To the Editor: The grandest words oi tongue or pen just at present are those by which Governor Blease vetoed the Richland county medical school inspection bill. I Grand he has also been in ODDosition ! to compulsory education and child labor-law9. Ii looks as if S. 0. is to be the only State where the tyrannies of doctors, educators and minister are to be checked; I say ministers because they are in partnership with the others and are also seeking throughout the country to suppress sinners by law, rather than convert them by the grace and love of the Gospel, as did Jesus Christ. The masses will naye a great awakening ere long. Francis Back Liyesey, West Friendship, Md. Mail Car Bobbed An unknown white man, who was described as being very nervous, Thursday night at 10:45 o'clock entered the mail car of Southern railway train No. 11, from Charleston, half way between Columbia and Royster, and secured several sacks of registered mail. Railway mail offioials said at midnight that it was impossible to estimate the amounts contained in the registered letters, but that they were from Charleston. None of the letters and papers were touched. The mail car was in charge of C. E. Thomas, railway mail clerk. He made report to the transfer clerk upon the arrival of the train at the union station. Special agents of the Southern railway and members of the Columbia police department were put to work on the case and an arrest had not been mtd^ at an earlj hour Friday morn-. ; fog. It is supposed that the bandit boarded the train at Rcyster. He waited into the mail car, pistol in hand, at the Whaley street crossing. He'or-T dered the mail clerk to tarn his back. | * He kept the clerk under cover until l the ^ui(?ri WB? j reached. ?umPed ?* the S Jj>y 1 one of the side a:i^ escaped, % The train was doe iff Columbia ' 10.20 o'clock but jyas I'uBfljpg about 30 minutes late. * - The robber waa describe hv Mr." 1 Thorna9 as being about fi?e feet eight i ipches tall and very 2er?ou& "TJie man is suoposed to have board- ; ed train at Soyster.

He jumped off just before the train crossed the bridge . near the Union station/' said one of the railway mail service othb'ials Thurs- j day night. Two years ago a railway mail robbery occurred at the same hour and place and under almost tie exact conditions.

Harman, county superintendent of education, has jn?t received returns from the election held in Martin's school district No. 78 in the Dutch Fork on the question of voting a twomiii levy for school nurooses. in which it is stated that the electiou carried in favor of the special levy by a unanimous vote of 13, there not being a single disenting vote cast. This means that another district in the oonnty has realized the great importance of more funds for school purposes in order that the children of the "common old field school" might have an opportunity of having a longer session. Most of the districts in the [ conntv jilrandv 1i?va AYfra. tax levips I to be applied to the school term, the people, as a rule, being willing to go "down in their jeans" in order that their children might receive more educational advantages. Superintendent Harman spent last week in different sections of the county visiting the schools, and with bnt few exceptions, according to his views, the schools are in a flourishing condition. However, there are some schools in the county, he says, where the attendance is dropping off from what he wonld like to see it, indicating that the farmers are stopping tlieir children from school all too early in order that the work on the farms might be pushed. Wherever the government demonstration farms are being operated in conjunction with the high schools the people are taking a lively interest as a whole, and it i9 believed that the demonstrations will prove far more beneficial than was at first anticipated or even hoped for. Varioqa kinda o* crop3 ara being expttidmented with on these tarns, and the teachers, students and pa'rous, are very much elated over the. advancement.
