Bowman, Jr., has retired' from the editorship of the Bishopville En teir.t. We have received a copy of the annual report of Hon. L. Q. C. Lamar, as Secre tary of the Interior. A large portion of it is devoted to the question of the publbc land4. It is reported from Augusta that the great Three ('s Railroad (ompany has deposited money in bank to pay the in- i debtedness of the Carolina M1idland, and < will commence work soon on the Augusta end of the road. r Tom Woolfolk, of Georgia, has been a convicted of the murder of his fattier and nine members of the family. He was removed from Macon to Atlanta for fear he would be lynched. He takes the mat- t ter very coolly and protests that he is inno cent. One of the main issues before Congress at the present session will be the tariff. t It has been a big question in this country for a long time and is likely to corDnue to puzzle our Statesmen for some lime to come. A compromise of sonie kind is likoly to be agreed upon. t A member of tie House has made the calculation and shows that our law- f making costs the tax-payers just $4.00 a minute. Every five minute speech costs r $20.00, and every call for the ayes and nays costs $80.00. Well, that is about as good a way as .1 any to spend the time, for the cost would likely be the same whether the time be spent in speech-making, calling the ayes and nays, or not. The session in all prob ability would be no shorter, and the per diem no less. We have too much legisla tion any way, and we sometimes think it would perhaps be a good idea to spend the whole of the time in speech-making and calling the ayes and nays, at $4.00 a min ute. The editor of the Columbia Register says that it can be said to the everlasting honor of the present Legislature that there is absolutely no leader in either the * Senate or Hou.se. "Both bodies are thor oughly independent. The spirit of boss -ism is nnmown."~ We have not much use for political bosses down here any way. We gave expression to this sentiment some time ago, when we intimated that those who attempted to be political bosses would sooner or later be asked to take a back seat. We like to see the men who attempt to legislate for the people of a great State "be incorruptible, independ ent, devoted to the State, and brave to duty." This is not only true of our legislators, but the people generally are beginning to do their o*n thinking, and they will suf fer no political bosses to rule over them. We need leaders-able, conscientious men, ' who have constantly in view the public welfare; b)ut the "boss" must go. The bill to establish a separate Agricul tural and Mechanical College has been indeflxiitely postponed by our Legislature, and the appropriation to the South Carolina College has been increased, so as to improve and enlarge the much-abused agricultural "annex" or departmeet of this institution, and to operate it more on the university plan. Some of the advo cates of the Agricultural College, notably, Mr. Tindal, favor giving this plan a fair trial, and if it fails to meet the demands of the friends of agricultural and mechan ical training, then it shall be abandoned aLnd the Agricultural College established. We see nio reason why this should not be made successful, and teach all the science that is necessary to make good, scientific farmers. We believe in the education of farmers, but we have never had much faith in manuel! labor schools. Let this plan have a fair trial, and if it does not meet the requirements of the - ase, then it can be ab)ando'ned and some thing else adopted. LEGISLATIVE NOVES. Coil. A. P'. Butler has been reelected ('ommuissioner of Agriculture by the Leg islat ure. T1he Columbia correspondent oIf the Nucs awl (Courier, says that upwards of ninety new lawn s have been ratitied by thre present Legislature in twenty working days.
