PROPHECY FULFILLED.
How the Dispensary Law Is Not Be-
ing Enforced, as Was Foretdd
By Senator Blease.

! Editor Herald and News: "It has
even been said that Governor Hey
ward has said he would not put OH
the extra tax. Hayward has nothing
to do with it. The legislature has al
ready put on this half mill tax, and
the legislature by its act said II you
vote out the dispensary this tax shall
be levied. Therefore, by voting out
the dispensary you vote on the tax.
Also, you will not receive any part of
the school fund.-
"He also spoke Of the fact that the
country was not policed as was the
town. and that it would be even more
impossible to suppress blind tigers in
the country than in the town, and said
they would flourish from the day the
dispensary was voted out"
"After the dispensary, then what9
Blind tigers throughout the county
and social clubs in the town, with the
card table, the social drink and the
poker game
"Some say that they are voting
against the dispensary to get rid of
the clubs. If the dispensary is voted
out the vote does not affect the clubs.
They remain just the same. because
thev are chartered institutions by the
state. So if the dispensary goes, there
remain with you the clubs, the blind
tiger and other ways Of illicit liquor
selling, with no revenue. "
"Your tax levy is now two and one
half mills for county purposes. 1t
the dispensary is voted out, it will be
necessarily five mills. The loss on dis
pensary profits for the remaining
months of this year will cause def
cheney in the present fiscal year which
will also have to be met by the levy
for the next year. Besides this we
lose all the money which we have been
receiving from the state dispensary
fund for our public schools, as this is
provided in the Brice bill. ~
The above are quotations from the
speeches of Senator Cole L. Blease
last summer when the dispensary
question was being agitated. What are
the conditions today? Let's see. DR..
Cromer says in his letter to the gov
ernor: "After comforting with d
number ,of those who led in the oppo-
sition to the dispensary in this county:
and who are in favor Of law and or
der, I am writing to ask: that yon
send constables to this county to en-
force the law against the illicit traffic
in liquor. Tie law is enforced in the
town of Newberry, but not in the
country and smaller towns. 1t is
bootless to argue for what the
county needs is an enforcement OF the
law now. And it has become clear
enough that the law will not Dc 'en-
forced outside of the towns" etc.
How does this compare with the
statement of Senator Blease last sum-
mer? How does it compare with the
fact that during this week the mayor
has tried and convicted three persons
for selling liquor within the incor-
porate limits of the town Of New
berry. If the law is being enforced IN
Newbery why should the mayor be
Furnishing these innocent (?) persons? ?
Who. hollers first for the constables
to come to Newberry county? The
citizens Of Prosperity. Where next
the vail? Chappels. Next?. Poma-
ria. Then comes Dir. Cromer.
