The Torrens system.

An effort was made during the ses-
sion of the legislature to pass a law
similar to that known as the, Torrens
system of registering titles to real
estate, which is now in operation in
some other States. The measure was
continued to the next session, but our
prediction is that the Torrens system
will yet be adopted in South Carolina.
1t saves much confusion and expense
when real estate is mortgaged or con-
veyed to another person. Under the
present system of recording titles,
every time a land owner borrows
money upon his real estate the expense
of making an abstract of title is in
Cured, especiallyif if the loan is obtained
from different source each time. Ac-
cording to our understanding of the
Torrens system, certificate from the
clerk of court as to the status of the
title, etc.. is all that is necessary.
Whenever measure that has real
merit in it is introduced in the legisla-
ture sentiment in its favor continues to
grow until it finally becomes a law.
So it will be with the adoption of the
Torrens system.

Setting Things to Right.

1t will take Governor Manning some
time to set things right, but theh has made
good start. The thorough investiga-
tion of the asylum, with the dismissal
of the entire board of regents, is the
right step toward putting that institu-
tuition on proper basis.
The home in Columbia for Confede-
rate soldiers has for several years been
constantly before the public on account
of friction among those in charge.
Governor Manning has taken hold of
this institution with a firm grip and
will also straighten out its affairs.
Doubtless other matters of similar
nature will come up from time to time,
and the governor has shown that he
has both the courage and the execu-
tive ability to handle them wisely.

Gave Good Advice.

In spite of his politics, the Hon.
William Howard Taft made good
president and he is still giving advice
along the right line. In an address at
Morristown, New Jersey, a few days
ago, Mr.. Taft, in referring to the seri-
GUS invasion of the rights of America
as neutral nation by the warning ma
tions of Europe said, in part:
"When the President shall act, we
must stand by him to the end. In this
determination we may be sure that all
will join, no matter what their previous
views, no matter what their European
origin. All will forget their differences
in self-sacrifcing loyalty to our com
mon flag and our common country.
This admonition is fifty spoken. We
do not believe that this country is on
the verge of war, nor will it be if
President Wilson can devise honorable
means of keeping out of the conflict. Yet
lit must be indeed reassuring to Mr..
Wilson to have so excellent an author
ity as Mr., Taft exhort the people toloy-
atty to the President.

yery Profitable Session.

There is generally feeling of relief
when the legislature adjourns, which
has been due possibly to the fact that
the people have received but little
real value for the money expended.
This has been particularly true for the
past four years, when the legislature
was divided by partisan politics. How
ever, new day has dawned. We have
entered upon a new dispensation. The
session of the legislature just closed
has been the most profitable session
held in decade or more. Not a few
politicians and demagogues were left
at home and progressive. right-think-
ing young men were sent in their
places. Then, too, the elimination of
the old Objectionable element enabled
men of experience to accomplish some
thing for the State. More constructive
measures have become law than here
tofore seemed possible to enact at one
session. This was made possible by the
utmost harmony that characterized
the session and also through the help
full cooperation of the governor.

Cotton May be classed as contraband.

Those who have decided to plant
largely of cotton this year, being en-
couraged to enlarge their area on ac-
count of the recent rise in price, would
do we'll to revise their plans. 1t is
highly probable that cotton will be
classed as contraband, and that being
the case there will be a considerable
decrease in the exports. A decrease
in the supply of the raw material going
abroad will cause large surplus to be
carried into the next crop, and should
large supply of old cotton be availa-
BILE next fall, with an average yield for
1915, it is not reasonable to expect the
staple to bringa profitable price. So
much is uncertain about the returns
from the 1915 crop that the wise far
mer will curtail the acreage, devoting
more time to food crops.

WINSOME HELEN is
SENT BACK TO JAIL
Miss Bass, Known i'm This City, Held
for Superior Court in
Hartford.

Helen Bass who several weeks ago
CITY where she was arrested for Inert
and who in court told a piteous story
about being lured from New York by
AL Herman, was released from jail in
Hartford this week and yesterday was
before the police court there. charged
with theft. Probable cause was found
and she was bound over to the next
term of the superior court and went
back to Jail in lieu of bonds
In this city Helen stole several ar
ticles from Mrs. Mettey, the police
matron. She had a winsome way and
was an attractive girl. From her
story it was thought that Herman
might be convicted under the Mann
white slave act, but it was later found
that he was not guilty of that offense.
Herman, however, was sentenced to
Jail and is still incarcerated.
The Bass girl completely buncoed
locel people for a while. she is a
Jewess and some people of her re-
ligion in this city took up T. collec-
ton to pay her fine. Before the
money was turned over however, it
was found that the girls reputation
was of very sonbre hue and that
the Hartford police were waiting for
her for theft in that city. The fine
was never paid.
The crime with which Helen was
charged in Hartford was that on
March % she entered the Bond hotel
and demanded her travelling bag, ex
plaining that she had lost her check.
She identified a bag as hers and dis
appeared. subsequently A. ". Schell,
of Cincinnati, looked for his bag at
the office and found it was gone. In
vestigation showed that the girl had
taken it and pawned much of it's con-
tents The bag was valued at $12 and
the contents at So.
