Smallpox in Chester County.

Yesterday report came to
town that a colored woman, Geo.
BabCock's wife, who lives out on
the Saluda road, neal the two
mile post, had something like
smallpox. Drs. Pryor and Me.
Connell saw the patient and thought
she had smallpox. DR. w J w
Cornwell, of Cornwell who had
had the disease and is regarded
good authority, was called and
pronounced it genuine case of
continent small pox.
The origin of this case is traced
to a case on the Lancaster road a
short distance beyond the city
limits, which the attending physi-
clan pronounced chickenpox. This
case came from Newberry.
Another case is reported on the
Wylie place, about five miles In
the country.
These cases are in charge of the
county authorities and will be
carefully insulated and guarded. -

SMALLPOX SITUATION.
Some Timely Advice to Out
siders-Conditions Greatly
Improved in columbia.
Columbia Record.

Columbia Record.
1t might he well to turn aside
for a mo nent from the troubles
with Spain and consider the trou-
bles with smallpox, especially as
there is good news to announce in
the smallpox line.
81 do not hesitate to say"
said Chairman Boozer today,
"that Columbia> is today the
healthicst locality in the State so
far as smallpox is concerned. We
have the advantage of having gone
through the epidemic and are
therefore immune and safer than
any other community. Vaccine
tion and investigation has been
so thorough and complete that the
town need entertain no further
fears for the pest, and visitors
need not be the least tinid. We
are community of immunes.
1.-The only way for u commu.
nifty to rid itself of the possibility
of smallpox epidemic is to thor
oughly vaccinate. This means
not only avoids bad results to
commerce, but it is less expensive.
Let every community enforce
vaccination, and we will hear no
more cf the bug bear smallpox. "

If the question were license or
dispensary, we would vote dis
pensary. We hope never to see
open bar rooms in South Garolinu
again. But, license is out of the
question. The return of the old
bar-room is made impossible with
out change in our State consti-
tuition. 1t is now a choice be.
tween prohibition and dispensary.
Nhe cause of prohibition is Just,
a righteous one. No opponent t.
it will deny it. The strongest ad,
vocate of the dispensary admit,
that prrhibitionists are right il
principle and allege that pro
hibition is the goal to which the,
are aiming but it is not yet tim,
to take the step. We do moi
agree in this. There is no tim,
like the present and there is n,
reason why the State Cannot en-
force a prohibition law just as
cnforces the other laws of TIN,
State.

In the prohibition column of
the Newberry Herald and News
the question is asked: "can a
christian vote for the dispensary?'
A christian can ask Gods bless
ing on anything that is in itself
good, honorable, elevating or en-
nobling. Is the sale of whiskey
rs beverage good! Is it eleva-
ting! Is it cnnoblingl Is it right
for state to engage in it any
more than for an indiridual to do
it? Can a christian pray "'Thy
kingdom come; Thy will be done
in earth as it is done in Heaven, >
and vote an obstruction in the
way of his Heavenly Fathers S
will. We think not. The true
christian will vote as he prays.

Y9g AANgAaYEN ARNaRn,
Knows About Smallpox.

Mr. Tom Spencer, of Hickory
Grove, was in Yorkville last week
in attendance on the Union meet
ing of the York Baptist associa,
ton here. 1t was while the small
poX panic, already reported, was
at its height, anda as Mr. Spencer has
had experience with the disease.
he was in position to talk in
terestingly.
1t was during the war that Mr.
Spencer learned something about
smallpox. He was taken prisoner
and sent to the Federal prison at
Fort Delaware. Smallpox was
epedemlc there, and he contracted
the disease.
Speaking of his experience, he
said that for about "a hours, dur
ING the breaking out of the erup
ton, he suffered tortures. espe-
cially from an Unsuitable thirst;
but he was not allowed to
drink water. Here, in fact, is
one OF the secrets OF successful
treatment Of the disease. Water
brings out great blisters which
develop into the sores that cause
the pitting, and Is to be avoided
rs far as possible. The doctor al.
lowed him to keep little ice in
his mouth; bat that was all. Then
again he was held down to liobt
diet. After pine days he became
convalcscent, and after 16 days he
was discharged as cured. The
real suffering he underwent was
during the "A hours referred to.
He is pitted little on one arm,
but not much elsewhere.
There is no doubt that Mr.
Spencer had smallpox and that he
knows all about the disease. He
Is perfectly reliable man. After
his recovery he was sent to the
hospital to nurse smallpox pa
tients. There were about 200 of
them at Fort Delaware. The
treatment consisted principally of
regulating the supply of water,
providing II light diet and mutfling
the hands of the patients so they
could not scratch themselves. OF
the 200 patients in the hospital
only 10 died. All had the best
of treatment and every attention.
MIR Spencer does not think that
smallpox is anything to be at all
desired; hut if properly treated
ne does not think 1T nearly so
dreadful as most people seem to
think.
Whether or not it is smallpox
that is now going the rounds, he
did not pretend to say. He does
not know. -Yorkville Enquirer.

If it be true, as claimed by
some advocates of the dispensary,
that the sentiment of the christian
people of the State is in favor of
it III preference to p, ohibition
then tho dlspensary has wrought
IN era of christian degener.cy
much to be deplorcd. Can it be
that christian men who were pro-
hibitionists six years ago have
been converted to the sale of
whiskey ny the dispensary law!
Is there Il man whose christian
principles prompted him to vote
for prohibition six years ago who
will now vote for the sale of whis
key as a beverage-even by the
State. If so, then the dispensary
is IA worse evil than we ever
dreamed it was. 1t is working a
compromise of christian principles
to the perpetuation of the greatest
evil of the day-the sale of whis-
key as beverage. Away with
it.
