Did Dispensay Officials Make Statement
Charged! When.

Mr.. Voter:-Do you put Dispensary
officials in Office to run the Dlspensary.
or to run our elections?
Do you put money in their hands to
use in conducting the Dispensary or to
use in defeating your will as expressed
in an election?
Do the Dispensary forces show the
weakness of their case when they are
afraid to come cut in this campaign,
but say that they will spend your money
to defeat your will by employing expen.
sive Attorneys to take advantage OF
every technicality in the Law?
To sum up: Is the Dispensary run be-
cause YOU say so and for your benefit, or
is 1t to be run IN despite Of anything
YOU say and for the benefit OF the Dis
pensary officials: And what do you
think of their statement that the peo-
ple's money viii be used to protect the
people against themselves.
The Dispensary cannot run without
making drunkards; will you furnish
your boy for the next drunkard?
Is the Dispensary working for tenn
perance? It's liquor is advertised at
bargain prices TO help the sale!
Honest now: Do you believe that the
officials OF cities and counties in which
Prohibition has been tried are lying
when they say that Prohibition decreas.

Notice Of Special Election
STATE Or SOUTH CAROLINA,
Clarendon County.

Whereas, petition has been filed in
this Office before the first day Of May,
1908, by one-fourth of the qualified cleo
tors of Clarendon County, praying for
special election to determine whether
alcoholic liquors and beverages shall be
sold 10 said County.
It is ordered, That special election
shall be held in Clarendon County,
South Carolina on the first Tuesday fol-
lowing the first Monday in November,
1908, at which the question whether al
coholic liquors and beverages shall be
sold in said County shall be determined,
and also to determine, if the Dispensary
is retained, whether one-third OF the IL
cense fees and dispensary profits shall
be paid to the County Treasurer to be
applied to the County School funds, or
to roads and bridges.
Further ordered, That at such cleo
ton the Election Commissioners for
such County shall at each voting pre-
circt therein provide two ballot boxes
in which the ballots must be cast. Any
person who is qualified elector OF such
| County may vote in said election. Every
voter who may be in favor of the sale
of liquors and beverages in said County
shall cast ballot in the box provided
therefor, on which shall be printed the
words, ;'For Sale;;n and every voter OPP
posed shall cast ballot, upon which
Shall be printed the words, against
Sale" Every voter who may be in favor
of the application of one-third OF the
Dispensary profits to the County Schools
Fund, shall cast a ballot in the box pro
vided therefor, upon which shall be
printed the words, For School Fund"
AID every voter opposed thereto, but IN
favor of it's application to roads ano
bridges, shall cast ballot, upon which
shall be printed the words, "For Roads
and Bridges" r. E. MCFADDIN,
County Supervisor.
The Manning times. [volume] (Manning, Clarendon County, S.C.) 1884-current, 1908-10-28

the election shall be conducted. These
provisions, including that OF advertise
ment, are directory and rot mandatory,
! which means that substantial compll,
auce is sufficient What is a substantial
! compliance is question for the Courts,
and it is difficult to say what Will be
taken as a substantial compliance II the
law has not been literally complied
with. However. we find that the first
question is always. ''What has been
the result OF the failure TO literally
comply with the law, and have the par
ties complaining been injured?' And,
further. the Courts always consider the
reasons of the failure to comply with
the law, and if fraud is charged or
proven an election is more quickly set
aside. In this case there can be no claim
of fraud.
The end to be reached by advertising
is notice TO the voters OF the electlon ~
order that they may vote. Ordinarily
a notice of election is advertised IN the
papers several weeks before the day
fixed for the election. ln this case it is
advertised for two weeks IN the news
paper in this County, but IN addition to
that, notices have been posted ali over
the County Further every voter IN the
County has been notified OF the election
and an active campaign is going on, IN
cludine speeches to be made at public
meetings in all sections of the County.
The end to be reached by the advertis-
ING for thirty days has certainly been
reached By the advertising which this
election has received and will receive.
The Court il Trimmer V. Bomar, 20
S. c.. 354, 36l, thus states the rule: In
elections the great matter is the result.
When this is clearly ascertained, 1t
sweeps away all techicalities. The ma
chinery provided should be observed,
but in so Tar as it is not necessary to de-
termine the result, it is directory and
not mandatory. Certainly manner and
form should not be allowed. TO defeat
the undoubted will of the people clearly
expressed. This would be, indeed, sub
ordinating and sacrificing the substance
to the shadow"
Further, the Prohibitiopists have
complied strictly with the law and as
there he: Zen no failure in any technl-
calitv ;. their part we do not think the
T. gnt of an officer which manltestly
has harmed no one will be allowed to
override and render unavailing the will
of the people as expressed IN this cleo
ton.
Its apparent, however, that the Dis
pensary element is making every effort
to keep down the vote and perhaps this
is done with the expectation of claiming
before the Courts that the lack Of notice
has prevented some OF the electors from
voting. We consider 1t important that
the Prohibitionists should vote and If
they do so and there are reasonable:
number of votes cast and the result OF
the election is for Prohibition, we are
confident that the election will be up
held. Yours Truly,

Dear Sir:-Answering your inquiry
as to whether the failure to advertise
the Prohibition Election for thirty days
will vitiate the election. We have gore
as carefully into this matter as the linn
tied time and pressure of other business
will allow, and have reached the follow
ing conclusions:
The Law provides that the election
shall be advertised for thirty days, and
it also provides that each box shall be
lebeled in PLAIN Roman letters; that the
ballots shall be of plain white paper
two and a bali inches wide by five inch
es long. That an opening shall be made
in the lid of each box not larger than
sufficient for single ballot to be insert
ed therein at one time, ETC.. going into
