Gage of Chicago, is to be McKinley’s Secretary of the Treasury. Mr. Gage is a successful banker, and enjoys the distinction of not being a politician. The selection seems to displease New York. The Daily Times was very late yesterday, and the print was mis erably bad. We beg to express our regrets. It was with much difficulty that we printed at all, ow ing to the excessively cold weather, stiff ink, etc., and all this accounts for the illegible sheet sent out and the delay in sending it. The friends of labor in the legis lature are receiving scant encour agement from those whom they would benefit. According to their own statements and petitions, the laborers do not want any legisla tion. They are very well satisfied, and being so, legislation in their behalf is unnecessary, and there fore without reason. Mule*, Mule*. S. D.

C., on the third Monday in January 1897 at 11 o’clock a. m., for the purpose of considering the applications for pensions provided for in said act By order of R. G. Howard, Chairman. We hope the attempt to have published the substance of our col onial records will not utterly fail. We disagree with those who think the book would not be read. There is a demand now for a his tory of South Carolina, and these records are in fact a history of the State from its settlement to the Revolution. If a book of zoo pages would not suit, then we do not see why a book of a number of pages sufficient to make it interest ing aud readable cannot be pub lished. We believe the legislature should act, and act now. The book would be appreciated anti read, never fear. A FREEZE IN FLORIDA.
