We took occasion 10 feel the sentiment Of
the people last week duriug the court on
the constitutional convention question and
we found an almost unanimous sentiment
for the convention. Among those we ques-
toned were number Of Conservatives,
and to our surprise, these, too, were in fa-
vor Of the convention. One Of the number
said that change of the constitution was
one of the promises of the party as far back
as 1876. and it is high time the promise
was carried out. It can be safely said that
Clarendon will vote ''Yes."

Very few now express any opposition to
the lispensary law. and the constaoles are
not interfered with in their raids. con-
stable now creates no more excitement than
any revenue officer would. It has been
suggested that the cause of this quietly sub
hitting to the law is that the lawyers have
omit championing the whiskey men be-
cause the whiskey men would not pay the
lawyers. Wonder if 1t is possible that the
real cause Of all the devilry raised IN this
Stote about the dispensary law is because
the whiskey lawyers were at the bottom OF
it, and stirred up all this strife so as to
make fees thereby?

Treasurer Copss. OF Orangeburg was bru-
tally assassinated last Saturday by being
shot from ambush while on his return from
collecting tour. The murderers carried
of his satchel containing only q small sum
of money, principally silver, and left the
body with over $500 in the left hand pants
pocket. Upon hearing Of the tragedy, Gov
ernor Tillman ordered blood-hounds to the
scene of the murder by special train.
The dogs immedisteiy OF their arrival got
on the track and pursued it to the edge OF
the river where it is supposed the villains
got in boat. Searching parties went IN
every direction and now three young white
men of the town of Orangeburg are sus-
pected of the crime If the guilty parties
are caught it is doubtful if court will ever
be troubled with them.
