The Petition Dismissed.
Supreme Court Upholds Gov.
Ansel in Matter of Remov-
al of State Dispensary
Board.

v
News, Feb. 19.-The Supreme
Court today heard the arguments
in the case brought by the board
of directors of the State disper
sary 10 require Gov. Ansel to
show cause why writ Of certio
rari should not be issued against
the removal Of the board.
The order was issued last week
by Associate Justice Jones at
Lancaster and he requested the
court to meet with him here to-
dav and hear the case. All of
the members of the court were
present, including Chief Justice
Pope, who has been seriously
i'll at his wberry home. The
return of Governor Ansel set up
denial Of the jurisdiction Of the
court to review his action in this
matter, on the ground that The
Governor is the supreme execu
tive official Of the State and that
he is not subject to the control
of the court in such matter.
The return was read by .Attor-
ney General Lyon, who then pro
ceeded to argue the case from
that standpoint. He was fol-
lowed by Mr. w. T. Aycock, at
torney for ] M. Rawlinson; then
by j. f. Mcdonald, attorney for
Jos. b. Wylie then by Mr.. w.
b. Gruber, attorney for John
Black. The assistant attorney
general, Mr.. M. p. Debruhl, re-
piled for the Governor.
During the progress of hear
ing Associate Justice Woods and
Associate Justice Jones both
asked questions TO bring out Ger.
tain points and the trend of their
questions seemed TO show that
they entertained very serious
doubts of power of the court TO
proceed futher with the matter.
The attorney general did not
bring out the fact or raise the
point that the question before
the courI was academic or hypo
thetlcal, inasmuch as the Off ce
which the directors had held has
since the Governors action, been
abolished by act OF the General
Assembly, but this point was
brought out in a question from
Justice Woods during the argu-
ment of MIR Mcdonald, md il
was discussed briefly by Messrs.
Donald, Gruber and Debruhl
The attorney general asked that
the jurisdiction of the court be
decided, and he rested the case
entirely upon that point, moi
caring to raise any other issue.
After cOnfering for less than
an hour the court dismissed the
petition in the following order:
The State of South Carolina.
In the Supreme Court.
j. M. Rawlinson, ct al, petition
ers, against M. f. Ansel, as Gov
ernor, &C., respondent.
After hearing the petition, the
return and argument thereon.
1t is ordered that the writ
prayed for be refused, and that
the petition be dismissed.

TEN YEARS SOUTHERN ACCOMPLISH.
MENTS.

From Manufacturers Record, May y:
Facts about the South of today
are among the most interesting
facts of human history. They
record deeds accomplished, notable
in themselves, given marked EN-
phasized when compared with the
results in activities in other parts
of the country and OF unparalleled
significance when viewed against
the appalling background OF gen.
Grafton ago. These facts cannot
escape the attention OF men OF al
fairs, of statesmen, hnaneiers,
manufacturers, publicists and stu
dents of economics. They will
stand forth, whether they bear up
OH the present or the immediate
past, and they must be known il
one would gain the right perspect-
i've from which TO study the po,en-
tialities of the future.
The material progress OF the
South during the past 10 years is
strikingly illustrated by its pro-
duction during that period OF 1885,
90, 600 sco-pound bales OF cotton;
5000, 44I,S99 bushels OF corn, 6s5,-
1909 bushels of wheat; 659,-
os7, 244 bushels of oats; 100, 600, =
600, 600 feet OF lumber; ST., 62o, e
$50 short tons OF coal; 265,S59,252
barrels of petroleum; 27542, 500
long tons of pig-iron; 1902, I5s
long tons of phosphate.
In that period the South in.
creased the capital invested in its
cotton mills from S92 900, 900 to
s2so, ooo. 900 and nearly trebled
the number OF its spindles, having
increased the 3,693, 900, which it
had in 1897 to 9,76o, 900 in 1909.
During the same period the South
built I5,9oI miles of railroad,
bringing its total mileage to o.
o35. 1t exported to foreign lands
through its ports merchandise ag-
gregating in value s4,97s, 900, 600.

People swear because they do not

remnant Of this ancIcnt credulIty still
exists. II IL In regard 10 tho absolute
imperishable character OF the toad.
There are well educated Americans
Who believe that a toad hops out alive
from slab Of stone though he has
been Imprisoned there for several mil
lions Of years. We give In brief DR..
Buckland's experiments with toads IN
1875. He took twelve toads and had
the toads put In twelve cells cut In
sandstone, and over these he put plates
OF glass. They were buried In a gar
den for over a year. When exhumed
they were all dead. Then some were
nut In porous sandstone, and at the
end OF year few were found great.
" emaciatcd." when buried for an
other year. they all died. Toads were
inclosed In wood, and they all died.
The conclusion Is that. deprived Of at
mosphcre or without food. toads must
die. II toad rs a tadpolc could have
entered a crevice In a rock. II might
have grown. but would have died In

THE DEMAND IS
GREAT FOR UNION
MADE JEWELRY

In an interview with Mr.. George f.
Brady. the international president of the
Jewelry Workers union, in regard TO the
law passed recently by the state legisla-
ture. relative to the stamping OF jewelry
with false or untrue karat stamp. he
said:
THAT law has been in effect az far as
our organization has been concerned. for
the past four years; adj manufacturing
jewelers. using the union label. have sign
ed an agreement of which the following
is part:
1T Is further agreed that the said
union label shall not be stamped upon
any article which bears any false or un-
true , karat stamp; or any other stamp in
stamped intended intended to mislead the
purchaser OF said article"
He also stated that in consideration of
the fact that Providence is the mecca
of the jewelry trade. 1t is interesting TO
note that there is general movement on
foot In this city to organize the jewelry
workers in their respective branches,
which is also being done In the jewelry
trade throughout the United States in
the principal cities there Is great de-
mand for labeled jewelry. and as the
bulk OF the manufacturing Is done I'm this
vicinity, IL behooves the jewelers. here TO
label shops to be established here. This
l. a question which should be given seri-
Gus consideration by the manufacturers
as well as the jewelry workers in the
East.
1t is a wel-known fact that the jewelry
shops throughout tie West are working
shorter hours and under better condi-
tions than the shops ii the East.
Many requests have been made OF the
representatives of the Jewelry Workers
union for such articles as rings. brooches
watches and vest chains which are IN
general use. Ii seems to have been impos-
sble to awaken the manufacturers OF
these articles that there is such an ur-
gent demand for union made jewelry;
while the manufacturers may not be
fact is made possible under the jobbing
system under which jewelry is sold.
The jewelry workers or this and all
other cities are aware OF this fact. AMI
are willing to cooperate with the man
ufacturers. The large jobbers OF jewelry
know that the Jewelry Workers unions
are opposed to the jobbing system,
whereby the unnecessary middleman de-
rives n profit which comes out of the pub
lie purse, and on account OF this they do
not wish the union label to become too
prominent and, therefore, do not acquaint
the manufacturers in regard to the de-
mand for the union label on their product,
made by the public to their retail dealer;
that there Is method in their madness IL
an assured fact, for II the workers become
a prominent factor, with the assistance
OF the jewelry manufactures. there VIII
undoubtedly he an attempt made TO givo
the general public the benefit and eliml-
nate the middleman.
