|L Candy Factory Collapses.
W Greenville, Aug. 8.?Almost withf
out warning the brick store house
[ 'k occupied by a candy factory collapsed
here this afternoon. No one
was caught in the falling debris,
though it is thought remarkable that
the inmates of the place escaped.
.
The coallapse was caused dv an exca- j
J vation being made on the side of the 1
f wall by the contractors, who were
fey erecting a new building of the Bank
t v: of Commerce. The damage is estiP
mated at between $4,000 and $5,000.
It is not known where the damage will
fall. The contractors claim that the
candy factory building was improperly
constructed, while on the other hand
it is asserted by owners of the wrecked
structure that the contractors had no
^ right to carry the excavation so close
to the factory wall. The Bank of |f
Commerce occupied temporary quarters
in the same building and was
forced to move.

Ths Lexington Dispatch.
Wednesday, August 15, 1906.
An Open Letter.
To the Editor of the Dispatch:
Gentlemen taxpayers, what do you
think? Hear we are on the eve of an
election and the only talk is the liquor
business, dispensary and prohibition.
"i- .1 ^ 1 J_ 11.^ U +
Well, Croa maue wie muuu uauixcvi
about stuff in the grain and gave man
the wisdom to get it out. God said
all things were good. Now the prohibitionist
want to put what God
made and gave to man out of man's
reach, but will never do it. We cannot
do away with all that man can
sin by.
Then the dispensarites want to give
the whole control to a few men. We
all know it is nature for man to work
for his own interest and it seems that
there are few that are strictly honest.
The liquor business is one of the largest
businesses of our State and to
put it in the hands of a few men and
say to other citizens, "keep your
hands off," looks like we are coming
to monarchal government.
We have some experience of the
dispensary law. Commissioners have
been accused of fraud, which 48 bad
on us, then comes an investigating
committee costing its thousands of
dollars which is piled on the poor taxpayers.
I am no candidate, nor no
wise man, but it looks like any simpleton
can see how things are going.
I have seen the time when any man
that chose could put up a distillery
or run a bar room and there was no
more drunkenness then than now.
Men then drank pure stuff and did
not go crazy from poison in the drink.
I heard the "daddy" of the dispensary
say give him control of the stuff
and he would pay half the taxes with
it, but taxes have been on the rise
and this year, I suppose, to pay this
investigating committee, we will have
our assessments raised and our oaths
as to valuation raised?another step
, towards monarchy.
Think about it, if any man who
chose to sell it was allowed to sell
and was charged a reasonable license
say only in incorporated towns, each
dealer would strive to sell purer liquor
at as low a price as possible to
meet his competitors, then if we are
fools enough to buy and drink it is
our own fault, if a fault. As it is the
man who don't drink is taxed to run
the business same as the one who
drinks.
Some say; Oh, the dispensary is
such a help to education. Well, it
has been said, educate the negro you
spoil a good plow hand. Now, I tell
you, the white boy is not far behind
the negro in that, but take the boy
who has worked out his education
himself?he is worth three times the
boy that is educated by the public.
Now the liquor is here afid is as
good as anything else in its place.
Even Christ made it at the marriage
feast and it was pronounced good. It
is offtimes the doctor's last resort to
save life and it is as everything else,
we can sin by it if we choose and a
man should have his choice. God
gives him the right to sin if he chooses,
but does not will it. Getting drunk
is no more sin than the eating of the
forbidden fruit by Adam. Noah got
drunk, it don't say he sinned, but a
mark was put on his son who made
sport or laughed at his nakedness.
So you that'8 making a big boo hoo
about the liquor business best look
j out. G. W. Reeder.

Gives Up to Die.
B. Spiegel, 1204 N. Virginia street, j
Eyansville, Ind., writes: "For over five
years I was troubled with kidney and
bladder affections which caused me
much pain and worry. I lost flesh and
was all run down, and a year ago had
to abandon work entirely. I had three
of the best physicians who did me no
good iind I was practically given up to
die. Foley's Kidney Cure was recommended
and the first bottle gave me
great relief, and after taking the second
bottle I was entirely cured." The Kaufmann
Drug Co.
Baptist Condemn Dispensary
System.
Easley, Aug. 11.?The Piedmont
Baptist association convened at Easley
August 2 and was in session for
two days. The report on temperance
came up for discussion the second
day. The report was prepared and
read by Rev. D. W. Hiott and very
strongly condemned the liquor traffic
and the dispensary came in for a full
share.
A resolution was passed unanimousCleanses
the system
thoroughly and clears
sallow complexions of
* pimples and blotches.
/ It is guaranteed
lv by the association declaring that
after more than 12 months experience
with prohibition since the dispensari; s ,
have been voted out of this section,
"we are delighted with the beneficial
results."
This association is composed of
churches located in both Anderson
and Pickens counties and embraces
one of the most enlightened and progressive
agricultural sections of the
State. Both these counties are overwhelming
against the State dispensary
and will send solid delegations to the
legislature opposed to the institution
and in favor of local option.
Household Help On Strike.
A special from Newberry, S. C., to
the Augusta Chronicle states that
there is evidently a strike on with the
cooks, washerwomen and other colored
labor in that section. It is believed
that the recognized leaders in negro
organizations are responsible for the
"strike". The police authorities are
keenly studying the situation, as the
vagrancy laws on the local statute
books are very stringent.
How to Avoid Appendicitis.
Most victims of appendicitis are those
who are habitually constipated. Orino
Laxative Fruit Syrup cures chronic constipation
by stimulating the liver
and bowels and restores the natural
action of the bowels. Orino Laxative
Fruit Syrup does not nauseate or gripe
and is mild and pleasant to take. Refuse
substitues. The Kaufmann Drug Co.
Resolutions of Respect
Adopted by Mt. Hebron Woman's
Foreign Missionary Society on the
death of Mrs. Rebecca Shull.
Whereas, it has pleased the giver
of all good on his wisdom to enter our
society and take from us our esteemed
sister, Rebecca Shull, who departed
this life June 8, 1906. Resolved,
1st. That in the death of our belov!
ed sister our society has lost a true
j and loyal member?one whose every
day life was a living example of
the principles of our society.
2nd. That the removal of such a
life from our midst leaves a vacancy
and a shadow that is deeply realized
by the members of this society.
3rd. That we tender to the bereaved
children, who so sadly mourn the
loss of a dear mother, our most heartfelt
sympathy,
4th. That a copy of these resolutions
be sent to the bereaved family, one
spread on the minutes of our society
and one sent to the local paper for
publication.
Weep not for me, loved ones,
Thy suffering days are past,
I'm going to join the angels
In the beautiful land of rest.
Its there through the gates ajar,
I'll wait and watch for you;

Cued Hay Fever and Summer
Cold.
A. J. Nusbaum, Batesville, Indiania,
writes: "Last year I sufferred for three
months with a summer cold so distressing
that it interfered with my business.
I had many of the symptoms of hay
fever, and a doctor's prescription did
not reach my case, and I took several
medicines which seemed to only aggravate
my case. Fortunately I insisted
upon having Foley's Honey and Tar and
it quickly cured me. My wife has since
used Foley's Honey and Tar with the
same success." The Kaufman Drug Co.
2,000 Ken Arrested.
3t. Petersburg, Russia, August 9.?
News from the provinces today is re
assuring. The revolutionary agitation
has slackened owing to wholesale arrests.
It is estimated that 2,000 Social
Democrats have been placed under
arrest recently. In the capital everything
is quiet. At Moscow the revolutionary
movement seems to be
checked temporarily.
In Ekaterinoslaw and Poltava dis- j
tricts, peasants are suffering greatly
from famine. Crops have been excel- j
lent, but the land owners cannot sell
corn even at low prices and the peasants
are unable to pay anything for
it. Enormous quantities of corn are
simply rotting in the fields, while
women and children throughout the
districts are starving.
Submit Petition for Impeachment.
Atlanta, Ga., Aug. 9.?A petition
for the impeachment of Judge John
H. Martin of the Oconee circuit of the
sunerior court of Georrria was ore
JL" ' - J.
sented before the house of representatives
today and a committee was
named to consider and report upon
the petition. The petition alleges
that Judge Martin has abused his
office in the restraining of certain
orders in a case involving the Commercial
hotel at Fitzgerald, Ga., and
that by reason of such delay the owners
of the property suffered a loss of
$3,000.
