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 St.nt.fi that, "rinsr rule" was
in the ascendency, one of the
littleside 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 tne legislature sucn men us
the late Charles H. Simon ton,
Edward McCrady, Rudolph
Seigling, George Lamb Buist,
Augustine Simons, John F.
Picken and Simeon Hyde, and
kept them year after 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 inlluential
in the Congress of the
the United States, just as
they were in the Legislature.
Of 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
representatives remained in office
more t ban t wo or four years.
After 1S!K) Charleston ceased to
send powerful delegations,
+ <r<wul 1111 >11 wprn
UlUll^ll <1 I ^ - V- X,
Scattered in them, consequently
the county's influence decreased.
Spartanburg county, which has
twice the Democratic vote that
Charleston has, commands
little more influence in the Legislature
that does the average
county for the reason that, no
Spartanburg man serves more
than two terms, and the really
big men of the county, barring
rare exceptions, refuse t<> go into
politics.
A strong delegation in the
Legislature is of great value to a J
countv. and a week delegation!
is a handicap to it. This applies I
not only to politicial affairs, but
also 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
may adopt a policy 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 I11(/ >! nt. it and make iokes
at its expense, hut it is the real
government of the State, it is
the starting and creating point
in the State, county and city
government, and nowhere els?*
ran a man do so much for his
people as there. No man is really
a worthv citizen if business
selfishness prevents him from
running for the Legislature,
and the truth is that the man
who is too big to go into jh>1 iti<*s
is actually too small.
What the people ought to
learn is that when men of character
and hrains offer for the
Legislature, they confer a favor
upon the people and the voters
ought to encourage such men to
enter th?* primaries, ttucn men
do not like to run for office, because
they resent bein^ placed
in the position of beggars when
they know it to be a false position.
At the same time, the
beet men are those who will serve
their county and their State,
^however they are made to appear
that they are seeking preferment
though they know that

Dear Sentinel Journal: As I

sleeves, laying back their earjand
walking into it from soon

Cotton is very small and sorry
this year, generally, so far as 1
know. People want blossom*
by the 4th of July, but, if il
comes out a heap, it will do wel
to blossom bv the 4th of Ail

thinning yet.
Corn is just medium trood.
Health of this section is good
to what it has been.
