EARLY DECISION EXPECT
Ed FROM UNITED STATES
SUPREME COURT
STATE AUTHORITIES BELIEVE
THAT LITIGATION WILL BE
ENDED FAVORABLE TO
SOUTH CAROLINA

Attorney General Lyon hopes that
the United States supreme court on
reconvening Monday will render 2
final decision in the dispensary litiga-
ton case, which has now been in the
courts, both federal and State, for
nearly two years. The case was argued
before this final tribunal several weeks
ago and at that time, from the ques-
tons asked and from remarks made
upon the bench, it was believed that
the decision will be made speedily,
All OF the counsel conneclcd with
the side of the State are
exceedingly hopeful ami it is bcliev-
ed that from the points and anthori-
ties quoted that tho risl.t Of the
St#.e to settle the affairs of the old
,State dispenrary will Le sustained.
There is about $8OC,OOO involved in
/ this case and should the State win il
will go far towards developing evil
iencc in some Of the graft cases now
pending in the courts.
Should the court decide that Judge
Pritchard had the right to appoint
receivers for the fund on the petition
Of some of the whiskey firms. the
naming of these receivers as already
announced by Judge Pritchard, will
be approved and the winding up af-
airs will be out OF the hands of the
State authorities.
Should the State win out in this
case Gov. Ansel will at once announce
the appointment OF two new members
o. the dispensary commission to take
the place OF Messrs 3. +. Arthurand
and {. K. Henderson, who resigned
oeca 2se Of their appointment as re-
ceivers. 1t will be recalled that the
receivership Of the funds was offered
the entire commission but Messrs w
]. Murray, Avery Patton and Jno.

H1cHs, pREp1cr1ors rOR rEnRUARY

BY the middle Of the month, Mr.. Hicks
thinks, the vernal equinox should be hav-
ing some influence, and this will affect
storm period running from the thirteenth
to the fifteenth. Storms OF rain turning
to snow, will pass in the usual direction,
although the stars indicate that this storm
may run over its schedule and mingle
with the next period. The reactionary
storm period is central from the twentieth
to twenty-second. At this time Mercury
will be making disturbance and the in
constant moon will be in perigee and on
the equator, so there will be high old
time. 1t will get warm, producing thun-
der storms, which will turn to sleet in
northern sections. Bizzards are entirely
possible as a wind-up. High gales and
cold weather will push the rear Of this
storm and right here Mr.. Hicks does give
the South little recognition by saying
that hurricanes in the West Indies may
affect the Gulf and South coast regions.
Another very similar storm is booked for
the last four days Of the month, being es-
pecially strong on seet. "This is a time
when the elect god will have picnic
with the wires," says Mr.. Hicks; "watch
and see." This will bsa disagreeable and
dangerous time, according to the prophet,
and ice gorges, foods and other manifes-
tations will keep mankind on the anxious
bench.

LEVY COURT MET

Previous to the meeting Of Levy Court
Tuesday. a conference was held by the
members, the subject being good roads.
No conference has been held regarding
the appointment of the county officials,
though there was large number OF candi-
dates present to look after their interests.
The appointments will doubtless be
made next week, according to member
Of the court.
Comptroller Phiemma Chandler sub
mitted the following letter to the court,
and it was referred to the attorney for
the court for action.
"The clerk of the peace informs me that
Winfield S. Quigley, ex-sIerk Of the peace
has taken from the Office some very i'm
peEtant papers, property of the county.
Therefore, l would recommend that
you request your attorney to take the
mat ter up at once and have them re-
turned.' .
The communication was received and
fled, and on motion OF Commissioner
Elliott the court will instruct its attorney
TO proceed to reco yer the papers and re-
turn them 10 the Office. While the coun-
ty claims to have settled in full with for
nler Clerk of the Peace Quigley, it is un-
derstood that the latter claims that about

Court.

There are indications amounting almost
to certainty that the small junta of leaders
in the Senate, Aldrich, Hale, Gallinger
and Foraker, will find their influence
curtsined after this session. Foraker,
who is perhaps the ablest man Of them
all, will retire after March the fourth, but
the real cause Of the declining strength Of
the clique that bas long ruled is the de-
termination of some new senators, headed
by Senator LaFollette, of Wisconsin, to
take hand in legislative matters. Sena-
tor LaFollette showed the strength of the
opposition and its determination to have
something to do with senatorial business
yesterday when he baked Senator Hale's
plan to expedite the naval appropriations.
He was extremely sarcastic in debate with
Senator Hale, the autocrat of the Naval
Committee, or as he is sometimes called
''the owner Of the United States Navy"
His language was; II have the hardiheod
not only to doubt the divine perfection Of
the present arrangement but to almost be-
iieve that the business of the Senate could
be distributed among its uinety-two mem
bers instead Of being taken care Of by less
than one-third ofthis body"
