LAST GALL FOR
LEA60E SALL
ALL TOWNS SEEM TO BE
WILLING TO ENTER THE
PROPOSED LEAGUE
WHAT COBB SAYS
Spartanburg and Greenville Are
.'Rearing lo Go" With Oth
er Towns Also.
If present indications count for
anything there will certainly be
i league base ball in the Piedmont
section of South Carolina and if An
derson wants to have a hand in the
affair it is t'.iere for her and if she]
doesn't tak'j it it will be the fault of
the fans r.nd with them will rest the
blame. Other towns have taken tb
the scheme and last night it seemed,
as though there could be but little |
trouble Tn getting such an organiza
tion on foot.
, Both Greenville and Spartanb?rg
are more than anxious and it goes'
Without" saying that Columbia
and Augusta will be glad to enter
tain any proposition if they fail to
get into the Sally. Therefore ?the
cr.!y two towns in t??? circuit con
cerning which there is any doubt are
Anderson Athens.
Tyrus Raymond Cobb, the Georgia
peach, is quoted by the Augusta pa
pers as saying that "such a league
as the proposed Georgia-Carolina
would be a go."
Ty Cobb, who Knows inst what the
territory is worth as a baseball pros
("?*.?., u?Yuig C?vcfni iv W??i ino Own
ittlo independent club, expressed the
opinion yesterday afternon that the
Georgia-Carolina League will be a
go from the jump. Ty says it is a
compact, ideally located selection of
baseball centers, the territory is good
and the jumps short, and the expense
of auch a league would be a mini
mum. In fact. Cobb says the Geor
gia- Carolina League will be a bet
ter paying proposition than the
Bet'th ?tl?ntk ??aguo, bscsuse of
the fact that the nearness of the
club towns will materially reduce
the travel, as compared with the
South Atlantic.
LEGISLATIVE GRI/ND.
Special Correspondence.
Columbia, Jan. 25.-The coming
week in the general assembly will
probably be signalized by the pas
sags of the Harper compulsory
school attendance bul in tho house
and the Nicholson primary election
reform bill in the senate. The
house is regarded as being absolutely
certain to-pass the.compulsory school
attendance bill, while the passage of
the primary reform bill in the senate
I is a matter of conjecture, its friends
believe it will go through with ease.
In recognition of its paramount
importance, the house took the Har
per bill up out of its order last week
I and made it a special order for next
Tuesday when debate on the bill will
be opene l. There is nothing harsh
nr rnnrxjntriVv' uhniif ?ho HaThCT ?081
! pulsory schcol .sitendance fii??. It
provides that a majority of the citi
zens of any cit/, town or school dis-,
trict shall flrr.t vote for compulsory
school attendance before its provis-1
lons become effective.
A Leca! Option BUL
Then the bill says that if a major
ity of the citizens declare for a com
pulsory school attendance for white
children between a certain age, who
are not weak in mind or body and
who do not live more than ' 2 miles
from a school house, the parents or
guardians of such children must put
them in the nearest school and keep
them there foi* 12 weeks in each year,
six of which must be. consecutive,
provided of course that the school
term lasts for 12 weeks.
The school trustees of the city or
district voting for compulsory school
attendance are given the right to ex
fruse any child from attending school
I if there is a valid reason for so do
ing, for instance the support, of the
child may be necessary to its widow
ed mother. The bill provides a
small fine for parents or guardians
who do not put their children in
school. The Une is nominal for the
first offense. Increasing with each

the present State Hospital for the
Insano and the transfer of the plant
to State Park, lt ia probable that
the consideration of this bill will be,
deferred until after the report of the
spacial legislative committee to be
appointed to investigate the man
agement of the State Hospital for
the Insane.
The house. and senate agreed to
order the investigation of the State
Hospital following the receipt of a
special message from -the governor j
in regard to a leiUsr . written by Sen- j
ator Tillman to "a gentleman high
In official life in his State" alleging
that -the .senator had been informed
thai an effort would be made to
oust Dr. Babcock from the State
Hospital in order that the present
administration might manipulate the
I sale, of the State Hospital and the
i transfer of the plant to State Park.
'The letter, admitted by Senator Till
i man to have been written by him,
! says further, "An effort will be made
1 to smirch Dr. Babcock and his lady
1 assistant, Dr. Saunders, as these
Then must have .some .excuse, you
know, and are not at all scrupulous."
I The name- of the man to whom this
i personal letter was written by Sena
! tor Tillman has not been made pub
lic ncr has the governor said pub
I hely how it came into his possession.
Stevenson Resolution. <
Following tho reading of the mes
! sage from tba. governor in the house,
j Mr. Stevenson introduced a resolu
' tion providing for an investigation
"of the matters relating to the State j
Hospital for the Insane referred to !
in the governor's message, and any
other matters concerning the man
agement of the same and the wel
fare of ita unfortunate inmates and
the conduct of thc State Hospital
Commission and all officers, regents
and employees of the said institu
tion, and of the property known as
SUte Park."
This resolution along the lines
recommended by the governor-in his
message, passed the house without
opposition. In the senate, however,
nOthough the governor had recom
mended an investigation, his friends
opposed the'passage of the resolu
tion from the house carrying out the
governor's exprosed wishes. A good
I deal, of comment has been caused in
legislative circles by the refusal of
thc governors supporters in the sen
ate to stand by him on the matter of
investigating the ' State Hospital.
As yet no one has advanced a satis
factory explanation of their attitude.
Tue'members of the committee of
six, three senators and three repre
sentatives, to investigate the State
Hospital, have -not been announced.
They are to be appointed by the
I speaker of the house and the presi
I dent of the senate. The person el of
; the announcement of the investigat
lng committee, walch is to report to
I the present general assembly, is be
ing awaited with interest.
A Heavy Program.
Aside from actual legislation, the
general assembly has a heavy pro
gram ahead of it for. this week.
