What Is The Trouble?

The managers of election in Sum.
ter and Williamsburg declared that
the anti-dispensary forces had won
the election, in the former by IL
votes and in the latter by Sc votes.
The official report by the county
board reversed this vote and brought
out the dispensary ahead in Sumter
by a votes and in Williamsburg by
2. Now it is a significant fact that
if the same tactics had been adopted
in the last general election, Blease
never would have been elected Gov.
ernor. At Sumter we have been
told that every member of the coun-
ty board is a dlspensary advocate AMI
we presume that it is the same way
in Williamsburg. In Lexington the
managers returns showed that the
dispensary won by a votes. Though
the prohibitionists protested, show
ing that there were gross irregular
tiles practiced, yet the county board
sustained the managers returns. 1t
looks as if the county boards ruled
according to whose OK was gored."
We hope the State board will rem
der justice to whomsoever DUE
