buke the servant's presumption, the
latter jerked his thumb in the direction
of tlie door, and aunounced:
"Pa^peben has come to see you."
Now. the crown prince was expecting
a call from his father, the emperor,
and as "pappchen" literally means "little
papa" his astonishment Increased.
"Puppcben!" be grasped as soon as
he could articulate. Then, thinking
that the servaut surely must have beeu
drinkfug to dare to speak of the emperor
in such a familiar way, he muttered
to himself, while bis eyes were
fixed on the man in amazed inquiry.
"Is he drunk?"
The servant apparently thought the
whispered remark was a confidential
request for information as to the prospective
visitor's condition, for after
scratching bis head in some perplexity
he leaned closer to the crown prince
and whispered softly: "Drunk? Well.
I think not I didn't notice anything."

Dispensary Petitions.
Editor County Record: ?
Several neighbors told me yesterday
that a petition is being circulated
in this section to get signatures
aswing that an election he held in f
? ?-.f UA yl i c?nan_ I
V> I i 1 IfWIlSi 11(1 L'UUIll* I'll IIIC uiop.11- I
sary question again. Several of my J
informants said they signed the petition
somewhat carelessly and somewhat
under a wrong impression. In I
two or three instances theyiunder-;
stood from the presenter of the pe-;
tition that the election would he held
whether or not thev signed. Manv
I
of my informants say they are unalterably
opposed to dispensaries being
placed in our county and that
they are opposed to an election being
held.
Now, Mr Editor. I do not accuse
any one of wrongdoing, but I wish !
to call the attention of our j)eopleto
, the situation and ask them to con-;
, sider well before signing such peti;
tions. I would not, for a moment,
j be so presumptuous as to attempt to
: dictate to any one; but let us con!
sider a fact or two.
In the first place, we now have no ;
" * * llfllf I L mm l
dispensaries in vviuiamsuurg eouiuy
I and unless we have an election and
vote it in, we will not have any under
our present law.
Secondly, those of us who are op-1
posed to re-opening of dispensaries
'in our county should not sign any {
petition for an election. If we do j
hot want dispensaries why should we
! want an election? Again, suppose
1 the majority of our voters are now j
opposed; who knows but that, if an :
! election is held, the agitation conse-1
; quent may turn many to become in
j favor of dispensaries.
Many people seem to think that
because some will drink intoxicants ,
I and therefore their money goes to
I
other counties or to other States,
that it would be better to have the ,
; dispensary,so that our county would
get whatever profits there may be
| in the sale.
I Now, friends, 1 bend to my knees |
! and ask you to pardon a personal j
: experience. Twenty years ago your'
' humble writer was agent and operaj
tor in one of the towns of the State.
I was glad that I could keep my Bi- j
ble on my desk where were kept the
other books connected with my work.
The Bible taught me how to keep
the books and how to keep myself
straight. I soon became persuaded
that I should not work for a railroad
company any quicker than to work
on a farm on the Sabbath day. I resigned
my position. Many told me
then, and have said since, that some
one will keep that office and that I
might as well have kept it. That it
is not wrong to work on the Sabbath
for the reason that others will do the
same work on the Sabbath. But I
say because others steal or lie or
cheat, is no reason why I should do
these things. Because others drink
intoxicants is no reason I should
drink, or help to cause it to be sold
for others to drink. If I help to try
to keep it as far away and as unhandy
as possible, then I feel that I
am individually free from its evil
consequences.
So let us not say that we may as
well or better have intoxicants sold
! in our county, because others will
buy it elsewhere. Let us "keep our
i skirts clear,"for God holds us respon!
sible. But, however we may sign
i or vote, let us do so with the full
understanding of what effect the result
will be.
Before I close, let me say I am
not posing as any paragon of perfection.
I have faults and too many
of them, too. Johnsonville.

BLEASE DISREGARDS PRIMARY.
Won't Appoint Nominee For Auditor
of Georgetown.
Georgetown, April 17:?There are
some heartburnings in this county
because of the fact that Governor
Bleaseh^s failed to commission some
of the men, who, in the primary last
August, won the election and were
declared thr nominees by the county
executive committee, but the incumbents
of the offices at the time are
still holding over, in the absence of
the appointment of their successors.
Mr T S McConnel! opposed Mr J A
Hemingway for county Treasurer,
i'he face of the returns gave Mt Hemingway
79b votes as against 774 for
Mr AicConnell. Mr McDonnell entered
a protest alleging fraud at one of
the country boxes, and after a heated
contest the executive committee
threw out the box in question, giving
the contestant, Mr McConnell, a
majority, and declared him the successful
candidate. His commission
has not yet been received.
Mr W J Bruorton ran against
County Auditor H C Tallevast and in
the primary defeated him by a vote
of 799 to 761. There was no contest
in this case. Mr Bruorton has been
patiently awaiting the receipt of his
commission in order that ne mignt
enter upon the duties of the office.
Long patience bringing no reward,
Mr Bruorton addressed an inquiry to Governor
Blease, asking him the direct
question as to when he might
expect the appointment, to which
the following was the reply:
State of South Carolina
Executive Chamber
Columbia, S C, April 1, 1913.
MrW J Bruorton,Georgetown,SC.
? Dear Sir: In reply to your letter
of March 31, Governor Blease directs
me to say that, according to his information,
the present Auditor at
n - 1
ueorgeiown is niaKinK a very guuu
officer and the Governor sees no reason
to make a change.
Respectfully,
Jno K Aull,
Private Secretary.
Mr Bruorton feels very much aggrieved
at the action of the Governor
in this matter. He has made public
the upshot of the matter only
within the past few days.
