The supreme court has decided
that the Legislature had no right
to cut down the Sheriffs fees in
Spartanburg county. A. the act
OF 1896 was locsI and special and
therefore WAS prohibited by the
constitution. We consider this
one OF the most far reaching de-
cisions that has been recently reu>
dered. The decision that Sin order
that law may he general il must
bs of force ia every county of the
State will hayo tendency to
prevent tho multiplicity OF bulls
that are introduced at every sea
sion of the Legislature making
the law IN each county different
from every other county and
sometimes in very important
matters local legislation has been
the curse of South Carolina for
many years snd we rejoice that
the test has been made which
proves that these acts are uncon-
stitutional. --Spartanburg Herald.
