Tie King of Carolina.

Years ago when South Carolina went out
Of the union, and for weeks was alone in the
secession movement, she was hailed as THE
Republic of South Carolina" She was a
glorious commonwealth then. She Is an
unconstitutional monarchy now, and has a
king. and his lame is Tillmen.
During the recent session of the legisla-
ture. King Tillman named the bills that
should be passed and those that should be
defeated. His orders were obeyed i'm
plicitly. He spoke through his heutenants,
who occupied places on the floor of the
House, and bis followers were as obedient
as are the soldiers of a well-disciplined
army.
There were few Carolinians of the old
school in the legislature. and they OF course,
refused to pay any attention to orders
emanating from the Office of the executive.
They were sas upon emphatically and made
to realize how powerless they were.
It is alleged that when committees refused
to report bills In accordance with King Till
mans wishes they were SO reconstructed
that they readily complied with his wishes.
The rule Of King Tillman will eventually
prove as disastrous to the people of South
Carolina as was that Of the blacks and
carpet-baggers. II a change does not soon
take place the state will again pass into the
control of the blacks, there to remain until
another generation shall have suffered for
the sins Of their fathers.

Patent office experts express the opinion
that the Bell Telephone Company will con-
tiuue to enjoy virtual monopoly of the tel
ephone business, even If the company is soon
to lie deprived Of the prote ction of its main
patents. The completes plants and estab-
lished business that the company has in
every city will enable it to crush ous COM
petition. At the same time, IL such laws as
one proposed in the Tennessee legislature,
TO fix the maximum price TO be charged per
year for a telephone at about one>fourth Of
the present rate, should become common,
the trust would not have the power to grind
customers, even after 1t had weeded out
opposition.

The Quarantine Bills.

The country is not to have a national
quarantine. IL is by no means certain yet
that this congress will pass any quarantine
bill. A few days ago the Senate passed a
quarantine bill and sent 1t to the House.
1t did not provide for national quaran-
tine and is not what the country needs
The Houe did not pass it. That body, on
Monday, passed a quarantine bill of its own.
It virtually took no notice whatever Of the
Senate bill, and its bill is not as national in
its character as that bill. 1t leaves the
states and municipalities in full pos
session Of their respective ports, but
provides that the national government
may step in and establish quarantine
wherever the states have neglected to do so,
whenever such quarantine may be regarded
as necessary.
The Senate bill, owing 10 bad parlia-
mentary tactics, is so tied up in the House
that there is no probability of vote being
taken upon IL, and there is pretty fair
prospect that the Senate will not pass the
House bill. II looks. therefore, as if there
would be no quarantine law passed at all.
The chief opponents TO a national quar-.
auUue Jaw are view Ork ana New Or
leans. Their representatives in congress
pretend that they would feel safer under a
state than a national quarantine. 1t IL
intimated, however, that the position of
quarantine officer at New York is too big a
political plum to he lost by giving the gov
ernment exclusive control of quarantine
What the country needs is a national
quarantine. A double quarantine cannot
be made effective. The state and federal
health authorities cannot work together in
harmony. Experience shows they cannot.
They came in collision in New York hsrbor
last summer, during the cholera scare, and
they had a bitter war of words 10 the news
papers.
The selfisbness OF comparatively few
men prevents a national quarantine-the
only quarantine that can be made effective
throughout the country. 1t was supposed
that congress was great enough to legislate
in accordance with the best interests of the
whole country, but it seems this was a
mistake. II will require q widespread
epidemic TO force congress to give the
country such quarantine legislation as will
protect every part of it agains. the intro
duclion end spread OF infectious and con-
tagious diseases.

The prospects are good for another issue
of worlds fair souvenir coins, to be dis
pensed to the public at fancy prices.

Mrs. Potter Palmer, president of the worn-
EMS department Of the fair, was before
the Senate subcommittee on app-oprla-
tons in advocacy of the additional 500, 0G0
desired for the board OF lady managers she
suggested that $4,000 of the sum be given
10 souvenir coins, and the suggestion appar-
emily met with the favor OF the commit
tee. 1t is the intention to have the coins of
che value of 25 cents each, making 10000
quarters. They will bear upon one side
the head Of Queen Isabella OF Spain, on the
other picture Of the woman's building at
the fair, and will be known as the isabella
coin" The price will probably be not less
than 81 each; more il the ladies conclude
that the revenue raised at that rate OF
taxation upon curiosity hunters is not large
enough.
