The bill as presented reads: “That all fermented, distilled or oilier intoxicating liquors or liquids transported into any State or terri tory or remaining therein for use, consumption, sa’e or storage there in vmon arrival within the borders of the state and before or after deliv ery to the consignee in such State or territory by subject to the operation and effect of the laws of such State Or territory enacted in the exercise of its police powers to the same extent aud m the same man ner as though such liquids or liquors had been produced in such State or territory and shall not be exempt therefrom by reason of be ing introduced therein in original packages or otherwise.” Senator Gore of Oklahoma intro duced a bill providing for the elec tion of United States senators by popular vote. , sembly of the State of South Carolina in regular session for the year 1808. “The humble petition of the un signed respectfully shows: ‘‘That the dispensary syfitem-for the sale of liquors in the county of Charleston in said State in which our petitioners reside is not desired Ey a large majority of the voters and residents of mid county as your pe titioners verily believe. ' That the same is not suited .to the ds, circumstances and conditions needs, of the people mostly affected thereby: “That for these reasons the said system is not supported by public sentiment, difficult to enforce and not calculated to demand observance or respect. “That your petitioners humbly pray that such legislation may be enacted as shall restore the license system to this community, which was of force at the time of the original enactment of the State dispensary law in the year eighteen hundred and ninety-two, with the modifica tions required by the State constitu tion of 1896; and your petitioners feel assured that thereby will be se cured, not only all the benefits that could possibly be expected from the dispensary system now of force but the some would operate also for the well being and upbuilding of our people.” .

Firmly believing that a large ma- >ple of Charleston will with this movement; approach the performance of our duty with confidence. Our confidence is strong because in principle our people ore at heart opposed to the dispensary liquor sys tem. In their opposition thereto they have had ready and intelligent pub lic support from the Charleston news papers for the past fifteen years, ft is further strengthened beca jfirity of the peoj be'in sympathy v we approach the mse we can refer to a law abiding and law respecting condition which ob- w respect: tained here for many, many years before the first establishment of the State dispensary a condition to which ■we verily believe the people of Char leston long to be restored, and which as much revenue as that contemplated by the dispensary sys tem. This confidence is further strength ened by the favor according the “home rule” doctrine in the lost State election. And finally our confidence in the people of the State Is strong that fpalnr-eatttv.

Since that ttmef over 7,400,900 telephones hare been pnt In service. 'Otnpany for exploiting the device, which was leased, not sold, to the users. The general public immediately realised the Im mense advantage of the telephone and aoon every large city had Its exchange. The “Beil” companies, however, did not ejare to develop the smaller towns, and the vil lage and rural commnnltlce were not con sidered at all. Thla waa hut natural, aa In large towns, high rentals could be charged, short lines need only be built, and a small la vestment brought targe returns: whereat, In the country, the lines were longer and the subscribers fewer. It was not uetll the advent of the fN- DEPENDENT telephone movement about ten years 'ago,, when* local home owned companies were formed l<f~¥upply service where the “Beir would not. that trie- phone* were placed In -each of the fanner, thla being rendered possible by the fact that the original “Bell*' patent* had ex pired and that nuiheroua'concerns had in vented Improvements on the original IdOa, thus placing In the bands of the great American public, better telephone equip ment than It waa possible to aecnre from the monopoly, which dkL not sell, but only rented It* products. ^ ^ The INDEPENDENTS turned their <t. tention to the great'mast of • undeveloped territory to be found fn rural communi ties, and aoon lines sprang up In every direction. In Iowa and In the great North- weat, the farmers In'various communities have combined, and by each man buying hi* own telephone and building the line, which la, after all, a very simple process, telephone service over an entire county or state la possible, and the actual cost of operating thrhe systems amounta to only a few centa per month for each ‘phone. The advantages of having a telephone are many. First. Is the advantage of being able to call a neighbor In case of sickness, fire, danger from tramps or other sudden calamities. Second, come the social features. The fact that appointments can be made or social affairs discussed by the women folks who aro thus enabled to visit the neighbors and learn what is taking place without a tiresome drive over dark and muddy roads If there Is a good musician In the neigh borhood. the receiver Is taken down, the neighbors all listen at their ’phones, and the music can be heard In twenty different homes many miles apart, thus enabling many to enjoy what hitherto has only been possible for a few. . Third. t» the Immense financial advantage the fanner himself gains by wing able to call np the nearest town tod find market price of a load of corn, cotton, ete.. before he bring* dime Into town. It U sleo possible with the 'phone to ca|l up the bank, or the hardware store In caaa„a, piece of machinery..Ja broken, and duplicate . parts needed, or It ’la possible to call up the ' utore and have them send something out by a neighbor who Is coming your way; In Jjtbcr words, the telephone will monthly save tea times what It costa to the farmer. The county merchant aoon realised that his business la more than douliled by the . neighborhood 'phone line. People buy more ’ when It Is easy to ask for. He can buy cotton quickly or esn notify his customers of some special bargain.
