KLAl DISPENSARY LAW DISCUSSED. Representatives of Eleven County Boards of Control Meet. Columbia, Dec. 12?Pursuant to a call sent out by the Kershaw county "board of control there was held here yesterday a conference of county boards which was attended by representatives of eleven county boards as follows: Kershaw, Richland, Orangeburg', Charleston, Lee, Barnwell, Laurens, Dorchester, Fairfield, Chester and Sumter. Dr. W. J. Dunn, of Kershaw, was elected president and Capt. J. H. Claffy, of Orangeburg, secretary. The members of county boards present discussed the provisions of the Carey-Cothran law in detail and particularly as to such sections as now give practical difficulty in the operation of the dispensaries. The matter of samples, which is not dealt with at all in the law, was chiefly discussed, and it was decided to ask the general assembly to amend the law so that the boards can dispose of samples in some way legally. Chief Davis of Salley Shot. Aiken, Dec. 13.?A telephone message from Salley states that Chief of Police W. H. Davis was shot from ambush there tonight and may die. Mr. Davis was formerly of the police force in Columbia and has been in Salley about two years. It is stated that he has said he knows who shot him and a statement from him may be secured. Since taking charge of the Salley police department he has had serious trouble with two men, M. E. Boylston and D. 0. Fanning. In arresting these, two some time ago he had to use considerable force and they have indicted him for assault and battery and false imprisonment. This case was to have been tried at the last court in Aiken, but was confined. The latest reports received here state that Chief Davis is probably mortally wounded. The Negro Problem. Philadelphia, Dec. 12-'The gravity of the negro problem is not confined to the United States, England faces it in her colonies, the whole world faces it. The problem of the * ' * ll _ * j_l iuiure 01 me race is one 01 me greatest and gravest confronting civilization." Sir John Roger, governor of the English Gold Coast Colony, Southwestern Africa, expressed these views, in an address at the Berean Presbyterian church. "In Africa," he said, "the negroes outnumber the whites in proportion of five millions to 1,000. The greatest trouble is to induce them to work with their hands in trades. The hope of the negro race lies in manual labor. to Sell yoi ges, buggies, and wagons, set re in a position to give you jl.
