wapten remembered that aft
ln the deathof .Dr. R. F. Smith not
only Easley and Pickens county but the
state at large has suffered a distinct
loss, for he was a public sprited, patri
otic citizen. Never, since he has reached
the age of manhood, has town, county
or state called for his patriotic service
but that he was ready with his talent,
and money to further the best interes1
of his people. His mental capacity wa,
of a high order, so much so that if h4
had chosen any profession in the liter
arv world he could easily have beei
S-among the first of any profession. Ii
the. study and practice of medicine
. which he followed for only a few years
he was considered among the best
While he was recognized as a leader i:
the politics of his state, often his coun
' set was sought on many difficult prob
lems, and while he was looked upon a.
a-financier of great ability, yet his tal
t; ents never showed to better advantag4
than when he was discussing the Bibl
-the Word of God-for which he ha(
is great love and reverence. He studiec
7 it and was able to discuss it intelligenty
with our best theologians. A man oJ
large means, he helped the poor and
t needy when he considered such help was
'n worthily bestowed. Many who receivec
help at his hands will rise up and call
him blessed. H.

WITH OURI
The proposal to appint a committee
of five to investigate the feasibility of
establishing a brick plant on the state
farms and operating it with convict la
bor met with favor in the house. The
resolution to this effect by Mr. Lee of
Spartanburg was sent to the senate by
a large vote.
With the intention of protecting mort
gagors from unscrupulous mortgagees,
the house passed to third reading a bill
I providing the manner in which mort
gages for personal property shall be
executed. The opinion seemed to be
widely current in the house that mort
gagees of personal property had fre
quently imposed upon mortgagers, es
pecially when the latter were illiterate.
I The bill passed was a substitute bill by
the judiciary committee for the bill in
troduced by Mr. Wallace. The bill fol
lows:
Section 1. That all mortgages of per,
sonal property made by any persor
shall be executed in the presence of twc
disinterested persons and who are not
related to the mortgagee either by ties
of blood or marriage and who are not in
the employ of the mortgagee; said per.
sons shall hear the mortgage, which
shall be executed in duplicate, read and
explained to the mortgagor, after which
said persons shall subscribe their names
to said mortgage as attesting witnesses.
All mortgages of personal property not
executed in accordance with the provis
ions of this act shall be null and void:
1'ovided, That this act shall apply only
h mortgages of $50 or less.
",is act shall become effect

are to go to the game protection
fund to be redistributed Dropor
tionately among the counties al
Sthe end of the year for the school
Sfund, after deducting the cost ol
renforcing the game lavws in the
lseveral counties.
The house refused to strikE
out the enacting words of thE
Sbill by a vote of 63 to 47.
Mr. Liles of Orangeburg, in
explaining his resident hunters
license bill, said that it would
Sbenefit the farmers by prevent
ing the destruction of insectivor
Ious birds. Thirty-nine states,
tie said, already had the law.
Mr. Toole of Aiken declared
that the title should be changed
1to read "a bill to protect the
Shunting preserves of northern
millionaires," as this would bE
its principal effect.
Mr. Berry of Orangeburg said
jthat the bill was "'aimed for thE
protection of the city sport, whc
was able to buy his license, and
Sthe big landowner."
Mr. Searson of Barnwell said
t~hat the bill would prevent dep
redations on game.

He says it is a physical impossibility
for four physicians to look after nearly
1,700 patients, in addition to their other
duties.
The most distressing phase of life in
this institution is the utter lack of work
and play for the patients, under the
supervisionof a teacher. The weekly
dances are given in winter and the mov
ing picture shows during summer. Di
versional occupation is unknown.
During the past year 224 patients
were discharged as improved and 109
as unimproved, while 560 died. There
is no after care or placing out system.
There is no special provision for the
tubercular insane.
There is no way to segregate the pel
legrins. The importance of this is
shown in the following table, taken in
part from the 90thl annual report of the
hospital:
Year Admitted, Recovered. Died.

Dr, Herring says that from the above
statements it is evident that the asylum
"does not in any way conform to the
standards existing in a modern hospital
for the insane."
The fire protection is entirely inade
quate. Not only are these buildings
veritable firetraps in their present con
dition, but the lack of fire extinguishers
and the condition of the hose, as found
in some of the wards, makes the danger
from fire a real and terrible disaster to
contemplate.

If all signs don't fail in dry
weather the wedding bells will
ring in Pickens in about five
months and Pickens' loss will
be Cateechee's gain. Building
on a certain lot in the towns of
Cateechee for nothing. Well,
old bachelors get in the notion
to marry sometimes and we
have always thought a doctor
ought to be a married man any
how. Well, we will quit on
that subject for fear we tell
something.
We notice a certain corres
pondent to this paper objects to
our solons making the term of
auditor, treasurer, county supt.
*of education four years instead
of two. We see only one thing
lacking in the bill to be all 0.
K. and that is to include the of
fice of county commissioners.
The writer has always advo
cated a four year term for all
county officers, even the magis
trates, and biennial sessions of
the general assembly. It cost a
man something to run for an
office now and when a man is
elected and goes to SO much ex
pense, saying nothing about the
trouble of moving to town, he
should be allowed to hold that
office as long as four years, pro
vided he is competent and hon
est and if he is not we have a
law to put him out and put in a
man who is. [The terms of the
two county commissioners of
Pickens county were recently
made four years each.-Ed.]
W,,e are glad to see Hon. J. P.
Carey, Jr., trying to e-et a law
enacted to punish cowards for
taking little old cheap popgun
pistols which with a bottle of
the devil's pop skull are causing
so many lives to be taken. The
readers of this paper will no
doubt remember a piece we
gave on this subject through
the columns of The Sentinel
a yee ago. Mr. Carav'
