The work of the general assembly * continues to move aloDg slowly. So far, but little legislation has been completed, and tbeie are but few bills > pending that are of vtry general inter Sl. II] a privuie idler iruui uuc ui the York members to The Enquirer, i the opioion is expressed that the gen- < eral assembly is uot likely to adjourn s before the 1st of March. Following is a synopsis of the daily proceedings as i published in the daily papers siuce our I last issue. I ' tuesday, january 26. | In the House?There was a long I discussion on the question of accept- i ing the invitation to Rock Hill, and t the invitation was finally accepted by ( an almost unanimous vote. ] On motion of Mr. Livingston, it was I resolved that no new bills be introduced after February 5, except by I committee. I Mr. Miller of Pickens, introduced a t bill providing that County boards of ) control be allowed to purchase liquor t from distilleries operated in the several counties of the state, under rules prescribed by the state board of control. 1 Mr. Smith of Sumter, introduced a bill providing that all state educational institutions must charge tuition fees ^ of not less than $40 per annum, aud 1 in cases where students are unable to 1 pay cash, they must give their notes. \ Mr. Robinson of Anderson, intro- ^ duced a bill to repeal the law prohibit- s < a a ?:l 1 ? k.. lDg ID6 use Oi iree rnurunu passes vjr certain public officials. Mr. Witherspoon introduced a bill ~ looking to the creation of a board of b three non-applicants from each towu' ship, to pass on pension claims. In the Senate?The adoption of a 1 resolution in favor of Cuban recogni- t tion was about the most important development of the day. In Joint Assembly?Judge Joseph I H. Earle was elected to the United f States senate without opposition, to ( succeed Senator Irby. wednesday, january 27. In the Senate?There was a long < discussion over Mr. Hagsdale's bill ^ forbidding circuit judges the right to ? set aside the verdicts of juries. The bill was finally killed by a vote of 27 ? to 8. Mr. Love voted with the ma- ( jority. A bill to require railroads to carry j bicycles as baggage was read a third time and sent to the house. c In the House.?A bill to make it a t fellony for county boards of commis- ( sioners to exceed the legislative appropriation during any single year was j killed. < The bill to require county officers to * make itemized reports of their receipts , nststsvurk* nf ^OOQ ontl DAoio ot/? 4 k UU OVVVUUV V* ?WW ?UV? ww*Wj V Wi j ( quarterly, passed a second reading. J A special committee of one member ' from each couDty, was appointed to j take charge of all dispensary legisla- S tion. York is represented by Mr. ! Epps. Mr. Gage of Chester, introduced a . * bill to prohibit the manufacture and " sale of cigarettes in this State. t THURSDAY, JANUARY 28. In the House.?After a long dis- i cussion, a bill to allow counties to bor- } , row money from the state was passed j to a third readiug. t There was a long debate on a bill to 6 prohibit the state from employing oth- ' -er than convict labor on the state ^ farms. It was argued that by the em- ployment of free labor, especially during harvest, the state imposed a great hardship upon the private farmers in ] the vicinity of the state furms. Labor , was usually demoralized to such an . extent that farmers found it extremely -difficult to gather their crops. A bill was introduced to require railroads to pay for cross-ties and , other construction material within 60 < -days after delivery. In the event of 8 the failure of the railroad to pay, it ! must forfeit $100 in additiou the contract price of the material delivered. There was introduced a bill to pun- ( isb the charging of usury by a fine of i not less than $100. In the Senate?A bill by Mr. \ o Kagsdale to give private telegraph ] message the right of way over commercial news, was killed by a vote of . 24 to 7. The following from a recent presentment of the Spartanburg grand jury ( was read, and the probability is that favorable actioa will be taken upon it: 1 "We regret very much to notice ! the filthy condition of the floors of the ; corridor, halls and rooms of the court \ house. This building, which cost the I county a large sum of money, should be kept as neat and as clean as the circumstances of its use will admit. Its foul condition is, by no means, in 1 keeping with the dignity or solemnity of its uses for which it was built and ] set apart. Marble floors which cost < large sums of money, have been al- ' most ruined by the stain of tobacco ' spit. . "We recommend that the county board of commissioners have the floors in the building thoroughly cleaned, and place a sufficient number of spit- ! toons, at proper places, for the use of the public, and we further recommend the enactment of a law making it a misdemeanor, punisablc by fine or im- '< prisonment, for any person to injure any public building by spitting on the floors or walls thereof; and that the , presiding judge of any court be empowered to punish summarily, as for a contempt of court, any violation of such law. The punishment of only a few offenders would be necessary." A bill to amend the law in relation to hawkers and peddlers, and place the Bame under the control of the county boards of commissioners, passed its third reading. Mr. Buist introduced a bill providiug for all sorts of heavy tines and penalties for iiregularities in primary election. A County "Legislature."?Geo. VV. Gage, Esq., has prepared and introluced a bill in the house of representatives on the subject of county government. This bill has two fundamental objects in view: U ? 5o? /\ ?v?it Via o/ntnenin />nt 1 UU UIOL 19| W puv IIIC gvv^l UU1VIJI jf the couuties iu the hauds of the jounty board of commissioners, and not in the hands of the delegation in :he legislature. The second is, to save an enormous imount of local legislation which is lone every year at the expense of the state. The new bill attempts to compass ihese euds by giving the county board full jurisdiction over roads, streams, Fences, public buildings, the poor, ;ame and fish; and by giving the >oard power to pass ordinances touchng these matters and many oth;r matters, amongst them the power x> change or fix voting precincts, the sower to change or fix the compensa:ion of couuty officers. The board already has the exclusive axing power for county purposes, a lower higher than any other, and ;o give it the additional powers proposed by the new bill is but to increase ,he efficiency to give good home rule. ?Chester Reporter.

A Snare And Delusion. IF you have taken out a life insurance policy in an Old Line high price "level premium" company with the idea that you would at sometime in the future, while you yet drew the breath of life, receive substantial cash returns or "big dividends," we are here to tell you that you will be disappointed. Your policy will prove a snare and a delusion. It is all right for protection for your wife and children, as they will receive the face of the policy in case of your death, as they would also in a company that charges you half as much. A life insurance policy isa fraud as an investment for a living man, and is the greatest blessing of which we or anybody else has any knowledge as a means of protecting the widow and orphans, after the breadwinner has been removed by death. If You Will Lay Aside Your Prejudice AND COME to us with a desire to learn why it is not to your interest to carry high priced iusurance, and how we can furnish you just as safe insurance for at least 40 per cent, a year less than the other costs, we are sure we can show you to vour satisfaction that the MUTUAL RESERVE FUND LIFE ASSOCIATION of New York does business on a plan that is absolutely safe, and will protect your loved ones even better than iinui o rfl ot ouon a crraator onst to to you. Of course if you are too prejudiced to investigate and imagine that the high price you are now paying makes yonr insurance better or safer, or better than it would be at less cost, we can't do anything for you ; but will be forced to let you go on until time, the crucial tester, convinces you, against your will, that you have been deceived. If You Have No Insurance, And think you should have, we would be pleased to explain the Mutual Reserve System to you. Th^ Mutual Reserve is the largest and strongest natural premium company in the world, and the fourth largest of ANY KIND. It has paid about $550,000 to the widows and orphans of deceased policy-holders in South Carlina alone, during the past twelve years, and if all the insurance now carried in old line companies in the state was in the Mutual Reserve, not less than $400,000, which now annually goes into the coffers of the former, would be left in the state to help relieve the hard times about which we hear so much.

Wilkerson was published in the Enquirer in March, 1891, relative to the merits and value of the GENUINE CORBIN DISK HARROW. The statements were correct then and are now: Hickory Grove, March 23, 1891. Mr. Sam M. Grist, Yorkville, S. C.: Dear Sir?I bought a No. 7 Corbin Disk Harrow from you in October, 1889. I was delighted with it the first time I tried it. I now consider it an indispensable implement or the-farm.. No farmer who looks after his own interest can afford to be wimout 11. i n give an itiea ui its vaiu? ni this time, when every farmer is so far behind with his work, I will say that I can take my Harrow, with one hand and four mules, and put 300 or 400 pounds weight on the Harrow, and break eight acres of cornstalk, cottonstalk or stubble land in one day, and prepare it deeper and better in every way than can be done with eight mules and eight bands in the ordinary way. [I have a weight box on my Harrow. It is the length of. the beam, and is 9 inches wide at the bottom, 11 at the top, and about 10 inches deep. It is fastened on to the beam with bolts.] Last spring I plowed up my cotton stalks and with the Disk Harrow and two inules, cut the stalks and pulverized my land to the depth of five inches at the saine operation, and at the rate of an acre an hour. Wheat and oats can be put in with it much better than in the ordinary way. One band and two mules is all that is necessary to put in 8 to 10 acres a day. The best prepared land I have ever had was a piece of weed stubble turned in the fall and cut up with the Corbin Harrow in the spring. In conclusion, let me say that the Harrow thoroughly breaks and pulverizes the land and leaves it in a porous condition. Land that has been pulverized with a Corbin Harrow will not bake. Respectfully, W. S. Wilkerson. Now, reader, do you know Mr. Wilkerson ? If yon do, don't you know that he is a truthful and honest man and one of the best, most practical and successful farmers in York county? Don't you know?aren't you absolutely certain?that he would not have made the statements if had not KNOWN tbattbey were correct? If you believe what he says, don't you also believe that you are standing in your own light when you try to farm-without a CORBIN DISK HARROW? Call and see me about one. I have tbem in stock. Sam M.
