MUST IE a NEW COMMISSION.
D~ispcnsary Matters not Finally Clos
cd-No Action by Governor.
(News and Courier Specially

" - ANS"o MIN oDSCltl.J
Columbia, March 16.---The work
Of winding up the affairs of the old
State dispensary has not been COM
pleted, and It will be necessary for
Governor Blease to appoint a new
commission, since he has dismissed
the old members, who have for the
past four years worked SO faithfully
In the interest Of South Carolina,
and who have saved from a wreck
approximately $500, 900.
Practically all claims have been
settled by the commission, vet the
appeal Of the Carolina Glass Com
pany Is pending. The attorneys for
the company have already given no.
tice that the case will be carried to
the United States Supreme Court.
The attorneys for the glass company
have also stated that they will bring
an action against the individual
members Of the commission to re-
cover $1,000 collected in Richland
county under a ruling by the South
Carolina Supreme Court.
Governor Blease, when asked to-
day if he had appointed a new com
mission, said NO" He has the mat
ter under advisement.
Following the action OF Governor
Blease In making charges against the
commission and denying the mem
bers the right to a fair and thor
ough Investigation, it is expected that
the General Assembly will pass the
measure providing for the investiga-
ton over the Governors veto should
he take such action. He has prac-
tically admitted that he would not
sign the investigation act because of
the members already appointed from
the Senate.
The commission would have been
~disbanded at the last session of the
Gencral Assembly If the Carolina
Glass Company claim had been set
tied. and the company had not ap-
pealed to the United States Supreme
Court. The members were glad to
be relieved Of the work. The work
had not been completed when the
General Assembly was in session, so
1t was necessary to go over for ano-
Their year.
One of the main legal grounds set
forth by Governor Blease in dismiss
ing the members Of the commission
was that the Attorney General did
not have the right to mol pross cases.
1t Is a recognized law and custom
that all prosecuting officers have the
right to mol pross cases where it is
deemed best in the discretion of the
officer. -
There is much speculation as to
who will be appointed on the new
~dispensary commission by the Cover
nor.

NJ l.. West af Guthrie, Okla, was
in Dallas yesterday at the Southland.
He said:

much as we did, for we had built
hall there which we let the state gov
ernment nave for 81 a year and now
about $4,000 per year is being paid
for such accommodations.
Il am Of the opinion that Dallas is
certainly equal to any Of the better
Southern cities for progressiveness
and activity Dallas is in the same
class with Memphis and Nashville,
and she shows every sign Of going
right ahead. 1t is a live town. When
tWenty-stOry building can ne put up
in town and cause no more stir
than the new hotel has caused here,
it is a sure sign that the people are
moving right along and determined to
have Just such buildings

a very beautiful building and it will
make an excellent impression among
Strangers. My work takes me over
many parts of the South, and ! know

STORIES ABOUT PEOPLE


The Magician From GeSrgta.
General Greenyilie NJ. Dodge, presl
dent Of the Society OF the Army OF
the Tennessee. was talking one Mem
ori4l day in Council Bluffs about rail
roading
AThe best piece of railroad work
ever heardoa, he said, was perform
ca in 1864 in Maryland. The Confed-
crates were in great need Of a locomo-
tive and their only hope was to cap
ture one. So a small band Of men
was selected from Lees army and
placed under the command Of a tall
Georgian who had been foreman of
quarry and knew good deal about
derricks and rigging.
We'll. the Georgian took his men
into Maryland, they tore up a sec
tion Of the Baltimore & Ohio tracks
tagged the first train and, with
nothing but rope dragged a locomo
tive fifty seven miles up hills, across
streams, through woods and swamps,
till they struck line built by the
Ionfederacy.
''When the president OF the Balti-
more & Ohio heard OF this feat he
would not believe it, He went out
and personally inspected the route,
and ne said on his return that it was
the most wonderful piece Of engineer
ing that had ever been accomplished.
After the war he sent for the tall
Georgian and, on the strength Of that
one exploint, made him roadmaster
OF the whole Baltimore &Ohio.
