Mr. August Kohn, writing from Columbia to the Charleston News and Courier, says: "Some idea of the manner in which legislation is rushed in the last hours of the session and how wonderful it is that more errors do not creep into the Acts may be had when it is stated that, out of the 240 Acts; and resolu tions adopted, 50 acts went to the en grossing department after 4 o'clock Saturday afternoon, and in this num ber were the appropriatio *bill, the supply bill, the fertilizer act, and the 2nd circuit bill and other long and much amended laus." It is indeed, as Mr. Kohn says, a wonder that more errors do not creep into the Acts that are passed in such a hurried and slipshod manner. Nine-tenths of those Acts that went to the engrossing department after 4 o'clock of the last day of the session should have been finished and out of the way two weeks before. There is no certainty that the Acts, as they were finally written out by the angrossing clerks, some of whom are not over competent, were in the shape that they wete intended to be passed. And for that matter it is not at all cer tain that as many as half a dozen Inembersof the legislature understood clearly the full intent and shape of the Acts when they were finally ordered engrossed for ratification. Passing Acts in this manner is NV tie short of criminal neglect of duty. Anderson Daily Mail. THE TOWN WITH A FUTURE. There are a number of towns in this state that offer most inviting fields for investmtnt of capital and the outside world is certainly and almost suddenly being awakened to the opportunities here ofluored. Home people may not realize their shortcomings just as they often over look advantages, but the observant stranger, the man who is seeking a home, sizes up a community in a short while. The "dead ones". are easily distinguished. Enterprising men do not look at the amount of money a community has nor the number of houses or even the inectories. They examine the spirit of the community. Do the people believe in themselves? Are they living advertisements for or against thier town? It may seem a trivial matter, and yet the unanimity of purpose, this elbow touch and the public sentiment -towebds progress development mean more thgn money in judging the future of a tdwn.
