THE REGISTRATION LISTS. =,

DR.. j. H. Saye has introduced a bill
providing for a revision Of the regis
tration lists Of York county and 1t Is
hoped that the bill will become law.
The registration lists Of York county
are probably in as good shape as those
of any other county in the state; but
all are sadly in need of revision. &c.,.
The new registration under the con-
,stitution of 1895 has been in progress
since that time, the names OF new
voters being added every month, with
no elimination of the names Of voters
who have died or moved out of the
county.
The jury laws provide that only
qualified voters are eligible to jury
duty, and making up the jury boxes
from the registration lists the jury
commissioners frequently include the
names of people who are dead or who
have moved away, giving the sherin
lots of unnecessary trouble and caus-
ing annoying delay in the business or
the court.
With a complete revision Of the lists
as they now stand and provision for
taking Off the names that do not count.
much trouble and annoyance will be
avoided.

SOUTH CAROLINA NEWS.

-. Mrs. Ethel B. Blair. who shot her
husband, Conductor Cutler w. Blair,
to death in Columbia recently, has
been admitted to bail by Judge Prince
on a bond of $4,000. While the NOR
tally wounded husband was being TAX
en- to the hospital, he told DR.. Knowl-
ton that his wife had shot him be-
cause Of a quarrel about w. II. Arnes,
with whom Blair accused his wife OF
undue intimacy. The principal aftida-
Wit in the hearing before Judge Prince
in habeas corpus proceedings was
made by Arnes. He swore that he had
visited the Blair home only on the in
vitation of the deceased and denied
that he had ever been guilty Of impro-
priety.
Florence, January 26: One Of
the most shocking crimes that has ev-
er occurred in Florence county occur
red on the Gee plantation In the Ebe-
nezer section yesterday afternoon.
John Zanders, a fifteen-year-old boy
took his little one year old sister and
deliberately placed her I'm the CHM
ney of the little hut in which they
lived, where he had previously built
large fire for the purpose Of
roasting his little sister. After build
ing the fire he took the child as II II
were a stick OF wood and placed II
across the fire irons, and in few mo-
ments 1t was roasted to death. Just
about the time that the child was
placed in the flames Mr.. p. c. Miller,
the Florence manager Of the Singer
Sewing Machine company, passed
along the road I'm his buggy. He
heard the cries of the child and went
to its assistance. Upon opening the
door Of the hut to investigate the
cause he saw the body Of the child In
the chimney ablaze. He rushed In
and made an effort to save 1t, but 1t
was then burned beyond recognition.
Mr.. Miller made an effort to get the
boy to tell why he committed the deed,
but he refused and denied having
done it, Mr.. Miller then took the boy
and tied him to a tree and went to a
neighbor's and told of the terrible
deed 1t was learned today that the
boy is a half-witted negro and was not
responsible for what he did. He Is
son Of Peter and Mark Zanders, col
ored, both of whom were away at
work at the time. There were several
children around the house at the time
watching the boy through a crack in
the side of the house to see just what
he intended doing, but all Of them
were too small to stop him.

The Case Of Senator Bailey.

The New Orleans Times-Democrat
in an editorial that is not at all un-
friendly discusses the situation Of Sem
ator Joseph w. Bailey as follows:
1T was a great victory for Senator
Bailey-a triumph Of remarkable per,
sonality. But 1t leaves the essentiai
questions at issue yet unsolved. II the
present programme Is carried out, they
will be unsolved when Senator Bailey
resumes his seat in the senate. NOW
s the time for the senator to take q
strong position. He should decline to
go back to the senate until the charges
against him have been fully investigat-
ed and completely disproved. He can
do this now with the best Of grace. NO
one will be able to say his enemies
forced him to do 1t; the election by the
Texas legislature will be an answer 10
that. No one will be able to ascrlpe
any motive save the desire OF the sem
ator that every serious imputatlon
against his character as pupnc man
shall be disproved to the satisfaction OF
Texas before he again represents them.
Such a position would reflect nothing
but credit on the man who took II.
And IL. as We make bold to hope, the
investigation should dissipate into thin
mist all the allegations made by MS
opponents, he would unquestionably
emerge from it with an enhanced in
fiuence both at home and at Washing
ton. Should Senator Bailey follow
any other course we regard a grave I'M
pairment of his prestige as certain.
1t cannot reasonably be denied that
Senator Bailey is under suspicion.
People who have considered him an
able and correct man are now in doubt
as to his correctness. Their confidence
in him has been shaken. Although the
Texas legislature may whitewash him
the situation will not be changed.
There is only one thing for him to do
to regain the complete respect OF those
who have held him in high esteem, and
that is to follow the course outlined In
the above editorial.

The idea Of holding congress OF

many sportsmen there are in the coun-

care to attend should do so. The meet

NIT to local option he would join
forces with the Prohibitionists and
wipe out the whole business.
Now, as a matter Of fact. the local
optionists and Phoribitionists have
heretofore been operating against
the dispensary men on a basis
of abolition of the state dispensa-
ry and allowing local option be-
tween county dispensaries and county
prohibition: but the understanding has
not been so clear cut that 1t could be
counted upon to stand against a prop
osition from the state machine people
TO combine with the Prohibitionists for
prohibition.
1t is quite possible that such a prop
osition would still further mix the Sit
uation. There are many members
among the Prihibitionists who see
clearly that the best and most practi-
cal thing Is to smash the state ma
chine first. They can very we'll un-
derstand that there is no hope for pro-
hibition as long as the state machine
continues in existence. But there are
others who would be influenced by
overtures looking to immediate prohi-
bition, and who, turning to an alliance
with the dispensary men along that
line, would save the state machine at
least for the present.
But as we have already intimated,
there Is no predicting the outcome
The people of the state as a whole
have declared for the abolition Of the
state machine; but there are politi-
clans in both the house and senate
with whom this fact Is calculated to
have but little weight II, in any man.

result that will be more to their per-

CONDITION or DlspENsARy.
Special Committee Finds II Over
stocked With Illegal Purchases

The special dispensary investigating
committee recently appointed by the
house and senate made its report yes
terday, and the report was signed by
all the members,
The recent charges OF Commissioner
Tatum as to excessive purchases or
new brands OF case goods, ETC., are
confirmed in toto. and Major Black Is
charged with having bought whisky to
the amount Of $f25,000 on his own mo-
ton.
The committee confined It's investi-
cations principally to an examination
Of the dispensary officers and clerks
and had made a transcript Of all the
testimony, which transcript was turn
ed over to the general assembly.
The investigation showed that much
Of the high priced liquor bought by the
board, most OF 1t In fact, Ia COMPARE
lively worthless and that the price
paid was much greater than was ordt-
narily charged to independent private
dealers.
The committee has not seen proper
to make any recommendations, but
has contented itself with laying the
testimony before the general assembly
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1907-01-29
rha pisnensarY Situation.

1t was the understanding that the
pending dispensary bills would begin
to occupy the undivided time and at
tention of the house and senate today
and within a few days now the people
Of the state will, perhaps. be able 10
gather a fair idea of what the general
assembly is going to do with the whole
liquor question.
While the passage of the Smith res
olution last Friday Is source of some
qualification TO the opponents or the
state machine, those who take the
passage OF that resolution as indicat-
ing a satisfactory settlement OF the
whole matter are still liable to disap-
pointment. That resolution does not
necessarily mean a. great deal. 1t is very
eral weak and wavering senators who
are not right certain what they should
do about this matter, and II, after hav-
ing voted for the Smith resolution,
some of these folks vote against the
Carey bill on the pretext that they do
not agree with its provisions, there
need be no occasion for astonishment.
Such things have happened before.
1t Is reported that there is a possi-
bilty that even Mr.. Blease, who has
all along been regarded as the staunch-
est dispensary man in the senate. may
eventually flop over and vote to wipe
out the whole business. Mr.. Blease
is not generally supposed to be inter-
ested in the moral side of questions
like those the people, as a whole. are
trying to solve. With him every ques-
ton Of whatever nature is considered
first in the light of its bearing on the
game of politics. Mr.. Blease has been
dispensary man principally because
he thought the dispensary. the state
machine, promised most for Mr..
Blease. He was very much upset by
the recent letter of Mr.. Tatum and
there are those who think that he will
use his following to get even with Mr..
Tatum. However, it Is not safe to
bank upon any such theory as that,
lHOSc W NlO nave pVCI III q pOSiNioi'
to know Mr.. Blease best, understand
that there is no predicting what he
might do in given circumstances. He
is a bold. persistent fighter. and as
long as the dispensary continues to
hold out a promise of benefit for
Blease, he will continue to stand for
the dispeusary.
Within the past few days. especially
since the passage of the Smith resolu-
ton, a number of heretofore strong
dispensary men. even of the Raysor
stripe, have given intimation of pref
erence for prohibition. What this
may mean 1t Is not difficult to assume.
1t will be remembered that Senator
Tillman has said that rather than sub
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1907-01-29

THE News and Courier makes the
point that If majority of the votes
of the state had been for Mr.. Manning
in the recent election the legislature
would not have even thought of abol-
ishing the dispensary. Therefore
since the majority was in favor Of Mr..
Ansel on a local option platform, there
Is nothing for the legislature to do but
to carry out the instructions OF the
people. Our contemporary remarks
and In this we also agree, that the
question is, mot will the dispensary
be abolished; but will it be abolished
now?" The people have said that the
must go and they will sure
ly have their way in regard to the
matter, sooner or later.
