TIIK STATK. “AIOKAL INSTI fOOMll X
The last annual report of the Board
of Control has attracted general at
tention ai d varied comment. The
array of figures exhibited is start
ling and suggestive, and deserves to j
be thoroughly studied in all its
bearings.
The State has collected from its
citizens #2 2.28 (181 20 for liquors fur
nished through its dispensaries dur
ing the past year. That is over
a head for every mar., woman, and
child in the State, and over $10 for
♦'vjry average family. The net profits
on sales amount to $040,248,12 and the
amount turned over to the school
fund is $120 9(12 2o The expenses
incurred it: operating the dispensary
machine amount. to $1(J.> 4;>9,(12
which amount must be deducted
from the net profits on sales. r ihis
additional sum represents what the
people pay annually for the privilege
of engaging in in the whisky busi
ness.
The Greenville Xews in a series of
vigorous editorials has shown that
over a quarter of a million of dollars
has been sent out of the State by the
well-to-do class of people for better
liquors than the dispensaries keep,
and that this enormous tax of over a
half million of dollars has been
wrested mainly from the poorer
classes of the people.
We were made to believe when the
dispensary system was established, j
that the immense profits accruing to j
the State would materially lower the j
taxes—indeed it was claimed that
these profits would be almost, if not,
quite sufficient to defray the current
expenses of the State government,
and that taxes would be reduced to
almost, nothing. Vet these profits
have been realized for more than a
decade, and instead of such an ideal
con :ummat ion, the people are paying
moie taxes today than they have
paid at any one time be f ore in their
lives. There never before has been
a time when more strenuous efforts
were made to discover modes of swell
ing the amount of taxes than are
made at the present to discover pro
perty not on the tax books (>vhich is
right to strain up assessments, and to
resort to every known ar' dice by which
money may be raised for State, county
and municipal purposes. The dispen
sary which is pouring a half million of
dollars into the State treasury every
year has not reduced taxes one dol
lar and it never will do it.
The Greenville News opposes tin-
dispensary as a business enterprise,
holding that individuals under the
constitution can be licensed to deal
in liquors under dispensary regula
tions and that these by dealing in
liquors of better quality would catch
the trade that now goes to other
states and thereby keep a vast
amount of money at home. The
Spartanburg Journal thinks that the
dispensary is establishing itself in
the favor of the people and upon the
whole is doing fairly well; while other
papers are expressing various opin
ions in regard to it.
We care nothing for the profits
that it turns over to the state—noth
ing for the $120 000 that it furnishes
for education, VVe oppose it because
it is a usurpation, a tyranny, and an
outrage. The State has no more
right to deal in whisky than It has
to deal in cloth groceries, leather, or
hardware, and debar its citizens from
the privilege of dealing in the same.
The dispensary is further a big
political machine, dangerous to de
moorutic principles, a moral stain on
the character of South Carolina, a
business unworthy of a great state.
We do know whether drunken- I
ness has been diminished or increasMfl ]
under the wonting-* of the system. '
W T e do dot know, however, that the
dispensaries sell every hort'e of
whisky that they can und- r.the law.
Wo know fur h r that the State by
engaging n the husirn-^s pu s its ,-ij.

recital on the grand Exposition or

and a reception by the faculty and
students to all former students and
present friends of the college.
The press of the State will confer
a favor on many in all parts of the
country by kindly extending this

WOMEN AND SOCIETY.
All communications to this column should
lx- addressed to 1*. O. Box lai.)
Exquisite detail is the conspicuous
note in this season’s fashion. The 1
continued vogue of the separate waist
in the greatest variety manes it pos- j
sible for one with even lees than a
moderate income to present an ap- |
pearance stylish and correct. Small ,
remnants of rich trimmings can be ;
obtained at reduced prices, and a very i
little of these extreme novelties gives 1
a bodice an effect pleasing and up-to- ,
date.
The woman not blessed with a
plethoric purse, if she plans wisely
and is observant, can dress almost
as well as the rich woman ; but if not
her best costume can be as handsome
us a single one of the wealthier wo
man. The latter may possess more
outfits, but otherwise there needljbe
but iiltle difference in their ward
robe.

frequent desire to

convincing proof that the kidneys and blad
der are out of order.
What to Do.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-
Root, the t;reat kidney remedy fulfills every
wish in curing rheumatism, pain in the
back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part
of the urinary passage. It corrects inability
to hold v/ater and scalding pain in passing
it, or bad effects following use of liquor,
wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled to go often
during the day, and to get up many times
during the night. The mild and the extra
ordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon
realized. It stands the highest for its won
derful cures of the most distressing cases.
If you need a medicine you should have the
best. Sold by druggists in 50c. and$l. sizes.

wonderful discovery
and a book that tells
