We considered tba fact tbat tbe grand jury bas oot feuod a "true bill" agalost Mr Bar? rett as seems to be contemplated In Section 22, Article IV, of tbe Constitution of 189 >. as tbe basis of action io such cases, which section is as follows : "Whenever it sball be brought to ibe notice of tbe governor by affidavit Iba: ao officer who has tbe custody of public or trust funds is probably guilty of embizslemeot or tbe appropriation of public or trust funds to private use, then tbe gover? nor sball direct his immediate prosecution by tbe proper officer, aod upoo true bill found the governor sball suspend such officer aod appoint io bis stead, uotil be shall bave beea acquitted by the verdict of a jary., Io case of coovictioo the office sball be declared vacaot aod tbe vacancy filled as may be pro vided by law.

Proceedings of County Board of Commissioners The County Board of Commissioners met yesterday witb Supervisor Dorn and Com mtssiobers, Jenkins, McLfod, Scarborough, McNeill and Rhodes r resent. Action on the proposed road in Bishopville township was postponed until the neit meeting so aa to give Mr Rodders an oppor? tunity to appear before the Board and state his objections Messrs. Aliamont Mosrs, R. D. Lee and R. I. Manning, a committee frem tbe Business League, presented petitions for opening a road across Black River rom the McBride place to tbe Plowdeo Mill road, and also filed ao aiiBigoment of right of way for said road. The committee suggested tbe appointment of a Bp :cial committee from tbe County Board to ascertain the cost of opening tbe road and tbe best route. Mr. R. 0. McFaddin e/as present and made various objections to tbe road, aod asked tbe board to make baste slowly. He said that parties in Concord are opposed to the road and coold get up a counter petition against opening it. Tbe board considered tbe petition and on motion a committee, consisting of commis? sioners Rhodes, McNeill and Scarborough, was appointed to make tbe required investi? gate 3 as to tbe location of the road and the cost of tbe same ; also to employ a surveyor to make estimate and fiod the best route. Msj. H. F. Wilson presented a petition from many citizens, asking that tbe salary of L E White, overseer of the chain gang be raised to $50 a month. Mr R. I.

Hughsun k Co. Licenses for Belling Malt. Retail dealers are nonplused br a notice that has just been received from Collector Webster caning on them for tbe payment of a back license for dealing in malt. Tbe no? tice reads that $60 must be paid, which is tbe license aod penalty for two years, coding June 30, 1900. Tbe drug men did not koow tbey were liable for a license, much less pen? alty, aod several attorneys have been secured to look into tbe case Tbe licence, judging from tbe con ten is of tbe notice, is $20 a year und tbe penalty is $10, making a total of $60 for tbe two years. The druggists tbiok that tbe law is a oew ooe, only two years old, of which tbey bars never beeo notified, or oth? erwise the bill would have beeo much larger. Tbe notice states that tbe $60 is due from Mr. Blank, "retail dealer io malt liquor." Tbe druggists claim that tbey ere not retail dealers io malt liquors, but handle malt as a medicine, not as a beverage Ooe of tbe druggists made tbis poiot io a letter to Mr. Webstea. and that gentleman replied that, soch oeiBg tbe case, he bad oo doubt tbe mooey i would be refunded Tbe druggists, knowing tbe slowoess wiib which Uncle Sam reimburses people for overcharges nod mis? takes, are lo*th to pay at all. One of tbe Charleston druggists said yesterday : ? "Why, we don't sell malt as a beverage. I dare say a bottle of it was never sold aod drank io a drug store It is usually sold to invalids, mothers and people wbo bave become ruo down through worry or over? work. It is true that there is alcohol io malt, but if you take alcohol dway from tbe drag business you destroy it entirely. Everything we have contains alcohol io some degree to preserve it " ?
