Governor McSweeney is re quiring weekly reports to 1e made to him of the seizures by constables and if the report as published in last Monday's News and Courier is a fair sample, the constables are pulling the blind tigers right and left, and it ought to put a quietus on those who are charging the governor with winking at the non-enforcement of the dispensary law.

In the coming general election there will be two amendments to the constitution to be voted for, neither of which affect the people in this county, and the amendments are necessary to permit progressive towns to in crease their taxation for munici pal improvements. Those de siring to help the cities will vote 'Yes" and those who wish to keep the cities from improving will vote "No." As far as we are concerned, if the people of a city are willing to vote upon themselves highe.r taxes for in ternal improvments we are per feetly willing that they should do so. Columbia is anxious to get improved water works, and she needs them; the only way this improvement can be obtained is through an amendment to the constitution. We notice some kicking on the part of outsiders, unbia is willing to pay the tax and the people from all over the State go there and are forced to drink that miserable water. Let us all vote "Yes" and when we go to Columbia we can at least get something fit to drink without hunting up the "State" to point out a blind tiger. When cotton was selling at l01 cents we advised out readers to sell if they were in debt. now the bottoni seells to have drop ped out of the price and there is no telling what the consequences will be. We said the cotton market was controlled by specu lators, and we have no reason to change our opinion, and when ever to staple is ready for mar ket is the time to sell it. The receipts at the ports continue large, but we are convinced that many of the receipts are on pa per only, that they do not exist in fact, and the large port re ceipts is a part of the conspiracy to keep the price from going up. Raw material at the European and Americans mills is short, the crop is short, and there was no surplus left over from last year, notwithstanding this condition, the price is getting lower and lower, which is proof conclusive that it is speculation, and not supply and demand that makes the market. The exposition which is to be held in Charleston next year should commended itself to every progressive man in the State, and we sincerely hope that Clar endon will go to work to have such an exhibition of her re sources as her industries, and the products of her soil will warrant. We know of no better mode of placing before the public the resources of a county than ex hibiting them at an exposition that has its gates thrown open to the world. The Charleston "expo" will come on the heels of the Paris and Pan-American, and that in itself, will be a guar antee that nothing will be left undone to make it a success. The only thing which stands in the way,and we hope that will be rem edied, is the hotel accommoda tion; unless Charleston wakes up to this very important matter we fear that her limited accom modations will cause a limited number of visitors. The visit of the fire chiefs last week only about 400 strong, was sufficient ly alarming to cause the Char leston hotel to warn the travel ing men from going to the city that week. We do not know the manager of the Charleston hotel but whoever he is, the exposi tion committee should rock him to sleep in Cooper river, for his card of warning was calculated to throw a wet blanket on Char leston so far as being able to en tertain visitors. The work on the old St. Charles has begun and when that hostelry is finished, the diamond studded ornament behind the register at the Charleston, will not be writing warnings to the traveling men to keep away, but his time will be taken up in writ ting advertisements for boarders at cut rate prices. The owners of the St. Charles will give the people a hotel not made up of livery and form, but of com fortable rooms and a first class service. This hotel will help the exposition and if a csori-ple more like it should be built, there would be no danger of a lack of hotel accommodations. STATE OF OHIO.
