The Spartanburg Journal says: "If P'elder and Governor Blease would. tell all they know abhout dispensary atters from the purchase of the first invoice of whiskey, it would make a book worth .readings." May be so. Ftut we do not believe that Felder nows much, as 'he would publish that book he promised. As to Gov. Blease's1 nowledge, we have no way of judg ing what he knows except what he let out about Felder, and that seems o have completely silenced that gen eman, so far as dispensary revela-f :ions are concerned. Felder was eith r indulging in hot air wnen he said e would publish his book, or 'he has een scared into silence by what the ther side threatens to reveal regard ng him.
