The hope has been expressed in
certain quarters that Governor Hey
ward might be induced to break the
established precedent and enter the
gubernatorial race for the third term.
They argue that as his record as the
Chief Executive has been so brilliant
that he is entitled to another term.
With due respect to the ability of the
Governor, this kind Of talk is, in our
opinion at least, the rottenest kind of
tsffy. There has been nothing brilliant
about his two administrations simply
because there has been no event in
the affairs of State for the display Of
brilliancy. That he has made safe,
conservative and courteous Governor
none will deny, but even this will
not justify him in sweeping away
the time honored precedent of only
two terms to one encumbent of the
Executive cfice just to crafty the
wishes of few i'll advised friends.

Columbia Evening Record.
Some years ago legislative COM
mittee recommended the sale of the
property on lower Main street, owned
By the South Carolina college. The
committee took the ground that the
land would bring an excellent price
and with this money the present
buildings could be improved. The
trustees, however, have about def
nitely decided that the property
should be held and that in time with
a university all Of it could be used.
The. college is growing stronger every
year and there is no doubt but that
the university bill as defeated last
year through the efforts Of Charleston
will pass in the next two years.

When Para Minded the Baby.

When Papa Minded the Baby.
Oae day papa said that he would
mind the baby while mamma went
down stairs to entertain visitor, and
mamma consented. "But," said she,
Il am afriad something will happen
to it. Men always do the wrong
things with babies"
Papa was very quiet and careful
for awhile, never taking his eyes from
the baby where it lay asleep in it's
little lace line crib. But after awhile
he got up and tiptoed off to the
other room because be wanted to
smokea cigar, and be left four-year-
old Helen in the room and told her to
be sure not to wake it up.
Papa got to looking into a book
and he quite forgot about the baby.
Then he hurried to the room with
guilty feeling.
The next minute mamma was
frightened almost cut of her wits by
papa's cry: Hurry! Hurry! Some
things the matter with baby!'
Mamma ran up stairs as fast as her
trembling legs could carry her and
there lay baby, as white as chalk and
it's face all drawn and 80 queer that
it looked awful.
''Its dead!" shrieked mamma, but
at the sound baby woke up and cried
so heartily that it was easy to see thst
it was alive.
Then mamma snatched it up and
they saw what had happened. Helen
had seen nurse using the nice white
baby powder Oh baby, 30 that she had
poured the whole boxfull on it's face.
Il will never, never, never leave
you alone with the baby again" said
mamma to papa. And papa was so
ashamed that Helen felt really sorry
for him.

At Home and Abroad.

Ex congressman ". J Talbert de-
clared for strict prohibition in re-
cent speech at religious gathering
held in Edgefeld county. He also
expressed himself as being opposed
to the State selling wbiskey in any
way, shape or form. The Sunday
school speaker seemipgly forgets
that there is only ore 81 three plans
for the State to pursue in dealing
with this vexed question: First, abso-
solute prohibition of the liquor traffic;
second, high license; third, dispen-
eary. As to the first, God knows
that if we had our way we would wipe
out every drop of the accursed stuff,
but, then, our observation leads US to
the belief that absolute prohibition
is impracticable and, furthermore,
that there is no such thing. From the
time that the morning stars sang to-
gether for JOY at the birth q OF new
world men have drank of the stuff
until they have become drunken, and
80 this self evident condition will
continue to the end of time. The
prohibitionists themselves scknowl-
edge this conclusion as an incon-
trovertable fact because they do not
advocate absolute prohibition, but
they are willing to compromise with
the devil and their conscience by
consenting to it's sale for medical,
scientific and manufacturing pur-
poses. Every intelligent mind will
readily see that many loopholes are
left open for men to engage in the
illicit sale Of whiskey to supply the
damand BY the establishment OF
places for it's sale under the plea ofone
of the three, or all Of them, or the
exceptions named. The temptation
to do so is great apd the profits are
almost irresistible and there are men
who will engage in the business with
ont the slightest fear Of detection
and conviction because the law
makes it possible to violate the law
with impunity, and, moreover, it en-
courages them TO do so. As to high
license. This system would be inequit-
sble in thatit would give privilege
to the rich man to the exclusion of
the poor one; or, else, there would be
bar rooms whose numbers would be
limited only BY the inclination OF the
persons to engage in the traffic and
their ability to pay the license. The
evils that would follow in the path of
such are so apparent that it is scarcely
worth while to mention. This leaves,
only the dispensary to be disposed
OF. Acareful study Of the three prop
ositions leads US to the inevitable con-
clusion that the 'original dispensary
law is unquestiopably the best solu-
tion Of the whiskey problem so far
proposed. The intelligent and obser-
want searcher after truth, whose
mind is not warped by prejudice and
is free from bias, cannot help but
come to the conclusion that the dis
pensary system, IS first enacted,
after all has been said pro and con,
is the best plan yet suggested, Mr..
Talbert to the contrary notwith-
standing.

How Elderly Women Should Dress.

The eternal fitness In clothing for
elderly ladies is discussed in the New
Idea Woman's Magazine for January.
The writer states truly enough that
"any failure on the part of the matron
to observe the boundary line between
girlish and matronly fashions will de-
tract decidedly from her dignity and
the effectiveness of her appearance, UNI
less she has preserved the graceful
figure Of her girlhood, and has other
wise retained her youthful charms"
AS to what is the exact boundary line,
the writer is wisely silent, remember
ing the adage that "a woman is as old
provision, it Is doubtless to be left to
the individual woman to decide how
old she does look, although dire pen
ance may fall upon her should she de-
eide wrongly. 1t is for the woman who
decides that she does look elderly that
the advice in the New Idea Woman's
Magazine is penned. "In coats" 1t Is
said. probably the semi fitting mode is
the most popular with older women, as
1t is suited to any kind Of figure. Goats,
as part of suit. are not worn by older
women as rule, any shorter than q
deep hip length, and for a separate
wrap the three-quarter or seven
eighths length is given the preference"
In regard to materials, the soft fabrics.

broadcloths, velvets and velveteens,
will be used a great deal by matrOnly
wearers." Several cuts show street
and house gowns suitable for older
women.

the subject will then take care of itself.
One man in this precinct has well said.
Licensed saloons are as much worse
than bootlegger's joints than bootleg

That the liquor business has come to
be natural curse we believe law will
soon follow to stamp 1t out OF our
country. The liquor traffic would then
be but a scar on prosperous and
healthy nation, and the scar will in
time fade away in the sunshine OF
higher ideals and attainments.
