South Cardinals funny Governor.
(Atlanta ConstitutiOn.)

The Governor OF South Carolina is
evidences Of this peculiar gift since
assuming Office. Some Of his humor
Is entirely beyond the reach Of his
doting constituents, and leaves them
puzzled.
One Of the perfectly killing practi,
cal jokes Of the South Carolina Elk,
ecutive was to fire the commission
charged with winding-up the affairs
of the old State dispcnsary.
Not satisfied with the joke itself,
he wrote a letter to accompany It,
a kind Of illustrated diagram, as it
were. In it he faccciously referred
to the fired gentlemen, who are said
to be among the most capable and
honest citizens of the State, as in
capable Of responsibility, and charg-
ed them with neglect Of duty.
1t was a great joke. Ha! ha!
The Legislature had appointed a COM
mittce to Investigate the commission.
'They are mine enemies" said the
Governor. "Do you think | will ~
prove the creation Of such a body to
investigate the commission any my
self? Not by a jug full"
So the ~dispcnsary commission was
booted out of Office without a hear
ing. The only explanation given

Following the war Judge Pope re-
turned home with his comrades to
begin the work Of rebuilding the lost
tun OF his State. He took up
the study Of law where he had left
off to heed the bugle's call to arms,
and in 1866 he was admitted to
practice in the law and equity
courts, and shortly afterwards in the
United States Courts. He began the
practice Of his profession in New
berry. and was remarkably success
full from the beginning.
His public service in civil life be-
gan in 1865, when he was elected by
the Legislature district Judge for
N~ewberry county, assuming the du-
ties of the position the year follow
ing, and continuing to serve in this
capacity until he was ousted by the
~carpet-bag government in 1868. 1t
Is said that the distinguished ability
WITH which he performed the duties
of this tirst judicial position was evil
denced by the fact that there was not
a single appeal from his decisions.
In 1877 Judge Pope had three
high honors conferred upon him
he was made a brigadier general of
militia by Governor Hampton: he
was chosen a member Of the board
of trustees Of Newberry College, a
Lutheran institution, although Judge
Pope was a Baptist, and he was
elected a member Of the Legislature
from Newberry county. He served
In the House of Representatives dur
ing the session of 1877-'7S, where he
came into prominence by the vigo.-
Gus stand which he took in regard
to certain bonded Indebtedness of
the State. AS the result Of his ac-
tivity and the thorough knowledge
Of this subject which he displayed,
and the earnestness and eloquence
with which he pressed his position in
the legislative halls, he was chosen
one Of the assistant counsel to aid
the Attorney General in the bond
cases, argued first in 1878, and then
appealed to the Supreme Court,
which sustained the position taken
by Judge Pope, saving the State a
million and a half dollars.
Judge Pope returned from the Leg
islature to give his time to his law
business in Newberry. but in 1888
was elected to the State Senate,
where he served for two ears.
While In the Senate he was an earn
est advocate of the policies which
were later incorporated into the Far
mers' Movement, not the least Of
which was the establishment OF Glenn
son College. In 1890 he was a can
didate for Attorney General on the
ticket headed by Benjamin r. Till
man, and he was one Of the chief
figures in the stirring scenes of that
political campaign. He was elected
by an overwhelming majority and
served as Attorney General until
chosen Associate Justice of the ST.
premc Court.
