WE IIAVK A DISPJEXSKK.
ISut 'i'lu-re is <ti)l Some Doubt About Our !
Having a Dispensary.
The Hoard of Control held its iir<t
important business meeting1 here Sat
urday, and the business transacted
was of a rature very interesting to
both friends and enenfes of the disriniiMrv
I'X. ..
After carefully considering the applications
of the live candidates for
tho position of dispenser, and having
of course taken into consideration the
qualifications, etc., of the applicants,
the Hoard decided to appoint Mr.
M. II. Mobley. Mr. \\\ M. Harden
was made clerk. The salaries of these
officers were fixed at SDOO and sOOO,
respective! v.
Having concluded this portion of
their worl . tlie Board proceeded to
choose a i': '.tion for the "bar". Several
rucaui store-rooms were visited
anil examined. The one located just
north of A. Williford & Co.'s siere
was selected. >Ve presume that work
will at once be commenced and the
place fitted up to receive the stock of
Palmetto "Ihijj juice'7 which will be ,
ordered at once.
The action of the Hoard was nothing
of a surprise; it was fully anticipated
by everybody. Xow, the sequel is
anxiously awaited. J. K. McDonald,
?sq., who is conducting the legal light
against the opening of a dispensary, ,
was asked Monday what course lie ,
intended to pursue. He said that he (
was at present unable to slate just ,
exactly what the plan of campaign
would be, "but," he added, 4,we .vill
coine to a definite conclusion in a day |
or two. probably tomorrow. (Tucs- I
day)." !
AVe have mentioned so often the f
ground upon which the anti-dispensary |
people are going to make their light '
that it is almost uiincres?ary to repeat j
it here.
Their principal argument though <
will most probably be in favor of the :
right ef a signer ?f a petition to with- '
draw his name before action i< taken j
on the petitions. I,
There is scarcely any doubt that the I
dispensary will be opened and opera- 1
tions commenced as it will not be .
possible for the opposition, even if \
they gain their point, to courlude all 1
the legal formalities in time to preve.it tke
"opening of business."
People of a speculative or inquisitive ,
turn of mind are busying themselves
in trying' to spot Tillman's spies. It's '
- ? i t . 1 I -j (
a sort or game or mm: mm scl-k mm
tlic secret service men can't long re- \
main under cover; in fact froii^-all we i
can hear their names mc Known m\v. 1
ThereTre at lecst some very strong 1
suspicions afloat.
HEIIE IS ANOTHER TEST CASK.
Solicitor Hongh Notified of the Violation
of the Dispensary Act.
In our last issue we made mention
of the fact that a Richmond linn had 1
shipped to a gentleman in Winnsboro
a case of <;01d Bourbon whiskey, and 1
that 110 action in regard to this appar- 1
ent violation of the Evan's law had 1
been taken by Tillman's spies or any ^
other officer of the law. Since the
publication of that article, however, (
the matter has assumed a different
aspect, and ihc Richmond and Dan- 1
villc Railroad will have another added '
to the li<t of cases by which the va- ;
lidity of the law, as far as it applies to
the road as a common carrier, will be 1
tested. 1
Section 21 of the Evans act imposes 1
upon the Sheriff of each County the !
duty of reporting to the Solicitor of
the circuit the violation o: any provision
of the act that come? under his ;
notice.
Acting under this authority, Sheriff i
Ellison formally notified Solicitor
Hough on Thursday, of the shipment (
and the receipt of the whiskey, fur- i
nishing at the same time the names of
a number of witnesses. That is the
writ- flirt ctnm?? nf urMMit. I
There is 110 doubt that Solicitor Ilough
will at once take steps to have the ia:lroad
brought into Court to answer for
the alleged open disregard of the law.
Here is the section which authorized
Sheriff Ellison to proceed as he did:
Sec. 24. It shall be the duty of the
Sheriffs, Deputy Sheriffs and Constables
having notice of the violation of .
any of the provisions of tins Act to
notify the Circuit Solicitor of the fact
of such violation, and to furnish him
the names of any witness within their
knowledge by whom such violation
can be proven. If any such officer
shall wilfnlh* fail to comnlv with the
provision? of this Section, lie shall,
upon conviction, be lined in a sum not
le?s than one hundred dollars w>r more
than live hundred dollars, and such
conviction shall be a forfeiture of the
office held by such person; and the
Court before whom such conviction is
had shall, in addition to the imposition
of the fine aforesaid, order and adjudge
the forfeiture of his said ofiios.

The reader of this paper will be
plea>cd to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is Catarrh. J Fall's Catarrh Cure
is the only positive (lire known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being a
constitutional disease, requires a constitutional
treatment. Hall's ( atarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly
on the blood and mucous surfaces
of the system, thereby destroying
the foundation of the disease, and
giving the patient strength by building
up the constitution and assisting
nature in doing its work. The proprietors
have so much faith in its curative
powers, that they offer One Hundred
Dollars fur any case that it fails
: to cure. Send for list of testimonials.

Items ef Interest From Our Neighbor.
Uidceavay, S. C , July 13.?Since
nil* last, nothing special has occurred.
Some time since, there was great comVaint
among the farmers,?too much
ain for them?grass unmanageable,
iow, complaining for the want of it.
[Iavo never seen better gardens than
tve have had, but the last four or five
lays of hot, dry weather, is telling
wonderfully on thern, and crops on
Lhe red lands suffering terribly. This
lias been a hard year to work a crop
xnd farmers, t? have their crops
worked our, have had to pay a great
ileal more than last year. The cotton
:rop has improved wonderfully the
past week, but there will not be as
much corn made in this section as last
year. The forces of Gen Green hare
been conquered and with favorable
seasons a very good cotton crop may
be made. Oats and wheat crop not
?00?l.
Mrs. Jno. A. Dcsportes, who lias
been absent for some time, visiting her
daughter, Mrs. Ward, returned Monday.
Mr. Earnest Kosborough left Mod-t
day for Clemson College. We understand
others contemplate going later.
Mr. I. (J. Thomas, one of eur leading
merchants, left Monday for a short
sojourn in the Mountains, we understand
he contemplates visiting the
Worlds Fair.
\V*n hear a soda fountain lias been
put up and soft drinks may be had at
Cooper Bro.'s.
The children here are very much excited
today, as there is to be a tackey
parly at the residence of Dr. Under
this evening, for their special benelit
and as it is to be a tar/cry party, each !
one is anxious to make the most lackey j
appearance, in order to secure the j
prize. We have no doubt when the
crowd assembles, there wiil be some |
ridiculous outfits, and will present!
rather a ludicrous appearance. Anv-j
th ug to aniu e the youngsters.
We had hoped to have the pleasure !
of seeing a game of ball between the j
Winnsboro and liidgewav teams, but j
* * - .11
we hear Uie game nas oecn postponcu. i
It is the custom of the merchants here i
to allow their clerks a week's furlough j
during the summer season, and as J
most of the clerks are members of the |
team, and will be absent for some
time to come, it is doubtful whether
the game will be played at all. Kidgewav
has some line players. Several
here expcct to leave next week for the
springs. The majority, we understand,
will go to Cleveland Springs.
AV'ft have no doubt thev will have a
pleasant time, but if we were of the
number, we wauld much prefer the
sulubrieus climate of the sky land.
We think Buncombe possesses the
finest climate in the country,especially
during the summer season. While the
water across the French Broad, four
miles from Ashville is not so strong1
as the water at Cleveland, the fine
climate laakes up for the water, gives
Buncombe the advantage.
"We were much pleased to see that
one of our young ladies bore off the
prize for the "Winthrop scholarship.
We have no doubt she will do credit
to herself and County. One of whom

Whereas, the National Democracy
in its last platform, pledged itself to
the free coinage of both gold and silver
without any discrimination in
favor of gold, and also to the repeal
of the Sherman Act; and whereas,
President Cleveland has called Congress
together on the 7th of August
for the avowed purpose of repealing
the Sherman Act unconditionally:
therefore,
llcxolced, 1. That the County Alliance
of Fairlield do protest against the repeal
of the Sherman Act, unless accompanied
with the free and unlimited
coinage of silver at the ratio of l(i to 1.
JiCsolrml, 2. That our representatives
in Congress be and are hereby
earnestly urged to labor unremittingly
for the free coinage of silver, and to
persistently oppose the rep.al of the
Sherman Act. unless free coinage be
at the same time granted.

We grant the right of each member to
his own opinion, but no member lias
ground for complaint if in the exercise
of th" same right the A!l'n?>ce prefers
to put in office only those who?e
convictions impel them to a consistent
defence of its demands.
Also the following resolution:

masses in accordance with the pledges
expressed in the present Democratic
platform should not be afforded by
the large Democratic majority in the
coming session of Congress, it shall

that the Democratic party lias been
false to the confidence placed in the
promises made in the last campaign,
and that it becomes our duty to take
such political action in the next national
election as will aid in placing
in power individuals having the sincere
will and determination to aftbrd
relief from the present distress by appropriate
legislation.
Also the following resolution:
Whereas, The present system controlling
the liquor traffic in this State,
known as the Dispensary, promises to
be of "ood effect among our citizens
by reducing the evils of intemperance,
this body is of the opinion that the
violent assaults made upon the law to
J - _ _ i. ZL-. i. ^ .1 r,? U trw.*- ; i- 4- ^
ueieiu Jib in ten t iiuu. suujuti jl iu ntrision
as a failure arc not to be attributed
to any motive of benefit to
the masses but simply arise from a
hope to injure the present State government
in the minds of the people
who have placed the reform movement
in power;
liesolccd, That we believe that the
Dispensary law should have a fair
trial, ana oe i<cpc in operation 101- at
least two years,, t? decide thoroughly
upon its merits, and we request Gorernor
Tillman to take such steps in the
way of calling an extra legislative
session or recommending, if necessary,
a constitutional convention, as will
prevent the courts from rendering the
law a nullity during that period."
Also the following resolutions:
llasolccil, 1. Xo commercial fertilizer
shall be s?ld in this State containing
less than 8 per cent of ammonia and
1 per cent potash. Acid phosphate to
contain not less than 10 per cent phosphoric
acid one per cent potash, or 12
per cent phosphoric acid without
potash.
2. Guaranteed analysis of each brand
to be sold shall be given to and published
bv the Board of Fertilizer Con
trol of Clemson College by the first
day of November each year.
Such *-is shall be accompunicd
by a s.irorn statement what
material compose the phosphoric acid,
ammonia and po'a.-h. Such statement
shall a'so be printed on each package
along with the analysis.
4. In holding dealers or manufacturers
responsible for a deficiency i:i
any ingredient no average should be
allowed 4>ut each ingredient should
stand for itself. A penalty should be
affixed for a deficiency of ;> per coat
below i he guarantee.
We would suggest further that oui
Legislators make some provision b\
which our soil can be analyzed anil
