The Legislature adjourned
sine die at 1.45 o’clock.on Mon
day afternoon, having passed
during its thirty-day session
some three hundred acts of more
or less importance. The two
creating the Metropolitan Police
and providing for the Constitu
tional Convention are probably
of the most general interest.
Other important measures act
ed upon were the amendment of
the dispensary law, the exten
sion, until March 1, 1895, of the
time for the payment of taxes,
the reorganization of the militia,
and the provision for the punish
ment of intoxication and the
use of indecent language.
There will be no difficulty in
enforcing any but the last nam
ed Act, and that only so far as
the “intoxication” part of it is
concerned. It is all right to
make the u a of indecent lang
uage a misdemeanor, but is the
State, the only lawfully recogn
ized dealer in liquor, to say how
much of it a man is to be allow
ed to drink after he has paid for
it? Surely that is a matter for
the purchaser to determine! The
more the State sells, the greater
will be the success of the law;
and the more the buyer drinks,
the more the State will sell. It
would certainly seem then that
a new element of patriotism in
the future is to be the ability
on the part of the citizen (cou
pled with an intent) to stow
away as much dispensary liquor
as possible. Under the circum
stances, the only kind of intoxi
cation really unlawful is that
growing out of the use of “blind
tiger” stuff, and the Act should
so state.
badgering a president.
When President Cleveland
went down to Georgetown last
week on a 'luck hunt, he show
ed by the xercise of every re
source at is command that rest
and retir ment were what he
desired above everything else
in the world, and it’s a pity he
could not have been left to the
enjoyment of them. But it was
not to be. Delegations and com
mittees from the shore, on hos
pitable schemes intent, besieg
ed the revenue cutter on which
the unfortunate official had
taken refuge, and insisted
on “showing him some atten
tion”. Enterprising “young
men” representing daily papers
hung around the sides of the
vessel, (they were not allowed
to go on board), and by keeping
an eye open while engaged in
conversation with the captain,
(who talked to them from the
deck, holding them off at arm’s
length), they managed to sur
mise enough about the Presi
dent and his inovements to make
up pretty good newspaper arti
cles to take the place of the
much coveted interview that
they were so emphatically den
ied the privilege of having. The
man wanted to be “let alone”:
why couldn’t his wishes be re
spected? It’s ail very tiresome.
We don’t remember to have
seen anything like it since the
memorable visit of the Princess
Louise to Charleston in 1883.

Our friend of the Florence
Times says in a recent issue of
his paper:
The new fence and oat-buildings
around the Coast Line passenger sta
tion are being touched up by the
painter’s brush, which adds much to
the appearance around our already
beautiful little depot. The Coast
Line never does things by halves. It
is always “whole hog or none.”
Our friend is right in this in
stance, as he generally is. When
it comes to such things as
“fences”, “out-buildings”, “pas
senger stations” “beautiful lit
tle depots”, and “paint”, the
Coast Lino is always “whole
hog or nor-e”—“whole hog” as
to Florence and other favored
stations along the line; “none
as to Dar iugton.
