The subscription price of the Dispatch is $1 a year; 50 cents for six months; 25 cents for tliree months?invariably cash in advance. Circulation, 2,054. Wednesday, November 1,1905. We want to congratulate the management of the State Fair on the complete success they accomplished and the people of Columbia generally, for their generous hospitality with which they entertained their gaests and the attractions they provided for their amusement. It is the opinion of all whom we have beard express themselves on the subject, and their names are legion, that it surpassed in all respects anything of the kind they ever witnessad. In a nutshell it was simply grand and inspiring. The city was magnificently illuminated at night with thousands of sparkling jets of electric lights of many colors. Many of the business houses were artistically decorated with many beautiful designs, but that which attracted the most attention, on account of its striding ana unique conception, w?? I that of the Globe Dry Goods Co., which was a large globe revolving around myriads, as it were, of twinkling stars, as if inviting the universe into Monckton's to purchase goods. The Cfcra v*l was conducted within the bounds * of decency. Each day crowds that visited the city and the fair ground were tremendous and were on their best behavior and all had a good time but the fun was innoC3nt and gave Offense to none. Too much praise cannot be given the management of the railroads for m the splendid manner in which they handled the great crowds that patroni ized them Especial mention should x be made of the attention given to passengers over his iine by Superintendent Williams of the Southern Railway. He gave his personal supervision to the movement of his trains, provided ample accommodaS; tions for the comfort and convenience of the excursionists and met evei^ -x-donable demand made upon him. This Editor is under many obligations to him for sending, at his reqaeat, a special to this place to provide accommodations for passengers from Lexington station. If ail railroad officials did as Mr. Williams is doiog the railroads and the people would get in closer touch to the mutual advantage of both. The trip of President Roosevelt frnm WftKhincrhon fcn Naw Orleans and - 15 - _ return bas been completed without any accident worthy of mention. All along his route he was given a perfect ovation and the South, in an effort to outdo^the North in this respect, received him with open arm*. How beautiful it is for brethren to dwell together in unity. The Czar of Russia nas granted to his people civic liberty, based on real inviolability of persoD, freedom of conscience, speech, union and association. Judge Swaine, of Florida, the Federal'] udge against whom impsachmept proceedings were recently neard b> * the Senate, has been acquitted by the United States Supreme Court. Marriage of a Popular Young Lady. At the Uoion church in Irene, last Sunday night Mr. Calvin McCravy of Cjlumbia, led to the alter Miss Effie Wingard, the ceremony being performed by Rev. W. J. Snyder. The church was beautifully decorated with a profusion of flowers. Just in front of the chancel hung a large evergreen bell with a centre of roses under which the couple stood while being made one. The bride and * ^ . 1.1 -*.1- i groom were preceded op roe aisie oy Mr. Bryan Haliman witn Miss Hattie Harman and Mr. Harper Mcintosh ~ with Miss Anna Coriey. Then came littie Miss Mable Hilton and Master Percy Williams who scattered roses in front of the happy conple as they slowly came to the alter accompanied by the strains of a wedding march. The bride was beautifully gowned in white with a long bridal veil, in her hand she held a magnificienfc bouquet of flowers. The bridesmaids, like the bride, were in pure white. After the ceremony the whole party returned to the home of the bride's parents where congratnlations were in order and a sumptuous repast was served. The bride was the recipient of many valuable presents which were greatly admired by the large company assembled. Mr. and Mrs. McCravy left on the train Monday mornir^ for Columbia, where they will make their future home.

The people ot Batesburg, with their usual promptness in taking bold of enterprises having for their object the progress of their town, now propose to organize a Tri-County Fair made up of Lfxmgton, Saluda and Aiken counties.

The business men of Batesburg have already subscribed quite liberally to this enterprise and no doubt it will be a success. Consumption 9 There is no specific for consumption. Fresh air, exercise, nourishing food and Scott's Emulsion will come pretty near curing it, if there is anything to build on. Millions of people throughout the world are living and in good health on one lung. ? From time immemorial the doctors prescribed cod liver oil ior consumption. Of course the oatient could not take it in its old form, hence J it did very little good. They can take SCOTT'S EMULSION and tolerate it for a long time. There is no oil, not excepting butter, so easily digested and absorbed by the s.. system as cod liver oil in the form of Scott's Emulsion, and that is the reason it is so helpful in consumption where its use must be continuous. ][ We will send you a sample free. jf Be sure that this tk picture in the form of a label is on the wrapper of every bottle of J Emulsion you buy. ?.
