). The commission further finds
that said claimants did moi comply
with the law Of the State of South
Carolina relative to sales to and
purchases by the state board OF dl-
reetors Of the South Carolina dis
pensary in that:
(a) They failed to comply with the
provisions Of said law requiring that
only one bid shall be made by any
one for the said Ullanan & Co. and
Anchor Distilling Company, being IN
fact one aad the same firm, did
fraudulently and deceitfully pretend
that they were separate firms, and
did frequently make two or more
bids at tne same time to the trcasur-
er of the State Of South Carolina for
consideration by the state board Of
directors of the South Carolina dis
pensary.
(b) They failed to accompany
their bids or any Of them with che
mical analysis Of the liquor offered
for sale.
(c) They failed to furnish any
bond or bonds to insure the compl-
ance by them with the terms Of the
contracts of purchase and sale be-
tween them and said State dlspen-
sary.
(d) That they violated said law in
that they constantly had agents, rep
resentatives and solicitors IN the
State for the purpose Of soliciting the
purchase Of their goods by SAID
South Carolina dispensary, and did,
through their said agents and rep

This January II, 1908.
The Commission Adjourns,

State dlspensary, having flnlsneo the
case of Ullman & Co., will not meet
again until January 30th. At that
time the other creditors Of the State
dispensary will be expected to have
their books present for examination
with persons who are competent to
swear to the accuracy and slgn1tl-
canoe of the entries. This is the
condition. which the commission has
laid down as precedent to paying any
Of the claims against the dispensary.
Relievein@ that there are overcharges
involved in the sales made to the dis
nensarv, the commission . has an
nounced that it desires to see the orl-
cinal books Of entry so that it can de-
termine whether the prices paid by
the State Of South Carolina were
higher than prices paid by other Gus
toners Of the same whiskey houses.
In the case Of Ullman & Co.. wnlch
has been under investigation the last
two days, this has been proved to be
true. the overcharge being at least
20 per cent.
The other houses which had been
notified to he present at this time
have. not sent their books or repres-
entatives. and as some Of them claim
t?at their notices had not been re-
ccived. it was decided 10 send them
notices by registered mail. so there
r?i"!'t be no mistake.

Married in Seattle

An announcement received a few
days ago conveys the information that
Miss Grace Elizabeth Parker and Mr..
Ira D. Edwards were joined in wedlock
at Seattle on August 5th and that they
will be at home in Redlands, Califor-
MIA, after September 1st.
The bride had visited here accession
ally while making her home in Wenat-
chee, where she had many friends and
was universally admired. The groom
had made his headquarters in Leaven-
worth for several years where he is
interested in the Leavenworth Mercan-
tile Co., and acted as its manager up
to some two years ago when he gave
up his active interest for outdoor oc-
cupation and spent most of his time in
southern California. Mr.. Edwards is a
gentleman whom any man might be
proud to number amcng his friends.
To him and his accomplished and
charming wife we extend hearty greet
ings and wish that they may have a
long and happy life.

Walter NJ. Olive has lived so long
in Chelan county, at one time resi-
dent Of this place for short time, that
it seems superfuous to go into the
form of an introduction. For many
years he was a prominent business man
in Cashmere, some two years ago
removing to Wenatchee where he has
taken a prominent part in the upbuild-
ing of the town and county. Just
about the time he moved to Wenatchee
he built an irrigation ditch near Cash
mere and brought several hundred acres
Of land under water. He has always
been active in promoting the fruit
growing possibilities Of the entire
county. He is a sound republican and
no man has taken a more active part in
promoting party success than Walter
M. Olive in the past, even when the
party turned a deaf ear to his personal
ambitions. II he keeps up his record
for work he will make an active cam
paign between now and Sept. s.

Postmasters of The State Organize

J. c. Davis attended the meeting
and organization Of the postmasters at
Spokane last week. He says the meet
ing was productive OF much good. Il
gave postmasters a broader and more
comprehensive view of their duties. A
number OF very interesting lectures
were delivered by members of the ser
vice. Mr.. Mondel, one of the super
intendents of the money order and
registered mail departments talked for
four hours on the branch of the service
with which he is most familiar. Mr..
Richie, one of the inspectors present,
talked very entertainingly for nearly
three hours on errors in postofice.
Mr.. Clements talked for nearly two
hours on rural mail routes.
The organization will embrace all
postmasters in the state including the
fourth grade and above. After thoro
discussion the meeting went on record
as favoring both the parcels post and
the postal savings bank as recommended
by Postmaster General Meyer.

COSGROVF WILL BE GOVERNOR
Strong Tide in His Favor West of the
Mountains

If the general activity shown at the
headquarters Of the respective candi
dates for governor can be taken as a
criterion of their relative strength, Mr..
Mead and Mr. Mcbride can take little
comfort out of the showing that S. G.
Cosgrove is making in King county.
A constant stream of visitors from all
parts OF the state elbow local men in
the rooms at the Arlington hotel here
in which Cosgrove is located. The
continued presence of the candidate
himself in Seattle is having beneficial
effect on his campaign on the west side.
A rather surprising development in
this city is the growing feeling that
Seattle should not go after the govern
orship. With her congressman and
senator it is thought that Seattle has all
she can we'll ask for and that it will
strengthen her position when she asks
the state two years hence to return her
senator to Washington if she now
throws her support to one of the out
side candidates for governor. Mcbride
has many friends here, but they think
he should not have gone after the gov
ernorship. Mead has practically no
strength in King county, SO that Cos
grove, a strong man anyway and one in
whom confidence is expressed on all
sides, is falling heir to the support that
is leaving Mcbride on account of the
spread of the feeling that this county
should not be too greedy.
The fact that Mcbride himself has
been spreading the story that Cosgrove
sentiment east of the mountains was
disappearing came out this week and
has not helped the King county candi-
date. 1t had the comforting effect of
sending in to the Cosgrove headquar-
tiers hundreds OF letters from over the
mountains to the effect that the Cos
grove candidacy is in the best possible
condition there.

Walla Walla, Wash.


My dear Senator: On July 20 I sent
you a letter suggesting that we discuss
together before the people Of the state
the matters at issue in the senatorial
contest. l have received no reply, and
I presume from your silence that you
do not intend to meet me in joint de-
bate. desire to state to you that l
shall be pleased to discuss our respec-
tive efforts in congress with anyone you
may select, at any time or place. You
are at perfect liberty to arrange with
any OF your democratic supporters, or
any of your republican friends, or any
one else that believes you should be
reelected, to engage in such discus
sion with me; as my only desire is that
the people may be fully informed thru
a complete, fair and open discussion as
to our respective records and merits,
and our views as to the future work to
be accomplished for our state.
trust you can persuade at least one
of your supporters to appear openly
with me and discuss your senatorial
record and capacity before the people,
rather than to confne their efforts 10
secret meetings, where possibly there
is no one who can challenge statements
made, no matter how false or mislead-
ing they may be.
Very respectfully yours,
w. L. Jones.

KEEP AWAY FROM THE
BIG CITIES, GIRLS.

Jamestown Capital: North Dakota
girls are warned to stay away from
the Twin Cities, where there is no
work for them. According to the
reports from Minneapolis girls have
been arriving in great numbers from
the country places and scores OF them
are half starved. Matron .Schaeffer3
of the Central police station, has the
following to say about the situation:
II parents could only be made to
realize that the city is no place for
their girls many would be saved from
suffering. Each day we have cases
of those who have come here expect
ing TO get work and have been disap-
pointed.
just last week we had a little girl
not 16 years old, who had come to the
city looking for work and who was
obliged 70 live in cheap lodging
house while on her hunt for work that
was hard to be found. When she did
find q place to work she lost her way
in going TO It next day. she was I'M.
able even to find the place where she
was staying. so she was brought in
by the police, These cases come up
too often. NY warning to the girls
IN the small towns IS to stay there
where they are near those who can
care for them
