\ { ?_ JU ' STATE CAMPAIGN AT GONWAY Continued from First Iktgo. the iiquor problem." Other oandidates say they favor the Dispensary, but they can't nor don't give ^ a reason for it. The Dispensary is not a money making institution, nor is it a moral institution. The old negro who digs potatoes adds more to the material interest of tlx State than all the men engaged in the liquor business- Whiskey does not make men religious. Bishop Potter's Sub-way Tavern soon degenerated into the bar room. Money spent for dispensary liquor does not come into the channels of legitimate trade; makes men unlit to earn an honest livelihood. As to the profit feature, you rob a man of $.\(I0 to get twenty cents for the schools Instead of decreasing it has increased drinking. Dispensary sales increased from one million to three million dolh-rs. Crime increased in a like ratio. Homicides in this State have increased one hundred per cent since the establishment of the dispensary. Three-fourths of crime committed in the State is traceable to the dis pensary.

Opposes lobbying. I lus Loon opposed to tlio dispensary ever since it was forced on us. As a business institution it is a miserable failure. In the last seven years it lias paid forty-one cents to the pupil to the school fund. Will any mother ask for this small amount? We have no prohibition law on our Statute books, Ofliocrs are not enforcing the law against blind timers, but are trying to create a sentimen against prohibition. Kvery ?odv believes the charges of corruption in the State Dispell sary Stands for the Ur?ce law. Admonished the peo]ile not to elect men to the (lencral Assembly that would force the dispensary back on them. Notwithstanding Tillman, seventeen counties have voted the dispensary out; keep it out, because it is impossible to make it clean. Ansel is a straddler, ar.d Manning ls looking to the whiskey element for his support. Iv. I. Manning. Said lie spoke under dillicultios. as t he other candidates had exhausted the vocabulary in their gladsome praise of the Independent Republic and her people.

The common schools l..,,,^ 11 ? < uavu niruc sources <)i revenue, tlio poll tux, the constitutional three mill tax, and the right to vote a special levy on themselves for^school purposes, and if the law was enforced these would ho sullieient. Property is not properly assessed, but we are making progress, cannot make the leap all at once. Favors a radical change in the method of assessing property, real and personal. The liquor question is different in liorry from what it is in other counties, because in this county the dispensaries were located outside of incorporated towns. As long as the Inter-State Commerce laws are in operation it is impossible to enforce prohibition. So we must accept the next best thing, the Dispensary People believe that rottoness exist in the State Dispensary, and unless this can be eliminated, he will join the peoplo in their demand for its abolition, lie explained the Raysor-Manning bill.

Says he served five years as assistant Secretary of State. R. M. McOown Said this was his first opportunity 1 to address an Horry audience. He v is assistant Secretary of State, and J being just from the field ofexperien- : ee is well able to talk of the duties , of the office. Stands on his record and points with pride to the endorsement of the Democratic Convention of his county and resolution of the General Assembly. Pledges his best services if elected. J. B.
