The PaJmetlo I'ost, the, most | widely circuitpd t newspaper in j IJpauforf,.Col Elliott's owu.cQun-1 ty, comes oat boldly, with, ''For j Oppress, Joseph Walker Barn- j well, at the. head of its editorial j column.

Charleston county lias been rep resented in the senate by some o the ablest men in the community during the past few years, tin quality of her representation in the upper house showing no deterioration from the elder days, in tnort or less striking contrast to the state ol the house delegation. It wault be.impossible to find abler men in the, community than those wlir have represented Charleston it the State senate during the pas! Smvthe. Huist and Barn well are in the front ranks of oui public men, and their presence it the State councils has been a sat' isl'action and a strength. The present senator, Mr. Barnwell, ha; upheld tlie best traditions of tin community he represented ani: has borne his office with dijiniti and ability. In filling the place he has made vacant by his retire meat, there should be no lowerin: of the .standard set by bis predecessors and maintained by him The office is one of great import anee. In some respects it is the most important of all the offices to be voted for thjs summer. None but the best men should be con sidejred for it. Charleston Post. Get Rich and Then Wbat? Some years ago Mr. Carnegie, the rich steel manufacturer, said that it was a disgrace for a man tc die in the possession of millions People then thought that he was insincere in his utterances. But he seems honestly striving to carry out his idea., lie has recently retire! from business, and during last year alone he gave away ovei five million dollars for the estab li^hment of public libraries in different towns and cities. lie is intensely loyal to everything Americanos any one can perceive who reads his writings. Ana tc read alter birn is to catch the lire of patriotism and enthusiasm foi bur country, and every institution that belongs to it. In this day ot increasing riches it might be well for the possessors to inquire how they may best use them. The example of Mr. Carnegie is a striking one, and worthy of being followed by others, He is a noble example of a man who accumulated millions of dollars, and yet remained rn.Ver ol them. Too. many rich men be come slaves of rroney and lo^c sight of the highest ends ofjile.
