The Cry of Politicians.

The best service that can be rem
dered for permanent prosperity is to
rebuke the assumption which certain
politicians continually are seeking to
create in the public mind, that con-
tinued prosperity depends On the sue.
cess of particular political party.
Our form Of government contem-
plates changes from time to time, and
nothing is so disastrous as to instil1
in the peoples minds the belief that
there is danger to business in chang

If the people cannot change theil
officers without creating panic, then
the logical step is to go to a mon

is 1t the way you do when bank sus-

bank is little uncertain makes a
rush of depositors, and they make 1t

Unusual Case in Lexington.

Lexington, Dec. 22.-Charlie F.
Robertson, a young white man OF the
Edmund section, was arrested and
lodged in Jail yesterday for the nom
payment of poll tax. Deputy Sher1n
Miller, who has charge of the collec-
ton of tax executions, made the ar
rest.
Robertson is about % years o. age
and claims that he has never paid a
poll. He was arraigned before Mag
istrate G.. A. Derrick and fine OF
$3.50 and costs was imposed. He
paid the poll and was released.
This is the first case in many years
where a person in this county has
been arrested for refusing to pay poll
tax, but the officers state that unless
others take warning and pay up at
an early date more arrests will be
made.

Denounces Man.Hunting.

MAN catching" by frivolous wo-
men was deplored in Philadelphia on
Sunday in a sermon by Rabbi Jos.
eph Krauskopf at Kenaseth Israel
temple. This, he declared, was re.
sponsible for a good portion OF
American divorces.
The Rabbi said: From the day
the daughter enters young woman
hood the sole thought OF many
homes is man catching. No artlhce
is shunped that shall enable the gor,
geously decked out huntress qulckes'
to entrap her victim.
There is probably no, thought
which occupies a young society wo'
man more tran that of being mar.
ried; there is probably. no thought
which occupies her less than that OF
being happy when married, or max
ing a husband happy"

SAIL FROM CHARLESTON.
House Members to Leave fol
Panama.

Washington, Dec. 27.-To famil-
iarize themselves with conditions un-
der the present form Of government
of the Panama canal zone and to
consider what changes, if any, are
desirable, IL members of the house
committee on foreign and interstate
commerce will leave Charleston, S.
c., tomorrow for Colon.
1t is not thought that any meas
ure having for it's object change IN
the form of civil government for the
zone will receive the consideration
of congress at the present session,
but as all but two of the members OF
the committee viii be members of the
house in the Sixty-frst congress, the
committee will find the information
secured now of value later.
There has been some discussion OF
the advisability Of attaching the zone
to one of the Southern circuits OF
federal courts.
The congressional party not only
will investigate this matter, but also
will look into all phases of the con-
struction of the canal.
The committee has not had under
consideration any suggestion to IN
clude the courts on the zone in one
of the federal circuits, nor has there
been any suggestion made to it that
labor conditions there are unsatis-
factory. 1t has before it, however, a
bill introduced by Representative
Mann of Illinois, calling for certain
changes in the form Of government
and the abolition of the isthmian
canal commission. The measure pro-
vides for the appointment by the
president of a chief engineer, chief
counsel and governor Of the canal
zone. It also makes provision for
the appointment of supreme court
for the zone with fixed tenure OF
Office.

Receivers for Seminole.

+ Cheraw, Dec. 28.-Judge Watts
tonight, after hearing the argu-
ments, announced that he would ap-
point receivers for the Seminole Sc
curities Company in accordance with
the request of j. G. Klugh. He stated
that on the allegations made he was
satisfied that there should be an in
vestigation of the affairs that could
only be done by a receiver. IF 1t be
true" said Judge Watts, that these
commissions were paid, it shocks my
conscience. OF course, it is a bad
blow, but 1 see no other remedy"
The bond was fixed at $4,000 for
the receivers and s150,000 for the
value of the property. Messrs. Huger
Sinkler and Frank G. Tompkins were
suggested by the attorneys for the
plaintiffs and others may be suggest
ed by the attorneys for the defend
ants tomorrow. The case was a long
one, but very interesting. The pas
sages between the attorneys, the alle-
cations made and answers returned,
the arguments, were all listened to
closely. The argument of attorneys
for Klugh was that the Seminole
company was a mere shell and for
the mere protection Of the stockhold-
ers the receivers should take charge.
The argument of attorneys for the
trustees was that the trustees were
not responsible for the action OF
some of the agents and that no case
had been made out; also that there
was protection inside the company
that had never been asked. The
argument of Mr. Bellinger for the
Seminole company was that the allie
cations were irrelevant and there
was protection inside the company
for the stockholders.
When the case was called there
was an array of attorneys on each
side. The Klugh complaint was rep
resented by F. Barron Grier and Mel
son & Nelson; Patterson by Lyles &
Lyles; Ruddell by Chas. c. Simms;
the Seminole company by G. Duncan
Bellinger and Chas. G. Dunn, and
the trustees by Aycock and Muller.
Messrs. Huger Sinkler, Jennings OW-
ings and several others represented
some of the stockholders. 1t was
agreed that the Klugh case should be
heard first.
