There are a lot of Reasons why
you Should Drink Pepsi Cola
1st, because there is not a more reliable, re
freshing and cooling drink sold; none that will
drive awa3' fatigue more thoroughly.
2nd, because the regular use of Pepsi Cola
does not in any way hinder or counteract the
work of digestion, but aids the digestive organs
wonderfully.
3rd, because Pepsi Cola is free from intoxi
eating or. any poisonous substances.

AHI WAGT BILL
RUFUS FANT, JR., MEMBER
OF HOUSE DISCUSSES
LANEY-ODOM ACT
VOTED AGAINST IT
And Gives His Reasons for So Do?
ing-Some Thought Action
Waa Political Suicide.
Mr. Huf us Fant, Jr., member of
the Anderson county delegation has
issued a statement given below in
regard to the position he took on the
Laney-Odom anti-compact bill when
it was up in the house of represen
tatives. Mr. Fant voted against the
bill and tells his remous for so do
ing.
Although Mr. Fant lias not officiai
ly announced that he will be a can
didato for re-election, it is generally
understood that he will.
His discussion of the Laney-Odom
bill follows:
April 22, 191G.
Editor of The Intelligencer:
Please allow me a little Bpaco in
in your paper in ordnr to make a
statement as lo tho position that 1
took: on the Laney-Odom anti-com
pact bill. There has been so much
said in regard to Ibis bill, that it. is
with reluctance that I writo this;
but on the other hand, I feel that
lt ls due me and due my constituents
that I Vaake a statement."
Unfortunately.. the v Laney-Odom
bill came up in the house towards
tho end of the session, at a time when
all of the members were tired and
anxious to get back home to their
family and business. Yet, in spite
of this, the bill WSB fought harder
and with more determination than
any bill before tho hous? during the
cession. Th? fight was started
while the bill was in thc insurance
committeo. It was feared that thc
committee would report tho bill un
favorable, consequently lt . was
snatched out of their hands and sent
to another committee. Finally, af
ter listening to speeches, arguments
and discussions of the bill from ev
ery point of view, and after consid
ering over ninety amendments, ' the
house passed tho bill by a two-thlrdt
majority at four a. m., a few days
before wo adjourned. .?
Thc proponents of tho bill all?gea
that tho insurance conipnnics during
business in outstate wore guilty ot
esrwplracy, 'that they, had agrood.-up-..
on ratet;. .that wer? too high, unfair
and unjust: ;JThat tho--insurance corni*
panics in their greed f?r tho " al
mighty dollar, disregarding the right
?nd the wrong, were robbing tho
peoplo of the Btate of outh Carolina.
They contended that this bill would
put all of the companies on a com
petitive basis', In consequence pf
which flro Insurance rates would be
cheaper. That this highway robbery
would cease, ami the'peoplo of Soutli
Carolina would be protected against
these corporations, that were taking
tho bread and. meat from their
mouths.
They offered practically nothing to
provo their .statements, and - to me
it seemed that their contentions
were based solely on suppositions and
prejudice..
The opponents of the bill argoed
that it was very expensive to op
erate and maintain a rating bureau,
and that if each ^company was com
nelle J to do this, their expenses
wonlu be moro, and naturally their
rates would increase. In support of
this contention, they showed Uiat tn
1899 tho general assembly passed an
>.nti-compact bill, and that the same
was repealed in 1902. That Senator
Mauldln. the man -who Introduced the
bill, Introduced the H>ill to repeal the
law, claiming that lt had not accom
plished ifs purpose. They-showed
that the? ave ra ge rate of fire insur
ance during the years that the anti
compact law was on our statutes, was
higher than the average before . the
passage of the bill, and higher than
average rate since lt has been re
pealed. They? argued that there
were about twenty states that liad an
anti-compact law (br. which are not
aa drastic SB the ono in . question)
and only one of those states had ?
lower rate,of Insurance thairwe had.
They arguued that some .irisurahcb
companies'operating 1.nour state did
not belong to the Southeastern Tar
iff association, and . that their rates
were about the same as the rates of
the companies that wore members of
the association. They begged ' ?the
propon onto of tho hill to ehow^here
.tho rates were unjust and unfair,.
the/ bagged them to prove some ot
their -contentions. 'it was further ar- j
gucci that some of- tho companies ;
might-withdraw ftom tt.? sfc?te, but
this waa laughed at.' ' ,
In view; et these, circumstances, I
.did what. V thoagh waa right. Just
and best for this i>eople of South Car
olina; > , I-' voted ?gainst, the hill. To
vote against th* hill tria considered
by Borao in the house as bad political
move, abd that to do euch would
surely defeat a person at the next
election. I have no doubt, tthat had
it not been for thia, the' bill would
have not received,tho vote lt did .'re
ceive.--. I - remember, distinctly ; - tl? Rt
when I voted some oso noar mc said,
?Well jon are' gone tate summer..*:
Angry hy ih*~ Insinuation thatv T
would for one mSmrto. let my polltl
oat ambition interfere with' my ?con
v?cUonsy I oald, "To the devil with
this summer, I am cot going against
my own convictions.",
