for a term of year. It appear that
Governor Ruttell, Ja hi , utual secret

taked the Governor his reasons. To one

newspaper men ever set foot In the exec

In South Carolina it is as unlawful to
eod a challenge or carry a challenge for
a friend as it Is lo fight a duel. The reg
ular prescribed oath which all person
take on rolnr Into office contains a
clan dating that they have not fought
duel, tent or carried s challenge lnc

law wai pawed. Even if a man (boold
