The monies to the schools and for roads and
b1idges were clear profits. but the city of Alb
beville had to pay perhaps 81 600 for policing
or enforcing the law against the illegal sale OF
liquor. During the year 1906 the sales were
con fined almost exclusively TO citizens OF Alb
beville and Greenwood counties
In 1905.

State OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES 5 IA mills

This OF course Is exclusive OF special debts
or levies which the people Of the different
school districts voted upon themselves.
These we believe to be indisputa5le facts to
which the tax payer is entitled.
But whether the dispensary is an institu-
ton from which greater evils result than
from illegal sales Of liquor is a question which
no one can intelligently or certainly decide
for another. The settlement of that question
can only be decided by each man to his own
satisfaction. No manly man should evade
the question. or be too much Influenced by
the opinion Of others. The wild statements
OF fanatics should not be believed until they
can bring conclusive proof. Tie opinions
and facts OF a prohibitionist are no more to
be taken at their face value than are the
sionaries.
Let every man give 1t serious thought.
II he believes the dispensary is a
greater evil than those which result from
the illegal sales, then he ought, by all means.
not to finch at the prospect OF doubling his
taxes for ordinary county purposes. While
half OF the school money would be cutoff, the
schools may be closed a little sooner and by
paying teachers q less salary, .no additional
tax may be levied for that purpose, but we
know Of no way of avoiding the doubling of
your taxes for ordinary county purposes, II
the same amount is to be raised. A small
matter like l 2 mills on ones taxes should
not influence any good citizens vote.
Personally, this editor will vote for what
he thinks for the best interest of the people
of the county, We opposed the establish
ment Of the dispensary, but It's beneficial
effects have somewhat modified my obj eotion
TO 1t.
We are not as much an advocate of the
dlspensary as we are opposed to the methods
which some good men have adopted to fight
the best Interests of the people Of the County
and the city, No man who is an enemy
of this town or who seeks through the
pretense OF religion or claim OF superior. virtue
can nave our support in fighting this town.
We are standing for Abbeville all OF the time
and against every enemy, no matter how
mnch religion he may profess. or how much
he may blaudish his superiority. We lower
our crest TO no man. Except to the Ma
ker and Ruler of the Universe we acknowl-
edge no master.
We ask each and every voter In this Coun
ty to give the subject of the coming election
his serious and prayerful thought emitting all
idea OF anything except the good Of the peo-
Pile. Let him cast his ballot according to the
dictates OF his own theart and not according
to the command OF any presumptuous or
self-righteous creature who may assume re-
sponsibility for your conscience.

This amount of SIS. 1915 was equally divided
between the schools, the roads and bridges,
and the Town OF Abbeville, each receiving
Sls,45S.
The taxable property of the County is, In

for the roads and bridges would necessitate
an additional levy of 3 l-2 mills-or more
than double the amount now levied for that
purpose.
During the year 1908, the sales were in
creased one.third while the higher price
charged realized two-thirds more profit. The
dispenser believes that the sales outside OF
abb eville and Greenwood counties were in
creased about sixty per cent. He thinks the
sales in Aboeville and Greenwood counties
have somewhat decreased within the last
year. Large shipments are made almost
daily to Georgia.
Now as to the taxes: The levy last year was

WILL PROTECT
REAL MINING

The First Assistant Secretary of
the Interior Department has made a
decision in the ease OF Yard and as
siciates In Plumas county. California,
who appropriated public forests I'M
der mineral locations. The forest
service contended the mineral lOca-
lions were q subterfuge. proved that
but So worth of precious metal has
been recovered from II 200 acres OF
land In six years and submitted the
case. IL was decided in favor OF the
government.
In reporting the matter the lnterio.
Department says:
II is the policy OF the government
to foster and encourage mining. The
law permits prospecting for minerals
upon National forests and allows the
perfecting OF mining claims upon Ma
tional Forests to the same extent as
upon vacant public land. The policy
of both the department of the Inter
Tor and the Forest Service is to fos-
ter and encourage legitimate minina
operations, and not to attack mining
locations which are believed to be in
any way valid. rs well as to assist IN
the development of valid mining
claims.
The law authorizes and the Forest
Service does grant. the free use ol
timber to miners in the preliminary
development Of their claims, unless
there Is "a sufficient stand Of timber
for that purpose upon the claim. The
locations made by Mr.. Yard and the
Mining Company have retarded the
ton OF the country lying along the
newly constructed Western Pacific
Railroad.
Since the claims are located in Il
more or less mineralizcd country. H.
which successful mining mas been
done in the past. the locations foi
265 900 acres have necessarily en-
braced some minera lands. and ~
the claimants have carried on no
mining operations. these mineral
lands have really been withheld from
legitimate miners. and the minera.
interfered with and retarded by the
fraudulent claims. No effort has been
made by the claimants to discover OF
develop minerals upon any of the
lands.
The decision of the First Assistant
Secretary of the Interior has estab.
lished Il policy which will enable the

sioners. who were in session this af-
ternoon at 2:30 O'Clock. TO the effect
that the Moulin Rouge burlesque
troupe would not be permitted to
show tonight at the New Phillips
theater. o. G. Murray. manager of the
theater, was asked. will there be a
show at the Phillips tonight" to
which he replied by nodding his head
in an affirmative manner.
The police commissioners had heard
this morning from different sources
that the performance put on by this
same troupe last evening was immor-
al, due to the suggestive cracks" and
other features.
Can do Without II.
They met this afternoon for the pur-
pose Of deciding whether to permit i.
and decided not to do SO, because they
believed the public could do wei
enough without seeing such shows.
One of the reasons why the commits
sioners stopped the show was due -
the fact that boys could gain access To
the performance.
Manager Murray arrived at head
quarters after the commissioners had
reached decision and was very much
surprised at the verdict He upheld
the show. stating that it was no worse
than those put on in the same theater
at times for the past fifteen years. He
said that the show, considering all its
suggestiveness, was a credit to the
performance Of 'Sapho." Just what
action will be taken by the police re-
mains to develop. but it is probable
that arrests will result If the perform
ance is put on.
