In view of ‘the strong wet sentiment-in the,, egislature, however, it is possibly that such an effort would have result ed in failure, but the principle that applied then would certainly apply in ! the future should sentiment in this [county continue to be dry. ■ "* While we do ndt, believe if prkctlv Seek License For dent of Clinton mill, who i.s a cleri cal eniployee"of the mill, testified ye.sUu'day that mo.st of the cotton ' used by the mill. was South Caro f Store cotton and that jiroilucts of the .\n application for a retail dealer’s mill, mostly print cloths, Were sold through Stockton Commission com pany of New York.
