A LIBERAL GIVER. A few days ago the news of a liberul gift to Coker College by J. L. Coker was spread broadcast over the State, and many commenta commend ing his great liberality have been heard. Thia is not the first gift from Mr. Coker for this college, which has already been heavily endowed by his liberality, but coming Just at this timo it will Berve a good purpose. - Ot course a gift or $120,000 st one time to any worthy obiect presupposes the possession cf great wealth, and Mr. . Coker ia reputed to be wealthy. But he in not moro so than many other persons in South Carolina, and he ow no more affosu to make such hand some donations to the college than many other men in tho State could af ford to give for worthy purposes. For this liberality and well chosen objects for endowment, Mr, Coker will bo remembered long after others more able to contribute have keen forgos t*. and have ceased to exist In name . or In gratitude. The possession of wealth carries with it great power and great responsibility. The mau who has massed, a fortune does have great power. How he uses lt proclaims the kind of man he la If he is ar ni, self centered and miserly lt were better that he did not possess thc means which a better man would use to so great advantage and tor the ad vancement of his community and his people, if he is liberal and a con ...tributor to worthy causes, making glad the heart of those who are his neighbors and friends, his possessions will not damn h/'m. How a man can hoard wealth wheu there are so many worthy and needed avenues for ita uso is snrprtr,Iug, but the fact re main-- that many men hold on to their .dollars so tight "till the eagle H'! cams.'" What Major Coker has done for, coker College we wish some wealthy ' citizen would do for Anderson Col lege. Has not Anderson College como friend who will come to ita aid aad e an endowment which will mean growth and* upbuilding? This Is of tij'e wealthiest counties in tho c. It han in -A some of the wealth men tn the State. May It net have in ita borders some of ?he most ?al? ''Money end what to do wV.h >s tho subject ot aa address de livered several years ago by Dr. D. K. Pearson of Chicago. Up to that time he had given over four million dol lars to the eause of Christian edu cation, and be ?aid he had never en joyed life till he began to give away his earnings. He realized that when the "last deep sleep" fal'., upon one that nothing can be carried away. Others might well prolit by his ex ample. "Count your wide conquests of sea and lund. Heap up the gold and hoard us you may All you can hold in your cold, dead hand ls what you have given awuy." j THF. <0>STITITION AND TUB LAW. "To hell with the constitution" said a former chief executive of South Carolina. This doctrine has been re sponsibly for crimes doubtless, and has caused many people to feel that the "chorter of our liberties" has been defiled, lt is, therefore, very refresh ing to have thc office of the chief ex ecutive a man who will not disregard it but whose desire IB to conform tc the spirit as well as to the letter of the constitution. . overnor Manning wished to securo the services of a man to be at the head of one of the most important In stitutions of the State, the Hospital for the Insane. It ls a position which requires a technical training, and an experience which should be broad and a training which should be thorough. The wards of the State were to bo served by this man, aud he wr." to stand a? the head of an Institution provided for Its most helpless and for lorn class of citizens-no, not citizens, for then they would have a voice In their government. Accordingly a man was selected who was prepafed by education and experience to be thc head of this institution, but on ac count of the fact that the State Con. stitutlon said he was not eligible tho appointment was withdrawn. It ls thus made plain that the chief ex ecutive will not condemn the consti tution, but that he will obey its man - dates. Now, does it not give a feeling of security that such ls a fact? The Columbia State, commenting upon this action of Governor Manning says: In a South Carolina town a few months ago a man was dangerously sick and required the attention of a medical specialist. He was too Ul tb! be moved and the specialist best qual ified to minister to him lived in Phil adelphia. They telegraphed for the Philadelphia physician and he came. The patient was wealthy, he could af ford to pay the $1,000 or 92,500 that was the fee of the specialist. The other day some 1,600 South Carolinians were Ul and they required the care and treatment of a man ex perienced in conducting a hospital for presons suffering with thu peculiar diseases with which they were afflict ed, Now these people were very poor, Indeed, people dependent on the char ity-'of their neighbors-their fellow South Carolinians. They could not go to Philadelphia for treatment, neither could they send- for a Philadelphia physician. However, the man charged with responsibility for them, by their neighbors, the governor, undertook to do what, in his judgment, was best for them. Hearing of a man exper iened in conducting a hospital of the kind they stand in need of who also is 5 specialist In the class of diseases from which they suffer, the governor tried to engage him to come to South Carolina and here live and direct tho hospital. The physician, who was a resident ot Baltimore, was willing to come but, lo! the governor found that he could not employ this physic ian. The law, the constitution of thia grand old commonweal th of ours, stood in the way and blocked it. "Put none but South Carolinians on guard!" reads our wise constitution -or that ls the sense of lt. Suppose the family of the wealthy gentleman whom we have mentioned had been told, after they had tele graphed for the Philadelphia special ist, that lt was unconstitutional to omploy an outsider to attend at the gentleman's bedside, what would they have said? . What, Mr. Reader, think you of the twaddle about uisng the money . of South Carolina taxpayers only for. Ute employment of South Carolinians when your chlfd needs the attention of a Baltimore specialist? And what think yon of a law, your law, that prevents the employment of a physi cian of another State, for tho poor ot South Carolina? To f* sure, lt is nobody's fault' in particular. Tho constitution waa made twenty ' years ago. Ip. thc circumstances, the governor has done, the best that possibly ho could do. He has employed a South Carolina physician and one of first rate ability and Of the highest char acter to be superintendent of the Hos pital for the mentally diseased. While Dr. Williams has not bcd long expon rionv'e tn connection' with such a hos pital, he ts an .ooompllshed physi cian end has had adtulnistraMve and business experience from whvch may be predicted his successful conduct of tao institution. It la certain that the patients will receive faithful atten tait and nothing will be lett undone to Improve the hospital. "He's suing the company that con structed the artificia] limbs." .
