C. : THURSDAY JUKE 23, it) 10 THE LEGISLATURE. Why It is Important to Elect Good, Men as Lawmakers. Twenty five years ago when the hue and cry was raised in This State that "ring rule" was in the ascendency, one of the little side yelps was that Charleston county had too much power in the Legislature, and was ruling the Commonwealth. That Charleston county had more power than other counties was true, but the explanation in the main part of it was plain. Beginning with 1878 or 1880, when the Democrats regained control in Charleston, the county sent to the Legislature such men as the late Charles H. Simon ton, Edward McCrady, Rudolph Seiglintf, George Land) Buist, Augustine Simons, John F. Kieken and Simeon Hvde, and kept them year al ter year and term after term. There were few weak men in the Charleston delegation in those days and any of the men named would have been prominent and influential in the Congress of the I'oifo/I Sit. fit till 111 Sit !1K tin.*v were in the legislature!. ()f course they exerted immense power. Trained brains can't be kept down anywhere. Other counties sent able men, but it was seldom that one of their represent at iqt s remained in office; more I ban t wo or four years. After ls'.io Charleston ceased to send powerful delegations, though a t ew good men were b 'altered in them, consequently t he count v's influence decreased. Spartanburg county, which has twice the Democratic vote that Charleston has, commands 1 - Iw. I ...r J llilK' lUOle IIUUH'IIW' III mi ur^islature that docs the average county for the reason that no Spartanburg man serves more than two tonus, and tho really bijx men of the county, barring raro exceptions, refuse to j^o into politics. A strong delegation in tho 1 -otiislat u re is of ureal value to a county, and a week delegation is a handicap to it This applies not only to politieial affairs, but a I s? i to business. Were the State about to establish a new college or other institution, the county without strong men in the Legislature would have little chance to secure it. Some of these days, five years or twentyfive years hence, South Carolina rn.'iv ndnnt a nolicv State; it is the starting and creating county with influential legislators who will have the better chance to obtain a part of the assistance first. The Legislature is the most, important body in the State. We laugh at it and make jokes at its expense, but it is the real government of the State, it is the starting and creating {mint in the State, county and city government, and nowhere else can a man do so much for bis jM'Ople as there. No man is re Hir> a wormy ciiizcn u iuimhw selfishness prevents him from running for the Legislature, and the truth is that the man who is too I>ito go into ik?!itic*s is actually too small. What tin* people ought to learn is th;?t when men of character and hrainft offer for the Legislature, t.hev confer a favor (lfh>11 the people and the voters ought to encourage such men to enter the primaries. Such men do not like to run for office, cause they resent being placed in th?' |M?siliun of beggars when they know it to l>c. a false posi lion. At tin- same time, tin* best men arc those who will serve their county ;tn<l their State, ,however they are made to appear t)mt thev ar?* seeking pre ferment though they know that they are dointf nothing of the kind.?

Simmon gathered at his hospitable ho i u in tho Ambler section of 1,0 county, to do homage to their .parents. It was an i al day, a pleasant crowd a' 1 an enjoyable time. Asi(lt> fl'i .11 f.hn fnni. ! ily t her were present Mrs. E. J. Youn, jlocxl, Mi*s. Dorsey Youn blood, J. E. Medlin and dau<>,itei\ Miss Sunie, and son, Robert, and Miss Lizzie Si'unions the only sister of I H. Simmons. One of Mi. Simmons, children, Mrs. Mary Finley. of Greenville county, was unable to be present. The morning was spent in pleasant conversation and singing. Praver was offered by Bro. J. E. Medlin, the guests were marshalled under the spreading oaks where a long table was set with all the substantial as well as the delicacies of the season and each and every one did luiiijuoui/i; iu tin; iu|;ani. Those of the children presont were: J. D., Mrs. Texie Finley, S. L., J. L., and Mrs. Martha Ho'der, together with their families. After dinner, Mr. J. K. Med] i 11 made a good talk on the; beauty and harmony of dwelling together in peace and contentment and iii the fear of the Lord, and eulogized the idea of the family reunion, drawing a comparison from the temi>oral gathering to thai of the heavenly hosts who will assemble together and dwell in peace and harmonv and that loye that passeth all understanding. After singing "1 low Finn a Foundation," the children and invited guests ;dl left for their homes, glad of the day thus well spent and wishing for Mr. and Mrs Simmons man v ret urns of the happv occasion.

Cotton is very small and sorry this vear. irenerallv. so far as I know. People want blossoms by the 1th of July, but, if it comes out a heap, it will do well to blossom bv the 4th of August. Some few are not done thinning yet. Corn is just medium irood. Health of this section is ^ood to what it has been. Hen Tillman Winchester has been very sick but is much better now, under the treatment of Dr. J. A. Cannon. We are jrlad to state that Mrs. \V. A. Davis is much bettter at this writing.
