Georgetown, Speeial-A new steam

has recently been completed at Con-

She is 100 feet long, 20 feet beam and
is of 1O4 tons, net burden. The
"Mitchelle C" is elegantly fitted up
for the accommodation of passengers
but has no sleeping accommodations
for the reason that she will make

This line makes the third new line
of steamers that has opened comrhuni-
cation within the past two months

Road Building Active.

Good roads conventions have, been
held in twelve Western States, and
forty-six good roads associations have
been formed during the year. Reports
which have been gathered show that
where these campaigns have been car
ried on great impetus has been given
to public road building. In the States
visited during the year and in the
States traversed by the good roads
trains previously sent out over the lili-
nois Central and the Southern Rail-
way systems, about S34,OO0,OOO has
been raised by bond issues and direct
taxation, and is being expended III
permanent road construction.
Never since the days Of national
roads and turnpikes, the report says.
has there been so much active road
building accomplished in the United
States as during the last few years.
Several of the States within the year
have provided highway commissions
and made liberal appropriations for
the ST. IT Of their work. Among
these s are Maine, New lamp

There is healthy, substantial and

THE DIsPtNsARY FAILING
Has Been Voted Out in All But One
of the Counties in Which Issue Has
Been Joined.

oCcu OOlleu.
Columbia State, Oct. 3Gth.
1t is probable that the Office OF the
attorney general will not be repre-
sented at Ashevillc Tuesday when the
:onStitutionality of the ''Brice law"
will be attacked in the United States
courts. 1t is said that the antl-dls-
pensary people in Union will have a
legal representative there anyway and
that the law will not be allowed to
be declared unconstitutional merely
because there is no one there TO de-
fend it.
Perhaps if the attorney general had
not had information to this effect his
office would have been represented
anyway, but it appears that there is
no necessity to send an additional at
torney there. Judge Pritchard recent.
ly affirmed an order that the law
would be declared in contravention te
the federal statutes unless the county
board of Union could show cause why
they should not reinstate certain dis
pensers to their jobs. 1t is now but
two months until the legislature meets
anyway, and it is possible that big
fight will be made to kill the law, root
and branch, if the Brice law should
be declared unconstitutional.
Capt. Jno. c. Sellers of Marion was
here during the State fair and ex-
pressed his belief that a prohibition
measure would be passed anyway. The
house was 3 to ] in favor Of anti-dis-
pensary legislation last year, but the
senate was mildly in favor of the
dispensary.
There are elections to be held III
several counties at an early date and
it is probable that in all of these
counties prohibition, or anti-dispen-
sary, will carry. The dates are as
follows: Anderson, Nov. 4th: Green
vile and Spartanburg, Nov. 14th;
Edgefeld, December 7th; Fairfield,
December 18th. Efforts are being
made to have vote OH this question
in Saluda, Lexington and Chesterfield
counties before the legislature meets,
and in Saluda at least the dispensary
will be voted out, if persistent effort
will avail.
Twelve counties in the State have
expressed their disapproval Of the dis
pensary, and only one has favored 1t.
Marlboro and Greenwood have con-
sistently favored prohibition, and
York, Lancaster, Cherokee, Horny,
Marion, Union, Newberry. Pickens,
Oconee and Darlington have voted 1t
ont under the provisions OF the
'.Brice law" Florence by majori-
ty of It favored the dispensaIy, but
reports from that county are to the
effect that an election tomorrow would
90 overwhelmingly the other way, es-
pecially since Darlington has voted
against the dispensary. Florence was
afraid that Darlington would keep the
dispensary and it was believed that
the dispensary situation would affect
trade.
As a matter Of information the
votes in these several elections have.
bien as follows:

The state of unnrest and semi-an-
archy that has existed in Russia for
years has recently broke forth in open
violence. Rioting has been every
where since before the closing of the
war with Japan. Strikes and labor
demonstrations have added to the COM
mon danger and unrest, so much so
that the Car has been almost a pris-
oner in his own palace. The termina-
ton of these troubles is told in the
following graphic account of the lib
srai ai~measures now being adopted by
the Russian government:
st. Petersburg, By Cable.-The au-
tocracy of the Romanoffs, and the old
order of things ceased to exist in Rus
sia.
Emperor Nicholas has surrendered
and Count Witte comes into power as
Minister President with an imperial
mandate which will enable him to con-
vert the farcial National Assembly
into real legislative boldly, elected by
greatly extended suffrage, and to con-
fer upon the people fundamental civil
liberties, including free speech.
These welcome tidings reached st.
Petersburg shortly before 6 O'Clock
Monday evening. Count Witte had
spent the day with the Emperor at
Peterhoff, going over the final draft of
the manifesto to which he insisted
!, that minor notifications be made, and
before takias> the train for St. Peters
bug he telephened to friend that
tie Emperor had affixed his signature
and that the imperial mandate COM
prising the, conditions upon which he
had agreed to accept Office was in his
pocket. These include freedom Of the
press, the right of assembly and the
immunity of the person, including the
right of habeas corpus.
