STATE BONO CAN- i
VASSERS DEADLOCKED
r
ON WILLIAMSBURG DISPENSARY
APPEAL?HOW THEY VOTED
BLEASE'S COMMENT.
Columbia, September 11: ? The
^ State board of canvassers, after a
_ long and rather heated met?ting this
morning, deadJocked on the appeal
from the Williamsburg county board
of canvassers and adjourned sine die
without breaking the deadlock. Under
decisions of the supreme court
in such cases the action of the Williamsburg
county board in declaring
the advocates of the establishment
of the dispensary had won, the elec?
tion stands and the county will take
its place in the ranks of the "wets."
It was said here this morning that
the prohibitionists will appeal to the
supreme court.
After an all-day session yesterday
the State board of canvassers went
irito executive session last night and
decided to throw out the election in
Sumter, thus giving the prohibitionists
that county. They affirmed the
decision of the Lexington county
board in declaring the dispensary
?J
winner mere anu uieu ucu na>u
k an i fast, 3 to 3, on the appeal from
the action of the Williamsburg board
in declaring the dispensary victor
there. A recess was taken until
10:30 this morning and after more
speech-making and a somewhat
heated discussion the vote,3 to 3, remained
unchanged and the matter
was left deadlocked,being, however,
a victory for the dispensary forces.
It is understood that Secretary of
State McCown, State Treasurer Carter
and Attorney General Peeples
voted to approve the Williamsburg
* ?' /^icnnncQrv
Doaru ui uecieumg l,,c
victor, while Comptroller General
Jcnes, Adjutant General Moore and
Chairman Stanley,of the House committee
on privileges and eleetions,
voted to Reverse the Williamsburg
board and declare the county "dry".
It is expected that the contests
from each of the three counties will
be taken to the supreme conrt on
appeal from the action of the State
board.

Commenting on the recent elections
for the re-establishment of dispensaries,
Governor Blease said:
"I have nothing to do with the
State board of canvassers, and I am
really not interested in what they
have decided or what -they will decide.
Lexington was a Blease county,
and as a majority of her white
people want the dispensary I would
be glad to see them have it. Williamsburg
was very close and I
would be pleased to see it go also
in the dispensary column. So far
' as Sumter is concerned, like Orange
burg, I would like to see her stay
dry.
"The surrounding counties to her
?at least Richland, which has a majority
for Blease?will be very glad
to furnish her citizens their liquor,
and get the benefit of the money for
good roads and good schools. So I
am really not worried as to Sumter's
outcome. I think all those counties
had good,first-class election commissioners,
and that what they did they
did conscientiously, and as Governor
I shall sustain their actions, regardless
of what may be the opinion of
the prohibitionists or anybody else."

Ooo't Let Baby Suffer with Eczema and
Skin Eruptions.
Babies need a perfect skin-covering.
Skin eruptions cause them not
only intense suffering, but hinder
their growth. DrHobson's Eczema
Ointment can be relied on for relief
and permanent cure of suffering babies
whose skin eruptions have made
their life miserable. "Our baby was
afflicted with breaking out of the
skin all over the face and scalp.
Doctors and skin specialists failed to
help. We tried Dr Hobson's Eczema
Ointment and were overjoyed to see
iaby completely cured before one
>ox was used," writes Mrs Strubler,
