A complete accord resulted from a

does not care to have, request books
used because it would make, as they
think, the dispensary law unpopu.
lar in that county.
/ wish it plainly understood that
I am ready at all times to see that
those officers under my jurisdiction:
who have any duties in connection
with the dispensaryy fully discharge
these duties.
The first step, it occurs to me, is
for the county boards to see that the
law with reference to request books
is enforced by the dispensers them.
selves, and il in the discharge of this
duty it is found that officers under
my jurisdiction refuse to do then
duty then it is time for me to take
action.
I wish TO assure your board OF my
purpose TO operate with You at al
times, and if for any reason request
books should not be generally usec
it will not be through any lack of co.
operation on my part. And 1 will bt
very glad if you will at any time call
my attention to any specific direclic-
ton OH the part Of any officers ap-
pointed by me.
I am advised by the eomptrollei
general that the county auditors or
account Of the large volume OF busi
ness where the use Of request books
is enforced will not have time te
check up the books and give suet
;&lme to their other duties, in connec.
fion with the tax department, as theJ
should. The primary duty of al
auditor is in connection with thu
tax department and I am satisfied
that. in the interest Of the enforce
menR. of law and business economy
that arrangements can and should bt
made by whoch the county auditor:
can get such assistance through the
county boards as will make it pos.
sible to have through system o:
checking up. Should this assistance
to auditors be furnished by thu
county boards the expense will bt
slight and will be equally borne b,
both county and town, as it shoult
be.
The law is plain with reference te
the use Of request blanks. l full;
sympathize with your board IN its et
forts to enforce this law whenevei
a county auditor refuses to carry ou!
the law when assistance is furnished
him, or when it is shown that he il
able to perform the work without as
sistance, that I will promptly remove
him from Office upon the same being
reported to me.
Very truly yours,
D. C. Heywari.
Governor.

Reaiisst Blanks Give Trouble.

Columbia State.
Gov. Hayward has addressed a
letter to the State board of dispen,
sary directors stating his position II
regard TO the uec Of request books.
This letter was brought out by the
action of the county auditor of Lee:
who, positively refuses to handle the
books on the :roand that the othel
duties Of his Office take up all Of his
time. There was also a letter writ.
tensbs County Auditor .Gibbes Of
Richland, along the same lines. Al
a arfeeent conference with the attorney
general and Commissioner Tatum il
was@decided to place the responsible
ity..on the county boards and the

"It appears that probably the lead
ing issue in the coming campaign will
be the liquor question; what is your
position on the dfspensaryq" was
asked Mr.. Blease.
1T thlnk it very unfortunate that

point where dealing with tile whiskcy
