SUMTER, ORANGEBURG AND CO.
LUMBIA.
The work of securing appropria-
tons for Sumter, Oranyeburg and
Columbia fell to Representative Lev
er. He began early in the session to
plan how ne could get an increase on
the amount already allowed for Sum-
ter, $4,000, have new building
erected at Orangebulg and either en-
large the present building at Colum-
bla or erect new one commensurate
with the needs Of the Columbia Of
today. He planned wisely. He was
successful in all three undertakings,
and will get $4,000 for Orangeburg
outright. an iU rease of at least $1O,-
600, and possibly more for Sumter,
ana gets a complete investigation by
the SupcrviSm" architect Of the
treasury into the needs Of the Column
bia Office. This investigation will be
made before the next session Of con-
"raSS. and t;!cn Mr.. Lever will either
have Columbia given Kew building

d"llar> Il" the present structure will
be :" rcmodrilcd' and enlarged that
1t will be useful and commodious for
many years to come.
A word should be said for the splen-
did delegations of business men who
came to Washington at Mr.. Levers
request and appeared before the COM
mittee on buildings and grounds in
behalf Of Sumter, Orangcburg and
Columbia. That they made an en-
cellent impression on the committee is
best shown in the success that their
congressman has achieved in securing
something substantial for each of the
places named.
These new authorizations, with the
fine buildings constructed at Florence,
Greenwood and the other places al
ready named. speak in the best posi-
bic way for the successful efforts Of

tive districts their proper share Of

mlds We're handled; for, even allow
ing for the vast army Of men, some
sort of mechanical contrivance must
nave been used.
One theory s tina, as each course
OF stone was 4. |, sand embankment
was built round it with long easy
slopes, so that the stones for the
next course could be pushed up on
rollers and slide into place without
any actual lifting, and so on, the py-
ramid being in fact buried as fast as
1T was built. until the top was reach
cd, when the stupendous job of re-
moving the sand emDankment was
commenced.
This might account for the vast
amry of laborers used; for instance,
it is said that in building the great
pyramid Of Cheops, 100000 men were
employed for eighty years, although
the quarry from which the stone was
obtained was only 5000 feet from the
pyramid.
The City Investing Building, tho
largest Skyscraper in New York, hap
pens to be nearly the same height as
the pyramids. If we required the
same number Of days. labor for this
building. which talks year to erect,
as the Egyptians took, we would
have thirty multiplied by 100000, or
3.o00.00O men workin" every day for
one year on this one building.
Imagine a number Of men equal to
almost the entire population Gnclud-
ing men, women and children) of
New York City, trying to reach the
corner of Broadway and Cortlandt
street every morning. Even if they
got there, there would remain the
impossibility of finding standing
room. 1t alone workinf room for them,
or Of providing commissariat or
hygienic department. Against this g.
100000 men working every day for
one year, the average number on the
City Investing Building would not
exceed 1000 men Il day, while the
maximum would probably never reach
5000.

The letter OF w +. Sheahan vim
dicates Mr. Bryan in the alleged
contribution of Thos. f RYAN.
which was published by the New

Mr.. Bryans character have proven
futile. No one can deny but that
he is one of the clcanest men who
ever appeared in public life. The
letter of Mr. Sheehan to Mr. Bryan
is as follows:

made up of voluntary contribution.

sides. There was not the slightest
suggestion at the time from any
body that you had any knowledg,

Call Them Counties

The Lake Charles Press is in
favor of changing the parishes"
to counties and expresses it's
views in the following;
'Those who have never been in
this State nor learned much of
its history are surprised that it's
political divisions are called par
ishes instead of counties, as in
other States. TO them it seems
that the State is cut up into little
parcels of land as in Ireland.
Now it is recommended by the
retiring governor, Blanchard,
that the name counties be sub
stitutcd for parishes and there
seems no reason why the idea
should not be carried out.
The same paper prefers "coun-
ty commissioners to police jul
ries and has the following:
Governor Blanchard in his
message upon retirement recon-
mended the change 81 police ju-
ries' to county commission,
ers.' These two terms police
juries' and parishes" have been
a puzzle to the outside world.
What have the police juries to do
with the police? They do not
even have anything in common
with what is known as the police
powers of a State. 1t needs an
explanation before the people
generally can understand the
term, One can readily grasp
what the term parish stands
for but not so with police jul
ries "a term that has nothing
to do with police nor iuries.
