OUR PIC D1CA11'NT. Although The Advertiser's views on the conduct of the city. governiment in the past are well known and our views are unchanged, we have no do sire to gloat over the embarrassing situation in which the administration finds itself this morning. We cannot refrain, however, from reminding the mayor and board of aldermen of the suggestion offered when they weti in to oflice somtu hing like a year ago, viz., to study the city charter as the bed-rock of the city's govern ment. We are free to admit that It is ltI hum tuan to take mistakes, but we cannot but think that had the charter heen gi vnii the attention it deserved it wolld not have expired and left us in ucht a tipedinmcaent. The situation which confronts its is one Ihat wi l ir i ire an exhihition of aitIi toward ItL:' oli'ials of yesterday andi good ju(lgiiient inl the solution of thes dilicaltlv. We are a city in all out \ad '(l alpe!rain811dc ; ani the city's busi ncss miulist o l tr(" ..ace'lled in somt.e way. While the otlicials of the chartered city are hardly hatI de facto o!llias to day, we inus;t recy upon theml to carry on such of the city's affairs as are necessary for 'ivie existence. Our streets mutst he cleaned and ligltted; our homes inust be furnished water ati lights, ou1r current expenses must be tme't and many other thitigs mitist be (one that are absolutely necessary to do. To have these thiings done, taxes and accouiints dile hli' city should lhi1e met as if .noth lui had oc curred, as tho city's affairs cannot be condtucted without money. AS to what change.s, if any, should he ilade in the oli harter in case it is offered for renewal, we heave little to suggest. The uaItter has come up rather : uiklenly, so our mind is as yet open on the question. Yet, as a getn cral proposition, we hardly think it can be denied that the old charter made possible too much contralization of power in the hands of one mat. This, we think, should be improved on in some manner. It Is possible that the adoption of the commission form of government would go far to ward correcting many evils existing in our old form of government, but we have not given the matter enough st1dy to express any opinion on it ourselves or to give an intelligent out l i:-le oif it for the btenell t oIf those in Icrested(.

S.) * * " Our newspapers are publishing some old trials that are news to our present generation; that our magistrates had power to sentence a man to be hanged. The Greenville News related the trial of the Davenport negro for insurrec tion. The Abbeville Banner the trial of the liarmore negrocs for the mur der of Maddox. I am going to tell about three noted magistrate trials that occurred here in Laurens county, All in one settlement around Poplar Spring church, and, I think all three were tried by one magistrate, Thomas J. Sullivan. It is wonderful how long these old ofilcers served the people, and how they were respected and what an Influence they had for good in their communities. Joel Smith's man Ike was tried in a magistrate court, and found guilty of the murder of Mr. Manley and was hanged near Brewer ton. Dr. Charley Wolff put up a tent above the Smith store and dissected the body of the negro. Next was the negro of lIabriel South, tried for an attempt to commit rape. lie was defended by Jack Jones, 'Esq., of Abbeville courthouse. He was very rough in the examination of the wo man, and her people resented it and Ihey nearly had a serious time at the trial. The negro was condeimled to he hanged but died in Jail before the day of execution. -The other case was tile inuttest oVerI the body of Aris. I obert Slapiens. IHer husband lied to 'T'exas and was a noted character during the Texas reveluitin tinder tle name of L]avid iBrown and is widely known over Ilie staIe of Texas. Hle has caused as much legislation as any man Ihat eve:' lived In T'exas. There has been (ontinued suits over his lands since his death, and eveni today these suits are going on in the old fields around IleaImont. Our fathers had their peculiar imo pressiolis a1)ot11. tile public executilons. When one was to come off they loaded tip their wagons and sent all their slaves to see the sight. 'T'hey were un der the impression that it would have a deterring inth1enCe upon their lives. If an overseer was killed these days how much do you reckon would lie the amtount of the stit of dianages that would be brought against the land lord? 'I' Auiomobile Drivers! I want to ask you to please slaken y(otr sliced when driving on East Main street. There has been so much rapid. reckless driving that many of our fin est chickens have been run over and killed. It is a great annoyance and loss, af ter we have spent time and money to raise chickens to have themi butchered up in this way. We want. to ask the police force to be on the alert and if this manner of driving is not stopped to see to it that the law Is enforced. "Citizen". Feb. .)n, 19t1.
