Places Them I'nder Sherill' Martin,
Who is Instructed to Knt'orce law.
Columbia. -May 19.?Governor
Manning this morning broke his silence
regarding law enforcement in
the city of Charleston, and gave out
a statement to the effect that he had
appointed constables and placed them
under Sheriff Martin to suppress the
illicit sale of liquor in the city of
Charleston. The constables have already
begun raiding, and the governor
is holding the sheriff to a strict
accountability. . "I told Sheriff .Martin,"
says the statement of the governor,
"that the responsibility was
mine and that 1 expected a strict
compliance by him and his men."
This was the first public statement
of the governor on the situation since
his letter to .Mayor Grace of Saturday.
in which he said the report of
Chief of Police Cantwell on the places
alleged to have quit the liquor business
as a result of the raids by the
city police was "erroneous and mis
ieaamg.
Governor's Statement.
The statement issued by the governor
follows in full:
"Saturday I wrote the following
letter to Sheriff J. Elmore Martin.
Charleston: "I require and direct you
as sheriff of the county of Charleston
to enforce the laws with reference
to the sale of liquors in the city
of Charleston as well as in the county
of Charleston. You will please confer
with me in regard to the force you
think necessary. 1 want results.'
"To enable him to do this work I
decided to furnish him with a few
constables, as his regular deputies
were not enough to do this additional
work. I expect hint to direct the
movements of these constables, and
to see that they do their duty.
"This will in no way absolve the
municipal authorities from "enforcing
the law against the illicit sale of liquor
in their city. Heretofore it has
be'en a custom in Charleston to divide
"Aimfv hotwf>f>n the municioal au-I
IHC \,vuui; i/vv .
thorities and the sheriff, the police
having charge of the city, the sheriff
having charge of the country districts.
I would be disposed to conform
to this custom if conditions resulting
from such a division had been
satisfactory.
"The act authorizes and conditions
make it necessary that this arrangement
be changed. It was. therefore,
on that account I requested and required
Sheriff Martin to see that |
these constables under his direction j
to their duty in suppressing the illicit
sale of liquor in the city as well
as in the country. I told Sheriff Martin
that the responsibility was mine,
and that I expected a strict compliance
by him and his men and that
they should proceed to carry out my
instructions.
"I took this step as I was forced
to the conclusion that permanent results
were not being obtained in
Charleston."
Final Question.

kids to bed." grumbled Jenkins, who
had vainly tried to settle down for a
quiet five minutes.
The young Jenkinses went aloft,
and there seemed some prospect of
peace until Harold, the eldest, who
had been allowed half an hours'
grace, began butting in with his ridiculous
queries.
"What on earth do you want
now?" demanded the harassed parent,
as he desperately flung down the
paper.
"Well, dad, did Adam only have
one name?"
"Of course he did. Now look here,
any more silly questions and you go
to bed. too. my son."
"Yes. pa, but can't 1 ask a little
bit more about that question?"
"Go on with it," said the patient
pa. "And. mind, this is the very
last."
"Well, was Adam his first name or
his last name?"?Buffalo Enquirer.
His Definition of Water.
Upon the eve of the annual meeting
of the Kentucky Educational as
SOCiauon, auomer mui ? v>i ure
lie schools may become amiss, says
the Louisville Times. This is one
that is said to have happened at the
Washington school where part of the
original work was definitions of familiar
things:
"Johnny Jones, what is water?"
asked the teacher.
For the moment Johnny was
stumpped. Only for a moment,
though, for he triumphantly answered.
"Water is what turns black
when you put your hands in it."
Too Literal.
A tradesman in a certain town put
a box outside the shop one day labeled.
"For the Blind." A few weeks
afterward the box disappeared.
"Halloa! What's happened to
your box for the blind?" he was asked.
"Oh. I got enough money," he, replied.
"and," pointing upward to the
new canvas blind that sheltered his
shop window, "there's the blind. Not
bad, is it?"?London Answers.

Loan of SOOO.<?<)(> to National Hank of
Sumter.?Hate Only I'er Cent.
Columbia. May I'l.?The State of
South Carolina today borrowed $60".
urto at 2.69 per cent interest per annum
from tlie National Bank of Sumter
to meet the running expenses of
the State government until taxes
come in. This is the lowest rate of
interest ever secured by the State.
The money is available at once. It is
to be repaid in January out of the
taxes. The loan is accounted a great
stroke for Governor .Manning and one
of the many beneficient results of his
administration. This act alone will
save thousands of dollars to the taxpayers
of South Carolina. The loan
was awarded to the National Bank of
Sumter by the financial board of the
State, which is composed of Governor
.Manning, Comptroller General Sawyer
and State Treasurer Carter. The
Sumter bank was the lowest of several
bidders. The following bids
were submitted:
National Bank of Sumter. Sumter,
2.69 per cent.; Palmetto National
Bank, of Columbia, 2.75 per cent;
Bank of Spartanburg, 2.S9 per cent:
i-> !_ ? v-?,;???i RonV of PooW Hill
f-eujj 1C ? . > a l lUiiai V4 ,
3 per cent: Bank of Columbia, 3.64
per cent: Bank of Charleston, X. B.
A., 3.75 to 3.95; Farmers' Loan and
Trust company, of New York. 4 per
cent. These rates of interest are for
one year.
Lowest on Hecor<k
The rate of 2.69 per year is the
lowest ever secured by the State, the
lowest heretofore having been 3 per
cent., which was secured once during
the administration of Governor
Ansel and once during the administration
of C. L. Blease. The State
last year during the summer under
C. L. Blease borrowed $350,000 to
meet the running expenses of the
State, for which they paid 3 1-2 per
cent, interest, and last fall under C.
L. Blease the State borrowed $110.000,
for which they paid 6 per cent.
It is interesting to note that the
money borrowed last fall under the
Blease administration cpst 6 per cent,
while the money borrowed today under
Governor .Manning costs only
2.69 per cent.
There is rejoicing at the low rate
of interest at which the loan for the
State was secured and many are congratulating
Governor .Manning, Comptroller
General Sawyer and State
Treasurer Carter, and are felicitating
the people of the State on having
i such a jwise business administration
at the helm. "It just shows what
j benefifits are going to accrue to the
i tion," was the comment of one obl
tion," fas the comment of one observer
here today.
'The National Bank of Sumter,
w'nich secured the loan, is one of the
stable financial institutions of the
Pee-Dee. Its president is J. P. Booth,
who succeeded Governor Richard I.
Manning as president when the latter
resigned just prior to coming to
Columbia to assume the governorship.
JUICY FINDS FOR ROOSEVELT.
After 42 Hours Consideration Twelve
Men Decide Barnes Not Libelled.
Syracuse. X. Y., May 22.?Twelve
men chosen as a jury to determine
whether Theodore Roosevelt libelled
William Barnes when he charged that
he worked through a "corrupt alliance
between crooked business and
crooked politics" and that he was
"pnrrnntiv allied with Charles F.
.Murphy, of Tammany Hall." today,
returned a verdict in favor of the
former president. In the belief ot
the jury everything Col. Roosevelt
said about the former chairman of
the Republican State committee was
true and. therefore, Mr. Barnes was
not libelled.
The verdict was returned after forty
ballots had been taken and the
jury had considered for 42 hours the
evidence which was presented during
five weeks of the trial. Nineteen
hours were consumed before eleven
of the jurymen, who since the second
ballot had stood together, persuaded
Juror No. 11?Edward Burns, a Syracuse
motorman. and a Republican?
to join with them in returning a verdict
which Col. Roosevelt later declared
to be "typically American."
For eleven of this nineteen hours
the jurors in favor of an uncondiI
tional verdict for the defendant talked
to the one who. while himself
favoring a similar verdict, insisted
that the court costs and disbursements
should be divided between the
Mvn nrin finals
A Mean Trick.
A city y?uth secured a job with
Farmer Jones. The morning after
his arrival, promptly at 4 o'clock
the farmer rapped on his door and
told him to get up. The youth protested.
"What for?" lie asked, rubbing his
eyes.
"Why. we're going out to cut oats,'
replied the farmer.
"Are they wild oats?" queried the
youth, "that you've got to sneak uf
on 'em in the dark?"

Houston, Texas.?In an interesting
letter from this city, Mrs. S. C. Burton
writes as follows: "I think it is my duty
to tell you what your medicine, Cardui,
! the woman's tonic, has done for me.
I was down sick with womanly trouble,
and my mother advised several different
treatments, but they didn't seem to do
me any good. I lingered along for three
or four months, and for three weeks. J
was in bed, so sick I couldn't bear foi
any one to walk across the floor.
My husband advised me to try Cardui,
the woman's tonic. I have taken two
bottles of Cardui, am feeling fine, gained
15 pounds and do all of my housework.
Friends hardly know me, 1 am so well."
If you suffer from any of the ailments
50 common to women, don't allow the
trouble to become chronic. Begin taking
Cardui to-day. It is purely vegetable,

way on the weakened womanly constitution.
