The New York Chamber of Com
merce proposes to give a dinner to
President Cleveland upon his retire
ment from Office, to show their appre-
citation of his services to their busl-
ness interests. The compliment is
deserved, for no man ever filled the
Presidential chair that labored more
faithfully and zealously for New
York's business interests. And as
soon as be finishes picking bis teeth
after the New York dinner, he should
be wined and dined across the waite,
bv the bankers of London, whose
business interests be also faithfully
and zealously labored for. The
masses OF the people will not give Mr.
Cleveland a dinner to show their ap'
probation for him, but they vii
quietly rejoice that he is out, just the
same.

The Legislature has pass-a In
to require railroads 10 carry bicycles
as baggage for passengers. This is
very good for the wheelmen, because
it saves them some money, but we
doubt the justice Of the law. If a
bicycle rider is to have the privilege
of carrying his wheel on the train
without charge, then why not go fur
ther and permit lady to carry her
sewing machine or piano, or allow a
farmer to take his horse and wagon.
The railroads should be treated fairly.

We venture the assertion, that be-
fore Governor Ellerbe has finished
his term OF Office he will want COM
mittee of investigation to ascertain
the interest certain men sc taking
in Dispensary matters. lis COM
mittee should not be made up OF
members of the Legislature, but from
his contingent fund. About three OF
Pinkertou's finest would furnish re-
port which would either wipe out al!
suspicion or put into the penitenti-
sry some very conspicuous characters.

We received letter from Char
lesion business man commencing our
editorial in THE TINES OF last week
about the State Board of Control not
patronizing home industries, and his
letter urges US not to cease until our
home industries are given fair treat
ment. There is no doubt about it,
the Germania Brewing Company has
piles Of money invested n the city Of
Charleston and to keep their plant in
operation they necessarily give en-
ployment to great many people, all
oi whom are taxpayers of the State
of South Carolina. Now the State
has taken charge ola traffic, ard we
believe BY doing so it has done a
great deal towards arresting the evils
of liquor drinking, but it has also
crippled one OF its largest manufac
turing industries When the Dlspen-
sary law was first enacted we under
stood that the home breweries and
distilleries were to have the prefer
ence against all others, but this has
not been carried out. The Charles
ton brewery has sold very little goods
- oA-r------.' 20
drinkers testify that the Georgia
beer is unfit to drink and is getting
worse at every shipment. We hope
with the newly organized board a
different state of affairs will exist and
goods will be handled for the merit
they have. If the board continues
discriminating against the home man
ufacturers it vii! give color to the
suspicion that there is secret some
where, which will not bear turning
the light on. we want the State to
give encouragement to every IN
dustry within her borders.

Ottumwa, Ia, Murch 25.-Fiye. chill
tren Of Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Penrod at
Iladdslale, little mining town on the
Wapelio and Davis county line, We're
burned TO death Tuesday night. Three
were crematcd and two died few hours
later. They are: Harry Penrod, aged
ten years; John Penrod, aged eight
years; Minerva 1'enrod, aged six years;
Ross Penrod, aged four years; Blaine
Penrod, aged three years. The parents
of the children took the oldest child Of
the family, a son aged 10, and baby
IN the arms OF its mother, and went to a
religious meeting, having first put the
other five children to bed. The school,
house where the services were held, was
only 100 feet away from the Penrod
house. About nineao clock an alarm of
fire: was given and Penrod, with the
other occupants of the schoolhouse,
rushed out to find his house in flames.
It was impossible to enter the building
as it was crumbling when Penrod
reachedeit. The children's bed was by
the window, however, and Penrod:bnrst
the window open and succeeded in pull
Ing the eight and four-ycar-old boys
out, horribly burning himself in the
act. The two never 1egained conscious
ness, however, and died in 4 short time.
The others were burned until only a
few bones were found in the. debris of
the house. The coroner's inquest threw
no light on the origin Of the FIRE.

and maintain what will be the most
magnificent driveway in the world, by

There is bill pending before the legis-
lature Of Wisconsin providing for the;
construction of the drive from Milwau-
kee to the state line, and while the dis
