THE PROHIBITION LAW.
Strinnent Measure Now in Force in
Counties That Voted Out Liquor.
The fifteen counties in which
prohibition went into effect on
November 15 have a stringent
law to obey. After one of the
hardest fought battles known
in South Carolina legislation an
act was passed at the last session
of the General Assembly providing
for the vote to be taken in
the several counties on the liquor
question. Fifteen counties
voted out the dispensary and six
retained the system. The only
counties having dispensaries
now are: Charleston, Richland,
Florence, Georgetown, Aiken
and Beaufort.
Now the other fifteen counties
which had dispensaries will have
to stand by the enactment of
the Legislature, while the six
counties retaining theMispensarv
system will be under the provisions
of the Carey-Cothran act.
The principal provision of the
new prohibition act that has
caused much comment is the
first section. It reads as follows:
"Section 1. Be it enacted by
the General Assembly of the
the State of South Carolina,
That all alcoholic liquors and
beverages, whether manufactured
within this State or elsewhere.
or any mixture by whatsoever
name, which if drunk to
excess will produce intoxication,
are hereby declared to be detrimental,
and their use and
consumption to be against the
morals, good health and safety
of the State, and contraband.
That it shall be unlawful for
any person, firm, corporation or
association within this State to
manufacture, sell, barter, exchange,
receive, accept, give
away to induce trade, deliver,
store, keep in possession in this
State, furnish at public places or
otherwise dispose of any spirituous,
malt, vinous, fermented,
brewed or other liquors and
beverages, or any compound or
mixture thereof which contains
alcohol aiid is used as a beverage,
and which if drunk to excess
will produce intoxication,
except as hereinafter provided."

Remains of Mr. Sam fluitf Sent Back
to His Old Home for Inlermenf.
Back to his old home in Williamsburg
county?a journey of
about 2,000 miles?came the
body of Samuel M Fluitt last
Sunday night from Silver City,
New .Mexico, to rest under his
native sod in the old Williamsburg
cemetery, near where the
deceased was born and spent
his early manhood.
Mr Fluitt enlisted as a volunteer
at the breaking-out of the
Spanish-American war nearly
twelve years ago. lie accompanied
his regiment to Cuba and
while lingering in the "Pearl of
; the Antilles'' met his fate in the
form of one of the native belles.
A rom/ wooing followed,
which e..aeu .n his liappv marriage.
a notice of which appeared
in The Jlecord shortly after the
event occurred some ten years
ago.
From Cuba, it seems, he went
to New Mexico, where, we understand,
his wife pieceded
him in death about six months
ago. They left no children. Mr
Fluitt's death occurred on Friday,
November 12, and at his request
the remains were sent
back to old Williamsburg, where
his thoughts naturallv turned
on the eve of the long journey
to "that bourne from whence no
traveler returns."
Mr Fluitt was a comparative-'
ly young man, being only forty
years old. His father was Mr
Jas H Fluitt, who died some
years ago in this county.
Mr Sam Fluitt's nearest relatives
are three sisters, Mrs Fowler
McKnight ot Greelyville;
I Mrs J II Ilanna of Benson and
i Miss Miriam Fluitt of Kingstree.
The funeral services, conducted
by Rev W A Fairy, took
place at 3:30 p m Monday at the
' cemetery.
The Late Governor John A- Johnson.
There was something about the
I late Governor John A Johnson
(that took hold of t heart of
the nation. Not sin*, the death
j of President McKinley has a pub
lie man been so deeply regretted
by the people of his own State
and of the Middle West; all
unite in mourning the loss of
the Governor of Minnesota.*
That peculiar curl of his lips,
; which strangers sometimes de'
scribed as sarcastic, was mere;
ly the precursor of a genial smile.
| His warm heart was kindliness
never failed to win friends.
Even an acquaintance of many
years loved Governor Johnson
better every time he looked
into those blue eyes that were
the reflection of a noble soul.
* * *
In a sleeping car, on my way
! to Chicago, one night, I found
i him deeply immersed in the
j pages of a closely printed book.
i Needless to say,it was "solid reading
matter," for every moment
jof his life was usefully spent.
! Later the little volume was laid
| aside, and the Governor began
! a conversation which continued
j far into the morning hours;
there was always an earnestness
i in his words, and a fine quality
I in his thought, that impressed
i all who heard him speak. He
was a true and fine type of
country editor who gets close to
the people, and the story of his
life is one of the romances that
| illuminate the history of the
nation.?Joe Mitchell Chappie in

"The most merciless enemy I had
:for 20 years," declares Mrs James
Duncan of Haynesville, Me, ''was
Dyspepsia. I suffered intensely after
eating or drinking and could scarcely
sleep. After many remedies had
failed and several doctors gave me up,
I tried Electric Bitters, which cured
