AGENTS FOR WLiDflUGLAS SHO Best in the World HE DENIES IT. Repudiates Articles Published in The State Enquirer ONE BAY LAST WEEK Purporting to Give Substance of Conver sation With York County Candidate on Train. Called Up The Rec ord to Make Instant De nial. Did Major Wylie, of the hoard of directors of the state dispensary, say. that the other members of the board are corrupt; that he is only one man against two, and cannot help himself, but was able recently to compel the others, by threats, to return goods purchased over his p; otesl? Da a long discance. telephone ccn versation Thursday morning with a Columbia Record man, whom he call ed up, Ms jor Wylie denied the allega tion that he bad msde such state ments, and authorized the newspaper man to quote him as strcngly in de nial as, his command of the language would permit. Major Wylle's state ment to The Rsocri was by way of reply to the fouowing article, whicb appeared Thursday morning in the Columbia State and credited to the Yorkvllle Enquirer: "Mr. Wylie, of the state roard of dispensary directors, was on the C. & N. W. train Wednesday morning, go lng toward Gastonia; and between Yorkvllle and Clo*?r he said In the presence of Dr. J. E. Massev and Mr. F. P. McCain, who were going to Clo ver with the county oampalgn party, that the state dispensary has always been corrupt and it is as corrupt as It has ever been. He said, that the state board is corrupt; but be is only one man against two and cannot help him belf. He cited that recently, over his protest, the other two members of the board has purchased two thousand cases of so-called case whiskey. Upon the arrival of the whiskey he, Wylie, Insisted on having it analyzed. The analysis showed 2* per cent, of alcohol and the balance was various kinds of chemicals. As a result of the analy sis, and Mr. Wylle's threatening to make a fuss, the 1'quor was sent back. Dr. Massey and Mr. McCain both re peated Mr. Wylle's statement to them in their speeohes at Clover." In commenting on the Enqurier's article the Columbia State said: "The above statement is confirmed by a special to The State from Yorkvllle, which gives the same report of Di rector Wylle's conversation with Messrs. Massey and McCain. The State endeavored Wednesday to ob tain statements concerning the matter from Mr. Wvlle and Messrs Massey and McCain. It was found that Mr. Wylie, whose home is In It ohburg, Chester county, is at Cleveland Springs, N. C. A telegram was sent to him there asking him for a titate mcnt by telegraph. No reply was re ceived, it boing pcBSlble th?.& Mr. Wylie was unable to reply Thursday night. Messrs. Massey and McCain were bcsh away irom home Wednes day in attendance upon the York county campaign meeting at some point in the county and neither of them could be reached Wednesday." Major Wylie ountradicts The State and the Er.quirer in what he says be low: "I was on the train on the day mentioned and in company with Dr. Massey aud Mr. McCain, but the gen tleman quoted by tbe Enquirer posei bly misunderstood mu ur did aot catoh ix.y exact words. "In discussing the dispensary, Dr. Massey said that be wanted to keep! it clean and with that Idoa be had voted for me in the legislature. "I told htm that I thought as Jong as the whiskey houses kept putting ch" mefcu liquor on us, it woulo ba im possible to keep cewn talk, and that in my opinion counly cispensarles v*ouid be uo bbttfir. I went on to aty furtaer, that my attention had been sailed to the quality of strue goods we j had bought, aud I got some samples and carried them to Columbia my sell; intending to fcjtv>: tbero nnaljzec; buo when I get to Columbia, I found that Ccmmitwioner Ta'um Lad already given samples tpf these no- 6a to U:e chemist to be anslyze.-; that the chem ist bad reported untavrabb upon tbbua j !>j,.itj Uiat tiit goods were of low grade in alcohol peicentage j-rd every other way, and that the dispensary force had c-eeu in>ii uctsd by the. com mtSHiouer to return them. "Mr. McCain tuen asked me how muoii we weie goir,g to rsiura. I re plied, 'Something like 2,001) gallons inches and barrels.' Tau barrel goods ware some of the old board's pur en ises.

Ou the other band, as I have just .stated, when I suspected the quality of the liquor and started to Columbia to have It analyzed I found that the commissioner bad already ascertained chat it was unfit for use and ordered it returned. "I told the gentlemen that ever since I bad been on the board I had been in favor of better whiskey, and that the board had put into effeot a resolution to buy good, pure whiskies from bond and blend and bottle then? at the dispensary,_thus making sure of their purity.

"You cannot too strongly quote me in denying the false statement I am oredited with having made regarding the other members of She board. I am at a loss to know how the Enquir er could have received such a distort ed and wholly incorrect version of my conversation with Dr. Massey and Mr. MoCain."_ Who Says It Btm't Paj ? W. H.

Terrible Scaly Humor in Patches All Over the Body?Skin Cracked and Bleeding?Itching Unbear able?Cured by Cuticura in Thirty Days at Cost of $4.75. ANOTHER WONDERFUL CURE BY CUTICURA "I was afflicted with psoriasis for thirty-five years. It was in patches all over my body. I used tlwee cakes of Soap, six boxes Cuticura Oint ment, and two bottles of Cuti cura Resolvent. I bathed with the Soap, applied the Ointment once a day, and took the Resolvent as di rected. In thirty days I was completely cured, and I think permanently, as il*was about llvo years ago. "The psoriasis first made its appear ance in red spots, generally forming a circle, leaving in the center aspot about the siec of a silver dollar of sound flesh. In a short time the affected circle would form a heavy dry"5ealeof a white silvery appearance und would gradually dt'op off. To remove the-entire scales by bathing or using oil to softrti them the flesh would be perfectly raw, and a light discharge of bloody substance would oozeout. That seal}'crust would form again in twenty-four hours. It was worse on my anus and limbs, al though it was in spots all over my body, also on my sculp. If I let the scales remain too long without remov ing by bath or otherwise, the skin would crack and bleed. I suffered intense itching, worse at nights after getting warm in bed, or blood warm by exercise, when it would be almost Unbearable.
