Severe pains would strike me in the small part of my back and at times I was unable to get about for days.

Since the last meeting of your honorable bodies, four counties of the State have voted out county dispensaries, Chesterfield, Chester, Claren don and Laurens, leaving twenty-one counties in which there are county dispensaries and twenty-one counties in which we have county prohibition. In my last annual message, I recommended that the Carey-Cothran act be amended by providing "that not more . than one county dispensary be allowed in any county where liquor is allowed to be sold, exceptin those counties where there are cities with a population exceeding twenty-five thousand." This suggestion was not en acted into law, and I now renew the recommendation and recommend that the said act be furthei amended by 11 that, is. making un ujc cuuuon..o ui^ , v??- , not allowing lipuor to be sold in any of the counties of the state, with the right of any of the counties now having dispensaries to vote upon the question as to whether liquors shall be sold in said counties according to the rules and regulations as provided in the Carey-Cothran act, said election to be ordered upon a petition being filed with the county supervisor of such county, signed by at least one-third of the qualified electors of such county. This is in the furtherance of temperance and for the best,interest of our people. I also recommend that the act be further amended by not allowing any county in which liquor is allowed to be sold to have a bottling plant or mixing or blending plant, and that all liquors of every kind shall be purchased in bottles or in jugs, and sold in the original packages.

WJ V**V United States circuit court from paying out any of the funds in their hands. Receivers were appointed by the United States court to take charge of the fund and an order was made providing that the sam i be administered in that court. From this decree an appeal was taken to the United States circuit court to take charge of the fund and an order was made providing that the same be administered in that court. From this decree an appeal was taken to the United States circuit court of appeals, which court affirmed the order of the circuit court, and the case was then to the United States supreme court, which court granted the writ of certiorari asked for. The whole cause is now before the United States supreme court and is to be 3 ii rvo..J J - r T7 ^ I arguen on inn zoru uay 01 reuruary 01 this year. We fully expect that a decision will be made in favor of the state, and that ihe commission appointed will be allowed to wind up the iffairs of the state dispensary in the pear future and in accordance with .he act under which they were appointed. A full detailed report will hen be made by said commission of lII its actings and doings as such comnission. For a history of the litigation in the Tinted Stiffs couit I respectfully reer von to the report of the attorney general. I recommend tha~ p: o/ision be made or the per diem ot' the members of he commission for the year 1909.
