Many Bills Have Been Disposed of?Dispensary Bills Have Been Pat off Until all Parties are Ready far a Vigorous Fight. The Legislate vfc has been hard at work over since -the "second day of its session. Many hills have been disposed of generally of local interest. Several bills have been introduced. The oil inspection bill and the bill to prohibit and prevent the establishment and operating of what is known as bucket shops, where future contracts in cotton, grain, i i -i- ..-ii. i "ihwh, win, cic., are uougui aim sold in these sliops. The reason for the abolishment of these shops is that they are regarded as a speI eies of gambling. The joint resolution giving to the dispensary invesj ligation eonnnittee Ml ore power to eompel the attendance of witnesses and require the produetion of certain written documents, considered by the eonnnittee a* necessary for the enlightenment of the eonnnittee in their investigation was agreed upon. The committee was not required to observe the rules of evidence as those laid down for the . examination of witnesses in the eourts of the State. No time was: made mandatory upon the committee in which they be required to file their report with the Legislature. There are a number of hills that have been prepared by both sides of the dispensary question, hut the I real tight has come. We publish in another column of The Times the hill prepared by Mr. L. J. Jlrown- j ing. The idea seems to be for tho j opponents of the dispensary system to get together and agree upon one bill. Only a few bills have had n second reading in the house. The days for the several elections has not been fixed. The probability is that none of the elections will be had before next week. We publish in another column of Tin: Timks a full list of all the elections to bo held by the legislature during this session. The hills first considered , by the legislature were those carried over from last session, among the most important of which is the compulsory education and the industrial school and reformatory fm youthful criminals. A very goo< bill passed by the house l to have a board composed ot tlmx W live rn?n who in ewjy ??: a pardon for a convict is aakwMt alUL. civ vile &OvmYor slinT also relieve him of a great responsibility. A bill was passed by the house and 1 sent to the senate appropriating j S'J,000 per year to the Confederate t home college for scholarships. AC hill to rcenact the old game law, ' j, making it a penalty to sell certain . I ;umc or kill at certain seasons. A o jootl bill was introduced providing or certain text books in schools, lso a bill to increase the power and jj urisdiction of magistrates. Many tlicr bills have been introduced. ? lie legislature is busy and seems' > be putting olY the dispensary' ills light until all parties are ready ' thJ, r a vigorous light. ?f??

Candidates for Various Positions are in Evidence and Wires are Being Polled. More elections will be held this year by the general assembly than usual. There are vacancies occurring in six of the judicial circuits and the chief justice of the supreme court is to be elected. Of course much interest will centre in the election of the three dispensary directors, and the State dispensary commissioner. The State librarian is also to be elected. There are two vacancies on the board of penitentiary directors. New members must be elected 011 the boards of trustees of South Carolina college, Clcmson, Winthrop, the Citadel and the State colored college at Orangeburg. Chief Justice Y. J. Pope's term expires this year and a successor must be chosen to serve eight years. Justice Pope is tilling an unexpired term. The judges of the circuit courts whose terms expire and their "respective circuits arc: C. G. Dantzler, first; James Aldrich, second; It. O. Purdy, third; It. C. Watts, fouth; G. W. Gage, sixth, and J. C. Klugh, eighth. These judges servo ior lour years each. A Tragic Finish. A wateliraan's neglect permitted a leak in the great North Qeadyke. which a child's finger could have stopped, to become a ruinous break, devastating an entire province of Holland. In like manner, Kenneth Mclver, of Vanceboro, Me., permitted a little eold to go unnoticed until a tragic finish was only averted by Dr. King's New Discovery. He writes: "Three doctors gave me up to die of lung inhumation caused by a neglected cold; but Dr King's New Discovery saved my life " Guaranteed best cough and cold cure, at Duke Drug Uo. 50c and $1.00.
