Saturday, February 13. 1S97.
AIKE\, Charleston, and Greenvi:'c
asked to be excluded from the act < f
1S96 probibiting county treasurers
from publishing itemized statements in
the newspapers. Fairfield remains in
the act. Taxpayer No. 1 and Taxpayer
No 2 will have to see our delegation
about it.
ARKANSAS has a Senator who h:;
never made a speech in the Sen te,
although he has been there six years.
Rhode Island likewise has one who
has kept silent. South Carolina has
one who has possibly made one speech.
Perhaps, the country at large wouid
be better off, if we bad more silent
Senators.
IT is all very well to cut salaries
when they are too h'gh, but cheap
work is generally poor woi k. It
seems to us that :the salary paid our
County. Stpervisor is little encugh.
His services are fully worth what he is
now getting. It is not h.-)w cheap we
can get public officers to serve us tht
should be our principal aim, but horr
efficiently. Some men might content
to take an office now paying $2000 for
$10 per month, but the state would be
worse off for their services.
SENATOR ARCUER wants to tkach the
people good manners by legi-lation.
He offered a bill making it a misde
meanor to spit on the fl-or of a6irch
or the flonr of a court hou-e.> Anot ber
illustration of trying to re'uare things,
which must be lett i,~ adjust tham
selvs. Good breeding must teach a
man that in a church is -not the place
4t tand the Geperassermblv,
Testatiutes onght not to be burdened
with such legislation, bnt if so, then
an act should be passed to cover all of
- the rules of good manners. It should.
he made a misdenieanor for a man not
to- list his hat to a lady, not to offer her
a seat in a crowded room, car or elsc
* ~ where. I*. should be 'made a mnisde
meanor to spit on anybody's privat&
fioor. It should be a misdemennor to
do or not to do a few thousand other
things, .which are considered 3reper
or improper in polite society. The
truth is that if all i0 e raies of good
manners were foramated, it would
cover a great deal of space. Af ter all,
our manners must be liarn?ed at home.
Good manners are a credit te any
people, but we mnst not look to legis
lation to cnltivate them.
THE argument is all on the side of
the public;printing bill. One. of the
reasons urged against the bill is that
bigher prices will *be pa-id. Those
who make this point show t bat they
have not even considered the:w >rds of
the bill. It expressly provides th~at
no higher rates shull be ipaid (11 an are
now paid to the public pr:nmer. A
maximum rate being fixed by law, it
is idle to t-clk about the public prinming
costing any more than..the limit fixed.
* The bill requires the bidder to whom
the work is given to furni,h a bond,
so tbat the State will be fully f>ratected
against irresponsible partief. This is
a plain businessimat ter, and th's ~bond
is required to be fallgsecured. If the
surety is not sufficient,-the anthorities
have the right to reject the bond.
The real merit of the bill is that the
printing is let to the lowest bidder,
and the State will reap !the benefit of
competition. We have no objec;ion to*
this work being done by the present
public printer, and we are liberal
enongh to wish that he may succeed
in so managing his business that be
may relieve himusely of the buidens
which he now has to bear. But no
citize 1 has the right to demand that
he must thrive at the expense of the
State. If the General Assemb y can
he~ the printing done cheaper, and
save the taxpayers money, they should
db it. It is not a question of politics;
it is not a question of whether it is to
the interest of Mr. A or Mr. B to pass'
this bill. It is simply a question of
Swhether it is to the inter st of the tax
payers.

CLEVELAND TO STiDY THEOLOGaY.
Washington, Feb. 4.-I a-' assured
by one who asserts that he has it from
the best ant horityv. that President
clevelan:d intelis ~to devote the rc
mainder of hi; life to the study of
theology. That, says my informant,
is the exph1nation of the remova! of
the President and his family to Priuc -
toll.
"I. is an iuheited trait of the Cleve
land family to dwell upon things
sacred," .ays ;bi; gent!c:nan, who, i
may be stated, has ben a frequent
and welcome caller at the w' i:0 house,
"and as 31r. ,leveland i:creaAes in
years, he has developed anew those
serious tendenciet which he h::d quite
eor:y in life, but which were tem
porarily interrupted by hi, en ance
into poli:ics, when he was inpelied to
conduct bijnneif after the maiuer of
politicia1s of the kind which oten be
sins a greater c..reer by rou-bing in
the war' school. Clevel ..d was
never quite in his en- cnt among the
city politicia:Is of Duffalo, ' t it was
necessar he should do as 4hey did
that the gryater good of after years
might be accomplished by. his eleva
tion to the Governorship and the
Presidedcy.
"During all theses years, when tj
i -e d asomewhat riotous way of
living, the undercurrent of piety ran
strong within bim, and he was at
times tempted to break away from it
all and assume holy orders, as mnor'e
than one of his nearest relatives had
done. But to turn upon one's lively
companion.is not the casiest- thing in
life and Cleveland remained with
them, doing as the Buffalo Ro.mans
did, and ianidedl in the Prcskd'acy.
a "If the PrcsiTent has not s.hown evi
dence of deep religious convictionsl
while he has been an inhabitanlt of the
White House, it a.u mainly because
he detested all that would be construed
into an effectation of a quality that
few would have believed was niatural
or sincere; but I can assure vou that
the feeling was theC e, andi far stronger
in its influence upon his drily- walk
and conversation that even his most
frequent a;sociates would have be
lieved. His fishing excursions were
really for the purpose of meditation,
and when.he was supposed to be gu
ning for ducks, O th 11o feeling more
exalted tea a love of such iport, he
was conning and.pondering~ those ab
struse problems wilen must lie close
to the soul of even that man who has
suffered the grousest violation of his
spiritual bei:g by imperative associa
joni with the oratal c'>mpanionshi'
that is to be found in its highest de
velopment in the lowest circles of po
litical life. What direction the
thoughts of the PreAident took at these
solemn moments no one can tell, and
no one should attemnpt to discover.
Suffice it to say that it has been hinited
mcrely in the~ most delicate way, by
some who wcre is con imons on
these marine ex:ursionsF, thlat fish and
duck were the least of ils ambitions
andi that i olation1 and miitation,
such as the antique ter:mits were wout
to seek, were th.e grand purposes
which led him~ 'o frequtently to divorce
himself from his, official duties at
moments that~ were a!mnoet critical in
the public work.
"This will furraish a cin to the re
markable decision of the President
to pint himself at Princeton, the axis
around which revolves the best that is
left of the old orthodoxy. There in
affectionate association with em'nent
professors, the knightly defenders of
the Calvinist vie- - of this life and the
life to come, the ex-President will
live the life of a pure and godly per
son, aelving ever deeper and deeper
into the mysteries of the phsychic
forces, bringing to-bear upon them ti,at
grasp of thought that has marked his
treatment of so miany public questions.
[t was this impulse that le:1 him.
possibly with unc.ne and short-sighted
ea!, into the moveenlt for arbirra

peared in thsote prospective treaties.

quality of food that could only be
gratef 11 to bis appetite for adulation,
airl which'appealed ?o vanity rather
than spirituality.' I look upon this as
really the greatest act of Mr. Cleve
land's life. It is a glorious example
for the youth of the country, for one
who has won the higheat public honors
to prove by his later life that all
worldly aggrandiz3ment is but foolish
ness and vexation, and hat the true
ambition of a really great mind should
be to ponder and solve the mysteries
of eternity, giving only that attention
that is unavoidable to the petty con
siderations of what shall be eaten and
worn.'
I do not vouch for the truth of this
view of Mr.* Cleveland's momentous
conclusiou 'o ",eitle" at Princeton,
but st seems to offer an explanation of
somethingetbat has lhither4 been un- I
explained. The Clevelands were sup
posed to have been wedded to New'
York for the winter and Buzzard's
Bay for the summer, and it mest have
been a powerful incentive that could
lead one of the President's tast e to fixc
upon s. hundirum a place as Princeton

Robinson Crusoe's island, which
was reported to bave been swallowed
up by the ea, is doing business at its
ld stand. What was swallowed up
turns out to have been certain kegs of
ruim, which formed p".rt of the cargo
f a ship which saild~ for the island
from Valparaiso. The captain kept
systematically tipsy and could not fmnd
the island he was after, and had to
invent a story to justify his return to
port.
The fable teaches (what some fable
eaches every day) that we must not
elieve all we read. If any word
omes, for instance, that Caba hasi
een blown up to keep it from the
Spanards, don't believe -it. Cuba is
till there, and still a source of grief
and apprehension to everyone inter
sted in It. Its chief export now is
ies, all of which find a ready market
