and to allow every county that desir-
ed it exemption from its provision.
This statement is rather broader than
the actual facts; but it conveys the
idea. Many representatives and law
yers throughout the state, have all
along believed that this practice was
unconstitutional; but no special effort
was made to put stop to it.
1t is very probable that the supreme
court decision in the case Of Dean will
be Of far-reaching effect. There are on
the statute books numerous general
laws that contain provisions which are
clearly unconstitutional, and all these
will have to be changed and amended
so as to bring them within the letter
and spirit Of section "a, article IL of
the constitution.

Charleston dispatch of December IL;
The cornerstone Of the administration
building Of the South Carolina inter-
State and West Indian exposition was
laid in the presence of over 10000 peo-
pie this afternoon. 1t was an ideal day
and the site of the exposition-the 18TH
mus of the peninsular on which Charles
ton ia h,Iilt-was the scene of wild en-
thusiasm, a happy augury of the suc-
cess of the great enterprise. The cor
ner-stone was laid with Masonic cere-
monies by Orlando Sheppard, grand
master of Masons, and addresses were
made by Governor McSweeney, OF

was instituted, resulting in finding the
carcass Of a cow riding serenely on a
truck of the coach, her neither extremi-
ties trailing on the ground. How she
got there was mystery and only con-
lecture can be made. 1t Is thought
that the engine may have hit her,
knocking her up against the side of
cut, and that the body then rebounded,
falling between two cars and down to-
wards the track, when. the movement
of the train in some way threw the
carcass on to the trucks. When first
discovered a passenger suggested that
it was the first time he had ever heard
or seen a cow stealing ride like a
tramp, but an Irishman solved it by
saying that she crept up to lick grease
from the axle Of the car and got
caught, the train moving away before
she could get out.

SPECIAL LEGISLATION,

In the case of George B. Dean, sher-
iff, against the county of Spartanburg
the supreme court has rendered de-
cision that will probably give The gen.
eral assembly some trouble en- she spec
ial legislation question.
The point at issue was whether Sher-
iff Dean was entitled to 20 or SO cents
a day for dieting prisoners Re claim
ed 80 cents under the general law re-
lating to the subject; but the county
commissioners were willing to pay on
ly 20 cents, holding that Spartanburg
county was exempt from the provisions
Of the general law, and that 20 cents
was the right figure, according to the
exception. Sheriff Dean appealed on
the constitutional ground that the gen.
eral assembly had no right to enact
special legislation where general law
can be made applicable.
Many points and authorities were
clteQ on Eotn SlQeS OIL the question: anu
the circuit court sustained the county
commissioners; but after considering
the whole matter, the supreme court
has laid this proposition down as the
law: In order that law may be gen.
eral, it must he of force in every county
in the state; and while it may contain
special provisions making its effect
different in certain counties. those
counties cannot be made exempt from
it's entire operation"
1t has been the custom of the general
assembly. when Il member wanted Il
special law for his county. TO pass the
law as applicable 10 the Whole state.

Judge Benet rendered his decision In
the Sims case in Spartanburg last Mon
day. c. 2. Sims was required to show
cause why he should not be disbarred:
There were eleven charges. Eight of
these were dismissed, there being no
evidence to sustain them: but for aid
ing prisoners to escape and obtaining
clients in an unprofessional manner
the Judge found evidence to sustain the
charges and he passed an order sus-
pending him one month. The opinion
of the judge was carefully prepared
