The Dispensary Election in Sumter
Sumtor.--From present Indications
1t would seem that each day Is going
to bring some new feature in the re-
cent dispensary election. A box was
brought i'll from Bloom Hill, small
precinct in the county, which seem
ingly had been for tho time being
overlooked by both OF the contesting
parties, and while tho count at this
precinct did not materially affect the
result or the election, 1t cut down the
prohibition lead to ten votes. Then,
1t Is reliably stated that II anti-dis-
pensary votes which were polled in
envelopes at Ward were counted in
tho published report, and advocates
OF the dispensary declare that If
these challenged votes are thrown
out the victory will be theirs.
