In his message returning to the
general assembly the general appro-
priation bill with his veto Of a number
of items, Governor Blease had the fol-
lowing to say with reference to Sec
tion As, in which the one mill tax Is
levied: IF it were not for this sec
tion I would have vetoed the entire
appropriation for all the state colleges,
and while this section most assuredly
does not meet with my recommends
ton or my request, yet it Is in the ma
ture Of coming half way, and l Will
have to put up with 1t until next year
when I shall renew my fight, asking
for the full one mill for the free pub
lie schools of South Carolina"
1t was nearly daylight Sunday
morning before the general assembly
got to where 1t could recede from bus
mess and as there were some thirty or
more unsigned acts still in the hands
of the secretary of state, 1t was decid-
ed not to adjourn until after Thurs
day. The recess was necessary In or
der to give the unsigned bills time in
which to become laws without me
signature of the governor.

1t is very evident that Governor
Blease is doing all in his power to
make the question of education-the
liberal support of the common schools
the leading political issue in South
Carolina, and the drift Of his purpose
seems to be in the direction Of cutting
down the large appropriations that are
now going to the higher institutions
The feeling that the higher institu-
tions are getting too much money while
the common schools are getting toe
little is already quite strong, and
anything it is steadily growing strong

Although there has been but little
plowing lately because Of the wet
weather; but few of the farmers have
been idle. They have done more
clearing up Of terraces, branch bot
toms, ditch banks and Drier thickets
generally than for years, and the re-
suit is noticeable in almost every direc-
ton. AS a matter Of fact it is doubt
full as to whether there has really been
a great deal Of loss Of time on account
Of the plowing, especially since the
time has been used so profitably 9TH

From the reports we have seen in
the papers we are unable to form a
satisfactory conclusion as to whether
the electric current is really used for
the torture Of convicts. The testimony
on the subject is more or less confus-
ed. From things that have come out
from time to time, however, the pre-
sumption is such practices are resort
ed to. The idea Of the thing is sim

THE COUNTRY BLACKSMITH

Most Of the changes that occur in
the economic life Of a country are
brought about so slowly and gradually
that the people concerned hardly real
ize them until after they have been
completed and sometimes not even
then. Yet such changes have been in
progress since the early history of the
country, and they are in Hrogress still.
There was in The Enquirer office
yesterday a good, substantial citizen
from the western side of the county,
who Is of a type that seems to be
steadily disappearing and which when
it Is entirely gone will leave the coun-
try poorer than it is now. He Is what
may intelligently and comprehensively
be termed "the old fashioned country
blacksmith"
1t Is not necessary to mention this
gentleman's name further than to say
that he is worthy representative of
the type in question, steady and honest
and as true as the steel he works, and
attached to his trade, not only as
means of livelihood; but because of
generous appreciation of the useful
ness 1t makes him to his fellowman.
There are still others like him; but as
stated they are growing fewer.
Yes, I have all can do" he said.
land more than l really want to do.
My territory extends not less than five
miles in any direction and in some di-
rections eight or nine miles. Some
times they bring me more work than I
can do. and as it is not easy to get re-
liable help in my line at a moments
notice, / have to stand the rush until
can get over 1t. But sometimes am
wondering what they will do when the
old fellows in my line play out There
are no young fellows who want to learn
the trade Of the country blacksmith
and when we drop out, 1t means that
much of the work we now do will SIM
ply not be done. Instead Of taking
many articles that are now easily re-
poired, some ten or fifteen miles to the
nearest town repair shop, people will
just buy new ones, and when it comes
to shoeing farm horses and mules,
people will either have to learn to do
it themselves, or lose lots of time 60
ing to town."
The plant of this old craftsman
is somewhat suggestive Of the time

the penitentiary hosiery mill, and that
institution is to go out Of business on

the hosiery mill was fearful mistake
to begin with and the abolition Of 1t

the general assembly has done at its

KILOHANA CLUB
TAKING Up PLAN
FLOAT in PARADE

After reading Mr.. George G.
Guilds reply to a letter in Sunday s
paper, signed Merchant, and criti-
Ching the Kilohana Art League for
not taking part in the Floral Parade,
| think il necessary that some explain
alton lie made" said Director General
ChillingWorth this morning. In the
first place, | have not criticized the
Art League. At the start |, of course,
expected that an organization OF such
a character would delight in partici-
patton in the parade, as it seemed
to be an affair peculiarly in line with
the objects of such an organization,
as well as with the tastes of it's mem
bers.
"On receiving a note from the Sec
rotary of the league, to the effec. that
the directors had decided that they
cannot this year participate in the
parade l wrote stating that | should
be interested in learning the reasons
for the action of the directors in de-
clining to take part in a celebration
of the kind planned by Hawaii. In
reply, | have received an invitation
to confer with the secretary regard
ing the matter, and shall take The
first opportunity Of dong so. 1t is a
matter of much Importance, Of course,
as public clubs of this character, with
their public spirit, their devotion to
art, their interest in the community
and their influential and able mem
bership, are just the ones We expect
to take the lead. 1t seems to me that
age splendid parade all its own.
Says Mr.. Guild in Error.
Mr.. Guild is quoted in an inter
view this morning to the following eff
feet, in reply to the article of Sun
day. which was signed Merchant:
Every organization mentioned by
Merchant" in his letter is repre-
scented by delegates in the Central I'm
provement Committee which will
have a float in the Floral Parade. The
expense of preparing this float is be-
ing borne by the various organiZa-
tons through the dues paid by their
delegates for membership in the Gen.
trail Improvement Committee.
1.-The criticism of the Kilohana Art
League is particularly unjust for the
reason that the float is to be decor
ated by committee from the Kilo-
hama Club
Nov, the number of organizations
mentioned by Merchant was over a
dozen. I am glad to- be able to say,
from personal knowledge that there
is no intention, at least on the part
of some of these organizations, of
combining on the enterprise of enter.
ing one float, ana paying for il
through dues. Some of the organiZa.
tons in question are planning their
own autos and floats. unless they
have very recently changed their
minds. If they have, and if Mr..
Guilds idea is correct, a new meaning
might be given to the term Honolulu
United. The whole community, clubs
and all, might unite in getting up one
float.
A Suggestion Offered.
However,, that isn't going to be
done. Entries are being recorded
every day, and the parade is going to
be Lig one.

THE NEW ATTACK
ON DIABETES

make 3UO &C.
To physicians-Heat one dram of
above reagent to boiling. Add the
Diabetic specimen by minims until re-
agent is colorless. The number of
minims will indicate the percentage
of sugar. Change the attack-put the
patient on an agent to counterfeit he
patio degeneration. Test again in
twenty days and you will know to a
certainty whether the sugar is de-
creasing or not. Thus no physician
or chemist need be in doubt.
The treatment of Diabetes has
largely been held to Codein. 1t quiets
the patient but the prognosis is ad-
mitted to be hopeless. The new treat
ment, instead of locking up the secre-
tons, as the opium in Codein does, re-
verses the action by reducing hepatic
degeneration, thus permitting the liy-
er to oxidize more of the sugars and
starches. Increasing strength and
gradual recovery or proIongation of
life naturally follows. That the new
agent, Fulton's Diabetic Compound,
does this in many cases, particularly
between the ages of fifty and seventy
can be established in your own labora-
tories by the above formula.
Gradually retire the Codein, giving
a on-habit-forming substitute, if nee.
essary, prescribe the new agent and
IL the patient is of middle age or over
and has recuperative power you can
look for some results in most cases
by the twentieth day. The thirst and
hunger often begin to abate before
the sugar decreases. Thus in many
cases patients know before the tests
are made that they are getting re-
suits. lit does not seem to have much
effect in young cases.)
Fulton's Diabetic Compound is a
mild infusion without opiates. 1t does
not conflict with physicians prescrip-
tons. The substance of the formula
surrounds each bottle.
