As said by on !41r Mf.Mahari, "no stale in-t.tu- da tion should be beyond state con- N< ^ro! " Another trouble is tlie | /a,'l ill i' ~:o??ent system of ? pport encourages the rankest nd of extravagance. The gradilly increasing receipts from e fertilizer lax places at the mmand of the authorities of e institution far more money an is needed or can be judi ausly used. The college should > supported out ol the Slate sasury, just as other state in itulions are maintained. Let e Legislature appropriate anlally for Cletnson what is needI for its proper support, no ore and no less. It would also be i well tor the next Legislature investigate present conditi ins the college, tor where there is much smoke there is bound' be some tire. nUHAL POLICE. A proposition to inaugurate a stein of rural police, as a proction to the women of the conn y, is being agitated by the press the state. The movement was arted, we believe, by the News id Courier and it is meeting ith much favor. All agiee that ie theory is right, but some excess doubt as to the praoticabily of the proposed plan. Of >urse *o properly police the rnil districts of South Carolina, ould cost considerable money, ut the expense, however great, lould not deter the legislature om establishing the system if itisfied that it will accomplish le end det-iied. Something must 3 done to protect the wives and lughters oi our citizens whose ames are in sparsely settled secons of the state. The plan as suggested by the ews and Courier is as follows: "Half a d'?zen ollicers, each aid $50 a month and provided ith a good horse, would form squad resectable in every ay. The squads of the various unities w uld form a corps, id the whole Slate would have pride in u just as the great ties are proud especially ot ieir mounted officers. ' The shocking affair in Greenood conn v Tuesday omphazes that me State, no matter hat tin* cos', must adopt some leasure to protect the 1'ves of ie country people, especially women an 1 children While rural poltc-3 would con more in I he Disineiwnrv eniml !it?nlunT ? < J ~ ' J ;sts the State, ii could perform ie du'ies <1 t li*? constabulary v\ t lie 1 ?tt r's expense ? f mainnanee would he saved.

Estimate as to How oenale will Stand on Dispensary Question. Columbia special in vesterday's Charlotte Observer: The new Siate Senate will be pro dispensary unless several oi the dispensary holdovers change their sentiments, which is not likely. In the last. Senate there was a majority of three for the dispensary, which prevented tlu Morgan local option bill goinj ^ through. Tins time the majority will likely be lour or five in lav or ol the dispensary. All o which is on? of the Ireaks o election. an n?t;- ii-mensan Governor. Attorney General ant House being practically certain Of the 19 hold over Senator seven are anti-dispensary ami 1' dispensary. The dispensary peo pie therefore need only nine now Senators to give them a bar< majority. They hare ten certaii new ones and will probably wii in a majority of the lour contest yet in doubt. The most interest inland imnortjin t, miestion ii this election, there'ore, in: Wil there be anotherdeadlock betweei the two Houses as occurred las session, the House holding ou for local option and refusing ti pass the Senate's Tillman-Mau ning-liaysor dispensary purilica tion bill.
