$4,000.

The Supreme Court has confirmed the judg
ment Of the Circuit Court OF Abbeville In the
case of r. A. Richey against the Southern
Railway. The verdict was for $4,000 for dam
ages sustained by plaintiff In Greenville
while in the employ Of the plaintiff. Mr.
Richey has had exciting and thrilling expe
riences. None come quite 80 near a fatality
as the last engagement with a locomotive
which sent its rods in unusual directions, and
which in their gyrations inflicted personal
injuries which the court deemed serious, and
from which Mr.. Richey may never recover
Nj. Richey will receive a handsome sum Of
money. While the money cannot heal
wounds, yet it can keep a man in his old age
free from the care and anxiety incident tc
earning ones daily bread.

Why State Candidates are UnOppOse'

Why State Candidates are UnOppOsed
For the first time since reconstruction days
candidates for all State offices are without op
position except as to Railroad Commissioner
whose term is four or six years.
This is an anomalous state of affairs, ano
has been the subject of much comment by the
press generally.
No doubt the present State officers are al
competent and obliging as could be foun
granting this. 1t Is still a question whether OF
not this explains the absence of opposition.
Undoubtedly there are men in the State
who, barring their lack Of experience. would
make as good officers. The reason then must
be sought elsewhere.
There is a deep seated conviction in the
minds Of the voters Of the State that an
officer whose.term is only for two years. and
who has pesformed his duty faithfully and
capably should be endorsed for a second term,
So completely has this view Of the matter
aiken hold of the minds OF the people, that
without exception, State officers have been
allowed to succeed themselves for q second
term.
1t appears that this idea is founded in right,
PROFESSIONALLY the man OF experience, other
things being equal, is best qualified to look
after the peoples interests, and while he is
not thereby entitled 10 q lite tenure. he should
at least be allowed time to get some substan'
tisl good out Of the place.
The present system of canvassing the State
is very expensive and the officer who enjoys
only one term of two years, after %deductine
campaign expenses gets little more than 8
support during his term.
1t may be suggested that we might as well
make all terms four years. This is unneces'
sary, as the people, who are usually right,
take the proper view OF the situation, and ex'
tend this courtesy to their deserving servants
while they retain the privilege of disposing
of those who have been unfaithful, after two
years OF service. This safeguard is entirely
proper and the rewarding OF faithful services
is no less proper.

ANOTHER PACIFIC ROAD.

There Is to be another transcon.
tinental railroad which will be, when
built, and probably will continue to be,
the northernmost Of them ALL The
fears and doubts of the British stock
holders of the Grand Trunk have been
overcome and they have consented to
commit that line to a $125, 200, 900 ex-
tension. That is the sum which it is
estimated will be required to build
from Quebec to Port Simpson on the
Pacific, with the exception of section
between North bay on Georgian bay,
and Winnipeg, which the Dominion
government will take care or.
Whether the sum mentioned will be
sufficient,and whether, if it is, the out
lay will be profitable are matters which
the future must determine. When the
Northern Pacific was begun there
were many conservative Americans
who admitted that the road could be
built, but cortended that there never
would be much business for it to do.
They said it was altogether too far
north. They would have scoffed at
the idea of the construction of road
still farther to the north. But the day
came when the Canadian Pacific was
built. That road has been able to
get along during the winters without
much difficulty.
The business OF the American lines
will be little affected by the new road.
That of the Canadian Pacific. no
doubt, will be, for which reason it has
been fighting the Grand Trunk in the
dominion parliament, but without sue.
cess. Parliament has approved of a
plan Of construction, and now that the
Grand Trunk has accepted 1t nothing
remains but to sell bonds and lay
rails.-Chicago Tribune.

FRUIT GRATING.

The grating Of fruit trees has to.
day become such common operation
that there is no need to present the
ordinary methods, but what is less
we'll known is that one may take young
fruits of certain species and graft
them on the branches of other trees.
La Nature, Paris, publishes a pho
tograph showing how a pear Of one
variety was grated on o branch not
Its parent. The bark was slit at the
end Of branch, and into this slit the
stem Of the fruit was inserted, the
fruit ripening as though 1t had never
been disturbed from the original placI
Of growth.
This method seems to open up
wide field as we'll as from the scien.
tlfic as from the practical point of
view. II is easy to see all the advan-
tages that could be derived from the
method for the purpose of transport
ing fruit from trees too heavily load
cd to those which have few fruits
upon tA9m.-Public Opinion
