The Dispensay Investigation. Mr. J. M. Cantey a brother-in-law of Mr. L. W. Bovkin. a former mem ber of the board, whose name was brought into the investigation a few days ago in the evidence of Mr. L. W. Parker. Thursday Mr. Cantey admitted in a very frank manner that he had represented Flisman & Co., of Cincinnati, the makers of the Congress Hall liquor. Mr. Cantey testified that his duties were merely to see that advertising matter was kept fresh on bill boards, and for this he received a salary of $300 a month. Mr. Cohen's testimony was produced to show that the dispensary, while buying Anheuser Busch beer from J. S. Farnum, required Cohen to order it from Columbia, although it cost him $2.12 per case more and did not save the state anything. He is not now required to order from the state dispensary direct, but from the agency at Savannah and he saves the additional cost. Ex-Constable M. N. Bahr of Charton, testified in substance to seeing big rolls of big ?bills, aggregating probably $2,000, tossed on a table at the Columbia hotel on one occasion, by a whiskey drummer for members of the board of control present, but says he did not stay long enough to see who got the money. He said L. J. Williams, DudleyHaselden, Chris Robinson and probably M. R. Cooper, of the purchasing board then in office, being present. He also testified to being in a bar in Augusta when a whiskey drummer threw down a big roll, with $500 to $700 in it, in front of chairman H. H. Evans, Chris Robinson and L.^J. Williams, saying there was no use to go^home, to stay and enjoy the carnival going on in Augusta at the^time, that there was plenty of money to give them all a good time. But he could not give the name of the drummer, and did not remember who picked up the roll. F. H. Weston established by a question to witness that all these matters occurred before the present board took charge. He said these things occurred when Messrs. Miles, ri 3 TIT-11 * i-'L ~ v^uoper aiiu w rniiims were un tae board. The Augusta affair occurred at another time. Chairman Hay read a telegram from Kohn, Belt &TCo., of Baltimore, saying they had never done any business with the dispensary. This is the firm which Mr. Bristo of Greenville, in his testimony said he thought Hamburger the drummer, represented. If he did it is evident he did not tell the truth when he said<his firm had to pay sev- j eral thousand dallars in order to get a big order. As to who this Hamberger is, what firm he represents, if any, remains a matter as yet unsolved. In addition to the telegram the affidavit of Mr. M. H. Mobley, clerk of the board, that the-books of the dispensary showed no dealings either with Kohn, Belt &<Co., or with Hamberger was read. An affidavit by Mr. Brevard Miller J TT. 11 1 /^i was reaa. xie is wen Known in uolumbia, having been an alderman and connected with cotton mills and the glass factory. He is now living in Birmingham, Ala. He declared that the controlling interests of the Carolina Glass company decided to give H. H. Evans and L. J. Williams a block of this stock in return for which the Carolina" Glass company was to be given'all, or^a part, of the state dispensary glass business. I was not at all in accord with the policy of the incorporators, and that I could not prevent this gift of stock, or such actions as would naturally follow. I withdrew from the company and my interests were taken over by other parties. T n !. i ur n -uessrs. o. oeioies, >v. u. Childs and B. F. Taylor presented to the committee a sworn statement speceially denying each and every one of these allegations. The denial was unqualified. It was further ass?rtpd that Mr. Miller never severed his connection with the company because of these alleged transactions, but because his services were unsatisfactory to the management. Mr. Douthit, also, testified. He said Nathan Meyer of Raskam, Gerstley & Co., had complained that he was not getting orders. That later Meyer had seen Mr. Dukes, a member of the board, who told Meyer to call on him at his room, having previously asked him what member represented his firm. Meyer said he didn't know that was necessary. Meyer went to see Mr. Dukes and liter told Mr. Douthit everything was all right. That was all he said and Mr. Douthit Cleanses the system thoroughly and clears sallow complexions of pimples and blotches. It is guaranteed 1 said he noticed afterwards that th? firm was given orders. T-i- j u ? r XL was csLauiisiicu. ueiure Lxie UUILLmittee that labels almost identical I with those bought by the dispensary last year at a price which has been much talked about had been bought by a whiskey concern at a lower figure. That some half pints are short over two ounces, or nearly 25 per cent. That the dispensary billed out certain grades of liquor at a cheaper price than other brands of similar class, losing the profit to the State, , but pushing the sale of the liquor thus favored. Deadly Serpent Sites are as common in India as are stomach and liver disorders with ns. For the latter however there is a sure remedy: Electric Bitters; the great restorative medicine, of which S. A. Brown, of Bennettsville, S. C., says: "They restored my wife to perfect health, after years of sufferi ing with dyspepsia and a chronically torpid liver." Electric Bitters cure chills and fever, malaria, biliousness, lame back, kidney troubles and bladder disorders. Sold on guarantee by Kaufman Drug Co., druggist. Price 50c. UTiTCIiEi SAM TO TAY. Five Million Dollars Collected by the Philippine Tariff. Washington, June 11.?The mandate of the supreme court of the United States in the Philippine tariff case has been issued and the government will now have to refund the duties to the amountof nearly $5,000,000. The case arose from the fact that the military government in the Philippines collected duties on goods imported into the island from July 12, 1898, to March 8, 1902. It was the intention of congress, although not properly carried into the language of the law, to ratify the acts of the military government. It was hoped that the mandate of the court would not be issued until the customary thirty days after rendering of a decision and that the bill might in the meantime be passed. Pressure was, however, brought to bear upon the chief justice by counsel for claimants and the mandate was issued last Saturday. The Spooner bill has, consequently, been abandoned and the government must prepare to foot the bills. A Thousand Dollar's Worth of Good. "Ihave been afflicted with kidney and bladder trouble for years, passing gravel or stones with excruciating pain," says A. H. Thurnes, a well known coal operator of Buffalo, O. "I got no relief from medicine until I began taking Foley's Kidney Cure, then the result was surprising. A few doses started the brickdust-like substance and now I have no pain across my kidneys and I feel like a Ta. 1. J} ~ new mail. jli nas uuue me wului of good."

If the dispensary must be made an issue this year, we might as well have it sharp and clear cut and get it over with. While we deprecate the idea of making whiskey the paramount issue, still we believe the matter ought to be settled finally. Dispensary and anti-dispeneary candidates for the legislature should be in the field in every county, and we want to see candidates representing both ideas run in this county. Our people should not be restricted in their choice of representatives. We ought to have the privilege of voting for dispensary7 men. Let's settle the matter while we are about it.?Bamberg Herald. Unknown Friends. There are many people who have used Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy with splendid results, but who are unknown oeeause they have hesitated about giving a testimonial of their experience for publication. These people, however, are none the less friends of this remedy. They have done much toward making it a household word by their personal recommendations to friends and neighbors It is a good medicine to have in the home and is widely known for its cures of diarrhoea and all forms of bowel trouble.

Edwards a prosperous farmer of Saluda, has panned out as a dark horse in the gubernatorial race and perhaps on the prohibition platform. He has filed his pledge and paid the assessment as a candidate for governor. He is a kinsman of Rev. Joab Edwards of this county, who has also been spoken of as a probable prohibition candidate for the h^use of representatives from Lexington county in the coming primary. INTERESTING LETTER WRITTEN BYA NOTABLE WOMAN Mrs. Sarah Kellogg1 of Denver, Color Bearer of the Woman's Relief Corps, Sends Thanks to Mrs. Plnkham. rm,? ^XUC I - -1 11 I II | was troubled ^with a ai t*- Zi/ii tumor, which kept JAps. Ml ran ne//ogg growing,causing me intense agony ana gTeat mental depression. I was unable to at> tend to my house work, and life became a burden to me. I was confined for days to my bed, lcet my appetite, my courage and all hope. " I could not bear to think of an operation, and in my distress I tried every remedy which I thought would be of any use to me, and reading of the value of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound to sick women decided to give it a trial I felt so discouraged that I had little hope of recovery, and when I began to feel better, after the second week, thought it only meant temporary relief; but to my great surprise I found that I kept gaining, while the tumor lessened in size. " The Compound continued to build up my general health and the tumor seemed to be absorbed, until, in seven months, the tumor was entirely gone and I a well woman. I am so thankful for my recovery that I ask you to publish my letter in newspapers, so other women may know of the wonderful curative powers of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound." "When women are troubled with irregular or painful periods, weakness, displacement or ulceration of the female organs, that bearing-down feeling, inflammation, backache, flatulence, general debility, indigestion or nervous prostration, they should remember there is one tried and true remedy. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound at once removes such troubles. No other medicine in the world has received such widespread and unqualified endorsement. No other medicine has such a record of cures of female ills. Mrs. Pinkham invites all sick women to write her for advice. She is daughterin-law of Lydia E. Pinkham and for twenty-five years under her direction and since her decease has been advising sick women free of charge. She has guided thousands to health. Address, Lynn, Mass. Remember that it is Lydia E. Pink* ham's Vegetable Compound that is cur. ingwomen, and don't allow any druggist to sell you anything eke in its place.

Sow to Break Up a Cold. Tl l i . 1 n may D a surprise to many to learn tliat a severe cold can be completely broken up in one or two days' time. The first symptoms of a cold are a dry, loud cough, a profuse watery discharge from the nose, and a thin, white coating on the tongue. When Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is taken every hour on the first appearance of these symptoms, it counteracts the effect of the cold and restores the system to a healthy condition within a day or two.
