not seriously hurt.

Love is not love that alters when 1t alteration
finds
That is one of the sublmest lines in all
literature. 1t is the final definition Of love
by the worlds greatest reader Of the human
mind, Shakespeare. Nearly all women
who truly love, love in this sublime way
Men seldom do.
Worlan's most glorious endowment is
the power to awaken and hold the pure
and honest love Of worthy man. When
she loses it and still loves OIL, no one in
the wide world can know the heart agony
she endures The woman who suffers
from weakness and arrangement of her
special woranly organism soon loses the
power to sway the heart OF a man. Her
general health suffers and she loses her
good looks, her attractiveness, her amia-
bility and her power and prestige as a
woman. DR.. r. V. Pierce of Buffalo. NY,
with the assistance Of his staff of able ply
sicians, has prescribed for many thousands
scientific remedy for women's ailments 1t
is known as Dr. Picrce's Favorite Prescrip-
ton 1t is positive specific for all weak
nesses. diseases, disorders, displacemcnts,
irregularities, and debilitating drains pc
culiar to women. 1t purihes regulates,
strengthens and heals. Medicine dealers
sell it, and no honest dealer will advise
you to accept substitute that he may
make little larger profit.

nothing against the other candidates
which could be construed as harmful
except that mentioned above. l am
under no obligation to Governor Ell
lerbe; have asked him for nothing
aud be has doue nothing for me ex
cept to make Governor in whose
record am proud. The Editor OF
this paper is not responsible for that
editorial. It was conceived and
put in type by me, as assistant
editor, without his knowledge and
he never saw it until the Wednesday
of its appearance in print; therefore,
he could not have possibly sung Eli
lerbe's praises" for having "done
him" the Editor "a personal favor,
and he who says otherwise willfully
uttcrs what he knows to be malici-
ously false. 1t is brutally cowardly
to be continuously referring to an
unfortunate affair in which the
public now has no concern and
none but a person with low aid
mean principles would be caught do
ing such dirty work.
The only grievance that the News
man can find with the administration
Of Governor Ellelbe, is the appoint
ment of State Constables, and I
take it from an article which re-
Gently appeared in the News that
the constables have trod very near
somebody's toes near Chaplin. 1t is
the wounded bird that hutters-the
kicked dog that whines, and if the
constables had turned the search
light on little stronger another per
son beside that poor negro, for
whose misfortune Editor Beard
seems to take such a great interest,
would have been caught in the
mashes of the dag net.

enough free advertising, which, judg-
ing from the misstatements the News

The PEOPLES CANDIDATE.


Only on rare occas ions aud urder
unususl circum 5tanccs does the DIS
patch take sides for or against any
candidate who seeks election in a
primary election From the trend
Of public events aud the low plane
upon which the State campaign has
been pitched, the Dispatch believes
that the time has arrived when every
rood aid true man should use his
Influence in elevating and purifying
the political conditions in our State.
Any fair minded man whose judg-
ment is unwarpped by prejudice and
who has kept up with the progress
of the campaign, as published in the
daily papers, must admit that the
present canvass, instead Of being a
campaign of education, has degen-
Grated into one of SANDER and abuse
While the manner in which many OF
the candidates are conducting their
campaign may appeal to the vicious
and ignorant, yet the great mass Of
voters repudiate the bitterness and
narshness with which it is being cen
Quoted and consider it an insult to their
intelligence. Gov. Ellerbe, seems to
be the Que upon whom his competi-
tors have trained their guns aud it is
admitted that he has given the State
a clean and clear administration, one
that any South Carolinian can justly
be proul of and even his enimies,
can find no fault with him except in
his appointments. This being true is
there any tangible reason why he
should be retired to the shades Of
private life, simply to make room for
another who gives no assurance that
he will do better?
Governor Ellerbe comes nearer
representing our views on political
questions than any of the other can
didates. He represents the peace
and unity clement and believes that
the time is ripe when factional strife
should cease; that the veal of the
State demands that our people get
together again and with united
effort, bend their energies to the up
building of her varied industries, and
the common interest of the people
was such that it could be better sub
served by a cessation Of bitterness and
strife. Being among those who be-
lieve thus, the Dispatch will here
after use it's influence to elect the
representative Of this policy and that
representative before the people to-
day is w. H. Ellerbe.

THE DIsPENSARY,

Elsewhere in this issue Mr.. ".
N. Wilson gives his views on the
whisky question which is now and has
been from time immemorial agitatiDg
the public mind. The solution of this
problem has engaged the attention
of our wisest statesmen and pro-
foundest philanthropists and nu-
merous systems have been tried for
the curtailment Of it's use, the re-
st1iction of it's sale and the correc-
ton Of the evils which flow from
the immoderate use of alcoholic
liquors with unsatisfactory results.
All men in all times have recognized
tue use of whisky a colossal evil
against the health, morals and peace
of the community in which it is sold
and was, therefore, proper subject
for police regulation and in the ex-
ercise of her police powers the States
by their organic laws are given the
power to regulate or prohibit its
sale as seems most conducive to the
health, morals and peace Of the peo
pie, and in the consideration of this
question this fact should be kept in
mind.
The tavern and open bar systems
have been tried and the abuses COM
mitted under them by the men who
sold liquor aye too fresh in the pub
lie mind to need repeating here. In
der the Tillman administration we
had foretaste of prohibition. Lii
quor was sold everywhere, by whom
soever would, with impunity and no
attempt was made by prohibitionists
to enforce the prohibition law then
prevailing. Drunkenness was preva-
lent and the people were almost de.
moralizod. We oppose the high Ii.
cense system because we believe that
it means a return to the open bars
in another form but with increased
evils, and, because it creates a mo-
nopoly that will prove disturbing
element in politics.
The dispensary system is the only
tangible and practical solution of the
question. Imperfect as it now is
it has reduced drunkenness to per-
ceptible degree, the reason for this
belief need not be stated at this
time. True the law needs many al
terations and amendments. We
know not as to the correctness of
the assertion that wornout preachers
and ex-saloon keepers are locked
arms in the fight against the dispen-
sary but is strange coincident that
we find preachers advocating the
Cbi!d's plan, which proposes to es
tablish bar rooms in every incorpo
rated town under the name of drug
stores, and ex saloon keepers, many
of whom have violated the dis
pensary law, are also fighting the
dispensary. If the law was carried
out as originally intended it would
be great agent in correcting the
evils Of intemperarce, and to this
end we should all join in united
effort to strengthen the law by max
ing the needed amendments, and in
the meantime see that the present law
is properly enforced both by the dis
pensers and the ex liquor sellers.
many of whom are responsible in a
large measure for the prowling of
the blind tiger and tie rowdyism
and drunkenness which follow in his
