GOVERNOR STOPS BEER DELIVERY

"This section makes it clear that
the sale to other than beer dispen-
saries is prohibited, and consequently
it is quite certain that the delivery by
these breweries to any dealers other
than the Charleston county dispen-
sary is plain violation of the law"
says Gov. Manning in a letter ad-
dressed to John Marshall, secretary of
the Charleston dispensary board.
81 have read that statement with
great care and it is clear to me that
the administration of the statutes reg
ulating the sale of beer in the way
that has been adopted by your board
is not in accordance with law" says
the governor in reply to a statement
from the board outlining the method
of sale of beer.
The letter of Gov. Manning con-
tinues:
"The section provides that the sale
shall be made in the manner pro-
vided in the constitution. Section 2,
article 6, says: Provided, That no
license shall be granted to sell alco-
holic beverages in less quantities than
one-half pints or to sell them between
shutdown and sunrise or to sell them
to be drunk on the premises"
Violation of Law.
81 am constrained to request the
county board of control, in their ad-
ministration of the statutes, to con-
form strictly to the provisions of the
law and constitution to which have
referred to above. The delivery of
beer as described in the statement
which you have sent me is in viola
tion of the spirit and letter of the
law. As this matter has been brought
to my attention and criticisms of the

DEMAND FOR PAPER MONEY.
Increased Requisition Shows Improve
ment of Business.

Washington, Sept. 21.-Improved
business conditions are indicated by
the demand for paper money, accord
ing to treasury officials.
To meet the demand for United
States notes and silver and gold GER
tificates, Secretary McAdoo today
authorized the director of the bureau
of engraving and printing to increase
the daily output of paper money by
$4,000 sheets. Director Ralph of the
bureau, said the increased demands
show that money is circulating more
freely. Mr.. McAdoo's order does not
increase the total amount of paper
money, but is designed to keep up the
reserve stocks of the treasury in order
that notes which come in for redemp-
ton may be reissued Immediately.

Where Cases Are to Be
Heard.

Heard.
Winnsboro, Sept. 21.-A motion was
made this afternoon by counsel for
the defendants asking the court to
change the place of trial of the cases
against Jesse Morrison, James Rawls
and Ernest Isenhower for the murder
of Sheriff A. d. Hood, Raleigh Boul-
ware and Jules Smith, to another
county, and very promptly after hear
ing the arguments of counsel Judge
Rice stated that he had no doubt that
there should be change of venue and
the motion should be granted. There
fore, he said, he would pass an order
changing the place of trial of these
cases to some other county in the
States. The motion was made by ].
w. Hanahan and A. L. CASTOR.
All affidavits submitted in support
of the motion were in substance that
fair and impartial jury as contem-
plated by law could not be obtained
in Fairfield county by reason of the
fact that the vast majority of the
citizens had formed or expressed their
opinion in the cases.
Solicitor j. X Henry did not op-
pose the motionSy but stated that per
sonally he desired the cases tried in
Fairfield county, to have this county
bear what shame or glory there was
to be in the cases. However, he said
there was considerable feeling, so far
as he had been able to ascertain, on
both sides, and as his only aim in the
cases was to secure fair and i'm
partial trial for the commonwealth
and the defendants he would leave the
matter entirely for the courts de-
cision.
Judge Rice stated that the question
had given him much concern and that
he was satisfied there were SO much
feeling and excitement in this county
that the cases should be heard else
where in county free of passion.
Judge Rice stated that he expected to
-Aa----o~~~-s-Sixuv-1UrIeu Inc
cases and that ne wouid- not deregare
this service to another judge.
No announcement was made as to
where the cases are to be tried, the
judge stating that he would determine
this question later and inform coun-
sci of his decision tomorrow morning.
