The Political Situation.

Gov. McSweeney, when he arrived
home from Chickamauga, promptly re-
turned the designations of Senators Till
man and McLaurin, giving as his reasons
therefor that it would do no good and
possibly much harm to have campaign
this year, and>that, in his opinion, ma
jority of the people were opposed to it.
The governor had received many letters
requesting him to refuse to accept the
designations and thus avoid the excite
ment and turmoil of apolitical campaign,
and the newspapers of the State were
almost unanimous in their opposition to
an extra primary. The governor also
said in an interview that if the Senators
insisted on resigning, he would ask them
to make their designations effective now,
and he would at once appoint their sue
eessors. Senator Tillman seemed not to
be pleased with the governors action
and in his reply talked rather SASSY"
McLaurin accepted McSweeneys view of
the situation and consented to withdraw
his resignation. Tillman has not yet sig
nifed his intention of withdrawing, but
we have no doubt but what he will do so,
and that we will have no campaign this
year. Governor McSweeney's course was
decidedly the best, and We are very much
pleased that the matter is ended, for this
year. Now, if Senator Tillman wishes
to oppose McLaurin, he is at perfect lib
erty to resign and come into next sum-
mer's campaign.

THE OCEAN SCORCHER.

Hs Who Brags About How Many
Times He HIS "Crossed."
The ocean scorcher, the woman or
man who was forever Dragging apout
how many times he had ''crossed,' Is,
thank heaven, on the decrease. Fash-
ion has at last set the seal Of her dis
approval on him, and he is rapidly be-
coming obsolete. The fashion IS now
never to mention the number of times
one has been to Europe. "The last time
I was over" is the way to refer TO an
over the water experience If you wish
to be in the vogue. OF course you may,
If you truthfully can, say "the time be-
fore last was over" or 1.-The tenth time
I crossed" or during my seventh trip
through Europe" but a great majority.
you will find, say 1.-The last time was
over" It is safer-when one has been
over but once.

to have it transpire later that the class
consisted Of himself and little girl.
1.-THE last time l was over' may, like
as not, have been the first. Still any
thing is better than the ocean scorcher
and his Dragging. To him 1t didn't
matter where he hadn't been or what
he hadn't seen or anything. but simply
how many times he had crossed.
The one time Oh record that any one
was known to get ahead Of these
scorchers was when lot Of them were
sitting swapping lies on a certain
steamship deck and nonscorcher, haV-
ing learned that the star scorchers rec
ord was 1SS runs. remarked, There's

anything, but just cross the ocean $50
times-he's the ships barber.

We do not like to say so, but the news

We do not like to say so, but the news
papers of this State are very largely to
blame for the recent sensational happen
ings in politics. Months ago they started
a campaign against McLaurin, and in
order to answer their charges and misrep-
resentation of him, was why he accepted
invitations to address the people in differ
ent parts of the State. We protested
against such course on the part of our
brethren of the press. McLaurin was
keeping quiet, and We were of the opin-
ion, to say the least, that it was manifest
" unfair to him to commence a cam
paign against him year in advance. If
he had begun his campaign, then it would
have been proper. Of course, the con-
duct of Senator Tillman in going to Gaff-
ney was manifestly improper and unfair,
but the conduct of the newspapers made
such things possible.

He Hacked on His Leg.

Caught in a bear trap on the banks
Of the Athabasca, near Milford. Me-,
John Mcleod, lumber scaler. was
obliged to take out his jackknife and
cut off his leg. The trap was too heavy
to move and was sprung in such way
that he could not reach over and re-
lease It. He was far from any human
being, and the only way out Of 1t SEEM
ed to be to cut off the leg.
That was done easily, because the leg
upon which he operated was Of wood.
But when he stumped back to camp 1t
made him mad to hear the jeers Of the
French Canadian cook Of the lumber
crew.
"Why you no take off you whole
wood laig, ali? You get out um thrap
and no spile you wood laig tall. ah?
Such a way out Of his difficulty had
not occurred to Mcleod before.

A rather old case has Just been decided

A rather old case has just been decided
by a New York court In one of the up
per counties of the State prison guard
was discharged for using profane langu-
age in the presence of prisoners at work
in the stone yard. He brought suit for
reinstatement, claiming that vigorous
language was necessary to the proper (i ),
cipiine of the cOnvicts under him, and
that the use of such language by him was
not sufficient ground for his discharge.
The court agreed with the ex-guard, and
ordered him to be reinstated. AS side
issue, when the swearing guard was dis
charged, it was found that it took three
non Swearing men to do his work. If
vigorous language is an aid to executive
ability, maybe that is why the New York
preacher made use of it some time ago
