Many of the voluminous documents printed are not read, anywav, and are a useless exU p j travagance. h Governor Ansel savs that the - - a j Governor's mansion isn't fit to j ! live in and that the salary is ir 'too small ''to maintain the digui- L ty of the office." Yet there are 01 i J ti ' several gentlemen every whit as ai igood as Mr Ansel, who are willing to worry along on the salary ; and put up with the ramshackle ^ ; old building, too.

Senator Thomas I Jiogers, of larlboro county, will oppose Coressman J E Ellerbe for Congress L*xt summer. Senator Tillman declined the in- " tation extended him by the House ? address that body Tuesday afteroon. The bill to repeal iucome tax law as defeated Tuesday morning, enator Bass voted to continue the ill, which is a polite way of killing The Legislature has refused to icrease the number of scholaiships ) the State university to 124. ery proper; they can hardly find pplicauts for what are offered now.
