Ellison 9.~Koitt, of Nowber ry, wants a third party. Would a third party want Col. Koltt? The State must wait. We will name our wise congressmen as soon as they have cut their wisdom teeth. ?t. Patrick's day was duly enjoy ed throughout the world on Tues day last. Every good man on earth who looked upon an Irish man on that day sympathised with his lost cause, and his love for his native land, land of the shamrock, "sweetest Isle of the ocean." Our frisky old friend the Augus ta Chronicle has lowered Its ten dollar a year standard to six, but there aro no evidences of "reduced circumstances" In Its sparkling: pages. The Chronicle Is equlsltoly edited. P. 8.?Augusta Morning paptrs pleaso copy, ?? Princeton Alliance In their reso lutions published last week advise less cotton and more grain and grass. The Princetoniana have the choicest spot of ground in Laurens, or for that matter, in fair Carolina. Take your own medicine, friends, and your health and happiness are secure. We are obliged to Congressman "*-H3helI' for early copies of Census Bulletins. Baurens has a popula tion of 31,610 a gain of 2,1GG In the past decade. Charleston leads with 60,903 closely followed by Berk ley, Spartanburg, Orangeburg and Edgefield in the order named. Bauretis is seventeenth in the roll of thirty-five counties?and in 1901 should lead all tho rest. When the city of New Orleans had suffered lasting disgrace by the failure of the courts to punish _.the. assassins of Hohnessy, thesub soquent action of her people was entirely commendable. As wo understand it, the Mafia la a mutual aid society for pur poses of deviltry only, whose 3ingle ? bond of union Is fellowship In crime. It la a conspiracy beyond tho pale or protection of law and membership in it Is felony. The five thousand men who have done so much to crush out its baneful life deserve the thanks of tho civi lized world. A\Democrat. The State, inv a very pregnant and pertinent article wants to know what a democrat is in this day and time of political fads. The point is peculiarly well taken in South Carolina, as more than oite of our prominent statesmen aro at pains to explain that they are dem ocrats. In the days of the Ken tucky Besolutions with which one Thomas Jefferson is supposed to have had somo remote to-do, tho thing was tolerably well under I stood; in the meanwhile ovolution has beeen going on around us, the environment has been vaccilating and what tho beast is to-day in South Carolina would require a "Baniol como to judgment" to de termine. One James Madison _some years ago is said to have ventured some crude opinions about constitutional limitations and our contemporary might And them in a remote publication of a defunct period called the Federal ist. If our youthful contemporary, however, craves to bo right upon the verge, edge and heel of the time, plump in the swim of the nick of tho moment, wo respect fully invite his attention to tho dellvorances of tho South Carolina convention of the South Carolina .democratic party in their platform, done and ratified under tho nose of our contemporary at Columbia In Soptombor last. Hero ho will find precisely tho stuff that goes to make up a South Carolina demo , oiatof the latest and most ap proved flavor. Our friend can trav el further and push his investiga tion still very near to his own domicile. During tho lato cam paign, a prominent gentleman by way of .exordium to his semi occasional nddiesses was pleased to announce himself as an "old fashioned Edgefleld democrat," no vatfatloni suggeste3, and Inquiry in the quarters indicated might possibly load to light.. This is cloarly a politico -nre'K-oIogleai question and any polntera towards solution, aro valuable at this tlmo. We uro with t ho Spart an burg Her ald In Its proposition that "wo have i Ifi our ranks, thoso whose Joyalfcy Bol question." Wo havo lush room politicians, ?rading their domoora naming one of the thlr eles In their creed. j wM? ivimuii! iivKuu a uiggor in California tho other day. Where are the shrlekers ? The trial of J. 13. Williams eharg. ed with the murder of MhJ. W. A. Williams at Oreenvllle has been continued to tho next term of court for that county. Joseph E. .Johns tone. General Johnstone died in Wash fugton at eleven o'clock Saturday night at the advanced age of eigh ty-four. Twenty-six years have passed since the war was over and the time has come when, in the course of nature, the ranks must be thin ned iiujre rapidly than ever by shot or shell. Still, deeply must the South sorrow for the great sol* dieis who have made her battle fields meet haunts for the spirits of tho bravo. Specialists. The teacher who attempts to teach or reach perfection iu a great number of brandies will succeed in accomplishing or knowing very little. The moderr ^ecept of ed ucation is, he ignor? of nothing, but Sidney Smith sn. i, "My advice is , have the* courage to bo ignorant of a great many things, that you may avoid the calamity of being ignorant of all things.*' I believe thou-ands ot teachers have made a great failure of teach ing by dabbling in too many bran ches of education. In tho dim and misty vistas of tho past, great men and scholars aspired to know everything, but the day of univer sal knowledge Is past. The range of human inquiry has now extend ed to a degree where tho true measure of a man's learning will be tho amount of his voluntary ig norance or the number of studies which hie chooses to let alone, and as with knowledge so with work. I believe anyone who expects to teach In any college should single out from a vast number of studies, some specialty and to that devote himself thoroughly. To become nn expert accountant, mathematic ian, lawyer, linguist or Uno pen man is simply beyond the contem plation of a "country boy profes sor." In this fast age of the world as the field of science is expanding, it will puzzle the wisest and ablest of men to keep fairly abreast of any single branch of knowledge. Once in a while a man appears .in history like Bacon or Dante, or Leonardo de Vinci, who is a real prodigy of genius, and does a great many different kinds of work and does them all well, but tho rarity of such mnn provu tho contrary condition to the rule. E.nerson said, "The ?vay of evil }s dissipation but tho way of wis dom is concentration." Then tho highest ambition will accomplish but little if scattered on a multi plicity of objects; while on tho other hand if one has a thimbleful of brains and concentrates them all upon the subject in hand ho may achieve miracles. I will not deny, however, that there is an inj?rioii* and even an offensive sense iu which a man can be possessed of one idea. A man may become likp a tree with ell its branches on ono side nnd so become a mental and moral defor mity. What would we think of a mnu who was all head or all stom ach or all legs'and arms? Even so a man may become so warped and so mentally ono sided as to practically forget that there is uny tliing else in the world besides his own "trade or profession nnd then he is not a whole man but simjply a distorted fragment. The first thing to be done in hu man culture js to develop as near as possible all tho tacuities aud then ask nature which ono is best adapted ns leader of tho rest, tiuving done this read all the books you can on that subject, and work with an unerring perse veranco. Aim above tho mark you intend to hit nnd fire nnd keep firing and success -will surely crown your efforts. W. P. G. State of Ohio, City of Toledo ) ? Lucas County, ) Frank J.
