w W- ■ •>:S* . JB x THE lEDGEH Tuesday ana Friday, “d. H./DeCamp, Editor and j i A. W. Griffith, Local Editor N0TE3 AND G MME 4T8. Editor Hoey announces that begin ning January 1st his most excellent paper. The Cleveland Star, will be issued semi-weekly; but the price will rermin the same. Brother Koey is undertaking a herculean task the publication of a twice-a-week paper at $1. We trust the new venture will prove pleasant and profitable. • • • Comptroller General Jones announc- (m that county auditors and boards of assessors will be .required to compel tax payers to list their property at its true valuation in the future. This would, no doubt, he the proper thing to do but it would come pretty hard on the numerous tax dodgers of the State. Certainly It would give the State, county and towns all the tax money they would need. It appears to us, however, that the tax rate is already excessively high and this new plan would about double the receipts, thus giving the officials more money to squander. What we need is more retrenchment and reform, but of a different variety from the last lot dish ed out by the political cooks. • • * 1 Last Monday the Supreme Court of the United States decided that each and every dispensary in South Caro lina must pay license just like any Other barroom. We -have opposed the dispensary for several reasons, the principal ones being that the institu tion was harmful to our citizenship because of its baneful influence: that it was wrong for the commonwealth to engage in and monopolize a busi ness which it forbade its citizens to pursue; that it was building up a gigantic and monstrously coi nipt political machine. These are the principal reasons why we have op posed it and this decision of the United States Supreme Court gives strength, to our view, because it is the highest and most exalted authority in this country. T HE above picture of the man and fish is the trade mark of Scott’s Emulsion, and is the synonvm for strength and purity. It is sold in almost all the civilized coun tries of the globe. If the cod fish became extinct it would be a world-wide calam ity, because, the oil that comes from its liver surpasses all other fats in nourishing and life-giving properties. Thirty years ago the proprietors of Scott’s Emul sion found a way of preparing cod liver oil so that everyone can take it and get the full value of the oil without the objectionable taste. Scott’s Emulsion is the best thing in the world for weak, backward children, thin, delicate people, and all conditions of wasting and lost strength. Send for free sample.
