GEO. R. REMBERT PASSES AWAY.
Candidate for Governor Succumbs to
u Long Illness.

Candidate for Governor Succumbs to
u Long Illness.
Columbia, Nov. Geo. r. REM
bert, Representative in the General
Assembly from Richland county and
a candidate for Governor, died at his
home here to-nig,.t after an illness
Of several weeks. Mr.. Rembert was
3S years OF age. He was born in
Sumter county, but came to Colum-
bia several years ago. He worked
first as mail clerk, then reaI law, and
after being admitted to the bar rose
rapidly in his profession. He served
several terms in the Legislature, be-
ing a member Of that body at the
time OF his death. Since the election
Of Governor Blease Mr.. Rembert had
been administration leader in the
lower house.
Mr.. Rembert married a daughter
of Allen Jones, and, a niece Of Gen.
Willie Jones. She, with five children,
survives. He Is also survived by two
half-brothers, Ed. Rembert, OF Sum-
ter county, and Prof. A. G. Rembert,
Mrs. Lawrence, who lives in the
North.
Mr.. Rembert entered the race for
Governor last spring. AS the result
of strenuous work in behalf OF his
candidacy and the severe strain Of
making speeches in various parts OF
the State he suffered a breakdown in
health, which confined him to his
home. From the first fears were
felt for his recovery; and for me past
week his family had abandonpd hope.
The end came tonight at | o'clock.
Mr.. Rembert was well known
throughout South Carolina, and had
many friends, who will mourn his
death. He was popular in RiChland
county and Columbia, which always
elected him TO the Legislature no
matter who opposed him.

Magistrates in the county, more than
one-half Of whom are situated in
such remote parts Of the county as
to have practically no duties to per-
form. We would, therefore, recon-
mend that the number Of Magis-
istrates be reduced to seven, to be
located as follows: One at Walhalla.
one at Seneca, one at Westminster,
one at Tokeena, one at Salem, one
at Fair Play, and one at Double
Springs.
We recommend that the law be so
changed as to authorize the appoint
ment by the Sheriff Of two Deputy
Sheriffs-one to be located below the
Southern Railway, and the other
above said railway, who shall per-
form all duties now required of Mag
istrate'S constables, rural police and
bailiffs in attendance upon the Cir
cult Court, because we believe such
changes in our peace officers will re-
suit in more efficient, as we'll as
economical administration Of law and
order in our county.
We have, by committee, visited
several times during the year the
county poor farm, and find the in
mates well cared for and contented
,
and the crops are among the best to
be seen in the county. From a con-
servatiVe estimate Of the crops pro-
duced this year we think the institu~
tion Is more than sustaining, and
will net above all expenses approxi-
mately eighteen hundred dollars. We
recommend that the exact amount
when ascertained, be published, Civ
ing itemized statement Of income
and expenses, so that the public may
know just how this institution is be-
ing managed.
We wish to specially commend the
County Board Of Education for the
great interest they are taking in the
bettering OF our common schools and
the great progress they are making
in connection with our new Supervi-
sor or Rural Schools in inducing in
creased attendance OF the children at
the schools, the care exercised over
the sanitary conditions so as to pre-
vent the spread Of contagious and
infectious diseases; the improve
ment OF school buildings, grounds
and equipment, and in many other
ways centering public attention to
all matters pertaining to our free
common schools.
We desire to thank His Honor and
the other officers of the Court for
courtesies extended to us in the dis
charge Of our duties, and ask to be
excused from further attendance
upon the Court.
Respectfully submitted,
G. r. ID. Burns,

In Common Pleas Court
the only case so far called Is that OF
the Southern Power Co. vs. Traxler
and Taylor. This is suit to adjust
dispute over right Of way for power
line OF plaintiff company through
property Of the defendants. The de-
PENDANTS in this case originally asked
$4,000 for the right of way, and a
board of arbitrators fixed the sum at
$4,000. From this finding the power
company appealed. 1t is probable
that the remainder Of to-day-pos-
sibly longer-will be consumed in
this case
