the same. In our judgment, the con-

the old regime, and it will do very lit

citizens who are opposed to the viola

AS to Female Colleges.


It has been suggested to the AdVer-
tiser on two or three occasions recent
ly that it urge upon the people of the
city the Importance of establishing a
female college-Laurens Advertiser.
Contemporary, there is no such
thing as a female college. A college
is neither masculine nor feminine
but neuter gender, third person, sim
gular-sometimes very singular, es-
pecially when it gives a diploma" on
a graded school curriculum. There
are colleges for women, and there are
women's colleges. There used to be
young ladies' seminaries, but there
is none now-more's the pity-bu'
there are no female colleges any
more.-Newberry Observer.
And yet there are female colleges
in the State, sex or no sex. It is very
unfortunate that the colleges do not
all have short, convenient names
such as Wofford, Converse, etc. Such
names as female college," college
for women "woman's college,
Presbyterian college," and the like
are very Observation-Disclosures Ian.

without thought or request for re-

The state Medical Association,

pointed for the purpose is the State
Board of Health. Is it gracious to
ridicule and to ignore its urgent re
quests for the legislation necessary
to facilitate the discharge of its du-
ties? Yet such is the amazing posi-
ton blatently occupied by some poll
tcians and few newspaper editors.

public health And why should they
not interest themselves sufficiently 70

The Wall Street Journal says that
more than one in every ten persons in
the United States has a savings bank
account and that the number of depos-
itors is growing at the rate of more
than half a million year. Official
figures of the comptroller of the cur
rency give the number of such deposi-
tors for 1907 as 8,588,81 and the
amount of their savings as $780,
078, 945. These figures show the enor-
nous reserve resources at the COM
mand of people of moderate incomes

Ten million dollars is substantially

Ten million dollars is substantially
the amount which the paper trust
increased the price upon the product
consumed by the printing industry in
the last nine months, and the thievine
combine announces another increase
of SO, 900, 900 for next year. This adds
about fifty per cent to the former acost
of white print paper. There is virtu-
ally no reason whatsoever for this
enormous advance. Wages have not
been raised by the trust beyond a
trif1ing percentage and the increased
cost of pulp is very small. In4fact
the cost of production is but very
little more than when print paper was
sold for forty dollars or less per- ton.
And yet the United States govern
ment, Notwithstanding it's antitrust
laws, seems powerless to break up
this abominable combination Of srob-
bers.

Speaker Cannon has removed
Representative G. r. Davis of the
Third district of Minnesota from the
agricultural committee. One of the
reasons assigned for the speakers
action is that the Davis agricultural
high school bill was drafted in the
agricultural department by Assistant
Secretary Hays and that the DEPART
ment was merely using Davis as an
instrument to push the bill through.
So long as Cannon is speaker Mr..
Davis should not expect place on

The interstate commerce commits.
sion's inquiry into the charges
against the Pullman Sleeping Car
company at st. Paul elected the infor-
nation that porters on the system
receive a salary of only twenty-five
dollars per month, and that from this
sum they are compelled to purchase
their uniforms and pay for all linen
lost or spoiled. With such pittance
as this the Pullman car porter can
hardly be blamed for giving a gentle
reminder to passengers who forget to
dig up their tips. The porter is a
beggar by compulsion and not from
choice and the term, professional
panhandler, " ofttimes applied to him,
is not deserved.

So-called "expert testimony" as
brought into :requisition in criminal
cases nowadaystis an absolute farce
and the practice should be discon-
tinued. Take, for instance, case
like Thaw's, where both the prosecu-
tion and the defense introduced
experts to give testimony. These
experts played into the hands of
whatsoever side hired them and
their evidence was consequently fatty
contradictory-one side supporting
the contention of the prosecution and
the other that of the defense. This
sort of testimony can have no other
effect than that of confusing the
jurors-it places them, meta phorically
speaking, at sea. Expert opinion, to
be of any value, should be rendered
without partiality. .s
