This is tbe law in, at leakt one, if not more, of the states of jibe union, and should be the law iu this state. In this connection, I think it im pcrtnmi) also to ask that yon pass an act making it a misdemeanor to post at display In any public plaoe or on any street or highway indecent pic tures of females. It is an evil that has been growing In the last few years, and one tbat calls for aotlon on onr part. It is not necessary forme to call to yonr attention the reasons wby this aqt should be passed, it is obvious to aD right thinking persons. I resneotfuliy recommend tbat a ! system of mounted polloe or patrol for the rural districts be established. This is no new ides, but one tbat if> halng carried out with great success in many countries. When there are so many vagrants and idlers roaming about, and there is so much more work to be done on every side, tbe work or move-on system should be established, snd that can be carrid out better by snob mounted patro1 or $6lioe system, tban by any otber plan. Give them authority to arrest all -violators of the laws of. the State, and carry them before the nearest' ?magistrate for trial or commitment 1 themselves. I, therefore, recommend for trial to the Court of General Ses sions. BiOLBOADS. When we he&r so much complaint from so many sources of the neglect - ommission Of the railroad com 0t doing bftjln^3n this Bt>ate, of SXw ^ People p *0p8r Passenger giving to* ^SE?ti. mjs and rates and freight at^fffl^?t ^ del?yed and aoourate mfoi^-Won t a ' trains, it is very evident fc. Kh^? thinking person that the ra. sto commissioners should bave powei < oorreot these things and to give relie. where it is fair and just between the railroads and the people. The rail road corporations should be dealt with fairly and justly but at tbe same time the neoile'd rights should be provided for and respected. I, therefore, recommend tbat such additional powers be given to tbe rail road commissioners as will enable them to compel the railroads to com ply with such reasonable rules and orders as may bo just and proper. In this connection, I would recom mend that tbe act now of force re quiring tbe salaries of the railroad coxrmiBsioners to be paid by tbe rail roads be repealed. Tbe e ffl^e of rail road commissioners is a State c files and the salary ought to be paid bv the State CONFEDERATE VETERANS It is a duty tbat we owe to oursel ves and to our, state that we provide liberal pensions for our needy Conftd erate Veterans?these who for lack of means or who by reason of age or Infirmity are nou able to provide for MISS JUUE ELORENCE WAJ.SH WOMEN SUFFER Many women, suffer in silence and drift along from bad to worse, know ing well that they ought to have immediate assistance. How many -women do yon know who are perfectly well and strong? The cause may be easily traced to some feminine derangement which manifests itself in depression of spirits, reluctance to go anywhere or do anything, backache, dragging sensations, flatulency, nervousness, and sleeplessness. These symptoms are but warnings that there is danger ahead, anU" un less heeded, a life of suffering or a serious operation is the inevitable result. The best remedy for all these symptoms is Lydia R Pinkham's Vegetable Compound made from native roots and herbs. No other medicine in the country has received such widespread and unqualified endorsement. No other medi cine has such a record of cures of female ills. Miss J. F. Walsh, of 328 W. 30th St., New York City, writes:?"Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has been of inestimable value in restoring my health. I suffered from female illness which caused dreadful headaches, dizziness, and dull pains in my back, but your medicine soon mought about a change in my general condition, built me up and made me perfectly well.'' Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound cures Female Complaints, such as Backache, Falling and Displacements, Inflammation and Olcera tion', and organic diseases. It is invaluable in preparing for child-birth andjduring the Change of Life. It cures Nervous Prostration, Headache, General Debility, and Invigorates the whole system. Nltis* Pinkham's Standing Invitation to Women Women suffering from any form of female weakness are invited to wrifte Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass. Her advice is free. that you make liberal appropriations for these veterans to be paid to them under such rules and regulations as may be just and proper. roads. The road question la one of para mount importance and one that should have our most careful atten tion. Many of the counties of this at* te are now engaged in the laudable undertaking of building good roads and others are beginning to prepare for grading and macadamizing their ^inelp&l roads.

I desire, Gentlemen, to oaKl your attention also to the matter oftne necessity for batter cseiommod?tion? for onr supreme court. The spaoe allotted in the State House for the use of the supreme eoprt has all been taken up with the library .and records, except one consultation room and the court room. I respectfully ask that you look into this matter and provide for the necessities of the oourt in this regard. BEAUTIFYING STATE HOUSE GROUNDS. I I would also urge that some steps | be taken toward beautifying and im proving the grounds that surround this Capital Building. With the ez pendlture of a little money a great improvement can be made and I feel assureed that their stats bouse grounds shall be beautified and im proved. IMMIGRATION. There Is no question of greater mo ment to our material and industrial I lifo than that of immigration. The' labor question Is very serious one. Many thousands of acres of lands are uow lying idle for the want of labor ers, and many other avenues of trade are offering work to the Wirkers. To joy mind tbe beBt solution of this question is the bringing in of home seekers, home builders and desirable workmen. I, therefore, recommend that you cake such steps as may to you seem *ise to foster and sustain the Depart ment cf Immigration now accom plishing so much work on this line. STATUTE OF JOHN C. CALHOUN. Wbile many of the states of this Union have honored themselves by Dlaoing in tbe Hall of Fame, In the Capital at Washington, D 0., statues of one or two of Gbelr boncred and minent sons, who have done noble *ork fnr their states and for the Uj ?on, Soutb Carolina's place has re trained vaoant. I resptctfuiy re sommend that you give this matter' your carnful aUentisn and give suoh consideration to tbe same that at no distant day tbe statute of John C. Oalhoun may adorn that Hall, for by thus honoring that noble son of South Carolina, we wiirhonor ourselves. Suoh other matter, gentlemen, as may be proper to bring to your attf n tiou during the oresent session, I shall allude to id special messages. conclusion. Allow meto add in tbe words of that eminent statesman, Thomas Jefferson, who when called to the office of President of the United States, closed his inaugural address, In part as follows. "I repair then fellow oitizens to the post yon have assigned me, with experience enough In subordinate offices to hive seen the difficulties of th!s the greatest of all. I have learned to expect that It will rarely fall to toe lot of imperfect man to ratire from this station witn the re putation and tbe favor which bring olm into It-.I shall often gc wrong through defeot pf judgment, when right, 1 Bhall often be thought "rang by those whose positions Rill flot command a view of the whoif ground. I shall ask your indulgence for my own errors, which will never be intentional; and your support against the errors of others, who mxy condemn what they would not, If seen in all of its parts, My solloitude will be to retain the good opinion of those who have bestowed It In advance, to conciliate that of others by doing them all the good in ray power, and to be instrumental hi the happiness and freedom of all. "Belying then, on the patronage of your good will, I advanoe with obedience to work, and may that In finite Power, whlob rules the destin ies of the Universe, lead our counoil? to what is best, and give them a favorable issue for your peaoe and prosperity." ?.
