In a little Columbia. June 17.—Although it seems a long time until the matter comes to a head, consideiing that the constitutional amendment pro viding for the increase in the court must first be submitted to a vote of ' the people, nevertheless the j*o- litical fight that will be waged be- o ! fore the general assembly over the election of a fifth justice of the su preme courtois already taking shape. So far Circuit Judge Memminger, of Charleston, seems the most prom inently mentioned of the probable candidates for the place. His friends are said to l>e finding around quietly and laying their lines for the smooth execution of their plans, and on the other hand the opposition is already forming. Judge Memminger i* ad mitted to be a man of deep culture and of great ability along several j lines, but his crisp remarks from the bench and his manner of handling various members of the bar, have raided up for him a generous crop °f enemies. It is argued by these gen tlemen that Judge Memminger hasj not the judicial temperament, while on the other hand he has rather more than his share of temper. Some of his rulings have been sharply crit- j l icised from the legal standpoint. On the other hand the Charleston jurist made many new admirers by his ad dress on the jury system at the re cent commencement of the Univer sity of South Carolina. This deliv erance is conceded even by hi* po litical enemies to have been a rarely thoughtful paper on a vital and timely subject. This suggests the idea that in many quarters Judge Memminger is held to be peculiarly fitted for that kind of thing; it is said he can and should write for the benefit of brother barristers and that in this field he would find the best use for his talents. i* is James saumiers: m a while and we will all be gone. Not long since he told the writer that he felt his time here was short, but he was ready to go. He had been a sufferer for at least two years, and on June 14, 11*10, he passed away, in his OHth year, and on the next day was buried at Doctor’s Creek Cemetery, amid a large circle'of sorrowing friends and relatives, having been a member of the Haptist church of this place for many years and leaving behind him a wife, two sons and three daugh ters. The funeral sendees were * performed by Rev. J. P. Craham. Durirg the States he was Company I. 11th S. C. Infantry, so *av his -omradts. Since then he ing one.

I find a man pushing his wav through the lines Of the cops, where the work of the fire fiend shines, “The Chief?” I inquire, but a fire man replies: “Oh no, that’s one of those new-s- pai»er guys.” I see a man walk through the doors of a show, Where great throngs are blocked by the sign, “R. R. O.” “Is that man the Star that no ticket he buys?” “Star nothin,; that’s one of those newspaper guys.” 1 see a man start on the trail of a crook; And he scorns the police, but he brings him to book; “Sherlock Holmes?” I inquire— some one scornfully cries: “Sherlock Hell! Naw, that’s one of Those newspaper guys.” And some day I’ll pass by the great Gates of Gold, And see a man pace through unques tioned and bold. “A Saint?” I’ll ask and old Reter’ll reply: “No. He carries * pass; he’s a newspaper guy.” COUNTY DIRECTORY. •OFFICIALS.
