method of selection might easily be
perverted to political purposes, and
it is to take the census out OF politics,
so far as the actual work is concerned

Some Say the Election VIII Be Full
Of Surprises for Both Sides
Intense Interest.

Columbia. August l5.-Twenty-one
counties in South Carolina will vote
upon the liquor question on Tuesday.
The people are to say IN these coun-
ties whether or not they want the
localized sale of whiskey continued IN
their territory. The issue IS one that
is Of interest to the whole South and
in this State will spell much Of the
future politics and government OF the
liquor traffic.
The counties in which the elections
are TO be held are: Abbeville, Aiken,
Bamberg. Barnwell, Beaufort. Berke-
lev, Calhoun. Charleston, Col1eton'
Dorchester. FadrAeld, FSorence,
GEORGETOWN, Hampton, Kershaw, Lee
Lexington, Orangepurg, Rchland,
Sumter and Williamsburg.
Within the last days Of the dry
period preceding the election the pro-
hibitionists have waged hard tight.
In all the above mentioned counties
speeches have been made and argu-
ments advanced for the alleged en-
lightenment of the voters Of the va
rious communities. The W. c. 1. U.
has given it's aid and encouragement
in the work and much literature has
been distributed.
AS far as can be learned, very IT.
tie work has been done by the local
optionists in any Of the counties.
The dispensary advocates have de.
pended largely upon the cold facts OF
the good work that the dispensary
has done and the funds given to edu-
cation and the lessening OF taxes
made possible by the county d1spen-
sarv system. In Charleston the busl-
ness men cf the community have en-
dorsed the dispensary system ano'
although no formal action has been
taken in Columbia, the same Is true
here.

that the faculty have considerable
share in determining the winners OF
the scholarships after examinations
before the county boards. One Of the
most important actions Of the board
was the appointment Of committee
to canvass the expense Of operating
the College and money necessary for
reasonable growth. The idea is to de-
teymine how much Of the fertilizer
tax money will be left. If a sufficient
amount is left the General Assembly
will be asked to pass an Act, giving
the trustees the right to spend 1t on
establishing and equipping fitting
school somewhere in the State. An
