HIGH COST OF LIVING.
An Illustration Showing What So
Will Buy of the Farmer.


AT the senate committee hearings
last month in Washington many state
ments were made to show that the in
creased cost OF living was by no means
due to increased prices for farm prod
ucts. one speaker gave an illustra-
lion of the purchasing value of So
He had employed an expert painter
paying him SO q day for eight hours
work. The painter complained of the
high cost of living these days and
that wages were not high enough
The employer then explained to him
what 81 would buy of the farmer and
what he had to produce to pay the
painter one days wages. These were
the articles named: Twelve quarts OF
milk, half n bushel of potatoes. twelve
quarts of onions. two dozens Of eggs,
one and one half pounds of butter. one
and One-half quarts of cream. five
pounds of pork and six pounds of beef
These articles the farmer had to sell
for So to pay the painter one days
wages This is not saying that these
things could have been procured Mt the
retail store for SO. but 1t shows that
something besides farmers prices en-
ters into the high cost of living.

mistaken. This writer remembers to
have seen a test of this question IL
1878, or thereabouts. Judge T. J.
Mackey was presiding over the court.
A case of sensational public interest
had been taken up, and the venire had
been exhausted without completing
the jury panel. Judge Mackey order
ed the sheriff to close the door and
proceed to summon talesmen from the
audience. A representative Of the En-
quirer was present to report the pro-
ceedings, and the judge tried to put
MIN on the jury. The newspaper man
promptly claimed exemption under
the law, and the judge idenying the
claim, the newspaper man showed
him the statute anc maintained his
position. On realizing that he was
whipped, Judge Mackey contented
himself with declaring that although
the statute did except newspaper men,
it was an absurd statute and should
be repealed. However, the statute
has not been repealed unless it has
been done by the present general as
sembly. See Seton 1885 of the 1892
Report of the Code Commissioner and
Section 3704 of the 1910 report. But
say, Carpenter, the legislature that
passed this act may not have intend
ed" to exempt newspaper men from
jury SERVICE and like those sections OF
the constitution in question, these Sec
tions of the code may not mean what
they say.

Lent begins next Wednesday. How
Ash Wednesday and the Lent season
are reckoned seems to be a mystery
to some people. Lent always is reck-
oned from Easter Sunday, but to many
people this is equally mysterious.
Easter Sunday always is the first
Sunday after the first full moon after
the spring exQuinox, March 81. If the
full moon is on Sunday, Easter is the
Sunday following. Easter comes April
16 this year. Lent always is forty
days before Easter. There usually
are SIX Sundays intervening, but they
art not counted in the forty days. This
makes Lent always begin on Ash
Wednesday. 1t always is preceded by
Shrove Tuesday, which is the last day
before Lent.

ton asked for in a previous letter.
The commission held a long session
during the day at which time the re-
port to Gov. Blease was formulated.
1t is expected that the report will

Requested Information.
Governor Blease several days ago
asked that the members of the COM

all of the transactions of the body
and also a copy Of the contract with
the Atlanta firm of lawyers. Ander-
son, Wilson, Fielder and Rountree, and
3. L. Abney, of Columbia, and ". F.
Stevenson, Of Cheraw.
Just why he has held up the act
has caused much speculation. Charles
A. Smith, the lieutenant governor and
president of the senate, before leaV-
ing Columbia, after the adjournment
of the general assembly, appointed
the three members from the senate to
make the Investigation. Speaker Men
del L. Smith, Of the house, did not ap-
point his committee.
Each Waiting on Other?
Some think that Governor Blease
will not approve the act, calling for
the investigation until Mr.. Smith has
named the house members. Speaker
Smith, who was here today, stated
that he would not appoint the mem
bers of the committee from the house
until the act had been approved. He
does not think that he has the right
to appoint until the act has been ap-
proved.

Lancaster, Feb. 25.
Gov. Blease said Saturday that the
receipt by him of the foregoing tele-
gram was the latest, development in
the situation relative to the Horny
court due to convene Monday. The
recommendation referred to by the
chief justice was that the governor
commission Mr.. G. P Quattlebaum, of
the Conway bar as a special judge to
preside at the Horny term on account
of the illness of Judge Klugh. The
court Of general sessions is to sit for
the first three days of the week, the
court Of common pleas for the last
three days, the same judge presiding
ever both courts.

court next week at Abbeville, III his

No Special Judge.
Gov. Blease said that he had not
commissioned as special judge for
the Horny court Attorney G. P. Quat-
tlebaum, Of Conway, whose appoint
ment was suggested by the Conway
bar and recommended by the supreme
cod art, because, as he had notified
Chief Justice Jones, Judge R. E. Copes
is disengaged, and because further
he had found, on examining the roster,
that Judge Memnninger would also be
disengaged.

in these circumstances" said the gov
ernor, @Fto assign to the term a dis
engaged circuit judge, instead of ask
ing me to commission a special Judge;
and I do not propose to interfere with
Chief Justice Jones in the discharge
OF his duty
A Guess Hazarded.
The governor intimated that his
private and unofficial opinion was
that there would be no Horny court
because he believed Chief Justice
Jones would stand pat on his latest
position, that the supreme courts rec
ommendation for the appointment of
Mr.. Quattlebaum is "conclusive and

As to Richland County.
As to the Eichiand county court,
Governor Blease said he did not be-
lieve the supreme court had any right
to assign Judge Copes to preside, upon
Judge Watts departure. Judge
Watts was assigned by the chief JUS
tice,"' he said, ''to hold this term and
my opinion is that when a conflict
with his own circuit necessitates his
departure, that causes the adjourn
ment of the term However, the assign
ment of circuit judges to the various
courts is a matter exclusively within
the province of the supreme court"
Another Week Needed.
Judge Watts, before leaving Colum
bia to hold court at Abbeville, in his
own circuit, made inquiry among the
members Of the bar as to whether the
public business required the continu
ance of the Richland civil court for
another week, and being told that an
other week was needed, consulted
with Chief Justice Jones. The chief
justice announced through Judge
Watts that Judge R. E. Copes, newly
elected and qualified and at present
disengaged, would be assigned to pre-
side for the remaining week of the
term.
