"Hilly" Smith on Pay-Many Signors. (Greenville Nows.) Petitions are being circulated among traveling men and others ask ing that tho Southern Railway retire on pay Capt.

For many years he has been in charge of passenger trains Nos. 17 and 18, oi: the Colum bia-Greenville division. He is so well known to tho traveling public that he needs no introduction. It is said that the petitions have al ready been signed by more than one thousand persona from the seacoast to the mountains, as far as Ashe ville. The petitions were put into circu lation only this week, and the num ber of signatures has grown to large proportions almost in a single night. The plea for the retirement and honor for Capt.

(Florence Times.) Prof. Twitchell, of the South Caro lina University, has accepted tho of fice of State Geologist tendered him by Governor Blease, who vetoed the provision for the office and later found that there was work that needed to he done, but ungraciously suggests that the geologist must pay his own expenses, and be prepared for the abolition of the office by the next General Assembly. The profes sor, being a wise man, knowing tho value of the office to tho State, ac cepts tho strange conditions of his appointment, saying that he does so in order that he might be able to convince the ignorant Stato officials and careless legislators of the great value to tho people of the State of this office, which the Governor has so contemptuously vetoed. Prof. Twitchell may be able to make his services more conspicuous than Mr. Sloan did. wno loved his work and thought that everybody would have interest and patriotism enough to learn what it was, but we doubt if any maa would be able to do better work than Mr. Sloan did.

Canfield is the new auditor for Greenwood county. Governor Mease late to-day named Canfield for the position, after receiving a statement from Canfield that he would accept. Canfield suc ceeds the late .lames D. Watson, no- 1 tice of whoso death np pee red in to day's papers. Mr. Canfield will serve until February 17, 1913, as tho com mission of Mr. Watson was Issued February 17, 1911, for tho succeed ing two years. Behind thc simple announcement of the appointment of J. W. Canfield is a highly interesting story. First of all, Canfield will have to resign as magistrate, to which position he was appointed by Governor Blease, whoso action occasioned a legal battle, lt was J. W. Canfield and Major W. H. Kerr who opposed one another for tho magistrate's joh in Greenwood, Major Kerr refusing to turn over tho office to the man named by Governor Blease. Governor Blease on March 21 in formed Mnjor Kerr that "I have al ready advised you that your commis sion has been revoked, and while I had hoped you would gracefully retire, I now repeat to you that you are hereby removed from the office of magistrate for neglect of duty." The Governor then directed Major Kerr to turn over the affairs of tho office to J. W. Canfield. This Major Kerr refused to do, on the ground that tho appointment of Canfield had not been made "hy and with the advice and consent of the Senate." A legal argument in full was advanced by Major Kerr in a letter to the Gover nor. The latest development In the ca.se was the order hy Judge Watts, on April 21, refusing to require Major Kerr to resign. Tho titlo to tho of fice was not decided by Judge Watts in the order, and both men are hold ing on. With tho appointment of Canfield as auditor tho magisterial situation is relieved, hecauso Mr. Can field will resign his commission and assume the duties of auditor for Greenwoo-' "ninty. No sooner had the death of the late auditor been announced than Gover nor Blease received telephonic mes sages from Greenwood about the ap pointment of a successor. Among others suggested was tho son of the late auditor of the county. Governor Blease withheld his decision in tho matter until this afternoon, deeming it best to walt for a day or so. To-day Governor Blease received in conversation with Canfield, the latter's assurance that he will serve as auditor and be glad to do so. The appointment, was announced late this afternoon and tho commission will be issued accordingly. Foley Kidney Bills are a true med icine. They are healing, strengthen ing, antiseptic and tonic.
