VVINNSBORO, S. C.
I Wednesday Pecemfccr 3!. : : liiW)
Col. Lee Hagooi/s many friends
have heard with great sorrow of his
r_ untimely death which occnred on
Thursday night in Sumter from the
effects of an accidental discharge of his
pistol a few days previous. Col. I la
good was in the prime of life, brave,
handsome and honorable. He had for
. year* been connected with the life
insurance business and his genial, engaging
manners made him friends
wherever he went.
Tiffi-se^ent-clections have alarmed
the Republicans, and they are groping1
in the dark recklessly to devise means
for rallying their forces. They 'were
so taken abash by the rebuke of the
people last November, that they are
working most vigorously to regain
their foothold. The President is at
the door of Congress trying to drive
the force bill through and all of his
party men are terribly anxious about
? of fhp
the nitanciai ?uuuu?. ?
v leading Republicans, the mora sensible
ones, sec in the passage of the
force bill the downfall of theG. O. P.;
other?, less sensible, but more tyrannical
and desperate, believe in passing
the bill and rule by the machinery
of the government. The efforts of the
Republicans to allay the popular wrath
against the McKinley bill by shifting
the cause of high prices to other sources
ix a little aaiusiug. It will not begui.U
the people.
It is said that when the "Keform'
State officials reached Columbia au<
bewail to make inquiries about hous<
rent, they discovered that existing
salaries were as small hs they could b<
without subjecting the incumbents v
loss. The Senate and many member
of the Hon e concurred in this >*iew
so the salaries remain unchanged fo
the present. A state officer has t
maiutaiu somewhat more elaborat
style in Columbia than at homo. Th
calls on his purse for subscription
etc are more frequent, and house rer
and necessary expenses are greatc
than in smaller places- Twentr-on
hundred dollars will not go as far i

refuse to contnoute to everything tha
comes along, and refrain from occa
sional "setting' em up tu visum;
statesmen from way back. It is bes
policy to let the salaries alone and pu
in men big" enough to till them.
Th? Session Over.
The lirst session of the present Legit
lature is over, and taken it all in all i
has not clone a great deal to turn thing
upside down and inside out. Th
"movement" ha? boen principally
movement into office, with vigorou
and stout kicking on the part enthus
asts on both sides of the party. Tli
principal leaders of what was thougl
a revolution, after haying inspired
great fuss, hurrahs and dust-biting
during the campaign, have been safel
landed into some office of dignity an
emolument, and it is hoped that the
are satislied. now that their object hs
been attained.
With a few exceptions the Legisl;
ture's work lias not been so l#ad; for
few men in the new party have bee
ktrong enough to do a little thinkin

Columbia's Christmas festivities snf-j
lered a rude shock on Friday morning' I
I
br the announcement of the death of ;
Chief Justice Simpson from heart i
fiihn-#. His health had been irnpairtd |
for some time, but he had fulfilled all J
his public duties with undiminished j
vig^r. and no fears were entertained J
by his friends of a near approach of i
death. !
Juttioc William Dunlap Simpson:
was born in Laurens Couutv Oct. 27,;
I $23. lieceiring his education at the j
South Carolina College he entered the
practice of law with great promise of j
success, and represented his district in j
the Legiilatnre. At the summoning j
to arms he entered the army and had j
I risen to the rank of Lieutenant Colo-j
j nel when lie was elected a member of I
i the Confederate Congress. After the j
j surrender Col. Simpson resumed his j
practice. lie Biade the congressional''
! race against A. S. Wallace in 18G8,
: I
j and won by several thousand votes, j
! but was denied his seat because of his !
i inabilitv to take the test oath.
i When the campaign of 1S7G became i
| a certainty, and the best men of the i
j Siate were selected as candidates Col. j
j Simpson was nominated for Liouten- J
ant Governor. As will be remembered j
?:-?i
j the content was excrc>uugij j
! Hampton van somewhat ahead of his j
ticket, and was chosen by a plurality j
; ?f something over eleven hundred. [
j C?l. Simpson caine next, having: a
plurality of about one-Jiimdresl and
| fifty, while the other State officers had
fctill imaller margins. At the meeting
of the Legislature the Senate stood 18
Republicans. 12 Democrat*, and three
j Democrats, Gary, Todd and Maxwell
! whose seats were contested. "While
> ivs?* snlit
j U1C J1UU3C U1 ? -J
i into two factious, the Senate remained
solid, the Democrats refusing to secede
j in order not to impair their case br
I following the bolting tactics of the
j Macker houfte. Consequently Lieuj
tenant Gorernor Simpson was not
, M*vtfori t<> Twoside over the Senate,
i <
and Gary, Todd and Maxwell were not
, sworn in. During this prolonged
. crisis which lasted from the fourth
Tuesdav in November to the Christt
laas holidays, Lieutenant Governor
, Simpson manifested the greatest fimines*,
declaring in private conversaj
tion His willingness to issue a proclamation
convening the Senate and to
i?<sue writs to elect senators in place oi
. all those, whether Republican 01
j Denocrat, who should refuse to obe\
the call and recognize him as presiding
officer of the Senate. As the
* I Democrat* however were in an un
! doubted minority in this body, iL wai
decided best nut to make this cokj
<Tctut.
In the following April Haves ra
l I m r .
moved the troops from the corridors
of the State House, whereupon Cham
berJain and Gleaves abandoned tlx
0
contest. When Hampton called tin
it extra Session, Lieutenant Governo'
^ Simpson was on hand. The llepubjcan
Senators called on him to take ti?
e
o**h of office. He refused to do so a

was done in short order, while Republican*
were protesting.
