Although the goueral asueuiby does
not moot until January 10, tho dispon- |
nary and prohibition forces wro alien
ing foi tlto huttlo. I lit' I 'rohibitionists
Hay thoy can control tho next legisla
ture ami will thoiefore accept nothing
short of a straight prohibition law.
Tho difiponmry pooplo claim that tho
d in poll dai v ii Htrougor in tho State than
over Ix foro, ami tliut tho prosout law j
with aineii'liiioutrt in somo unimportant
dohuls will stand ('ii tho statute hooka,
I h/To wore a n n in hor of I 'i oh i hi t ion iats
nUfynding tho Hlato Fair in Columbia,
yr numlior of leaders mot and discussed
vv??y?4 and mehii* of having a straight
prohibition law enacted by tho lioxt
general assembly. Mr. feather*
atouo was thoro aud other loaders al
most aa well known what plans were
dooided upon are unknown, but thoy
u.adh the nnnouucoinout that thoy
wouM havo control of tho legislature,
and bo would give tho people ot this
Stato a prohibition law pure aud
simple.
What adds intoioM to llio situation la
that the governor's position is un
known. 1 1 o was olocto I as tho expo,
uont of tho dispensary, 1 ut only u tiny
or two bofoio. tho aocomi primary an
nufatborod pamphlet found its way on
tho streets announcing that wore tho
governor re*eleoted, ho would rocoiu
mend locul option. I ho governor at
tho time rofiiHod to have nnythiug to
nay on the question nor has ho ainee
spoken about it. Tho Stato board of
control are going ahead preparing
thoir annual reports to ttio legislature.
They propose to inako some rocom?
metidatioua an to changes in tho luw
which they think will vory much bet
tor .it. One of tho most, important of
tho changed, it ban boon learned,
which thoy proposo to rcoominoud iB
tho abolition of the county boards of
control. Tho'contral board maintaiua
that tho inembors of tho county boards
look upon their position as ono more of
honor than of work. As a consequence
the management of the county dispen
saries )'h left almost entiroly in tho
hands of tho dispensers. If they bo
honest men everything is conducted
straight ; if not thoro are opportunities
for thorn to gouge t|10 state on suoh
matters for instance, as broakago.
Tho report of the State board will
consequently embody in it a recom
mendation that the county boards bo
done away with and instead tho county
dispensaries bo placed directly in the
hands of tho central board. It will be
urged that thoy can thus bo better
managed and any irregularities chock
ed by a system of inspectors The so
inspectors will visit every dinpensary
when a shipment is received and look
to it that no overcharges aro made for
break ago. Tho Stato board will arguo
that money cau bouavod l>3' this chango
in system of keeping check on tho
count y d isponsers. Tho per diem of
the county boards, thoy will claim, will
more than pay tho inspectors and tho
surplus can thus bo turned into tho
State treasury.
This is the most important amend*
mont which tho/itatti board will inako.
There aro several minor matters to
which attention will bo called. In par
ticular will a strong effort bo inado to
make as strong a financial showing as
possible. Already every oxpenso pos
sible ii boiug lopped off and somo of
tho things now put down in the quar
terly reports as unearned profits will
bo transferred to tlto "profit" column,
l ake for instance the drays. Thoy will
ho sold lit tho noxt mooting of tho
board and Iho money placed to tho
credit of the cash account ot tho dis
pensary. A number of the members, both I
of the senate and house, have expressed
themselves on tho whiskey p obleni,
but enough have lefused to commit
themselves to leave the whole question,
in doubt.

The Inhabitants of St. Lucia have
discovered a wonderful plant. It
"grows in a cavern, iu nu immense ba
sin of brackish water timt has over
flowed from the sea. To t Hf* sight it Is
a perfect flower, but on tile approach
of a hand or a stick It retires quickly ,
out of sight.
Close examination shows that the
middle of the llowcr-like disc is pro
vided with four filaments, which move
round the phtals with a brisk, spou
tancous motion. Each of these fila
ments is provided with pinchers fur
receiving prey. This animal Uower
lives upon the spawn of fish and mar
ine Insects. When ?ver the piiifohers on
the filaments make a catch, file petlas
'flose and there Is 110 escape for what
ever has b .en so unfortunate as to
fall into the creature's maw.
