Edmund H Deas, colored of Darlington, has been appointed by E A Webster, the new collec lor of internal revenue, deputy Dollector for the second district. I which' comprises the counties ol Chester. Chesterfield, Cherokee, Clnrenden, Darlington, Florence, Horry. Kersbaw, Lancaster, Marion, Marlboro, Williamsburg and, York. There has been thir.een homo- j cides i-i Sumter cbuuty since Jan.! 1, 1897, and this is said to-be tlie j largest number recorded in any; county ih the *9tide during the I same period. \ This is certainly a j had record, and one that no coun- j ty desires.

He confined I? himself to (he dispensary law, i . almost entirely. ' His entire inter| view is published in another ool? / omn, hit here is an extract, which pretty well covers* the entire The most difficult problem that confronts its to-day is that of the liquor traffic. The dispensary; I tjuuk. is the best solution of the ^ question, but as the Outfits have * decided that the- dispensary is not a police regulation I am in MR favor of amending the dispensary law, so as to make it a police regulation by eliminating the profit feature, and, if necessary; not to sell :t as a beverage, but only far mediciua! and sacramental pr.r(poses. Those who advocate high - "/lifencse have sure'y not read hfj carrefulhr the decision of the Court for in (he case of Scot t vs Donal v>; the Court advances the views that the State could prohibit, they could inspect, but could do no; mote. It* the dispensary is not a police regulation, and the State, ^cannot control the liquor under the dispensary law, it certainty t' cfcnnot do so under high license. Besides,* nnder a high license system i t would i n a lew month" degenerate into the open 1 bar room. As a ru'e, men who would buy a license to sell whiskyg ey would have no moral character and would be altogetlier irresponsible and perfectly indifferent to the welfare of the State and of the - people. Their only object would be to ma ke money, and theccn tituttonal restrictions would bt disregarded. . This liquor figlu s not a factional issue. It is a j figh, between the moral elements! y of onr people and the liquor met.. UI propose to go before the, . people on my record, and it nec-1 essarv, to advocate the policy just outlined. Some of my enemies | | have said I might be re-elected because of the unwritten law to :, five a fovernor two terms. I want H understood that no one need keep out of 'the race on thisac I ount.aici I would not have it as a mere matter of precedent if my j efforts did not warrant ai> endor?e- ' ment.
