WISACKY.
Winerky. Feb. 2.?Mr. Bleaae is
now governor of South Carolina, and
no one knows the difference, but the
whiskey constables and the notaries.
The governor's inaugural address was
a novel production for such an oc?
casion. Though he offered some nice
and timely suggestions to our law
making body, yet the greater portion
of his speech sounded like he was
pleading hi!* own case before a Jury.
South Carolina must certainly have
fallen to a low state of morals, as
to require a committee of Investiga?
tion to Inquire Into the acts of her
officials. To have their work investl- I
gated under the same charges pre?
ferred against her officials. But If
there Is ground for such action, I
hope It will be done, and done thor?
oughly.
We have had excellent w< atlur for
farm work, and the farmers have
made good use of it for preparing
our lands for another crop. Some of
our farmers have broken all their
land f'?r planting with two-horse
plows.
Very little fertilisers have been
hauled so far. but that does not mean
that It will not come. I know of one
young farmer who has ordered 100
tons
Mr. Frlerson Held and family are
now settled in the home formerly oc?
cupied by Mr. W. B. McLeod and he
la Installed aa bookkeeper for W. W.
DesThamps A Co. No doubt they
will prove quite an acquisition to our
little town.
The youngest child of Mr. Genie
PulUnt Is critically ill. Everything
that human skill can do is \>> lag
done for its relief, and we pray that
the precious life may be spared to
the fond parents.

The letter of Governor Bleass, gh
en to the p: < ? today, follows:
"Yours of the Id received, in re?
ply will statt- th:?t I SRI informed that
the Hon. 15. R Tillman is a United
sXatOS Senator and trustee of Clem
sen and Winthrop colleges.
"That the Hon. Francis II. West on
is a State Senator and trustee of th<
University of South Carolina.
"That the Hon John O. Richards
is a State Senator, a trustee of Clem
sou College and pres'dent of the hoard
of trustees of Clemson College
That the Hon. i>. j. Bradham is
a trustee of the Colored College an.1,
a magistrate.
"That the Hon. 1>. W. MoLaurln U
land agent of the sinking fund ami
trustee of Wllnthrop College.
"At the time of the message you
Spsah of in your letter the Hon. Hart
\\ei! M. Ayer was a memher of the
House of Representatives and I
trustee of the state Reformatory,
"The Mon. I* M. GaSQUS was a
memher of the House of LloprOSOntU
tlves and a memher of the hoard of
fish commissioners of South Carolina.
There may he others. I have not
lal en the pains to look the matt- r
up. These have hcen called to my
attention, and believing that each ol
the positions h\ Id hy them, rsspoct?
Ively, came within the meaning of the
State Constitution, 1 sent in the mes?
sage referred to.
"Article .1, Section 14, of the Con?
stitution of 1895, r?ads: 'No person
shall he eligihle to a seat in the Gen?
eral Assemhly while he holds any
office or position of profit or trust un?
der this State, the Cnited States of
America or under n-.y other Power,
etc.*
"If the trustee ,,f a college lASt
handles hundreds of thousands ol
dollars and by his vote may expend
the same is not a position, I am at a
loss to know the moaning ol the worn,
if a railroad commissioner or a Unl
tod States Senator is not an office I
am badly misinformed.
"The Constitution says 'or under
any Other Power ' Can a man hold
an offiee or position without it heing
under some Power'.' Is a man's wil\
donating large amounts Ol money to
he held in trust for B certain purpose,
a power, and Is not one of the trust -
SOS holding a position of trust?
The gupreme Court of the State,
in the case of Hopkins against Clem
son College, holds that the hoard of
trust- es are Stale ofBsors and holds
that, for that reason, they Cannot be
BUed, and dismissed Hopkins' COJ1
I hunt. The question is now hefore
the Supreme Court of the Cnited
gtatoa
"if your committee holds that
th- se men are not State otflcers, then
I suhmit that the General Assemhly
Should pass an Act allowing these
men to hrlng their SUlt While 1 think
these Is no merit in their claim, yet
If the Supreme Court is wrong these
men should have ? right to s trial
hy a Jury.
"Article Seetion I, of the Con?
stitution, provides! 'Hut no parson
Sail hold IWO Offices Ol honor or
profit at the same time.'
"Jt is needless for nie repeat

Tin- committee had writt- n, askin ,
for information.
Governor Bleaae made an error In
the portion of his letter to the in
vestlgatlng committee, refi rrlng to
Senator Francis Ei. Weston, of this
county, who is not a truatee of the
Untveralty of South Carolina. He
?was at one time, but following the
adoption of the state Conatlutlon h*.
resigned, under the very construction
of thai instrument the Governor
now seeks to enforce. Senator Wes?
ton was very much surprised tonight
when informed that he was named in
Governor's letter.

send another letter to the Investigat?
ing committee, correcting the error
about Senator Francis H. Weston.

PRAISE STATE FARMS1 WORK.
( ommcdation Contained in Commit?
tee's Annual Report,
Columbia, Feb. B,?The work done
on the State farm Is highly eommend
? ?i In the annual report of the com?
mittee on pena! and charitable in?
stitutions, which has been sent to the
General Assembly, The report refers
? specially to the Heid and DeSaUSSUre
farms
"Your committee ennnot be too em
lie in its commendation of the
management and work done on tin .41
farms. Without manning to be of?
ficious or overreach our duty in the
premises, we make bold to suggest
that the Legislature visit these farms
and acquire a personal knowledge of
conditions and the work being done."
The State farms contain approxi?
mately H.OOO acres. A conservative
?tlmate of the value of th i two farms
is 1300,000. The committee asks,
"Where would the State tind a pur?
chaser?"
The committee comes to the con?
tusion that, should the Gt neral As?
sembly Visit the State farms, that all
Idea of selling them would be dis?
sipated.
The returns last year from the State
f?ins were as follows, according to
the report, were: DeSaussure farm.
$7.746.25; Heid farm, $13,124.95; Lex?
ington farm, $10,225.99, besides sup?
plying a large amount Of the pro?
visions used In feeding not only the
Convicts at the farms, but those that
work at tiie Penitentiary proper.
The statement is made that if the
State did not have these sources to
draw from then a large appropriation
would have to be made to feed such
i f th? convicts as were in the Peni?
tentiary. The most of the convicts
working on the farms are life-time
prisoners and, "if we are correct that
su h ought not and could not be uti?
lized on the country chain gangs, then
the farms are necessary to giv.? them
? mployment." it Is suggested by the
committee that there is immediate
need Of new stockades at the farms,
and that they are informed that the
need win soon be remedied.
The committee made report on the
Penitentiary, and highly praised the
I ualneai manner in which the institu?
tion has been managed by 1). J.
Irl filth, the superintendent. The in1
?titutlon turned over to the 8h I Tr< as
urer the sum of $70,0un as a char
profit last year.
