The County Board of Control Meet and Appoint R. C. Maybin Dispenser Has He a Majority of the Free hold Voters to His Petition? The county board of control for New berry County held a meeting last Fri day and appointed R. C. Maybin the dispenser of liquors for this place. The Herald and News stated two weeks ago that he did not have a majority of the free-hold voters to his list, and we have no reason to change the opinion then expressed. No doubt that the board thinks otherwise, for we believe they intended to act in accordance with the law. The board held its session with closed doors, or rather would not let but one person appear before them at a time. Several persons had requested that their names be taken from the petition, and in some cases Mr. Maybin had been given notice before the petition, was filed, and in one case he had promised to take the name oft, but the petition was filed with all the names as originally signed, and the board said they had an opinion from the Attorney-General that a name could not be taken off after the petition was filed; so itistood. This will be a lesson to some persons to be a little more care ful in the matter of signing petitions. The following is a paper presented to the board at the meeting last Friday: THEY ASK THESE NAMES WITH DRAWN. To the Board of Control for Newberry Coon ty-Gentlemen: You will find our names on one or both of the applications for the ap pointmentof a Dispenser for Newberry. A e placed our names there undera misapprehen sion, and we respectfully ask that they be erased, as we are not willing to be regarded as signers when you come to pass upon the ap plicationq. Wm. P. HOUSEAL. C. C. McWHIRTER. ' Hos. E. EPTING. R. C. WILLIAMs. J. S. RuCssELL. June 9, 1893. A good many persons signed the peti tion of Mr. Maybin thinking that it was not also a petition for the estab lishment of a dispensary. Mr. Epting says that Mr. May bin promised him that he would take his name off, but did not do it. They were all need4d to make the requisite number, and then if the board had gotten a full and cor rect list of the freehold voters of the town he would not have the number, even leaving on all the names that were requested to be erased. Mr. Sease, the clerk, enquired of the Governor if any fee would be allowed for looking up the correct list, and was told that there was no provision for any such allowance, but that the books of the town clerk and county auditor were the places from which to secure a correct list of the freehold voters. No one can blame the clerk for not caring to look up the matter without pay, for it involves a good deal of labor. But in order to act intelligently it was nec essary for the board to have a correct list. They took and acted upon the list procured from Mr. Fair, the town clerk. That list, which we publish below, contains 141 names. It is the list gotton from Mr. Fair's book. It is not complete and the board was told of two ot three names of freeholA voters that are not on it, but we presume that for good and sufficient reasons they did not use them. The following is the list of freehold voters used by the board: LIST OF FREEHOLD VOTERS ADOPTED BY THE BOARD. W H Blats. Dennis Moates. Tos d Boozer. C C Mc Whirter. Js' A Burton. A P Pifer.

The Herald and News cares very little about the matter one way or the other, but it seems to us that the board should have exhausted every available means of procuring a complete and correct list of the freebold voters, and if neitner petition had the requsite number should have followed the law and let Newberry have prohibition plain and simple, for it would have been just as lawful under the act as to have a dispensary. Mr. Perry's peti tion seems not to have been considered at all. There are many people curious to know just how the boa;d reached their decision, so we publish again this week the list of freehold voters upon which the board base1 their action, and also Mr. May bin's petition, as it was before the board. On his petition are ninety three names. Of these ninety-three we find that on their list of freehold voters twenty-two of them do not appear. They are the following: SIGNERS TO MAYBIN'S PETITION.

So then Mr.May bin has only seventy one names of freehold voters aecorditg to the official list of the board. That will give him a majority of one. But on the list of freehold voters will be found the dames of L. W. C. Blalock and Jas. L. Cannon. Mr. Blalock has been in Riclinond, Va., since last Feb ruary and is now a citizen of that city. Cannon has been dead about two months or longer. He then can hardly be considered a citizen an<i freehold voter of New berry. These two names also appear on the petition of May bin. Taking them from both lists will give the number of freehohl voters 139, and the number of freehold signers to Mr. Maybin's petition sixty-ni' e. Unless a citizen of Richmond and a dead man are counted, it will be seen that, even by the imperfect list of freehold voters upon which the board acted, Mr. May bin lacks one of having a mjority. We have no criticism to make of the action of the board, nor do we quest i)n the fact of their having acted perfect I in accord with the law as they saw it, and we only call their attention to this matter,- and ask if a citizen of Ricb mond and a dead man can be con sidered freeholder voters under the provisions of the dispensary act. If it were necessary we could name several more freehold voters in the town of Newberry. But the board has acted and we presume that settles it for New berry. The people are now in possession of the facts as we obtained them from the records of the board through their clerk. To secure a complete and absolutely correct list of the freehold voters of a town even of the size of Newberry wauld require a good deal of time and the expenditure of considerable labor. The board did not decide upon a building in which to run the dispen sary. Several were examined and at the meeting on Friday of this week it will be given a habitation. The Ladies.

Commencement at Prosperity. The commencement exercises of the Prosperity High School were held on Wednesday and Thursday evenings of lat week. The Herald and News re grets its inability to be present at these interesting exercises, and also that we have no report of them. We have al ways felt a lively interest in this school and always feel a pride in its success. The past session we understand has been a very successful one under the management of Prof. E. 0. Counts assisted by Miss Mawie Crooks. The exercises were largely attended and were very creditable to teachers and pupils. We can do no more than give the programmes of both evenings which we do.

The curtain would open and close between acts, and at tile closing of the curtain the orchestra of that place would give sweet music to the audi eiice. The scholars did well, worthy of commendation. The school closed with Thursday night's exercises for the summer, to be opened the first Monday in September. A Card of Thanks. In making pr eparation for the closing exercises of school, we have had ex tended to us numerous courtesies in many ways. We are grateful for these, for however smnall the favor may have appeared to you, to as it was a need, and therefore, valuable.
