VIKINGS Made EeesWax.

About eight years ago at Oseberg.
near Tonsberg, Norway, there was un-
earthed a ship Of the early Viking
period. It was completely buried in
the earth, and when disinte-red was
found to belong to the grave Of Vi
king queen, who died about 4. D. SUI.
Horses, carriages, and sledges were
also discovered in the grave, together
with all kinds of household furniture
and utensils and personal ornaments,
the whole forming picture OF the
state Of northern civilization centu-
ries ago. Among the other articles
found were two dark rectangular
masses, which proved to be wax that
had apparently been used for the wax
ing Of sewing thread. This wax has
recently been chemically examined by
Dr.. J. Sebelien, who found that its
specific gravity and its melting-point
agreed with that Of the beeswax OF
the present day.

SUMTER, S. c.

Hon. R. G.. Rhett may become a
candidate for congress, and If
he does, there is likely to be a
hard fight with the chances IN
favor of Rhett. He is recog-
nized as 'sa big man" is person
ally popular throughout the
State, and in Charleston where
the largest vote is polled he is
very strong. Mr.. Rhett and
Congressman Whaley are broth
ers-in-law and this relationship
may preclude him from entering
the race, unless the demand for
his services is so strong from
the district that he will feel com
pelled to become a candidate.
We have also heard that there
is a probability of Hon. Edward
J. Dennis making another effort
to win the congressional prize,
altho' he has not said so publicly.
His friends think he should come
again because of the splendid
fight he made last summer, at
any rate, the announcement OF
Mr.. Morgan Of Greeuviile at
this time appears to Us 10 be i
signal for an early opening Of
political discussion.

THE SOUTH REBUFFED AGAIN.

The Congress has at last XIII
ed the Henry Bill which sought
to have the Federal government
aid the Southern farmer by an
especially authorized issue OF
$3.50, 900, 900 in currency put into
Southern banks for the purpose
of relieving the situation. Con
gressman Henry of Texas has
been ridiculed, criticised, and
abused because he introduced
such a proposition, and ever
some of the newspapers in the
South joined in the TRADE. The
Henry Bill had for it's purpose
lust what the advocates Of the
South Carolina legislature had
when they introduced a measure
to provide for a bond issue &c
handle the crop of this State,
and the same interests thai
choked the South Carolina prop
osition continued their work
right on with congress. The re-
lief sought by the Henry Bill
was to the nation what the bono
bill was intended for the State
the lifting the burden Of oppres
sion from those who could moi
lift it from themselves.
South Carolina wanted to have
the credit Of the State to helE
her people, and Mr.. Henry
wanted the credit of the natlor
for the same purpose, but nelthe
State or Nation was responsive
to the, needs of the suffering

GIVE TIE ADMINISTRATION A CHANCE

GIVE TIE ADMINISTRATION A CHANCE
It will not be long before the
State administration will be In
new control, but before this
event has taken place there is a
disposition to load up the IN
coming administration with var
ious policies. It seems to US
that it would be far better to
withhold suggestions until the
new governor has had an oppor-
tunity to get acquainted with
the Office to which he has been
chosen by the people, than to
embarass him at the threshold
with all manner of theories. The
advocates of compulsory school,
attendance are lnsistent upon
the new administration TO have
enacted laws to force attendance
in the public schools, but none,
so far as we have seen, have
made any effort to sho" how
this can be done with the pres
ent financial means. It's a well
known fact that our school sys'
tenn is hanpered by a lack OF
funds. it is also we'll known that
the pay of teachers is inadequate
Because CT the lack of funds
many OF the schools in the coun'
try must run on short terms and
small pay for the teachers; in
many Of the towns the school
taxes are burdensome, and II the
State adopts the policy OF com
puisory attendance under these
conditions, in our opinion, il
will only add to the barden OF
shorten the school term.

SPIRIT WILLING, But FLESH WEAK.

Senator Christensen of Beau
fort, in an address before the
Peoples Forum in Charleston
Sun lay night advocated a State
Board of Charities, and suggest
ed such a Board can be main
tanned for 1000 a year. The
Board to be composed of five
members appointed by the Gov
ernor with Secretary. The
secretary to have a salary of
$4,000 a year, and the board to
receive a per diem of S. per day
while engaged in their official
duties. The scheme is no. doubt
a good one, and if put into oper-
alton it would greatly improve
the penal, and charitable instl-
tutions of the State, but the mat
ter resolves itself down to hnan-
cial ability. Can the State at
this time create new offices? The
motives prompting the Beaufort
Senator are commendable and
worthy of serious consideration
when the State is in condition TO
spend money on so good cause.
Similar boards are in operation
in other States, and they are DO.

The next Speaker of the House

legislature convenes next month
will be Hon. James A Hoyt,
with a probability of no opposi-
ton. Mr.. Hoyt has been the
Clerk of the House Of Represen-
tatives for the past several
years, but at the recent election
he was chosen a member Of the
House from Richland. His ex-
perience at the desk and by the
side of Speaker Mendal Smith,

OUR GOVERNMENT DOES EoT HELP.

Russia is offering 81 cents a
pound for cotton. but without
transportation facilities. it does
this country very little good. 1t
does seem to us With the British
navy clearing away the German
navy that has been a menace to
commerce, our government can
devise a means of getting the
cotton product across the water
and thereby open up a market
for the product which lies here
choking our commercial, agri
cultural. and industrial interests
to death. Instead of discussing
the building of war ships, the
government should either buy
or rent the hundreds of freight
vessels lying idle at..our ports, to
carry our cotton to Russia and
Germany where the demand is
great. We have the cotton and the
people abroad, are needing it,
ships are tied up at wharves Or
lying at anchor in America, and
vet, Notwithstanding the product
not contraband, our government
has done nothing to relieve the
stagnation. Why cannot the
United States government ind
a means to convey the product
of this country to Europe as
we'll as means are provided to
convey foodstuffs to bellgents,
and money to stranded Amerl-
cans?
We recall how quick the gov
ernment gave relief to those
caught in the war zone when the
banks of Europe declined to hon
or letters of credit, and we daily
read where ships are being load
ed with food and clothing
for the suffering B e g a MS,

opinion that the matter OF re-

tior, to the voters ina speclai

be dangerous. He seems to
think that the liquor trust, as
he terms it, may induce the ne

We agree with Mr. Harley as

Influenced largely by their

We do not think q referendum

It will cause a needless amount

the. question with its agitation
and discussion will remain open
TO be a constant source OF an

it would ne far better for the
peace and harmony Of the State

the body constituted for thf
making of laws, and if a major
ity of the general assembly think
the time has arrived for a State

There has not been a session
OF the general assembly for
years without the liquor ques
ton in some form or another,
aud it is about time for the
minds of the legislators to be
concentrated on matters; OF at
least equal Importance. We
should hail with delight the
time when this never ceaslng
agitation will be given a rest,
but if the masses are really de-
sirous for a statewide prohlol-
tion law they can much better
make the same known to their
representatives through signed
petitions than through petitions
to have the question submitted
to a special election.
Our understanding of the
Webb Act that Mr.. Harley re-
fers to, if adopted in this state.
will have the effect ofprotecting
the dry counties from shipments
of liquor into them, and it will
also protect the wet counties
from shipments to individuals
who may use it for unlawful
purposes. If our understanding
of this Act is correct there can
be no objection and it has our
approval. But if the Webb Act
prohibits the shipment into the
state eforilegitimatepurposes,t then
the question of personal rights
becomes involved, and likely to
provoke honest differences OF
opinion.
We regard it unfortunate for
this question to be agltated at
this time. especially since a
large majority of the counties
are now under prohibition laws;
| it does seem to us the new ad'
ministration should be given an
opportunity to enforce the laws
we already have, and then, II Ii

electorate will result in a major
ity of the votes cast for abolish
