J Grand for Blease!
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.

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

the railway mail service othb'ials Thurs- j
day night.
Two years ago a railway mail robbery
occurred at the same hour and

I Another District Falls in Line
' Holly L. 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.
Many of the schools in the county ,
will close for the term vithln
the next few weeks, but Superintendant

Northerners Go to Florida.
Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Morgan and
Capt. Oha9. H. Keleo, cf Cleveland,
Ohio, who have been the guests ot
the Hon. Prank W. Shealv for the
past few weeks, left on Friday morning
for a stay of several days in Florida
before returning to their home in
Cleveland. Before leaving Lexington
the entire party expressed themselves
as being highly pleased with our oil- J
mate and delighted with the people. J
Lexington always knows how to treafc F
the "stranger within her gates," and
on this occasion the visitors from the
north received a most cordial welcome.
Mr. and Mrs. MorgaD and
Capt. Kelso made friends with everyone
they came in contact and it wae
with keen regret that their new-made
friends in Lexington watched their departure.
These good people will always
