Just whar is to come of the investigation of conditions at the State Hospital for the Insane we are unable to see after having read with more or less care the voluminous testimony printec from day to day by the daily press. It seems to be a case oi the witnesses appearing before the committee foi1 no other purpose than to stand up and answei questions, many of which are irrelevant and childish in the ex treme, for no other purpose thar to give somebody an opportunity to "stai;" in the press^^This paper has no space to waste, anc c r t a ke j of new officials is sd at the hospital. rur. tJaococK, supernuenaent, has outlived his day of usefulness to the institution, as have a number of his assistants, and conditions there are not apt tc show much improvement, investigation or no investigation, until changes are made in the management. It really is suprising that a rftan bf the standing and reputed ability of Senator T. P. Gore, of Oklahoma, should be involved in such a case as that which is now being prosecuted against him in the courts of Oklahoma. Senator Gore is charged with having assaulted a woman in a Washington hotel some months ago and ishe is suing him for $50,000 damages. The whole case may be a frame-up, as Senator Gore claims it is; but whether it is or not, the fact that Senator Gore has had Vg^efend himself against ^ waeh-acharge is apt to destroy -hiTrt^ppiiiically and it is doubtful whether he will be reelected to Senate. If the jury returns a verdicTlorthe woman, Senator Gore ought to be impeached and the seat he holds in the Senate declared vacant with as little ado as possible. g It is a truth, none can refute, " that we are all to some extent ^'dependent upon others. Money . will buy attentions, but it fails 1 to buy happiness and often it is I from the humblest sources that we reap our greatest joy. The ^ millionaire wiLL turn from his HBBome^>?^ealth where he has a ^^Hurfeit of luxury and stop at the ^^Koor of an humble cottage to en^^ oy the smile of a prattling child ^Hthat has won his heart by its ^ pleasant way; and as it walks by ^Hhis side as far as safety will per^Knit and he watches it until it> ^ enters its home. As he misses the little hand from his grasp, he recalls those who have passed out of the reach of his loving m care, and his soul cries out, "What is home without the I children?" Senator Tillman doubtless feels I that he is not beyond his rights I in undertaking to defeat GovernI or Blease for the United States Senate, but if Senator Smith is as smart as a man should be to hold a seat in the Senate, he will ^ lose little time in calling Senator Tillman aside and requesting him to let up on the Governor. Tillman's opposition to Blease is not costipg the latter any votes.:] The wonder is that Senator Till?ranan doesn't know it. ?j ' Kin' The fight being made for and against the Foztner bill hap brought to light a condition in this State which was hitherto unknown by a large per cent, of our people, and one which is little short of deplorable. As conditions are pictured at present?" it apparently will be only a short time until the Legislature will be forced to make a law to prohibit the intermingling of the races, and we can see nothing for | gain in deferring action to this end. I _ - [ One of The Times' young friends asks the paper to sugr gest the establishment in Fort Mill of a public gymnasium. This we gladly do and add our indorse ment to the suggestion. No institution would be a source of more genuine pleasure and healthful" exercise for <iur young people than a gymnasium properly equipped, and we doubt not that if approached our citizens r would gladly donate a sufficient J sum for the establishment of. 1 such an institutioc/ r - ^ t An exchangejsjtates that you i can read the ire\yspaper proof three or four times and repeated" ly pass the same error without - seeing it. All newspaper men - tell you so. But as soon as the ? press is started and the paper is ^ ' printed in its complete shape, , there stands the error in fronts 1 of you, y so big that you can't! ' see anything else. It's a strangej fact ana probably a reason why; it is so easy to edit a newspaper after it is printed. ( It is officially estimated that the promoters of the get-richquick schemes and other fraudu lent enterprises using the mails i have robbed the American public 1 of $129,000,000 in two years. It > is the declared intention of the postal authorities to enforce with increased vigor the present regu lations that are designed to exclude the swindler from the privilege of the mails. There may be a better country than the one in which you are now located, but you are not apt to find it through the florid representations of the exploiters of real estate schemes. It takes hard work, foresight, frugality, and some other solid virtues to produce success anywhere in the worlds No doubt the exercises of these virtues right where you are would richly, pay. * I The State has been very kind to Dr. Eleanora B. Sanders in presenting her side of the testimony which the asylum investigating committee has been grind- ' ! ing out for several days and she ' | ought to be considerate of that \ newspaper by not asking more ' than $50,000 in damages for the < ! picture it printed of her last ' Sunday. < It is noticed in the daily press ? that certain women's clubs in '5 this State are opposed to the >! passage of the Fortner bill. We ' j are curious to know just what11 per cent, of the membership of . these clubs, were they called ;? upon to furnish self support, would accept places as teachers in the negro schools. t The express charges under the , new rate on a gallon of liquor j from Richmond, Va., to Fort Mill 1 are 1*5 cents as against 65 cents i under the old rate. However, J we have yet to hear of any of t the dealers making a reduction in the price of their goods. It i r all goes the shipper's way. i t: l)o you ever stop and wonder j s what has become of the old- <= fashioned, kind-hearted man who i c used to haul a load of wood and i * a sack of flour around to the poor widow now and then? May- {\ be he has become a county super- | ? visor and had her sent to the poor farm. tl j' Owe No Man. J Every man in this community p is, of course, honest and pays his s debts promptly, therefore, the s following which has been handed ^ us by one of the town's citizens ~ is referred to people of other climes: The culpable debtor or dishon- )dj est borrower is a thief because ivi he takes and keeps unjustly the ^ goods of others. The thief takes c secretly the property of others, tf Eind the bad payer procures goods ''' tinder the pretense of Joying, i MM TBprORTl I AS I Aceompai They know I mw1 ?*in till. I Clll "for less."

Where is the difference, then, between the person who docs not pay for goods and the thief? The loss is the same to a man whether he is robbed or sells goods for which he receives nothing in return. Do you not suffer the same injustice, whether ten dollars are stolen from you or some sleek individual borrows that sum and will not return it? The injustice is the same in both cases, hence willful debtors and dishonest borrowers are thieves and are to be branded as the worst enemies of society. Death in Gold Hill. Mrs. R. C.
