the election is contained in the following
declarations:
State of South Carolina,
Office of the Secretary of State.
Pursuant to notice and appointment,
the State board of canvassers met in the
office of the Secretary of State, this, the
4th day OF November, 1905, for the pur-
pose of considering the election returns
in the matter of the dispensary election,
held on the Oath day of October, 1908,
for the county of Oconee.
A quorum being present, on motion of
Mr. Jones, the return of the county
board of canvassers was read, which
showed total number of votes cast, 753.
OF which "No dispensary'' received
GOT.
OF which "Dispensary" received SO.
Whereupon, on motion Of Mr.. Jones,
the election was declared and deter
mined in accordance with the return, as
made by the county board of canvassers.
Three of the most important anti.dis-
pensary elections are to be held this
month-those in Greenville, Spartan
burg and Anderson being scheduled.
The order of Judge Klugh, in the Spar
tanhurg matter is taken as matter of
courtesy to lawyers and is not seriously
regarded, and it is not supposed that it
will 10 any way interfere with the hold
ing Of the election at the appointed time.
SCHOOLS AND DRINK MONEY.
Comptroller General Jones will have a
conference with the Attorney General
next week with regard to the distribu-
tion of the dispensary school money.
There are some very important questions
that have arisen in regard to this dis
tribution and from letters received by
the Comptroller General it is evident
that the payment and distribution will
finally get into the Courts.
Under the Constitution, it is necessary
that all deficiencies be made up. This
applies to all counties whether they are
disnensary or not. The surplus, how
ever, under the new law, was not to be
given to those counties voting out the
dispensary. 1t is said that this feature
of the law will be tested. and that the
counties that have voted out the dispen-
sary will demand their share of the pro-
fits for this year up to the time the cleo
tion was held. This means that the
Comptroller will require an itemized
statement from the dispensary as to
when the profits materialized, and if the
point is carried successfully it will mean
that a cpunla pf axparto 1y;ll hoya m ho
employed to figure out the balances.
Under the report last year the counties
that have since voted out the profits re-
ceived the following surplus as theif
share of the profits:

Pure Food LEGISLATION.

The necessity for some legislation
on this subject is generally acknowl-
edged That general law of Cong
reSs would be better than the vary
ing laws of the different states is
also self-evident. The editor of the
Maine Farmer urges his readers to
write to the senators from that state.
All that he says on the matter will
apply equally well TO this state,
merely changing the names from
Frye and Hale to those of our sena-
tors
If every voter in Maine would
write personal letter to United
States Senators Frye and Hale, urg-
ing them to be active in aiding pure
food legislation. great assistance
would be rendered The law proposed
is wise, yet conservative, but the Op-
position on the part of the adultera-
tors of all products is SO active that
only through united efforts can there
be hope for results. The profits from
these frauds are so great that money
will be spent lavishly to thwart the
public will. If we want to save and
prOlOng human life, if the lives of
those coming into our families are of
any consequence, active measures
must be taken to protect from adulter
ated food products. The evil is so
widespread that hard work alone can
create the demand which will insure
protection of the innocent and pure
food products for all. Here's a prob
lem for discussion at our Grange ses-
SiOnS.

Startling but True.

People the world over were horrited
on learning of the burning of Chicago
theater in which nearly six hundred peo-
pie lost their lives, yet more than five
times this number or over 5000 people
died from pneumonia in Chicago during
the same year, with scarcely passing
notice. Every one of these cases of
pneumonia resulted from cold and
could have been prevented by the timely
use of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
A great many who had every reason to
fear pneumonia have warded it off by
the prompt use of this remedy. The fol-
lowing is an instance of this sort: "Too

Extent Of Loss to Orange Trees
VIII Not be Known in
Several Days.

Florida experienced the coolest
weather yesterday in several years,
and no part of the state, except it be
south of the 26th parallel, is exempt.
In Palatka the mercury touched
the freezing point at 4 p. m. on
Wednesday, going down slowly but
steadily all night, and reached its
lowest point of 100 above zero just
before sun up Thursday.
All through Thursday the mercury
remained below the freezing point,
and the indications pointed to o COL
der night than the preceding one.
The lettuce and celery beds in this
section are probably ruined, though
some growers are hopeful that this
is not true.
What oranges remained on the
trees are frozen as hard as cannon
balls. Oranges brought here on
Thursday morning from San Mateo,
when cut open, were filled with ice.
On several of the groves on the east
side of the river, there will be loss
of several hundred boxes of fruit.
1t is the general opinion that the
orange trees are but Slightly injured,
if at all. But it will take several
days to determine the extent of dam
age.
The telephone lines to Crescent
City were down all day yesterday
and the extent of damage on the
peninsula could not be learned. But
it is probable that the fruit in all
narts of the Fruitland peninsula is
ruined.
