In a discussion of the dispensary questiou
with Chief Constable Howie, of
Charleston one day this week, Governor 01
Heyward made it perfectly plain that
the dispensary law must be strictly enforced
in Charleston as well as every- rn
where else in the State. Gov. Ileyward
is a friend of Charleston, but we don't jt]
think he is the man to allow this friendly re
feeling for the city tocauss him to quietly
wink at the flagrant violation of the M
dispensary law for which Charleston has
become notorious, aud Columbia is not a
far behind. Heyward is under no obli- ar
gation to anybody and we trust he will
stand flat-footed for the enforcement o; at
1 the laws as he finds them on the sta'.- ui
utes. ?c

for the purpose of establishing hii electrical
power plant, has passed both
houses and work will b gia ou the mam
moth dam as soon ns the company cj.u
organ :sw and let the eo ilrtct.
Col. T. C. Duncan ii at the head of
this grand enteipi ist: and wi.l push it
forward from the j imp. Souie time ago
he sent li s suiveyor to Neal Shoals to
tike in the situation with tlbs o! j.-ct in
view. As he is not in the habit of going
off liilf Cocked, li: wish d to get the
matter before him 111 detail. Having
done this he was soon convinctd that
there was an opening for the biggest mterprise
ever uidtilakcnin Union, the
establishment of a mammoth electrical
power plant at which sufficient electric
power could bo geuerated to furnish
every industry in Union and surrounding
towns with electric power from the
smallest c mcern to the largest manufacturing
industry. No sooner was this decided
than he went to work to put the
matter in shape by applying for a charter
for a coiporatim known as the Union
Manufacturing and Power Company,
then a bill was introduced asking the
right to darn Broad river at Neal Shoals.
Everything is now iu shape to move
ahead with thn grand work.
"VVhen we stop to contemplate what it
mpjJ}gJCLi)lidle such a stream as Broad
river and f^TNc4^'uaD,a biddi"*
the advantages to be deri ^mo?L
incalculable. Electric power enough
can be generated by this grand stream to
run every iudmtry in Union and surrounding
towns that are now iu operation
or will be for the next half centuiy.
The fuct that the company has secured
the right to back water for twelve iniKs
up the river, gives them the privilege of
rxtendiag the dam frem hill to hill, per
milting tin; installation of an electric
power plant somewhat similar to that of
Niagara and making of Neal Shoals the
Niagara of the South. This will give
a be&htifnl lake 12 miles long from onehalf
to one mil* wide, which would te
a gieat opening for pleasure boats, such
as steam launches, sail boats, etc., a great
place for picnicking and pleasuie parties.
The lake will no doubt be stocked with
Qsh of every kiad to tempt those who
wish to fish.
The plant will probably develop 10,000
horse power, and will furnish power to
Union mills and all other industries that
wish to use it and save expense, as the
the current will be much cheaper than
coal. Other minor industries too small
to put in a first class power plant will be
glad to avail themselves of this power. v
It is contemplated to run the trolley
line which has been talked of jor a year
of more with this power. The cars will
run from Buffalo via the Union Mills,
through town, via the Excelsior, Aetna
and Monarch Mills, thence to Neal
Shoals. It is expected that woik on this
line will begin this aummer. Tim will
bo a great boom to the citi/ius and Finnish
lliem much pleasure. The line
will no doubt be a paying investment.
The building of this mammoth dam
aud the establishment of the great ele< trie
power plant will overshadow anjtliing
ever attempted in this patt of the
country.
Neal shoals is som8 twelve miles from
Union, about the same distance from
Lock hart, five miles from Carli.de and
about sixteen tnil.-s from Chester.
The capital stick of the company has
r.Qt. yet teeu fixed, as it was necessary to
get the bill granting permission to builil
the dam acrts-i the livtr through the legislature
before any thing d? finite could le
Jone. The capital ^ ill be forlhcomii g
when the amount is fixed.
