S1OO Reward, 500.

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dread disease that science has
been able to cure in all it's stages,
and that is catarrh. Halls Catarrh
Cure is the only positive cure now
known to the medical fraternity.
Catarrh being a constitutional dis
ease, requires a constitutional treat
ment. Halls Catarrh Cure is taken
internally, acting directly upon the
blood and mucous surfaces of the
system, thereby destroying the foun-
dation of the disease, and giving the
patient strength to build up the con-
stitution and assisting nature in do
ing it's work. The proprietors have
so much faith in it's curative powers
that they offer one hundred dollars
for any case that it fails to cure.

Blease to Have Opposition in 1912

Columbia, Feb. 25-Supposing
that some man in the summer of
1912 decides that he would like to
be governor of South Carolina-just
as Governor Blease decided in the
summer of 1908, when he went after
Governor Ansel's job and failed
there would be regular, "every four
year" scramble for the position.
And the thing that leads really to
the supposition is the fact that Gov
ernor Blease himself smashed all pre-
cedent by opposing Mr.. Ansel at the
end of the latter's first term, and
would have no right to object to op-
position.
Maj. John G. Richards, Jr., rail-
road commissioner by appointment
of Governor Ansel, has been asked if
he intended to try for the place two
years from now. Major Richards was
a candidate last summer, and, in
spite of his remarkably able speeches
and knowledge of the States needs,
was left out of the running. "You
may say" he said the other day,
that John G. Richards expects to
run for governor again" Maj. Rich
ards has been told by many persons
other than his political supporters
that he would have their influence
and support were he to become a can
didate again, and he most likely will
get in the running. He is compara-
lively young yet, and is doing good
work as railroad commissioner.
Hon. Thos. Mcleod, former lieu
tenant governor and strong candi-
date in the last campaign, has been
mentioned as probable opponent of
Mr.. Blease in 1912, but Mr.. Mcleod
is not doing any talking. He is busy
with his law practice at Bishopville,
is happy with his family and seems
just as contented as If he had graft
fed any political ambitions. Mr.. Nc
Leod is also comparatively young.
Since Acknowledgements have
been known to aspire to higher hon.
ors, Hon. Chas. A. Smith, of Tim
monsville, who now holds this posi-
ton, may enter the campaign. Mr..
Smith is good citizen and is well
qualified for the duties of the Office.
1t would not be at all surprising
if these gentlemen should be found
in the field in 1912 with Mr.. Blease.
Stranger things happen in South
Carolina every day.

Accidentally Killed.

Spartanburg, Feb. %. Roper
Moore, a boy II years Of age, was
killed by his brother, Tully Moore, 13
years of age, at their home, five miles
from Wexford, in this county, late
to-day. The killing was an accident,
the gun, a breech loading shotgun,
being discharged while the boys were
playing with it on the front porch,
while William Moore, their father,
sat on the steps. The entire load
struck the boy in the back of the
neck and he died instantly.

NEW YORK'S WATER PROBLEM.
New Plant to Cost Half as Much as
Panama Canal.

One of the difficult problems with
which all the great cities of the world
must deal is that of a water supply.
Water is a necessity everywhere, and
it must be had at whatever cost. New
York has been wrestling with the
problem for years, and is now work
ing out a scheme by which water
supply is to be brought down from
the Catskill mountains, a distance of
100 miles.
To begin with it required feat in
the science of surveying about equal
to that with which any of the worlds S
greatest engineers have grappled.
The work has been in progress for a
number of years, and it will be a
number of years before it will be
completed. The cost to the city it
is estimated will be s161, 100000,
half as much as it will cost the nation
to construct the Panama canal that
is to connect the two great oceans.
One of the feats accomplished was
the construction of two immense re-
servoirs one of which it is claimed
will hold enough water to float all
the navies of the world.
1t is reckoned that with the COM
pletion of the work now in hand New
York, no matter what the growth in
population may be, will have an am
pie supply of water for the next so
years. If the population of the city
continues to increase in that time as
it has in the past ten years, why
New York. will probably be the great
est city in the world, and the water
supply problem will be on with even
greater pressure than it has been in
recent years.
But whatever the cost, whatever
may become necessary to secure it,
even if towns and villages must be
removed or obliterated so as to make
way for water that comes to the great
metropolis, it will have to be had

"Please be kind enough to furnish
me at once, or have same furnished
to me, copy of the agreement be-
tween the commission appointed to
wind up the Affairs of the State dis
pensary and Thomas B. Fielder, and
the one with Anderson, Fielder,
Roundtree & Wilson, and also the
one with w. F. Stevenson and B. l..
Abney, Esqs. Your prompt atten-
ton to this will be appreciated"
Constituting himself as kind of
investigating committee, Gov. Blease
addressed the above message to Dr..
w. ]. Murray, the chairman of the
State dispensary commission.
Some interesting developments are
expected to-day when the commission
meets to decide on the matter of
furnishing Gov. Blease with the in
formation asked for.
Gov. Blease has not yet signed the
measure passed by the general as
sembly to provide for the investiga-
ton of the acts of the commission,
an act passed in good faith by the
general assembly in answer to a
special message from the governors
office.
In a later message Gov. Blease in
timated that the commission had not
observed the law by not Immediately
winding up the affairs of the old
State dispensary. This commission
once investigated some rumors about
the conduct of the then Senator
Blease while the Lanahan claim was
being adjudicated.
, The following is the last letter Of
Gov. Blease to DR.. w. J. Murray, the
chairman of the State dispensary
winding-up commission:
Your letter of the 22nd inst, re-
ceived. AS your board is going to
meet I will thank you to have a full
report of each and every transaction
of theirs sent to me, since they were
appointed, giving me the exact
amount of moneys which they have
received, the disposition made of it
and why the law has not been COM
piled with in regard to the winding
up of this matter, as provided in the
act, at the earliest date practicable,
it now being more than four months
since the act was approved by the
governor of the State.
81 would be very much pleased to
have this report at your earliest con-
venience, as matter now pending
in my hands will not be decided un-
til you have had time to comply with
this request"
The following letter was addressed
to the governor by DR.. Murray in re-
sponse to the first letter asking for
information:
"Your letter asking for certain in
formation in reference to winding up
the affairs of the State dispensary is
at hand.
"In response will say that l am
notifying the members of the COM
mission to meet Friday of this week,
at which time your request for in
formation will be acted upon.
Il feel assured that the commits
sion will take pleasure in giving you
any desired information concerning
any of it's acts and doings." ."-Colum-

ably the most important Of these at
this time, is the Hitchcock farm in
Aiken county. On this farm not only
the practical and scientific modern
farming is taught, in so far as it re-
lates to agriculture, but all the al
lied lines of the farmers business
are shown in the latest and most
successful ways of modern farming.
On the Hitchcock farm is one of
the most modern hygienic cow, and
dairy barns in the country. Here the
dairy herd is kept under the closest
inspection, and every item in the
production of milk and butter is care
fully weighed in the balance of prac-

barn is a model of convenience and
healthfulness for the animals kept
in it, as we'll as from the standpoint
of convenience for the farmer.
The farm is equipped with electric

the place is electrically driven. This
is accomplished at little first cost and
at practically nothing for upkeep, by

One stormy night the train reached

when Miss Matthison stepped to the

THE CIGAR INDUSTRY
IN PENSACOLA

Editor Pensacola Journal.
Please permit me small space IN
your columns to expose a trick which
unconscious Pensacolians are not
aware of, and the reason why Pensa-
vana cigar manufactures Of this
country to locate branches here as they
do In the eastern part Of this state.
The reason for this is that Pensacola
has for years been regarded as a te-
barrier cigar manufacturing city (te-
barrier In Spanish means fakir of the
Gypsey arts.) wish to state ners
that the M. Gonzalez Cigar Manufac-
turing Co. does not belong In that
category Of fake factories. This manu-
factory works on high industrious
principles.
What Pensacola must do is to clear
these cigar factories OF the Capt Kidd
class out Of it's domain. The main oh
ject Of these pirates is to infringe theil
product by misrepresenting ii on ths
unsuspecting public.
The product of these factories is

goods as clear Havana cigars ant

method they bunco thousands of greer
