REPRESENTATIVE Whites Letter.

Columbia, S. c., March 1, 1913.
It is with pleasure that / think OF the
time not far distant when we will ceas-
irving to be lawmakers aud try to b.
good citizaus in our respective nelgn-
borhoods. We have done what We
could.
MIR. Mitchum's bill is continued.
Mr. Kennedy has been at work on
his measure providing for the insur,
apce of bonds for drainage and road
building in Douglas and Sandy Grove
Townships, and commission to man
age the same. .,.
I suppose should thank Mr.. Appel
for the prominence given me 10 tne
columns of his paper. Senator Appel'
was mistaken, however, as TO what mas
taken place in the House, which l
would try to explain but for the space
1t would take up, and the time 1t wonlo
take 70 write il, especially since 1 oe-
lieve the Senator wants 10 explain II
himself. Nevertheless, I wilt say thus
much, Senator Appelt-even while mis-
own bill was pending in the House
smuggled through an amendment on
another measure and that in such a
way that it WAS was never read 10 my
bearing and the records bear me out
that it was never passed through the
House. My bill requiring bond in cases
Of appeal has been continued until the
next session.
What We lacked in passing bills we
made it up in killing noxious measures.
Very respectfully,
BOB WHITE.

Scot Free.

The expression 'scot Free" which IS
In use every day, harks back to the
times of Scottish romance and tragedy
so luminously described by Sir waiter
Scott in THE Andquary' and "koo
Roy" In these stirring tales we are
told Of one form Of Scottish trials CIV
en- certain offenders Of justice. lie
who had broken the law was divested
Of all Of his clothing and placed at
certain distance from archers who
had bows and arrows ready. waiting
the command, Fire. When the COM
mand was given the man under indict-
ment would begin running and the
archers would commence firing. and
If in running this gantlet none OF the
arrows hit him he was allowed to go
scot free.

CRANE co. HAS NO
PRIVATE OFFICES

In this happy age of democratic spirit.
when the whole world is being flooded
with the doctrine of Jefferson, it is some
what timely to call attention to a policy
OF Crane company established in the early
days Of that firm.
Ihat is to say, there are no private Of
fees In any of the plants of Crane com
pany In beginning that giant business,
which is one of the greatest and most
successful supply plants this country has
ever experienced, the officers are always
available to the people. The latchstring
hangs out. The door is wide open. From
the desks there radate good cheer and
welcome. Callers upon Maj. William IL.
kettig find that true. There he works
behind desk costing, roughly speaking.
about $40. Surrounded by a staff always
in view he handles the affairs of the local
company with fine results. He was asked
about the absence of private offices and
remarked:
In all the stores of Crane COMPANY NO
one has private office. That was q
hobby of Mr.. Crane, who founded the
firm. lie was always available A street
wag could see him as easily and as quickly
as merchant prince. He was open and
above board. In none of his stores would
he ever permit any private carpeted Of
fces. Mr.. Crane was a democrat and be-
