The assertion that no man can touch
the dispensary without becoming un-
clean is not regarded as true by those
who make it. We believe that the
administration of the dispensary in
Lexington county, at least, is in the
hands of honorable, straightforward
and decent men, the peers in every
thing that go to make manhood and
citizenship, of any men in the county.
If there is corruption anywhere it
must be charged to lack of care in the
selection of the men who are charged
with the administration of the law.

The editor will make the rounds
with the candidates, as usual, in the
primary. They have always proven
to be very polite and especially
clever set of gentlemen, and we have
often thought it unfortunate that all
of them could not be elected. We
trust that the best of humor may pre-
vail and that the discussions may be
free and without feeling. 1t has
always been a great pleasure for us to
mingle with the people of our county
and learn their views on general mat
tiers and the condition of crops, etc.

Apparently fair weather at last,
after continuous showers for the past
month. The crops. have held up well
during the rainy weather, and with
continuous favorable conditions until
the middle of September, we will yet
gather an average crop of cotton.
Corn is not SO favorable, being drown
ed in the low lands-th late planting.

Wednesday, August 8, 1906.

1t will take more than the unsup-
ported hearsay testimony of Col.
John G. Haskell to convince the
people of Lexington county that Gen.
Willie Jones ever did anything wrong
while connected with the Dispensary.
From the statements of both parties,
it tseems that the charge against Gen.
Jones is as fimsy as it is possible to
be made, and convinces every thought
full man that Col. Haskell is desperate
in an effort to create sensation in
order that his candidacy for the State
may profit thereby. The public soon
learns to have contempt for man
who wiIlfully charges wrong to an
other without the undisputed evidence
Sof guilt in his possession.

DRESS AGENTS PRAcTIcE7

Carusos arrest, arraignment and con-
viction may have been in the ordinary
course of justice, but the announce
ment at the end of the farce that he
would appear in La BOheme"
makes it look suspiciously like
new device of the press agent. To some
people, such publicity as the operate
star got out of the proceedings against
him might seem altogether desirable;
but TO the men who manage advertis-
ing for theatrical or operate engage
ments, anything that calls attention
to their particular star or production is
so much gained. Decency, legitimate
fame, the publicity that attaches nat
urany to great art of any kind are neg
Hgible1 quantities with these men.
What they want Is free printers ink
first. but even if it costs money they
count the columns devoted to the deg
radiation of Caruso clear gain if it pro-
duces box office receipts.
Il as promised, the Italian appears
the attendance will be, in sense, test
Of New -YorE's moral standards. The or
binary opera-goer cares very LITTLE
about the morality or immortality of tbs
singers, but if the audience is unusually
large and devotes special attention tC
the tenor it may be taken for granted
that the auditors are attracted by the
spectacle of a man who has been made
conspicuous by questionable practice:
rather than by the promise of grea'
singing and acting. In other words, the
press agents theory that any sort Of
publicity is desirable will be tested II
this case If it pays. if the public sub
rnits and approves by paying money fol
admission, the theory will, be accepted
as finally and conclusively successful il
