The Columbia State a known hater of the dispensary law is advocating Colonel Hoyt's can didacv for Governor, because it thinks, and it may have the Col c-1e1's word for it, that Colonel He'yt is willing to have a license system if he cannot get prohibi tion. In other words the dispen sary system must go, even if the Prohibitionists must make an alliance with the old time bar keepers to break it down. Now we know sorhe Prohibitionists who do not take stock in such doctrine, and when they hear an appeal to them to help break up the dispensary, even if they must, to accomplIsh such a re sult, return to the license sys tem they say "get thee behind me Satan." The class of Prohi bitionists we refer to are, those who want prohibition. pure and simple-they do not want the State to establish depots of hy pocrisy by converting the pres ent dispensaries into places where the law will say, liquor shall be sold, providing the man wanting the stuff will say he wants it for medicinal, mechani cal and sacramental uses, as is laid down in the platform written by Colonel Hoyt, and adopted by the Prohibition faction, and by which faction he was "suggest ed" in a public convention. The "State," although a bitter and an unrelenting foe of Tillman and the faction he was the recog nized head, had the reputation of being fair-it would fight openly, but our recent experience with that journal convinces us that it will resort to any means to accomplish the destruction of the dispensary. The "State" wants a return of the barroom system, it never did favor prohi bition until now, and only since the Prohibitionists have sug gested a candidate for governor, according to the "State" who will, if he cannot get prohibition, give "high license." Has the "State" any ground for this belief? The South Carolina Baptist, of which Rev. J. W. Perry, who is well known to us, is an editor, says: "Already at tacks are being made on Col'or. Hoyt. It is said that lie is not a Prohibitionists at heart and that his past record proves this. We know that he was a high license man for a number of years. Some of the stiffest arguments we have ever had in the public press, were with him along this line." Now there you are, a Baptist paper, and Colonel Hoyt a prom inent Baptist, edited by men known to our readers, say that the "Prohibitionists" have put forward as their standard bearer a man whom these Baptist edi tors know "was a high license" man. Mind, the attempt is be ing made to work the church members into the belief that a religious principle is involved and to carry forward a '-religious principle" a man is put forward to carry the banner, whose church brethren say '"he was a high license man." Do our red ers remember Rev. J. W. Perry, he was the much esteemed pas tor of the Manning Baptist church a number of years ago, and a gentleman who scorned hypocrisy. The paper who is highly honored by having him as one of its editors. says: Col. Hoyt, the candidate for gover nor on the Prohibition platform is being attack because "it is said that he is not a Prohibition ist at heart and that his past re cord proves this:" And then it does not stop there, but makes this- declaration. "-We know that he was a high license man for a number of yea--s." If the editors of the South Carolina Baptist can be relied upon as being truthful, what becomes of that beautiful " principle" which is so much involved, that church members are being urged to come to its rescue. The Columbia State doesn't seen to fancy the candor of the "-South Carolina Baptist," be cause it knows that such a dec laration about Colonel Hoyt who from that source. might cause a great many sincere "Prohibi tionists- to wonder if Colonel Hoyt is elected,willthere be pro hibition or license. The State of the 16th, inst., cries out in a hush-you'll-spoil-things alarm, as follows: "The South Carolina Baptist, published at Greenwood, may be a prohibition paper and a well-wisher of Colonel Hoyt, and as a denominational paper it may be constrained to make nom inal opposition to the dispensary: but our reading of an editorial in its issue of last Wednesday in elines us to believe that while ewhracing the Colonel it is also seeking to smite him under the fifth rib." No, Columbia State., the views expressed in the South Carolina Baptist are only confirmatory of what you are attempting to make your anti-dispensary read ers believe in order to pull votes for Colonel Hoyt. "Our reading of an editorial" in the State, con inces us, that paper wouldhave its anti-dispensary readers to be lieve the thing is already tixed, should Colonel Hoyt be elected, lie will join forces to bring about license to destroy the dispensary if he cannot have prohibition. But we doubt if that Gonzales wink will work this time, be c-ause, we have a faint recollec tion of having heard of a fairy tale like that once before, and when Gonzales failed to deliver the goods he had to say some thing. so he wrote columns of abuse on the late Governor El lerbe. We suppose he will wink the other eve this time. There i. more ;nrr ' this section of the cvuntry than all other diseases put together. and until the last few years was supposed to be incurable. For a great many years doctors pro nounced it a local disease. and prescribed local remedies. and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment. pronounced it incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be a constitutional dis ease. and therefore requires constitutional treat ment. Halls Catarrh Cure. manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.. Toledo.

Next Wednesday will be the State campaign meeting in Man ning, and we urge as many as can to come and hear the candi dates for State offices talk. There is another matter we wish to urge, that the speakers be given a r-espectful hearing, and should any of them attempt to throw mud or go outside of the issues,that he be promptly given to understand such is not need ed. The people want to hear the issues discussed, not person lities, nor do they care to wit ness a mud-slinging match. We hope ther-e w~ill be a good crowd. A Life and Death Fight Mr. wV. A. Hines of Manchester. Ia.. writing of is almost miraculous escape from death. says: Exposure after measles induced serious lung rouble, which ended in consumption. I had requent hemorrhages and coughed night and ay. All my doctors said I must die. Then I egan to use Dr. King's New Discovery for Con sumption. which completely cured me. I would not be without it even if it cost $5 a bottle. undreds have used it on my recommendation and all say it never fails to cure throat, chest and lung troubles." Regular size 50e. and $1.

We are cquainted with all of them. overnor McSweeney is our per onal friend, Colonel Hoyt, the rohibitionist we esteem as a nan, even if we do differ on the 'conscience" question. Mr. Gary we have known favorably for a umber of years. and we admire is manliness, and Mr. Patter on the youngest of the lot, we ave had a pleasant acquaintance ~vith for sometime-. It will thus be een that we should be careful aot to do either of the gentlemen t in justice, and when they speak ere we will then be qualified to nake such comments as condi ions warrant. Mr. wV. s. whedon, casnmer of the First Na ional Bank of Winterset. Iowa. in a recent let r gives some experience with a carpenter in is employ that will be of value to other me -hanics. He savs:.-I had a carpenter working 'or me who was'obliged to stop work for several ays on account of being troubled with diar hoa. I mentioned to him that I had been iilarv troubled and that Chamberlain's Colic. holera' and Diarrhoea Remedy had cured me. le bought a bottle of it from the drnggist here uud informed me that one dose cured him. and w is again at his work."

Yes, August Flower still has the lar gest sale of any medicine .n the civil ized world. Your mothers and grand mothers never thought of using any thing else for Indigestion or Bilious ness. Doctors were scarce and they seldom heard of Appendicitis. Nervous Prostration or Heart failure. etc. They used August Flower to clean out the system and stop fermentation of undi gested food, regulate the action of the liver, stimulate the nervous and organic action of the system. and that is all they took when feeling dull and had with headaches and other aches.
