LEGISLATURE
HAS ADJOURNED.
Some of the Leading Acts
Passed.
THE CAPITOL MATTER.
Vast Extravaganza of
Cheap Politics.
Biennial Sessions, Resolution, Immi-
grafton Bureau, Labor Laws, Dog
License-N0 New Circuits.

The general assembly adjourned Sat-
urday, the 40 days for which the mem
bers could draw pay having then ex-
p'red. Some good laws were passed
and some bad bills were killed.
The state house commission and
Architect Milburn presented reply
to the legislative committee from
which it seems that the committee
was unwise and indiscreet in failing
to offer members of the commission
and the architect abundant opportu.
nifty to he heard. However, the gen.
eral truth remains that the people have
miserable, shoddy excuse ca state
house. The meat OF the whole matter
Is this: The appropriation of SITS, 600.
was not a drop in the bucket for COM
pleting the state house on the lines OF
its former construction. A smooth
tongued architect did not hesitate to
cajole an easily deceived commission
that he could complete the building
satisfactorily. Out Of the money
available only shoddy job was posi-
BILE. The initial blunder was made by
the legislature some years ago in pro-
posing to complete q five million Job
then half done with less than 5000, 900.
The commission should have had the
common sense to take Mr.. Marshall's
advice and not attempt the impossible.
; Cheapness in public building is the
greatest extravaganza. The whole
miserable business is due to the DEM
agogic rot about economy preached in
recent years. If the State hasaaQ money
TO spend, no money should be spent.
The endeavor was to get around this
by buying shoddy. The state house
money has therefore been wasted.
The following are among the lmpor-
tant bills passed.:
immigration bureau bill. Commits
sioner to get 81 900 and clerk, $1,000
This is the best bill passed.
The dog tax, so cents dog. (Should
have been $1.00.)
The Morgan labor Law; lately pub
lished in this paper.
The Cooper labor law amendment.
Resolution submitting biennial ses-
sions to the people.
To guard against the boil weeyil.
For voting out dispensaries.
The corporation tax license.
To regulate security loans under
$25.
Mr.. Irby's cotton mill pay check
bill.
The new circuit bills failed of pas
sage.

Had Delightful Party,

The younger set of young people had
a delightful Martha Washington party
at the home of Mr.. aud Mrs. d. III.
Counts on the evening of Weshington's
birthday. Colonial garb, powdered
hair and wigs and knee-breeches and
buckled shoes were the style and every
body had good time-.-due in large
measure to the hospitality of Mr.. and
Mrs. Counts.

W. ]. BRYAN in
SOUTH CAROLINA.
He Spoke i'm Columbia and
Spartanburg.
GOOD IMPRESSION.
Laurens Men on Legis1a-
tive Committees.
Nebraska Man Wants the Platforms of
the Last Two National Conventions
Again Affirmed.

Col. William Jennings Bryan of Lin
coin, Neb, addressed the general as,
sembly aud citizens in Columbia Fri.
day at noon and Friday evening he
spoke to 1000 people in Spartanburg.
Mr.. Bryan was met by Legislative
committee in Augusta and Senator
Goodwin and Representative Cooper
were OF the committee.
Mr.. Cooper moved the resolution in.
viting Mr.. Bryan to Columbia. They
travelled TO Columbia in Col. Albert
w. Anderson's car, which he rendered
them In other words Laurens had
charge Of Bryan.
Mr.. Bryan's speeches were able and
eloquent. He spoke for the reaffirma-
tion of the 1896 platform aud that OF
1900 and urges fight for principle.
Mr.. Bryan is rarely honest man and
a good man, without doubt.
Mr.. Bryan declared that it was un-
wise to inject the negro question into
national politics. He condemned it
strongly. 1t will be remembered that
Senator Tillman has been agitating the
negro question throughout the North
and West, exactly where Bryan thinks
and says the agitation will do harm.
Mr.. Bryan will of course find out
later that his advice will not be fol-
lowed this year. He will find out that
the Daniels, Bicops, Baileys, Morgans,
Biackburns and Tillmans who have
been following him are "agin" him now.
Mr.. Bryan is for principle, as he sees it,.
He is one Of the few who sees princi-
pie at all in polit!cs-among the lead
ers.
Mr.. Bryan denounced Mr.. Cleveland
as usual in Columbia. 1t Is pity that
so big and able man as Mr.. Bryan
shonld be cursed by this petty spirit.
Mr.. Bryan will soon discover that it is
not from Cleveland that his cause Is in
peril. If those whom Mr.. Bryan calls
"reorganizers" obtain control of the
party this year it will be due, not to
Mr.. Cleveland, but to the distinguished
howlers who denounced as assistant
Republicans the Democrats who have
always opposed Bryan, IL will be the
leaders of the Bryanites who will fling
Bryan out OF doors. The "Reorganiz-
ers" will be HELPLESS without their aid.

Supposing that the Brice bill be an.
proved and become law, the Prohibi-
tionists can vote whiskey ou, of I.au.
rens county this ypar--f there be
enough prohibitionsts To abolish the
Laurens dispensary will cost the county
by the half mill tax and withdrawal of
school funds about $4,000 year. OF
this about $4,000 will fall upon the
town Of Laurens. This SUM is the pun
ishment, the fine, to be imposed by the
dispensary advocates upon counties
opposed to whiskey selling. If the dis
pensary is the curse that the prohibi-
tionists say, it should be worth ten
times $4,000 to be rid of it. II the pro-
hibitionists are in earnest, they have
the opportunity to make clean, clear
cut fight this year in Laurens. If they
win in half dozen counties this year.
they will win In dozen or twenty two
yearshence. Ii they Sow eat trength
they will frighten away even the inter-
ference of Senator Til.man-who is n
mighty smart man about going uo
against buzz saw. 1t seems to THE
ADVERTISER that if there are real pro.
hibit'ontsts in Laurens County, thew
can't avoid making fight. 1t is "Put
up or shut up"-"Shoot Luke or give
up the gunW
IHE ADVERTISERS fully believes that
with the dispensary gone, the blind Ii.
gers may be KEEP, suppressed with the
constables that the half mill tax will
employ. The ADVERTISER will help
all 1t can towards suppresslng the
blind tigers, II prohibition is voted in.
1t should be borne In mind that there
are comparatively few counties ia the
southern States, not having big cities,
In which whiskey is sold-except IN
South Carolina,
The question is; Which Is the cheap-
or Tor Laurens, to buy and drink each
year 100000 worth OF dispensary whis-
key, or to lose $4,000 in taxes?---

Various departments of "househoid hints" have unaccountably neglected to tell how solid gold plates may be warmed for the meat courses at din- ner.
 This may be done ln the right or tho wrong way. The right way is eI- emplihed at Castle Kilkenny. This is one of the oldest inhabited dwellings fin the world some of the rooms being 800 years old. Among its ancient treas ures is a service of sold plate.
 Beuides the ordinary plate service, Castle Kilkenny has the whole series of gold cups u8ed at coronation ban ouetu down to tho time of George IV. The gold Of the service plates is almost without alloy, consequently very soft and easily marred. Hence the plates are warmed and presumably also washed after use by being dipped into bot water held by a pair of tongs whose tips have been mudied in cham ois leather
