Looks Like Whole Matter Was Pure Politics. Th?- Richardson investigation "petered out" Friday afternoon. The runinilttrr coueluiltil its hearings, nml will report to the senate. The decision of the eotnmittee was reserved. Those who have watched every phase of tiie Investigation, which was demandeil by former t'hief it a me Warden lliehardson. are eonvinced that the entire hearing has. so far as the public is concerned, given t,*oI. Richardson an absolutely clean bill of health. The afternoon session, the fourth of the hearing, was really only a sort of winding up of the entire affair There were three features of Friday's hearing: First, as to the packing of the Audubon society, with regard to securing a recommendation of the society for the appointment of a chief game warden h> the governor. Mr. Gibbes, Governor Manning's appointee, admitted on cross-examination, that he _jf had also, following what he termed the precedent established, 'drummed up" members of the society to vote for him for the recommendation and had himself voted several hundred proxies, which gave htm the nomination of what has been heretofore termed In this correspondence as the "Rump convention" of the socie - r ty. when Mr. Gibbet* was nominated to the governor. 1 Second. Governoi Manning's stateirient to the committee that he had not sent in his veto message last year i with the idea of charging Richard son with any "crime or misappropriation of funds, but that he had felt , and still felt that the office was being r < or;ducted irregularly in the respects x-t out." and further contending that piobably the investigation, in the regard of inquiring into the matters ujiou which he had bused his veto w:.k an "enrt-Liaehnient" bv '.h<* legislative department upon the ix?<-utivt; which in this instance the governor, against lack of precedent, had waived in courtesy to the senate. Third, the failure to produce any I i' il testimony against Col. Richard' son. Senatoi hoi i ha in, representing Col. Hii harn.son, in an eloquent and logi1 ai address at the beginning of the hearing Friday, said that Kichardson i was ready to meet any specific charge, hut urged tiiat "quibbling over small iiiati' is" be eliiinnatcU. Tb< governor's testimony admitted, ti" said. in fairness to Richardson, that according to the statement of .-'lute Auditor Hradley, gasoline and upkeep of automobiles had been paid for by ?'ol. Kichardson from his personal funds, and not from the state funds, and that the "prosecution" had in i n wrong in this regard. Mi. ijibhes. Covernnr Manning's a|?l>oiut?-c as chief game warden, was on the stand for nearly an hour. He admitted that he had paid Mack Huy, former bookkeeper for Kichardson. over four hundred dollars in one month and Came Warden Little of Liurens, over one thousand dollars in November and December of last par. which he said included commissions. to thein under a contract of immediate necessity" because he felt it was necessary to get his forces ( together quickly, as he felt and thut he had kept within the law, and if he found his system was wrong as a result of his inexperience, he would -Image it.?Charleston American.

According to the latest information obtainable. 113 Americans lost their lives with the sinking of the Tuscania. The names of 1.S32 survivors had actually been reported up t<> yesterday. leaving 345 soldiers on board unaccounted for; but it was believed that it was largely a matter of getting the additional natnes; There were only a few South ''ar<?linians on the Tusear.ia. and so far none of thern have been reported among the missing. Two South <'aroll niuns. Willie Stuck y of Uiniar. and Wayin S Rill of Marion, are reported among the survivors. No Price-Fixing for Cotton. There will be no effort on the part of <011gress to lix the price of last year's cotton crop, ami probably no enorr (o tix Hie piH't of the 1:<1? crop, atcording to a Phgrain which has hei n received in Atlanta from Senator Hoke Smith of Georgia, who cb>s?-. ly in touch with the situation in Washington. If the congress attempts to tix the price of cotton it will have to fir the price also on product* manufactured from cotton, and will have to extend its price-fixing regulation* to many other iommodifies, declares the senator. who is determined that the farmers of Georgia and other southern states shall not he deprived of the benefits they are now enjoying through natural laws of supply and demand, while western wheat farmers have had a price fxvd for their produet by tin- government which is practically equivalent tc the present market price of cotton. Senator Smith further gives out the highly interesting and significant information that nil the talk of fixing ihe price of cotton is manufactured by speculators for the deliberate purpose of intimidating farmers into selling th< ir product at a declining price. This trick has actually succeeded already in measurably reducing the price of cotton, he declares, but in the future the farmers should not allow* themselves to he misled by any such false reports.

The plan was figured out by .Itroomfield J. Miller. Actuary of the s Mutual Benefit, in 1874. It appeals to any man who appreciates his obligation to protect those dependent on him while they are not In position to protect themselves, and at the same time realizes that after the time comes that lependents no longer need protection He May Need Protection Himaelf. It In n contract under which the holder in absolutely sure to win, whether he lives or not, provided, of course, he continues to annually arrnnge the comparatively small premium called for In v the contract; in other words he will certainly "catch the coon either going ur coming." It Is not practical to give i detailed and satisfactory exposition at the plan within the space at my disposal: hut If you are sufficiently inter- . rsted in the protection of both yourself :>nd your dependents to ask for details, I shall he pleased to "show you." The Mutual Benefit attaches at present, a : war clause to all policies Issued on the 1 lives of applicants between It and 45 ' years of age. and In case the policy- ' holder enters the service of the U. S? 1 tin extra premium of $37.50 on each 1 $1,000 is due and payable for the first year in service, whether the -holder Is , in the IT, S. or France. If you are be- ' twecn 15 and 70 there will be no war clause. SAM M. GRIST, Special Agent. J War Savings Stamps FOR SALE AT THIS BANK.
