the South Carolina college conferred
all honor very much deserved, but II
made the degree common by confer

When degrees are so numerous they

Having conferred the degree or
thirty-seven distinguished gentlemen,
it is a little surprising that the South
Carolina college didn't go little fur
ther and make every college presl-
dent in the United States and Europe

erous they are not very valuable ala
there was no reason to slight any

Editorial Correspondence.

Columbia, Feb. 6.-Only about ten
davs more of the legislative session
remain for work. Up to this time on
" about thirty-hve acts Of the tive
hundred introduced have been order
ed enrolled for ratification, which,
means they will become law. OF
these all are of a local nature except
one or two.
There has been a great deal OF talk
in the present legislature, many OF
the new members seeming to be OF
the opinion that they had message
to deliver and it was in the halls OF
the legislature that it must be dellv-
ered
All of the really important ques-
tons, except possibly that OF educa-
ton. have not been touched upon. The
question Of taxation, which is always
an important one, has not been dis
cussed, and no measure proposed to
get an equitable assessment OF the
property among the counties. Such
measure would be difficult to get
through but it is of far more impor-
tance than anything which could
come before the legislature. There
seems to be no way to reduce expe1i-
ditures and in fact no proposition has
been proposed by those who talked
so loudly on the campaign about high
taxes and the burden OF taxation, tc
reduce the expenditures. In or own
county the relief proposed is to IN
crease the salary of the supervisor
and the salaries of few magistrates
and constables, which is proper but
which will not tend very much to d
reduction of expenditures.
A bill has passed the house to give
a part of the privilege tax to Win
throp college, but this is dangerous
LEGISLATION unless it is the purpose to
have this tax wiped out entirely. Ii
this division can be made it would
be much better to let the entire tax
go into the state treasury and then
make a direct appropriation TO these
colleges by the legislature. That has
ALWAYS been my position, but | was
told a year ago that this could not be
done inasmuch as this was a tax to
paw the cost of inspection and if you
made it tax for revenue, then it was
unconstitutional. Maybe it will 20
through alright and if nobody raises
the question it may be good idea.
But it is a variable quantity and 1t
cannot be forecasted what it will
amount to.
The compulsory education bill has
been killed in both houses. This IS
a measure that should have passed.
IF we are to have a system OF public
schools we should have some meas
ure bv which the children of the state
should be given the advantage CT
these schools. Some of our leglsla-
tors seem to forget that the child has
rights as we'll as the parent and that
these rights are worthy of considera-
ton. But there are always those
who can see a "nigger in the wood
pile" in every measure. We should
not be so much concerned about the
:.1iaeer'' as about the children Of our

rnOrc court StcnOGraphcrS. Inc Dill
has passed the house and no doubt
will pass the senate. The state has
grown in population and wealth in
the last few years and this created
more business for the courts and the
same number OF circuits has existed
for many years. But if we had twice
as many circuits We would still hear
OF the laws delays and the congested
condition of our courts.
The bill to abolish the department
of immigration is the first special or
der on the house calendar. 1t was
discussed last week and is an ad-
iourned debate order for tomorrow.
1t is not probable that the bill will
pass. Many Of those who voted
against it last year will not vote to
: abolish it this year inasmuch as they
desire to see it given Z fair trial be-
fore abolishing it. The bill will not
pass the house.
There is proposition for Green
wood and Newberry to build a bridge
n Island Ford across Saluda river
tSbme Greenwood and Newberry c1tl-
lens have been here in the interest
OF the bridge. Capt. Joe jenkins was
here for several days and he is very
rnnch interested in the bridge. 1T
would also be Of benefit to Laurens
and this county should bear part OF
the expense Of the bridge.
This is the seventh year | have
snent in Columbia during leglsla-
tive session, and it has been success
sive wears. I have seen many come
and 90. The men who were leaders
IN the senate and house when l 1lrst
came here, many of them, are not
mentioned now. Some Of the old
staeers are still here, but if a man
wants TO continue to come to Column
h;a as member of the legislature
he had better sit still while here and
ATTEMPT nothing that will be Of bene-
tit to his people, but keep himself IN
position to 60 back in his county and
talk abour high taxes and the burden
O; taxation and make the dear peo-
ole believe he will do the dickens and
paw up the earth when he gets to
| Columbia and the question OF taxa
ton comes up. He will not do any
thing when he gets here-better for
him not to-taxes may remain nlgn,
as they will, but SO long as he does
nothing he will be alright with his
people at home. But let him dc
something that will benefit his peo-
ple and if it takes a little money why
the cry Of extravaganza soon goes up
and they will tell it that this man
who is really interested in his people
and their welfare will soon bankrupt
the county and he is left at home and
the low tax candidate gets the vote,
though if he had sense enought to
! represent his people, we would know
lie could not reduce taxes.
But | trust this legislature will be
! able to reduce taxes for I find it very
difficult to meet the amount that IS
now levied

Mike Wagner, the one-legged tramp
who has been confined in the county
Jail the past week, has been cutting up
some queer antics. He has been in the
habit of sleeping all day and sitting up
all night. At times he has filled his
drinking cup with water and then pull
ing the slip off his pillow, would SOAK
the latter in the cup and attempt to eat
the slip, imagining that it was rye
bread. Sometimes he has attempted to
fasten his shoe on his peg leg, at other
times on his knee and unless assisted
in putting on his coat has always stuck
the peg leg through the sleeves. When
first brought to Jail he would not talk
but he got over that and used his
vocabulary SO much as to disturb the
sleep of other prisoners and Caroline
Oils in particular.

Facts Regarding the Lab
oratory of the Chamberlain Medi-
cine Co., Des Moines, Iowa

cine TO-, lies MONIES, Iowa
A person purchasing a bottle of
Chamberlain Cough Remedy has no
conception of the magnitude of the
laboratory where this medicine is man
ufactured. The machinery and APP
paratus used in its preparation was de-
signed especially for the purpose, and
costs several thousand dollars Europe,
South America and the United States
supply the various ingredients of this
remedy, and only the highest obtain
able quality is used. No pains or ex-
pense has been spared in making it as
nearly perfect as possible.
A force of helpers representing homes
enough to populate an average Iowa
town are regularly employed at the
plant of the Chamberlain Medicine
company at Des Moines, iowa Their
printing department, which is usually
of a business of this kind, ranks as one
of the best in the state, and is thorough
ly equipped with automatic presses and
folders of the latest improved type.
Here enough print paper is used in one
year to spread over ten farms of 100
acres each. upon which is printed adj
vertising matter, directions and labels
in twenty-eight different languages and
dialects. Enough lumber is used in
making the cases in which the medi-
zines are shipped to build an eight room
house on each of these ten farms every
three months. The bottles used by this
firm every year, which are filled by
machinery at the rate of 1000 per hour,
if placed end to end would reach across
the United States seven times or almost
encircle the globe.
