C, Deo. 21, 1897. The Charleston l'ost. This independent Journal roforring to tho attitude of the ADVKRTIS?R that South Carolina has no rule that a Govoruor must nood have two terms, suggosts that Tin; ADVEKTISER op posos tho re-eleetion Of Governor Kl lorbe. lu this our contomporary mis tokos us. Wo admit that we aro to he claised, possibly among the Ish maellitos, but we are not antagonizing our Governor. When the tiold Is full, wo will take our choice. Don't set us down yet awhile as lighting Governor Ellorbo. If he shows himself stout and brave and honest, himself the Go.eruor, no trimming with tlmosorv ors und solftfoekers, wo shall he for El lerbo. The voters aro watching closely, thoy have been "educated" a llttlo by Tlllman and tho times, and thoy will eloot a man Governor who is "his own man" and who will conserve tho honor of tho Slate and not the in terest of Individual men and parti sans. Wo so hope ami trust. Governor Ellorbo has fallen Into tho weaknoss of many peoplo?tho task of Bottling the whiskey question and enacting sumpt uary laws for tho State. He has joined hands In putting tho State into o dirty trado, and thore has boon muoh blood and murder, a great increase of ollieers aud much corruption. Tho State has boon a mlsorable stow for six years.? It Is no easy task to pull her out of It. Wo will see what a year will bring forth. It Is a tlmo for manliness, common souse and statesmanship. The ago of Nebuchadnezzar has passed.? "Thon theso men assomblod uuto the King, Know O King, that the law of tho Modes and Persians Is, That no docroo or statute which tho King es tablishoth may be ehangod." We aro still froo to chooso from among our follow citizens a wise, statosnianliko otlloer to rule over us. Wo are opposed to parttzanship and are not particular from which side of tho lines as drawn for the last six years, ho may come, If j ho answer the diameter we have en- I doavored to draw. In the nioanwhlle, as a "child may understand," the fact that wo discuss the succession of an of ficer a year before his term is out, shows that, the times are out of joint. * * * Commissioner Wllborn for the dele gates from this State to tho Cotton j Convention wired the Governor of the I Empire State of Georgia to know about the mall pox pest at that great city, Atlanta. The Governor referred tho inquiry to the Mayor of that city and had for answer as follows: "Your telegram to the Governor has been handed me for reply. There is absolutely no danger. All cases are thoroughly Isolated outside of tho city. C. A. Collier, Mayor. This, of eourso, was eminently satis factory and the great men of Carolina hesitated no longer to risk their car casses. They reasoned well, notwith standing tho danger. We have tho great men to spare. Again, this view is paramount. The very nick of this Stato should willingly his "quietus tako"' from contamination with the donlzens of Peachtree Street. We ex tend the consolation, however, that Governor Ellorbo has sent only "ease" hardened subjects to Atlanta and there need bo no dire consequences from the visitation to Goorgia. In tho mean while, however, whoro did Mayor Collier lind tho "cases" ho has so care fully "Isolated" in his pest house "out side of tho city?" * A prevailing fad Is to have a jun keting committee traveling the Btato "investigating" the State Farms, tho institution for the blind, tho penitentiary, tho insane hospital, and tho State Colleges. They recom mend to tno General Assembly and aro experts in rhe mysteries of tho Insane, the criminals, tho deaf, dumb, blind and halt, the needs of the "high er" Institutions of learning, and the management of the great penal farms around Columbia. Investigate tho Investigators or got on the committee. *** A merry and joyous Christmas to all tho readers of THE ADVERTISER.? May a bounteous Santa Claus hobble down ovory chimney and fill every tiny stocking. ? * Congress has adjourned fjr the holidays. There Is no reason why they should not have a good time, oxeept a failure of tho turkoy crops and other liquids. If yon have ever seen a little child In a fiaroxysm of whooping cough, or If you lavo been annoyed l>y a constant tickling In the throat, yeu can appreciate tho value of Ono Minute CoukIi Curo, which gives quick rollef.
