Northern passes are good from Jan. 1
to Dec. 81. 1908. but those on the
Northern Pacific are good only from
Jan. l to March Is, 1903, and hence
there is a protest. One member of the
general assembly this year has ac-
knowledged receipt of his annual over
the Pioneer line. calling attention to
the fact that the pass might have
read March s, as the legislature adj
journs on March 6, and two days was
sufficient to reach home. 1t remains
now to see whether this gentle remind
er will bring forth a pasteboard that
will last until the closing day of the
year or not.

TO REGULATE TRUSTS
Mr.. HOAR MAKES A NOTABLE
SPEECH ON HIS MEASURE IN
TUE SENATE.
FEELING OF INSECURITY

Maintains That All Thoughtful Men
Are Agreed Some Legislation ls
Necessary for the Control Of Large
Masses Of Capita-Senator Vest
Calls Attention to the Distress Re-
sulting From the Shortage in Coal.
Washington, Jan. THE day In the
senate was eventful because of n
notable speech by Senator Hoar on his
bill regulating trusts and an attack
by Senator Vest on protected indus
tries through the operation of the
Dingley law. Senator Hoar's utter
ances were listened to with marked
attention. He said that nearly all
thoughtful! men in this country are
agreed that some legislation, state or
national, ought to be had for the regu-
lation and control of what are called
trusts" and of large masses of capital
accumulated by corporations OF arti-
fetal persons holding property and
conducting business without individ-
ual liability. There was, he said, a
general feeling of insecurity and
alarm about the matter and we were
dealing with a real peril and not with
argued that If his bill should become
law and prove effective no corporation
engaging in the which is
within the jurisdiction of congress can
keep its condition a secret The bill
he said, depends for its validity on
the constitutional power of congress
to regulate international and interstate
commerce. Should the bill not prove
effectual he ~contended that it would
be easy to extend its operation by i'm
/ posing 2 like personal liability on every
stakeholder.
Senator Vest used as a text for his
remarks his resolution introduced
Monday i%nstructing the committee on
finance to prepare and report a bill
removing the duty OF coal. Feeble IN
the extreme and supporting himself
on his desk, he called attention to the
condition OF distress which had arisen
as a result of the shortage in the coal
supply. There was breathleSs silence
in the chamber as he spoke to catch
his words. He said that the question
was no longer a partisan one, but one
of humanity and thai we are not on
the verge o. a crisis but actually in it,
He charged the Republican senators
with being silent and dumb to the
state OF affairs, having only in mind
the party cry, stand pat" He char.
acterized the Dingley tariff act as a
sacred elephant with which nothing
was TO be done He sarcastically re-
marked that If the question was one
of raising money for the next presi
Dental campaign that was an end OF
the discussion.
Mr.. Aldrich tool exception to some
OF Mr.. Vests statements and at his
request the resolution went over.
At 4:30 the senate adjourned ate q
brief executive session.

Citizens of Tennessee Town Reward
Dr. Hills.

Several of DR. Hillis's "admiring
friends" of Mckenzie, Tenn, shortly
after his utterance about wanting to
make up Booker Washington's bed,
made up u purse of 80 cents and sent
it to him ut Brooklyn along with
the following note: 1--WE are all
poor, tut We want to share our sub
stance with you in admiration for
your wonderful sacrifice of yourself
ON the altar of duty for mere opin-
ions sake. Your courage in assum-
ing the affirmative on the question,
':Shall Booker Washington have me
spread his quilts!' is one of the
finest examples of manly indepen-
dence that the twentieth century has
yet produced. We rather think the
Indianapolis chambermaid has you
bested at this stage Of the game, and
her position is probably more
renumerative than yours, but We
glory in your spunk aud We are not
willing for your efforts to 60 un-

At the outbreak of the Civil war
Mr. Hirsch, then quite young man,
joined the Washington Light lnfan-
try, with which company. he partic-
ipated in the various campaigns on
the coast and in Virginia, serving
the larger part Of the time in the
capacity of regimental commissary
for Col Simonton's regiment.
In 1866, he opened mercantile
business in Klngstree, was elected
clerk of court in 1868, and at the

greater part of his life Mr. Hirsch
was well known in Williamsburg

GAVE THE WRONG MEDICINE |
CHILD oOSEo WITH MORPHINE
INSTEAD OF CalOMEt.
Sad Affair Near 0reeIeyville-A Bad
Negro Looking for Trouble
Gets What He Deserves.

| GRRELEYVILLE--J l: ONr CON-
munity was shocked last Friday
BY the death of little Jesse, the
seven-year. son of Mr. Judson
Bradham who was poisoned by an
overdose of morphine, which deadly
drug was through mistake admins
tered instead of . dose of calomel.
Having been given so large a
quantity the child lapsed into in
sensibility and never recovered con-
sciousness. The fatal accident and
its terrible result are universally
deplored, and the deepest sympathy
is felt for the unfortunate parents OF
the child.
On Thursday of last week one
Morris Conyers, a drunken and
worthless negro, took it upon hi m
self to visit the field of Mr. R s
Brunson-a well-known and respect
ed farmer Of the Santee section
where the latter's hands were at
work. He interfered with the neglo
laborers, broke their implements and
tried to raise o row. When Mr.
Brunson ordered him to leave Con-
yers did 80, but cursed Mr. Brunson
and said he would get his gun and
return. He did come back later on,
armed with 3 gun, with which he
atttmpted to shoot Mr Brunson, who
managed to get behind a tree and
from that point of vantage addressed
load of small shot at close range
in the direction of the trespasser
who was looking for trouble, filling
his face and neck with No 8 shot.
Conyers is neglo with bad
record, but We learn that he took
the hint in this case and departed
sans ceremony for parts unknown.
Greeleyville High school will close
on Friday, June 5, and on Saturday
there will be picnic at Mr. T W
