LegISIatiyo Notes.

During the campaign the Tillman news
papers told the people that the low price of
State bonds was not caused by tho political
agitation aud Governor Tillman's uttcra,,-
ces aud methods, but was the natural effect
or the approaching maturity of the debt.
NOW pay day is nearer than it was then,
but the bonds are up and selling Mt q cred.
liable figure Why? Because the Gov
ernorS more recent utterances and tho
course OF legislation have restored the con-
fidence Of the public in the honesty of our
people. 1t isgratifyng to see how COM
Portable we arc pulling through our troub-
les and steering clear Of threatened dam
gers.
After the legislature adjeurns think we
may look with confidence for q renewal of
activity in developing our resources and
establishing enterprises. Pesplc are reach
ing tho conclusion that we arc not so badly
hurt after all and that there is no good rcS.

or fcr anybody to go into two years
trance Of despair.
| am more than ever satisfied that no
prohbition or regulation bill will go through
this session There arc now only twelve
working days, and no matter how earnest
a majority in each house might hc in sup-
port OF the Roper bill it would hardly be
possible to drive such MI unwieldly and
complicated measure through committees
ard the two houses in that time. As be-
fore remarked, the Roper bill is not pro-
hlbltlon bill at all. 1t simply gives an
elaborate system for selling liquor under
direct control Of the State for scientific.
medicinal, mechanical and sacramcntal
purposes. Those limitations are no limlta-
lions at all. Men who crave liquor get it
even when they are now penniless and in
communities with iron clad prohibition
laws. 1t would he a mighty poor drunk
ara who could not find mechanical, scicn-
tho or medical pretc1ts for bnying liuuor
when he wanted it. We may talk as we
IKE, but everybody with common sense
knows that there is hardly county in the
S:ate IN which more than one or two bar
iels Of liquor would be sold in q year strict
iy for such purposes. The dcmand, if
honestly limited to the purposes expressed
in this law, wonld not justify any man in
the trouble and expense of obtaining q per
NIT. The permits would generally 90 to
men who would take them for tho purpose
OF violating the law. The only results of
the Roper bill would be to help make per
jury and fraud more gcnclal and respccta-
bic, TO create liquor selling monopoles in
some counties and to throw the trade wide

Senator llcmphill, Of Abbevillc, has in
troduced in the Legislature bill to allow
women TO vote and to hold office in this
state. Wouldn't it be funny to see our
wives elbcwing their way through crowd
on election day to get to the polls to vote.
And how Rtrangc it would seem for them
to tell us to stay at homo and mind the
children while they went to vote. Then,
too, it would be amusing to see woman
acting Sheriff. Is there one in the State
that would have nerve enough to knock
tho trigger from under q man on the gal

From the best authority on the cotton
situation we learn that the crop fer this
year is about $500, 600 bales, and it will
not exceed this amount. At the beginning
of this year there Nas a surplus on hand Of
$50, GOO bales ard this will he converted
into deficit Of los, 900 bales Yet it is
claimed that the price viii not increase
m'y. We cannot but believe in the face of
this authority that cotton will so up.
With favorable season next year we will
produce tremendous crop and VIC predict
that cotton next fall will be worth five
cents a pound.

took a day off Wednesday and in a
very kind and clever way endeavor-
ed to teach the editor of the LEDGER
something about finance. Our con-
temporary seems to be very sorry
that we cannot Comprehend such
matters. We are sorry his lesson,
which was intended to prove that
the Legislature could not afford to
make an appropriation for the Uni
versIty, was without any result and
that we can Comprehend" this
matter as he does. What is more,
we do not want to Comprehend
it the way he does because we would
then be wrong. We are under obi
cations to him, nevertheless, anc
when he opens school again vii
surely attend, and really regret tha
we are such dull pupil. Becaus.
we are not SO smart, perhaps, as ou
worthy contemporary is not ou
fault. The Lord won't make NOR,
than one man to a town who know,
everything about everything. As al
OF us are not born so wise as ou
brother editor, We still have need 0
Universities.
