liquor
business in Charleston, than did the mum
icipal police system. Previous to the re-
cent decisions of Judge Simonton, the
perhaps, was not especially
burdensome but now it is an unnecessary
expense, and its removal has been dicta-
ted by plain common sense. The wis
dom of employing one or more state de-
tectives has been fully justified by exper-
ience, and in deciding to retain at least
two good detectives for regular work and
cases of emergel. y, the governor has
shown that he has given the situation the
closest possible attention. Upon the de-
velopments of Monday, he is entitled to
sincere congratulation.

A Case Will BE Prepared For Federal
Supreme Court.
1t will not be long now before case
involving the main issue in the dispen-
sary fight will be gotten in shape, and
the matter carried to the supreme court
of the United States.
1t is understood that Attorney Gen
eral Barber and Mr.. J. P. Kennedy
Bryan are endeavoring to agree OH a
statement of facts so that the case
can be docketed for the November
term.
The issue to he determined is wheth-
er non. residents have right under the
dispensary act TO sell whisky in any
form in South Carolina.
1t will amount to no more than an
appeal from Judge Simonton's decision
giving dealers in other states the priv
ilege Of appointing agents in this state,
and selling "original packages"
The facts being agreed on, the case
will then be narrowed down to an is
sue of law, and the state authorities
say that they will win the fight.
1t is said that Judge Simonton feels
that he was never more right i'll any
decision he has rendered since he was
appointed a member of the federal
judiciary.
The state authorities, it is stated,
are very anxious to have the question
adjudicated by the highest court in the

litigation can be dispensed with, and
especially because Of the fact that the

A municipal primary in Spartanburg'
last week, resulted in the nomination of
an entirely new board Of aldermen, and
a second race for mayor between Messrs.
Calvert, the present incumbent, and
Floyd. The second primary is to be held
on October 7. How it will result cannot
be foretold; but The Herald is enabled
to give a plausible significance to the re-
suits which have already been deter
mined. Though composed of good men,
generally, majority of the present city
council has not been disposed to take the
public into their confidence. They have
been impressed with the idea that they
were put in office to govern, and that the
public had no right to know what they
did or how they did it. In pursuance of
this idea, sometime back, they invited
the newspaper reporters to leave their
meetings, and gave them to understand
that they would not be expected to attend
again unless sent for. During the same
meeting in which this action was taken,
a resolution of reconsideration was pass
ed but one of the anti-publicity men,
bers put up the argument that if the
council should, after what it had done,
permit the reporters to be present, it
would look like the council had been
bluffed, and majority Of the other men,
bers, losing sight of public duty in the
shadow of an imaginary personal embar-
ra SSH mt, concluded to stand by their
ori ginal action and keep the reporters
out. Realizing as they did that this ac-
ton was directed more at the public than
at themselves, the reporters did not un-
dertake to claim their constitutional rights
in the matter but accepted the decision
of the council in good faith and remained
away. After that there were no more
detailed reports of the proceedings Of the
council, where previously the public was
kept familiar with the individual record OF
each member. Afterward whatever was
good, bad, sensible or silly, was necessa-
rily charged against the whole council,
and the minority suffered with the ma
jority. But that was not all. While the
general public cared nothing about the
personality Of either the council or the
newspapers, still it thought it had right
to know what was being done by its mu-
nicipal representatives, and how. 1t
realized also that the action of the council
in keeping the newspaper reporters out
of the meeting, was saying, in effect, that
the general public had no business to
know what was going on, and this is the
key to the result of the primary. The
council having said that it had no conil-
dence in the public, the public came back
