reads and discusses them with his
chum; they are read in the homes
Of the people and afford interesting

NEW JOB FOR j. w. CANFIELD.
Major Kcrr's Opponent Appointed
Auditor for Greenwood,

Columbia, May il. w. Garfield
Is the new auditor for Greenwood
county. Governor Blease late to-day
named Garfield for the position, after
receiving a statement from Garfield
that he would accept. Garfield sue
ceeds the late James d. Watson, no.
tice OF whose death appeared in to-
days papers Mr.. Garfield will serve
until February II, 1913, as the com
mission of Mr.. Watson was issued
February II, 1911, for the succeed
ing two years.
Behind the simple announcement
OF the appointment Of J. w. Garfield
Is d highly interesting story. First of
all, Garfield will have to resign as
magistrate, to which position he was
appointed by Governor Blease, whose
action occasioned a legal battle. 1t
vas J. w. Garfield and Major W.. II.
Kerr who opposed one another for
the magistrates job in Greenwood,
Major Kerr refusing to turn over the
office to the mar named by Governor
Blease.
Governor Blease on March 81 in
formed Major Kerr that 81 have al
ready advised you that your commits
sion has been revoked, and while |
had hoped you would gracefully
retire, l now repeat to you that you
are hereby removed from the office of
magistrate for neglect Of duty" The
Governor then directed Major Kerr
to turn over the affairs Of the office
to ]. w. Garfield. This Major Kerr
refused to do, on the ground that the
appointment Of Garfield had not
been made "by and with the advice
and consent OF the Senate" A legal
argument in full was advanced by
Major Kerr in a letter to the Cover
nor.
The latest development In the case
was the order by Judge Watts, on
April 81, refusing to require Major
Kerr to resign. The title to the Of
flee was not decided by Judge Watts
in the order, and both men are hold
Ing on. With the appointment of
Garfield as auditor the magisterial
situation is relieved. because Mr.. Can
field will resign his commission and
assume the duties Of auditor for
Greenwood county.
No sooner had the death Of the late
auditor been announced than Cover
nor Blease received telephone mes
sages from Greenwood about the an
pointment Of n successor. Among
others suggested was the son Of the
late auditor Of the county. Governor
Blease withheld his decision in the
matter until this afternoon, deeming
1t best to wait for a day or so.
To-day Governor Blease received.

Prof. Twitchcll, State Gcologist.
(Florence Times.)

Prof. Twitchell. OF the South Caro-
lima University, has accepted the Of
fee Of State Gcologist rendered him
by Governor Blease, who vetoed the
provision for the Office and later
found that there was work that
needed to be done, but u~ngraciously
suggests that the geologist must pay
his W expenses, and be prepared
for the abolition Of the office by the
next Genera Assembly. The profess
sor, being a wise man, knowing the
value Of the office t the State, ac-
cepts the strange conditions Of his
appointment. saying that he does so
in order that he might be able to
convince the ignorant State officials
n careless legislators Of the great
value to the people of the State of
this office, which the Governor has
so contcmptuously vetoed. Prof.
Twitchcll may be able to make his
services more conspicuous than Mr..
Sloan did. VINO loved his work and
thought that everybody would have
interest and patriotism enough to
learn what it was, but we doubt if
m man would be able to do better
work than Mr.. Sloan did.

FITTED As TEACHERS
Directors Add New Branch to the
Oskaloosa High School.

In former years graduates OF the
Oskaloosa High school, when, after
receiving their diplomas decided to
make teaching their vocation found
that thoy knew practically nothing
about it. This certainly discouraged
the new teacher and in many cases
they became detected and entered
other work. Hereafter students, who
decide co make school teaching their
profession after graduation will not
have to suffer the disadvantages that
came to their predecessors. A new
branch of study has been introduced
in the Oskaloosa High school that
will fit any student for school teach
ing before the date of graduation
This new work has just been started
and the present class of fifteen mem
bers will be the first OF the kind that
have ever taken similar work In the
local schools. The idea OF hitting
teachers in the public schools has
been agitated over the state for some
time but many schools seemed reluct
ant to- take it up. 1.-THE Oskalooss
school officers are the first In thu
part OF the state to thoroughly invest
igate and take up the new work
The instruction of the student taKe'
place daily and in the oskaioos'
schools taxes the place OF reguia
study. Students of the A Class Wh'
expect to graduate are the only one
eligible to become members OF I'M
class. The work is taken from ne'
book entitled. "The Teacher ana Tn
