The South Carolina Legislature, when

the dispensary question without the aid
of the United States Supreme Court
Attorney General Barber has received
a telegram stating that the court had
set the time for the hearing of th
Vandercook and other dispensary cases
March 7.
This was a erievous diaannointmAnl
to Mr. Barber as it will be to the mem
bers of tho legislature who had fcniWI
that the court would decide one way or
the other as to the merits of the case so
that proper legislation could be taken
thereon.
In view of the general agreement
among counsel and the rjerson&l re
quest of J udge Simonton that the court
advance the case, it was confidently
believed that the learned r.onrt wnnlrl
do SO.
About the onlv thin? the TflorislfttnrA
can do is to pass prohibition or re en-,
act the dispensary law with some mod
ifications and await the decision which
may not come until late next summer.
in the meantime the original Dackncre
stores will have a picnic unless the
Legislature attempts to jut a high li
cense on them, and in that case
more litigation may be expected.
The following is the paper the at
torney general submitted to the court
asking that the case be advanced and
an early decision rendered.
These two cases involve substantially
the same questions, and by agreement
of counsel the court is asked to hear
them together. Both grow out of the
same transaction. The issue is the
validity of so much of a certain act of
the general assembly of South Carolina,
commonly known as tho dispensary
law, as prohibits non-resident manu
facturers and dealers from importing
into.tho State of South Carolina spirit
uous and intoxicating liquors, the' pro
duct of other States and foreign
countries, and storing and sell
ing the same within the said State in
original packages " by or through
agents appointed for such purpose.
These suits are brought against officers
of the State in consequence of the seiz
ure by them pursuant to said act of cer
tain liquors shipped into the State for
sale, and it is of great public import
ance that the question bo determined
by this honorable court as speedily as
it ispracticable.

Fall Biver, Mass. (Special). Every
body is waiting for the presentation of
the new schedule of wages which the
mill men's committee has been given
authority to put into eflect. The gen
eral belief is that the cut-down will be
about 11 per cent, though this cannot
be definitely stated. Business men
complain that the decision of the mill
men will have a baneful eflect on tho
holiday trade. A cut-down of 11 per
cent, would mean a reduction of about
$20,000 a week to tho operators in this
city.
Matthew Hart, secretary of the
Weavers Union, at New Dedford,
Etated that the conditions iu this city
are so different that a cut would not bo
likely to occur here.
"In New Bedford," said Mr. Hart,
"there is such a varieiy of eroods that
it is impossible to establish anv stand
ard of wages. "
He believes that a shut-down in Fall
Biver ought to be agreed upon, as the
contemplated reduction in wages will
simply mean a cheaper production of
goods, and the mills will keep on piling
up a big production at full speed to be
sold at cheaper pnce3.
"Ihe market will still bo overstock
ed, he continued, "and when the
manufacturers trv to restore nriees in
the market they will have a hard fight
with the jobbers, while the emnloves
-" 1 1 1 T ... - -
win navo to ngnt the manulacturers to
get their wasres restored."
Although Boston is the center of the
cotton mill business of New Enrrland.
the men connected with the trade would
have little to sav concerning the action
of the Fall Biver manufacturers its vot
ing to reduce wasres besinnincr Jan. 1.
The treasurer of one of the It all Biver
. Ml .... .
mins, wno was willing to discuss the
matter at some length, said he regard
ed this cut as tho beginning of a serious
time, not only for the Fall Biver print
mills, but for all the cotton mills, hnth
there and throughout the State and to
r a certain extent throughout Now F.n
Smith was in the J land. The kev to the whole situation.
he said, is the relative cheapness of
bouthern labor, which could not bo
better shown than by the fact that it
costs a mill in Georgia or North Caro
lina 3 cents to produce a pound of
material and in .ew Eucland. C cents
With this fact in mind, it is evident
that the cut of 10 per cent, is not going
to help matters much and the only
thing that will do any good at present
w in De a radical cut of, sai-, 20 to 25
percent. This would inevitably bring
a strike. With a cut of 10 or 11 per cent
he says, there would bo little likelihood
of a Btrike, as the operatives are well
acquainted with the conditions and
know that a reduction of somo kind in
necessary. Eveu this would still leave
a difference of about 2i per cent, in the
cost of labor in favor of the Southers
mills too great a difference to strugglo
against successfully.
In the first place, says this treasurer,
the Southern mills have natural advan
tage; they have cheaper cotton acJ
less burdensome taxation. Some of the
big mills in Fall Biver, for instance,
have a yearly payment of $10,000, $1V
000 and even S20,000 in taxes to i.aLe,
whereas in Georgia and North Ca.o
iina the mills are in many instances ex
empted from taxation for ten or twelve
years. It is in labor, however, that the
great difference lies. According to the
official quotations, labor in tho South
is as good as it is here, aud taken as a
wholo is about per cent cheaper.
Another great advantage the Southern
mills have is in not being hampered by
legislation. In Massachusetts the hours
of laborers are limited to C8 a week,
while in tho South they aro unlimited.

son, and the law requires her to obey
their orders. Japan is the only other
country on earth that pretends to bo

are so restricted. When a womau

passes into the ownership of her hus
band forever. He has the legal right
to use or dispose of It in any manner
ho chooses regardless of her wishes or
protests. If they are divorced the
property remains with him. When she
assents to the marriage vow she for
feits independence and confers upon
him absolute Jurisdiction over her
inlud, body and estate. He can compel
her to work or do anything else that Is
lawful for women to do, and she has
no relief or protection except In public
opinion. Some of the American heir

sorrow, and others who may have an
opportunity to assist In supporting the
German army and restoring ancestral
estates should look Into the matter

Suits the Tailor.
Felix Faure's tailors made a good
tiling out of the St. Petersburg visit.
It rainod every hour of the President's
stay in Ru?s!a, and consequently li!
eight dress suits and twelve eilk hats
were n'.l ruined. When the recoil ion
nt Dunkirk was given M. Fnure on his
return home he had to wear a "pressed
.suit," but that did not so much matter.
for there again It also rained In tor
rents. As he always Is the pink of ele
gance, this continued annoyance must
have bt'cn as hard to bear ns for some
iioe lady out in a downpour, minus au
umbrella and no uioner for a cab.

Ilcvlval or Old Jewelry.
The old style Jewelry Is coming Into
fashion again. Women nre haunting
the old curio shops, trying to find the
beautiful old cameos like those worn
by their mothers and grandmothers
years ago. The old-fashioned settlnsr
Is rarely changed, the quaintly carved
aud twisted gold being considered ex
tremely beautiful, Tho old broochci
and rings are especially sought for,
aud bring remarkable prices when
found.
The man who whistles seldom
swears; it is the people who are com
pelled to listen to blui that do tho
swearing.

on the way home from the races.
Town Topics.
Doctor If you must know, ma'am,
your husband won't live twenty-four
hours longer. "Goodness gracious!"
ejaculated the broken-hearted but
economical woman, "and here you've
gone and prescribed medicin enough
for five days." Tit-Bits.
Cultivation Implies something to cul
tivate. Wre plant the seed in favor
able soil if we would reap a harvest.
We train the muscle that already has
some strength if we would make iin
athlete. We foster an aptitude for using
tools if we would make a good mechan
ic. In like manner, If we would culti
vate the moral nature, we must seek
for the be3t Instincts that are already
active, and nourish and develop them.
