THE CITIZEN
South Carolina's Dispensary.
The decision of the South Carolina
Supreme Court that the dispensary liquor
law of that State is constitutional will
give Governor Tillman another oppor
tunity to tiy and enforce his peculiar
method of controlling the liquor traffic.
The original law as passed ia December,
1892. was declared unconstitutional last
April, but some months before this de
cision was rendered a new law had been
pasted nearly the same in terms, but still
a wholly distiuct measure- While this
latter law was not affected by the court s
action the attempt to enforce it was al
lowed to lapse and the dispensaries were
closed for three months. They were open
ed again August lon the order of Gov.
Tillman, with the expectation probably
that the Supreme Court, whose personnel
had undergone a change, would declare
the act constitutional.
This expectation has been realized, and
with the Supreme Court back of him Gov.
Tillman can make a second attempt to
show whether State control of the liquor
traffic can be made a success. The State
dispensary law of South Carolina has some
novel features about it which have never
been tried on an extensive scale outside ot
that neighborhood. According to its pro
visions a State board was formed whose
duty it was to purchase the liquors to be
sold in the State and to appoint county
dispensary boards. The latter boards on
petition authorized the opening of dispen
saries for the sale of liquors by retail
under very strict regulations. All liquors
must be sold iu sealed bottles, none can
be-drunk on the premises, only a fixed
quanity ;an be sold to any one person and
the dwpensaries can be kept open during
the day time only. The State Dispensary
Board sold the liquors to the county boards
in sealed packages, and these in turn sold
it to the dispensary keepers, all liquors be
ing of the best proved quality. All other
sales were declared illegal.
The law, while differing in some re
spects from the Gothenburg system, is
in spirit the same. It is more complicated
and keeps the traffic more strictly under
the control of the State. The law went
into force July 1, 1893, and alter 4 months
the profits were found to be $52,483.93, ol
which $12,126 43 went to the counties. On
February 1, 1894, after seven months, the
profits were estimated at $99,337.16. Dur
ing the first quarter 96,747 gallons ot li
quor were purchased and 68,987 gallons
were sold. Early in April came the riot
ing in Darlington and Florence and the
attempt to prevent the enforcement of the
law. Before this excitement had lullv
subsided the Supreme Court rendered its
decision declaring the old law void and
matters were Lrought to a standstill.
Governor Tillman retained the stock of
liquors on hand, but no futher reports
of the operation of the law have been
made.

—lt is astonishing what some women
will endure to obtain physicial beauty.
The prayer and the ambition of the aver
age wornau is to be beautiful. But few of
them care much for that more enduring
aud attractive beauty, a cultured mind
anu a sweet disposition. A few days ago
in Chicago a young lady died in the oper
ating chair while being treated by two
quack female doctors. They were operat
ing upon her face with an electric noodle,
to remove blemishes, and usiug cocaine
to kill the pain. They used too mucK aud
their patient died in the chair. A doctor
was called in, and an old lady who was
there waiting her turn, a»ked him if he
thought she could stand it. '"I am strong'
she said, "and I want these wrinkles re
moved from my face." There was a lady
more than fifty years of age, who was will
ing to risk her life to get rid of her wrink
les. The same intensity of desire to be
intellectually brilliant and amiable would
soon enable the female sex to surpass their
brothers in mental attainments. Physical
beauty is all right, to be sure, and it is
worth striving for in a rational way, by
observing the laws of nature and the or
dinary rules of health, but it is not worth
dying for.
