WANTS TO KEEP TILE MONEY AT
HoME.-Representat Doar Of George
town, has introduced a bill looking to
l:eeping South Carolina money in South
Carolina by requiring all public print
ing in this state to be given to printing
establishments in South Carolina. The
fact that an amount Of printing has
been done out of the state in the last
few years, for which the taxpayers
money was spent, Is the justification
for this bill. It's provisions are as fol-
lows:
Be 1t enacted by the general assem-
bly, Of the state of South Carolina:
Section l. That all public officers,
both county and state within this state,
shall hereafter purchase their office
supplies and stationery from dealers
within this state, and having thelr
place Of business established WITHIN
this state, and shall let all contracts Tor
public printing which is paid for from
public funds to printers doing business
and having their established place OF
business within this state.
Sec. 2. No purchase Of stationery
nor contract for printing in violation
of section of this act shall be Valld
obligation against any county nor
against the state Of South Carohna'
and no bill for printing or stationery IN
violation of section l Of this act shall
be paid by any officer having the GUS
tody Of public funds.

HIS TERRIBLE EYES.
Senator cass Could Almost Paralyze a
Man With a Look.

Senator cass Could Almost Paralyze
Man With a Look.
Giant heads, bodies and brains
we're Webster and Cass. All the
strength of New Hampshire granite
was concentrated in those two sons.
To look upon them made the ordinary
man feel small. Wonderful eyes they
possessed, and men have been known
to shiver with dread when one or the
other allowed his glance to fall upon
them. Cass could look through a
stranger in a way to make his brain
burn and his knees knock together
One searching stare seemed to destroy
all mentality and fill the victim with
paralytic emotions.
No man dared take liberties with
Cass. In 1916 the proprietor or the
National hotel in Washington was
man who so closely resembled the
great senator from Michigan that he
was often mistaken for him. An ola
friend, returning from journey, en-
tered the lobby and, seeing him lean
ing against the desk, slipped up De-
hind and hit him a terrific whack on
the shoulder, saying cheerily and ST.
multaneously: Hello, old man! Here
am back again. How are you?" Sen
ator Cass Strengthened up his six feet
three and, turning upon the assailant
his terrible. bloodshot eyes, almost
annihilated him with a look. Not a
word was spoken. That look was am
ple. The stranger was so 'rattied
that he could not even apologize, but
skunk dejectedly out Of the hotel.
Later in the day when congress was
supposed to be in session the stranger
returned to the hotel to shake HANDS
with the proprietor and tell him all
about the Cass incident. Walking
bravely up, he laid his hand down on
his friends shoulder and, without
waiting for a greeting, surprised hln
with: "See here, old fellow, you go'
me in a deuce of a scrape this morn
ing. Why, you know, 1 took old Cass
for you, slapped him on the back
nearly taking off a shoulder, and the
old fool looked at me as if he wanted
to commit murder. The darned ole
lunatic. why doesn't he stay out ol
here? He knows'-Again the grea
senator from Michigan Strengthened
up his six feet three, again he turned
his bloodshot eyes, again he LOOKED
and again the victim fled. TWO mis-
takes of that kind in one day!

TO be Continued.

Possibility OF RoO5EvELT.-Some OF
Mr.. Bryan's friends cherish the delu-
sion that the Republican national con-
vention may nominate a reactionary
candidate and that this would make
the election of even Mr.. Bryan possi-
BILE. The Chicago convention will do
nothing Of the kind. If the reactionary
elements in the Republican party sue
ceed in preventing Secretary Tafts
nomination, they will get Theodore
Roosevelt. Let there be no misunder-
standing about that.
No matter how many official state
ments Mr. Roosevelt may issue declin-
ing a third term, he will seize the Re-
publican nomination himself rather
than permit it to go to any man who
does not represent the Roosevelt poll
cies and who is not in sympathy with
the Roosevelt administration. That is
the situation which the Democratic
party must face. and there is nothing
to be gained by imagining in the Re-
publican party a state of affairs that is
not going to exist.-New York World
