During tho war of secession, corn only yclept "tho lato unpleasantness'' oat Invaluablo word "skedaddle" camo nto vogue. Its first use was attributed fifanIrish laddio who was a Confede rate artilloryman. His battery was hard pressed by tho blue coats and as thoy crowded to close quarters ho cried out: "Glvo them grape, glvo them moro grape!" and grapo was accord singly administorod. Tho blue coats got up and got, while Paddy exclaimed: "Ah! Tho buggors, tho buggers, they skedaddle, thoy skodaddlo." The* thing bocamo classic. A few days ago tho Rlngsters of tho j S'ipromo Court decided tho Dispensary Act tinconstltutlonal. Governor Till 1 jnun at this juncture went up to Rock Hill to soo about tho Woman's Indus , trial College. It was a pure matter of business.

Alas, for tho uncharitablonoss of this wicked world! Shall a Governor have no rost! Oldor civilizations than tho Ameri can States have tackled the liquor evil and othor social evils and failed. If we have failed in our beautiful and novol experiment, let us not take it to heart and call bad names; let us all get togothor, bo in good humor and with ono heart meet the responsibili ties of tho future. The South may woll bo of good cheer. Thousands, and tons of thousands of ragged, house less and homeless unemployed and starving men tramp tho highways of tho rich and gulloless North. One of our contemporaries writing of .the dissenting opinion of Judge Pope cites the case:'"It Is the hand of Esau but tho voice of Jacob." Gov.

Pat downed a tine stout gum, cut off ten foot and went to work on it with maul aud wedge. At noon he had made no impression and callod on tho farmor for a little whlskoy. Late in tho nftor noon Pat had about exhausted his whiskoy and muscle aud no impression on tho gum; a cloud passing, a bolt of lightning shattered a great oak near by when Pat, looking to the cloud, ex claimed: "Faith, I wish you would try your hand on this follow." That Is a smart young town, Flor onco. A bar room was promptly opened In that city, tho seller of strong waters arrested and hold In duranco vllo, and Attornoy Nottlos had gone to Columbia with a habeas corpus writ, for the Supreme Court to sign when Gov.

A liquor case for the Supromo Court can bo made by some municipal olllccr arresting a soller without llcenso and who will not consult or bo consulted by Governor or Attornoy General. Such is tho suggestion of a Laurens Attor ney. _ Democratic Sonators have made a crazy quilt of the Tariff Bill as It went up from the House, it will pass, but is only a slight Improvement on the Mc Kinley Act. It is now said that tho President will approvo the bill removing the tax on State Banks, and also tho Incomo Tax. It looks liko a Democratic lovefeast.
