THE LEISLAT'UR11E. Tm.: JoumNA1, editor was disap pointed, and the subscribers will also be, that no member of the Pickens delegation in tho South Carolina general assembly favored us with i letter this week. So something must be said about the aetiigs and doings of tho law mak crs, now assembled in the State capuol. Thoro aro many things that impress n -- 'iiased observer 'Id proceedings ivo asseibly. thing for the I nize how thir con duet is being observod and com mented upon by the good poople wlho elected themi to their high and responsiblo positions. It was the pleasiro of Tru-: Jorn zzm. oditor to viit Columbia last wepk and to Call uIpont the Pickens delegation. These members stay together, and perfect harmony and good feeling exist amongr them. Pickens need not bo ashamed of her senator and reprosentatives, for they take a high stand in the es teem and admiration of their follow laborers in tho legislativo depart. m11en1t of tho government. .each one is trying to do good and faith. ful service for )is couity and Stat., and thero will bo no regrets about their efforts. A report of their work h4as al ready been mado to t he people of Piekenst counityv in previ Otis coirres;pnIidontco and we have noithing fiurtelr to report at prosent except theiCr 1,arment as to the appo~intmnOi o Supervisors of Rog istintionIl. Dulrti!.; a call ipon then last wveek T :J!rN.ui. editor was iniformed that tie delegation had atgr''ed to r, co nn Ilend for 1pp1 mint Imlenit as Sutperv isors of Fgistra tion for Pickens county, J. H1. Kennnar J.T. Looper. and E'd wardI lind r-ks. It is safe to prediet thait Nio puibbe servico wNill not .ui; r i; their hands. This~ is the ou~rth wek, that, th general aembl y has been in ses. Sionl and" mlany h" inqes ar- ma11d< tions arle more~ 0 rwi'v ask than ant swer dI I, lott a gre at del has beel dlone tht doe noS tt appear to al ordmaury observer. VTo fato c mnanyv mealures is in sight and th~ sentinmnt of the legislaturo hnv been sounidedl on tho most impoi tan bils.It is generally- -oe ded that wxork of this body will b: comp jl eted within thu forty dayr wielb was onico conidlered t h limidt., but which is now constru-le as not apllllicable to the proseni s ssion of the solons. The join judiciary committee will ini al probabhilIity [:old that the forty dayv limit will alloet. thle pay of t~h pren t members and hence thi session will likely ciuso about thi ond( oIf forty days. Must of the bills that have passet both llouses avo enitirely local it . their r;iature-, andi scarcely any]~ gen. oral Juglait ion has came upl in botli hIonses. The work hats been morec in the diroci ion of dlestrulct ion of pro p)osed legislation than in the on actmnent of laws, which is often the best wor-k a member can perform. The11 most remuar-kable feature inI tho proceedings is the absence of hostility to railroads, banks arid cotton mills. In1 :fact the pendui lum seems1 to haveO swung to the other extreme. As tho pOolo p.0s per, pgood feeling prevails and ov ery interest is promoted and pro tected. Thiero are always some mermbors in tho legislature who imagine themnselves wiser than all their predceCssors andl colleagures and who art, not entisfied with existinl intstituttions. TIhe (dispenisary law and the management of the dis ponsary businoss have come in foi their share of propod' -->nvau&'n and roformn. WVnat will be the re suit, -when the manty bills have beet considered, is beyond tihe sphere o legitimate prediction. There beinj mnore or 'less politics in these dis pensarty measures, roason and jus tice Cannot be .depeonded upon al safe guides to ai certain solution. Tho peniitentiairy farms are undei the searching eye of the legislatoi and the continuantice of State farm ing is a question yet to be settled, As this is a purely bu.siness matter the facts and figures will likely sot, tie it to the best interest of the Stato. Tiri JOU1RNAL has 710 Bug gstions to niale, except to look 0i0soly into th~o mnaqe forefo an EDU~CATION&L CONDUCTED BY W. W. F. BRI1', County Sut. of Education. At the meeting of the County Superintendents at Columbia last weok, they u'..-nainously recom mondod that the Legislature repeal the clause requirinlg county boards to grant certificatcs on diplomas, and- with the unanimity condomn o- Tarboll's Grammars for the con sidertition of the State Board in their adoption this year. * **% Sone1 Cossplaints. Rrother teacher, there is some c011plailnt that you opeln school at the early hour of 10 o'clock a. m and that you are so careless of the school time of thie pupils as to keep them hard at work or something oIsO, until 3 p.
