In this issue will be found an article by Representative I) L Smith as to why Senator Griffin’s bill re quiring an investigation of tbe county’s finamis failed to pass at tbe recent setsion of the Legislature. In this article Mr Smith goes into an explanation as to his record as county tret mrer. We have nothing to do with this; in fact, nothing ws have written in this connection has reference to Mr Smith as tieasurer, and Mr Smith does us an injustice when he states that “the obvious purpose and intent of these, and other similar statements which have recently reached our ears, is to create tbe 'impression in the minds of the paqple.that I, m * member of tbe House of Representatives, am guilty of using tbe power reposed ia me by virfae'of -this honorable cltoe to prevent aa exposure of myself oouaiy treasurer” The position w« have taken all alopg ia this: The Grand Jury of Gotlatoa county, ia one of their recent preaentmecta, sew fit to call upon our delegation |UL the General Assembly to pom aa act requiring aa expert axaauaatisa of tbe oflkea of Colleton eounty for a period of ten yean put This raooaumoidatioa by tba Grand Jury we believe, mowded by many, if not a majority, ol tbe citisene of tbo county. For •ome reason, tbe Legialatare foiled, at ita recent session, to provide for thia expert examination, thereby ignoring tbe presentment of the Grand Jury and the withes of the people. We believed it eminently proper that some explanation be made aa to thia foilure. This explanation oould have been made with equal propriety by any member of tbe Legislature. Senator Griffin made an explanation in onr issue of two weeks ago, in which he put it pu to the membera ot the Ileus* of Representatives to make some explanation. We expected some explanation from some member of the House of Representatives in last week’s issue, but as none appeared, we£felt it proper and our duty to al lued to its absence. Now that both sides have spoken, we are of the opinion that the pub lie is in a position to judge Intel- legeutly. So far aa Mr Smith’s record as county treasurer is concerned, ws do not believe that any one thinks for a moment that he has been guilty of any intentional wrong. He unfor tunately for himaelf, was imposed upon on account of his desire to and strictly prohibits the sale of alum baking powder— So does France So does Germany The sale of alum foods has been made illegal in Washington and the District of Colum bia, and alum baking powders are everywhere recognized as njunow. j Q yourself against alum, when ordering baking powder, Say plainly- ROYALS and be very sure you get Royal Royal is the only Baking Powder made from Royal Grape Cream of Tartar.
