The people are showing an inclination to stand by the law, and they are also showing more of a disgust for the sort of dangerous liquor that is the product of present days. Both the officers are satisfied that law and order is given commendable recognition in the Sandhills, and that the use of liquor is becoming decidedly less conspicuous, and that the high ways are becoming safer and that the general action of the tr?.velers. local and through drivers both, is en tirely in the right direction.
