Dispensary Tax Upheld.

The supreme court of the United
States has decided that the national
government may properly tax the H.
quor dispensaries of this state. The
opinion das delivered by Justice Brew
er in the case of the State Of South
Carolina vs. the United States. This
action was instituted by the state to
recover $4,000 paid to the revenue
officers of the national government on
account Of the sale Of liquors by state
and county dispensers under the dis
pensary law.
The state took the position that the
dispensers sold liquor without profit
and they should not be taxed by the
government, but the tax has been col.
lected since 1898. This is said to
have been the first case in which a
state unites in one undertaking the
exercise of it's police power together
with the prosecution of commercial
business. The court of claims dismiss
ed the petition on the ground that
the exercise of the police court was
but thinly disguised, holding that the
real purpose was money-making, and
this decision is upheld.
The contention on behalf of the

can of the Union and Buffalo Mills,
Union, in the bankruptcy proceeding
instituted against him recently, IN
which he is charged with deciding
property to his wife and others filed
in the United States district court at
Charleston, denies many CT the ale
cations; which are made, and finally
asserts that he is solvent, praying a
hearing of the court. He admits that
he is indebted to the mills on open
account, but alleges that they also
are indebted to him. He admits the
deciding of lands in Union and Spar
tanburg counties, as charged, but dis
puted the time stated, and also ad
mits that from time to time he has
paid certain creditors money, and
transferred to them property, denying
all other allegations of insolvency.

BALLOT RECOUNT BEGUN.
Counsel for Hearst and Mcclellan
Have Sharp Spats In Court,
But Are OverruIed.

The recount Of ballots IN five bal
lot boxes used in New York's contest.
ed election was ordered to be begun
Friday by Justice Amend in the SUI
preme court. The original order to
open these five boxes was granted q
few, days ago.
Justice Amend, In ordering the re-
count to begin, modified his original
order so as to limit the canvassing to
the candidates for mayor, comptroller
and president of the board Of alder
laen. and also eliminate from the re-
count the void and protested ballots.

ed in a heated argument before the
boxes were opened, Alton B. Parker,
for Mayor Mcclellan, and MT. Butts
contending that the court had no
light to make re-canvass Of tho votes
., consider the result, but could conn
pei the election inspectors correctly
to state the result they reached on
election.
"You mean, then" said Austen G.
Fox, for Mr.. Hearst, that you do not
want the true vote ascertained, and
that if a vote for Hearst has been
counted for Mcclellan, you do not
want it known?"

Mr.. Parker disclosed that the court.
had no right to throw out any ballot

tion inspectors. Justice Amend ruled
that it Is estopped from questioning
the validity Of the ballots, and that
they must be counted as cast. ls

state was that the United States is
beyond the reach of state taxation,
so is the state equally beyond the
reach of United States taxation; that
neither the property nor the agencies
and instrumentalities used by the
state for the transaction of it's busi-
ness can be subjected to any burden
Of taxation by the United States.
The opinion dwells at length upon
the possible consequences of conced.
ing the position of South Carolina in
the controversy, and, in part, is as
follows:
"The right of South Carolina to
control the sale of liquor by the dis
pensary system has been sustained.
The profits from the business in the
year 1901 were over half million
dollars. Mingling the thought Of prof
it with the necessity of regulation
may induce the state to take posses
sion in like manner of tobacco, oleo.
margarine and all other objects OF
internal revenue tax. If one state
finds this profitable, other states may
follow. and the whole body of inter-
nal revenue tax be thus stricken
down.
More than this, there Is large
and growing movement in the country
in favor of the acquisition and man
agement by the public of what are
termed public utilities, including not
merely therein the supply Of gas and
water, but also the entire railroad
system. Would the state by taking
possession of these public utilities
lose it's republican form of govern
ment?
obviously, if the power of the
state is carried to the extent suggest
ed and at the same time relieved
from all federal taxation, the national
government would be largely crippled
in its revenues
Justices White, Peckham and Nc
Kenna dissented.

Everybody Looking to Great Britain
For Cue.
While in official circles in London,
it is admitted that the powers do not
expect the sultan to yield, as the re-.
suit Of the occupation Of Mitylene,
it was stated Thursday that plans for
the next step had not yet been def.
nitely arranged, the other powers
awaiting the British proposals.
The foreign Office states that the
British government does not know ex'
actly the extent of the coercion which
the other powers are willing to EN-.
pioy, but it is certain that none Of the
powers Is willing to resort to actual
warfare in order to enforce the de-
rands for the. financial control If

This view of the situation makes

cies here, and, as Great Britain is
taking the lead, the movement of the
de emonstrating fleet may be delayed for
some time pending the decision Of
the cabinet concerning the resignation
Or the dissolution of parliament.
The government has received infor.
nation from servia, through of1clal
s. urces, that the Macedonian com.
