Many Warren People Have Done So.
When the kidneys are weak they
give unmistakable warnings that
should not be, ignored. By examin-
ing the urine and treating the kid
neys upon the first sign Of disorder,
many days Of suffering may be
saved. Weak kidneys usually expel
a dark, ill-smelling urine, full of
"brickdust'' sediment and painful in
passage: 49, Sluggish kidneys often
cause a dull pain in the small of the
back, headaches, dizzy spells, tired,
languid feelings and frequent rheu-
matte twinges.
Doan's Kidney Pills are for the kid
neys only; they help weak kidneys to
rid the blood of uric poison. There
is no better recommended remedy.
Read the statement that follows:
H. A. Wyand, 121 Central Ave. S.,
Crookston, Mimi, says: "My back
began to give me some trouble.
Whether the aching was due to a
strain I can't say, but I was of the
opinion that it was caused by some
disorder of my kidneys. Wanting to
remove the trouble in time and hay
ing heard Doan's Kidney Pills we'll
spoken of, began using them. I
didn't take them long, however, as
the aching and pain ceased in short
time. have never had sign of the
trouble SINCE"

discussion at time so close to the
day fixed for adjournment that it
was impracticable to give it three
readings in both houses. The prohl-
bition bill already passed by the
house had come over to the senate
and the senate dispensary bill was
then moved as an amendment to it,
only the title of the house bill being
retained. After strenuous opposl-
ton and a flibuster by the seven an
ti-Tillmanite senators the bill was
passed, three of those aligned with
the reform faction voting against it.
One of these three was D. E. Finley,
senator from York and now repre-
sentative in congress. The new law
included the essential principles of
the present dispensary system. 1t
was passed in December, 1892, and
took effect July l, 1898. 1t provide
ed for the establishment of State
wholesale dispensary and sub-dispen-
saries in all the counties except
Marlboro, which the late Senator w.
D. Evans, of that county, by resolute
efforts, succeeded in causing to be
exempted.
The constitutionality of the law
was attacked in the State courts

Among the passengers on a train
on one-track road in the middle

Presently the train stopped to take
on water, and the conductor neglect
ed to send: back flagman. An ex-
press came along, and, before it could
be stopped, bumped the rear end of
the first train.
The drummer was lifted from his
seat and pitched head first. into the
seat ahead. His silk hat. was JAM
med clear down over his ears.
He picked himself up and settled
back in his seat. No bones had been
broken He drew a long breath,
strightened up and said:

WILD RIDE UPON ELEPHANT.
Woman Had + .citing Time on Fright
ened Animal.

New York, Jan. 22.-The story OF
a woman's wild ride on the back OF
a frightened elephant is related in
suit for $4,000 damages brought
by Mrs. Willie Gee against the New
York Geological society, under whose
care the elephant was kept in Bronx
park.
One of the interesting details OF
the suit is that Mrs. Gee alleges the
Geological society used the elephant
as common carrier for carrying
passengers for pay. She charges that
it was the duty of the society to pro-
vide her with safe place to ride on
and that the elephant should have
been dOcile.
Instead, she says, she was sitting
on the elephants back when the ami
NAL began to run around the enclos-
ure and then made dash for the
doorway into the elephant house.
Employees of the park called out to
her to Jump off the elephants back
and she did so just in time to dodge
the door casing as the elephant went
through the doorway. In the fall
Mrs. Gee AYERS she suffered injuries
for which she seeks $4,000 dam
ages.

She Had a Right to Go.

Visiting New York friends is an
Illinois girl, young and sweet and
pretty. One evening she was out with
a party of people older than herself,
and after the theatre some one sug-
gested that they go to rather lively
restaurant and dance while. The
others objected on the ground that it
might not be the proper place for a
young and unsophisticated girl like
Miss Blank.
oh" she said with quite an air,
'you needn't bother about my youth
or my unsophistication. I am 21
years of age and I voted at the No.
vember election"
No other woman in the party had
record like that, and the Illinois
girl was taken along without further
question.
The Bamberg herald. [volume] (Bamberg, S.C.) 1891-1972, 1916-01-27

Opposition to the law was intense
throughout the State, but it was
generally and firmly Supported by
Senator Tillman S factlCn, who we're
a decided majority OF tie people. In
the spring OIL 1894 occurred the
Harrington war; as it was popu-
larry called, which resulted in the
killing and wounding of three or
four men Of both factions, resulting
in the proclamation by the governor
that the counties of Darlington and
Florence were in state Of insurrec-
ton. About a month later the su-
preme court of the State, then COM
posed of Justices Simpson, Meow
an and Pope, declared the law .un-
constitutional. Mr.. Pope dissented.
For somes weeks following Whiskey
was retailed freely without license
as there was no license law in exist
ence and the dispensary law had
been held null and void. In August
the personnel of the supreme court
was changed, new test case was
brought and the former decision was
reversed. The dispensary system
was again in force. At the session
of the legislature of 1898 and at SUBJ
sequent sessions the law underwent
various changes, the essential regu-
lative methods of selling intoxicants
being retained. In 1895 the consti-
tutional convention incorporated the
dispensary plan in the organic law of
the State in a clause which Senator
Tillman has said that he wrote.
In 1905 the Brice law, introduced
by Senator j. Steele Brice, of York,
was enacted which permitted county
option as between dispensaries and
prohibition, and very soon the dis
pensaries were voted out of numbers
of counties, especially in the Pied
mont section. This was the begin
ming of the downfall of the State dis
pensary.
In 1905 and 1906 an investigation
of the system was undertaken by
committee of the legislature and it
resulted in unearthing far-reaching
scandals and frauds in the States
liquor business, long suspected and
alleged, but not hitherto proved.
Endeavors were made to tighten the
law and eliminate possibilities of
fraud, but the legislature did not sue
ceed. In 1906 M. F. Ansel, of Green
vile, was elected governor on an
anti-State dispensary platform and
general assembly in sympathy with
this idea was elected with him. fhe
legislature. in 1902 abolished the
State dispensary and substituted the
county dispensary system by what is
known as the CareyrCothran law. In
August, 1909, the 21 counties hav-
ing dispensaries, by order Of the
legislature, held referendums as to
their abolition Or retention and all
the counties except six voted dry"
Since then about nine counties have
voted in county dispensaries.
The action of the legislature of
1915 submitted Statewide prohi7
bition law to a State referendum
which resulted in an election in
September, 1915, in accepting the
law. The Statewide prohibition of
the liquor traffic which begins today
is in accordance with that act and
referendum.-Columbia State, of
January 1.

LOCAL NEWSPAPER
Is INDISPENSABLE

The average local town paper
is worth thousands Of dol ars an
nually to its community for the
free service it renders. As q
constant booster and promoter
Of local news or information it
is indispensable.
Did you ever stop TO think
what you would do without your
home paper? This is not an idle
question. What would yo do if
your town paper should indefin-
iteIy suspend publication?
Having no newspaper would
mean a return to the old Roman
method of posting information
on public bulletin boards A call
for teachers examination would
necessitate posting notices at
dozens Of places in the county al
greater expense than the charge
in the loca papers. Farmer
Smith could not announce a sale
to all his nelPhbors except by
laboriOus methods more costly
than newspaper space. Marriage
and death notices most certainly
would not fifty adorn public bu =
letin boards. Those who are in
terested in farm or town i'm
provements would make pro-
gress but tediously without
newspaper support.
Move just have to have our.
town newspaper. We want to-
know what other folks in the
county are doing. The most in
terestjng information in the
world is knowledge Of what 9th

Too Much Originality In . Driver.

Mr.. Adams, the lecturer whc comes
to US soon. says the most narrowing
experience he ever had was sixteen
mile drive across the young mountains
OF southwestern Wisconsin on a pitch
dark night, with driver so drunk he
didn't know where he was driving
most OF the time Several times Mr..
Adams had to get out and, with the
aid OF his ever ready searchlight, find
the road and get the team back to It
again. Once when the roughness Of
the riding convinced him the buggy
was being driven to the side OF the
road Mr.. Adams said to the driver:
you are out of the road. The road
Is over here"
The driver replied, "Thish ish the
road over here too"
"Oh. yes" said Mr.. Adams, Il know
that's the road over there. too, but
this Is the beaten track over here"
Well" said the driver in his drunk
en- drawl, Il don't like to drive in q
beaten track. just like to make q
track OF my own"
