State house officials are pet- j,-r ting their annual reports for sub mission to tnat nooy, many ?>i m?< p]( officers having finished the reports su and turned them over to the printer. Governor Blease has dictated his annual message, and it is now being transcribed and will be in printed 1 las form by the time the day for the law- ' ac makers to gather arrive. Col. John ar K. A till, the private secretary, has in| charge of the work oT transcribing at< the governor's annual message, and lat he will soon have it completed. ini Mr. W. P.

J1" There will be six new faces in the lower house, deaths and resignations having brought about the change. ov The vacancy in Richland county jJO caused by the death of George R.ljjp Rembert will be filled at. an election tr. early in January, and the one from jn| Marion county is to be filled at an on "lection this month. The full mem- fa| bcrship of 124 In the house and 4 4 in ro, the senate will be present when the WJ second Tuesday in January rolls en around. W1 Lieutenant Governor Chas. A. | Smith and Speaker M. L. Smith will, for the last time, wield the gavels. jPf Both of the presiding officers are can- f., didates for governor, and when the j,,', session of 1B1 4 is brought to a close ro they will give up the places they wj have occupied for several years. ,jp Both branches of the legislature ,n will he called to order at noon on Tuesday.

It Is not eral ass< ought that there will be any serious run for position to his candidacy, and that ernor. ly one ballot will be nceessarv to the sena elect him to the position of insur- political ce commissioner for another four BLEA ars. IVIanv Two of the circuit judges' terms . , } olllce expire and their re-election, K,,nor.,i licli is a foregone conclusion, will (n a mere formality. Should one of ' k , present circuit judges be elected . , the supreme bench an additional 1 cult jmlge will have to be chosen. vftlira , lends of Circuit Judges Cleorge W. .1' ige of Chester and J.

Whether the Charleston Otln terests can get together and agree ,>rp(l ?bl this matter will likely decide the ' U. C. 1 te of the bill.
