days will have carload on ex

tomobile is here to stay and is
an all-round business and pleas

which travel is almost as mex

For use in the country it is
equally adapted, as it's ample

and J. V. Wallace, State Dispensary
Commission -Gentlemen: I note in the
newspapers that you have employed
attorneys to represent your commls-
sion in further winding up the affairs
Of the late State dispensary. I have
no means of knowing whether this
newspaper statement is correct or not,
but I beg to advise you, as I did ON
Monday, the 29th instant, when you
asked my approval Of the employment
Of an attorney or attorneys, suggest
ing the name of Mr.. W. A. Holman, CT
the Charleston bar, that I could not
give my approval thereto for thezTe
son that your predecessors in Office
found it no longer necessary to en-
ploy general attorney for the CON-
mission, dispensed with the further
services Of the Hon. W. F. Stevenson,
who had performed this service, and
relied solely and. wholly upon my Of
fee as attorney general for the perfor-
nance of the necessary duties in this
respect. I also stated to- you, which I
again reiterate, that if you present
facts to me which show to my salts
faction that it is necessary to incur
this additional expense, that would
then determine whether the attorney
suggested by you is suitable one and
in a position to render effective ser
vice for the State, ard approve or dis

judgment.
II beg to advise you again that if
the reports in the newspapers are COR
rect, that you have employed Mr.. Hol-
man or any other attorney, that the
same is without my approval and
against my specific refusal to ap-
prove and contrary to the act Of 1907,
providing for winding up the dispen-
sary and also contrary to the act of
1909, in which the employment of
counsel to represent the State is reg
ulated. I therefore, ask that you kind
~ advise me whether you have en-
ployed counsel in disregard Of my
refusal to approve of the same. -.
Yours very truly,

China Rends the Draoon


For centuries China has been bound
IN political slavery. So oppressed and
beniehted were the masses that it
seemed as II they could never arise to
claim their birthright Of freedom. But
China has awakened. In a patriotic
and cultured subject, DR.. Sun Vat Sen.
she found deliverer from the rule Of
the Manchus, and people have thrown
cff the folds Of the Imperial dragon
which had almost destroyed them.
From London has come private adj
vices that DR.. Sun, q scholar and dip
lomat well known In London. New
York and Paris, Is to become Presi.
dent OF the first provisional govern
ment now being established at ShanR-
ri. the capital Of the Republic OF Chi
ma, and that by the first OF the year
the new government will be fully es-
tablished. The old China has ali but
passed away and in its place has come
new republic with a constitution
promising liberty, justice, self govern
ment and brotherly love. The change
Is almost too great to credit. DR.. Sun
promised that all foreign rights sb;
be- fully respected, and foreign enter
prises will be encouraged, He appeals
to the Powers to permit the solid es-
enlistment Of the new government dc.
clartng that the Chinese will not sub
NIT to the retaining Of power by t.
Manchus.

How Germany Saves Lives.

A German physician living in
New York has made a study of
statistics in his old and his adop-
ted home and concludes that
Germans live longer than Amer
leans do. He expected to find it
so. These are the reasons he
gives for lower death rate OF
Germans:
German mothers nurse their
children more generally than
gene rally than American moth
ers do.
German parents do not hasten
the education of their children
as we do, and their children are
not put to work so early nor in
so large numbers.
The German government pro-
tects industrial workers in their
employment as we do not. An
Asch fir, an Austin reservoir
disaster, or a Cherry mine ca
tastrophe could not happen there.
Germany has a pure food and
drug act more drastic than ours
and enforced better.
GERMANY has old age pensions
to prolong and make happier the
declining years of its workers.
The German physician gener-
alizes a bit too confden ly. The
German workingman and work
ingwomen are hardworkers, and
children are often Put to work
very young. But there is q
kernel of ruth in every one OF
hi comparisons. We may learn
much N government efficiency
from the Germans. Syracuse
