HORRY AND THE TOBACCO 1NDUSTRY. He who runs may road the hwlding signs of prosperity in thiseounty. It has not oomo;t)ut it has start od. The beginning of permanent and valuable improvement are seen on every hand in town aSid noticeable upon every farm we pass in the country. Faces are brighter, steps are quicker; the light of higher purpose sparkles in the eye, and the vim of a renewed spirit speaks in the voice of our friends. Trade is brisker, though prices are higher. For the hand has gathered energy and the heart strength of purpose as the worker handles even some of the re ward of his work and the toiler linds a few more of the results of his toil staying with him bv his plow. And he who runs may read tie conditions of. and the reasons of these signs of budding prosperity, it is purely and simply a well (list rib uted increase in the amount of money in circulation among our people. Some five or six years ago a young man then connected with this paper made a careful approximation of the pel* capita of money circulation then in this county, lie interviewed business men. farm "s, and tax ollicials and reached a conclusion something like this: AI ii -a' 20.000 people, say 4,000 families, were called on to pay some $20,000 taxes and found it exceedingly hard to do so. in more man one instance, it was learned that a part of tin1 property itself, on account of lack <>f income, had to be sold to get money to pay the taxes. In some portions of the county it was estimated that there was hardly 50 cents per capita; in others, where crops were beginning to be diversified and tobacco was being planted some, the per capita was higher -estimated at some five or six dollars for parts of one or two small townships. For the whole county the estimate w is about $2.ho during the fall of the year. This is less than Mexico's per capita, about t he same as China's. It would be interesting to have a ^ fairly correct approximation of the present per capita circulat ion during the busiest season of the year. We may say with some assurance, from what we do know, that there is more money in general circulation to-day in xlie county t han lias been at anv time during the last twenty yeais Again he who runs muv read tlie cause of this condition of increase i? the money circulation here. Wc have a money crop, tobacco, whicl has brought i ii to t lie county certain ly not less than $50,000 in clean cash, there has been a higher price for cot ton this fall; and there has been n steady increase of strength in tin timber and lumber markets. Wc have heretofore depended on our exports of cotton and naval stores mainly, a little lumber, a few shingles, now and then a barrel ol fish from the coast, and beginning only a year or so ago, some few packages of tobacco from the Northern corner, and on these alone for our v ^ , \ ||P X- > money Most of those products wont from the fanner to the mor ehuut to pay for the year's supplies, and from the morehant t.? his New York broker or faetor to pav for his season's goods. Not too inueh money flowed in, and whatever nrofits were made on hotli these exchanges were accustomed to find lodgment in the merchant's pocket, and were invested in foreign enter prises or hoarded and carried away when enough was accumulated to start business in a more progressive section. The few honorable exceptions to thi* migration rule . among these who made money in Horry des rvo every credit for their expressed confidence in the future of their county, and should have the reward laecrui.g to such expressed e >n faience. It is pretty much the same old thing with us as to marketing our cotton and naval stores, except there has been a little increase in prices this full. Hut the marketing of the tobacco we are beginning to produce is quite a different, thing. It is paid for in cash on a directly j compelitive market. The money it : solf passes through the producer's I hands, A million, a half million, <>r a hundred pounds of tobacco brings its market value in cash money into immediate circulation in the very community in which it was raised. A few months of such ha\e certainly had a great effect upon this town and county The county probably has raisad not less limn -i milli.n, unci a half pounds. Tin* demand for Carolina pine lain bar seems to be strong and lasting: there is a growing eonlidenee that we will develop a Southern demand a-- well as a Southern supply of eot ton which will aid the good feeling of the cotton planter; good shipping facilities are attracting truck larm er> to new lands and extending a great industry; the Far Kaste.n market for bright tobaccos is hardly fairly opened. There is reason for our sincere hope that the light we see is the light of a new day. that the stimulation the industries if our county feels, in conuron with the whole South, is from the bounding vigor of new life and healthy growth and not merely ex-nicotinn.

Tmk readers of the daily press who have been alllieted with the public ventilation of the misdoings in and about the State Dispensary are to be couoratulated upon itsdiscon i tnance What lu.s been %i:jv ?I by either s'ule by t he discussion is very uncertain, Icyflit from other -oure v:s has been thro ui < n the Dispell sary management and altogether put the dispensary ? n an unsavory po sition. One tiling seems evident, that t he officials a ml their subordi nates indulge their appetite for strong drink, at least, occasionally. No man who even occasionally in dulses his appetite can successfully manage a whiskey business the Devil is in it and as soon as a man begins to indulge, he begins to introduce the Devil with all that that implies, and the only exorcism is in absolute abstinence. The le<pslaB tare will evidently look into this matter and in its wisdom devise some method of preventing a recurrence of like abuses. What specific course will be pcrsued by that body cannot now be foreseen or determined, but certainly some measure can be found which will (>nsure a more genteel and bus , incsslikc management of ihe concern or it should bo abolished. y?

The pleasant method and beneficial efYeets of tlie well known remedy, Svkih' ok Flos, manufactured by the ('a i.iroKN ia FlO Syrup Co., illustrate the value of obtaining the liquid laxative principles of plants known to be medicinally laxative and presenting them in the form most refreshing to the taste and acceptable to the system. It is the one perfect strengthening laxative, idealising the system effectually, dispi lling colds, headaches and fevers gently yet pmmptly and enabling one to overcome, habitual constipation permanently. Its perfect freedom from every objectionable quality and substance, ami its acting on the kidneys, ! liver and bowels, without weakening ! or irritating them, make it the ideal laxative. In the process of manufacturing figs are used, as they are pleasant to the taste, but the medicinal qualities of the remedy are obtained from senna and other aromatic plants, by a method known to the Camfornia Fio Syrup Co. only.
