Columbia, S. C\, Nov. It. ?The
overwhelming mnjoiity with
which the pooplu of Cherokee
f % I
county yesieruay voted out I ho
disponsaries. in tho faca of Sonutor
Tillman's speech in advocacy
of tho dispensary hero recently
mid this being the grst election
of the kind under tlie amended
lirice bill, bus created a rude jar
in dispensary circles hero to-day.
The county ejected its dispensaries
decisively, although in so doing
it threw away $11,000 a year by
the act; the dispensary income to
tho city and e"unity amounted t >
about $1,500 a year and tho hnif
mill tax which the amended llrice
bill requires a county voting out
dispensaries to levy to enforce
prohibition comes to inure than
this. The result in Cherokee
has greatly encouraged the advocates
of tho original Hrice hill,
which gave the counties the rieht
w n
to vote their dispensaries without
extra tax and without forfeiting
any part of their desponsary
school fund. Sins anti- lispon.
ry victory increases the prohility
of the success of those who will
renew the tight in the coming
Legislature for the enactment of
the original Brice Bill. It will
encourage other counties to renew
their tight aginst their dispousa*
ries. It has renewed the talk
which has been growing in volume
throughout the State the diapen ary
macnino is reeking with corruption
and that the coio of the
trouble is located in the central
dispensary here; it caused a lovi,
val of recont talk of ex-members
of the board showing sudden and
great increase in their nronertv
? 41 "i
holdings and cash balances; it has
mademore insistant the complaints
which haro been heard through
OUt the State that Htnnrlnnl u?wl
reliable whiskey houses have no
chance in the competiongfor business
with the South Carolina
dispensary, and that as a result
the meanest grades of stulT are put
upon the patronsof the disponsary
The storm seems to be gathering
force, and unless thero are decided
changes which will reoganize
and purify the syste m it 13
not unlikely that tho next Legislature
will sweep the whole business
from the State.
DISASTROUS WRECKS.
Carelessness is responsible for
many a railway wreck and tho
same causes are making human
wrecks of sulTorers from Throat
and Lung trouble. But since the
advent of Dr.King's Now Discovery
for Consumption, Coughs and
Colds, even the worst casos can bo
cured,and hopless resignation is no
longer necessary. Mrs Lois
Dragg of Dorchester, Mass , is
one of many whoso life was saved
by Dr. King's New Discovery

Anxious Moments.
Some of the most anxious hours
of a mother's life are those when
the little ones of tho household
have the croup. There is no other
medicine so etTectivo in this terriblo
malady as Foley's Iloney and
Tar. It is a household favorite
fcr throat and lung troubles, and
as it contains no opiates or other
poisons, it can be safely given.

to his side. "1 am as innocent of
this crime as any one in this court
house, and ! hope some day to
have the opportunity to vindicate
myself."
This statement was made in a

A Pathetic Scene.

l'bis morning after a night iu a

prison cell, he a woke with cleir
eyes, and being unable to put up
a cash bond of $5-00 remained
a prisoner. Wife and bah/ and
old mother missed his accustomed
homo coining, and this morning
appeared in his behalf Tho
bond required was $5.00 and the
poor oldjmothor had $4 38. This
she passod through tho bars and
went out in search of tho additional
TO cents. *
The wife, not more than a child
in years and ways, stood by with
tho baby boy in her arms. The
little fellow, bright, gay, joyful,
little realizing the sad plight of
his parents, cooed and crowed in
delight when permitted to thrust
his little hands through the bars
The child with proper ivnironment
and training might grow up to ho
a power in the land, but now the
father is a drunkard and each
hard carnod penny goes for drink
and fines.
This morning tho man, himself
behind the bars, and the wifo and
baby just on the outside, is overcome
with remorse. Tho baby
crows with delight, the woman
hangs her head in shame, and the
man, shamefacedly, swears that ho
will never take another drink. It
is tho same old story of promises
