THE STATUS OF THE OISPENSARY.
The Ten Counties Which Have Voted Out the
Dispensay Willingly Sacrificed S25O,000.
fThe State, November - !

Onc-fourth of The State OF South Ca
rolina is to-day outside of the dispcnsary
influence. The counties which have re-
jected the diSpcnsary represent more
than one-fouTth of the wealth and popu-
lation of the State, and the dispensary
last year received more than one-fourth
of its support from these counties.
The gross sales of whiskey by the
state dispensary system last wear aggrc-
gated S3,374, ,7SG.43. The counucs which
nave voted out the dispensary handled
'SSl3, 200.2l Of that mount. In addition
to this the sale of beer in the State was
aS234 ,3Si.53, of which amount the coun-
tics recently enlisted against the dspen-
sary handled $50, ,SSG. II, not very large
amount to be sure, but there are few
beer dispensaries in the State outside
of Columbia and Charleston and j. S.
Rarnnm alone handled S92, l22 worth of
beer last year
These figures give the relative impor-
tance to the dispensary of the support
of those counties which have voted out
che institution. There are other counties
to vote on the question in the next four
weeks and by the time the Legislature
meets there will be more than 80 per
cent of the State out from the work
ings of the dispcnsary law.
GROSS SALES or wmIsKEY.

sales of the dispcnsarcs in the ten coun.

In lime OF Peace.

In the first months of the Russia Japan
war we had striking example of the
necessity for preparation and the early
advantage of those who, so to speak,
''have shingled their roofs in dry
weather" The virtue of preparation
has made history and given to us our
greatest men. The individual as we'll as
the nation should be prepared for any
emergency. Are you prepared to com
bat the first cold you take? cold can
be cured more quickly when treated as
soon "a it has been contracted and be-
fore it has become settled in the system.
'Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is famous
for its cures of colds and it should be kept
at hand ready for instant use. For sale

THE TOTAL COST.

HE loIAls COST.
From all of these tables it will be seen
that without the support of other coun-
ties which will vote out the dispensary
before the end of the year, there is now
a strong nucleus which will be banded
together in the making of satisfactory
laws when the Legislature meets.
These ten counties which have voted
out the dispensary have assumed addi-
tional taxation amounting to S3l 1928. 40
Tor mill on S62,656,07S in property i;
have said that they no longer want the
Sl29, TS7G4 in profits to town and county
and that they are willing to sacrifice
their share of the surplus school fund,
SS9,66O0i last year, but much less this
year. These three items will aggregate
nearly quarter of a million dollars,
which these counties are willing to sur
render in order to save the money which
would have been spent for whiskey.

Negroes Tried to Lynch White Man.

Atlanta, November 13.-T. u. Justice,
a white man, was captured by mob of
negroes here at noon charged with a
criminal assault on negro girl.
Justice was threatened with violence
and the mob increased to more than
1000, demanding that he be lynched. A
strong force of police rescued Justice
and took him to police headquarters.

On the battlefield where Custer was
slain the government is making ceme-
terry of famous Indian fighters. The
bones of the dead are being removed
from the burying grounds of the West
ern army posts and taken to the Custer
field in Montana, where the graves are to
be kept green.
We hear many complaints of inability
to secure laborers for any purpose in
Walhalla, and yet there are idle negroes
always on the streets with no visible
means of earning livelihood. We sug-
gest that our authorities get busy with
the vagrancy law is a good thing in it's
place. Press the button, gentlemen.

The Columbia State ought to furnish
its head-writer with map of South

Pickens county. Such an error is un-
pardonable. Had he thought Columbia
ITO be located in Lexington county, or
Charleston in Berkeley, it might have
been overlooked. But Walhalla in Pick

And Greenville has also kicked out
the dispensary. The vote in that county
yesterday resulted as follows: Twenty
out of 3S precincts gave POI votes for re-
tanning the dispensary, 1888 against it,.
There are eighteen precincts t. hear
from, but there is no possibility of a
change in the result. The dispensary is
out. Greenville city gave 80 for the dis
pensary and 30S against it.

The reorganization plan for the Union
and Buffalo cotton mills, at Union, has
been submitted to the creditors, and is,
IN substance, that the creditors take first
and second preferred stock for their
claims, taken as they come, and that the
stockholders take common stock for
ther share. The plan is practically the
same as that which was effected in the
reorganization of the Olympia mills, in
Columbia.

In addition to the loss of the profits
which had been accruing locally, these
counties will be shared out of partici-
pating in the division of profits of the
State dispensary. From the school fund
aggregating nearly 100000 these coun-
ties. together with Marlboro and Green
wood, last year received about 800, 900.
They are yet entitled to so much of the
deficit as will be necessary to make up

to supplement the three mill school
tax-but none of the surplus school
fund will be available for the prohibition

And in considering the effect of voting
out the dispensaries, nothing more aptly
illustrates the determination of the peo-
pie OF the counties affected thereby than
their willingness to be taxed an addi-
