The Reasons for Refusing Injunction Against Dispensary Election in Spartanburg County. 'The State. Gaffney, November 7.-In declining a grant the injunction against the -dispensary 'election in Spartanburg, at the 'hearing 'here yesterday, Judge Kl(ughi said: 'Altis- motion is based on the -grounds, first, that no petition has ~ever been filed with the supervisor signed by one-fourth of the qualified voters of Spartanburg county; second ly, that the act authorizing the elec tiona is unconstitutional. I will dis cnss 'the second griound -first. "This act has a proviso to it wNIhi provides -for .a levy of taxes inx order ~to raise a revenue for the purpose of enforcing what is commonly known as th-e dispensary law, if the dispensary is voted out of Spar'tanburg county. The main lobject of this law is not for -raising revenue but provides for the sestablishing of or removal of dispen saries, and the provision of the act -uiic provide for or cnntemplates BUG( We have the most see them before buyin stock of Harness on h ROBE! Our winter Robes I QDuatti the raising -of revenue is a subordi nate matter. It is not 'the purpose of the act lbut is subsidiary to the main purpose -or subordinate to it. I think that view would be sufficient to war rant -che court in holding that the po sition is not well taken .as to the un constitutionality of .the act. "But furthier than that, it is well settled, so much so that it may be said to be familiar, that an act that is constitutional in part of its pro visions and unconstitutional in othei parts will not be declared to be void in toto unless the constitutional part of the act is so 'dependent upon the part which is unconstitutional, and will become meaningless unless the unconstitutional portions of the acl were sustained. In this case the act seems 'to provide means for ,the es tablishing or removal of .the dispen sary, and then -the second portion o: the act Which provides for the raising of revenue for the purpose of enforc ing the general provisions of the dis pensary law in reference to -the salc and handling of liquior. Now I don't see that one part of this act is depend ent upon the other. It seems to me a provision for the establishing or re moving dispensaries may be sustained and may stand by -itself without ref erence to.the provision for the punis'h ment of violators of -the .dispensary law, 'or without reference to tlhe pro vision of the.'act for raising revenue 4.C punish or enforce tihe observance '0 the dispensary law. So that on either ground it seems to me t'hat the ele .tion cannot~ be enjoined on account of nullity or uncons-titutionali'ty of the law. I agree that the ease cited from the supreme court of th'e United States is not directly in point. It would be direcely in point if 'these were pro ceedings restraining a levy or collec tion of taxes under this act but thal seems not to be the question.

ROI iave been received and ebaun 'P ROSPF dispensary should be voted 'out an -the tax authorities seek to levy or col lect taxes, then it might be that thi plaintiff or any other taxpayer coul make that question and it would be question properly up for discussior but it seems to me it is not the infer ence of this enquiry as to whether tha provision of law is consitutional or un constitutional, because if it be ur constitutional it doesn't vitiate th other portion of the act, which prc vides for the removal of the disper saries. "That disposes of the unconstittL tional feature of this case. The oth er is one of fact. The plaintiff allege that this election is about to be hel without warrant of law, in othe words, alleges the absence of compl' ance with the statutes upon part < the authority whi-ch ordered the elec tion, the county supervisor. Now, tha looks like alleging a negative but i reality it is not. It may allege a nez ative state 'of things but alleges nullity of the proceedings and the bul den is upon the plaintiff to establis' that, just as much so .as upon an other plaintiff in any other case wh bases his claim to the interference c interposition of the court upon the a] legations where those allegations ar denied, as they are in this case.
