r r ' el* The Whisky Question. Editor County Record: I will, in as few words as possible, give mv views on the county dispensary law. I do not believe in any law that discriminates against neighborhoods or sections of the State. We are a free county and people?why should a law be enacted by our law-makers and then the power or authority of fVio law Iih left to three individuals of the countv to sav where the sale of whisky should be carried on? The old dispensary system was superior to the county dispensary system, because the question was decided by a majority of the people and not by a county board. If all of our towns In a county where whisky is sold are not allowed equal rights, then I think our law-makers should rid our State of the whisky aud let our people order for their use from other States. Then our towns will all share equally. I am one of the citizens of Williamsburg county and State of South Carolina who does not believe in giving special rights to one class of people and denying these rights to another. The rum law as n now I stands does this in a high-handed way. I have been reading the CareyCothran act for several days and note in Section 584, Volume I, Code of Laws of 1902: "The said board is 1 hereby authorized and required to 1 establish a dispensary or dispensaries as the said board may deem proper, or close the same, except at the i connty seat." Now, it seems to me i that the board's power fails to allow it to close a dispensary when it is located at the county seat. Note the < discrimination in the law. Also note the undemocratic point of this law ( to give a board of three men a right , to open a dispensary in a town over . the protest of its people against it or to close one if in the board's wishes t they see fit to do so. I notice a bill on the calendar in the State Senate ^ to enact a law against discriminating in the sale of kerosene oil and other products beiDg sold cheaper by the manufacturers in one !owa ( than another. Our dispensary law 1 gives one town the right to the sale of ttitn and denies it to another town, both towns in the same county. Away with the devil's brush I broom, whisky! He uses this broom ' to sweep the moral character of ' young men, fathers and husband?, , and he,the evil one, uses this broom j to sweep up victims before the crim- i inal court and bring sorrow to the ; hearts and homes of thousands of 1 hp nonnle of South Carolina. The - r-x name of whisky is evil; the law that controls the sale is wrong; the Supreme Being will in a few years 1 show the wrong and evil of whisky ( to the rising generation and it will 1 be put out of our land and couuty. j Subscriber. < Harpers, S C, February 22.
