C. The Lexington Dispatch. Wednesday, May 2, 1906. Whiskey, or No Whiskey. To the Editor of the Dispatch: Please allow us to say that your suggestion to place a box at each precinct at the approaching primary election for the reception of ballots marked "dispensary" or "do dispensary," was not in our minds when we prepared the address upon which < nnmcnforl in rr.nr taaf. iflSHA. J WU V# U4?UVU%VVI *M J WU* *wv? The position which we take and will maintain is that no election on the diepeneary will stand a legal test but that which is held in accordance with the provisions of the Brice law. To place a bos in the primary for a vote upon the question of "whiskey" cr "no whiskey" in order to test the strength of the whiskey men in the Democratic party in Lexington county might be a proper thing to do. But to undertake to put the dispensary out or to keep it in Lexington county, by a vote in the primary election, seems to us a repudiation of the action of the legislature io adopting the Brice bill in the first instance and its wisdom in refusing to repeal it io the second. The dispensary was established by statute law and can be removed only by the provisions of statute law. Whiskey, or no whiskey, is an open question and the Democratic party in its eoverignty can vote upon it in the primary if it chooses to do so. Joab Edward, Theo. A Qaattlebaum, Committee. 2Tot If as Rich as Rockefeller. If you had all the wealth of Rockefeller, the Standard Oil magnate, yon could not buy a better medicine for bowel complaints than Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. The most eminent physician can not prescribe a better preparation for colic and diarrhoea, both for children and adults. The uniform success of this remedy has shown it to be superior to all others. It never fails, and when reduced with water and sweetened, is pleasant to take. Every family should be supplied with it. Sold by The Kauf maim Drug Co. The Pace that Sills. We have the daily testimony cf those who have accumulated wealth to the effect that money fails utterly to satisfy. Men who are worthy of belief Bay that beyond a certain point, wealth is a burden, BDd yet humanity goes on burning out the higher instincts, blunting the finer sensibilities, destroying capacities for happiness in the mad scramble for the dollar. The old prayer, "Give me neither riches nor wealth," is not prayed now. We read cf the superior virtues of the simple life, give mental assent, but strive all the harder to get into the complex. The human mind cannot comprehend infinity, nor is it easy to take in anything like an adequate conception of what a million dollars really is. So it is that while we know that this Ja ??iicV?jnrr r>n of. n hrAfi trn Apt I 10 1 UCUIU^ WW UW V?

Every seven minutes there is a funeral. Every thirteen minutes a pair get married. % Every forty-two minutes a new business firm start3 up. Every forty-eight minutes a building catches fire. Every forty-eight miuutes a ship leaves the harbor. Every fifty-ono minutes a new building is erected. Every fifty-two seconds a passenger train arrives from seine point outside the city limits. Every one and three quarter hours some od6 is killed by accident. Every seven hours some one fails in business. Every eight hours an attempt to kill some one is made.

Tbe work of securing homes for the visitors here reunion week is progressing oatisfactcry and Mr. N 0. Pyles, who has charge of this department, reports very good progress. It is necessary to secure from practically every householder in the city the promise of accommodations and tbe citizens of Columbia c*n greatly aid the work by notifying the Chamber of Commerce at once the number that can be taken care of. A few days ago Secretary Clark sent out to all adjutants of the camps a circular letter requesting the complete rolls of the veterans who will probably come to Columbia. This letter is already bringing results and as fast as r< plies are received the following letter is sent out: Dear Sir: Oace again we are to have the pleasure and honor ol: grasping the hands of South Carolina's liviDg heroes and every citizen cf Columbia is looking forward witb unalloyed pleasure to the comiDg reunion. The next annual reunion of the South Carolina division. United Confederate Veterans, will be held in Columbia, S C, on May 16 h, 17th and i r>. i -l nA/i j t L_ i_ . it.: IOCD, JLUUO, BQU We liupe IU UJUHtJ tuift a memorable occasion.

Your prompt reply will greatly aid us in this work and in replying please give your postcffice address. Yours very truly, E. B. Clark, Secretary. It Is Dangerous to Neglect a Cold. How often do we hear it remarked: - 'T - i --U ' ' 1 ~ -T 1^4.^,. "ITS OHiy a COld, ami a, ie? uajs i&ici learn that the man is on his back with pneumonia. This is of such common occurrence that a cold, however slight, should not be disregarded. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy counteracts any tendency of a cold to result in pneumonia, and has gained its great popularity and extensive sale by its prompt cures of this most common ailment. It always cures and is pleasant to take. For sale by The Kaufmann Drug Co. Russians Are Coming. Washington, April 25?E J.Watson, commissioner of immigration, is here today on his way to New York where bo will meet several prominent Russians who will locate in the Piedmont section and engage in dairying Tbese men are to buy land, and geierally make an investigation for otherB who will come later.
