We have no criticism Of anything
that Senator Tillman has said on the
mileage question. On the contrary we
agree substantially with all the sena-
tor says, including that about railroad
attorneys getting themselves elected to
the general assembly by the people
for the purpose Of representing the
corporations in whose pay they are.
The thing is so common that 1t has
long since become a matter Of course.
But nevertheless We are led to Won
der when Senator Gilman began to
discover these things, and whether il
as in old times he had been able to
come through from Washington on
free passes without having to bother
with this matter of domestic mileage,
would he have thought Of these things
now.

vorable, all will soon be up with their
work

- Johnston. correspondence Of the
Edgefield Advertiser: 1.-THE county
fair given here last week under he
auspices of the D. Of c.. and coached
by Miss Paul Of Morristown, Pa, was
considered by all who attended as a
very bright and amusing affair On
Thursday evening the affair was re-
peated for the benefit If those who
had not seen 1t, and the door receipts
LOT the evenings amounted to $135. -
The County Fair entertainment to
be presented next Thursday and Fri
day nights will be In full readiness on
time As a matter Of fact in case of
emergency, the entertainment could be
presented quite creditably now-this
evening. Some of those in charge al
lowed themselves to become little
discouraged at the outset. The large
number of people involved in the pre-
sentation, nearly If not quite 200 seem
to uphold them. They thought 1t i'm
possible to bring the confusion at first
apparent, into order. But now all that
has been forgotten and everything is
working smoothly-so smoothly in fact
that those who were doubtful are Won
dering why they had doubts. The la
dies are expecting big audience.
That the town will turn out almost SOL
idly seems certain and then 1t Is ex-
pected that there will be many visitors
from surrounding towns and from the
country generally. The occasion prom
ises lots Of fun. fr,,r ,-:.iI -.ar .a.

Few individuals attain to the honor
Of having their portraits printed In the
Youths Companion. That honor has
fallen to Hon. E. Y. Webb; but as the
result of an error, the brilliant con-
gresham is credited to South Caro-
lima. However, no harm has been
done. South Carolina is willing to
stand for Mr.. Webb all right, and
most people who know and admire
this gentleman will agree that in the
Companions error there is something
complimentary not only to him; but
to both South Carolina and North
Carolina.

It was announced yesterday that

The United States senate now COM
plete, stands As Republicans and 81
Democrats. This is probably about the
right proportion for the most effective
service. Too large majority would be
more difficult to govern, maybe; but at
the same time we fear that some Of the
Democrats may be tempted to go back
on the party at critical moments. Or
dinari!y senators are difficult to handle.

Albert Warren Is Trans

Montgomery, January S.-(Special)-Ac-

ment, Alabama National Guards, Albert
Warren was carried to Troy by Sheriff
w. A. Mcbride of Pike county this after
noon to stand trial Thursday for crimin-
ally assaulting Miss Alice Graves al
Brundidge December 2S.
Fears that citizens of Brundidge would
attempt to take Warren from the sheriff
and lynch him caused Governor O'Nea
to issue an order to the military com
pany to go with the prisoner, and they
left on the train at o'clock. The sol
diers will guard the jail at Troy during
Thursday morning and longer If neces-
sary.
Warren was indicted by a special grand
jury Tuesday and will be tried at specia
session of the circuit court Thursday. A
telephone order for the removal of War
rcn to Pnke county was given to Sheriff
Hood of Montgomery county Tuesday, but
he refused to act until he had received
instructions and consulted Governor
O'Neal. A conference between the COVER

of Pike county resulted in the order.
