He describes himself as in first class

nervous disorders that followed the
mental anxiety which came upon him
in the insurance troubles. He, takes
long walks every day.. has ! kept his
weight, sleeps we'll when tired, but can

fear Of total collapse should business

DiSpenSary in Kershaw

Kershaw, it seems, is to have
a dispensary again. AS is well
known, a small part Of the town
lies in Kershaw county and the
dispensary is 10 be located on
the Kershaw side of the line
The slate board o. dispensary
directors decided at a meeting
Tuesday on the opening of the
dlspensary as stated. We are
not familiar with conditions in
kershaw, but it appears fro M
the following, taken from the
Columbia correspondence of the
News and Courier, that dispen
sary is wanted in the town "to
prevent the tiger business :" The
board granted the petition OF
Mayor Blakeney, of Kershaw
personally presented, to estab-
lish a dispensary on the Kershaw
County side of that town to take
the place of the dispensary vo-
ted out on the Lancaster side by
the Lancasteri County election
under the Brice Act. Mayor
Blakeney said it was necessar,
to have a dispensary in town to
prevent the tiger business. which
was increasing.
The board also decided, at the
meeting referred to, to buy whis-
key hereafter directly from gov.
eminent bonded warehouses, and
TO adopt the "merit system" in
the matter of dispensers salaries
the pay to be in proportion to
the business done.

The Walker Case.
Comment by an Esteemed
Contemporary--"Drive the
Blind Tigers out of Busi-
ness"
From The State.

In endorsing the appeal from
the Anti-Liquor league of Ian
caster against the pardon of J. D.
Walker OF that county, recently
convicted of the illicit sale of
liquor, The Lancaster News well
says: "The pardon of Mr.. Walk
er now would have a bad effect
IN Lancaster county. II
Mr.. Walker, as is we'll known, is
a white man of intelligence and
education, and if one of that clasI
is not to be punished for the com
mission OF so heinous an offense
as Illicit liquor selling, wherein
is the justice in Furnishing Oh
scure and ignorant violators OF
the law. whether they be white
or black The law is no respec
ter OF persons, or, at least, it
should not be, but if there is any
discrimination at all it should be
against the educated white man.
And it may be that some idea OF
that kind was in the mind of the
Judge when he imposed sentence
on Mr.. Walker" With such a
showing as this, the pardon OF
Walker would mean that the law
is not for the man with influence:
1T would mean that the poor and
inconsequential are to be punish
ed, while the respectable" are
pardoned. There is no peg in
this case on which the excuse for
executive clemency can be hung.
Let the law take its course
Punish the VIolatOrs of the dis
pensary law as well as OF other
laws drive the blind tigers out
Of business.
