C. ^ THURSDAY, JAN 19, 1905. ( Make it Unanimous. Among the duties devolving uVui j ? the present legislature is the election of two circuit judges, one of whom , ' will succeed Judge Ernest Gary, of | the Fifth Circuit. There raav be' r . * 1 * . other lawyers in the Fifth circuit capable of filling this office as well ^ as Judge Gary has tilled it, but tlicy ] are certainly not numerous; and to a?a wUa Una crv rlynrnnrrlilr 1 fcp MH/C vur Tt ll\J I1UO OU V UVI Vll^UM | ft, demon strand his peculiar fitness for J this high and responsible position with a new and untried experiment would argue not only a lack of ap-1 preciation for service well rendered, j but also indicate a sad lack of judg- j lueut and discretion 011 the part of a body to whom is delegated the power ; 1 to make and unmake high officials! according U the dictates of their , fancy. To say tha t J udge Gary has proved 1 himself an able, fearless, upright and conscientious judge would be 1 biu simple justice to one who in point of learning aud legal acumen * 1 c is admittedly without a superior on the bench. j While we have no idea that serious opposition to Judge Gary's re- ' election will de velop, at the same < time it would-be a graceful and ap- ' propriate compliment, out of recognition of his eoiineut worth, for the l legislature to make his election f - unanimous. (Joverpor Hevward has refused to I consider thp third term idea. In ( fact he has definitely announced Ins } withdrawal from politics at the J close of tfve second term. It now looks as though Calhoun county, formed from portions of Edgefield, Green wo-k! and other ] counties, will win out, as the State j] board of canvassers has failed to'l sustain the protest from Edgefield 1 county as to the legality of the i . I ^ election involving the creation of the1 new county. A bill has bden introduced in the legislature making it equivalent to a blow for ore person to apply to another certain offeasivo epithets. As a matter of fact public opinion has already nude the aggressor the person who uses insulting language toward another, and it seems that uch a law might very properly be added to the statute bx>k. - ? ! A good deal is heing said m the way of criticism of the government ou acconut of its eitiinate of the cotI ton crop of 1904, based ou'the cotton! ' ! I ginnera' report. Last year wheu the! { same report raised the price of cot | too it was esteemed a laudable enter- I f prise, if we ren.otnber aright. The ! j thing for the farmers to do is to re- 1 dace the cotton acreage, diversif y j their crops and let the government report take ea: e of itself. peft-j (PlfaSNiciiu's.
