THREE PROTESTS ON
SALOON LOCATIONS
Montpelier License Commissioners Gave
Public Hearing on 20 Apph-
cations.

The Montpelier board OF license COM
missioners met last evening at the Mont
pelier city hall to consider the 20 APP
plications for liquor licenses. OF these
only eight can be granted in the capital
city. The hearing was public and a
large number attended.
No objections were made to any of
the applicants, personally, but protests
We're raised against three of the loca-
tions in which the applicants proposed
to establish saloons, these being the
store at 20 Main street, formerly oc-
cupied by Edward Gill and later by
Henry Jerome, the Massucca block at
20 Main street and the Tomasi block at
Is Main street.
The store at 70 Main street was OBJ
jected to by G. O. Boyles, A. H. Temple,
d. S. Wheatley and other merchants
who alleged it would be detriment to
their trade to have saloon so near.
The other two blocks were protested
against by the Central Vermont and
Montpelier & Wells River railroads, as
these two roads do not care to take the
responsibility for the number of fatal
tiles that might result from the near
ness of the proposed saloons to the rail
road tracks and bridges.
Protests against the location do not
hinder the applicant from getting a IL
cense, but would make it necessary for
him to find other quarters. Fifteen per-
sons are affected by the protest, mum
Der of the applicants having decided on
these locations in case they were granted
licenses.
AT the close of the public hearing, the
board of license commissioners, w. E.
Poole, James S. Haley and Calvin l..
Parmenter, went into executive session
and no statement has yet been given
out by them.

CHARGE PLOT
IN ULSTER
Law Repeats His ACCUSE
tons of the I'm
ionists
ASQUITH CHALLENGES
TO ADDRESS COMMONS
Full Opportunity for Dis
cussion Promised-Prove
Charges False

London, April ga stormy scene was
created in the House of Commons yes
terday when Andrew Bonar Law, leader
of the opposition, demanded judicial
inquiry into the naval and military
movements recently contemplated by the
government in Ulster. The Unionists
charge that these movements constituted
plot to provoke a rising in Ulster.
Premier Asquith refused a judicial in
CURRY, as he said the charges had been
proved false, but he challenged Mr.. Law
to make any accusations he wished to
make in the House itself when he would
be given the fullest opportunity for dis
eussion.
Amid the cheers and angry shouts of
their supporters, the two leaders took
their places alternately at the table,
challenging each other. Uproar followed
Mr.. Laws declaration that the state
ments made by Premier Asquith and his
colleagues had been proved untrue The
scene ended when, amid ministerial cries
of take your day for discussion" Mr..
Law said that after he had seen what
the promised white paper contained, he
would consider what steps it was worth
while to take
If Premier Asquith had nothing to be
ashamed of, why did he object, Mr.. Bo-
mar Law asked, to have the proof tested
where the statements could be taken I'M
der oath7
During the uproar which then occurred
Premier Asquith angrily replied; THAT
is an allegation against the honor of the
ministers. The only place where the
ministers could answer such an allega-
ton is on the floor of the House"

SIMPLE WAY TO
END DANDRUFF
Stop Falling Hair and Itching
Scalp

There is one sure way that has never
failed to remove dandruff at once, and
that is to dissolve it, then you destroy
it entirely. To do this, just get about
four ounces of plain, common liquid ar
Won from any drug store (this is all you
will need, apply it at night when re-
firing; use enough to moisten the scalp
and rub it in gently with the finger
tips.
BY morning most, if not all, of your
dandruf will be gone, and three or four
more applications will completely dis
solve, and entirely destroy, every single
sign and trace of it, no matter how
much dandruff you may have.
You will find all itching and digging
OF the scalp will stop instantly, and
your hair will be fluffy, lustruos, glossy,
silky and soft, and look and feel a hun
bred times better.
If you value your hair, You should
get rid of dandruf at once, for nothing
destroys the hair SO quickly 1t not
only starves the hair and makes it fall
out, but it makes it stringy, straggly,
dull, dry, brittle and lifeless, and every
body notices it.--Adyt.

Due West Commencement.

Commencement at Due West is in pro-
gress today, having begun with a sermon
to the graduating classes of the male and
female colleges on Sunday, followed Mon
day night by exercises in the literary So
cieties.
Tuesday, from time immemorial, has
been known as boys day, while Wednes-
days have been set apart to the sweet
girl graduates. 1t is SO still; and the Sec
ond day usually draws much the larger
crowd.
On the present occasion Erskine, the
male college, is celebrating It's seventy
fifth anniversary, and last evening, former
graduates and old pupils from all over the
Associate Reformed Synod, assembled at
q banquet, to renew old friendships and to
discuss the future needs and prospects OF
the college.
Erskine has In times past done a good
work for education in Abbeville county
and in the Associate Reformed Church. 1t
is the most important factor Of the church

means to bring it up to the highest stand
ard Of efficiency and to the broadest field
OF usefulness.
II the college is now confronted by any
danger more serious than another, it is
the fact that the church is scattered over
the entire South and church members iv-
ing at great distances from the college,
feel little or no personal interest in it.
The duties and obligations Of governing
and providing for the college then falls, in
large measure, IN those Immediately in
and not far distant from Due West.
Though this in a degree is unavoidable,
the people of Due West themselves should
use their utmost endeavor TO correct the
tendency. The more the college tends to-
ward Capitalization within a narrow zone,
the greater will be the burden of its friends
within that zone, and the less will 1t be
supported either In students or in friends
by those without that n .

THE PRI-
MARY RULES.

There seems t0 be difference of
opinion in various counties as to the
construction of subdivision &c" OF
section 8 of the rules governing the
primary. The subdivision reads:
SIN all other cases the voter must
enroll in the club nearest his place of
residence, calculated by the nearest
practicable route and can vote only
at the voting place of such club, and
the territory included by this test
shall be considered the club district
of such club"
The executive committee of An
derson county and of some other
counties have construed this rule to
mean that it is not necessary to ac-
tually lay off the voting districts
with metes and bounds, but distance
from established boxes shall consti-
tute the limits of the district, the
voter being required to enroll at his
nearest box or precinct.
p This conclusion is reasonable and
is a natural inference, but perhaps
when such Interpretation has been
made, executive committees have
overlooked the following in section
so of the rules: SIN the year 1914
each county committee shall meet 1T
the county court house On the first
Monday in June, at the call of the
respective county chairmen, and pro-
coed to lay out and designate each
club district and its boundaries as
provided in these rules" &c. The
inference from this is that, consider
ing the location of the voters home
with reference to the voting place,
the county committee is to lay out
the voting places with certain metes
and bounds.

TAG DAY.

Tag day in all its glory has been
set for Friday, June 9Th. Its pur'
pose is to raise funds for the city Ii
brary.
For the benefit of those who may
not know the why's and wherefores
of this particular observance, it
might be we'll to explain that the
prettiest girls in the city 60 about
with a lot of tags in their hands and
when they see a creature of the op-
posite sex they promptly hold him
up and relieve him of whatever cash
he may have on his person, and then
they tag him. After that he may
roam unmolested very much as a
muzzled dog does after he has been
made to comply with the law. Re.
calling one of Aesop's Fables, sit is
great fun for the boys but terror fol
the frogs"
But the city library must be sup
ported, and if the tight wads will
not call by and lay their offerings
voluntarily at the feet of the man
agement, it is but just that they be
held up in the street by that most
dangerous of all weapons: feminine
beauty.
Let every man take warning, and
let no man appear on the street with
less than ten dollars in his pocket.
The city library properly patron
lied and properly used can be made
one Of the most useful as well as one
of the most instructive agencies in
the city. The ladies realize this and
with their usual good sense they are
going to point the way to the gen.
tlemen.

THE COLUMBIA CONFER
ENCE.

1t was noised about, as it were
through a muller, that a conference
of Blease men, composed of one rep
r~esentative from each county, would
meet Monday night, in Columbia for
the purpose-well for what purpose /?
Some say for the purpose of boiling
out the candidates for Governor,
while others say that it is to outline
the plan of campaign, and to make
it plain that the Governor will have
no particular candidate for Governor
from amongst his supporters.
Evidently the news editor of The
State was not in the conference.
Anxious readers have conned the COL
umns of that paper to learn who will
be the Governors lieutenant, mas
much as there are several candidates
anxious for the job; but the search
for information is all in vain.
1t has been stated on pretty good
authority that personally, Senator
McLaurin stands very near the Gov
ernor, but when they would reach an
agreement there are other friends OF
the Governor who step in and say,
No.
Again, it is being said that Major
John G.. Richards has pretty strong
backing for preference, but when he
reaches for the flag, McLaArin's
friends step in and demand that he
march in ranks a while before Je-
coming color-bearer.
1t is whispered that Solicitor
Cooper while not exactly reaching
for the colors is camping near by.
Solicitor Zimmerman, Irby, Sims
and several others are well within
the ranks, but they seem just now to
be crowded away from the color staff.
Who then will be the standard
bearer? If the Governor has the po-
litical sagacity that we credit him

/ remember, as VIC were going a.
long, to nave heard Ben say, 81 tell
you boys 1 wasn't going to let that fell
low bite my nose off,"
While it is a fact that Clinkscales
had very large and prominent front
teeth. 1 have my doubts about his in
tending to use them in the fight, but
rather suspect that Ben, having got
ten enough Of it, used that as a pre-,
text for crying huff"
1 recall another very interesting
fight which I witnessed when a boy
attending school on the BLUE HILL
OF which school James M. Calhoun
was principal. This fight was between
two little scrawny fellows well match
ed in size and grit.
One was Charlie Dendy, who is
quite an old man now, living in New
Orleans and the other was Pat Tag
CART, brother of our fellow townsman,
Jas. IaSSart. 1 tnlnK ne is long since
dead.
The fight occurred in the fiat which
is just in zeal of the power house, and
was at that time divided by a small
branch. 1t took place as we were re-
turning home from school.
Speaking accurately there were two
fights, and was declared a draw" by
the referees.
In the first engagement Charlie got
the better of the fight, but Pat was
rot assisted and after We had crossed
the branch he proposed to have it over
to which Charlie agreed. In the Sec
