10000 probably seemed so far away
i'm those days that the spreading of
the business district beyond the
squares was scarcely thought of
Some 10 years ago nshen Spartanburg
county was ready to build new court
house the wise plan o. purchasing
handsome and spacious lot on one of
the side streets for. the new building
and abandoning the ord building on
the square (which in Spartanburg
was more like triangle) was adopted.
Newberry has followed Spartanburg's
example.
The town of Laurens is rapidly
growing and i'm time the space now
occupied by the court house would he
more useful and valuable for nark
purposes than for public building
The ownership of the ground by the
county rather than by the town is an
obstacle to changing the site of the
court house. as the county would
perhaps object to taxing itself to buy
n new plot of land. If the county
could be induced to surrender the
square to the town for reasonable
consideration, 1t would be to the
towns interest to buy it. especially rs
the relnOdeling of an old building IS
usually wasteful undertaking i'm the
long run. When a town has cone ~
have five or six thousand inhabitants.
it has outgrown its character as a
county seat and that remains only one
of the many factors i'm its Importance
1t would be n sound policy for all Of
the towns in South Carolina, having
court houses in the middle of squares.
which must be torn down sooner or
later. to convert the squares into
parks and build new court houses
elsewhere"
We would suggest that the Chamber
of Commerce, at its next meeting dis
cuss the feasibility of the plan sug-
gested above, and. since it is improb
able that they should disagree with
the idea take up at once the necessary
steps towards carrying it through The
time is limited and delay may mean
the waistefu expenditure of a large
sum of money on building that would
not only dctract from the appearance
of our square but in :; few years cause
continual congestion of traffic.

THE TORRENs SYSTEM.

Appearing last week i'm The Adver-
Torrens System of Land Registration
and Transfer, written for this paper
by Mr.. A. c. Todd 1t was clear cut,
concise discussion OF the elementary
principles of a system. that gains in
popularity with increasing force as it
is better understood.
The Advertiser, for many months,
has attempted to publish in It's col
umns, every article obtainabe on the
subject tending to elucidate this wom-
derfully modern system of land reg
istration 1t would be impossible to
discuss the subject thoroughly i'm one
short newspaper article and for that
reason Mr.. Todd has only given gem
eral view of the system with the nten-
tion OF contributing from time to time
series OF articles explaining the de-
tails.
The system should be understood by
every landowner and every prospec-
tive landowner in this state. \ thor
ough understanding is essential before
it can ever become part of our State
government, /; is certain TO become
part and the sooner the better. II is
gradually becoming world wide sys-
TEN and wherever used is highly
praised. That our next legislature
Will meet. consider the subject few
hours ana proceed to enact Il law es-
tabliShing the system i'm this State is
an impossibility. The movement is too
revolutionary i'm form and the results
are too intricate in nature to permit
of hGsty action.
Once established legally the Torrens
System is simplicity itself. Besides
giving a simple mode of land regis
tration it is. as Mr. Todd terSely eX-
presses it, "A system to render the title
to land transferable with certainty.
CELEBRITY, ease, and cheapness." With
certainty I'm that. the title once estab-
lished and officially stamped it can
never be altered With celebrity in
that, whereas under the present sys-
tenn days or even months are neces-
sary to establish rights to title, under
this system a few h.:lutes only are
required. With ease in that, the hours
and days spent tediously ransacking
the old dusty records are eliminated.
Its cheapness is the clearest favora-
he point. The lawyers fee for such
work becomes thing of the past The
lawyer reaDs portion of the general
prosperity that results from an intro
duction OF this system.

THE ONE REAL ISSUE.

When one SINNERS the issues of
the present guhernatorial campaign
down to a point, there does not seem
TO be very many of them joined save
the one broad, general proposition
should be RELOCATED in the common
wealth. That such lobbyists as joe
Terrell, should be shorn of the power
Of shaping the executive policy, etc.
Governor Brown has been so very
inactive, such perfect perfunctory
sort of a dummy in the governors Of
fee, that his administration has only
become famous for one outlined pol
icy and that one is the reduction Of
the members of the railroad commits
sion and the narrowing of the scope
and powers of that body.
Without advancing one single
sound reason for the necessity OF
such legislation, Governor Brown in
both of his messages recommended
such a course and his followers in
both houses tsoody ready ~ dc his id
ding and would have done 50, had
not the staunch and conservative
Hoke Smith members of that body
prevented,
Now why should the people OF
Georgia desire to curtail the powers
of the railroad dymmission? Is
there any public service concerns in
the state coming under the supervis-
ion of that body that should not do
so and as as a matter of fact should
not all such corporations be subject
to state supervision? Does it not
stand to reason that people, the rank
and file-the great common people
of the state derive a great benefit
from the fact that the state does, to
certain extent supervise these con-
Germs? When it is recalled that dur
ing last year alone over 5000 com
plants were handled by the commits
sion touching every conceivable griev
ance in the railroads and other cor
porations, it ought MT TO be difficult
to see how absurd is this Theory #
reducing the size and the powers of
that body Georgia has two hundred
ana twenty seven public service cor
porations who levy an annual tax up
II her people of over fifty millions OF
dollars each year and surely the peo-
pie deserve and should have their
interests safe guarded as they are
today, through the good offices Of.
Hon. ioke Smith. 1t begins to look
as if the railroad commission is the
particular attack Of the Brown
forces, and the fact that the peoples
will expressed in the legislature by
its chosen representatives is behind
mat body as it is row organized S
self manifest,
Georgia is a progressive state. her
people are enterprising and energet-
ic and under the matchless leader
sAip Of the Honorable Hoke Smith,
she must keep in the front rank of
the progressive democracy, which is
net characterized by such acts of de-
cadence as would be the case in the
reduction of the number of railroad
commissioners and the abbreviation
of the powers of that body.
