the Intention of the department to

appear* to be the Intention of the
authorities Judging from the large
number of the?e banks recently es?

the large and ?maller offices. As the
addition of this extra work In the of?

Is hard to state what amount of

DISK I.<. A HD OF SUNDAY LAWS.
Law* That Arc on Statute Hooks Hut
With Which Peopk' arc Not In
Sympalhv and Openly Violate.
Editor Daily Item:
In your excellent write-up of the
show Saturday night, contained in
yesterday's paper, you very pertim nt
ly ask: "Should the police allow a
show to continue its performance af?
ter midnight, when it laps over Into
Sunday morning." This Question Is
one to which 1 think a little more se?
rious thought should he given. Of
course. If there Is a law applying to
unrh Incidents, which are rare. Indeed,
the police should enforce the law,
for such Is their duty, bist what
snail we say of the law? Isn't It
aheut time that such relic cf me
leval bigotry be repudiated and re?
pealed? Such laws are certainly out
c< keeping with our modern Ideas of
. Justice and liberty as, witness the al?
most ?.?>tal disregard of the city or
' dtnance closing the stores on Sun
) dar. If one-half of the voters who
disregard that law, thereby showing
their utter lack of sympathy for any
I such prohibition, would vote as they
act and as they really feel, such laws
? would not remain on the statute
' hook longer than the time necessary
to repeal them.
Stich laws do not make Sunday any
more sacred nor any Individual any
, more moral, while they violate the
most elementary principles of Justice,
liberty and equality, and are a dl
fm I violation of the United States
! constitution. They smack loudly of
I?th century intolerance, of which. In
fat t. they are about the last vestige.
Very truly,
j. R. kino.

Lynchburg, Feb. 12.?Mr. John a.
Mcl^eod. who was doing a small mer?
cantile business in South Lynchburg
lost his storehouse and goods, as
well as his dwelling and all of his
household effects, by fire last Sunday
morning between 1 and 2 o'clock.
He and his son, who were s'eeplng
in the rear end of the building, had
very narrow escapee. The building
was partially Insured. How and when
the tire originated no one knows.
An old storehouse containing a
quantity of cotton sued In an adjoin?
ing lot was also destroyed. There
was no insurance on the latter.
Col. J. A. Rhame. after several days
illnesH. Is reported convalescing. But
for the skill of Dr. J. W. Tarrunt his
condition would doubtless have been
vory serious.
The aecond spell of* snow, as did
the first some two weeks age, took
everybody by surprise. The snow is
today melting rapidly. In this sec?
tion it averaged about 12 inches in
dopth?heavier than the tirst. The
'?< ilingH In some of the dwellings were
hadly damaged.
Mr. W. T. Mr Lend has sold his
store building with the entire stock
of goods to Mr. S. C. Kllpatrlck, who
In the trade sold nearly all of his real
estate to Mr. McLeod. The latter will
resume his old business as traveling
salesman again.
nid Mr. H. V. McLeod Is still con
I
An d to his room. His extreme age is
very much against his recovery. He
is between NO and 90 years old.

mediately upon the formation of a

and Chin Chin Tao, republican finance
minister.

I
Blshopvllle, Feb. 14.?it appears J
that the A. C, L. people have been
Informed Of the intentions of the
Seaboard people for they havo been
collecting BUppllei and assembling ,
workmen at this point for the last
three days and have commenced put- I
ting down side tracks across the
propoeed crossing of the Seaboard. It i
i
ie understood that it is their inten- J
tion to place as many as four tracks 1
across the line and to keep cars i
standing on the point of the proposed 1
crossing continually.
It is also understood that there is
no lnw governing in casoe of one rail?
road crossing another. Our commu?
nity is vividly excited over the pros?
pect of civil war when the 55eaboard
people bring up their forces. Seriously
though, this state of affairs is ab?
surdly ridiculous and an end should
be mado of it by legislative enact?
ment, and if Sumtor ever expects to
enjoy the benenits which flow from
railroad competition, it should come
to the rescue In this crisis.

Hello Of Maine to bo Brought Here
?Extension on Hotel Sumtes
Building.
The City Fathers met Tuesday in
their regular semi-monthly session,
but all the Fathers wero not
present at the meeting, Messrs. Mc
Laurin, Booth, Hhamo and Glenn be?
ing absent, thus leaving only a iuo
rum present to transact whatever
business came up. '
I
The first matter that came up was
a statement from Mr. Geo. D. Shore
to the effect that ho had seen in the
papers that relics of the United States j
Battleship Maine would be given
away to municipalities upon request.
He had communicated with Con- j
gressman Lever asking that some
relic, preferably one of the small
guns stationed on tho ship, he sant
here to bo placod on tho Federal
building grounds.
He stated that he would like
to have Council send in this request j
to Mr. Lever through the clerk as
coming from thorn. Council after
hearing Mr. Shore's statement parsed
a resolution to tho effect that the
clerk wrlto to Mr. Lever asking that
such a rello be sent here and that
provision be made when it came to
have It suitably mounted.
The report on the water works was
read and received as information, af?
ter which a number of bills were
passed upon and tho minutes of pre?
vious meeting read and approved.
Vir. Hurst stated that the request
sent to tho city attorney, asking
whether the city was legally bound
to pay for damages received by Dr.
Blrnle when his buggy was overturn?
ed last fall by running upon a bank
of earth thrown out in the street, had
been returned without information. (
Mr. Jennings stated that if Mr.
Rtraua* refused to act as city attor?
ney, Council would olther havo to
get legal advice from some other
source or learn tho facts and act on
the matter for Itself. Council then
took up the matter and decided that
as the dirt had been in the street
for some time and Dr. Blrnle was ac?
quainted with the fact that it was
there, tho request for damages be re?
fused.
Mr. E. P. Pitts, a cotton seed buyer
in this city, asked for a rebate on his
license paid In 1910. Council re?
fused tho request as it had refused
other rebates at that timo and would
not go back further than 1911 to give
rebates. Mr. Cuttino and Mr. Wright
voted to grant tha rebate, as they
d'd not see tho difference between
this request and other requests which
had been granted.
Mr. L. E. Wood asked for a rebate
on his license as a lawyer on the
ground that ho was not in the city
for mor i than three months in the
year and took up law only as a side
issue to his work as court stenograph?
er. No action was taken on this re
| quest, but it was decided to appoint
Wednesday of next week for hear?
ing of a large number of attorneys
in the city who requested stich hear?
ing on the ground that the license for
lawyers was not legal in that it was
not graduated according to law.
I A request for a rebate on license
made by Mr. Bultman was refused,
while one from Bristow Ford, on an
additional haek. was granted.
Mr. C. S. Anderson thought that
the license required of him was ex?
cessive and he asked Council to re?
duce It as tile business done b re by
him was not commensurate with the
I license fee. After discussing the mat?
ter it was decided that Mr. Anderson
came under tho head of "drummers"
and was not liable to pay license
fee.
Mr. Jennings read the contract
which he had drawn up to b<> ?ub
mltted to the a. c. Ii. Railroad offi?
cials in place of the contract sub?
mitted by them, in Which several
measurements wero Incorrect ami
which was not drawn up Recording
to the terms previously agreed upon
by the city. There was some talk
of postponing action on this measure,
as several members of council were
abs( m. but after- some dls< usslon the
contract was agr< ed upon and the
Mayor and rlerk were authorized to
submit it to the railroad ? fllcials.
! The next matter to receiv consid?
eration w;,k-- the ro-leaslng of the
quarters now occupied by the First
National Hank. Mr. McKelver moved
thai ttie request ? ? lease the quarter

i for the next ?'ouncil
j Cuttino moved that
j postpom .1 f >r aclio
{r? fi ll meeting of I
? tion was taken.
Mr. Cuttlno made a report of the
i expi rtaei incurred by t'apu Finn in
his trips to Asheville and A:;tb rson
to Investigate the conditions of the
i fire apparatus for Balg I I those
places. The bills were ordered paid.
: Uo then went on and made ;t .state?
ment of what apparatus was in the
lire d"prirtment house and which be?
longed to the city and which to the
Mor.aghan Hose Company. He furth
; or. in a -tatement made by Mr. Finn,
stated whet changes was needed at
the fire department h?>u::e. This re
! port was received as information.
Mr. Cuttlno lIso a.sked for ir.forma
| tion as to What hills were paid by the
I tire department and which by the
city. Mr. H. E. Wilder, chief of the
j fire department, stated that Capt.
Finn had ordered certain articles and
1 he had refined the bill, as a repre
j sentatlve of the citv had ordered the
j things and they bad not passed
I through his hands. As he was secre
: t try of Monaghan Hose Company,
which was conducting th? fire de?
partment under an annual appropri?
ation, he did not see his way clear to
, pay out of this appropriataion for
those things ordered by the city's
I represonttive. Mr. Wilder made a
' clear and concise statement of the
situation which was heard with at?
tention by the riembers of council.
At this point council branched off
into a discussion of the purchase of
the apparatus belonging to the Mon
aghan Hose Company. Mr. Wilder
stated that he thought that the mem?
bers of the company wculd be glad to
sell out to the city and the fire com?
mittee was appointed to deal with
the Monaghan Hose Company with
this end in view.
The general opinion of council
seemed to be that action had been
taken without giving the chief due
consideration. Mr. Cuttlno stated
that this was partly his fault and he
was now asking for information on
this very point. He stated that here?
after nothing would be purchased ex?
cept through the orders of the chief.
Mr. Cuttlno stated that the public
works committee had been in the
habit of taking hose out of the fire
department house when they needed
such for cleaning the streets. He
stat d that this should not be allow?
ed and would not be in the future.
Mr. Cuttino stated that the doors
at the tire house needed to be chang?
ed and the matter was referred to the
lire committee to investigate and re?
port.
He also stated that the fire alarm
was always cut off during shows at
the Academy of Music, and there was
serious danger of fires spreading at
this time as the firemen would not
know of the fires if the alarm did not
ring. It was decided, however, that
the sounding of thet fire alarm, dur?
ing a performance at the Academy of
Music would be dangerous to life and
no change was made.
Dr. China asked that council alloff
him to build an extension on the Ho?
tel Sumter building to be used as a
kitchen. He stated that he had rent?
ed the building to Messrs. Tweed and
McKeal and that ho wished to re
liove the present congestion In the
building. He stated that the ad?
dition would not increase the fire risks
to neighboring property and would
make conditions at the hotel very
much more convenient and desirable,
His request was granted.
Mr. R. E. Wilder, chief of the fire
department, recommended the repair
of the fire escape on the Academy of
Music and the matter was referred to
the proper committee to be attended
to at once.
Mr. Wright read the police report
for the month of January. He then
stated that he had told Chief Rrad
ford to instruct property owners to
remove their drains so that they
would not empty the water from the
roofs of the buildings DU the side?
walks. This had been d< ne and he
now wanted further Instructions
along this line. Upon motion of Mr.
j McKeiver it was resolved that all per?
sons hSVlng gutter pipes emptying on
the sidewalks be notified that unless
they had such pipes changed In the
next ten days, according to specifi?
cations from the city engineer they
would be liable to arrest ami line in
