Should be in Force.

What has become of the Torrene
system of registering land titles? The
legislature passed an act making it pos
sible for such a system to be inaugu-
rated, but thus far it appears to be a
dead letter. AS soon as the people re-
alize lust what the law will mean to
them they will demand the system
throughout South Carolina. For the
agricultural or land-owning class this
is one of the most helpful laws enacted
in long time, not only guaranteeing
titles but also reducing the expense
of having titles examined. The law
should be made operative in every
county in the State.

in his hot-house.
Mr.. Hopkins devotes his whole garden
to flower raising, chiefly chrysanthe-

crimson hues even yet make the sight
one of beauty. They also added lot
of nastdrciums for the school children's

and uniformed riders, altogether the
best MiddIetown has seen for many a

One feature that lent a novel charm
to the mile long procession, was the
presence of fully 100 autos with all
lights blazing their brightest. Over
100 mounted horsemen, most of them
carrying torches, formed part OF the
long parade.
Many residences, some Of Republi-
cans, were lighted up and decorated
with flags. The Transcript received
not few compliments for its fine dis
