HERE THIS WEEK.
V. D. Oliphant Visited Jail, i
Chaingang and Almshouse t
of Lancaster County. '
The State Board of Charities and
c
'orrections made this week its sec-!
I 2
nd inspection of the Lancaster .
ounty chaingang camp. Jail andi(
lmshouse. The inspections were j
lade for the board by A. D. Ollhant.
its assistant secretary.
An interesting feuture of the, j
oard's work tliis year is its system j
f scoring county penal and char-'
able institutions on the basis of cer- ' v
ain standards it has sot for tl\eir!f
lunagement and equipment. The (
rores make possible a fair oompari- e
[>n of the way in which the direrlit
counties of the State are caring
or their prisoners. convicts and
aupers. They indicate, too, defl-,
lencies in prison and almshouse!
lants and point the way to reforms
lat should be made in management, j
aneaster's jail, chaingang and almsouse
will all be scored, and the
cores and recommendations for inreasing
them sent to the liflcinls f
ho have these institutions in charge |
nd to other interested citizens. The :
im of the board is to get better fa- | j
ilities in the Jails, chalngangs and ;
lmshouses of the State and to help
?
he men in charge of them to manage ;
hem along the lines which modern, ^
xporience has shown to be best.

The Hoard of Charities and Cor-!
ections is of the opinion that many r
f the counties of South Carolina are'
oo small to maintain by themselves j
lmshouses which will be good homes ''
or paupers and in which they can re j'
eive the hospital attention which r
hey need so frequently. The board '
? advocating the consolidation of
mi^ll county almshouses into district
lmshouses in which paupers coming
rom the counties in the group main- '
lining the almshouse can receive at '
he lowest cost a combination of the 1
ome and hospital care which they f
cod. The abolition of the alms- f
ouses in the counties with com- ,
aratively small populations and the
ormatlon of district almshouses to
are for paupers from several counles
presupposes the re-classification

Fearlessness a Virtue.
From one cause or another we
shrink from the responsibltty of
avowing our deepest convictions. Partly
it is from the fear of ostentation
and singularity, partly from self-distrust
and sincere humility, partly 1
from more unworthy motives. But i
