LAU HENS, S. 0., Feb. 2?, 1002. Our Soious. Tho Gonoral Assembly adjournod finally on Saturday morning last after sitting forty days which is tho limited number for which they can be paid. Wo have watched their proceedings with Interest and are lmprossed that they havo dono tho Stato good and faithful service. Tho jury law and the law as to coun ty ofllces was in a terrible jumblo on their assembling, but these matters, we believe, aro satisfactorily untan gled. Trusts and child labor were leading questions beforo thorn but both havo been satisfactorily adjusted without rad ical action. Many matters, more or less consequential, must wait future deter mination. The body has not been extravagant but has shown itself liberal. Tho big appropriation for Confederate pensions gives greater reason for a watchful ad ministration Of tho pension law. There was a slight disposition to create new ofllces and llttlo disposi tion to out oil' usolcss ones. It Is use less now for us to enumerate. What Is dono Is dono. what is undone is undone. The peoplo of Laurons are not a nar row set and will take a liberal view of votes cast by our immediate represen tatives. The Advertiser specially takes occasion and takes pleasure in stating that they have usually been In their seats at the right time and have been watchful of the Interests of their constituents. At 5 o'clock Saturday evening last tho General Assembly became history. As affecting Laurens she gets an ex tra term of court, presumably In May of each year. Time for paying taxes extended to 31st of March. Amendment.- to the pension law do not go into effect this year. Salaries and fees of Laurens oOlclals do not materially differ from announce ments hitherto made. Tho Assembly sat forty days and pocketed the last farthing allowed by tho law. Wo are inclined to think that they earned their per diem. **# Do In Rome as Rome Does. Representative Wheeler, of Ken tucky, has made a great speech In Con gress which is attracting attention. It seems the speech attacks the toadyism of the present Washington administra tion in many things and especially for preparation to give Prince Henry, the representative of Emperor William, a decent reception. We do not know from what part of the country of the land of Boone Representative Wheeler halls, but very likely from tho land of Blue Grass, the aristocratic racer and tho proud shorthorn. Association with these would entail tho right to speak in Congress in contemptuous terms of even older rulers and older blood than such comparative newcomes as the Hohenzollerns. Still it is a good rule to do in Rome as Rome does. We havo no right to a place In the world except as a people and a nation wo do as other peoplo do and conform to good man ners. If we had proposed to be entirely Democratic we should havo adhered to a big log cabin on the banks of the Potomac for our capitol with Indian scalps, coon skins, buck horn9 and other emblems of native prowess hung around the walls but we are constrain ed by tho conditions of civilization to associate with France, Belgium, En gland, China, Japan and Russia, the land of the Cossack, and it becomes us therefore to bo at least decent. So when the Emperor's brother is sent here to represent him upon a social oc casion, oven tho Republicans ought not to be supposed such barbarians as to fall in the ordinary duties of hospital ity. Jefferson, the richest boy in America passed a great doal of time in Franco and there became inculcated with most of his democratic ideas, yet at Montlcello, In addition to his two or three hundred slaves, kept two Italian vine dressers that ho might have choice grapes for his foreign visitors (and by the way Jefferson's home was the Mecca of all foreigners who visited this country in Its early days.) We are not to go back and live on ash cake and roasted potatoes, as Marlon is re puted to havo done, simply beoauso we are democratic and bellovo that repub licans are not to bo trusted with this government, as dlsingonous, wasteful and tyrannical where thoy have the power and are not afraid. V There was a deep feeling of interesb in 111 tie Teddy Roosevelt, when his parents wore called to his bedside re cently in Massachusetts. Notwith standing the Washington dining inci dent, there was cloarly as much con cern throughout tho South as in any other part of the country. There seems to be several sides to RooEOvelt's character, especially a frank, chival rous nature, which addresses itself to the spontaneity and generous impulses of tho Southern people. The South believes that Teddy carries his heart on bis sleeve. When ho comes down South to soe,our Exposition and meet our p<\>plo in March, swarms from B' .irtnore to Oalveston will bo. there t?oheer him. ? * * Susan B. Anthony and Carrie Chap man Catt, Captain and able Lieutenant, were before tho committees of both houses of Congress during last woek. Miss Anthony has proseouted the cause of Woman* Suffrage thirty-four year*. The lesson of patience and perseverance furnished by Miss Anthony ought to bo of some value. WITHDREW THE INYITATION. Roosevelt Objecto to Tillman's Dining With Him. Another incident has sprung out of the flstlouff between the South Caro lina Senators. President Roosevelt invited Senator Till ?nun to a dinner at the White House, given last night in honor of the German, Prince Henry. The invitation was tendered because of Senator Tillman being the ranking Democrat on tho Senate Naval Affairs Committee. The President sent for Senator Cookreil, of Missouri, and told him that since the Senate had de clared Mr. Tillman in contompt, it would be an affront to tho Senato and discourteous to tho Prince for Tillman to bo at tho dinner. He requested Cockrell to ask Tillmau to withdraw his acceptance of the invitation. This, Cookrell did, and Senator Till man ilatly refused to comply. Cock rell bo communicated to the President who then had his Secretary, Mr. Cor telyou, to write a note to Senator Till man withdrawing the invitation. Senator Tillman says that Roosovelt has Insulted him. He denies that ho is in contompt of the Senato and claims that as dueling is out of fashion, there was nothing for him to do when ho was given the lie but to respond with a blow. * The scene in the Senate of tho Unitod States in which Tillman and McLaurin wero actors is greatly to be rogrotted if the good name of the State is rogarded As a matter of fact a few of us like to call ourselves Carolinians, notwithstanding wo are absorbed in a nation, and have some regard for the supposed charac ter of Carolinians. For these tho fisti cuff light between the two Senators is a serious and greatly regrotted incident Those had thought that aftor Judge Longstreot's Bob Durham and Bill Stallion's and "the native Georgian," bloody noses were relegated to the slums. Tillman was making a speech about the Filipino taxes when he al lowed himself to be rounded up and shoved into a defile by Senator Spooner of Wisconsin, necessitating an assault upon the jun*or Senator of South Car olina. Tillman's big blunder was in al lowing himself handled by Spooner. We trust hereafter he will handle him self with more care . McLaurin is to bo congratulated on being so carefu'ly groomed by the Republicans. ?*? During last week at Washington the D. A. It. (If any body knows what they are) met in great conclave. One of the material questions was the basis of representation hundreds or thousands. Tho country is to be congratulated upon tho survival of so many Daugh ters of tho Patriots. Thoro must be hope for tho country. Our friends in California and Wyoming need feel no further apprehension about John tho Chinaman. *?* Miss Stone, the missionary, long in the hands of Bulgarian banditti, has been released by the payment of about $70,000. It turns out that the husband of a fellow missionary was in complic ity with tho thieves. Until those ras cals are punished there aro many who will be dissatisfied. *?* Mr. Aull, the publisher of tho New berry Herald and News, had his office injured by firelastweek. Though pro tected by insurance, the inconvenience resulting upon a small fire is necessa rily great. HEADS SHOULD NEVER ACHE.

If the Spring oats should fail the land can bo planted In corn, peas or sorghum, all of which are val uable and popular crops. Mr. N. B.

Motes, nee Miss Abble Worthington, died at her home in Greensboro, Thursday, Jan. 20th, 1902, and was brought to her old homo and laid to rest in the Old Union Cojnotory by tho side of her father and mother, who preceded her to tho grave many years ago. Abbie was twenty years and eight month* old. Throe years ago she was happdy married to John D. Motes, of South Carolina, and since his marriage had lived In High Point until a few weeks before her death they had moved to Greonsboro* Mrs. Motes had been sick only about a week, and all was done for her that was possiblo by two physicians, un af fectionate husband aud a loving brother, and other friends, but noth ing could be done by any of us to relieve her suffering unt'l her Sa viour came and took her to her home above, where no pain, sorrow, sin or death can come. Abbie professed roliglon and joined tho M. E. Church, South, whon about twelve years of age and hay lived a happy Christian lifo since. It can well bo said that Abbie was loved by all who knew her. She was always a favorite among her schoolmates and was lovod by evory one. She leaves a busband and one little boy seventeen months old, Macio Shubal, aud four sisters and two brothers, Mrs. S. C. Lassitor and Mrs. Benj. Rodge, of High Point: Mrs. Joel llobins and Miss Annie Worthington, of Lyons; Mr. J. M. Worthington, of Sophia; Mr. S. G. Worthington, of Greensboro. She was a dear wife, a loving mother, a kind sister and a true friend. We loved her, yos wo loved her, But Angels loved her more; And they nave sweetly called her, To yonder shining shore.
