The senator, doubt- ca' less thinking there was a ol chance of getting himself "to - th' getheragain," concluded to start hi* all over, so got himself elected to the state senate. He has begun by advocating measures ,m and things which may tempor- ; iarly make him popular, but'''" which in the end will prove his ')l undoing. For instance, after i' the supreme court had declared ("' the cotton warehouse act un- ' constitutional, he introduced a ' ( patched-up bill in the senate of n" the same tenor and purpose, and s*' while the legislature did not kill it, it got it out of the way by continuing it to the next session. He is an advocate also, of selling the state farms, be- |>j( cause they come in competition with tin- farmers of the state. ni. And his latest stand is against j pj. compulsory education. Senator m{ McLaurin is in many respects, (>01 an able man, and we are sorry that he is beginning again to W{ show unmistakable signs of demagogism. No, Senator McLaurin, there is little chance of ft your reaching again the high of position you once held, by pand- "or ering to what you think will i(>t make you popular. Fridays at Lancaster, S.
